THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 9, 1916. CHANGE THE REEL, HIRAM! The dearth of appropriate K. U. songs and yells was strikingly brought out last Saturday at the Oklahoma game when, apparently at loss for anything timely, the cheerleaders were compelled to fill in with an "Oh, Me, Oh, Mmy, Won't We Twist That Tiger's Tail." That fact that it was the Sooners and not the Tigers who were our opponents at that particular time did not seem to matter. Some yell had to be given, of course, and who should worry whether it was to the point or not? Once upon a time there was a man. There was only one story he could tell. This was about a gun. So when up against it—conversationally speaking—he used to stamp his foot, cock his ear, and remark, "What was that? A gun? Oh, yes, speaking of guns, that reminds me—" etc., etc. FROM ACROSS THE WATERS It has been stated that a dealer declared that there was nothing in a quart of milk. A bacteriologist has overthrown this statement by declaring that there were 267,795,984,325 bacteria in one spoonful. John R. Mott, after returning from the battle lines of Europe said, "My solicitude, as I have come back from Europe, is not primarily for the belligerent countries . . . My greatest solicitude is with reference to the United States of America, lest, in this moment of the world's need, we enter not sufficiently into fellowship with the sufferings and sorrows of the European peoples." No American, not even a college student, knows or can possibly realize the great amount of suffering and sorrow which the people of Europe are now enduring unless he has been across the water during this great conflict. Many women are homeless and are forced to walk the streets. Thousands of little children are now fatherless. There is a scarcity of food for all noncombatants. We, of the University of Kansas, must sacrifice a little in a co-operative effort to bring aid to these weo-streken people in the time of their greatest need by contributing to the Armenian Fund. A word to the wise is sufficient; the foolish will take care of themselves. KNOW K. U. More than 3000 students attend the University of Kansas, but what does the average one know of the University. He is thoroughly familiar with his own department, and may know a little concerning one or two of the others, but the majority are lacking in a general knowledge of the institution. Many a student when asked about any department other than his own admits complete ignorance. How much better it would be if the students were generally informed concerning the whole outline of University work, Prof. A. C. Terrill, of the department of mining and ore-dressing is heartily in favor of familiarizing the student with the University. Professor Terrill suggests the plan of visitation periods, whereby students of one department may visit those of others. Some special feature, or lecture, could be conducted, thus enabling the students to see what the course consisted of. This plan has been successfully carried out in Columbia and many other universities. With a little organization it could be put upon a very systematic basis, and would certainly be beneficial to the students. The most popular student in the next few weeks will be the one who is able to represent to the greatest degree a combination of weight, speed, gridiron experience, and indifference toward hard knocks. CARELESS ASSISTANTS The freedom which is given student assistants to grade papers may prove the downfall of many students. An instance came up with the sending out of the white slips of "warning." A student who had been doing excellent work received one of these slips. Her experience two weeks before in regard to a returned examination paper bearing a low grade prevented her from accepting this report of her work as "final." Upon taking her quiz paper to the head of the department she was informed that the assistant had made a mistake and her grade was increased 20 per cent. Upon taking her slip of warning to the head of the department, she was likewise informed that there had been a mistake, due to the misunderstanding of the student assistant. Such carelessness cannot be condemned too harshly. It means success or failure to the student. Examine your papers and your grades thoroughly. If you find a discrepancy, report it. if a red-headed father had a red-headed son, the Orange and Black is of the opinion that it would be a case of hair-redity.

FUNNY STUFF "Girls Wearin' 'Em Too!" is the caption of an item in the Minnesota Daily and the article discloses the fact that the freshmen girls, as well as the first year men, are to wear green caps. These brave girls should be rewarded by making it unnecessary for them to comply with the moving picture show request "Ladies Kindly Remove Your Hats." Psychology is the funniest subject, You ever heard about, What you think you are, You simply are not. What you think you do. You simply must confess, You don't do at all, 'ts just consciousness.

We are talking to you, College Girl, with the keen intellect and splendid bright eyes. New-thought woman and future wise-mother, why do you dress like you do? You profess a proud disdain for cheap music, and yet you feel your best in ragtime street costume. When you are almost lost in good influence of the sweet taste of a madonna dressed in a garment from your wardrobe, what your own young face might not catch and hold the god-light of her eyes if you were not dressed so uncomfortably tight. And those arches—will they ever be strong enough; do you think that you can plant your whole foot down at the base of a wall? Or it bends to your healthy tread, or must you all your life—even when you are doing the big things out in world—go clicking and toterting along with dick hors on stone pavements? THE COLLEGE GIRL --Columbia (S. C.) State. We are laughing at the silly battle between fascinating, snobbish, dominating fashion and you, pathetic, dizzy, style-chausing College Girl. Yesterday you swathed your chilly throats in yards of wooly scarfs, but today a fashion sends such a warmth coursing through you that artists she the campus gleams with varying lengths of breeze-fanned necks. While you are content today with skirts which at the age of fifteen would have been considered as outgrown, tomorrow a dust catcher may weight the hems of sagging gowns. Hats primarily invented for protection to the head, are continually expanding down, changing up and turning down, changing front slats over the right ear to wind-struck attitudes just back of the pompadours. Patient—“Oh, I just opened my eyes and she was I”-was Yaka. Yaka We can not understand you—we who sit back on the edge of things and watch your ceaseless struggle to keep in style; watch you plaster your pretty soft hair down on your foreheads in little lobes and loops that shine up at one like little pancakes on a white platter; watch you tuning your ear to the rustle of silk petticoats instead of to the wistful cry of the folks who are waiting until you are woman enough to help make the happier, friendlier home. Oh, we are a girl. We're a girl, Girl, and while we look on the colorful panorama as thousands of you pass by, we pray that a little bit of the philosophy you now study may give you a heart-feeling of love of folks and true womanly ideals with which enters the old-fashioned girl who comes to school in a warm wool dress—Kansas State Collegian.

MORE FRESH AIR If students fill their appointments with class instructors, it is only reasonable to expect the professor to fill his contract by making real the contract by making real the conditions under which he can get the best from anyone who knows that fresh air is necessary right kind of attention in a classroom. If a student is asked if there is any place where fresh air is not, he probably will hesitate and say, "Well, we have such things as stuffy classrooms." Students at the University of Kansas are noted for their health. What makes them so healthy? Because they go to school where fresh air shounds* A post-office romance: Friendship, N. Y. Love, Va. Kissimmee, Fla. Ring, Ark. Parson, Ky. Editor of the Kansan; Hence, if any professor expects results, it behooves him to have fresh air in the classrooms. It is unsanitary, to say the least, to have over a hundred people in one room with every window closed. Students will do their best if professors will do their part. Ozone.
