FRIDAY, MARCH 5, 1915. AN EXAMPLE One professor in chemistry who had scheduled a quiz for yesterday called up every member of his class Wednesday night and told them that in view of the Robins meeting in the Gymnasium, which every man of them should attend, the quiz would be postponed. That man had the right spirit. We recommend his action to some of the other faculty members who, not content with refusing to help the campaign, pull back on it by giving quizzes during the five school days the big work is going on. TO THE COMMITTEEMEN John R. Mott and Raymond Robins are great men and have great voices that can affect great audiences. Ne man or woman who hears them is not affected to some extent by their oratory and straight logic. They are the best in their line. They have no equals for moving crowds. But with all their oratory, with all their wonderful logic and appeal, with all their personality, they cannot affect those students who are in motion picture shows downtown, at home away from the room in which they speak. After they have heard either Mott or Robins they will thank you for briking them out. It's up to the committee to get these men. Bring them to a meeting, just one will be enough. They will come to all the rest. VOTE FOR ELECTION GROUPING If you want to do away with that slick-talking person who comes around and pumps you by the right hand and calls you by your first name, and leers at you while he tells you all about the virtues' of this man and that, you should vote for him, vote for the grouping of school elections when it is put up to the students. If you want to break that political boss vote for the grouping. For he is limited. He cannot control any election in which all the voting for the year is done. If all the elections come on one day he will not be able to control one ballot. For he will be watched. The political boss thrives on isolated elections, when he can work along quietly and get his organization perfected because the student body is not interested enough in the one election to watch him. If all the elections come on one day the students will be on their toes, figuratively speaking, and the boss and every movement of the double-crossers will be seen by the watchful voters, and the boss will be a thing of history along with other K. U. undesiribles. Vote for the election grouping. A mistake was made in the pub lishing of an editorial written for the Daily Kansan yesterday by Mrs. Eustace Brown. The sentence which read "Man, her mate has this revelation at first," should have read "Man, her mate, has not this revelation at first hand." In justice to Mrs. Brown, and to the sense of her admirable editorial we make this correction. A CORRECTION VOTE FOR POINT SYSTEM If you want to see the duties of the committees and offers in your organizations better attended to, if you want to see the school honors and responsibilities more equitably distributed, using talent hitherto undeveloped, preventing work on the part of the faithful few, come out and vote for the point system when it is put up to the students. STUDENT OPINION GET THE KEG PARTIES GET THE KEG PARTIES It seems that the Student Council is getting the spirit of the Mott camp officially, and has legislated wisely. It has abolished poker at the University with one fell snoop. Its action will no doubt be commended by the National Federation of Ladies' Societies. Now if the Council wishes to do something that will test the quality of the members' respective spines it will act according to the signs of the season. March comes in like a lion and go out like a dog, but is the "boys" will begin to receive the wet shipments from K.C. and then like little lamps will gambol on the greensworth at night. This is a practice that is annual at the University and the fact should be faced. Why? It was the "boys"? The Council last year did not have the moral courage to face the issue. It can not offer the lame excuse that it can not get the information because the county attorney's books are open to the University authorities. If they are for forgery made the Council can turn the matter over to the Attorney General. The only question is how much moral courage does the Council have and to what ends will it go to clean up the University's back yard? Reformer. JAYHAWKER ELECTION The White Crow Says: The White Crow Says. Intimacy breeds familiarity The innovation started this year of having a junior section of the Jayhawker will doubtless be continued. It seems to offer a means of giving each editor and manager of annuals a regular and gain specific training for their work. It so happened that the managers of its year's junior section were the successful Jayhawker candidates, who have experience will prove invaluable to them. However, if they had been chosen at the time of the general class elections in the fall their training could have been much more complete. Such, then, is the suggestion; namely—that the Jayhawk election take place at the same time as the junior class election in the fall, and that the men then chosen shall be re-editor of the editing of the junior section. 2. They will have an acquaintance with the members of their class, who will make up the majority of the buyers, constitute the chief source of revenue, and form the members of the Annual staff. 1. The editors will have a practical knowledge of the production of the Annual before beginning their senior work. 3. They will have an opportunity to prepare definitively for their offices by taking the various courses benefited from the department offered by the department of journalism. Among the 'improvements' of this method over the former, the follow- ing are: 4. This plan combines all of the elections for class officers into one day in the fall, which is in keeping with a former communication suggesting the combination of all the University election officers and the senior spring election day to be devoted to the choosing of the school officers.

Why don't they try something like "Who is the Greatest Man—Lincoln or Washington?" At the Florida State College for women at a "Safety First—Keep Cool" sign has been posted by the side of all the fire extinguishers. Would it not have been a better idea to paste the sign just above the refrigerator? Chasing the Glooms What has become of the dogmatic professor of international law? It has been suggested that the leaders of the war parties in Europe meet and celebrate All Fool's Day in a body.

How good the world would be if we all lived up to our epitaphs. Now that Mott is to come to the University what will become of the motley? Although it looks dark for K.

Some men are born wise and others come to K. U. Stolen From the Mail Bag I have been going to all these religious meetings, Aunt Sophie. We are having Mott, you know, and over the second of March to the eightth. I have gone to every chapel, every committee meeting, and every speech so far that women are supposed to hear her older girl that I want to tell you about. I don't owe you a letter, I know, but I didn't have half enough time to tell you all I wanted to in my last epistle —hence this unexpected one. Dear Aunt Sophie: Now I reckon this girl is mighty good, and all that, and don't think for a minute that I am criticizing her goodness. I am great, kinder of you than she is, kinder of myself. But what I can't abide is the fact that she seems to want to publish her goodness. Every time I see her, it is just as if she were saying, "Haha, what do you think of the world, even with all the world, even with a shiner like you. God bless you." Aunt Sophie, you know I respect religion and that I am a good Christian and all that, and I never scoff at the real thing. But what I hate is the religious hypocrisy of asking about should have been *St. Cecilia Angelica*. She goes around with an eternal, everlasting smile on her face—so seraphic that it’s a wonder she wasn’t mistaken for an angel-perfect ages ago and scooted up to heaven. You can read below the smile. When you meet this heavenly cherub on the campus, in the library, at church, or even in the picture show (yes, she is human, and goes to the show after she leaves), you’re with this church-window, lily-bearing-maden smile-you know the variety I mean, don’t you? I reckon you are scandalized at my lack of revenge, Auntie, but just remember I am not any worse than other folks—only I always uncover The Little Schoolmaster Says: No two of you college men are of the same dimensions.
