Phone, Bell K. U. 25 Address all communications to UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN Lawrence, Kansas,
The Daily Kaman aims to picture the everyday life of a Kenyan to go further than merely printing your name on a paper with no favories; to be clean; to be cheerful; to be charitable; to be kind; to be helpful; to solve problems to widen his in all, to serve the best of his ability the students of the school.
TUESDAY, OCTOBER 27,1914.
GIVE US LIGHT!
Many visiting mothers have complained that the street lights of Lawrence are turned off entirely too early. In numerous towns over the state, many of them smaller than Lawrence, the lights go all night, and it seems absurd that here, where there is such a large body of young people who are out late two nights in the week, the streets should be dark at twelve-thirty.
Everybody knows that plenty of light is a strong deterrence to the would-be hold-up man and to various other offenders against law and order. The more lights a city has, the fewer policemen it needs. Certainly if our city is not going to provide any larger police force than it has at present, it might at least let us have lights to go home by.
FACULTY COMRADESHIP
The Daily Kansan has printed the hours at which faculty members may be found in their offices to consult with students. This means that every professor on the Hill is willing to give part of his time each day to students. Are you taking advantage of it?
If you're having trouble with your studies or want advice, go to your faculty advisor, or any other member of the faculty. He will be glad to see you.
A senior remarked the other day that he didn't know a single professor on the Hill well enough to speak to him except those under whom he had classes. This is not as it should be. The faculty should be a great influence in the life of every student. Most of them want to be, and are eager to learn how they can be of help.
MONEY COMES SLOWLY
A little more than 100 dollars contributed to the . University Red Cross fund in a week. Truly a pittable showing for 2500 students and 200 faculty members.
If the University, and the instruction it gives, does not give anything more than a trained mind, there is something sadly lacking. It is not a college man's brain that makes him stand out.
A University man, a college-traineden man, should be the first to take a forward step in any humanitarian movement. Education and service go hand in hand. A college man should be able to realize, to understand, to have a conception of the awful trage-dy being enacted in Europe, and realize the dire need for assistance, and realize it forcibly.
EXCHANGING IDEAS
The Daily Kansan is very much pleased with the numerous communications that have come in during the last few days.
It makes the column what it should be, a clearing house for student ideas. The liberal exchange of opinion is healthful, and leads to reform. It is worthy of note that the communications have been for the common weal, rather than the airing of personal grievances.
The senior play management is taking an excellent step in eliminating all but seniors from the senior play. In other years there have sometimes been more underclassmen than seniors in the cast.
Speaking of class memorials, a drinking fountain without good water would be almost as useful as a saddle without a horse.

Narcotics are sometimes used to induce sleep, but a freshman engineer has evolved a better method. When he crawls in bed he takes a trigonometry with him, and begins to study. Sleep comes on almost immediately.
Another method is also used with success. Several students have beer-cured in insomnia by repeating softly themselves: "I'm in a one-thirty class."

VOCATIONS FOR WOMEN
Of all the professions open to women, there is perhaps none more peculiarly suited to them than that of nursing. In the minds of many, it ranks as the very highest type of human service. The work is not to be undertaken lightly, since it demands long and arduous preparation a peculiarly trying apprenticeship and strong character. It simply cannot be done by people who have not great endurance, are tired of doing what they are not motivated by courageous spirit. However, one who is fitted for the work and has learned to do it, finds a great joy in it. The remuneration is sufficient to attract women of ability. The graduate nurse can always get $25 a week, and often more, besides her living expenses.
NURSING
The recent great development of public service in many new ways has brought into existence the so-called Public Health Nurse, who is employed on salary, generally by a municipality, and who works chiefly along preventive lines. In some states nurses are employed in the public schools, and right here in Lawrence we have a visiting nurse who was learned through the Local Service Learning. Her work is clearly defined and definite, and is more regular and less difficult than general nursing such work is recognized as one of the highest types, if not the highest type of public service.
For several years the University of Kansas has been training nurses in the Bell Memorial Hospital at Rosedale. The course is completed in two and a half years, besides three months probation. Kansas young women between the ages of twenty and thirty are eligible, preference being given to high school graduates. Can students in college are placed a waiting list, and whenever vacancies occur, they are filled from this list. The course extends from October 1st to June 1st, but vacancies may be filled at any time.
In all seriousness, it was too bad that everyone could not wait till the concert was over before botting for the door—to the great annoyance of the band men as well as to the chap man. It was also because the National Air deserves as much consideration as we love to pay to the "Crimson and the Blue."
Among military men—and the practice is by no means limited to military circles—is cherished the reverent custom of "standing retreat" when the National Air is being played in public.
Application for admittance should be made to the Superintendent of the Bell Memorial Hospital, Rosedale Kansas, and must be accompanied by letters from the applicant's instructor, pastor, and physician, testifying as to her educational qualifications. character and health.
Will the dear students never come to realize that it is selfishness in its most acute and offensive stage that allows some of them to attend a concert such as was our privilege last Thursday and whisper or talk in a monotone so as to spoil the enjoyment of others than in a frivolous conversation?
WAS IT CARELESSNESS?
With what surprise, then—not unmixed with indignation—did some of the loving sons and daughters of our great republic witness the action a few of our thoughtless folk at the concert given by the Marine Band last Thursday during the playing of the National Air, while all loyal children of the State stood, respectfully, in front of it; was some of our beloved faculty members, too, who led the "Retreat" with an arder and enthusiasm worthy of a better cause, until the "Retreat" bade fail to become a "Rout."
OR SELFISHNESS?
The student body as a whole did enjoy and appreciate the two concerts, but some would have been still better pleased had the annoyance from the source mentioned above been eliminated.
Traffic Investigation
To the Lawrence Street Railway Co., and the Commissioners of Lawrence, Kansas
Lawrence, Kansas, Oct. 13, 1914.
Gentlemen:—
Monday, October 5th, at 7 a.m. I took car No. 128, running from Breezedale to Woodland Park, and remained on this car until 9 p.m.
October 6th, I took the car running from K. U. to Massachusetts street, at 7 a.m., and remained on until 9 p.m. From information gathered on these two trips, I will make my report to the public as follows:—
1st.—I noticed passengers leaving the car were often in danger of being run over by automobiles, as some of the drivers of these cars pass entirely too close to the street car, and do not give any signal whatever.
2nd.—there are a great number of passen; Fop, who, after getting off the car, pass distably in front of the car from which for the alight, thereby causing delay, and in making danger for themselves from passing automobiles.
3rd.—A large percent of the passengers who get on the cars bother the motorman for change. Why not have the proper change ready? I even saw some, who I knew had the right change, hand the motorman a dollar for their fare. This making of change takes away a busy motorman's attention from the front.
4th. Many passengers never call for a transfer until they reach the corner where they wish to change cars, and this of course, causes delay, and I would suggest that passengers ask for transfers when entering the cars.
Think of "Safety First." Get the "Safety First" habit.

ABOUT THE UNION University Daily Kansan:
8th.—In conclusion, I will say that I am a friend of the automobile owner and driver myself, but would suggest that a little more caution be exercised in the observance of the laws of our city, eneavoring to make traffic on our streets as safe as possible, and "safety first," our slogan.
I have been following with great interest the progress of the Student Council in obtaining members for the Union.
For awhile I was afraid the Union would pass out of existence because of lack of interest and it is gratifying to see it come back.
The week preceding the Missouri football game will be one continued rally as it has been the past two weeks, and will be larger, more full of pep than ever before, and will do the team more good. They will have a place to organize and these groups of three, four, and five fellows who have here before they could get together will now be organized at the start.
7th. In some places, I noticed rocks on the rail. This was most noticeable on East Lee street. This, of course, is a menace to safe traffic, and should be carefully investigated, and the parties warned of the danger of such thoughtless actions.
6th. I saw a good many automobiles pass the street car, while passengers were alighting from the same, and I am sure that most of them passed not more than four or five feet from the car. I observed ten specific cases which justly deserved reporting, where automobile drivers thoughtlessly took chances which, in some cases, endangered themselves, and in other cases, endangered street car passengers boarding and alighting from cars. The automobile numbers are on file with the city commissioners.
HE HAS COLD FEET
Every man in the University ought to join and help push. Its an organization that the University of Kansas has needed for several years.
Compare the pep this year with that of previous years and you will see how much good the Union is in that respect alone.
5th.—All passengers waiting for a car should stand on the corner nearest to the approaching car which they wish to board. I saw so many waiting on the wrong side of the street, and was pleased to note the patience and courtesy of the motormen in these cases. This causes delay, and hinders in the keeping up of the schedule.
Why not cover the cracks in the bleachers with boards before the next football game? If anyone can suggest a place where the same amount of money expended will bring comfort to more people and secure more heartfelt blessings, to the management let him please come forth!
Why doesn't someone suggest that the north bleachers on McCook Fiel be made a little more nearly air tight? As they are now built the only place Boreas can slide through is on the ground, and no condition is neither conducive to serenity of temper nor to religion pure and undefiled.
