The Daily Kaanan aims to picture the university's students to go further than merely print their Kansasan to go further than merely print their Kansasan to go further than merely print their University holds to play no favorites; to be clean; to be cheerful; to be honest; to be serious problems to water hands; in all, to serve to show its ability the students of the University.

CHEERLEADING
The Daily Kansan thinks that a word of explanation should follow the communication of "Two of the Faithful" which appeared in yesterday's Student Opinion Column.
The time of the departure of the team did not apper in the Daily Kansas because the authorities themselves did not know when the team would leave until Friday morning—too late to do any good.
Jo Berwick, the new cheerleader, needs support more than criticism. He successfully led a night shirt parade in a way that met the approval of the merchants, something that has seldom been done before, and he has taken a stand for clean and sportsmanlike cheering at the games.
The reason that the "Thundering Thousand" was not asked to go to the train with the team was because the coaches did not wish a big demonstration.
A CHANCE FOR THE WOMEN.
"Two of the Faithful" and every loyal K. U. student, and that means everybody in the school, will have ample opportunity to participate in demonstrations this week, on the eve of the Aggie game, and still more opportunity when the more ancient enemies of the Jayhawk invade Lawrence later in the season.
The suggestion that the women of the University be given an opportunity to display their spirit at the Argyle game is a good one.
If it is to be put into effect it should receive the immediate consideration of the W. S. G. A.
Women are not given enough opportunity to show their spirit. Here is a chance.
Perhaps the women should not parade downtown as Mrs. Eustace Brown suggests. They could parade to McCook, put on a drill, and form a cheering section. The women of Drake cooperate effectively with the men.
But "suggestions" won't accomplish anything. It will take some definite organization, some real work, and not more talk. Sorority houses and organized rooming houses should prove a good base of operations.
GOOD WORK
Freshmen girls are to be congratulated on the enthusiastic spirit with which they have taken up the plan of organizing themselves as a class.
STUDENT BUILDING NEEDED
This is the first time there has been any attempt by University of Kansas girls to organize themselves according to classes in an attempt to get better acquainted with each other and the Kansan wishes to be among the first to wish them success.
As student activities increase, proportionately increases the need for a student building, where men and women can hold their mixers, class
meetings, club and society meetings,
debates, banquets, parties, and a
score of other things now poorly
provided for if not entirely left out.
Men students have set forth their needs repeatedly in their campaigns for a Union, but the women's side has never been presented. As things are now, the women must use the gymnasium for everything, and this results in discommoding the gym classes, or being disturbed by them. Nor is it students alone who suffer from this arrangement, as anyone can testify who attended the convention of the municipal league and had to sit directly under a game of basketball. The gym was intended primarily for such things as basketball, and is eminently unsuited to many of the functions it is called on to perform.
For instance, both the Y. M. C. A. and the Y. W. C. A. were put to an expense of $50 for hauling tables, chairs, and dishes to the gym for their recent banquets. One hundred dollars was wasted in unproductive labor. Incidentally, the Y. W. banquet was almost broken up by the little tin soldiers drilling overhead. But the soldiers must drill, and the gym is the only place they have.
Then there is the matter of dancing. Not only the girls' Saturday afternoon dances, but the Prom and the Hop as well, must be given in the gymnasium, and everybody knows only too well the drawbacks and inconveniences suffered on such occasions. Where the same floor must be used for dances and for basketball, one or the other must suffer.
This list could be extended indefinitely, but the instances cited should convince anyone that we need a student building and need it badly.
It is generally conceded that the social life at a college or university is quite as important a part of education as the curriculum. Student buildings facilitate, broaden, and democratize social life as no other one thing can do. K. U. cannot afford to be without one, and the sooner the students begin boosting for a building, the sooner they will get it.
Sometimes, perhaps, a budding headwriter on the Daily Kansan will believe and startle long-suffering subscribers by omitting the phrase "passing out the plums" from stories that all of committee appointments.
Two hundred freshmen set the upperclassmen an excellent example by joining the Student Union Thursday night. The beginning was good for the 1000 members the Council is trying to get
Rev. E. R. Bachus, of the Unitarian church, told the Y. M. C. A. that wild oats sown in youth leave their mark. Bachus should speak with authority.
Kansas university instructors have made the discovery that the average freshman knows no rhetoric. Which, observes the Topeka State Journal, is the same discovery the city editor usually makes about the college graduate. That is, the cappetizer professor draws from the work of the average newspaper man—Salina Journal.
A headline announces that other states want Kansas teachers. There are several that can be spared.
Prof. Erasmus Haworth of Lawrence has had a newly discovered rock named for him, but he can hardly hope that it will become as renowned as that of the late Professor Macadam—K. C. Star.
(From Collier's Weekly)
These are but a few scattered examples of the many other activities of the University of Kansas, as I noted them during the course of an afternoon and evening spent there. For me the visit was an education. I wish that all Americans might visit such a university. But more than that, I would be devised for the exchange of students between great colleges in dif-

rent part of the country. Doubtless it would be a good thing for certain students at Western colleges to learn something of the more elaborate life and the greater sophistication of the great colleges of the East, but more particularly I think that vast benefits might accrue to certain men from Harvard, Yale, and similar institutions; to certain women as that of Kansas. Unfortunately, however, the Eastern students, who would be most benefited by such a shift, would be the very ones to oppose it. Above all others, I should like to see young Eastern aristocrats, spenders, and disciples of false culture shipped out to the West. It would do them good, and I think they would be amazed to find out how much they liked it. However, this idea is not as useful so soon on the theory that it would help the individual student as on the theory that greater mutual comprehension is needed by Americans. We do not know our country or our fellow countrymen as we should.

The following classified ad from the London Times throws an interesting sidelight on the war in Europe. "Lady Bower is willing to look after a soldier's dog while he is away; a mongrel preferred, as it is so hard to get them home," she adds.

"A Collect for Club Women" is the title of a dainty bit of prose verse which has just been published from the pen of Miss Mary Stewart, dean of women at the University of Montana. It is:
With practically all of Europe involved in war America should have held a rousing celebration on October 12 in honor of Columbus.
"Keep us, O God, from pettiness; let us be large in thought, in word, in deed. Let us be done with faultfinding and leave off self seeking. May we put away all pretense and meet each other, face to face—without self judgment. May we never be hasty in judgment and always generous. Let us take time for all things; make us to grow calm, serene, gentle. Teach us to put into action our better impulses, straightforward and unafraid. Grant that we may realize it is the little things that create differences; that in the big things of life we are an adult, and know the great, common woman's-heart of us all, and. O Lord God, let us not forget to be kind!"
