The Daily Kansan aims to picture the future of Kansas by going further than merely printing the new agenda based on her own fears; no freeies; to be clean; to be cheerful; to be charitable; to be kind; to solve problems to water issues; in all, to serve the best of its ability the students of the state.
FRIDAY, OCTOBER 9, 1915.
What can't be cured
Were best endured—Seneca.
THE KANSAN ASKS A FAVOR.
Today the Daily Kansan is sending to all members of the faculty a postal card with the request that its recipient write his name and office hours on it, and return it to the Daily Kansan. A list will be published as soon as possible, and will be a big help to students who do not know when or where to find their instructors outside of class.
The Daily Kansan urges all members of the faculty to comply with the request on the postal card as soon as possible.
POOR ECONOMY.
The library stacks are closed on Saturdays and at night, the time when the great majority of students want them open.
It is a poor way to economize.
This is because the library is not provided with enough money to pay the help necessary when the stacks are open.
DORMITORIES.
Many of us have a deplorable habit of getting our ideas ready-made, from books. This is unfortunate, even in the case of perfectly good books, like "When Patty Went to College." For example, every girl who ever reads this book, and most girls do, pictures a dormitory as a place of rules and regulations; rising bells and strict surveillance; where the greatest pleasure and most sacred duty of the fortunate prisoner is to evade as many rules as possible. The true inwardness of dormitory life never appears in literature.
For this reason, young women at the University of Kansas would probably be surprised and incredulous if they were told that in dormitories they would enjoy more freedom than they do now. They have no idea of the broader social life and the increased opportunities for enjoyment which are fostered by dormitory life. In a dormitory, for instance, no girl ever has to stay at home from any social function or entertainment, as many do here, because the other girls in the house don't want to go, or have dates, and she has no one to go with, since it is always possible to get up a party to go anywhere, any time. This is merely one of many ways in which life in a dormitory is more pleasant than life in a rooming house.
If the women students of the University of Kansas had any adequate conception of the advantages of dormitories, they would get back of the movement to provide such advantages here. Alumnae, club women, and many individuals all over the state, are working toward that end, but the students themselves are the ones who should be pulling the hardest.
And they would be, if they knew what it would mean to them.
An excellent example of the freshman honor sentiment: 80 football suits have been checked out at the gym, while only 30 men are appearing on the field. The other 50 will not escape their gym work by the subterfuge, athletic authorities have announced.
The engineers are to be congratulated on their spirit. Their mixer Wednesday night was the most successful in the history of the school. If all students had as much pep in general University affairs as the engineers have in things the engineers are doing, it would be better for the University.
Seven hundred memberships to the Illinois Student Union were subscribed in a single day. Unless the campaign at the University takes on more the aspect of a spiritified effort, it is doubtless if that many will be secured all year.
Just think what a fine parade K. U, will be able to on, now that a fire department is to be organized. The K. N. G., of course, will continue on the job.
Stories are going the rounds about high life at the University, since an aviator flew 600 feet above Mount Oread yesterday.
A news dispatch announces that 400 students are in arms at McGill University. Toronto. Bet they don't have an advisor of women there.
Just why the mid-week date rule should be suspended in deference to the League of Kansas Municipalities is not apparent.
Favorite Yarns of Kansas Professors
Mrs. Eustace Brown, advisor of women tells the following story to prove that it is sometimes rather difficult to give advice.
Seeing a small boy with a slingshot in his hand she said, "Don't you think it is wicked to kill the dear little birds? They want to live just as you do. They sing so sweetly and they eat the worms in the gardens."
The lad looked at her a moment with a virtuous little smile on his face, "Don't you suppose the worm wants to live, too?" he said.
Here is the prize joke of Prof.
Essential faculty of the depar-
ment of sociology.
An old darky who was very devout wanted chicken for his Sunday dinner. He prayed to the Lord in the following manner: "Oh, Lord, send me a chicken." When it was evident that this prayer was not bringing the desired results he changed it to, "Oh, Lord, send me to the chicken."

Sometimes he makes a few motions.
Or just looks around.
THE KANSAS office is a veritable Fagin's Den. Little Oliver himself could not have been more frightened upon first entering the dark retreat of the old Jew than some would-be-reporter upon his first approach into the sacred newspaper domain. Off
THE KANSAN OFFICE
from the rest of the buildings, around a battered old walk, and down some rickety stairs you find a small door. Open this, and you are in the base-level room. You sit at the same time serving for the mysterious precincts of the daily paper.
There is Fagin, bending over his task of sorting, not "wipes," as the story of Dickens goes, but precious articles in the guise of stories. There is a right to his name by checking his time-card, then talking to some fair friend of his instead of finding a prize story. There is Charlie Bates and others of the gang, rushing up to their boss with their valuable gifts. The chief was of all this gloomy retreat ready with his past store of experience to pass judgment on the work of his hopeful proteges.
