UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN
Lawrence, Kans.
The Daily Kannan aims to picture the understated needs of students to go further than merely printing the news by using non-printing technologies to play no favors; to be clean; to be cheerful; to be charitable; to be helpful; to solve problems to assist heads; in all, to serve the best of his ability the students of the school.
TUESDAY, OCTOBER 6, 1914.
STUDENT GOVT VINDICATED
University authorities are more than pleased with the approbation expressed everywhere for the good conduct in the night shirt parade after the game Saturday.
But what is more important than that is the very apparent attempt on the part of the students to prove to the Chancellor that they are fully capable of self-government, and are to be trusted with responsibility.
The parade was, in a way, a test. Students passed it safely. How much better is the feeling it engenders than the spirit that permeated the student body last year.
Lawlessness, unrest, dissatisfaction, loosely administered rules—these are things of the past, and everyone interested in the University is glad to see them go.
THE RIGHT THING TO DO
This is the time, therefore, for paying your annual fees. You have the money now and if you pay your fee now a month hence you will have bridged the gap caused by the extraction of the six dollars and forgotten it.
All seniors, that is practically all seniores, are aware of the fact that money is more plentiful now than it will be later in the year. Three weeks isn't sufficient for even a student to spend the money which "dad" furnished or which the student himself earned this summer.
The editor of the annual is unable to accomplish much toward the book until he gets some idea of what the Jayhawker resources look like and the individual senior helps materially by adding his six dollars to the resources in question.
THAT COLLEGE DAY.
Plans and arrangements for College Day will be discussed at a College mixer next week.
College Day has never been a success. It started off with a big noise last year, and then fell flat.
The trouble was that the officers planned to do too much—more than students wanted.
This year only moderate plans should be attempted. It is better to start slowly and travel upward, than to begin with a bang, and fall completely down.
THE KANSAN BOARD
The Daily Kansan offers students an excellent opportunity to participate in an important student activity.
The Kansan Board, composed of students, owns and edits the paper. Elections to the Board are made on a merit basis, after a candidate has proved himself capable. Six places are now open on the Board and will be filled at the end of the first semester. Start now to work for a place.
USE FREE WANT ADS
The Daily Kanan will run free want ads for students desire work,
and for persons desiring to employ students.
The plan in previous years has proved an excellent means of getting students who need work in communication with employers. Students are urged to take advantage of the opportunity.
The University Debating Society will argue that "the trend of the times is toward universal peace." We would prefer the negative on that subject.
When Youth is Dead
Schoolboys of the flamboyant hatband variety and the "frowzyblowyz" schoolgirls received the respects due them from Mrs. Cora G. Lewis, of the state board of school administration, in her address at the opening of the Fort Hays state normal school - Topeka State Journal editorial.
Youth is the blossom of life. Youth delights in color and gladness and concord of sweet sounds. Youth is fond of purple and fine linen, of lifting up its voice in yodelings to the moon, of walking the earth as a prince or princess of the blood. The flamboyant hatband or "frowzy-blowy" hair is only an incident of youth, even as were bangs and frizzes and oil-curls in the fair girlhood of 40 years ago.
Once in the dear dead days beyond recall a young man on whom it was dawning that the world was his, arched himself, after the manner of his kind and time, in a black coat, ice-cream trousers and boxed-toes shoes; and he wore some blue and green rosebuds which would have been the despair of the old monks who spent long days painting decorative initial letters and tail pieces in solemn old tomes; and he sported a tie that was a gonfalon; and his crowning glory, aside from the silk kriechief peeping from his left hand breast pocket, was a seashell which she stood like the gibbon ball on the statehouse dome in the rising sun—Oh lawsey, and ah me!
And one Sabbath at the ringing of the church bell this young Solome appeared in all his glory at the gateway to the old church; and a man without music in his soul; a man with eyes dull to the harmony of colors and with a heart dead to the faint echoes of his own lost youth; a cloak of a man owning a half section of land and big crieps of corn and a herd of swine, stepped forward and, with a grin of malice, stuck out one horny forefinger and a dirty thumb, felt of the texture of the coat, studied the effect of the Italian sunset hat, the Highland neckleat and the decorated waistcoat, and he dared "Sonny, eny gony tethered," n 'I ever came,' I shoved 329 grains of good corn grain!"—You see, old George's heart was dead and his soul shriveled to a cracklin', though he still kept live on.
And so, beloved, one may not be able to put down a finger and say, 'Here is the point where youth died in the soul; and here is the point where fretful, querulous old age began cutting deep lines and etching wrinkles on the heart.' But may hap the mere occasion that the heart forever passed is the tendency, of the one whose youthful heart is dead, to pronounce ipse dixits on the dress and furbishings of youth—E. E. Kelley.
Favorite Yarns of Kansas Professors
The very first entertainment we had I thought it was my duty to address the audience. Next day I met a teacher who was lauded for the high school and was accented.
One of the German professors on the Hill tells the following story on himself: "When I was a young man must start out in this school and business. I was directed to the principalship of a small high school.
"Professor W—— I want to tell you how very much I enjoyed your speech last night," she said. "I think it was one of the best I ever heard." Not wishing to contradict a lady I heartily agreed.
"There was one thing I enjoyed in it more than anything else. It was such an unusual quality." she continued.
WHY SHE LIKED IT
TO THE BOY OF THE TWENTIETH CENTURY
"What was that?" I inquired, much pleased.
So live that your afterself—the man you ought to be—may in his time be possible and actual. For away in the twenties; the thirties, of the twentieth century, he is awaiting his turn. His body, his brain, his soul are in your boyish hands. He cannot help himself. What will you
"Its brevity," she answered.
leave for him? Will it be a brain unspoiled by lust or dissipation, a trained mind to think and act, a nervous system true as a dial in its response to the truth about you? Will you, boy of the twentieth century, let him come as a man among his in time, or will you throw away his inheritance before he has? Will you chance to tour? Will you let him come taking your "place, gain through your experience, hallowed through your joys, building on them his own, or will you fling his hope away, decreeing, wanton like, that the man you might have been shall never be? David Starr Jordan.
Professor is a word which cannot be defined. The only thing certain about one is that it has a degree, or maybe a suit case full. Some professors are highly developed humans, while others appear almost human if interviewed at the right time. Freshmen never desire to become professors, but some seniors who have come to realize that they will never amount to a whang anyway, grasp eagerly at a chance to get an assistant instructor's job. The income monocyclic is not, but his existence is professor. After striving all day to teach 20 year old students how to keep note books some take out their vengeance on a golf ball, while others turn to the library or cigarettes. Professors never die content until they have written a book or have had their name with a Latin pigtail tacked on some defenseless chigger, or flower.

The young husband had fought his way through the Civil War, and in later years his son was to track with the fighting Twentieth Kansas through the jeopardy of the war, neither could equal the bravery of the delicately nurtured girl who stood by her husband in the struggle with the frontier.
"WINNING THE WILDERNESS"
"It occurs to one reader the latest novel of Margaret Hill McCarter, "Winning the Wilderness," that perhaps on out these Kansas prairies a new school of writers is arising. The thought comes from her realization that she is much more of the dramatic life in the wide spaces than among the cocktail society of the East.
The struggle of the pioneers with the hostile forces of Nature is a thing we of the city are forgetting. One will not lose the memory of the physical expense at which the great fields of corn and wheat were first sowed in Virginia by Aydelot brought his Virginia bride to the sod house a day's journey from a settlement, and seven miles from the only neighbor.
Wind storms, prairie fire, illness far from a doctor, all these passed; and good crops began to show. Then the plague of grasshoppers, and lastly the flattened out many trusting farmer porebooksoff. The thing is heroic.
“What kind of a man is Johnson?” “When you see two men over in the norms look both horrible and one of them looks better than the other is Johnson.” —London Tattler.
But there is more to her novel. More even than the love story of the young husband and wife and of their son and Leigh Shirley. A theme which America has is now a theme here. The love of the soil. And the reader so soaks it in that after fighting through the Boxer rebellion, the son thinks of his home amid the wheat, and longs to feel his feet on the priarie ground. The authors have so dignified the love for the soil, the labor of feeding the world.
It is evident Mrs. McCarter understands that.
Mrs. McCarter is not always happy in portraying dialogue, and at points her management of the plot seems mechanical. But let the reader come to one of the real incidents of patience and the book becomes as life-itself.
The Middle West should be proud of "The Winning of the Wilderness" It is published by A. C. McClurg & Co. at $1.35."Star,

Young folks like to dance; and they like to look well while they're doing it. Nowadays dancing is so informal just happens any time, anywhere, when music and young people get together, that the clothes for it are sort of informal also.
