The Daily Kamaan wants to picture the teacher in a Kamaan who is going to go further than merely printing the new material. He wants his students to play no favorites to be clean; to be cheerful to her; to solve serious problems to winger hands; in all, to serve the best of his ability the students of the class. MONDAY, OCTOBER 5, 1914. GET BUSY, MR. LARDNER Treasurers of students organizations have not yet been provided with a uniform system of accounting by the financial secretary of the Board of Administration, James T. Lardner, in spite of his declaration that student accounts would be kept in a uniform way this year. The customary audit by University officers last year was not satisfactory. Mr. Lardner commented on the businesslike way in which the accounts were kept. This year, he said, a system should be provided. But things are running along in the same old way. Mr. Lardner should make good his declaration of last year at once, in order that treasurers can start their accounts with a good set of books. Student business should be conducted in a business-like way. Student treasurers will welcome a scheme that will permit their accounts to be kept in a way that will show where the money goes. A WELL-CONDUCTED PARADE The night shirt parade Saturday proved that lawlessness is not necessary to a good time. Students conducted themselves well, and took only what was offered them. The parade was a success. CONGRATULATIONS, FRESHMEN The merchants are pleased—C. P. Starkweather, president of the Merchants' Association, has thanked the students for the merchants. A good feeling prevails between town and gown, which is as it should be. And students thank the merchants for the hospitable way in which they were received. CONGRATULATIONS, FRESHMEN The freshmen are to be congratulated on the splendid spirit they are showing in upholding University tradition by wearing freshmen caps. The response to the order at the game was general. How much better it is than trying to evade the edict of the upper classes, and making constant trouble, like last year and the year before. The upper classmen are pleased, and the freshmen will do well to continue. The cap is not a badge of ignominy. It is advantageous to the freshmen, for it furnishes them with the means of becoming acquainted, and developing class spirit. PAY YOUR DUES. The Student Council begins today campaign for 1000 members. The life of the Union depends upon the success of the campaign. A permanent union is an impossibility unless the present union receives the undivided support of the students. The advantages of a union are too numerous to need enumeration. Everybody should join. Pay now. The Councilmen will solicit your membership fee, but a better way is to drop in at the Union, where Dad Gregory is always ready with a receipt book. The Student Council will consider two things of great importance to the University at its meeting tomorrow night: the organization of county clubs to promote sentiment in favor of the mill tax, and plans for a permanent Student Union. The meetings are open, and you, as a student, are eligible to attend. Perhaps you have some ideas you think are good. If so, the Council wants to hear them. The determination of student opinion is always difficult, and the Council will welcome students to its meetings. And when a plan of campaign for the mill tax is adopted, every student should get busy and see to it that a county club is organized from his home. It is the students' best chance to help the school. SUPPORT THE Y. M. C. A. The Y. M. C. A. banquet at the gymnasium after the football game was a success, but too few students attended. But what was more noticeable than that was the absence of the faculty. Fewer than a dozen attended, and students noted the fact and commented on it. The Y. M, C. A. deserves support from all, and is getting it. The first to be behind any worthy movement should be the faculty. If they take the lead, students will follow. My Favorite Poem Dean J. W. Green Year ago. Rock of Age, cleft for me, Let me hide myself in thee; Let the water and the blood, From thy wounded side which flowed, Be of sin the double cure, Save from wrath and make me pure. Could my tears forever flow, Could my zeal no languor know, These for sin could not atone; Thou must save, and thou alone: In my hand no price I bring; Simply to thy cross I cling. While I draw this fleeting breath, When my eyes shall close in death, When I rise to worlds unknown, And behold thee on thy throne. Rock of Ages, cleft for me, Let me hide myself in thee. The Growler Bv GLOOMY GUS One of these days a celebrated man with highly developed good taste and an eye for the artistic is going to visit the University. He'll watch the morning mists smoke up lazily from the Kaw, and note how the Indian Summer haze makes old Blue Mound loup up with mirage-like proportions. The scenic harmony of the entire campus will thoroughly delight him unless, in a moment of absentmindedness, he happens to stray into the library—in which case he will trip over one of the green stripes in the new Irish mattings, and jar his impressions of the classic beauty of Mt. Oread into a million pieces. Campus Opinion DIDN'T GIVE INTERVIEW To the Editor of the Daily Kansan: In the Daily Kansan of October 1, 1914, was what purported to be an interview with the undersigned. The interview was never held and the statements made took the birth of a newspaper for the Kansan who, moreover, stated to student jintors in the Geology Building that he had faked the interview. In the issue of Friday, October 2, there was an editorial on the opinions of a science professor in respect to news and boasts were made that great pains are taken to see that news are accurate. The facts as stated above are strangely in keeping with the thesis of the editorial. The undersigned does not object to being quoted; but he does object that bogus statements are aliased and have followed later by editorials in which his supposed statements are denounced. Actions of this kind belong to the field of yellow journalism and can only make enemies where there should be friends. The writer has expressed himself on the news question in so far as it relates to the present war and his conclusions are as follows. Each bulleen nation is asked to get out as is not detrimental to that nation. This conclusion has been reached after having read the papers of each nation involved in the present struggle. These papers were read in three different countries of Europe. Trusting that in the future the Kansan live up to the sentiment expressed in the editorial of Friday and that great care will be exercised in setting facts and in verifying reports, I am. Very sincerely, Prof. George Putnam was in a hap- pody mood this morning when a Kansas cab asked him for a funny story, and he told me that the classes be retailed several good ones. Mr. Putnam said that he succeeded in passing off the following story on his tutor in Oxford. A plague fell upon the horses of a vander in New Mexico several years ago. A government investigated and this was the report; Favorite Yarns of Kansas Professors W. H. Twenhofel. "Among English landlords, David Lloyd George is a mighty unpopular man, you know," remarked Professor Putnam in beginning. "His attempted reforms in English tenancy have made him to be regarded as a manace to English property rights. It is no wonder then that an English landlord made this distinction between an accident and a calamity. If Lloyd George of the time it would have accident. If he were rescued it would be a calamity. And they really believe that over there." Professor Putnam said. "We find that in coming to in the corral at night the horses crossed a deep marsh. Huge balls of mud gathered upon the tails of the fortunate beasts. The weight was so great that the skin was pulled back from over the eyes of the horses. The animals soon died of insomnia." Washburn must have a good football team this year. Their deftiens admit they will beat K. U. and Manhattan without much trouble, though they say the game with Nebraska prepares them for a "W" on back, under the leadership of "Blondy" Trobert and Cook.—Baker Orange. Chasing the Glooms Heard at Y. W. house: Voice from above: "Girls, there's a man down stairs." Echo from back parlor: "Lock the door quick; don't let it escape."—Daily Oklahuman. MADE IN ENGLAND Prof. George Putnam Jay—There comes the pulmotor; wonder what's the matter. Hawk—Maybe somebody killed a quiz. Some people's efforts to combine comfort with style remind us of starched cuffs on a union suit.—Ex. It's an ill wind that blows from the quarantine station.—Ex. It's quite an undertaking to bury an elephant.—Ex. Beauty delicious, Music capricious, Steps adventitious, Knees that sag Feet that rag— A rag.-California Pelican Lovesick Male—The only girl in the world has refused me. How can I live without her? Practical Female—Breathe plenty of fresh air, eat three squares a day, sleep nine hours every night and enjoy the day. -Pennsylvania Punch Bowl, Not infrequently one meets a college student who says he does not want to study algebra or history or chemistry or something else. "I'm not adapted to that," he says. Or more often—for them, he apparently will think that draws clear conclusions—he remarks hesitatingly, "I never liked that in school." The naked hills lie wanton in the breeze. The fields, are nude, the groves un- froaked. WORTH LEARNING Bare are the quivering limbs of shameless trees. What wonder is it that the corn is shocked?—California’ Pelican. Sometimes a student's mentality is wholly unsuited to a particular subject. More frequently, however, it is entirely possible for the person to learn by a little effort to the unattractive work and find compensations or even pleasure in it. He will moreover, learn the lesson of adaptability—a lesson that everyone can learn and that is well worth knowing. In other words, who has learned it sees the world with sonar vision—Kansas Industrialist. THE Lawrence Merchants' Association Style Show Formal Opening, Thursday Evening, October 8th.
