WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE? Be not wise in your own conceits. -Romans 12:16. WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE? The best thing about the senior memorial meeting Friday was the underlying assumption that every senior favored the idea itself, and that the only chance for argument lay in the sort of a memento to leave. Not a word was spoken against the memorial plan. Four possibilities were suggested—a palpit for chapel, a seat on the campus, bulletin boards in the principal buildings, and a double row of trees down Oread Avenue. Each plan had ardent supporters and a hot debate over the matter is certain at the meeting tomorrow. A rule requiring all suggestions to be accompanied by a definite statement of the probable cost will limit the discussion to those schemes which have been given some investigation. Tomorrow is the day actually to select the memorial. Time is short and further delay is unnecessary. If you have anything to say, Mr. Senior, be in chapel and speak out. Then if your pet idea is not adopted be a good loser and back the decision of the majority to the end. DISCOVER EACH OTHER! The honor sentiment committee composed of students, discovered a list of faculty methods which were unfair and unjust to the undergraduate Suggestions and recommendations were submitted to the faculty and now a committee of professors has been appointed to investigate the matter. By taking notice of the student's point of view the faculty is beginning to unify interest at the University in a way that has long been needed. Students and professors should appreciate the work and problems of each other to a much greater extent. A senior should know a half dozen professors almost well enough to call them by their first names—and he doesn't. May methods of causing undergraduates and instructors to study each other's difficulties be multiplied rapidly! CENSOR THE CROWDS, TOO With all the talk about censoring moving picture shows the reformers seem to have forgotten the audience completely. The man, woman, child, or college student who attends these shows is often as much in need of revision outward as is the film. Probably every one who attends the theaters even occasionally has experienced some annoyance from that form of pest who is unable to sit quietly in his seat while the en- ertainment is going on. The vexation may take different forms. Some of the nuisances talk in a loud tone to their boorish companions; some of them insist on singing if the orchestra plays a popular air and some keep up a running fire of monolog comment expressing their views of the stage performance. Then there is the individual who has seen the picture before, and keeps his neighbors informed as to what is to come next. To remonstrate with the noisy one is to invite a public "bawling out," as they consider it an attempt to infringe upon their personal liberty. Our suggestion is that each theater and motion picture house employ a censor and a "bouncer," the bouncer to remove the offending ones when the occasion demands, and the censor to refuse them admittance when they apply for admittance again. RAIN OR MUSIC If the present weather continues, the popular out-of-door concerts which the band gave two years ago could be started immediately. Whatever the barometer man decides to do, we hope he will not give us more raw evenings like those furnished last spring—and spoil every concert which McCanles and his men attempt. "ALRIGHT" OR "ALL RIGHT?" "ALRIGHT" OR "ALL RIGHT" The Kansas City Court of Appeals refuses to say which is correct, "alright" or "all right." Of course Webster gives two words but the court evidently is thinking of unwritten law. And which really is correct? Website law "already" and "altogether" in one-word form. It senses that "all right" was not in the modern sense when dictionaryis were started. Conventionality is the strongest band in the world. This is the chief argument against a radical application of simplified spelling—University Missourian. OUR DAILY QUIZ Use honor system and grade yourself CAMPUS SEATS Q. Why is a campground A. Principially to provide the tired engineer a resting place between stares of his daily Marathon. Q—Is that their only excuse for existing? A—Oh no, the steps of Green Hall are going to need supplementing it if you don't have them. Q—Where are our campus seats? A—As yet they are confined to their own premises. Q. —When will they be put in a more useful place? A—As soon as the students realize how desirable they are. —and when will that be wherefore. When we stop to give the matter a turn. Q. Who is going to buy seats for our campus? A. —Well there's John D., and the Board of Administration, and the alumni, and, if worst comes to worst, the student themselves. A—Call them class memorials and they will go down all right. Q—What! The students buy furniture? University? Shades of legislatures Q—Aren't they rather expensive in A.—Depends on the material. But if every student would deny himself a couple of trips to the nickel the money saved would buy one or two handsome concrete benches. Q. —Might not these seats be objected to on the ground of encouragng loaoting? A—People who want to loaf will do it anyway, and certainly a bench is a healthier place to loaf than on a staircase. And not so full of chiggers, either. A. —Try putting up posters announcing that the Lawrence police will arrest anyone on suspicion of having bunches placed on the campus. Q—How might general enthusiasm be aroused? By Ethel A. Hickey, '98 THE STORY OF MY LIFE Head of the Department of English in the University of New Mexico. I don't know why you chose me for a Who's Who candidate unless that little date of April 1 has an insidious meaning. Nevertheless, I bite—always do bite, always thereby—because a wide guaste that maybe by and will crystallize into a discriminating astе. "The Story of My Life" . . . . I smile. But here goes: I was born—never mind when. But it was I N Kansas—I never balk on that fact. I went through school quite as a matter of course: I never had that yearning for knowledge you encounter so often in syrup stories; I never had a purpose; never cared to be a good example to anybody; didn't know a blessing about Uplift, nor the heights we should or any of the俯卧 heights we should Aim at the short I went to school be. I was expected to go, and I got into as much mischief as I could and was scared to death when I was caught. On into college and then suddenly in my senior year, I was bitten by the bug of Reform, and tried to turn things topsytyv... I suppose you are still doing it back there, writing things in your Daily that occasionally set the school by the ears, call down the wrath of the Faculty, and sometimes the animosity of the state. When Johnson was my medium, Hillard Johnson was our editor; and I can still see the smile with which he accepted my outbursts against the evils of the world and of K. U. in particular. I thought the smile was appreciative then but I know it was wise, for Johnson, the teacher, the teacher was a politician, a manipulator; and I carried out unaware many a suggestion that gave tong to our columns. Well, it culminated when he turned over the "weekly" to the girls for the Woman's Edition—the first, believe—and I wrote ap ap newspapers that caused him to sit, and the Woman's League and the Y. W. C. A. and the Discipline Committee and the Chancellor and the Chancellor's wife pounced upon me. Oh, I had my Fame's Little Day right enough. But I'm sorry now and I take this opportunity to apologize to old K. U. for maligning her sons and especially her valuables and forgetten and forgotten and hope the harm done was not great... It was great fun that year working for the "weekly" and the "K. U. Idler." and the Annual, and getting into scraps and scrapes and being graduated by the grace of the Faculty. Pity. I remember only the fun. And then came reality; three or four years of grind, of learning what the old school had taught us, easily easy sailing. To be sure, I've had my ups and down; and teaching is not all an "up." But I've seen a baker's dozen of boys and girls get into our good magazines and I've rejoiced more threaten than mourned over the return of my own manuscripts. I've had my Wunderkid—rather a laughter-year. And. I have many sheets of covers of our own books. I have slept under the desert stars in a city high in the sky; I have followed strange processions of Flagelantes dripping with blood from shoulder to heel; I have seen brown-skinned Cristos agonize under the weight of the Lenten cross; I have seen a pagan dance night betwixt Christmas Eve and Christmas Day; I have shot through a torrent-canyon into a primitive town two-score miles from the railway, and have found there a colony of men and women who are Doing things—artists from Paris and New York—with evening dress and wine and music and laughter and much It's out in the desert I live, but every day I stand where, in every direction he nadir, I can see. I've seen it all. And there's something in that, you know, There! Will that do? I fear me I have run over the word limit—never do have patience enough to count the words. And after all, I have said nothing. Cut all you call, or if you wish the facts are so few, merely threel teen years of teaching, first in high school then in college. My life is but a simple one. Teach a little, study a little, read a little, write a little—that is my routine. Now and then a jaunt off to some strange rite or place, now and then an address to some association—Bless me, it I've even been invited to "orate" at a Mother's Congress. didn't—these furnish the relief from the monotony. Life, truly. Not all content—by no means. There are ambitions which he still by the grace of will and weok to realize. What I have accomplished weighs but the smallest part of a grain. The purple patches are but few. But it's a good old world and I hope I may not soon leave it. Pauline Madden, '09, is making good as city librarian. She is using live methods and interesting people. A little advertising scheme she used a week or two ago has brought good results. And though so much novel reading on the part of the patrons no doubt distresses her. I believe she likes the work. I am sure we like her. "Me for the burlesque show tonight." "Aw, save your money and read the Cosmos"—Illinois Siren.
