The Daily Kansan aims to picture the undergraduate students go to further help them more printily, the news by standing in front of no fearlesses; to be clean; to be cheerful; to be smart; to be curious; to be more serious problems to widen heads; to be willing to sacrifice the students of the University. THURSDAY, APRIL 16, 1914. Comparisons make enemies of our friends.-Philemon. AHA, OPPORTUNITY KNOCKS And besides it may start a tradition. The supposed lack of traditions at the University is traditional. Freshmen who have never seen the inside of another university will become eloquent when talking about the comparative absence of venerated customs at K. U., two months after they arrive in Lawrence. Everything is new on Mount Oread, and smacks of fresh paint and varnish. We are told that students have no charming ruins, no musty moss-covered walls, no hollow spots on the campus—to say nothing of the absence of annual events which began before the Revolutionary war—that they may love and rever after they are separated from their alma mater. WHAT IS IT? If for no other reason, therefore, than the possibility of starting a bewhiskered tradition, the sophomores and freshmen should get together on the suggestion to engage in a tug-of-war across Potter lake on or about May 1. a joy of the springtime.

Never lasts long enough. Fatal to loneliness. Competes successfully with the movies. Almost due. REAL BASEBALL The race war has begun. Not a Mexican invasion, a Boxer insurrection, or a battle with the Japanese navy, but merely two contests with the Chinese baseball team. from Honolulu. The first game today is almost over but the teams play again tomorrow and every student has a chance to see an international exhibition of the sport which has made America famous. Remember the game begins at two-thirty tomorrow on account of the Junior Prom. “ALL THINGS COME—” At last, a start toward the senior memorial! Even though this is the eleventh hour there are yet sixty figurative minutes remaining—and that is enough time to do a great deal, if the proper spirit is shown. The class honor societies are united for a memorial, in fact, opposition to the idea itself is scarce, but a variety of suggestions will undoubtedly be presented and discussed. Each senior present will hear something of interest in Snow Hall tomorrow at chapel time. and he should be there to speak his mind, or forever afterwards hold his peace. Some plan will be adopted without doubt, and the success of that scheme, whatever it is, will depend upon the enthusiastic support of every loyal '14 student. Extracts From K. U. Congressional Record The Senate met at 4:30 o'clock The VICE PRESIDENT resumed the chair. The Journal of the proceedings of the preceding meeting were read and approved. Senator MURRAY. Mr. President, I notice that there are very few Senators in the chamber and I therefore suggest the absence of a quorum. Senator BAILEY. I desire to announce that the junior senator from the department of chemistry is unavailable. The golf links are now in shape. THE VICE PRESIDENT. The roll call shows that there is a quorum present. The presentation of petitions and memorials is in order. Senator BOYNTON. Mr. President, many of the senators present will no doubt attend the Junior Prom in Robinson Gymnasium Friday evening. There seems to be some doubt as to the propriety of diapers for the children of the teachers and flowers. I wish to announce myself as being decidedly against their use. I also ask that my stand on the matter be printed in the record. Senator WILCOX, Mr. President. Senator from the Department of Greek Senator WILCOX. I can never consent to any such violation of the established custom of formal society. Flowers are the finishing of a full dress affair. Cabs afford privacy which screens evening dress in ascending the hill before sundown. We Kansans are too prone to cast to the wind the established customs of polite society. Senator THORPE. Mr. President. It seems to me that this is a proper matter to be decided by the Committee on Personal Revenue. The hour of six o'clock having arrived. The VICE PRESIDENT said: the hour having arrived at which the constitution requires adjournment, the Chair declares the session adjourned sine die. ENDS AND ODDLETS CRACK IT YOURSELF After reading the list of "favorite airs for that Old Song Day" in the Daily Kansan yesterday the office humorist insists that the sort of ozone needed is a little FRESH air. The names of the editor-in-chief and business manager of The Scoop, published in Chicago, are W. E. Daton and Wm. Frederick Nutt. Dr. Wiley lost a lot of prestige in the eyes of his countrymen when he publicly announced that he didn't like pie. One of Cy Byron's mortal enemies has written in to the editor insisting that the poem by that distinguishes author Richard C. Moore should not have been headed "The Vacant Prow," but instead, "The Vacant Brow." BARRED FROM THE MALES The "Bald Headed Number" of the Pennsylvania Punch Bowl was refused admission to the Philadelphia postoffice by less than a hair's breadth because of a puzzle picture which the government officials declared to be a lottery. A pig's eye has been grafted on a boy and he can now see, but when he grafts it and goes to college he'll tell the whole team of the boarding house chicken every time. K. U. menagerie adds several new freaks. A pure white quail and a perfectly white squirrel, a white oppossum, a white Kingbird and a white raven that may be classed as out of the ordinary.

A Harvard professor says that there are 143 "good English substitutes for damn." What a slim supply for the spring quiz season! 一 WITH K. U. POETS By Esther Clark, Former Student. "the Knave of Hearts he spied the turtles and took them quite away." Of course, you know I love you; so You are my Queen of Hearts. I've wondered, too, if it was you The Queen of Hearts she made some tarts I were wonderla, too; if it does you Who made those toothsome tarts? Now, I am not a knave, God wot! Yet, had I knavish arts, All that stopped suddenly when I was fourteen years by reason of the family moving to "town," said town being the straggling and impoverished village of Ioa. I remember school for the reason that it was so very bad. The last year of my preparation for the 'University there was not one thing taught in the Ioa school that I needed in order to pass my entrance examinations, and so I had去 to school to myself—a lonely business. Dear me! I have already run over my limit of 200 words! Let me take just enough more space to say that Life suits me fine! Every year is better than the last one and after twenty, or say thirty more years of it, I could not go back to the beginning and try it all over again! CAMPUS OPINION What is there about a crowd of forty college students at a college dining table so appalling and so distasteful to the average human being? The question why full grown men continue to return to college dining rooms, day after day, year after year, with the same unaccountable idea of polite behavior, from the meanish soup suppe- tor to the masticating woman, Bosio the Snake Eater? BETTER TABLE MANNERS Twould be the Queen I'd steal, I ween, And leave behind the tarts. Why doesn't the University, so anxious to help the rising generation, issue occasional pamphlets on simple matters of general conduct? Isn't there some way to make people understand that they need not: (3) collect an array of dishes as we learn, considering their starving neighbor. (2) anchor knives and forks on the plates. The handles are not dead. (Written by order of the editio with the warning that the narrative should be "fair, flattering, and frivolous.") (1) lie on the table. It will not fly away. Missionaries to the heathen? Yes, mionarches the pets of Cicea. Save, save, pearls. "Critical" Also. THE STORY OF MY LIFE By C. F. Scott. I was born, as I have been informed, on a farm in Allen county, ever and ever so many years ago—although he has been my friend. I suppose I went to school some, while living in the country, but what I chiefly remember is shooting prairie chickens and hunting rabbits and killing skunks and swimming skating and fishing and showing riding and raking hay and herring cattle. About the only chance I ever had for distinction in a literary way while in the University, Nature robbed me of. I was "Orator" on the Oread Commencement Week program. The Oread evening's prize was to be held a little storm came up and pested the roof off the University. The University only had one roof then, and when it was gone there was nothing for the Oread Society to but cancel its program. And I was canceled along with the rest of them. But I have spoken at the University again so maybe it didn't make very much difference in the long run. The nearest we came to having any sort of athletics during my University years was an occasional and desultory game of football. I was catcher one or two years,—a very poor one. Ed. Little, since substantiant Colonel Bates, a leading candidate for Justice of the Supreme Court of the state of Kansas, and Ralph Waldo Emerson Twitchell, since Attorney General of the Territory of New Mexico and the author of some remarkable books about that state (which I have been too poor to buy and he has been too economical to send to me), alternated as pitches and between us, and with some help from Don Rankin, and a few others out in the field, we managed one year to win the silver (plated) ball which I think may still be seen in some of the University museums.
