The Daily Kansan aims to picture the undergraduate students further than merely printing the news by standing for the issue in classes; to be clean; to be cheerful; to be curious; to solve serious problems to uoer heads; and to ability the students of the University.
Concentration is the secret of strength—Emerson.
TUESDAY, MARCH 3. 1914.
THE OLD ORDER CHANGETH
Nothing has been done, evidently, about the "red-lined" books in the library which are not used for reference work. If a volume is not particularly rare, and if it is not used for class reading, what is the objection to taking the book home for a week or two?
Mr. Faculty Man, quit smoking in University buildings or on the steps and approaches to them.
The regulation of the Board of Administration is general and includes professors as well as students.
Publicity had a healthy effect for a time but the situation needed the ruling of the Board. "boiding smoking," without qualifying phrases, to end all doubts and to make a new smokeless era certain.
Action by the Student Council in enforcing its own rule has practically stopped the habit among the undergraduates, but a few professors continued their quiet puffs.
Now baseball has the stage.
NEXT
Now discussion begins.
Even though the basketball all-star performers may be called back for an encore with Nebraska, it is time to pull out your mitt and glove, warm up that trusty throw arm and begin to applaud for the "great national sport."
With McCarty as coach, plenty of good material in sight, and Captain Coolidge looking happy, Kansas ought easily to repeat the enviable record made last year.
MORE STABILITY
The assurance of the Student Union puts a big feather in the bonnet of the Student Council, the Council which spent half of its official existence before it accomplished anything at all worth while.
Student Councils have a habit of proving inefficient during the first semester. The reason is obvious. Eighteen men who have little idea of what they are to do or the way they want to do it, are elected at one time and inefficiency is the natural result.
If the Council could evolve a method of retiring the old members at different times thus giving the incoming members a chance to meet with the old ones, the system would, without a doubt, work much more smoothly than it does now.
WOMEN AND THE STUDENT UNION
The women of the University should be as anxious as the men to make the Student Union a success.
Why? Because the success of the Men's Union will have a direct bearing upon the future of the Women's Union, the dormitory.
For five years, until this year, students and alumni have worked, begged and plead for a dormitory. Some day the women are going to lose all faith in the legislature, or some philanthropist; then they will go ahead and build a University club of their own. At that time the best friends of the dormitory will be the members of the Men's Student Union, who have come to realize the benefits of a common meeting place. Any dormitory booster could well afford to play that old game of influence with her best friend, if he happens to be "one who hasn't yet signed."
ENDS AND ODDLETS
"Chemicals Would Travel," says a headline. If we go we hope they will not forget to take the Chemistry Building odors with them.
Sixteen victories out of seventeen basketball games. With this record Maloy's Jayhawk ought to celebrate by investing in a new pair of shoes.
INTRODUCING CINDERELLA
“Found at Christian College, one patient who has inappropriate Osteoarthritis may have helped by identifying same.” — University Missouri.
Five thousand Mexican prisoners, men, women, and children, were compelled to bath the other day at Fort Bliss, Texas. Such a cruelty must not be allowed. But with all his wonderful schemes of torture he never thought of this one.
Life is just one thing after another. After all the trouble and worry with the income tax collector last week, students are expected to prepare for the regular monthly quizzes is usual.
AN APPEAL THE MAN THERE
(The Daily Kansas will offer a
cash prize to any student who can
transmit this essay into modern
language.)
Yet, when all is said and done,
there still remains this thing to be
attended to, and I am very sure that
you will see the thing that I am trying
to make you believe in. I am not attempt to try and
coerce me into telling that man over
there any of those things that I do
not want to tell, though there will
of course be a few of those things
here and there and many of those things
that I have been trying to tell you for so long a time.
Now, on top of all this, I feel sure that you will see to it that there will soon be a few of those things though. when this is said and done, if there still remains to tell me, I will never be any of those men here that I am not willing to handle. But, of course, if you persist in doing this there will soon be a few of those men at this place who are willing to do what event. I am unwilling to tell you that there will never be anything done.
Now, there will be some other things that I will soon want you to attend to for me, and when the time comes I will feel perfectly free and willing and able to call upon you for anything that I may happen to want along this line. Now, there will doubtless be a few things that I will need ere long, so you must hold yourself in readiness to do anything I may happen to call upon you to do, or see anything I may want you to see, or be any place I may happen to want you to be.

WITH K. U. POETS
When fields grow green, and south winds blow.
WHEN FIELDS GROW GREEN
Formerly Head of the Department of French
Her swift feet twinkle where they bax.
Through nature's views new pulses
you;
And dandelions the star, the grass,
and violets nestle and orchids glow.
The mating birds the season know,
And hand in hand young lovers go.
And every ladder has his lass,
When fields grow green!
Pass,
And dandelions star the grass.
Dead things relate to long age;
The sluggish satiates to and fro;
She awakes alat!
The shaggy saturts to and
Dance in the wood, and bake alas!
Moreover
THE SOPHOMORE'S INVITATION
Or Pan's pawn pig blown long and low.
When fields are green.
By WILLIAM HERBERT CARNEHILL, 80
Formly Vice-Chancellor of the Uti-
lian University.
Come out with me, O maiden mine,
Come out and roam the campus;
I'll swild the fairy bug-neth tine,
And flounder through the bindweed
And flounder through the bindweed ripe.
The homely stone for the she shall yield Its coleopterous treasure; For the across the stubble field
vine.
A-puffing like a grampus.
"I'll chase the scoralt's shining shield.
And make believe its pleasure.
Each rotten log for us shall be
a basket of Pandora;
the crazy ant, the wicked flea,
the spiky exincididae
Or on some warm and dusky night
*Well he lies to te arbor.*
We shall choose thyphant's heavy flight
*Well we take thyphant's heavy flight*
*Into our fatal harbor.*
The spunky cicindelade Shall help complete our Flora.
So come with me, O maiden mine,
O come and roam the campus.
W will call thou over tangents pine,
Or thy wisteria vine, enwine,
A puffing like a fig.
THE JUNIOR STOOD
BY PREELE RAWSON BENNETT,
Fortier Student, New on Chicago Indu-
tions.
The Junior stood beside the stair,
Stood waited for his maid fair;
Went down, sat, and
The Prof. who keeps his classes late,
the Class rushed by but patient there
was there.
He looks aloft with restless air; she comes. She must stand with her hair loose, the muff atop her hair longer than usual.
And gazing through the vacant air,
The Junior stood!
She meets another up the stair; she gives her books into his care; She never turns, but passes straight. Then grinding hard his teeth with
She meets another up the stair;
She gives her books into his care;
THE STORY OF MY LIFE
FLORENCE FINCH KELLY, '81
According to the Alumni Catalogue I was graduated from the University in 1881. But as I am quite sure I can not possibly have lived as many years as that would indicate I have chosen that as my favorite date of birth. As to my activities since then, I seem to have been engaged most the time in explaining to me people that I am married somebody else, to the fact that there are several other women in the United States having the same name which I acquired by marriage, some of them, and one of particular prominence, owning the same given name, I have been credited with enough achievements to fill the lives of half a dozen energetic persons. Whatever else I may have done and however much I may wish that I had done these other things instead, candor forces me to admit that I have never been with the inquisitive Alaska, nor faced with the inquisitive force of capital engaged in the education of women and children, nor led legislative campaigns to force the passing of anti-child labor laws, nor lectured upon these and allied subjects.
But stories intended for the furnishing of a "morgue"—humble though useful institution of all well-regulated newspaper offices—should deal with positive rather than negative matters. So permit me to say that the University of Dallas Kansan is my pet aversion as an author, that my favorite色 is all of them and that I think Kansas has had more material prosperity than is good for her soul.
She (after she has seen his physi-
sician's certificate)—And will you al-
ways be my eugenic mate, sweet
chromosome?
He (Darwingly)—Yes my darling little natural selection.
And putting on their rubber gloves, they went out hand in hand. in search of a disinfected minister—Pennsylvania Punch Bowl.
