Address all communications to UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN. Lawrence, Kans. The Daily Karenan aims to picture the students in a way that goes beyond Kansas; to go farther than merely printing their names, and to foster an institution of interest; to play no favorites; to be clean; to be cheerful; to be creative; to solve more serious problems to user heads; to be able to abilitate the students of the University.

With the $500 loan from the alumni association the house can be well furnished and the membership fee made as light as in succeeding years From the sentiment among the students for a Union, the membership campaign ought to last about three days—just long enough for every man on the hill to get a chance to join. A student dream of at least eight years standing is about to become a reality. General Sherman would have had a hard time finding an expressive adjective for quiz week. "Worst fog known in years." New York headline. Finals in the East evidently. WHERE IS SUSIE, THE INTEL- LIGENT PUP? "Well, what if I did flunk? They say "Bill" White and a lot of others like him never were any good in their studies." The psychology of a flunk is a matter which should be investigated by the department of psychology at its earliest convenience. Doubleless there are some students in that department who can furnish material readily; if not, students from other departments such as economics, chemistry II and American government are always available. For the symptoms of the condition of having funked are very widespread on Mt. Oread this week. Why, for instance, does a student say he doesn't care when he knows it will keep him here for summer school? Why does the freshman suddenly decide that a case of sore eyes or his presence at home in the grocery with Dad is better than taking up a notch in the old belt and hitting it hard next time? Why, for instance, does a girl simper and a boy want to hit something when they learn of a certain grade? Indeed, why not a Ph.D. degree in Flinking? "A gentle-mannered man who set off two score bombs says he has no more regard for human beings than for insects he wants to kill."—News note. What material for a professor. CLAY PRODUCTS FOR KANSAS Through the initiative of Chancellor Strong, State Geologist Erasmus Haworth and Paul Teetor, supcointendent of the clay testing laboratory of the University, the first organization of Kansas Clay Products manufacturers is to come into existence this month. Kansas for a number of years has been turning out high class clay products, and the industry making this possible has left the unity of organization to this time for accomplishment. In the new organization a most beneficial stimulus should be given to an industry which is as yet little developed in Kansas. Judging from the precincts already heard from the Society for the Prevention of Useless Giving has a big membership among K. U. faculty men. A baseball fan upon looking at our several grades asked if we didn't belong to the Three I League. BASKETBALL S A SPECTACLE Basketball is a sport Basketball, the embodiment of speed, accuracy, endurance, and quick thought: such is the indoor sport now holding sway in University athletics. It furnishes a spectacle fit to sti the blood of the most stolid. There is crack and slap of hand on flank, stretch of leaping muscles, thudding impact on the floor, swift swish of shuffling, dodging feet, mixed with the flash of colored suits, the shrill whistle of the umpire and the exultant cheer of the crowd at a successful shot. So swift is the play at times that the game appears rougher than it really is; and the student heart beats as quickly at the sight of struggling goal shooters as at the dashing march of a football eleven. Basketball is indeed the king of indoor sports. According to press reports there is coming a style of tatooing people's faces with emblems of their dearest passions. If this style ever goes into effect some professors' faces will truly read like an open book. If it took that chemistry profes sor a lecture period to recount the evils of the "coen-cola" he had better not start on Lawrence water unless he has a term at his disposal. "Clay Workers to Organize."—News Item. And now that the amateur theatrical season is about to open, doubtless the vegetable workers will also organize. Ph. D. UNDER FIRE It is not in this country alone that the Ph.D. degree is under fire. At the fifth congress of German university teachers held recently at Strasburg, Professor Amira of Munich doctorate "doctor" is the laughing stock of foreigners. In 1910 in Germany there had been 5500 "dissertations," while in Austria every doctor and lawyer had to have the degree. Veterans who knew the title—and dentists were seeking it—Springfield Republican. OUR DAILY QUIZ Use honor system and grade yourself A.

Holding certain verities CAMPUS OPINION CORRECTION Editor of the University Daily Kansan: I note in the January 23rd issue of the "Kansan" that, in answer to an inquiry asking for the names and locations of the fraternities and sororites at the University, you classified the Acacia fraternity. Located in the vicinity of the campus was an oversight on your part, I beg to call the same to your attention. I refer you to the last issue of the "Acacia Journal" November, 1913, which shows that there are at present, twenty-four active chapters of Acacia, located at Michigan, Leland Stanford, Kansas, Nebraska, California, Ohio State, Harvard, Illinois, Missouri, Cornell, Purdue, U. of Chicago, Yale, Columbia, Iowa State, U. of Iowa, Penn, Syracuse, U. of Washington, Colorado, and Kansas State Agricultural College. There was once a man who did no like to tango, who knew what wan meant by a Student Union who nevei "bugged" for quizzes, who never crowded others off the side walk by sauntering arm in arm with two others, who liked macaroni, who could talk honor system without batting an eye, who admitted that he was from Mexico and who didn't worry me."
