Address all communications to UNIVERSITY DAILY KANBAN, LUMBERG The Daily Kanan aims to picture the undergraduate life of the University of Kansas; to play an important role in the University body; to play no favorites; to be clean; to be cheerful; to be charitable; to be courageous; to leave more time for life; in all, to serve to the best of its ability the students of the University. FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 26, 1913 From all the fools who went before I learned a wealth of wit! For over Wisdom's darkest door Some fool a lamp had lit. Ye shun, O Sages over-wise Experience's school, And lose the lore—for which he dies— Gained by some gallant fool. —Margaret R. Garvin. SERIOUS PROBLEMS AHEAD The opening address of Chancellor Strong in chapel this morning deserves the serious consideration of every student in the University, and especially of the women. Student union and unity, elimination of superfluous dramatics, the irresponsibility of student government, a lax sense of honor on the part of selected student leaders, the tendency to extravagance in dress and the dangers the moral life of the University is more than ever exposed to all representation. University, but rather, more than ever pressing and urgent. To the women especially did the Chancellor appeal for aid in maintaining high standards of morality and economy in a year when the state is weakened by a hard summer and the University exposed to the demoralizing tendencies of the The address was not by any means a perfunctory one. It came direct from the heart of a man struggling under the increasing load of worries bound to come to a growing University in an individualistic state like Kansas. Every student should have been there to hear it. The Daily Kansan extends a welcoming hand to the new captain of the Jawhaker football team. GOOD LUCK, "BILL" WEIDLEIN Here's luck and a winning team to you, "Bill." We'll always remember the time when "Bill" sat beside us in "German I" and wondered if he could make the freshman team. The modesty that then characterized the big linean is yet one of the most pleasing qualities of "Big Bill," who said little of his chances to make the team but went ahead and made it. It might well be said that the morals of the University are about to be entrusted to a single man tonight when the university chooses her. Consider the cheer leader in action. He is able to sway the minds of a thousand students all during the athletic season, and his slightest action may affect the training of years. The importance of having the right kind of a cheer leader should be plain to every one. He must be the ideal leader a man with the right attitude toward athletics. His homesty and enthusiasm will make his appearance. He must see the right thing and lead toward it. What if the cheer leader should lead the rooters in hissing the umpire whenever our team is penalized? What if he should call for a triumph shout when the most dangerous player on the other team is laid out? The pity of it is, there are so few cheer leader THE IDEAL ATTITUDE In editorial attitude the college journalist often runs a varied, irregular course. At first, perhaps, he is intoxicated with the "new freedom" he has—the opportunity to spread his (usually) worthless opinions broadcast with a fair degree of impunity. The first result of this intoxication is usually an attempt to make his column a bright and clever oasis filled with the witty savings of a real humorist. It usually takes about a week to show the young upstart he isn't a George Ade, and then he discovers another thing—that his powers of criticism are inclined to run away with his usual good intentions. The chance to express opinion leads to license, and he finds himself belaboring everything about which he can evolve an unfavorable thought. He rarely attains the ideal: to say little that is harsh, except on rare occasions, and then, to say it unmistakably; to be charitable, good-humored, mildly cynical, perhaps, but always, cheerful and full of enthusiasm for anything that will help the school; to be courageous and clean, slow to condemn, eager to assist, and above all, fair and impartial. The Daily Kansan wishes to be thought striving toward such an ideal, even though its stumbling progress at times seems to be in the opposite direction. CLEVER THINGS THE OTHER FELLOW SAYS First Freshman—I got a couple of good cigars for a nickel. Try one? Second Ditto—Thanks. Five minutes contented puffing. First Freshman—I like a cigar. So sweet. Second Freshman—That's right. Five more minutes. First Freshman—This is pretty strong. Second Freshman—Umph. Short space. First Freshman—Let's take a look out of the window. No response from second freshman. Already looking up of the window. Stude—"I wonder what makes my hair so thick?" Barber—"Perhaps it's this going around with your head so much." Lampoon. "What makes you think that Professor Bones drinks?" "He gave me an exempt." —Widow "A very 'feasible' plan," remarked the sophomore, learning of the price of tuition. '13—"Well Steve, I just found that girl out." '14—"How did you do that?"' '13—"Went to her house when she wasn't home." —Punch Bowl. Polly—What material is a Phi Beta Kappa key made Si—Bone, usually. -California Pelican The Point of View Boston—"Perfectly disgusting!" Philadelphia—"Rather suggestive!" New York—"Clean and amusing!" A man's foresight is frequently wasted on things that never happen. Punch Bowl. The faster a man runs in debt the more he gets behind. What is worth doing at all is worth doing well except when we are being done. An ounce of prevention is a good antidote for remorse. The things that come to those who wait are the things to one else wants. Few of us think about mending our ways until they are pretty badly shattered. CHURCH NOTICES.

Mr. Paul Gilmore is no doubt one of the greatest actor-managers in this country and has proven this on several occasions in the past. In 1984 he played the most powerful plays before the American public today. The part of Craig portrays a fine type of the American business man, whose wife is won from him by a treacherous boyfriend. He writes written law, but instead works out the punishment of the pair along new lines and in a manner that makes the play seem not acting but real, throbbing vital life. "The Bowersock Theater, Saturday, Sept. 27, Matinee and night—Ady." In the modern movement among universities towards rendering digital degrees, a university of Kansas was a leader, having begun such work in 1866. AMUSEMENTS The Cullen-Bainbridge's *wildfire* musical comedy success, "Doctor de Luxe," headed by Oscar Figman, as an actor in a company, comes to the Bowersock Theater, Monday, Sept. 29. Not in a decade have the press and public given permission to perform the dorsalment as "Doctor de Luxe" received, and justly so, as it is the cleanest, neatest and daintiest musical comedie that has been produced since 1954. The theater moment in the entire action of the play; it is full of mirth and music, pretty girls, funny comedians, clever dance routines and wonderful electrical effects. —Adv.
