The Daily Kansasans aim to picture the undergraduate life of the University of Kansas; to go further than merely printing the news by printing it on paper and by writing it in pens or pencils; to be cheerful; to be charitable; to be courageous; to leave more *problems* to older students; in all, to serve to the best of its ability.

STRUGGLE
My soul is like the oar that momently Dies in a desperate stress beneath the wave, Then glitters out again and sweeps the sea; Each second I come back in one new grave - SIDNEY LANNER.
AT LEAST THERE ARE OVERALLS
Good for "Mac" McCanless, leader of the K. U. band! "Mac" has given an ultimatum to the effect that his men will appear in street clothes before they will don last year's worn out, wrinkled, faded, tramp-like uniforms that make the band look like a musical delegation from Coxey's army.
Considering the faithful and valiant service "Mac's" men have given during the life of their uniforms it is now up to the Student Council to prove its right to exist by all tests. The students and band members for more aesthetic uniforms.
Our suggestion: If the band men can't have new uniforms, give 'em overalls.
If you've ever been a freshman away from home for the first time, you can imagine how many homesick freshmen have been flocking to the library this week looking up the home paper.
THE HOME PAPER
Probably no one thing has relieved so many freshmen of "that homesick feeling" lately as a look at last week's home paper. There, down the middle of the front page in black type, is an account of how "John Henry and Mary Catherine left this week for the University of Kansas at Lawrence to take up college work. A brilliant future is in store for them."
What a thrill that must have sent through that freshman! There it was, in print, before all the world, that he was here to go ahead in the world, and now that everyone knows it, he'd not fail for anything.
Not at all; he'll stick it out and show the home folks how well he can get along up here.

FEWER ORGANIZATIONS
The news that there will be one less "dramatic club" on the mill this year will doubtless bring a sigh of relief to the Hon. Eligibility committee, though not to a prominent local photographer.
The new move is one that needs extended application on the hill. Last year there were some 110 different societies here, and every year new ones spring up. All it seems to take any more is a certain number of students dissatisfied with the way other organizations are run and managed. As students lose their lessons out, to hold a few meetings and then he forgot.
The Eligibility committee should be armed with a shotgun and an open season on inactive organizations declared.
While we are commending Dr. Crumbine for adding $5,000,000 to the annual value of the Kansas hen's product, don't let us forget to applaud the valor of the six student boarders who made the tests possible.
CLEVER THINGS THE OTHER FELLOW SAYS.
The case of Homer Hoyt should furnish consolation for those of us who failed to make Phi Beta Kappa.

CHEMISTRY DISCOVERY MAY AFFECT DR. HYDE
Professor Cady's Research Bear on Trial of Kansas City Doctor
RESULTS TO BE PUBLISHEI
"Hydrocyanic Acid Cannot be Form ed Naturally in Human Stomach"
—Statement From Laboratory
A discovery with an interesting relation to the Dr. Hyde trial in Kansas City was announced from the chemical and bacteriological laboratories of the University today to the effect that under favorable conditions will hydrocyanic acid in eggs and other nitrogenous foods.
In effect the discovery means that in case hydrocyanic acid is found in the stomach after death it must have been administered before death.
These bacteria cannot live in the presence of free acids and therefore hydrocyanic acid cannot be formed naturally in the human stomach.
Hydrocyanic acid was found in the stomach of Colonel Swepe, of Kansas City, and the evidence was used to decide whether the accused of his murder. Professor Cady says that the stomach of Colonel Swepe was highly acid, and that the hydrocyanic acid found in it could not have been formed by hacteria.
The only possible bearing the discovery can now have on the trial, according to Professor Cady, is to preclude the introduction of testicular effect that was poisoned found in the stomach which was formed naturally.
Professors E. H. S. Bailey, H. P. Cady, and H. W. E曼, chemists, learned in the teriologist, carried on extensive investigations in connection with the Hyde trial and gave some testimony. The discovery that bacteria may be present in the stomach of Colonel Swipe was not previously known. The bacteria is a common one and produced the substances which are quantities. A series of papers will soon be published making the discovery known to the scientific world.
According to Professor Cady, there is little possibility of the bacteria reducing the acid in food in sufficient large quantities to cause death.
