Address all communications to UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN, Lawrence. The Daily Kansan aims to picture the undergraduate life of the University of Kansas; to go further than merely printing the news by standing for the ideals the University holds; to play no favorites; to be clean; to be cheerful; to be charitable; to be courageous; to leave more serious problems to waver heads; in all, to serve to the best of its ability the students of the University. FRIDAY, MAY 2, 1913 Every man truly lives so long as he acts his nature or some way makes good the faculties of himself. —Sir Thomas Brown. Our visitors will appreciate the force of the expression, "breezy Mount Oread." OUR GUESTS Today and tomorrow we have as our guests, a large number of visitors, here for the Exposition and the high school events. The students of the University stand as hosts and hostesses. Just because there is a committee whose duty it is to show visitors around, we should not consider that we have nothing to do. Now is an unexcelled opportunity to display the real Kansas spirit by being on hand to explain the "where, when and why" of everything that is to take place. It all depends on the work of the individual students, on you and me. During these two days the work of all departments of the University will be shown, and the state will be made more familiar with the benefits which it receives from Mt. Oread. But a kindly, courteous reception that will show the true character of the students and faculty 6f the University will impress visitors as much as all the wealth of displays and entertainments. That professor whose students sprang to rescue him from the fake encounter with a janitor must have an unusually strong hold on the affections of his class. It is a relief that no members of the K. N. G. flunked in the inspection recently. THE DEWY MORN Those folks who object that the dewy morn spoils the shine on their shoes have no poetry in their souls. They do not appreciate the glory of the golden orb of day rising from the eastern horizon, they do not hear the song birds singing their love songs amid the foliage, they miss the beauty of the blooming flowers and the whispering of the rustling leaves, they see only water in the million glistening diamonds on the grass—and so forth in a number of other particulars that the poets have sung about so well that it is not necessary to take time here to better their job. The student—or professor—who ties in bed until half after seven and then makes a frantic rush for his eight o'clock class, misses the best part of the day. The invigorating atmosphere of the early morning is the best possible cure for the feeling of laziness and lassitude which clings to one these days. A game of tennis, a short stroll, or study out-of-doors if you feel studious—will give you an appetite for breakfast, and put "pep" in you for the rest of the day. You may not be looking for poetry in the dewy morn, but even if you are not you can find there a sure flank for flunks and spring fever. We are going to try it ourselves some day. The next great reform should be a law to keep the windows shut in the chemistry and medical laboratories. What has become of the boob who suggested that a good class memorial would be the planting of trees around the Daily Kansan office to keep the wind out? THE COLLEGE REPORTER Just a hidden cog somewhere in the innest part of the college newspaper machine is the reporter. He works under command; he soils the lawn; he sits in his own resourceful way; he loves courtesy, recreation, confidence and human treatment. he feels the pulse beat of the college, has his hand on the hidden springs of movements, asks questions denied the most inquisitive and hunts ever for the novel, the new and the interesting. His tasks are leg-work, done between classes, when he meets at night. Each day he turns in his little grist of matter, now a note, now an article, now an interview. The results of his hour of labor the college public disposes of in two glances. Errors it blames to him. Facts desired it gleans in silence. It inquires not into the writer of the things that please; it expresses appreciation never; for it accepts all this as a matter of course. The important is his unroutine routine factually. He labors only for the joy of the work. He heglans his regard in rereading in the columns of the paper the story which the public knows not is his own—De Pauw daily. Cyrus (before curtain rises)—Come on Mirandi, let's get our money back. We seen this gold-durmed astosbes show last year. THE SAD, SAD GRIND OF OUR COLLEGE LIFE —Stanford Chaparral. Husband—Ob. I suppose the same as you would if you were left a Wife—What would you do, George, if you were left a widower? Wife--Horrid wretch! And you told me you could never care for anybody else.—Siren. Men are usually tempted by the devil, but an idle man positively tempts the devil—Spanish proverb. OUT OF THE MOUTHS OF WISE OLD BOYS The mattock will make a deeper hole in the ground than lightning. —Horace Mann. Depth of will depends upon depth of emotion—Martensen. We must tramp upon our feelings when principle is at stake. —S. J. Wilson. The Daily Kansan will publish in this space favorite verses of its readers. Contributions welcome—The Editor.

The failings of others can never save you; o have a corn maze so kindly Do it so bravely, so kindly, so well. Angels will hasten the story to tell. Dare to be right! dare to be true! Stand like a hero, and battle till death! —Anon.
