Things seem rather blue today, after a week's rest, when we look at neglected studies, piled up lessons, and boarding club fare. Still it's good to be back. And being back, the faculty expects us to take hold more firmly than before, and work as though we had really rested during the week. Which obviously enough, may be a vain expectation on their part. For the past week has been full of everything but rest. And alas, for the quizzes that come during the next few days. Concentration for a quiz, or for just an hour's recital of lessons seems to be a thing of the past. The mere thought of buckling into things again causes homesickness. But things will straighten out after a little while, and everyone will again be able to study and enjoy it. And despite the chaotic condition that everything seems to have drifted into, we repeat that it's good to be back. A REVISED DIRECTORY It may be necessary to leave the questions as to who are the M. V champions to a straw vote. In a communication last week the plan of having the changed addresses of students printed in the Daily Kansan was urged. It is the custom of the Kansan to print a revised list twice a year and the first one will not be long in forthcoming. Meanwhile, if you have moved, and wish to get in the revised list, it would be a good idea to report your new address to Registrar Foster immediately. JAY HAWKS It is thought that at the meeting of the math "guns" last week, several theories were exploded. A Jay Hawk after a Missouri game is a catbird because as we understand it a catbird is a bird that eats cats. If it were not for Jay Hawks it would not be possible to help reduce the cost of living by furnishing tiger meat for the football team over Thanksgiving. Like making the eagle scream any football speech maker who makes the Jay Hawk squawk is greeted with storms of applause. Let him merely suggest that "We are going to win that game tomorrow" before a stumped herd of rooters gathered together for the purpose of working up enthusiasm, scattering cornstalks over the campus, burning evergreen trees in front of Fraser hall, and killing the two class periods between chapel and dinner—just mention it to such a bunch and the very honey pots on Mt. Olympus will clatter from the demoxestration for several minutes. It is rather difficult to understand why there are Tigers because it was necessary that the tigers and Jay Hawks should be in the same ark during Noah's time, and since the tiger cannot last over an hour and a half when there is a Jay Hawk around it is difficult to understand how he withstood it unpimp dumps at the time mentioned. However there are Jay Hawks and tigers. The Jay Hawk is the only bird that sings cuss words to the tune of "Hallejhah thine the glory" but he is excused, we think, by a poem from the Missouri University Oven one verse of which is given here.— A lesson can be learned from our rain efforts to be tame Heaven for souls but it takes hell To win a football game. It would seem that the season for Jayhawks was not so open as some persons imagined. No water. Shucks, who wants to wash anyway? Well, what's the difference? We'll grow another voice before next all. Cornell and Harvard students have tarted a movement in New York and Massachusetts to have the state legislature enact a state law permitting non-resident students to vote in national elections. AND ON THE SEVENTH DAY AND ON THE SEVENTH DAY— What did yesterday amount to for you? We asked that of some six or seven fellows, and received various answers. To one it meant a day to catch up the work that he had missed during the week. To another it meant a day to spend absolutely quiet. To a third a day to read the papers, to loaf around the room, to have some talks with the fellows. To another it meant one long strain of fussing. But to no one did it mean what Sunday should mean. From every standpoint, Sunday should be a day for a "change of labors." It should keep you from getting stale. If you are in the custom of working inside all week, your religion, on the seventh day, should be to get outside. To take a long walk in the woods, or out in the country, to paddle on the lake—anything but the regular routine work. If you are outdoors all of the week, a long day loafing around the room with a book and a pipe will help. Anything to take your mind off the steady work. And we wish to remark that there are a number of instructors who are fond of remarking that your section has three days less time laboratory time than the other sections, but that doesn't make any difference—you have got to get it done. But as we understand a laboratory course, you are supposed to put in the usual amount of time, the same as all other men. As you are not given credit for the extra work, why do it? And there are others who tell you that "the building will be open Sunday for all those who wish to work." Is that not thoughtful of them? We are not telling you that on Sunday you must go to church. That is a matter that you must decide for yourself. But if a day tramping, with the yellow leaves crackling under foot, and the water lapping against the gray stones is not enough to give you courage to start the new week, more religion can't and will never do it.—Wisconsin Daily News. OUT OF THE MOUTHS OF WISE OLD BOYS Ancient learning may be distinguished into three periods: Its commencement, or the age of postits; its commencement, or the age of critics; and its decline, or the age of critics. In the poetical age, commentators few, but might have, in some respects, made themselves philosophical, their assistance must necessarily become obvious; yet, as if the nearer we approached perseverance may have forced their directions, in this period they began to grow numerous. But when polite learning was no move, then it became necessary that most formable appearance—Goldsmith. LEARNING.

"You must look for one," said the King, "at whose door there are no aggrieved spirits of disembodied patients." The lictors went off, but at the house of every doctor they visited there were crowds of wailing鬼 hanging about. At last they found a doctor who was only a single shade, and cried out, "This man is evidently the skilful one we are in search of." On inquiry, however, they discovered that he had only started practice the day before. —From the Chinese. Let me live in my house by the side of the road Away from home —Harvard Lampoon.

O yet we trust that somehow good Will be the final goal of ill, Defects of doubt, and taints of blood; That nothing walks with aimless That not one life shall be destroyed, or case as rubbish to the void, When he made the pile complete; That not a moth with vain desire is shrivelled in a fruitless fire, or but subserves another's gain. Behold, we know not anything; I can but trust that good shall fail At last--far off--at last, to all. And every winter change to spring. So runs my dreams; but what am I? An infant crying in the night: An infant crying for the light: An infant crying in the light: An infant crying for the light! And with no language but a cry. —Alfred Tennison. The High School Student WHO IS University of Kansas LAWRENCE The committee which places University teachers placed 147 graduates in positions this year at an average salary of $91 a month. The Cleaner and Dyer Student Rates would naturally prefer to be the kind of teacher who is SOUGHT BY THE BEST POSITIONS because he knows the WHAT of the subjects to be taught and the HOW of teaching them. Four hundred graduates of the University of Kansas now hold good teaching positions in Kansas.
