EDUCATION AND THINGS (By William Allen White)
Four thousand young people are on this campus who believe they want an education. Some of them really desire it; a few will get it. Most of them will get something else. Many will get grades and a knowledge of text books. More than many will get degrees from the various schools. Nearly every one will get some knowledge of the social amenities which is as good a substitute for an education as they can carry. But only a precious few will get an education.
An education is not a lot of assorted information upon various academic subjects. An education is the blessing of the man or woman who has a mind and a heart so trained that he can look at both sides of a proposition; can accept and digest the best available information upon the subject and so can distinguish the true from the false, the real from the sham. Unless a student graduating from college has formed a habit of facing reality, refusing to be deceived by sentimentality and has acquired a trained nose for sensing reality, he is a door and a dullard no matter how many Phi Beta Kappa keys his jangles; how well he can dance; to how many degrees he tacks after his name.
Books and tests will help the wise; but they only befuddle the fool. If K. U. this year turns into the life of this state, four hundred young men and women, it will have more than justified the state in its endeavors, and will have surprised delightfully its siner friends!
A WORD TO THE WISE
To freshmen and sophomores, a word of warning, to junior and senior, a consolation.
Tuesday and Wednesday during enrollment there were many juniors and seniors with their transcripts stamped "Not permitted to take junior or senior work until exercise has been completed," or words to that effect. From these we were many signs of regret and much anxiety about filling out courses, all because exercise had been dropped some time in the past.
But the queer thing about the situation is that the junior or senior who is now enrolled in gym was the sophomore or freshman of a year or two age who thought exercise would be easier to take later on.
He has lived and learned. He knows now that when he is entering his major department his schedules become heavier. His activities have increased and instead of finding more time in his last two years to take gym, he realizes the folly of his act.
THE GROUP SYSTEM
With the reorganization of the women's group system on the campus comes the hope that the women will participate more whole-heartedly in the project than ever before. New women are especially invited to take part as a means of increasing their circle of acquaintances on the Hill. The group system affords to women, who are not members of any organized house, an opportunity to take part in all activities which have heretofore been closed to them. Because the plan had proved successful at other schools, the W. S. G. A. instituted it at Kansas three years ago.
But the group system has not
worked out as well here as it has in other places.
For various reasons, the women of the University have not responded as the organizers had hoped. The real benefits of the system have only been gained by a few small groups which have held together throughout the year and which have gone about systematically to achieve their aim. The success of these few has shown that the system can be "put across" on this empties. Women have the chance to enter a wide variety of social and athletic activities, which would never be possible without the group system.
This year, the committee in charge has dropped the plan followed in the first two years of the group system's operation on the campus. Reorganization has put the project on a new basis which it is hoped will be more practical in operation. The final success of this new plan depends not on the W. S. G. A. but on the individual women of the school themselves. If they do not rise to the opportunity presented, then the plan will be a failure.
This year will show conclusively bother or not women of this University want the group system.

Mr. White never refuses to do the University Daily Kansas a favor when he is asked. The Kansan has a feather in its cap with an original editorial by the widely known editor for it in the only newspaper outside of the Emporia Gazette that Mr. White graces with the pen tantus for a half-century measured the heart-throbs of men.

So far as writing goes, that's exactly what you get in the Evershard Utility Unit. A year's supply of erasers [6], Evershard Red Top headlets [6] tubes, and a genuine orange-enamel Evershard pencil [1] that will last you from now on.
You get them all in the smart little red

[$1.50] for a single smack [$1.00]. It's a
bargain, and you can shake your good write
