AND STILL THEY WONDER
Two girls met a friend on the campus after a 9:30 class one fine spring morning last week. They stopped to chat, and it was the board part of their conversation.
"Come on, let's go down to Brick." said one of the couple to the friend. "I can't. I have a class," the friend replied.
"Cut it, you did last week."
"All right, but it's your fault if miss a quiz."
And the friend joined the two girl to stroll in the warm spring sunshine. She missed a quiz, wanted an hour and cut a second class. She reposter the act again two days later. It was great fun!
The girl was not a Phi Beta Kappa
She was only an average student
She was not alone. She has many
companions following the same pro-
cedure she is leading.
The next Tuesday the met her friends at the usual hour and the hour of leafing followed. Tomorrow she will probably do it again. And so on for the rest of the semester.
She will do only the minimum work required to "get by." Her term paper will be late. She will "sout" to the court for her work. She will earn a few nights to pay the expenses.
in her camps boating course she will get an "A." Perhaps she will pass her curricular work, but more than likely the pen that writes in red will find her transcript. And nextill she will wonder why. 'Twas ever so.
APPLAUSE FOR THE FACULTY
The Prince of Wales may yet win out in his efforts to help the British to ride horses, since this stroke which allows all trail cars and combines it in England.
Moreover, they conceded with very good grace indeed, considering their long standing opposition to the plan.
The faculty has committed to the de-
sire of the students and by a praticly
unanimous vote decided to wear
gowns at the graduation
exercises.
Considering the difficulty in convincing of a body of people that size that making the final gesture of a college education as effective as possible was a worthy plan, even if troublesome, the faculty came through in good time.
They may have done more than they know. Now that the senior, can stop worrying about what their parade will look like, they will have time to study enough to pass their examinations.
STUDENTS WE DO NOT LIKE
On our black list we have put the name of that student post the telephone fend. It is he who so loves the sound of his instructor's voice that he just must hear its gorgeous outside of class. So when he sees that a 'phone is handy, he proceeds to do his darmedt.
The tired professor is roamed from bed and stumbles to the instrument of torture. Instead of a telegram saying that a rich uncle had died and left all his money to the worn-out faculty member, the confident voice of a student calls to ask if he should bring his text to class the next day. Or perhaps the 'phone rings load and furiously, waking the professor's baby, and all because Percy wants
to know what grade he made in that
last quiz, and whether he can "get by"
with an average of 65.
And then we woody whorl Professor Rock's is so hard. The surprising thing is that he keeps his temper at all. In deposition, he is forced to command that students refrain from calling him at his home, especially after finals have been taken. And isn't it a reasonable request? Very few of us would like to have individuals ringing at all hours of the day and night merely to ask in an unfelling and trivial mood, "Oh, professor, did I pass that 10-minute shot-run this morning?"
THE UNTRAMMELED FUTURE
During the latter half of the month of May and the first two weeks of June, from colleges, universities, high schools—almost every type of institution in the curriculum, in fact—will come thousands of graduates, trained and equipped, supposedly, for the battle of life.
Among these thousands embarking upon the phantom "sea of life" one may find those who would give convention and custom fall sway. And one, without extending himself notnately, may discover the cross grained element; those unconventional ones for when nothing is a certainty, and who make a practice of doubling everything until they satisfy themselves of its authenticity and soundness.
Man has always had to rely upon this second element for his progress; Francis Bacon, at the opening of the seventeenth century, urged the building of a new and true philosophy, at a time when he was yet a mere straping of 22 years. Galileo doubted the teachings of Aristide and proceeded to prove his beliefs.
These new thinkers had to invent and devise, in order to carry on their discoveries. But today man is in position, for the first time, to have an accurate notion of the world and of man himself. He must learn him. His face lies before him, unrailed and unfettered, to do with no one seen fit.
HARSH DAYS
These are harsh days for France. Following the war she strained her every resource to keep faith with her allies, both politically and financially, but self interest crept into interallied relationships and France saw
her hatched enemy beating back and not paying the price which the French people thought a vampished nation should pay.
France became bitter. Her territory had been bad waste; her whole internal industrial structure had been wrecked by the war, and she was having a hard time to keep going in the reconstruction period. Rural France was unwilling to bear the brunt of taxation which the people of other countries had to accept, and rural France vetoed the administrations which proposed heavy taxation.
France thought that she saw Germany slipping out from under her financial responsibilities by the use of the printing press, and some in France wanted to see the printing industry to add to the circulation of frames.
The French are basically a logical and sensible people; they know that the biggest fool is the person or race or country which tries to fool itself. The dream days have passed now, and the French people realize that they are going to have to pay their debts in order to keep going. The French are going to be on the tobaguan, and the nation is riding to "rescue the franc."
With the acceptance by the French people of an adequate taxation program, and a definite statement as to settlement of foreign debts, the franc will reassert its strength, and in time may come back to its pre-war value. The announcement that a tentative agreement has been reached between Secretary Andrew Mellon and Ambassador Berenger by which France underlies to repay to the United States an amount which may reach four billion dollars within the next 62 years, comes as a cheerful note to friends of the tricolor. The common scene policy of "settle up before it is too late" ought to help France save the franc.

OFFICIAL UNIVERSITY BULLETIN
Copy received at the Chancellor's Office; postal a.m.
The faculty of the department of botany will be in charge of the next meeting, on Thursday, May 6, at 7:30, at 1121 Louisiana.
WILLARD CROSIER, President
Editor Daily Kansan:
Boyvey, Amen 125 pound wrestler,
won the national championship in his
weight, and his teammate, Prenty,
185 round class, was Runner-up in
the national collegiate wrestling meet at
Cavallis, Ore., last week.
I congratulate the Council, Sachem,
and the freshman committee on their true interpretation of campus opinion. I will be very sorry for the charge and other colleges and Universities will follow the example. Thus K. U., again learn the college world. I am always for "K. U.
First." Leonard Jones, Columbus,
Maybe G. B. was fortunate to be asleep while Mr. Norton contaminated Mt. Oreand's atmosphere with his cantankrama ballooning.
University of Wisconsin's year book, the Badger, will be without a entire section this year. In its place there will be a campus hall of fame.
Campus Opinion
CONVOCATION
I have just finished reading the Kanan of April 27, and I was especially interested in the new tradition policy as shown by the resolutions passed by the Men's Student Council on March 17.
If Norton wants to make the constitution his Holy Bible, sacred and infallible, may the gods help him, but a cornerstone ceremony is not the Constitution. The railroad attorneys to their political conceits and prejudices—L. G.
There will be an all-University convocation Friday morning, at ten, in Robinson gymnasium. The usual changes in class schedule will be made. The traditions ceremony will be held Friday evening, and will therefore not interfere with class schedules. E. H. LINDLEY,
Anyone who could not detect any allion to the Independent party in Norton's fourth of July blow-off last weekend, including a number of those things nature abhors.
While I was at K. U. I was known as among the most radical against the regulations then in force. I believe the new resolutions satisfy the most radical sentiment of the University and are an offense to none.
Editor Daily Kansan:
Youth's Inferiority Complex
An inferiority complex has developed in the American youth, and there seems to be no immediate remedy in sight. And the said pain is within himself. Not that the average follow of today is really bad or wicked; he is just a "sap." He is not headed for the "bowows," but he is missing out on his potential.
The youth of today has fallen into a rut and is making little effort to get out. Whoever named a certain type as "shecku" was positively inducted by the art gallery, then these "shucku" before a beautiful painting in an art gallery; it will mean nothing more to him than a blunt of paint. He has not the faculties to see the beauty in the scenery or the character portrayed upon the canvas; he can symphony concert; all it will be to him is a dart and screening of instruments; the soul of the author converged through that music will be entirely minced by him. Let this care free toy travel, and the lands he visually imagined will be than a good time. Castle will seem mason of stone, ruins, he will tell you, look like the town junk kard; he can never see the legends that surround the battle-carried moat, nor realize the suffering and hebbon that surrounded him. His life is empty of the finer qualities of life; his kisses is gone.
Editorials From Other Hills
MEN'S GLEE CLUB:
Although Norton yelped considerably without making a straight-forward attack, his name is Hume and the letter was perfectly obvious. If those who voted for LaPollite take a glance at the Gooldie administration their consciences will not burn for having idiotic views with the "goalhead" gang.
The Bible story tells of Eli who two sons were worthless men. Eli in fact was the father of their parent, and it seems that even today our parents are still too good-hearted.
The Mea' Gle Chlu will meet at 7:30 Wednesday evening, May 5, in the Engineering auditorium, for regular check-ins. This meeting is important to ensure that the building's occupants are aware of any safety issues.

A survey of social relationships is being taken by the Student Government Association at the University of Missouri. There are three purposes for this survey: to present content and reasons for lack of wholesome activity; second, a cross section of student opinion regarding existing social activities; third, to make contractive suggestions to organize social activities.

Plain Tales From the Hill
A reporting student was idling in the Kansas news room the other day when a hot news tip came in at the campus editor's desk.
"Are you busy, reporter?" the campus editor asked the ider.
"As busy as a man raking leaves from a hall-tree," came the answer.
