Battered at second-round mail matter September 21, 2013, after he was kicked by Kansas, under the rules of March 8, 1967, and on Sunday morning by students in the State College of Kansas, from the front of the impression
TUESDAY, APRIL 6, 1926
POPULAR OPINION
Many people over the state have demanded that certain men be barred from speaking on the campus because of suspicions that they are not always popular.
Perhaps the speakers have poorly founded opinions, and again there is the possibility that judgment of the good citizen over the state in fault. But whether the speaker has an opinion that is approved of or not, the student body is entitled to hear him.
Throughout the past, progress has been made by questioning the idea, the institutions, in fact, everything that existed, and in shooling and so changing and creating that whatever existed was there because there was a good reason for it. The ultimate aim should not be to protect and keep alive an institution just because our father did, or to hold to an idea, a hatred or a prejudice just because they did; but to find out the facts and then from the knowledge to do that thing which is best for the society of today and tomorrow.
If speakers were barred from the campus just because they had ideas different from those of the majority of people, the students would be cut off from an opportunity to get a new viewpoint, to acquire a new angle to a situation, to get more information about it.
If the University wishes to maintain its position as a place of learning and an institution where people are taught to think, it cannot ban speakers from the campus just because someone in the state does not agree with what is said.
Some prognanda may be put out but certainly students and instructors should be about as able to decide what is bunk and as able to discriminate as anybody else. The Uni verity should be allowed to listen to these men with different ideas for they, like Columbus, may not be such bigools after all.
Every day robbers are getting braver and braver. Only last week three men held up a poker game in which 14 women were participating;
AUTOMOBILE MORALITY OR
MORTALITY?
Today resolutions passed by the Men's Student Council go into effect, and only a limited number of cars will be allowed to park on the campus. The traffic situation on the Hill had reached the point where something had to be done. It remains to be seen whether the new ruling will adequately meet the situation.
Parked cars do not do the damage that speeding does, do yet if morals can be developed among the drivers of cars, in respect to parking and to driving, many lives may be spared from either injury or death. Certainly mortality is to be preferred to mortality.
Some people will be disappointed because they were not granted a license to park on the campus, but good sportmanship demands that they abide by the rules of the council. Some universities have even gone so far as to bar all automobiles from their campuses. It is to be hoped that Kansas will not be forced to take such action.
We see in the paper that the Oark Onion Growers have organized. This has all the earmarks of a strong union.
PROFESSORIAL CALIBANS
He is with us again—the perennial pessimist of a professor who gives quizzes the day after vacations. He is the gleefly malewable instructor who fills the speeding hours of a holiday with dread visions of quiz books and cramming; who turns long anticipated diversions into horrors rife with misgivings; who grims友善ly out of the ambient darkness of night at harassed students, and who in the death's head at the banquet. He is the humg, professional reincarnation of Caliban.
Many students are able to spend the Easter vacation with their families only by traveling all night in order to return for Tuesday's classes. They are worn and mentally dull, and their response is in no respect representative of their usual standard. There is no justice in scoring them under such conditions.
Kansas offers perhaps the shortest Easter vacation of any school in the valley. It would be the least possible compensation for professors to insure the leisure of students during this time by making no assignments over the holidays, let alone by not scheduling quizzes for the day following vacation.
Law and order is bound to have its way. The 25 deputy sheriffs in New Jersey who were detailed to catch an encapel, one-legged convict finally handed him.
According to the Journal World,
"Dean Dyer Speaks on Choosing a Vacation."
There was real news in the Douglas County Republican's headline: "Many Stop to Admire Art," for all together too many of us do it on the run.
Editorial of the Day
Human Nature in the College (England, City, State)
It is a bit hard to get excited over the tour of a Socialist speaker among the colleges. The American college student knows better than he both sides' current questions; or, rather, he resents being told that he shall bear only one side. Any prognagandist is likely to have a chance to be admitted unless he is advenienced by attempts to break up his meeting. The average student might not care to hear him; but he doesn't enjoy being told that he must not hear him. That is human nature.
The young men and women in college are average Americans, with instinctive and reasoned adherence to American ideals. We should say three was no occasion to worry lest they be swept off their feet by the forces of nature which obviously will not work in this hard-wolved world.
At the Concert
Amelita Galli-Curel proved to the world last night that John McCormack has nothing on her as a "popular singer" she is known for. She sang in Killen City to capacity and held the audience enthralled through 13 programmed numbers and more than a dozen encores. The prowess of Ms. Galli-Curel, "Receptive or Romanza" from "Dinosahe," "Prime Prison" by Hahn and the "Poloniae" from "Migon" approached the heights of musical art, and are popular when Galli-Gurel sings.
Forty or more curtain calls, flowers in perfusion, and so many encounters that they were lost track of in the seramble—that was the way that the author found himself enriched by the great coloratura, and the crowd was reluctant to leave even after "Home Sweet Home" with its message of finality. "Snow River," "Lindy Lou," "Cavellies," "Long, Long," "The Snow Queen," "Old Wheat Song" and "Carane" were some of the songs which capitulated the popular taste.
The personality of the singer was enhanced by her striking costume of spun golden glory set off by red lacquer notes at sach and hem with a flaming comb of red magnification forming a halo above her brunette head. Homer Samuel's pianist and bass player, his wife'sGame paintings and gave a group of solos in his own quietly artistic style. Manuel Berenguer assisted ably, as usual at a Gall-Curci concert, with his guitar.

Men who have once worn a Cornell come back for it again and again. For three seasons it's been the Society Brand favorite. Here it is once more—not the same suit, but the same style idea, carried out in the way that's smartest for Spring.
Again they want the CORNELL Society Brand
