SUNDAY, MARCH 14, 1925
"Baby, Spring Day Due" reads a headline. Long overdue and almost outwired, "It won't it?"
There has been no financial drive on the campus for a day or two now. Why not start a fund for blind dukes?
FUMBLING SPEAKERS
Too little time is given to teaching the technique of oral presentation of facts. The average student can think only on paper, if at all.
In the old days students learned creations and studied elocution. They learned to think on their feet. Today, the average student has little or no interpersonal ability. He never stops to think, and then says little or nothing.
The college does not need to make orators, but it does need to teach students to present what they have to pay in an orderly and understated fashion. The student should be taught to think before he speaks and then to speak, not unfamiliar.
The "Tuff-Pant Prom" seems to have furnished the column more material than any other single event which has taken place on the Hill this year. Can't we have another please?
CYNICS AND WINTER
Drig. Gun. Saw Butler says, that "you can't drink in the navy." No, not in General Butler's sight.
CYNIA AND WILLIE
"Where is the old customed college student who studies at night and comes to class next day with his becom prepared?" asks a gyne from Tampa.
And the "Bulletin," Emporia State Teachers' College publication, come back with the statement that many of them are attending that institute.
Emperor Nouman has no monopoly on three students. Neither is it at all likely that the Emperor school has an over supply of students who show up at roll-off every day with lessons in perfect form.
It has been a hard winter. As every winter comes to a close, cynics flourish everywhere. Students never study more advanced athletics are on the decline, everyone is out for skiing gait, it snows or rains every weeknd, the instructors assign more work every day…ow, what’s the use?
Then the sun begins to warm things up. The grass turn green, birds are coming back, students appear on the campus battles and coattails, windows are thrown open. The world books 100 per cent more cheerful.
There is nothing more dently to the sort of eponymm expressed above than the first day of spring. Things do not improve but there does appear to be hope. That's all the matter with the eponym who makes this scathing comment on college students—he's just tired of winter. Cheer up! Spring is almost here.
After all it's not such an unusual thing to be elected speaker of the House. There are thousands of housewives throughout the country who hold down that position.
--let them beware lest they come to scoffe and remain to pray. They have a queer power, those little bits of soiled paper with a history of the struggles and hopes of man.
"Women Like Home Job" reads a headline on a news story about women members of the house of representatives. We hope that they do a good job of spring house cleaning.
The U. S. treasury has authorized the issuance of two million new dollar bills guaranteed to "last longer." We doubt if they'll last any longer on Mt. Orcad, but we are willing to test them.
TGO MANY LAWS
We are called the most haweless or all nations, but small wonder when we consider the number of laws that exists. The Detroit News recently estimated that it would take eight years of solid reading, eight hours every day, including Sunday and holidays, to read the state, national and city laws and regulations, not to mention the new ones that had been passed in the meantime.
An analogy to that problem exists on the campus today. "There are too many student council laws. Many of them are obsolete, forgotten, or ignored. Many of them are unwise, ineffective and troublesome.
The campus needs a law reform. Abolish the laws which are not now enforced, form new, intelligent, effective rules of conduct, and the University will be able to function better.
It seems to be characteristic of the American people to attempt to remedy every evil by a law. President Coolidge recently said that instead of trying to change the attitudes and conduct of the people who break laws, we go out and pass new ones, to make them keep the ones they are already breaking. 'Can't it on the campus?'
Our idea of the height of optimism in the student who put off buying a spring suit because he thought that he could outguess the other five thousand or so in the annual all-valley guessing content.
POETRY AND MUSIC
Poetry and music—two great arts, each perfectly preserved in itself, and unassured when the one flows harmoniously into the other. What other sensation can call forth the same feelings; can soothe us in one moment and stir us to high resolves and actions in the next? Most of all it is so easy for us to go through this wonderful experience that has always the power to lift us out of ourselves. Yes, easily experienced----let them beware lest they come to scoffe and remain to pray. They have a queer power, those little bits of soiled paper with a history of the struggles and hopes of man.
A busy classroom where open books and rupt attention are the custom. Here those are gathered that are loves of poetry and of one poet. The instructor, not a teacher, but one who guides others to see the beauties that he himself loves so deeply, begins to read. It is a selection from *the "Adonais" of Shelley, that melancholy hants to the dead Kears.
Suddenly above the smoothly-flowing words, there rises a deeper note and the rich, resonant tones of an organ break forth. They fill the air, the solenm, slow notes blending with the dirge that the instructor reads. One amplifies and lends a deeper meaning to the other. For a few short moments, the everyday world drops away. Then, as quickly as it arose, the sounds fade and the unknown player ceases. The voice goes on but something is lacking, a something that may never be recovered. Only a memory remains.
STAMP COLLECTORS
"Say Jack, mind if I take the stamp off that letter you got from Turkey?" a student 'asked bis room mate one night a little more than two years ago.
"I don't care, but I don't see what you want with it," replied his room mate, but another freshman from the next room was differently affected. His eyes lighted.
There is something strange about this hobby of stamp collecting. It is like leprosy: hard to catch and once caught it is incurable. If some students could see their stair professors who are addicted to the disease go into centuries over a soiled piece of paper they might perhaps feel that after all science is right and there is in the best of an u slight strain of insanity, but
"So you collect stamps. I used to collect them too, but I didn't suppose anyone in K. U. did." And As webward would put it, that was the beginning of a beautiful friendship and also of the K. U. Philatelic Society. The K. U. Philatelic Society is the only college organization of its kind in the country. Almost every city boasts its club of stamp collectors, but K. U. was the first college to have an organization devoted to the "hobby of kids and kings."
Editorials From Other Hills
When Serge Played the Bass Viol
Serge Koussevitzky received an honorary degree the other day from Brown University. And when it came time for Serge to express his thanks, he came forward and play the customary speech. For Serge Koussevitzky is conductor of the Boston Symphony orchestra. He said his inability to speak the English language made it hard to put his thanks in words.
(Daily Cellorian)
That action of Sergey's was most original, thoughtful and tolerant. How few men in the world there are who are satisfied with limiting themselves to their own field.

Two colored students were discussing their shortcomings in the organic chemistry laboratory.
"Boy," said one, "You don't half appreciate how little I know about this subject. When Doctor Daina asks me a question I feel just like a molecule with all the atoms picked out of it."
“Yeah,” replied the other, as he extracted his finger from a test tube, where it had been fastened for 10 minutes past. “Sometimes I feel like if all my brains are suffocated I would have enough to color hair paper.”
