TUESDAY, MARCH 9, 1926 Whatever might be said to the contrary, a citizen has more respect for laws than for in-laws. LAWRENCE IS WAITING Spring is here and still Lawrence awaits the coming of the drama. Shows come and go, but not to Lawrence. The manager of the local theaters announced in a statement appearing in the Kansas for Nov. 12, 1025, that he was doing everything possible to secure road shows of high standard and in service to the community, our planning to bring shows to Lawrence despite the small amount of profit in them. Two shows were announced as booked for the near future, "Apple Sauce" and "The Gorilla." "Apple Sauce" appeared here in January, "The Gorilla" has failed to appear "The Gingham Girl" was shown during the Christmas vacation, a time when most students were out of town, and as a result many never knew the production was here. Meanwhile the community has been awaiting the announcement of some good attractions coming to Lawrence. As they wait, Walte Whiteside, Mrs. Fike, The Stone and Walter Hampen play in Topksi and Kansas City. The Stores are appearing in Kansas sas city now. E. H. Southern will be there the week following next week. They are so near, and yet so far, from Lawrence. Since no shows have been announced to appear in Lawrence in the future, the public has begun to wonder if the companies playing in Kansas City might not stop for at least a one-night stand. It may be out of the question to secure bookings with the bigger companies for a city the size of Lawrence. The students and townpeople do not know. They only wonder if any effort has been made. They want the drama and good show which have been promised, or they would like to know why these companies are passing up this city. From the Kanans' use of capital letters one evidently thinks the "Pacific movement" is an oceanic disturbance. DOLL RAG TACTICS Missouri is afflicted, and her disease, judging from the symptoms, is that fatal malnutrition known as "second childhood." Kansas, from Missouri's teary-eyed reports, got rough, and tried to tell Missouri what to do. Whereupon Missouri resorted to the inevitable come back of infants and decided to pick up her doll rags and go home. She just wouldn't play that way. No doubt Missouri's affliction is serious. It must be or she would recognize the fact that while picking up her dell rags and going home in this case happened to be sending her relay team to the Texas instead of the Kansas relays, it could be construed to mean nothing else than what, with the aid of certain communications, it has been construed to mean. Kansas can, at least, register one hope—that the malady isn't chronic. The women at Oklahoma A. & M. are to be taught to pitch horse shoes. We always thought rolling pins and flat irons did the work effectively, but since a change is to be made, modern appliances should be used, such as spare tires and engine blocks. THE LAWLESS LAW The high hand of the law recently demaned itself to the extent that it deputized a prejudiced and somewhat narrow-minded citizen to perform its duties for it. The two of the two boys who were accused by the frequent attacks of a fracam to walk 30 meters by the man against whom they had committed a crime, is a disgraced example of the negligence of the law. Quite aside from any humanitarian principles which would make one fully qualified to protect against such an unclevied method of punishment, any citizen could protect bodily and notly against the law depovishing a man who would be considered too prejudiced to sit on a jury, but above judge the crime, and prescribe an inflict the punishment. The man whose ear was stolen was no doubt at the time incurred at the violation of his property. He viewing the matter from any but the resembled impugned, unbiased regard for strict fact divorced from sentiment. If such a practice as this continues the most law abiding have good reason to shiver. Vision the wrath and severe punishment our neighbor would gladly inflict upon us when our chickens eat their gardens, when our audio screeches, or when the baby lilies the night air with hoots. Mexico is granting divorces by mail. What will happen when this backward nation takes up radio? THEATER AUDIENCE PSY- CHOLOGY It is an accepted fact that a crowd a less intellectual and more emotional than the individuals who come it. Perhaps that accounts for he effect "The Vanishing American," which was shown at a local theatre art week, had upon the crowds whie watched Naophone and his cohorts avert about the silver sheet. Semi-instilated soils and frequent dabing of eyes on the part of at least every-five per cent of the audience made it evident that the hardship he little hand of Indian braves was undergoing were having their office on the emotions of the audience. Perhaps emotional contagion, characteristic of mind among crowds, something to do with the general lampiness of the occasion. Certainly one needed every particle of his will power to remain dry eyed when all bout him were in tears. The writer and the director of "Tha' Jamishing American" apparently are masters of the thing called "crow psychology," for to have such an elf upon the heterogeneous crowd hat makes up the average theatre audience demands understanding a well as broad emotional appeal. "Jury Hangs in Liquor Case" says a headline. Hard on the jury. THE RADICAL TREND THE RADICAL TRENDS The very backbone of American conservation agriculture—an farm often fallen in line with his contemporaries and has developed unstemming radical tendencies. This is the principal fact brought out by he National Industrial Conference board in its latest report. A new economic maladjustment is seen as the basis of this tendency high, if allowed to grow, may so easily affect the structure of nations business. This is all a part of the successful effort of agriculture tocep up with general economic developments. Since 1880 there hasen a steady decline in farm production and, since the beginning ofthe resent century, the farmer has not audit it profitable to maintain the ame rate of increase ofproduction s that which existed previous to hat time. Unorganized and isolatedhe agricultural population has been creed to resort to political pressurea obtain a certain measure of relief. This curious situation is in marked contrast to recent developments in he urban population, which has exhibited a growing tendency towardobservation. An unusual reversalf roles thus is brought about whichas its significance for the future.Past tendencies, at least, bear outhe view that some serious maladjustment is at the bottom ofthe question and that this must first be overcome.

(The Daily Lariat) Stand one hundred mothers in a row and ask them their additions for their young sons and every one of them will tell you they want them to do something with their beads and not with their hands.
