TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 9, 1926 ARE THE WOMEN SINCERET Reports coming to the ears of the Kansan have it that this dropping of the old party lines on the part of W. S. G. A. is "a piece of bank." It is only a rumor, and the Kansan seriously hopes that it will prove to be a false one. What good will an all-University primary system be, if secret circle methods are employed to nominate candidates, and the various organized houses are again pledged to support certain candidates? An inner circle member of one of the women's political parties has said that "we are going to go ahead and decide on the people we want to run and then support them, first in the primary convention and afterwards in the all-University election." If this woman's statement in the will of members of both the Black Domino and the Women's Representative Party, then K. U. women are trying to put one over on Dean Husband. Kim Husband has tried for years to get the two women's parties to agree to disband. If, after they have "disbanded," they again oppose each other at election time, Kansas women will have proved that they are not above practices which are unethical and dishonest. If student elections are in the least worthy, if the issues are important and the candidates are capable and qualified, then there is no reason for organized groups to "vote her straight." Outwardly, W. S. G. A. and the women's parties have taken a decidedly forward step in the history of K. U. politics. Are they sincere? KANSAS IDEAS OF DISCIPLINE "I have known boys caught in scraps to later become good reliable students at another school. I have often helped many of them to obtain entrance in other schools. I have also known other colleges, the University of Kansas, for instance, to refute entrance to a student who has been put out of another school," President Brooks of the University of Missouri is reported in a recent interview as saying. The University of Kansas has always laughed under the impression that the idea of disciplinary measures was to enforce discipline; and Kansas has always thought that discipline like charity belongs at home, and that in administering to our own students we have a big enough job without becoming an anlym for refugees from other schools. Doctor Brooks is further quoted as saying, "Jackson is neither expelled nor suspended. Many in his status have retired from school for a brief period of time and later returned. They have usually attended another school meanwhile." If the purpose of Missouri's disciplinary measures, however, is to aid "Pete" Jackson in recovering from some of his complexes, we would suggest a season of hard work, devoid of hero-worship, outside of school. If on the other hand the university merely feels that Jackson needs a change of air to permit his soul to grow, we suggest that it send him to Palm Beach with all expenses paid. FACULTY SHOULD PLAY FAIR Westerday when a student asked for several late magazines at the reserve desk in Watson Library he was told by the librarian that the periodicals in question had been checked out that morning by a University instructor. In reply to a query as to how soon they would be returned the librarian answered that it depended on the individual; they might be returned in a day, a week, a month, or even later. Inasmuch as there had been only one copy of each of the magazines in question at the library the student was unable to read the articles in the periodicals that his instructor had assigned for the class next day. The student was carrying a henry schedule and his time was as apportioned that the failure to secure the magazines when he needed them threw him entirely off his schedule. Under the library rules magazines are not to be taken from the library. Students are never allowed to check them out. A violation of this rule may draw as a penalty revocation of library privileges. Why should the faculty be an exeption? The present case is not new. The situation appears several times each semester. Often reserve books are checked out by instructor and kept for weeks. Constant reminders and calls of the librarians often fail to bring about return of the books. A short time ago a student asked for a book and found that the instructor had checked it out two months before had not yet returned it. The situation demands immediate attention if instructors are to continue to assign magazine readings at the library. Since this use of magazines in curricular work is fundamentally important in various courses it is imperative that magazines be on receive when students call to do their reading assignments. Enforcement of the magazine rule against faculty as well as students is the way to remedy the trouble. In fairness to all it must be done. Why can't the faculty play fair? BLUE LAWS Another resurrection has been revealed! Sunday "blue laws," one hundred and twenty-three years old have been resurrected from the dustbath to enclose a preace or. Or at least, Nashville, Tenn., believes that they will serve a purpose—that of making the Sabbath as tame as it must be when these laws were first put on the statute books. When a city like Emporia puts restrictions on the operation of pool halls on Sunday, there may be asked to be some grounds for the action. But rules that forbid the playing of games, the running of transportation systems, and even the selling of gasoline are extremely foolish and their enforcement undoubtedly can be only superficial. the authorities who so blithely unearthed the ancient laws were under the impression that the movement would stimulate a proper attitude toward the Sabbath, they will be most agreeably disappointed. Perhaps Nashville may seem a little quiet, but isn't it possible that its inmates may violate even the more reasonable laws when they are banned from taking part in the most harmless forms of recreation? Surely there is nothing intrinsically wrong in buying an ice-cream soda, or playing a game of golf, or driving a car. An attitude of reverence cannot be instilled by legislation which deprives many of their only opportunity for recreation and relaxation during the entire week. OFFICIAL DISCOURTESY A few days ago a student went to the Administration building to pay a departmental fee and was informed as to the amount. In writing his check he made a mistake. He was informed of his error by a shout, "I said two dollars. Does that sink in?" The student explained that the mistake was due to misunderstanding and the answer he received was, "Well, that's what you come to school for, is to learn how to understand things."

D. M. SWAITHOUT, Director. JAYHAWKER ADVISORY COMMITTEE: laboring under the impression that he was an official with the right to administer haw-laws, the student took his receipt and left. There will be a meeting of the Jayhawk Advisory Committee at 4:30, p. m. Wednesday, in the Jayhawk office. L. N. FILL, Chairman, Plain Tales From the Hill It is unfortunate that a student, paying a fee for which the only possible excuse is the maintenance of a department working on an inadequate budget, should be met by a person of superior and unintolerant air who leaves the impression that he is conferring a favor by accepting the money of the timid soul across the counter. It does not tend to increase good feeling. Sociology instructor—Are there any organized societies among animals? First student—Sure, the bees are organized. S. I.-That's right. Any others. Second student—How about an art? L-Yes, the art are organized for this work. Do you know of any art? Third student (from the back of the room)—The Elks are organized, I guess. He was a real college fellow. His trousers proved it. They were baggy "hallows." At the knee they were extremely baggy. He strolled over to the car track near the pennant to await the trolley. While he stood there waiting patiously there walked up a youthful freshman. The freshman hated and gratched at the driver's seat after minutes of steady watching, the freshman could stand it no longer and blurted out: "Well, why don't you go ahead and jump?" Professor Hopkins, disdibly, in *Principles of Argument: "When you place the words" since," therefore, or "consequently" in a chain of readiness, walking backwards, and your foot, walking backwards, and your boots front side before!" Student (going down the Hill) "What's your hurry?" Second student (doing same) "Boy, this is the easiest walking ever get!" Miriam McClelland (before edit, rial class)—Out of the way. I've got to go get some fresh gum. This here's killin' me. On Other Hills --as children of kindergarten age." It is believed that "they are likely to react as men and women." Lehigh University has one of the most unusual mascots in the country. It is a mud turtle which was discovered making it's way across the muddy field during signal practice. It was christened "Krockum" and adopted by the team. After each game the score is carved on his shell. Hazing has been abolished at the Connecticut Agricultural College because one freshman was seriously injured that might cause physical and personal harm such as cold showers and the compressive ruling. Ohio State faculty have adopted a liberal classroom policy. At the beginning of each course the professors explain the system to be followed, the routine of classwork, and the form of assessment suggested, not required. Class discussion is a feature in many of the courses. The students are "treated as young men and women rather than as children of kindergarten age." It Students at the University of Illinois taking courses in the English department were victims of some abuse during an interruption period. A notice was placed on the bulletin board to the effect that there would be no more examinations in English. However, as soon as the police responded to this, he immediately announced it as unofficial and examinations proceeded on the arranged schedule.
