Received Kansas, under the act of March 1, 1852, and on Saturday by a letter from him on Sunday by his colleague in密歇根州. Upon the verisuf of Kansas, from the press of the city of Kansas. USELESS ADVICE Now that final examinations are upon us with all their fierce destructiveness, as one might mildly put it, it is quite evident to see that is it too late for the Kansan to editorialize further upon them, in the vain hope of rousing the sluggards and luggages to some sort of frenzied action. The editorial columns of the Kansan now should be filled with dire warnings of the next spring finale, going upon the theory that students at present in the threes of cramming will make a sacred sword to "do their daily bit at the library next semester" in order that the terrible nightmare called "Quizzes" may never bother again. In the past, we well remember, said columns at this time, were filled with aforementioned warnings. One has only to glance at this time to see the infeasibility of pursuing such a fruitless policy further. The barrased students, arms filled with books and papers—the overcrowded library—the lights burning in rooms until the wee small hearth—these prove indisputably the falibility of editorial warnings. DOWN WITH EVERYTHING Let it go down on record that we hereby refuse to fill the column with such ambiguous, uncle and decadent advice. We even heard once of a man who attempted to halt the revolution of the earth on its axis. Wity him; he has our heartfelt sympathy. "His Feet Couldn't Keep Up," says a headline in discussing a recent Charleston accident. During the recent cold wave we've had difficulty keeping ours down! DOWN WITH Nine hundred students representing 176 colleagues and 20 denominations, gathered at Evanston, Illinois, for the Interdenominational Student Conference during the holidays. It was a vile group, constantly demanding recognition from the floor, ever ready to express an opinion. It attacked everything, it questioned everything. It has been accused of being radical, of being led by a few fanatics and more or less irresponsible parties. Seemingly there was nothing slow about the conference; for after four days, nine hours to the day, the conference succeeded in turning out the following proposals: That the church excommunicate war, oppose military training in schools and favor internationalism through a World Court, league or disarmament; that it act as a nider in industrial relations; that it discriminate knowledge of birth control; that it continue missions but divorce them from propaganda for seets, powers, and specific civilizations. Rather a prodigious program for a group of students. That they did not think through the propositions which were proposed is quite evident. For instance, by a large majority, the students voted against compulsory military training, and the conscription of armies, with the end in view of abolishing war. It seems that they considered this the end of the argument—the abolition of war by the simple matter of abolishing armies. And then again, the resolution in regard to the dissemination of birth control knowledge read: "Resolved." That the church take active steps to disseminate the knowledge of birth control and that the conference go on record and petition the church to sanction the sterilization of the meninally unfit." The students were guided in this matter only by a blind desire. Certainly they never considered the hazards involved in such a proposition. Albert Wiggam, noted authority on heredity, states that the best thing that ever happened was the restriction of the dissemination of birth control knowledge. The Exanaton conference seemed not to consider that such freedom may bring disaster to society in the same way that the unrestricted use of medicines is a menace to society, but that those same drugs constitute a great need in the science of medicine. But even though the students did not stop to consider the means to their end, they did emphatically establish their rights to free thought and speech; and what is even more important, the trend of the mind of the modern youth has been indicated with charity. 2.

AS OTHERS SEE HIM It is a pity that a man who is in the habit of getting drunk cannot see himself once as others see him while he is in that condition. The visual part of it might be accomplished by means of a motion picture camera and a few feet of tim, and the rallies of speech could be made into a record for the Vietnam, but this method involves time and expense and is not very hard. Besides, it is doubtful whether it would give the actual impression that the drunken man makes. It is true that he can see others in a state of intoxication, but it probably does not occur to him that he appears as silly as they do. How incongruent is the idea of a university student who is supposed to be training his mind for a broader and more useful life, with the practice of celebrating his joys and drowning his misfortunes with intoxicating drinks. In most instances the university学生 is rather a proud fellow. It is a wonder that his pride would allow him to make such a fool of himself. CHEAPER TRANSPORTA TION "Cow Wouldn't Use Oleo," says a recent headline. But the Hill boarding houses don't hostite. It is time for Kansas and the other grain producing states of the Southwest to wake up and take steps to secure cheaper transportation rates than they now have or they will find that the northern states, of Minnesota and the Dakota have usurped their business. The latest development is that the win cities have obtained an extension of the Mississippi river lunge fine to Minneapolis and St. Paul, thus permitting the grain of the north to be shipped at much less cost. The all-tail rate from Minneapolis to the gulf is 34 1-2 cents a bushel. The rate by water will be about 25 cents a bushel, a saving of 1-2 cents. It is up to the western states to push the opening of the Missouri river for navigation so that they can compete with the cheap rate by water which the twin cities have secured. Our Contemporaries Protection Against Fifth The youthful mind is easily susceptible to influences, both wholesome and unwholesome. Reading matter is one of those influences. When reading books about advanced topics placed within reach it often is considered smart, frequently by young people and even by older persons, to boost of the acquaintance with it. But it is dangerous to have young people exposed to a suggestive material that fills a certain class of magazines conspicuously displayed and offered for sale.

There have been similar moves in other states and countries, but it is not a certain nature of the material is so obvious, as it has been in these cases, there is no question of the wisdom or necessity of proceeding against it. There are hazards enough in the path of the average consumer, say. Fidelity and seductive reading matter should not remain one of these.
