Separate journals, which were published in Europe, under the article of H. May 1857, and with an English translation by William W. Macdonald on a Sunday morning from his students in the University of London, from the Press of the society of Leeds THURSDAY, DECEMBER 10, 1925 WHAT WOULD WE DO? WHAT WOULD Lest your there was an epidemic on the campus. The student hospital was crowded to more than capacity, which doesn't mean that many people had to be ill. Luckily the epidemic was that of mumps, which is not extremely dangerous. During this time the operating room of the hospital was disbanded and used for the care of patients throughout almost the entire year. We wonder if the Kansas City Star will invite E. (Easter) Bunny to Kansas City next. At the beginning of this reminder there were indications that a typhoid epidemic was immining. But again we were lucky. The student hospital would have been hopefully host in the face of a great epidemic. With its meager equipment and tiny space it would have been battling against impossible odds. With 5,600 students gathered to gather from all parts of the country moor or later it is bound to be an epidemic which will have serious results in the loss of lives. It would be far, far better to be prepared to meet this emergency and combat it on at least even terms from its short than to all illly and let it take its toll, and then build a properly equipped hospital. Students are paying to receive a hospital service and to be protected against congenicities of sickness or accident. This protection is being given in an far as is possible to do so with present equipment. Our present hospital might be suitable for a school of 400 enrolment, but as to protecting the student body of the University of Kansas—that is a glaciously joke. Students have grown no accustomed to reading the glaring signs on campus trash-collectors that ten years hence if one of them should hear a loud cry for help he would doublets shout back, "Keep the Campus Clean." IS SCHOOL SPIRIT BUNK? Closely allied with the term "school spirit," as used commonly, is "pop." When one thinks of pop he thinks of athletic contexts, and howling rooters' sections; he feels the thrill of a great game. Yet, is it pop, as commonly understood, really what school spirit should be? If it makes for true loyalty to the school, if it helps nuance a spontaneous love for the Alma Mater and a desire to do the thing that will be best for the institution, then it is. But if it is all, it is not enough by any means. Too many students look upon school mixture precisely as a show, a loud noise; they think of it as something to be displayed at athletic contests only, True, it should be all of this, but it should be more; it should be a deep reverence for the institution and a desire to help it offer a better all-around education, and a gratitude toward those who are making it possible for us. If school spirit means only "peep", it is the bank; and for some people it is that. It means nothing for a man to go through school worthy athletics and forgetting study, to give when a new stadium is needed, but refuse to give or help when more money is needed to get better instructors. It helps, certainly, to make Letter athletic teams, but it does not help to make a better school. help to make a better school. Athletics should be a part of school life. They should be a means toward an end, namely that of clean, healthy living, but they should not be the end in themselves, they should not be our end of worship. If one school spirit means only the pep that we see displayed it will not make better schools. We wonder if a scale manufacturer is ever set in his weights. "BLEST BE THE TIES THEY BUY" Newspaper advertisements, window displays and the dullness of the December sikes problem again that the Christmas shopping season is at hand. Each day newspapers toll off the incurable fact of "only so many more days until Christmas." The shopping public notes with interest and prepare itself for the inwritable last minute rush. Then husband, brother or sweetheart, if unlikely fair chooses a necklace this Christmas as an token of her regard, speak not of it lightly but remember that it was selected by an expert and is very good—maybe. The selection of Christmas gifts has given rise to a number of myths. One of these goes its way each year in the comic stripe and humorous magazines of the country. Consider for a moment the number of jokes that are written about the sufferings of defenseless men because of nickles that women have taught for them. Then consider in the next moment the testimony of men's clothing deals that "the women of today know more about harmonizing colors and the selection of reckless than more man could ever hope to." The reason for this merchants say is the fact that women dress while men only clothe themselves. Then too a man buys a tie because he likes it and it seems very desirable at the moment. A woman picks a tie that blends with an outfit and is more suited to the wearer. Now that health week is over; if there are any women on the Hill who are not healthy, something must be wrong with them. --doesn't need to be a new one for Christmas. Send us that soiled one and we will make it like new. The editorial "The Student Poll" in Wednesday's Kaman was an acknowledgment that the poll on the World Court question was so arranged that the result would be for entrance of the United States into the court. It was a case of infanticill manipulation, covered by dignitaries. Campus Opinion Editor, Daily Kansas: The committee claim that opposition was impossible to obtain. That is an aburduity. It was not necessary to have an active opponent of the court to merely interpret the facts. What about professors on the HIIT? Would an opponent of the court could easily enumerate the main points of the opposition. The speaker, Mr. Foudick, did not give the specific issue. True, the Kansas tried to educate the students through its columns, but only a few studied what was printed. Mr. Foudick felt that "lessons" emotions, not their reasoning. The point is: The committee probably did not care to get a speaker for the negative side that would hinder their plans for the poll. The student drive for a new stadium and union building at the University of Oklahoma is at its height. The goal is $100,000 and a great corps of solideres is at work endeavoring to raise that amount by the first of the week. The proposed stadium would send 50,000 people. The result of the poll was the voice of the emotions, not of reasoning. Could this be an accurate barometer of student opinion? Yes, as accurate as could be under the circumstances. —C. E. M.

Plain Tales From the Hill The Physics professor had been telling of a machine which had been crested near Pasadena, California which would utilize the heat radiated from the sun. The heat brought water to a boil and the steam was used to warm the ice. It was then tasted "What do they use to run it with after night, moonside?" Plain Tales From the Hill Teacher reading from theme, "He entered school with fifty cents, ambition, energy, and that indefinable something." "Oh! you ought to see me, I took "oh!" he murmured with a confounding smile. He then went on to explain that he had fallen in a raid. Low voice:"Halitosis!" A geology professor was explaining that ice melted under pressure. "Miss ___," he said, "What happens when you skate on ice?" Voice in ranks during R. O. T. C. drill: "What the devil is that noise? Sounds like a cowbell." Silence ensued. Then a series of giggles rippled across the room. Another voice: "Aw that's nethin' but the sergent's sharpshooolin' medals jinglin." "Hey- wake up! Hear that whistle. You've got an 8:20, haven't you?" "Um hub!" "Got a 9:24?" "Um hub!"
