Paragraph:
The sky was a deep blue, almost white, with scattered clouds. There were a few wispy clouds stretching across the horizon, giving the scene a sense of vastness. The sunlight filtering through the clouds illuminated the landscape, casting a warm glow on everything below. It was a perfect day for outdoor activities, as the sun seemed to be shining brightly over the park. People were walking along the paths, enjoying the tranquility of the surroundings.

STUDENTS AND PUBLIC AFFAIRS
"Can anyone tell of a single instance within the last year of student opinion in his school affecting public affairs?"
Not a single instance was cited by a delegate.
This illustration of the negligible weight of student opinion on public questions in this country would be startling if it wasn't now so commonplace. Foreign visitors to this country always express surprise over the contrast between the place of the student in their own countries and in America. In Europe and the Orient the student class is an influential class, to be reckoned with by prime ministers and secretaries.
Recently in China the movement for independence from foreign control was led by students.
The explanation of the powerlessness of the American student body in the councils of the nation involves many factors, historic and social. One reason for this condition is perhaps outstanding. It is simply that there is no united student opinion in America on domestic or foreign problems.
An observer of the habits of the American undergraduate in his fraternity or rooming house is struck with his apathy towards public affairs. Few students even make a pretense of keeping up with current events. Few students spend over ten minutes a day on the newspapers. Few students talk about Washington, or Paris or the Locarno peace treaty at the dinner table.
What has become of the old-fashioned student who used to leave school just after mid-se semester "on account of his eyes?"
AIMLESS LIVING
Long age there lived a man, according to a story, who divided his goods among his servants to trade with while he was away. To one he gave a large portion, to another a smaller, and to the third man he gave the smallest portion. The last man did not make the most of his opportunity.
On this campus there are students who have had the opportunity to make the most of all the possibilities this University has to offer. They have laughed and joked, studied and played, even some have graduated whose lives are as aimless today as they were before the high school age. They have picked no objective, or aim toward which to strive.
Students should not miss the great opportunity to decide on a definite aim, to work toward that aim, and by so doing become better students, more dynamic individuals.
We cannot flippantly waste away these moments, we can not stand idly enjoying the show, we cannot admit later that we have used this time to
no advantage for ourselves. We have a stewardship for which we are responsible therefore we cannot waste our own and other people's time by aimless living.
Since elections are over, the successful candidates may now finish their heavy work–having their photographs made for the Jayhawker.
Two students made the Nebraska trip for 35 cents, and pro-ranked the expense. We wonder which one got the odd hamburger.
STEP BACK FOR A CLEAR VIEW
In the midst of a room of noise and confusion a student is bending over his typewriter, evidently trying, in the face of great obstacles, to concentrate. The title of the paper he is composing is, "Obstacles to Rational Thinking Among University Students."
could that student have had a picture of himself he would have had the best answer possible to the paper he was attempting to write.
Analyze the situation. In the first place the student does not take time to think. Why was he trying to compose a paper, any kind of a paper let alone one on rational thinking, in the midst of such confusion that concentration for the average person would be totally impossible? Because the paper was due and was to complete it in the time he had left, regardless of the conditions. Obstacle number one—procrastination.
But why did he procrastinate? Because, like so many other students he did not know what to think about. He had a warmed view of the relative importance of things as they are. He was looking at his life from one side only, and that side was the near side of his four years of college life. Side views are always warped views. The social activities, and the personal contacts of a student's life in college easily take on a size disproportionate to their actual value. Obstacle number two—a warped opinion.
But why has he this warped opinion? Because he has not learned that he ought to think. He is unaware of what he is trying to do and therefore cannot possibly think rationally how to do it. He has not taken time to reason out for himself why he is where he happened to be, what he must get out of it, and how to get it. This is the root and basis of the other two obstacles. He does not know where he is trying to go, and has a warped view of the relative importance of the conditions and problems he meets on his sinless wandering way. He therefore exerts his energy on non-essentials.
The janitor is a welcome guest at most house-warmings.
Lawrence theaters are showing the Kansas-Nebraska football game with their other shows this week. No one has any regard for our feelings any more, it seems.
On a dark night as the student goes home from the library, it is difficult for him to determine whether to drop his letter in the mail box, the Sour Owl box, or the trash can.
Campus Opinion
The interest being shown on the University of Kansas campus in regard to international peace movements is far below what it should be. Why should not the parents of the future generation of this wonderful states of care show more interest in these great peace movements?
Editor Daily Kansan:
Two meetings were held last week on the campus. The attendance of one was 60, of the other was nearly equal to that of the student body. I do not believe that assignments are appropriate in a workplace, but rather lack of interest.
Let's start now. Let's give the same attention to this movement as the students in other colleges of the United States are giving.
