U. 64 TUESDAY, SEPT. 15, 1925 THE GLAD HAND Where is there a pleasant feeling than that one of satisfaction which engulfs the old student when he arrives in Lawrence after the vacation? As he passes down the street he notes the many changes that have been made during the summer, new store fronts galore, bright new coats of paint on almost every paintable, new equipment in the various business establishments and on top of it all the borders of Massachusetts dotted with flags of alma mater water. There's a feeling of satisfaction and content in knowing that Lawrence is proud of the University and its students, and more than glad to extend the glad hand at the beginning of each new year. "Woes of a Salesman Break up Home" says a headline. Usually it is the joys. As soon as the hurry and rush of the opening semester is ended, it will be in order for the Hill pranksters to move the parking signs. GREATEST SHOW ON EARTH Several American cities this fall will stage versions of the Greatest Show on Earth (American-made, like Barnum's). That is to say they will hold municipal elections. The headquarters of the biggest circus are in New York City. Ringmasters for this affair are the present Mayor Hylan and Editor Hearst in one ring and the popular Governor Al Smith and Tammany in the second circle. The Republicans in the third ring are having a little laughing show of their own at the expense of their fellow performers, the Democrats. Meanwhile the audience, the voting public, sits back, amusedly and tolerantly watching the fact-fuggling and mud-sliding antics of the politicians. American voters are the delight of these circus politicians. They are gullible, swallowing without protest freaks of political reasoning: They are too indolent to protest violently when the act is bum. And they invariably pay the big prices demanded. The American youth is early trained to appreciate these great circuses of public life. During his four years in college he witnesses once or twice yearly a very commendable performance of the show, done with high talent. All of which reminds us that K. U is about ready for its first annual installment of the circus. We here at the University have a right to be proud of our own circus. It puts on in the regulation manner the big promise act, the hot air act, the "vote e' straight" scene and all of the other favorites. We as audience also uphold the tradition. We let the politicians do our thinking, select the candidates and manufacture the issues. We listen to their jargon, vote blindly and then forget all about politics until next election. We pay the price in the form of a sleep student government without complaint. "Those who made mitakes in the place of their residence and wish to register as non-residents . . .," says George O. Foster. There seems to be at least one man who has a sublime faith in the power of suggestion.

DEFENSE? AGNES HUSBAND, Director. New Rear Admiral Moffett makes the astounding announcement that the most charitable way to regard the charges made by air critics is that their author "is of uncount mind and is suffering from delusions of grandeur," that "any system loyalty administered will succeed," and with a few other harmless statements mentioning no one in particular, disbelieving nothing in particular, and denying nothing in particular, he makes what is supposed to be a defense of the air service. Ruar Admiral Moffett may be a loyal servant of the people. He may have a sincere faith in the integrity of the present air service, but his defense hardly bekes courage or the honest facing of a problem. The question of the air service is too vitally connected with the future economic development of the United States to be dismissed lightly by a flow of high-sounding and indefinite phrases. When Moffett accuses a crite of being of "unassouled mind," he merely evades a vital issue. The air battle is more than a one-man affair. It requires logical thinking, thorough investigation, and courage. Raving will never improve conditions. Another court of inquiry is to investigate the cause of the Shenandoah disaster. Evidently the first court was unable to exonerate everyone from blame. THE MESS Rain-beamedear posters sticking out beneath various red and blue cards tacked at all angles—that is the K, U, bulletin board—the official announcement of dramas, church picnics, and faculty lectures. In many universities the bulletin board is a center of interest. Announcements are arranged neatly. Every day they are changed and they are never allowed to grow stale. K. IU, has a good place for a real bulletin board. Certainly this University has plenty of activities to present to students. The only thing lacking is a board of adequate size, and a little care in arranging it. Mt. Oread is already well supplied with greater and lesser officials of various titles and degrees of importance, but there is plenty of room for a "keeper of the bulletin board," whose duties might include inspection of proposed announcements and their next arrangement. At present, the bulletin board is a mess. Yea Old Time VARSITY A LAST LINK Saturday Nite September 19 Few links remain any more between the new civilization and the old. Tradition has lost its personality and has become indelibly connected with the pages of history. Eisenhart-Jenks AND "Chuck" Shofstall ECKES Dr. Joseph Singer Halstead, who was dying at his home in Missouri yesterday, was a last link between the days when this nation was a struggling young thing and these present days of power. He saw the development of the United States from the days of Madison's presidency, through the period of secession and the Civil War, through the age of industrial development and the rising importance of mechanism, through the days of reconstruction, on into the Spanish-American war and the great drama of the World War. He has watched the post-war unrest, and the ever-increasing fusing together of the nations of this world. FAU A man of science himself, he has lived through a fabulous development of science from the time when he was Henry Clay's family physician to the year 1925, when medical men are getting nearer and nearer the perfection of curses once thought impossible. Wouldn't it be more appropriate to call these air attempts non-finish flights instead of non-stop flights? The life procession which he witnessed has been dramatic, even glorious. But the procession is not over. Who knows what the next life cycle may produce? Among the peculiarities of first week school are the freshman who are invariably on time to classes. Just as the Bolshevik regime assumes some semblance of stability, it seems opportun for a royalist uprising. Where are all the little campus humorists? School Johns be going on for several days and the eleven little campus landscape growers have not played the usual snails. How come "The Phonies" does not repurpose upon the front porch of Green ball, and "Uncle Jimmy Green" does not grace the lawn of Marvin hall? And with the new pacing, just think of all the room for misty "seven," "black daggers" and other mysterious sippins. WITS' WIT With the prevalence of inoculations, the jolly old habit of affectionately slapping one's best friend's arm has been relegated to the list of things which "aren't done." Surely the Hill humorists will get busy soon! Phone Service Fritz Co. [1] A. Seymour, D. R. Staley, and T. A. Schmidt, *Theory of Electrical Circuits*, 3rd ed., McGraw-Hill, New York, 1972.
