Weekly visit and on Sunday morning by students it was the day before the official vanity of Kansas, from the Press of the State Department. Editorial Department... K. U. 20 Business Department... K. U. 6 MONDAY, SEPT. 14, 1925 The hurry hurry of over week an Hill preliminaries is over. Another week and the student body will be settled in the conventional routine o existence at the University. Pep rallies, night-shirt parades, athletic contests and what not will soon be in order. Announcements of special convocations, departmental gatherings, meetings of Hill organizations and others too numerous to mention are in evidence daily. How can the busy student, especially the freshman who is rushing this way and that in his efforts to acclimate himself, keep abreast of this torrential flow of events that are of such great import to him? Can he afford to spend precious minutes while on his way to class gazing at a poster bestrewn billboard that has the appearance of a most intricate puzzle? Or would it be more advisable to be able to sit down after the evening meal and spend a few minutes perusing the University Daily Kaman. The Kaman contains nearly all the news pertaining to Hill activities, and in addition, a timely resume of the news of the world. A student can hardly afford to be without access to the Kansan. It is a most important tool in the machinery of Life on Mount Oread. NOSE-DIVES Spectacular nose-dives, army and navy planes competing with one another for the most publicity, numerous expeditions organized to prove to the rest of the world that Americans are past masters of the show business—all these things spell aeronautics in the United States. Austria has led the world in many fields. The United States is a great and a proud country, but long ago, she had to learn—bitterly learn—that a "house divided against itself cannot stand." Now what is she doing? She is making of a new force in civilization a plaything for two competing departments to toss about as their wives direct while other countries are steadily making of this new force a unified institution. She is sacrificing national service for petty rivalry. But in countries on the continent—an unified air service, in some cases a government subsidy, transportation which is working efficiently, service for the country instead of for glorious competition. It is not a noble sacrifice; it is something little and petty—something far below the fine idealism about which Americans have talked. It is even in defiance of the economic rules the thorough mastery of which the United States has claimed. No one questions that there is a 'uture in aircraft. In other countries that future looks bright. In America, it has been dimmed by division and rivalry which can never mean advancement to the air service itself. BOXING The boxers are blue. Three members of the team have been recommended by the conch for the coveted "K" sweater, but the sweaters have not been granted. The boxers are asking "Why?" The football team receive their letters; so with baseball, basketball, track, wrestling, tennis and even golf. All of these teams have rep resented the University in intercollegiate competition, and letters are given. The boxing team has represented the University in intercollegiate competition, and demonstrated its worth; and judging from the interest shown, the Hill wins boxing. But letters are not awarded for boxing. It receives the letter at Manhattan, and at Ames, where it is more popular even than basketball, it has attained the rating of a major sport. Don't it time for the athletic board to recognize it at K. U.? EDUCATION OR PARENTS? With the recent preponderance of juvenile crime, the time has come for certain opponents of education to couple accusingly the names of crime and school. They are basty opponents, who fail to feel out fundamentals. Al principies of education tell us that a child is largely molded before he has been many years in school. His underlying ideals and principles are formed while he is under the influence of his home. Somewhere in Ohio there is a police man who is the father of the young student who murdered an instructor in Missouri. Somewhere in the east live a man and woman who are the mother and father of the Harvard man who killed a 14-year old girl. Back of every criminal there is a home and a mother and father who gave to him his first and fundamental ideals. It is all very well to point out the noble man and woman who started this mail that public hero on his road to success. It is a different matter to point an accusing finger at those parents who have failed to accept their responsibilities. The family is necessarily the starting point of civilization, both good and bad. Why blame education for the mistakes of parents? HABITS Some get high-sounding degrees. Some earn Phi Beta Kappa degree. Some find social prestige. Some have a lot of fun. Some come away with valuable professional training. Some win athletic honors. But all of us get from our sojourn at the University 'a big bundle of habits. Many educators think that these habits are the most important part of an education, in fact, that they constitute the education. Of course with most of us these habitual attitudes and ways of acting come on us like, say the measures. We just "catch" them, knowing neither whence nor whether. But as intelligent people can exert some control over disease by proper preparatory measures, so a student can have something to say about the kind of habits he will or will not form. He can consciously set out to build up a set of good habits and to avoid wasteful ones. He can remember when he is digging into a chemistry or history lesson that he is doing more than learning facts. He is forming a habit of thinking. He can make his habitual method of thinking clear, analytical and unimproved. He can realize when he is debating with himself whether or not to attend the concert course that the question is more than a two-hour entertainment. It is the question of forming the habit of appreciating and enjoying good music, a permanent possession. ARE STUDENTS CULTURED? Are university students cultured? It seems like a paradox to ask if members of an institution of higher learning whose mottoes and inscriptions are enboldened with words like "beauty" and "truth" have any keener appreciation for the values of life than the man on the street. He may save a lot of trouble and win a lot of joy by giving a little thought to the habits he is forming. Each year the university concert course lays before the students samples of the best musical art. The Robinson gymnasium will seat nearly 1000 persons. The price for the whole series of seven or eight concerts is five and six dollars. The results? About three-fourths of the seats are occupied.

The year's program gives many opportunities for contact with the art in the realm of art. There are traveling exhibits of paintings and other works of art. There is the permanent Thayer collection of modern paintings. There are art lectures open to the public. There are faculty recitals. There are service services four times yearly. There is a big music week in the spring. seats are practically all of the students of the School of Fine Arts. This is a requirement in the school. Many townpeople are there. Faculty members and their families are noticeably present. And a few students from the college and other schools attend.
