CONVOCATIONS A REGULAR COURSE
With the present uncertain system of conventions the students are dilatory about attending. Often the time is used in study at the library or in enjoying a visit and cake at Bricks. Often speakers talk on much the same subjects that have been discussed before. No student exactly likes to hear the Near East or religion discussed every time he goes to conversation, however badly he may be is need of more knowledge of both subjects.
A set system of conventions to take the course of a course of lectures might be profitable. The amount of money required to fill an instructorship might be used. If the $2,000 were used in getting six speakers to appear before conventions with an average attendance of 2000 students, the time would be equivalent to the required amount of time in instruction given to a class of twenty students through a school year. This would enable the University to bring from various fields men who are nationally known speakers and leaders in their lives of endeavor. There would then be less dissatisfaction with conventions, better attendance and more value to the University as a whole.

THAT NICE PARTY
Subdued lights, soothing music,
dancing, evening clothes, and liquor
figured in the nice party carried on
by governmental prohibition agents
last night in two of the leading hotels
in Ranau City. The party was even
more nice than usual on such
excavations. The prohibition agents who
invited their special guests from the
ballroom were dressed in evening
clothes and took part in the bility
of the evening.
Special car service was furnished those exclusive, government guests. Every courtesy was shown the ladies who were so fortunate as to be invited as guests of the government. Thousand dollar bonds were taken as favors from the guests. This was one of the unusual features of the party. Let's hope the government sees fit to have a few more such parties. The country at large would be much better off and a more wholesome respect for the law would result.

OUR TRAFFIC LABORATORY
Yesterday, our national Congress
started in a new field of legislation
when it launched in Washington what
is perhaps the most ambitious attempt
yet made for a large American city
to solve the growing problem of motor
car traffic.
Congress, which legislates for our national capital, has supposedly set
up a model for the country by passing a comprehensive traffic law. A traffic director with practically unlimited powers has been created with orders to give the capital satisfactory traffic control, making such regulations as he finds necessary.
While the experiment is being carried on for the next few months Washington will be somewhat of a laboratory for traffic problems of American cities. Speed on various streets will range from 25 to 35 miles an hour with rigid penalties for faulty brakes and feuty headlights. Most elaborate parking regulations have been adopted. The principle underlying the new system is "speed in with safety."
Although the new system is merely an experiment America's "traffic laboratory" will be watched diligently in its effort to solve our most serious traffic problems.
JUST FOR FUN
Recent international affairs have taken a sudden change which causes not a little uneasiness. Germany with a war lord for president, England with the return to the gold standard and a floating of a new loan of $200,000,000 in New York financial circles, and the United States navy taking a trip over to Australia just for the fun of a visit, make the peoples of other nations sit up with wonder and fear.
Japan rumbles as she reads in her national press that the Washington Conference was a smooth trick to get England out of an entangling adventure and give Japan an empty honor in allowing her to control the Open Door to China.
France is saying little but thinking much. She dares say but little because any motion on her part will get a finger directed at her army which France thinks is essential to her security. Leading French statesmen point to the closer relations between the English speaking races as the building of a huge world stronghold. They point to the Eastern nations with the same charge. These may be more nightmares of a fear-driven nation, but at least they are important enough to watch. America must do some explaining if she expects to hold her present position in international affairs.
A WORTHY PROGRAM
We are afflicted today with all sorts of weeks, campaigns, movements and the like. One of these modern innovations, however, is worth all the backing that it receives and much more. That is the child health program.
National Child Health Day sounds fine except for the last word. When every day is health day the title will sound better. In our more advanced cities the practice of health and hygiene are becoming—as they should—major parts of the school curriculum. Results are shown in lower death rates, better health and increased efficiency.
But here in Kansas child health is not given proper attention. The death rate in Kansas from children's diseases such as encephalus, scarlet fever, and whoping cough is regarded as extremely high, according to Dr. M. O. Nyberg, secretary of the state board of health.
In spite of this unfavorable condition, the last legislature cut down the child health appropriation to $5000. Set this against the millions appropriated for the protection of calves and pigs!
Our legislatures are probably not quite as well as had as painted, but their members and our other folks need to be trained in the production of the best babies, as well as the best wheat in the world.
Campus Opinion
Cooing, just cooing, is the chief recreation of the dove, that gentle, white bird addicted to eating olive oil. Like a chicken in a campus opinion, is also quite a cooer. Like it's nameake it *coos* and cooas. Everything from the students button to his mental crane, the german corme up for radical raxing.
--ism of the University will be closed until further appropriations.
The majority of the articles seem to be built around personal grievances, hence, their logic is one-sided.

VOCATIONAL LECTURE:
According to a student in psychology the apparatus used in an experiment was as follows: Pencil, paper, works, and laboratory instructor.
A professor in the School of Business was using the student "Capital" fund to help students home asked the question, "Has any one ever seen any capital?"
The fourth of a series of addresses on "The Choice of a Life Work" will be given Tuesday night of this week at 8 o'clock, in the auditorium of central Administration building. Dr. John H. Outland, of Kansas City, will present "The Field of Medicine." The field is not interested. JOHN R. DYER, Dean of Men.
In this respect, they are not unlike the editorials of the Rip Saw and of K. K. k publications. Their long-worried and long-winded sentences reading like the copy of the lecture of a soapbox orator.
After 57 students had yawned:
Professor: What is the best thing
follow can hear on the campus?
The whistle, but even
it grows old.
The minority of the articles are clean-cut and logical, taking into consideration that there might possibly another side to the question. However, regardless of their radicalism, most of the students thinking on campus problems. And as such, they should be read.
It is remarkable that there are as many eagle-eved critics on the campus. Forbids, through the dainty, pink pages of The Dove, they may yet save the student body from its follicles. It is sadtingden indeed, that the university designed efforts in the same class as gentlemen cattle.

Overheard: "I must hurry and brush my teeth. Ive a date in fifteen minutes."
A history professor was commenting on the growing use of silk. "Today," he said, "every woman seems to think she has to have a little bit of silk hanging around someplace."
Law: Why is the University turning into a feathery tribe?
Laws: Law! Law! Law! Looks us.
Law: For instance, take the campus publications, first the Jayhawker, then the Sour Owl and now the Dove!

It was announced at the University of Texas Thursday, April 21, that Governor Perguson had vetoed the appropriation bill for the entire school. In addition to refusing any money the governor abolished the entire Summer School. Because of these actions the School of Journalism of the University will be closed until further appropriations.
