The leasing tower of Pisa will leann 1600 years more before it fails. It is an unpleasant thing for even a tower to think of having 1600 years.
POLITICAL HOKUM
Bunch, bank, and then some more. Each new version brought cut is just a little better than those that preceded it, but still they continue to be nothing more than bunk.
And the bank referred to in the activity of the two political organizations on the Hill-Black Mask and Puschacampa. The elections for a number of years had largely centered around these two parties much as the state and national elections center around two major parties.
Year after year there have been numerous elections which might have been centered around some issue. But never yet has any election, so far as investigation could discover, decided a definite issue. "Is the candidate that Count" and "are the well known candidates" are the well known logos on which many a candidate has ridden into office in the "popularity centers". Not until the parties come out with a platform which in candidates are pledged to support, if elected, will our campus politics be justifiable. And that platform must in reality stand for something vital, and not plebei the candidate to do some thing which is already expected of him.
In the coming election the two factions might well take a definite stand on such questions as student control of the disciplinary powers, the point system for men, senior education from finals, salaries for the managers of student enterprises, a cooperative book store for the students, a blanket tax for the various student activities, and many of the other important questions which constantly face our student government. Such questions should be decided by the student body by means of an election.

WASTED HOURS
"Everybody out!"
"Everybody out!"
The student starts from his fever
iash note-taking. Ten o'clock already
His assignment only half finished
and due tomorrow. For the next
hours the book he must give up
will be locked inside the library, on the
reserve shelves.
The increasing number of books put on reserve, and the large classes using a single volume, make it almost impossible for everyone to get assignments finished before they are due.
Professors tire of the alibi about being unable to get the hook, and the student's grade is reduced. Yet probably the student's day has been full of classes, laboratory work, or outside work.
Another hour, or even half an hour,
more of library service in the evening
would give several more students a
chance at the coveted reference.
It would give those with a full day
schedule an even chance with those
who have plenty of time to spend in
the library.
Incidentally, it might prevent considerable cutting of classes to get up library assignments.
Now that it appears that experienced feel of official indifference and unconcerns, are going to, continue to own the campus and have their own waja, it might be well for pedestrians to consider a few ways in which they may obtain for themselves some of their restraints denied them.
SAFETY FIRST
As a result of extended studies by the American Automobile Association, in Washington, D. C., it has been shown that one side of the street is safer for pedestrians than the other. The majority of accidents occur at the point where automobiles make the right hand turn and come from behind pedestrians. To avoid this point pedestrians should use the sidewalk, which will cause them to face the approach traffic. Statistics show that a large number of fatalities occur every year among pedestrians and facing the traffic stream.
It has also been found that there is a safer way of crossing to a diagonal corner. Whenever this is done the important thing is to keep the line of vision as clear as possible. By following these simple rules perk-trims will greatly help their chances of getting by without injury where motor traffic is very dense or where there is no enforcement of traffic regulations.
All pedestrians on Mount Orcad should follow these and any other safety rules they may know for more reasons than one. Primarily, of course, they should do so in self-protection. Secondly, because it seems they have been relegated to the "those who don't count" group by official indifference. Finally, because it is always desirable to co-operate and if the speakers are to be encouraged to speed morily on, the pedestrian should at least show enough respect for those higher up to keep out of the way and not annoy the law breakers.
THE SAFE SABBATH
The Sabbath day in Lawrence?
What little peaceful praise! Nothing disfigures the special calm, not even real exercise on the tennis court, or a few moments of reading current magazines in the library. Such activities would be decoration of the religious atmosphere which is supposed to prevail from midnight Saturday until midnight Sunday.
Instead, let everyone be assured that the Sabbath is made safe for students in Lawerence; that it, if absence of constructive activity can be called safe. Sleeping in church or out, followed by the Sunday discursive care of the day until 2 o'clock. Then, after entertaining the visiting faculty members, or mums and uncles who have driven to Lawrence for the afternoon, bridge addicts retire to some "shark!" room, and practice the national indoor sport.
Other students, who would play tennis on week days, borrow the counts' buckets, and with their dates take to the open road, and spend a worthful Sabbath evening around a campfire near the cemetery. Still others, of a more nautical turn of mind, paddle in the river and spend a "safe" Sunday evening neath the trees on the banks of God's river, the Law. And those dates, whose finances permit buying steak in the finished form and put as the butcher knows it, eat Sunday dinner at a restaurant with the Salvation army playing appropriate times on the walk without. They finish the evening by sitting on the porch.
Peace—eternal peace! And no shadow of wholesome exercise on the tennis courts or reading in the library where books blot on the calm safety of the day.

Juliet Dowdy, pianist and pupil of Prof. C. A. Preeyer, appeared in her graduate recital Monday night. The four groups which composed the programs were primarily designed to display their music in technique. Mimi Dowdy excels.
A Chromatic Fantasia and Fugue from Bach, vigorous and energetic, opened the recital. The crescendo and diminuent in this number were particularly well handled. Striking irregularities of rhythm and numerotrette phrases demanded a free, forceful treatment.
At the Concert
"Scherzo in B Minor," by Chopin, was outstanding both in its technique and in interpretation. Its poignant,

Book Notes
Saint-Saveri "Concerto" in G Minor, with Professor Preper at the second piano, was easily the most interesting number on the program. Technical skill, variety of speed, exe- tuality and mastery of interpretation gave the selection a finish which was truly masterful. Miss Dowley was assisted by Elva McMullen, soprano, with Mildeed Whitened at the piano. In clarity, musicality and spontaneity Ms. McMullen was test in "Life," aInvocational song by Curran.

This book and better be left above the pryllish or the overmodest because it will shock them, and perhaps corrupt them. It should not occasion much surprise if "Siraus and Prayer Books" finds its way into the secret chamber, where the works of Boccato, Harry Kearn, Rabbels and other dangerous writers are reexposed. Cibell has always been categorical by the category as Stoneken, Nathan, Emile Zola and Theodore Dreiser.
Straws and Prayer-Books James Branch Cabell
Lect the unwary belief that this book is a religious treatise, it might be stated here with emphasis that it is not. Cabell has no use for Bryan, who he suspects, a secret grudge against evolution and also against the fear of free kindness for Riley Sunday, "an liberator clergyman of the day, who preaches a species of Christianity." Cabell is an noun laecust, if ever there lived one. He chaffes against the restrictions of society upon natural impulse. He points out, for example that people have everywhere admired a cunning, strong, unconformist character from the very first inclination to glorify the breaker of laws current in the artist's lifetime.
The writer admits rather proudly that his books have been branded as "indecent and salacious." But he says that time and not people is the best censor. If a book can withstand the test of age it is a good book, regardless of the opinion of too concerned at the time of its appearance.
He adds that one feature common to all great, mystic figures over whose deathlessness he had praised was the cost, and that each was a rebel "who had gained fameceous by warring against heaven." He thus concludes himself. He utterts some truth. He knew worth part of the student's time.

Every national superior has a chapter at the University of Minnesota.
A new pastime has come to replace bridge, the cross-word puzzle, and dencing at the Kanas State Agricultural College. "Circus" will amuse children in all ages with a feature, "Circus" is not a show or a "it's pretend" amusement but a card game. In playing the game one uses 52 orange and black cards on which are picture of animals or parts of animals; a date of events for each animal; and then make a complete and matched square, is the object of the game.
