They have been pressaged and shouted at; they have been derided as the couns of the earth and praised as the most honest, intelligent development of centuries. Opinions have differed widely. This fact, however, has not kept each and every one of the so-called "older penetration" from having his say. The virtues and vicesides of young people have served as the topic of much conversation for some time now. Some of this has been enlightening; the rest of it merely tiresome and boring. The result has been to make our youth self-confessions. "We must be important," it tells itself, "And different from every one else that the world should talk about us so continually. They say that we are children. They say that we must be. Our older ones are always right—or supposed to be." So youth galons away to carry out its reputation in some measure at least. It smokes a cigarette with a ponchain air and tries not to choke. It drinks a glass of "soak" and tries to believe that it likes it. After a while perhaps it does. But there is a reputation to live up to so what else can it do? Yes, many of the differences of this present generation are purely imaginary. At heart our young people are the same, full of ideas and inspiration—and, to be sure, some wickedness. It is no better, neither is it any worse than the generation before, or the generation before that. The world has changed but not the young people. Franklin as no institution has taken the place of superiors modality. *Stability of life and movement*, a growth of the age, has supervised old time tranquility and pace of the small. All this has not been for the best perhaps, but why lay the change at the door of the present generation? "Planning youth," it not so flaming after all. It watches life with more calmness than many of the elders know, or care. The trouble has been simply over publicity, of over advertisement. And youth has enjoyed the conflict. After all, why shouldn't it? The early bird catches the worm, and the late bird has to pay a five dollar fee—in addition to finding all his courtesies closed. FRATERNITIES AND TAXATION The fraterity house bill has been recommended unfavorably by the Kansas Senate committee on finances and taxation. The bill, which was passed recently by the House, would have repealed the statute which exempts fraternities and aoristries from taxation. The unfavorable report by the Senate committee means the death of the bill in the Senate, and leaves little chance of any similar bill being passed by the present legislature. The exemption of the Greek letter fraternities from taxation has been a minor political issue during the past few years. Two years ago a bill similar to the one recently killed was passed in the House only to be killed in the Senate. But the question was not settled at that time for good, and during the past election some of the candidates for office used a promise to law on a phobia in their platform. morning platform. The backers of the bill which would remove the statute which exempts fraternities from taxation are doubtless working on the assumption that the fraternities are exclusive clubs of the sons and daughters of wealthy parents and therefore should bear their portion of the tax burden. Any student of the University knows that money is not one of the requisites of fraternity membership, and a degree in law or another three students who are self-supporting would doubtless reveal a great enemy who are members of the fraternity. Then too, according to our school authorities, the feinertries provide the best solution of the housing problem in the absence of derivations. Approximately one half of the students are members of a fraternity or sorority which maintains a house, and it is through the fraternal organization that the school authorize the most satisfactory means of regulating the living and social conditions of the students. To tax the feinertries would mean an increase in the living costs of a large percentage of the students, and this surely is not the desire of the people of the state. The Hill's unpacked student in the woman who got married last semester and again had to enroll on the last day in the afternoon. PUTTING SCHOOLS ABOVE POLITICS Every friend of education in Kansas will be made happy by the desire and speedy way the legislature has moved to take the schools of the state out of politics. The agreement of the senate and house committees on education to offer a bill providing for a board of regents to take over the management of the state educational institutions and to serve without pay should insure an early passage of the measure. Political management of universities, colleges and schools generally are demonstraining. Schools cannot attain the highest standards of education. league or experience the necessary security of security under such management. Kansas itself has had an instance of disgrace abuse of political power as applied to schools. The plan proposed by the legislative committee is the right plan. It would ensure the selection of men and women especially interested in education and who would serve because of such interest. It would not be inviting to the self-steeking politicians. It is impossible, probably, to remove other state institutions entirely from the sphere of politics, but it is important that each state's state schools separate from that of the other institutions. That should be done, and that is what is provided for in the bill prepared at Tulsa—Kansas City Star. N OLD LADY'S THOUGHTS The new "banana squash" has the size, appearance, and taste of a banana, and when cooked looks like a sweet potato. It is harvested in the fall and kept until winter, like the squish. This horticultural novelty should find a ready sale among keepers of boarding houses. What does she think when she contrasts the outlook of her grand-daughter with the one she had on life at the same age? When the old lady was young she was hedged about by many restrictions. Her opportunity for education, for self-expression, There is an old, old lady in our block who sits by her window all day long watching the young folks go by. All day long she肌训 and does alternately, for she has nothing else to do. She has led a busy, active world of work and that's what world's work in past. The old lady has much time for reflection. for a place in affairs were limited. An to chances for economic independence, they were extremely slight, and politically she was not recognized at all. She has lived to see great changes. Old restrictions, old traditions, and much of the old prejudice against giving women equal opportunities, with men has been swept away. For her grandmother almost every door is open. She need be restricted by nothing except, perhaps, her own inabilities. Perhaps the old lady wonders a she kits and thinks just how he grandmother's generosity will make use of its new freedom. She will no live to see the outfeat, but your experience once taught her that adde opportunities being added responseilites. The old lady as she near the end of a hose life has confidence in these young women of today despite their apparent frivolity. She know that they do not lack appreciation for the hostage which her own generation has handed on to them. So duh, hiding, thinking, she is happy Men, Buckle Those Galeshe!
