The Daily Kaman aims to picture the undergraduate life of a man rather than merely print the news by standing for the ideals of the college. For example, students are to be clean; to be cheerful; to be careful; to have more serious problems to worse habits; and to be students of the University.

English stage promoters must think that America has a shortage of good looking girls. They make their actresses give bond not to marry while acting in America.
MEMORIAL DAY—AND MEMORIES
Friday is a holiday—an extra day to cram for finals—a blessed briot in the travail of these last weeks of information-acquiring.
But Friday is more than that, although few students pause to think of the real meaning of the holiday. It is Decoration day, set apart for solen tribute to the nation's soldier dead.
Traditions change with passing, years, even as the poignancy of grief, fades, and the thoughts of the nation turn to present problems rather than past sorrows. Memorial day is a holiday now, devoted to baseball games, pliances, and, at the University, to hopeful efforts to accomplish a semester's work in two weeks. But shall we forget?
Fall is Under Fire Again —headline. He will be lucky if he doesn't fall this time.
TONGUES GOSSIP
The Prince of Wales walked at the head of a procession with an Italian princess and sat with her at lunch. Now English tongues have it that a match will be brought about between the two.
Inumerable times the princess name has been linked with a feminine one and gossipers have looked forward eagerly to a royal wedding. Inumerable times they have been disappointed for the British heir to the throne seems satisfied to remain unmarried
The Italian maid, Princess Mafalila, smiled at the Britsiter at lunch. The prince smiled at her. They really seemed to enjoy their chat together. They are both young and consequently might have had a few interests in common. But the English subjects will not allow the chant and the stroll of the royal pair to have been only a passing incident. They long to have it furnish an intraumalliance through a wedding. They simply can't let the prince look pleased and comfortable when with a woman without parrying him to her on the shot.
Yes, that gossiping English nobility reminds us of the neighborhood speculation over the back fence at home. The only difference is one goes on at the back fence and the other finds its way to the newspaper.
Education gives a man a polish! Then education is nothing for now a gentleman of polish can be found in any shine parlor.
And now comes the man who thinks a man is rich in proportion to the number of foulish things he can afford to leave alone.
Girls have been placed at an information bureau at Kansas City to answer questions. Possibly will work all right if they give the people desiring information a chance to question them.
Car Quota is Short—headline That is easily settled, have Ford ada a few extra workmen.
While the University is erecting magnificent Administration buildings, beautiful libraries, and useful Unions she might pause a moment and look to the need for a new and adequate hospital to care for the increasing number of students who enroll in her balls.
Dr. E. Smith, the University physician, said last week that a new hospital is needed. Anyone who has spent a few days there will admit the fact also. The hospital force does its utmost, under the circumstances, to care for the medical treatment of those desiring it.
Almost nine thousand calls were mailed to the hospital this year. No other two-story house in Kansas has issued such an army, for a similar purpose.
In addition many students have sought outside medical treatment, believing that they could not get the best satisfaction from the University hospital. It is unfair for them to pay the University fee of $6 and be forced to pay outside bills also.
An institution that draws 5,000 of the so called "best" of Kansas should at least have a hospital equal to those of towns having 5,000 in population, and a force of physicians and nurses in equal proportion.
Congress has overlooked a fruitful field for investigation—the matter of the Ivory Dome.
Junior Klan Being Organized With Boys, as members—headline. Now even the baby will be missing sheets from the trundle bed.
How to Reduce Your Tax—headline.
If anyone can tell people how to do that he will soon be a millionaire

The student forum of Ohio State advocates the entry of the United States into the League of Nations. A vote taken shows nine were in favor of American participation in the league while six were opposed. A vote on the World Court produced the same verdict as the League's perfect, still it is a step in the right direction, was some members of the forum opinion of the league.
Inter-collegiate sports should be done away with was the conclusion reached at the recent National Athletic Conference held in Kapans City last week. It is thought that the pervasive mental strain of inter-collegiate tournaments is too much for women. Intercollegiate athletics was considered better to give training in sportmanship to as many women as possible in local territories.
The student branch of the American Association of Engineers at the University of Illinois, has voted to surrender its charter after the faculty of the College of Engineering and the engineering council recommended that such action be taken. Inactivity and lack of interest were the reasons for
