The Daily Kannan area to picture the undergraduate program in theatre will go further than mere writing, the news by standing for the ideals of theatre; to be clean, to be cheerful; to be brave, to be strong; to have more serious problems to wield hooks; to all serve to the ability to write well.

LIFT THE CHORUS
Tomorrow night, the Lawrenz Choral Union will give its first public performance. For a year, the great organization and its lender have labored together in campaigns for membership, tryout after tryout, and hundreds of hours of evening practice. Difficulties have been constantly not; discouraging setbacks have frequently occurred; but now the chorus is a reality, a solid union of four hundred trained musicians and earnest workers.
For half a century, Lawrence has been known as an educational center. Now it will establish its name as a lover of music, and some day will acquire the enviable reputation that Lindsburg now enjoys.
Lawrence and the University are inseparable, and what one gains is accredited to both. Faculty and students have a big part in the Lawrence Choral Union—many are members and the others support it. Robinson gym should be packed toonerright when the Messiah is sung.
The only way to get some people' goat is to catch him by the board.
SPEAKING OF DUMB ANIMALS
The Weekly Manchester Guardian is fearful should sporting circles institute a "cowboy contest" (Bodee is not in their vocabulary) in England, and they believe the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Dumb Animals will intervene to stop it. They believe that "punching" cows, "bulldogging" and "ferroring of riding cowies is second only to bull fighting in Mexico, endangering the man and bringing forth "frenzied cries from the poor beats."
"Ow bloomin' unfawtawful! Of course America is still wild and save age. Rodoes are not events for seriative women to witness.
But what does the S. P. C. D. A. think of the English sportsman, who with a mustache reclining on his upper lip, and a cigarette hanging from the lower, menace in his eye, and a flask on his hip, climbs on his steel, or do they call hoses, "Mounts" in England, and like the Prince of Wales, ride into this "campaign."
He urges his "mount" over hedges, walls, and water courses. But the "charger" likes it. He never falls and spills his rider, although the rider quite often spills the horse. Perhaps they need a noeider or two to teach them to ride and take care of horses over there in England.
"Graduate Returns Head"—home line. At last, at last one has been found who did not hike to Kansas City.
There is but one method for the Eastern Hemisphere to attack the United States, and that is by sea. A strong navy is our chief method of defense. According to Admiral Countz our navy is hopeless and out of date. Recent experiments showed that the Canal Zone is not capable of defending itself. It appears as if the United States is forced to take some measures to secure adequate protection.
THE NAVY
Our naval history is rich in tradition and bravery. The story of heroic exploits dates to the time of Captain Kidd. The new republic astounded the world with the feats of John Paul Jones and the War of 1812 was won by sea power alone.
Admiral Farramau sailed the deep with a fleet that vied with the Confederacy for the greatest honors. The lesson taught by the Merrimae and the Monitor scrapped the navies of the world. This is the background upon which our navy rests.
A few thousand miles of ocean will not protect us. The world is in a state of unrest that makes armament necessary, if we are to survive. The whole question of the navy can only be settled in one way. The United States must make her navy one of the strongest in the world in spite of pacifists, dreamers and Utopians. Our constitutional liberty must be protected, and our homes must be secure.
The gink that poured acid on his Airelale's back probably laughed upoonously when the horse bearing his grandmother went by.
There is a possibility of war in Ireland again. That's nothing; there is a possibility of revolution in Mexico.
CHILD HEALTH DAY
Thursday, May 1, has been declared Child Health Day throughout the United States. This country has a reputation over the world for not paying attention to the health of her children. The proclaiming of today as Child Health day was a step in advance and proves that the citizens of the United States are awakening to the importance of the child's health.
The day is being celebrated all over the United States with May fetes featuring the health aspect. Clinics, special meetings, and radio talks on the various phases of child health will form a part of the program. This holiday will impress on the mind of the children the importance of health and should make the child take better care of itself.
If today has the effects on the people that it should it will be a good thing. If it is a success this year, as it undoubtedly will be, it should be made an annual affair, and a day set aside each year for Child Health Day.
According to Admiral Coontz to navy needs scrapping, not a scrap.
The blackbirds are with us again. This will receive the old story about the man who aimed low when he shot at a flock of them and three bushels of legs were picked up the next morning.
Next to the man who writes the inscriptions on tombstones, the biggest liar is the fellow who says that he can eat grape-fruit with his eyes open.
A MAY-DAY POME
"O, dewy was the morning
Upon the first of May;
And Dewey was the admiral
Down in Manila Bay;
And dewy were the Regent's eyes—
The eyes of royal blue.
And do we feel discouraged?
"do not think we do."
