"Jelly-fish" now a term of com-
pliment, says a headline in the Liter-
ary Digest. Wonder what the "cake
eater" will mean in the dim, dark future.
REQUESCAT IN PACE Another election has come and done.
REQUIESCAT IN PACF
Cards, tags, and party sheets are being trampled into the mud headlessly by students who, a short time ago, were ardently discussing the merits of candidates, platforms, and campaign tactics.
The candidates themselves are wearily trying to get back in touch with their classes and other activities which they have been neglecting for the peremptory demands of politics.
Weary political leaders are already discussing plans for the next election and devising even more strenuous campaigns.
But politics just now seems a little stale, even to the most politically minded. For the students, the candidates, and the politicians are tired. Perhaps the faculty is a bit tired. We know the janitors are tired Everybody is tired.
FLOWERS TO HIDE SCARS
No, Clarice, the joint concert of the glee clubs has nothing to do with the old days of blind tigers.
FLOWERS TO HIDE SCARE Thousands of children are to plant flower seeds over the bare scars left by the earthquake in Japan, in order to beautify their country and take away many of those things which remind the Japanese people of their great disaster, and thus help to heal the scars left on the hearts of the people.
Disasters no matter how terrible at the time often serve to bring people who go through them together closer in sympathy and understanding of each other. And by planting these flowers the older people of Japan hope to touch their children the "spirit of co-operation and mutual aid irrespective of their religion," such as they themselves have learned through tragedy.
SPELLIN' BEES
How different are the trash heaps and scars of America in most places, when weeds instead of flowers hide their bideous contents from the view of the public.
Burglar's stole half a raisin pie at Fulton, Mo. Have you had your iron tonight?
Spelling correctly seems to be becoming a lost art with many people. It is stressed very little in grade school, less in high school, and the time students come to college they hear very little about it except for an occasional red mark under a misspelled word in some courses.
Atchison has instituted the ob-
spelling bee in the high school, not
only for the children but for both old
and young.
It sounds very old fashioned and out of date, but yet there is a certain fascination for old things, and this is one custom, which while being of value to all who take part might afford a great deal of fun. People are tired of picture shows and the usual forms of amusement, why not try something a little different for entertainment? It might do some University students good to have their bad spelling aired before the public a bit.
PROCRASTINATION
Always every day some magazine or newspaper comes out with a sweep-indictment against the college student, scoring him severely for something or other; in fact, it's getting to be quite the thing. But why not give the long-suffering student a rest and see if there may not possibly be minor faults traceable to his instructor—some faults which, in a measure, account for the student's supposed lack of serious interest in his work?
For instance, there are the professors who habitually hold their classes long after the whistle is blown. These professors usually observe the same method of class procedure; they spend the greater part of the class period in attempted indoctrination, dwelling at great length upon some of their own "pet" ideas.
After forty minutes or so of suic an introduction, they finally lauren einhistorically into the important phases of the lesson just as the whistle blows for the end of the period. Students grab up note-books and wraps and shuffle their feet unearly, anxious to get to their next class, but what is a little thing like a whistle to such a professor? He, like Tennyson's brook, goes on forever—or would if the students would stand for it.
As no criticism is justified without some remedy being offered, we offer this suggestion: if the long and extremely boring introduction to the lesson is absolutely indispensable to the professor's peace of mind, let him expound that part in the presence of his wife or his stenographer. Many students would thank them heartily for their martyrdom.
The only other suggestion that presents itself is for the professor to remember that he is only one of many whose rights must be considered, and that students are required to be on time to other classes the same as they are to his. Is that asking too much?
William Jeennings Bryan is advertising that the government pay campaign expenses of candidates for public offices. Wonder if he figured up how much money he'd have saved.
WILD CAT
My little petten smo,
That I love so,
They are wild kittens,
They must not grow.
All alone I take them
Soft and soft to drown,
And brief, all'bubble
Come up where they went down
