WEDNESDAY, MARCH 26.1924 This Russian prince who is a porter must have been the high and mighty guy who seemed to own that train we were on last week. AMERICA IN SHAME America, the egotist of the world is in shame. The oil scandal, in spite of the joke that have been made about it, and the conchance in which many persons have received it because they believe it to be more political propaganda for the coming presidential campaign, is eating at the very heart of the nation in that it is slowly destroying the faith of the American citizens in a government which has for several hundred years been an object of much boasting and pride. AMERICA IN SHAME Not only the scandal itself, but this way in which officials are handling the entire affair, and the fact that it was allowed to drift for so long without being exposed, have shaken America's superb faith in herself and her own institutions. The fact that so few years have passed since the World War which was suppoiled fought for the idols which Americans believed were very nearly carried out in their country, only tends to make the blow a harder one. For America with all her repugnance against hard and exacting, we don't forget those youth who died during these terrible years of war. Now that trusted men and leaders of the nation have proven false and used that system of government to further their own personal gains what is there for the citizens of America to look toward for help? Is America to become the laughing stock of the world or are there a few leaders left who are big enough to forget their own petty jealousies and selfish motives and meet this crisis in national affairs with true patriotism and loyalty? Were the new two year old rules of Persia in Washington today at the head of our government we wonder of his splapling in the puddle of oil could be much more promiscuous than it is now. MEASLES! That vacant chair in the classroom may mean any one of a number of things, of course, but right now it is fairly certain that it means that its supposed occupant is the victim of one of the two current maladies of K. U Does a student have a tiny rash, does he scratch one arm, does he sneez? His classmates edge away suddenly, darting frightened looks in his direction. Suspicious! Look out —you'll get the messles! These first warm days, the lazy spring feeling in the air, are causing many students' minds to turn to the days when they "played hooked" from the seventh grade to shout marbles on bare spots of ground, still mostly chilly although the sun overloads them. The waters of the nearest stream with a tentative bare foot, thinking longly of summer swims. But the hints of spring in the air, while the most romantic, are not the only things which cause students' minds to turn to thoughts of their childhood right now. Measles has annailed K. U. with the same fury that it used to lay low our school mates in grade school. WE RAMBLE "We rambled, we rambled, We rambled all around, In and out the town." WE RAMBLE The engineers sing it, but, in serious aise, it is true of almost all students on the Hill. Yes, we rumble. We rumble when we have lessons to prepare, when we have campus activities on hand, when we have classes to attend. We rumble literally, and we rumble mentally. Ultimate achievement, either of a destination or an idea, attracts us less than the joys of loitering along the hill. This care-free attitude of college students is a traditional, and, all must admit, rather a comfortable state of mind. Rambling through college with a happy-go-lucky philosophy of life and a ha-jazz regard for responsibility is pleasant; but, like so many pleasant things, it is roundly censured by the many admirers of youth as a wafter. We hate to admit it, of course, but perhaps they are right—just this once. After all, the university is supposed to be a training ground for serious life; it is supposed to develop initiative; and executive ability; it is supposed to graduate leaders, not vagrants. And even aside from this, we may be loaining something ourselves. Even as we sometimes find that we have missed a class while strolling leisurely up on the Hill, we may some-time awaken to discover that we have missed some of the best things in our university experience while we rambled along in our happy, irresponsible way. We may find, indeed that "We rambled till the butcher cut us down." "Plan two more probes," says a headline. Better dust off a couple more cases of type, boy. "Franke Takes the initiative," says a headline. From what Germany says, Francie seems to have been taking everything else in sight. "Boy, shocked, will recover." H'm, some of the boys on this hill don't seem to be on the road to normaly. HOW SHALL I KNOW?

If I should ever travel! -Edna St. Vincent Millay Campus Opinion The average student's conception of the library is a place to chat, make dates and litter the floor with as much paper, mud, gum wrappers and the like as possible. The teachers in dealing injustice and inconvenience to the students, who are trying to study at the same table. These are the students making the fuss about closing the library, checking out books and the other "grievances." Now if they have some students within that study hall, they have the consent of all students (not uniforms) to stay away. J. E. L. Co-operation in this day and age has not been developed in the students of Kansas University, who are unwilling to share the books in the libraries with their fellow students. They have always had certain reading materials that has assigned certain readings to the class; and that there are not enough copies to go around, should each take a notion to study at the same time. They have not learned how to use computers, they cannot get what they want, will they attempt to make everyone miserable around or near them. Furthermore these students rush to the library, after a dance at the club or a tete-a-tete with a sweet one, as well as after the studious persons have started to study, then they complain that the book is not there. Should they have so much time to sanderquid; and since time is money, let them save some money by purchasing the book they need as much.
