U. 32 and 66 The Daily Klimai wants to picture the undergraduate another him; more native yet, and perhaps even further than mere paper tag the word by standing for the four varieties: be, to be; to be清楚; to be clear; to be清楚. To be清楚, to be careful; to be serious problems to water hands; to have serious problems to ability students of the University. MONDAY, MARCH 10, 1924 TEACHING AMERICANS The greatest steam roller in the history of the American Democracy is gradually moving forward in Washington, smoothing well the kinks that have accumulated within the last four years. Income tax reports, ammunition in Mexico, and oil everywhere in under fire of the congressmen, and even the powers behind the roller are not above suspicion. It is not a question of whether al the fraud is detected and the men punished, but it is a question of whether the American people will learn a lesson from the process of investigation. Will they learn the why and whereof of the fraud in government and apply themselves in preventing it to continue? TESTS OF LABOR It is reported that the monarchs of Europe hope to come back. The "Big Boys" at Washington will probably do some hoping also. Must cral and reckless in the challenge which Unionism is harling at its own government in Great Britain. Ramsey Macdonald has as much to fear from his followers in the ranks of organized labor as from the opposition. A railroad and doctor's strike greeted his entrance upon office. His hope of achieving much of a constructive nature no doubt trembles when he considers the great unrest of those who ought to be strongly supported him Disturbances of this sort are more trying to a Labor government than a government of the traditional type. The problem of dealing with a strike situation is complicated greatly by the fact that it may involve the disciplining of the very element from which the government received its mandate. The life of the Labor government and the future of the Labor party lie in the hands of the unions. It seems stupid that they should permit themselves to embarrass their political organization when it has just gained a chance to demonstrate its capacity If Hannsey Mabdonald keeps his head above those troubled waters he will demonstrate a capacity for leadership deserving of the confidence of the people. They found the crud oil under Teapot Dome and refined it under the Capitol dome. "CHEAP STUFF" Lawrence has endured a week of vandence that to say the least was worthless as entertainment. The comedy "pulled" was old and worn out, in fact some of the "would be" jokes have been heard at least twice on the Bowersock stage this year. The chorus could not dance nor were they artistic in any way. And at times the words and actions approached the lowest type of stage vulgarity. Let the moving pictures stay, if a good vaudeville cannot take their place. It would seem that Lawrence located as it is, could draw a fairly high class vaudeville circuit, but so far the Bowersock management has failed to secure one good week's program. OUT WITH THEM Extremely interested in the welfare of the University as a whole, always ready to criticise in a constructive manner, and never failing to offer praise when justified can truly be said of one professor on the Hill. He is a professor of the University and not of the one little department in which he happens to teach. He is a close observer and an active discuser of all things that affect the minds of the campus. He has no pulled himself within his own department to petrify. The University is suffering from professors who see nothing good in any department but their own. They can offer only destructive criticism and lend no aid in helping to develop the weak points. K. U. has no place for the man or woman who turns a deaf ear in the call for aid from any department but is always ready to ridicule and debase. They are enemies to the institution and the state. Their ridiculing is not needed. Out with them! Another proof that the western world is losing its morals is the fact that Mah Jongh is limited to the underworld in China while in the United States it is a high society game. THAT BUG-BEAR In a knowledge of chemistry necessary in order to be able to conceive a good cake or make gravy". Our home economics teachers over the country are inclined to believe it is. The curricula of every school or department of home economics requires at least a year of chemistry, sometimes more. This requirement deprives many individuals who are capable of becoming the best cooks and homemakers of our land of the training they so much desive merely because they cannot grasp the formulas of chemistry. While, no doubt, chemistry is desirable and beneficial in the study of culinary art—still should so much stress be held on it? Should natural-born cooks with that inexplicable knack of knowing how to mix things and make dishes "fit for a king" be forced to major in Journalism or Botany or Geology because they are not "chemically minded" and therefore are excluded from the department in which they are most vitally interested? "Safety First" is probably interpreted in Washington as "Keep your mouth shut." An open mind has its advantages and then again it may be open on both sides.
