WHY...?
Why is it that upon going to Spooner to obtain a periodical for a reference it is found that some person has checked out the magazine the day before and has not returned it to the desk. However, the rules of the library are that no periodical is to be taken from the building.
Is it that more stringent rules are needed to protect the welfare of the student in Spooner library? Can the offender be brought to realize the crime he is commitning without more rules and penalties inflicted upon him? Why cannot the evil be remedied?
That there should be a law against having to live with a graduate student who has his first class at 1:30 in the afternoon, is the profound conviction of the Freshman who has a five-hour 8:30 in West Ad.
HARRY SINCLAIR
HARRY Sinclair
Before the stench of oil arose to offend the nortris of the nation, the name "Harry Sinclair" meant several things. It is his name which graces the country-side as the purveyor of Sinclair Oil's. His early days in the oil game were spent in Independence, Kansas, and his rise to wealth and fame was one of the most spectacular of the American fairy tales in high finance.
His reputation as a millionaire sportman reached the peak recently when his horse "Zev" won over the English favorite "Papyrus."
And he at the height of his power and in the prime of life was figuratively speaking "sitting on the world." But even then borers were at work undermining the foundation of his financial structure which was neither wisely built nor well.
When the investigations regarding Teapot Dome became a little too personal he took the first liner to Europe, carrying with him all the iniminating evidence which was on paper. The extent to which he employed illegal means to secure the lease of Teapot Dome is not known and probably never will be.
At present his complicity in the affair is given the appearance of being minimized because the greater searchlights are trained upon those men who were connected with the government. Sincirr returns to the United States and probably will take up his life as usual, retaining all his influence and power without even the discomfort of an attempt to break through the barriers of social ostracism.
both officers.
America can countenance pirating and use of foul means as well as fair in business, but when the breath of a mistake or slight notice of what might be called criminal negligence is observed in government circles, she draws her skirts about her and turns a lifted shoulder. The man involved is an Outaste.
Women to have chance to play men's part-headline. Might work all right in play but doubtful in the cold realities of life.
--and that they such actions of students should be made the scandal talk of the homes in two states has never been discovered. It seems that student bodies are extraordinarily queer and unusual—and therefore should have unusual attention. And if the truth were ever told it would be self-d established that the actions justified the reports.
If some people could see themselves as others see them, the undertakers would be worked to death burying people who had been killed by shock
Railway tickets are the only cheen thing in Berlin. Are the Germans trying to make it easy to get out or easy to get in?
A BOSS-RULED HILL
The campus will soon be agog with politics. Already both parties have had preliminary meetings to block out the platforms and consider possible candidates.
A BOSS-RULED HILL
The situation is bad. Boss rule here is not intelligible, though loud would be the clamor of denial at the accusation. The political leader of the group goes to the party caucus and makes out the ticket promo for the support of his group. He then returns to his constituents and gives them instructions about how to vote. And we beside the individual who strives from the beaten path. His name is spoken of with contempt. He has dared use his own mind and has voted according to the dictates of his own conscience. That is a crime punishable by social ostracism. The election for University government offices is not the only place one finds the boss-club condition. Departmental clubs and professional fraternities are working under this handicap, but be it said to their credit they are breaking away to a great and even greater extent.
The University of Missouri has had the misfortune of receiving some front page space recently on account of a student mis-deanor. Kansas has had her annual dose.
TURN ABOUT
Distance makes things seem smaller to the eye—but, somehow, it seems to magnify reports of events and all rumors.
Kinnans on Mount Oread can do well to remember how the tales of Jayhawk escapes have been magnificent and not be too ready to gossip about Missouri. And the best thing for the populations of two states to do will be to consider well a number of things which common sense will dictate, and not commence condemnation of the state institutions right away.
Andy Gump is about the only prominent politician left whose name has not been mentioned in connection with the oil scandal.
"The Republicans must clean house," says Hiram Johnson. Mr. Johnson probably believes in the old adage, "a new broom sweeps clean," and would like to be the broom for the next four years.
The last few days of pleasant weather have minimized the danger of an epidemic of colds on the chest among this year's crop of new initiates to receive their respective fraternity badges.
In the spring, the fat man's fancy lightly turns to thoughts of reducing.
Campus Opinion
To the Editor of the Kauaian:
After the debate with Argentine officials, we were asked to say a few words about the debate to the audience. Among other things, he said this debate was not up to the usual standard we may expect. The Valley used this debate, co-defense of debate for two years in one of the schools of the state and now occupies the chair of economics in one of the colleges of the state. He added that his ability to question our own in selecting him as a judge.
or of the Kansan:
squad. He was accustomed to literary societies where debate furnishes a prominent part in the weekly programs. At debates in this school the yell-lender is present; few yells before and after the debate, whether they win or lose. The names of debaters are as honored as those of athletic stars. No wonder that from this era, the Rhodus debatus was selected yearly.
Before the decision, he was spoken of as a man of wide experience who usually voted with the other members in his team. There were lack of sportsmanship on the part of one member of the Kansas队 in personally insulting him after the decision. But that is not what he did. He was at the University of Kansas up to the standard we set in scholarship and athletic. How could it be? To make an argument team require a whole support team. So the same thing must be behind debate.
The judge was coach of debate in a school where enough students try out for debate to make a football game.
It takes too many long hours preparing the material and drilling for a debate for many students to try out for the small honor at K. The handful of relatives and few others who attend the debate Fri. will only a sample. Admission was free and the expenses were paid by the group who attended the wrestling match on the same night. If our team won basketball, we should have a poorly named team we should say we are from K.U. in a whisper.
Does it pay to support debate? It affords unusual training in leadership. The leaders of the country will not all be selected from the basketball team. This will still matter. The leadership is somewhat encouraged at K, U, but the student body pass by on the other side. Our debaters are to be commanded. To expect them to make debates it ought to be conducive with activities at K, U, would be expecting the impossible. The student body deserves whatever criticism was given by the judge. The batters are to be conducive that they would did the. Angie game came in for their share of the criticism.
There are yet a few more chances to show our appreciation of the d bate team this year. Will you be there?
TO A FRIEND DEPARTED
P. V. B.
Gone! She has left me for you!
With a tinkling laugh she departed.
Gone! And she said not "Goodbye."
Just left me broken-hearted.
She was slenderly formed and as fat
as a moonblood in the night;
for voice was of silver, and rave;
and rave a moodless ennail!
Her voice was of silver, and rare; Her face—a goddess quite!
cherished her so and preserved her.
She is gone! Gone, for all time!
*married her so and conserved her*
Ah me? How I loved that! He!
