The Daily Kenanime aims to picture the undergraduate University of Chicago as a farther than the university the news uses by standing for the ideals of higher education, to be inquisitive, to be charming, to be clever; to be curious, to be serious and to have mere problems to water bodies; to have the ability to understand the shadow of the University.

YOUTHFUL VIEWS
It would probably be a dangerous world to live in, if the affairs of state and of business were in the hands of youth. Things might move at a terrific reckless speed. The rates of money-spending would hardly surpass the snobbing, and the old folks might live in misery.
With things as they are, youth sits back stretching its "leather neck" to see and hear all it can.
The old folks are doing fine. They have a prohibition law that is observed occasionally; two shameful scandals are in the process of development as a result of the political system; and the Ku Klux Klan is on hand to help save the nation.
The old folks are strangers to the political life of the nation. Perhaps the present mess will open at least one eye on something other than youth. Perhaps in the coming presidential election some of them will take the trouble to vote. Perhaps by the time youth grows up the world will have passed its state of chaos.
At present, while youth is being criticised, it is sitting back observing, laying the foundation for the structure in which it may save the world as a safe place for the old folks in their dotage.
WE SEE THEM PASS
A great prima donna says, "sing and all your ills will vanish." So will your friends.
Old North College has gone away;
a brand new multi-story dormitory
has usurped its plot of ground.
These old buildings of ours are no more as permanent as they seem with their massive stones, square, substantial classrooms and solid looking balustrades.
Within a few days, recently, the occupants of Fraser Hall deserted her in a body and migrated to the shiny new Administration building. Fraser is shabby and old. In spite of her repeated redecorations, like a many times made over dress, she can never be made to look new.
The new library is pushing its way up in the background, crowding out Snow hall and the humble Journalism building. Soon Spooner, too, will be deserted in favor of the new structure.
One sighs as each old building passes. But this is change. And change must be, since it is one of the great cosmic forces of our universe.
The old must die to give the new their life.
THE COLORADO
Away in the hills it commences,
Up where the world is clean,
Laughingly it falls to the lowlands
A sparkling, clear, green stream
Through, the busy market it hurries,
Away out over the plain,
Quenches the thirst of a lovely ranch.
ero. Plunges into the mountains again.
Cuts a path through the magenta sandstone.
Takes to itself an amber hue,
Learns another song from the deeper
A song that is harsh, and new.
It drops in seething yellow white, Shearing a song wild and free, And crushing all before it Rushes on, out to the sea.
Love was voted the most beautiful word in the English language by the class in History of the English language at Mt. Holyoke. But that is so unusual? Wouldn't any other girls' school vote the same way?
Third largest generator in the world to be used—headline. What did they make it for, anyway, to look
A REWARD
Forseeing the possibilities of a K. U. stadium, and predicting the work which Kansas would accomplish in the field of athletics, K.U. people welcomed the construction of the building on old McCook field.
Now comes the announcement that the midwestern try-outs for the Olympic game, the peer of sport officials, will be held in the Kansas stadium.
The announcement means much to the University and to everyone connected with it. It is the recognition of opportunity foreseen, and service well rewarded.
The men say there nothing to this rule that a woman's as old as she looks—for nowadays they're generally older.

The annual argument as to whether he peach crop will be killed is now a full swing.
Campus Opinion
Editor of the Kansan*
The address of Dean Arant on the World Court before the Women's Forum calls my attention to the fact that many of us forget that the expression "entangling alliances" is washing ashore. In line with its inaugural, where it follows immediately his mention of "honest friendship with all nations" as one of the essential principles of our government. Can there be any more "honesty" friendship with them than joining with them in a League
What Washington advised his people to "steer clear of" was "permanent alliances," not co-operative associations. He made them avoid permanent alliances, and also particular nations and passionate attachment for others." Then he adds that "heral intercourse with all nations is recommended by policy," and that he emphasizes that the "best rules of intercourse that present circumstances will permit" should be but "temporary and liable to be from time to time abounded in circumstances that present circumstances shall dictate." This shows that Washington was no standatter in international relations, and that he gave no warning against such international interactions with joining the present League of Nations.
Again, the idea that the people of the United States have rejected the League and in turn supported it. They have never had a chance to vote directly upon them. President Harding during his campaign for election several times expressed approval of such an action, but the most prominent Republicans, including Ex-President Taft, Secretaries Hughes and Hoover, President Lowell of Harvard and Dr. Lyman Herschel, who was the way to get the League was to vote for Harding. No doubt many followed that advice. Surely a large number of Republicans did not want the Democrats and are joined by the mass of the Democrats, in spite of the fact that they recognize that it needs some amendments, as done our Constitution still, in addition to his already received time from time to time.

At The Theater
There were some very good voices in the company, and all were passable. Patrick Kelly as Baron Franz Schober missed a few of the high notes, and otherwise struggled with parts of his singing, but for its the cast made up by him, Franz had a good voice, and was thoroughly liked despite a homely makeup.
One of the finest musical shows seen in Lawrence visited here last night. It was "Blossom Time." From first to last it was a thoroughly enjoyable entertainment. And the road edition of this stage show was far above the standard of orchestral shows which play the local boards.
By Ted Wear
many of his melodies. The ending to the second act, where Schubert and lost his love, and remains true to his "one mistress, music," is one of the finest dramatics movements seen in the theater. The entrance of the comedy relief, embodiment Mr. Kraus in his third act, was jaring and discordant, especially in view of the dramatic tension just preceeding.
The cast as a whole was very good, from the smallest supernumerary to the leading roles. For once, the chorus seemed not at all necessary, in fact merely to be the success of the production. Flo Keeley, as the dancer, was graceful and good-looking, a rather rare combination.
Plain Tales From The Hill

A girl at Corbin hall the other day was called to the phone, and after a long conversation with the man at the police station that he wanted to talk to the maid.
Student: "A perfect figure."
One K. U. man was requested to set, back a picture of his girl in Chicago. He complied with the request, but before doing so, he called a local photographer, then sent the original on its way with a clear heart —?
The F. A. U. u. ball was more crowded than Ecke's at the Lemp Year Varsity, according to some of those who went. It is mad by others that the decorations at F: A. U. made the place darker than those at Ecke's.
One fair damned was climbing the hill Monday morning when she heard an unusual noise, a kind of mixed grunt and squeal, behind her. She saw the man jumping into him, "Did you drop your books?" "No, I dropped myself."
the hall her escort was an entirely different one.
Aprepos of Ted Hudson's projected trip to the Orient, told about in Monday's Kansan, one woman said, "Why, it takes thirty days to go to the Orient.
Man: Why I got a letter from the Philippines in thirty days recently.
Woman: Well, some mail boats make it in twenty-eight days.
Second Man: Well, wouldn't he go on a male boat?

The Boullier lenses for the Blenders today. You won't understand the relief we feel if you only look at the lens with only a mild tilt because a source of from-air refraction and a large share of the credit belongs to Boullier.
The art work on the opening pages, however, and we were struck by an unusual number of well-written images. In one of these images the handiest approval has appeared: the handiest approval approach is to use a sketch that is unfinished, but I wish to uphold the staff's impression that our assistance for the easiest workability, sensitive material, can be handled more than any other feature failure. It is worth noting the fact that our hands have contributed more than any other feature failure.
