The Daily Kansan aims to picture the undergraduate life of the students. The students are then more than merely printing the news by recording for the ideas the University presents to be clean; to be cheerful; to be charitable; to be courteous; to solve problems to wiser Leaders; in all, to serve to the University.

SIMPLE ENROLLMENT
"Two Women Faint in Mad Rush" might have been the news head in today's Kansas if the old plan of knockdown, drug-out enrollment had been in using enrollments the four thousand students for the second semester, but with the two student government beds working with the faculty, the enrolment was conducted in a very orderly manner, with no mad scramble for first come, first served.
The long lines of waiting were avoided at the enrollment tables at the gym, by designating the hours certain students should come. This was done alphabetically, the letters being drawn from a hat so there would be no discrimination as to who would enroll first. As it turned out, the students whose last name began with B, enrolled at 8:30, those beginning with M, S, U, Y, at 9:30, and on through the list
The plan hit upon was simple enough, but yet is not used until this semester. The Women's Student Government Association and the Men's Student Council should be commended for their ability to cope with the problem, and the success of the plan has again proved that students can govern themselves.
Spring is here!
SPRING
Van says so, because yesterday morning he went forth with his trusty thorn club. Nimroding, and amote a mole upon the bean. The appearance of the lovely blind earth-digger at this stage of the game, according to Van indicates an early and favorable sea son.
And yesterday being February the tooth, sometimes known as "Ground-Hug Day" Van who says he is acquainted with one of the earth swine, says he looked him up and shot him, —because his seeing his shadow would have indicated a couple more moons of winter blasts.
Between all these indications, and the fight of the Sour Owr, even though so greatly sweetened from the good old days of yellow squirreth“Van says that beyond the least doubts, “spring has came.”
And who would put Van's prognostications up against the fallible prophecies of some mere scientist, such as P. Conner, et al?
BACK TO LIFE
For several years, and especially during the period of the war, it has been very evident that baseball in the colleges all over the country was gradually slumping out. In the Missouri Valley for the last two years, only three universities have put teams on the diamond. But this year things are different. College baseball, which was
being mourned as dead throughout the country. has suddenly come to life.
This year, schools in every state in the union, schools that never before took any active interest in baseball, are planning to support nines. Enthusiasts is at its height for the national sport and recently Cornell University closed a contract for two of the country's most famous professional ball players as coaches of their team and made the most complete schedule in their history.
At the meeting of the Missouri Val ley conference offices in Kansas City early in the winter, every school in the organization with the exception of Grinnell, a new member, voted to put the national sport back among the major college sports and to put a team on the diamond. Missouri, Kansas, Oklahoma, Ames, Kansas Aggies, Washington and Drake are going to play the game and St. Mary's, Baker, Emporia Normal and possibly other Kansas Conference schools will resume it.
Pre-season prospects for a winner at K. U., are the best they have been in several years. Advance dope from other colleges in the Valley announce the same bright prospects and it looks as if baseball was back in the good graces of the Valley to stay and that the circuit is in for a merry race.
K. U.—BENEFICIARY
When a man who was never a student in the University of Kansas has the institution enough at heart to leave a Loan Fund of $20,000 to be known as the Frank C. Miller Loan Fund, it again is distinct evidence that the alumni and students of the University can come across in the present Million Dollar Campaign. It is such men as the late Frank C. Miller of Kansas City, Missouri who have continually come to the aid of Kansas, and it is with many thanks that the students of the University receive the new loan fund.
Many a struggling student who is trying hard for an education will find that such a loan will be of great help to him.
NOONDAY CLUB
Two-hundred and fifty men gather every Thursday at 2:30 for the Noonday Luncheon Club at Myers Hall. Two-two hundred and fifty men are representative men of the University. They are students, athletes, professors, conches, business men from down town who have student interests at heart, and ministers of Lawrence. Speakers are obtained who have a real genuine message for the men, in a short, decisive talk of fifteen to twenty minutes. The rest of the time the men eat their lunch and 'mill around, getting acquainted
All this explanation has been given with a purpose so that students may realize what an institution the Noonday Lunchone is becoming in the University of Kansas. As soon as its membership overflows Myers Hall, the Club will stop over to the Gym where any number of men could be fed Right here is where a Student Union would come in handy. It could serve a Noonday Lunchone Club with proper food and rooms. One more reason why we want a Student Building.

Jane Adams, now famous for her welfare work, which is carried on at Hull House in Chicago, tells of her childhood ambitions, which seems far unworthy we would expect of a child born to a second-born become famous for settlement work.
"in regard to my ambitions," Miss Addams writes in reply to inquiries made by the Kansas, "I believe I have never wanted any more of my child, I wanted to have a miller's thumb, that is to have my right thumb flattered as my father's was. I used to sit contentedly so ra long time, rubbing the ground with my hands in hopes of flattening my thumb so that it would resemble my father's."
Fortunately, this was not Miss Adana's only ambition or the one which dominated her later life. Her father being a miller in a poor settlement, she worked as a very young nurse learned that all people did not enjoy the same advantages.
"I recall an incident" says Miss Aidams, "which must have occurred before I was seven years old. I was visiting in a very poor district one day when I received conditions of poverty which imply equal. I remember asking my
squalior. I remember asking my father why people lived in such horris little houses so close together, and after receiving his explanation, I declared with firmness a large house, not built among other big houses but right in the midst of horrid little houses like these."
Mika Addams has achieved this childhood ambition in establishing Hull House which was started in 1889. She has also been inspector of Streets and Allways for three years, President of the National Conference Charities 1909, and a writer and lecturer on social and political reform.
When we see what a success Mis Addams has made of her life, we sometimes wonder if we, whose chief ambition now is, similar in importance to her desire for a miller's thumb, may not later develop and carry out other ambitions which will be of importance to the world.
Literature and the Thin-Skinned The Scotenam of Newark, who have asked for the exclusion of "Macebeth" from the schools as a counter to the demand for the exclusion of "The Merechant of Venice," refute the charge that the Caledonian lacks a sense of humor. With great soreness, they gravely point out that the Thane of Cawdor was not a remembrance less villain; that his death was due to Duncan's, and that the latter matter his dead not by secret murder but in open battle, and that even were Macbeth as black as painted it is insulting to present him as a representative of Scotland.
The business of excluding is capable of definite expansion. The Welshman may require that American youth be not poisoned by knowledge of Fluconil, the Englishman demanding a dose of it; he cannot be not mention of Louis XI, the Italian ignorance concerning Lucretia Borgia, the Spaniard a deletion of "Don Quixote," and the Russian ask for no mention of Ivan the Terrible or Trotsky—a long list of affronts to the various national elements going into the American melting pot compiled from literature and history.
Did Kipling flatter when he said that after all the Americans would be saved whole by "by mine ancient humo?" Are skins to thin that even a feather touch of ours will break us we lost capacity to grin when colored pictures of ourselves are thrown on the screen? Is so, a quality has gone out of American life of which once there were proud bouts. But despite their accolades, we never present few except themselves. If you doubt it, see a Jewish audience scream with laughter as a Jewish ac- denita Abe Potash.
Mrs. Newlywed was speaking proudly to her caller of their new house, and told of its having hollow block walls, thus ensuring plenty of ventilation.
"Then why did he make a fool out of himself."

is a genuine novelty. We have come to expect great things from Doug Fairbanks; we sometimes wonder where he can possibly get any more new ideas from. Yet he comes along with a picture like this and simply carries us off our feet. "When the Clouds Roll By" is so new and original in story and action, so far away from anything that has been attempted before, that we go on record now with the prediction that every laugh-loving, thrill-loving man, woman and child in town will be talking about Fairbanks and his picture before the week is half over.
