The Daily Kaaan aims to picture the undergraduate life of the students, in order to then merely printing the news by standing for the unions. The University wants students to be clean; to be cheerful; to be charitable; to be courageous; to be kind and to be wise. Cans, in all, to serve to the best of its ability the students of Kaaan.

AN ASSET TO K. U.
The concert to be given by the Glee Club at Ottawa, January 18, should be the first of a series of concerts throughout the state. A good glee club is one of the best advertisements a school can have. We have the good club and all we need to do is let the people of the state know it.
Several schools and colleges send out clubs or quartets during the summer months to recruit students.
A tour by our Glee Club would be particularly advantageous at this time for K. U. as a part of the Loyalty Movement.
It is sincerely hoped that our visiting Kansas merchants will have agreeable weather during their visit' on the campus. Unaccustomed as they are to the ice on the slopes of Mount Oread, far greater difficulties than questions of salesmanship and store management will await them if pavements are as slippery at that time as at present. And even with agreeable weather, we hope none of them on their way to lectures in West Ad will be unfortunate enough to subsidize their or scuff their shoes on our extensive board sidewalks.
LET'S GO KANSAS
The eyes of the country are, at the present time, again upon Kansas. The cause lies in the proposed Allen bill for an industrial court, for which a specialisation of the state legislature has been called, is order that definite action may be taken immediately.
In the past year, much attention has been called to Kansas, largely through the prominence of our governor, Henry J. Allen. After having spent some time overseas, Governor Allen returned and caused an investigation to be made, as to the reason for the casualties being so great in the thirty fifth division. Again, during the recent coal strike, Governor Allen inaugmented the plan of volunteers worn in the coal mines, which plan was ver successful. At the close of the strike the volunteer miners were approach in very near to the normal product of the mines, when worked by the regular miners. On both of these occasions, Governor Allen took the initiative and did something, that no only benefitted his state but the entire nation as well.
And now, Governor Allen gives the country a plan to put a check upon the existing labor difficulties, by legislating against strikes and establishing an industrial court, where all persons accused of attempting to cause trouble affecting industry, will be tried and, if convicted, will be punished by fine or imprisonment or both.
Party lines have been wiped out
most wholly on the industrial court bill, as among those who favor it are the leading Democrat of the two houses. It is a question in which the entire nation is interested and will bring about the solution of a problem, which has been endangering the country for some time.
Kansas, through old John Brown, made slavery a national question and brought about its ats. And now Kansas is considering a law, which may point the way to the national solution of the industrial problem.

THE STUDENTS EVOLUTION
The evolution of the University stu-
dent's spirit does not take place in
one or two leaps but is a steady
development which gradually changes
the character of the individual.
The high school graduate enters the University with unlimited ideas and more or less fixed and high ideals. The University graduate enters the world with just as many ideas, but ideas of an entirely different nature. His ideals may still be fixed, but they have undoubtedly been greatly changed, and the height of them depend upon how much of a success he has been in college.
Of course, every type of freshman is very much like and very much unlike his fellows. The beginner is ambitious at first, whether on one line or on another. He will either work a lot or play a lot, but before the year is over he will feel that he is not getting as much out of his school life as he should. If he works hard, he feels that others are getting by by doing less, and with pleasure as well as hard study. The ones who play most of the time suffer moments of repentance and often possess a guilty conscience that they are not doing themselves and their home folks justice. There are extremes in all cases. Some students play all the time, some work all the time, and there are a few who know how to do both in moderation
To the average student, the first year is one filled with hopes and the acquiring of a general knowledge of University affairs. At this time he learns how to study and makes up his mind as to the courses he expects to pursue, decides what activities he wishes to belong to and what type of a student he expects to be. The sophomore year is more or less of a turning point. During that year, the student works for the ends that he has in view. Whether or not he is successful determines to a great extent his character as a junior. The third year is more or less of a grind. If the student is not satisfied with his beginning, the year will be monotonous. His type as student is settled by that time and his activities conform with his type. But whatever type he is, he will have plenty to do.
The senior year finishes the college development. Everyone tries to complete what he has started and to make up for those things he has missed. He may be tired of study but few are glad to leave. If any have gone through the four years without making any particular mark in their career, they leave with fear in their hearts. But those who have lived up to their highest ideals and have been a success, enter the world courageously with high hopes for the future.

In the wild and woolly west a game of poker was in progress. A tenderfoot, looking on, saw one of the players deal himself four acres from the bottom of the pack. The tenderfoot whispered indiscrimently to an onlooker:
Apparently mixing and selling poison which brings quick blindness and sudden death with it is easily accomplished. When the lists of those who were murdered by a vicious story as a result of drinking the stuff are prepared the authorities do not seem to have any difficulty in finding the retailer who dispensed it, the truck drivers who carried it from one compartment to the other and the companifiers of the wile deception.

Ashes of love, charred letters, faded heliotrope.
What is duet?
Rose petals fallen from a dead hand,
Spiders, bats, deserted houses crumbling

Dust is rainbow webs caught in sweet hot smelling hedges.
And wheel, ruts where vanished arm-
ies have passed. . .
In that call?
Lovers pinchting by the houseline,
And regamuffins tumbling in the
warm lanes.
Circuses, parasols, preening pigeons,
Lovers nibbling by the roadside
Oh dust is sun and laughter.
Jayhawks Flown
And it is dust that keeps my eyes
from being blinded by the stars!
From being blinded by the stars
—Dorothy Anderson in Contemporary Verse.
Circuses, parasails, preening pigeons,
Lovers picknicking by the roadside,
And ragamuffins tumbling in the
