BE READY WITH YOUR SHARE
About all a "Good fellow" ever gets to be is just that.
The Y. M. C. A. drive for funds which is to begin Wednesday night deserves the support of every student. For the activities of this organization are not confined to any limited number of students, but to all who take advantages of the opportunities it offers.
It's a man's sized organization and it does men's work. It is the clearing house between the new student and his college life. Through its efforts the student first finds in location. If he is in need of work it locates a job for him. Its first benefits to the new student is of a practical nature.
Its general purpose is to develop a Christian fellowship among the students on the Hill. After adjusting the student to his new environment, the Y. M. C. A. nams at the development of the right kind of character. It is the support for the man who is headed in the direction of broad, clean manhood. It represents the Christian part of the K. U. suirt and renders a service to every man who favors the right over the wrong.
It is strictly a campus organization and the funds raised will apply to its campus work. To refuse a subscriptions to the Y. M. C. A. because of a general dialike incurred for the Y. M. C. A. in France is as illogical as refusing to read a new book because the last book read was poor. The K. U. organization has never failed in its welfare work among the students.
DEPEND ON COUNTRY CLUBS
The K. U. loyalty campaign will not have performed one of its biggest pieces of work if it fails to organize all the students into county clubs. It has been pointed out that live, patriotic and loyal county clubs can do as much as any other one agency to further the interests of the University throughout the state. The methods by which such clubs may arouse interest in the University in the home towns of the students are many, yet only three counties, Linn, Pratt, and Miami, are known to have effected organizations.
The movement must spread. It should be one of the easiest and most effective means of propagating loyalty. As a part of the loyalty program the growth of the county club program will be watched, and the vignor of the movement rightly will be viewed as an index to the quality and force of the whole "K. U. First" effort.
MORE ROOSEVELTS NEEDED
The advent of Theodore Rosevelt Jr., into politics is a move of peculiar interest to the student of American government. This is true not merely because Mr. Rosevelt has been elected to the New York assembly, thereby following the footsteps of his father; it is because Mr. Rosevelt definitely and avowed has entered upon a political career. Politics is to be his business For this he has prepared himself, and for this he is eminently fitted.
The need of American governmen today is more men of his kind. It is not the true professional politician who is to be desired—it is the ignorant, untrained professional officer that we should sain. We need professional politicians—men who have trained for public office. When in America we have developed such a class of man, and not before, will the stigma attached to the man in politics be removed. Not until then will true democracy begin to function.

As a means of bringing down the prices of foods that cost too much the one already tried by the National Housewives' League and now again advised by it is sure to be successful. The reason for being more than a refusal to buy the objectionable expensive articles until they can be obtained more cheaply. At present the suggestion is to buy boycotter, coffee, and eggs. It is a good idea to purchase the casseroles of life, but not really deserving that name while other things to take their place can be obtained, and the third being little, if anything, more than a luxury the abandonment of and the third being nobody and do some people good.
BOYCOTTING HIGH GRUB
The planners of the boycott should remember, however, that while, in the way proposed, the prices of these goods are lower than they would do to it will require the united action of a large number of housewives, and they must be prepared to encounter, as an inevitable result of their triumph, such conditions which to them turn as substitutes.

They would be wiser, probably, if they did not attempt to do so much at one—if they concentrated, that is, on a single food, and waited till they had brought its price down before they tackled another. And, after all, better than a boyfriend of anything is the careful and economical use of money; it is the most waste and excess that is best calculated to bring consumption into adjustment to scanty supply—New York Times.
EXIT THE WHITE COLLAR
An amusing idea, not without its element of plausibility, is put forward by a writer who sees the times moving toward a period when the blue shirt associated with the so-called workingman will be the typical garment of professors, teachers, clocks, dressers, and starched collar will distinguish the workingman. "Perhaps it will then be said, upon the political stump and elsewhere," continues the writer that "the honest college professor in his blue shirt and overalls, with his dinner pail over his arm"; "theigner with bright blue patches on his sleeves; the grim face of his proclaiming garment" ought to have a "living salary" and be encouraged to aspire to the possession of a white shirt and collar for Sunday. The writer, one imagines,forces himself in a blue shirt. And yet under the economic perplexities which now boost us, one may help by adopting this new position that a large proportion of mankind is honestly seeking the "square deal" for everybody. —Christian Science Monitor
