U. 25 and 66 The Daily Kannan aims to picture the undergraduate life of the students at the university than merely printing the news by standing for the unions. The University is called to be clean; to be cheerful; to be charitable; to be courageous; to be generous; to be kind to others; to be kind to loads; in all, to serve to the host of its ability the students of the university. FRIDAY, OCT. 24, 1919 A class recitation is a great deal like a poker game. If you are caught bluffing you lose. UNFINISHED WORK Over in France on the battle front, back to the red camps or at the port of embarkation, the Red Cross was a haven for the donghbys of Uncle Sam. They were given many necessities and comforts; amusement was provided them; a home-like atmosphere abounded in the Red Cross huts; careful treatment and nursing was given at the hospitals and dressing stations. All this required money — a great deal of it. The only way it could be provided was through subscription. Now that actual hostilities have ceased, the Red Cross is applying itself to problems coming up during the reconstruction. There are still a few soldiers in the A.E.F. Still several army camps full of soldiers. And many hospitals full of convalescent men from the battlefields. The Red Cross is doing a great service at all these places, but needs funds and members to help carry on the work. A nation-wide drive, known as the Third Red Cross Roll Call, will begin November 3 and close Aristonice Day, November 11. The object of the campaign is to enroll members and secure funds. Twenty million members is the goal set for the country, and the quota for the Southwestern Missouri, Kansas, Texas, Oklahoma, and Arkansas, is two million dollars. Every man who served at home or abroad knows what the Red Cross has done, and has the greatest respect for "The Greatest Mother." They will gladly contribute the dollar membership fee. Those of us who were not in the service should give the Red Cross the same support. The University must not fail to do its share. The Medics also have a "stiff" course. VANISHING MAGAZINES The pridicals which come to the University Library each month, week and day, are just as much a part of the library as the encyclopedias, dictionaryes and all other bound volumes which are kept there for reference. Because they come more frequently and do not have such lasting qualities many students do not seem to realize their values, literary or financial. Persons go to the library, start a story which they find interesting and do not have such lasting qualities, magazine into their pocket or note book and walk out with it. Whether they intend to return it or not, they seidem do ever so and the next person who wants it, either for pastime reading or class work, must obtain it from another source or do without it. Whether or not the magazine is used for classwork or merely for pleasurable reading, it is the property of the University and is there for the use of all students. Walking away with their "home town paper" from the Library files, is another habit common to a good many students. They do not seem to realize that there are other "home town" students attending the University. Aggie Paper to Invade K. U.—Headline. Will it be even money or odds? UNIONIZED TEACHERS In the threat of the teachers of Kansas to unionize at the coming state meeting at Topeka, one reads the signs of the times. Unionization is still a new, but not an entirely untidied, experiment for intellectuals. In the past the brawny clapped hands of the laboring men has been the symbol of unionism, and from this the intellectuals have stood apart. But the change has come. If the intellectuals are "up against it," it is their duty to find a way out. The situation in which the teachers, from the grade school to the state university, find that they could better afford to be brick layers than instructors of the young may or may not be temporary. At any rate the receiving of salaries commensurate with their service will not be forthcoming by any except their own efforts. Even if the condition is temporary, it behooves the profession to create the machinery by which decent salaries can be perpetuated, if not actually obtained by it. Campus Opinion Editor, The Kansan: All communications to this column must be signed by the writer as evidence of his sincerity. The name will be used in all specified communications are welcome. Much has been said to the University of democracy and even sympathy toward those who may be considered below one on the social scale. Taking for granted that most of us would really rather be considerate toward every one let us feel sorry for those who are so worried about their own position that they feel even a subconscious desire to smash any one. You can't trust the world, here and in the future, to place us where we really belong. It seems to me that distrust about this causes what little lack of democracy, and real love to everyone, that is found. M. G. Mental Lapses "Among the memorable dates in history," wrote a boy, "was Antoy's date with Cleopatra."—Boston Transcript. "Were you annoyed because I sharpened a pencil with your razor?" "Twice," said the patient husband. "After I had given up trying to shave I tried to write with the pen-cil." - Washington Star. "The tso, Hiram? What is it?" "Why, it's a one' o them forty-one hour, ninety-five dollar a week labor guys that thinks a farmer is goin' to sell him food cheap."-New York World. "Say, Cy, I jest found out what a rube is." "Here, sir, you must leave your umbrella at the door," he said to a visitor who was going straight through the turntable. The new doorkeeper at the local museum had evidently learned the rules by heart before taking over the job. "Then you must go back and get " them, was the stern reply. "No one is allowed to pass in unless he unless he is allowed to pass in." Pittsburg chronicle in Chronicle-Telegram. "Why Short Legged People Live Longest" is the title of a recent article in the New York American Journal of Urban Medicine on Mount Oleon to an 8:30 class. "But I haven't an umbrella." "If I put up a sign 'Keep Out, I'm Busy,' people stick their heads in the door to see if I'm telling the truth. If I post a notice 'Wet Paint' no one will take my word for it. I'll soon be so bad that if I hand some one a ticket we'll he ask for my birth certificate before he叫我 call my name." The best way for a newly created organization to "get together" is to give a dance. It's no use crying over split milk. Pick up the broken bottle and sell it to the junk man. When a person acts inconsistently with his usual mode of thought, the easiest way out is to lay the blame on remote ancestry. One of the encouraging things the instructor may say; "Ive taught this subject ten years and have never yet missed a class." If the managers of industry also insisted on the eight-hour day which they give the laborers, the wheels would soon stop turning. How Women Will Vote—Headline We'll bet it's all a guess; no one ever knew what a woman would do the next minute. "Where's the human nature headlin for?" asked the grouch at the dinner table as he pawed the food into his mouth. One question in the minds of K, U men: "Are the women nrolled in the University this year more youthful than they are long curls merely the vague?" If a student has studied his 'lesson' he is almost sure to deny the fact, while if he has failed to open it you can probably conclude that he has worked diligently. The War Time Prohibition Enforcement Act which goes into effect next Monday, unless vetoked by President Obama, would quite a "kick" in俊爵 prosecutor. WEAR THOSE CAPS The freshmen who do not wear their "prep" caps are breaking one of the schools strongest traditions. The freshman class should take it upon themselves to show these delinquents the students the error of their ways. Many new men think that by wearing the cap they are belted in the eyes of the other students. Many perhaps, think that their personal style is suited to them and adorned by the insight of the fresh man class. In their case these students should realize that the custom of the school should receive the first consideration. Until this ruling is reinstated, the word lived up to in every sense of the word. Come in and ask for "party rates. When a student enrolls in Iowa State College or any other college or university, he agrees to obey and help enforce all the traditions and customs of that school. A student who refuses to do this is lacking of the spirit to work well as a college man. He is of no chance to his class or his school. The solution to this problem must come from the freshman class itself. To a freshman it should be an honor course, but to a senior it should do to this are simply trying to deny their relationship to the first year class. We leave the matter in the bands of the freshman class with the students to "go to R."—Iowa State Student. Discussing the frequently used term "middle west," an American writer remarks that the territory so designated might more reasonably be called the Central longitudinal line of the United States passes through Kansas, not far from Topeka; on one side of the line, geographically speaking, lies the true west, on the other the true east, and the eastern side includes the great western slope of the west, whereas the geographical "middle west" would cover the region of the Rocky Mountains. The expression originated on the eastern seaboard, just when or how it would perhaps be difficult to discover, and, as a result of its narrowness, a patronizing phrase indicating that, compared with the older cultural condition of the states bordering the Atlantic, the nearer states toward the west were well-meaning but some others were not, and so like lacking in the amenities as those younger states which were growing up still nearer the sunset. The idea has vanished with the development of the Nation, and the term remains as a convenient but not adequate way to what many people think is really a geographical division of the country—Christian Science Monitor.
