The Daily Kansan aims to picture the undergraduate life of the university than merely print the news by standing for the ideals the University promotes or should be clean; to be cheerful; to be charitable; to be courageous; to be wise; to be wiser heads; in all, to serve to the students of the University. FRIDAY, SEPT. 26, 1919. NO FLU TO FEAR The announcement of Doctor Bullock, of the Kansas City Board of Health, that there need be no fear of the anticipated influenza the coming winter, is a most welcome opinion. He further states that the tendency to the dread disease is increased by the scarcity of sugar, for which there seems to be no adequate reason. The average student does not need to be admonished to keep plenty of sweets in the system. He will rather rejoice that his freedom from the influenza may depend upon his love of confectionery. Doctor Bullock's further statement that the production of candy should be curtailed in order that sugar supply could be used for the more important household demands will not give him or her so much pleasure. It may, yet, however, be a patriotic duty to decide between one less lump of sugar in one's coffee, or one more bonbon. THE CAMPUS PROSPERS The student body is defined as never before in terms of automobiles. And the general prosperity is also expressed in the matter of clothes. Those who go back and forth in motor cars are cided for the most part in the latest word in fabrics and styles and colors. And the pedestrians who crowd the walks also express themselves in the shimmer of silks, the delight of fine cloth, and the gourd of hats and scarves, hoops and shoes. Verily the days of butternut and jeans and liness—woosley have long passed by. But the tides of youth are just the same. The fulness of the earth is transmuted now days into all sorts of luxury, which our young people take as a matter of course. Yet the student ideal can be diverted from the necessity for good hard work, and in the lessons which the world war has put before us the schools must teach, as never before, the meaning of success in devoted service. CO-OPERATION A CURE That the consideration the late Andrew Carnegie had for his employees in his steel mills has been appreciated by these working men, is proved in the present steel strike by the fact that the labor problem is notably less serious in the Carnegie mills than any others. This goes to prove that when capital co-operates with labor, the result is more favorable to all parties concerned. The reason that 35,000 employees of the Bethlehem Steel Corporation refused to obey the strike order, may be attributed to the wonderful organization built by Charles M. Schwab, president of the corporation. Mr. Schwab has also been an exponent of the co-operation between labor and canital. When American industry adopts the policy of co-operation between those who control business and those who work to produce the goods, and sets to work to organize trade in this country, the labor question may begin to be settled and the number of strikes decreased. The labor organizations admit and the statistics of the Department of Labor prove that the steel industry today is the best paid of all industries in the United States. Perhaps when all labor gets what it will soon be crying for, a six hour day and a five day week, at the same time expecting good kakes in spite of these holidays, it will be satisfied. A SQUARE DEAL In former days, though perhaps not very recent ones, personal prejudices has occasionally entered into the picking of the first eleven, usually to the detriment of the team. Allowing fraternity considerations on the part of the coach to influence the selection of his men is "old stuff" and the poorest kind of sportsmanship. There is no danger of this sort of thing at K. U. this year and no man need be afraid of not getting a square deal. TYPHOID INSURANCE Everyone knows that even under the best of conditions the danger of contracting typhoid fever is very great. The University Hospital is giving free inoculations against typhoid, and while it is not compulsory to take it, every student should take this precaution. One of the army regulations is that every officer and enlisted man be inoculated against typhoid fever, and if army surgeons see fit to take these precautions, no duty could be plainer to the student here than of using great care to prevent contracting the disease. THE CASE OF EATING Two million dollars will be spent b the students of the University in Law hence this year, half of this amount two million dollars, will be spent o board alone. At present there is a uniform rate of $7.00 per week charged at the boarding clubs. The students at the smaller universities in Kansas are paying from one to two dollars less per week. As a result of the higher cost of living in Lawrence an increasing number of students are taking their first years collegiate work in the smaller schools over the state. Students in these towns down. If the boarding clubs will not voluntarily reduce the price they can be forced to do by the starting of a number of co-op clubs. Several of these clubs are propping in the student district and are able to furnish meals for $8.00 to $5.50 per meal. The students at a reasonable price, not cheap meals at a cheap price. The students get the advantage of the extra profits. As a proof that these clubs are more valuable, the students are larger than the original membership. When it is taken into consideration that a large per cent of the students are self supporting or that many practically self supporting, the importance of lowering the cost of living will be realized.

CHANCE FOR "SOAKS" Mother (at telephone)—"Mercy, John, our daughter has married the chauffeur." FATHER'S HOPE First Artist—"Been doing anytime lately?" Father—"So? Well, maybe now he'll have some object in keeping down the repair bills." —Boston Transcript Second Artist—"Oh! knocked off a couple of girl's head last week and finished off the Mayor of Mudmouth." — "Boshevika!" — "London Opinion. DESPERATE BUSINESS "Judging by the hours he keeps, I thought he was studying to be a night watchman."—London Tit-Bits. "Jack, I wish you'd give that young brother of mine a talking to. It's time he thought of choosing a career." Among the many habits that may be formed while in college there is none better than the library habit. That is the reading of books, periodicals and newspapers. Students have hundreds of interesting books which any student on the Hill will do well to read. Interest in your different studies will be greatly increased if you read even a few articles or through a few books on the subject. THE LIBRARY HABIT Besides the work which you may be having in class room, it is interesting and profitable to read on other subjects that hold an interest for you. For example, books on various industries, on finance, trusts, foreign countries, on religion, government, men, or whatever pleases your fancy at the time. When college days are over we will want to keep right on learning all the time. The only way we will have of doing this will be by our own readings. We will have no instructors to make us do it nor anyone to help us understand, so get the habit now, the library habit. THE BIRTH OF THE COLLAR Somebody has discovered that, in celebrating the many centenaries that fall due this year, it should not be forgotten that 1919 is the centenary of the detachable collar. Hannn Montague, the wife of a blacksmith in Troy, New York, says this student, made the first detachable collar in 1819. Until that year, Mr. Montague, and all other men, had worn hat caps. The students changed all that; and now it is said, some 100,000 yards of goods are used every day for making collars by a single factory in the town where Mrs. Montague surprised her husband with the first separate one. The Rev. Ebenezer Brown, it appears, first put Mrs. Montague's product on sale, and his enterprise was the reason for about seven square blocks of collar within a mile radius. Modesty and unassumingly, Mrs. Montague established an industry—Christian Science Monitor. There are two sides to every question, except: ONE-SIDED QUESTIONS When a young man describes his fiancée; When a young woman gives an impersonal estimate of a woman friend; When a father prescribes conduct for his children; When a mother explains her son's temperament; When a physician advocates his favorite method of treatment; When a churchman discourses on a problem-novel; When a Columbia professor pronounces on anything new; honours on anything new; When a military or naval officer of- fer or enlist in anything fers an opinion on anything; When anyone delivers his opinion of the League of Nations.—Fairmount Sunflower. JUST THE SAME "Do you act toward your wife as did you before you married her?" "Exactly. I remember just how I used to act when I first fell in love with her. I used to lean over the fence in front of her house and gaze at her shadow on the curtain, afraid to go in. And I act just the same way now when I get home late,"—London-Tit-Bits. "You don't want to exchange i merely on that account, do you?" asked the ticket man. "No, but I thought you might be able to supply me with a periscope to see over that big woman sitting in front." -Boston Transit. SUGGESTIVE NUMBER "How do you like these cigars' They are two for a quarter." "Two for a quarter! You paid that or them?" With a stormy look on his face, the master of the house waylaid the servant in the kitchen. THE RETTER ONE "Look here," he began, angrily, "how dare you tell me my wife what time I came home this morning after I told you not to?" The Irish girl eyed him steadily, "Sure an 'Ol didn't,' she repiled calmly, "she asked me what tome yye came in, and Oi only towell her too busy getin' the breakfast ready to look at the clock." —Exchange.
