WEDNESDAY, SEPT. 24, 1919. THOSE UNIVERSITY BLUES Work is piling up. The shine of University life is wearing off in the dust of the second week. The joys of rush week and the exhilaration of a new experience, or the pleasure of renewing old acquaintances—all these are receding into the background and in their place has come the dull prosaic of several weeks of grind, gloomy prophecies of quizzes, and in the distance, perhaps a flunk. Twelve hundred freshmen are learning the difference between the old home town high school and the University. Joe and Susan, who were considered the pick of last year's senior class, have found that their reputation will not help them get a grade in rhetoric. About three thousand other students are learning that conciencious professors who grade according to the student's ability as shown in his class work, are inescapable. "Snap" courses are developing too much snapp for easy sailing. They are experiencing that for every chapter in the text, there are several chapters to be read in the books at the library. The old job you left back home to come to the University seems better than it ever did. You were getting along wonderfully well with the boss and wouldn't it be the wise thing to get the job back before the boss gives it to some one else? Surely, it pays better and is more pleasant than messing around a library crowded with dull books, listening to tireless professors recite statistics on ancient history, or getting out of bed at 4 o'clock to prepare for your 8:30 class. You are blue and it would be so easy to quit and go back home. But stick it out. The professors are human after all; the library is a beautiful building; and the alarm clock has a wonderful tone. Don't be humming those University blues. THE END OF UNREST We have just passed through a period of unrest, caused by the war and now we must settle down to the work of getting organized after two and a half years that came far from being normal. Soon after war was declared, a large number of men withdrew from school to enter the military service. As time went on, the number of men in school gradually decreased and those who remained did not take the interest in their school work that they previously had. No student knew how long it would be until he too was in the service and consequently did not care to work so hard as usual. It is safe to say that the majority of men who withdrew from school to go into the service, men who are at the present time enrolled in this university, never expected to nature to complete their education Now that the war is over these men are getting down to work to fight for what they owe themselves, an education. DO YOU READ THE NEWS? Faculty members of universities everywhere have always complained that students are not familiar with the world events of the day. Few courses make any demand for a familiarity with such events, and except in a few modern history, economies and sociology courses, world news is seldom discussed in class. But a speaking acquaintance with it is necessary for a well-rolled education. Just now the interest of the country is centred on the situation in the steel industry. Recent and coming strikes in other industries involve the same principles of economics and sociology. The work of the peace conference has not yet ended, and other matters of interest are constantly appearing in the daily press. It was for the purpose of assisting the students of the University to obtain a knowledge of the daily news that the Kansan installed the daily wire service of the United Press. This service is now in full operation, and the condensed yet complete reports are being read by most readers. It will not be long until the old assertion of the University student's ignorance will be without ground, at least at the University of Kansas. A QUESTION OF CREDIT The old question of granting credits to men from other colleges who have been in the service will be threured out by the University of Kanaa early this fall. Surely some definite stand must be taken. From the viewpoint of the student who has served his country, who has given his time, that might have been devoted to his studies, it is only natural that some return should be expected. If the University of Kansas can afford to furnish credits to its returning men, it can as safely afford to grant credits to college men from other schools who are not granted proper recognition for their services by their own institutions. The question is now up for consideration and some decision must be given. Let us hope that it will be fair to the men. THE SPIRIT OF THE LAWS School has really started; the laws are again decorating the steps of their palatial home. Through the opening days, during registration and enrollment, Green Hall is practically deserted, but as soon as the regular work begins the disciples of "Uncle Jimmie" assemble and school spirit makes its appearance. One wonders how much will it cover this year. Will they revert to the poor abused Senate, or will they find some other way of entertaining the students of K. U. ? The Old Timer "Where do they get that high school stuff?" asked the Old-timer as his eyes followed a freshman wooing a striped sweater with large letters across it. Three classmates dressed in stripes of the area of striped shirt exposed by the manner in which the yearling's hands were thrust into his pockets. "I wish that young cootie had been here a few years before," remarked the Old-timer to the Cub. "He would have found me waiting for her to arrive and over there," and the Old-timer pointed to the front of the library. "We gathered there and gave all freshmen the once-over and the up-and-down as they came along," he explained. "Any man found guilty of wearing jewelry other than the regulation K. U. kind was stopped and the pin removed from his person. Then one or the other of us tried to throw the pins down to the floor, we could throw it. Then he was told to get out and see if he could garner some honest-to-gosh shirt-destroyers. "I've seen the alphabet removed from many an X. H. S. sweater," he went on, "so sometimes we'd only make them wear the things wrong when we were in the good old days when padding was found elsewhere than in canoes. "Speaking of pins, I believe the Student Council back in 1914 of therebouts passed an ordinance or something against them. But anyway, it's always been an unwritten law to can all that Latin One stuff when they started their first trip to the Fourteenth Street Hill."

The Kenyan Is their anyone who can tell with certainty just when it's canning season for the Laws? With seeming irregularity they appear with their snappy little canes and after a reckless display of cane tactics, the canes for some reason disappear. It perplexes people who are not familiar with traditional, what is it and when is it I am asking this question in all seriousness. A Junior. Editor Daily Kansan: It has been more than five months now since the plan of creating a memorial at the University was suggested. The discussion over what would be a fitting memorial was carried on for some time and then the whole matter was apparently dropped. Whether it is to be a stadium, a community house or some other structure surely the University ought to have an eternal memorial constructed. The reasons for building a memorial certainly haven't been forgotten so soon. C. E. ORELUP, M. D., Eye, ear, nose and throat. Glass work guaranteed. Phone 445. Dick Building—Adv. O. P. H.
