The Daily Kansan aims to picture the university of the state of Kansas, to teach it rather than merely printing the news supporting for the ideal school; to greatly favor its favors; to be clean; to be cheerful; to be charitable; to be involved in many serious problems to wiser heads; in all, to serve to the students of the University.

FAMOUS GRADUATE WILL SPEAK
The University of Kansas will have an opportunity to hear one of its own graduates who has attained fame, when Prof. William Herbert Carruth makes his address to the Phi Beta Kappas at the Commencement exercises in June.
The success that Professor Carruth has attained was reached through his own efforts. Throughout his college career, he was working under the handicap of supporting himself. This he did, but through all his struggles he never once lost sight of the goal that he had set out to achieve.
Professor Carruth was graduated from the University in 1880, ten years before the Phi Beta Kappa was established at this institution. When the chapter was installed here, the registrar's books were searched for all the names of the students who had been graduated from the University and who were eligible to membership. Among those were Professor Carruth. At that time he was teaching in the department of German at the University.
After staying many years as the head of the department of German here, he went to Leland Stanford University in 1913, and as head of the department of English and Comparative literature.
Besides being one of the noted educators of the day, Professor Carruth has become well known through his poetry. No other Kansas poem is read so widely or has been translated into as many languages as Professor Carruth's "Each In His Own Tongue," which he wrote while at the University of Kansas.
The University of Kansas hated to lose him when he decided to go to Leeland Stanford, but the University of Kansas is glad that it will be given the opportunity of hearing Professor Carruth at commencement this year.
When a man smokes a cigarette on the campus he dishebows four laws: the law of the state, of the University, of refinement and of health.
If Wilson's League of Nations is a success he will be the greatest president we ever had, if it is not a success he will be the greatest failure the world has ever known.
HAVE THE BOYS CHANGED?
Rumors and then more rumors have been liberated regarding some great change supposed to have come over the soldiers returned from their job in France. Everyone has heard some of them. One man wanted to start a new
religion, another planned on revolutionizing business by writing a book called "Military System," still another developed political ambitions and expected to run for mayor of his old town at the next election.
But what about these alleged rumors? What have you experienced of the sort when talking to any number of the returned men? Perhaps it is true that such stories have a real foundation, but would we not expect a flood of such tales to float back, just as have many on other subjects? From so large a body of men as we are talking about, the inquisitive statistician might easily obtain material to fulfill almost any prediction.
It seems reasonable that the only way to really settle the matter for oneself is by introspection regarding the officers and enlisted men with whom you have personally conversed. It is probable your resulting decision will disaffirm all radical universal changes you have heard. The men who are back appear and act just as they did before leaving. They may have a tired, worried look in some cases, and they will of course have new experiences to tell, but on the whole these men are of the same whole-hearted type that left this country from six months to two years ago.
With the approach of summer silk waists are going out of style and wool sweaters are coming into vogue.
According to the headlines in the papers every division that has returned from France was undoubtedly the best.
It is reported that sorority women are doing more arguing over how they are going to divide the 825 prize than they are selling Electra tickets.
Athletes are born, not made, reads a headline. So are most other people.
THE GERMAN BLUFF
Since the plans for a treaty have been placed in the hands of the German peace delegation, we cannot help but be impressed by the bluffing that has been so characteristic of the Germans throughout the war. Assuming a half defiant attitude, they endeavor to shift the responsibility of the war, and stoutly maintain that they cannot and will not sign a treaty that would force them to admit to the world their part in the devastation and ravages that have taken place.
With all the diplomatic ingenuity of which they are capable, they present schemes to work upon the sympathy of the people, and pitfalls whereby they might secure an advantage over the allies. They threaten to turn their government over to bolshevism and anarchy, if they are not given what they want. Even the German people are holding large demonstrations to protest against the terms, and are insistent in the demand that their delegates must never sign the treaty as it now stands. However, we are certain that at the end of their allotted time they will sign on the dotted line.
Determine your luxuries by referring to the political economist who says "Luxuries are things which minister to such undesirable wants as love of display, vanity, or selfish desire.
The grafter, when asked how much he gave to the last Red Cross drive, remarked, "I refused to give anything because the collector wouldn't split fifty-fifty with me."
K. U. has a plan of watchful waiting on the memorial. If we wait long enough we can build one to commemorate two wars.

Campus Opinion
The 10 o'clock date rule is the best thing that could be adopted to improve our calendar.
Editor Daily Kansan:-
Many schools of the middle west have tried this system and in most cases it has proven a success. This program, however, requires qualified by a scholarship requirement.
At present practically all dates are concentrated on the week end. Students are up late both Friday and Saturday nights.
Practically every minister of the town will admit that one important reason why the students don't attend church better is because they are worn out from the late hours of the two nights before.
The man who really wants to have the dates is either going to have them n the aftermon or is going to break the rule as is the case many times.
To many people there is nothing more disgusting than to see men and women lounging around in porch swings and on the campus of a week day afternoon when they might be the ones their time at a much better advantage.
There is no getting around it, night is the time for dates, so why not let the man spend two hours with his girlfriend evening rather than in the afternoon.
Send The Daily Kansan Home.
With the abolishment of the week end date rule the life of the student would be more regular and more benevolent, more courteous, educational and health view point.
Basil Church.
