The Daily Kansan aims to picture the undergraduate and graduate students to go further than merely print the news by standing for the truth and being favorites; to be clean; to be cheerful; to be charitable; to have serious problems to wiser heads; in all, to serve to the University.

THE WEATHER
Fair and cooler this evening
WHY NOT A K.U. DIETIAN?
If it is true University students do not eat the right kind of food and that their efficiency could be bettered if they would, why not try out a University Dietitian?
According to Dr. Florence Browr Sherbon, practically all boarding places in Lawrence serve too much food with starch in it, and a too small amount of vegetables and fruits. The plan as outlined by Doctor Sherbon includes the following duties for the dietitian. Make an inspection of all boarding places in the city where students pay board. Report these visits regularly, putting the ones fulfilling all requirements on the "approved" list. At the beginning of each year every student enrolled in the University would be given a list of these boarding houses. He would find on this the places approved, listed under the amount charged for board. No effort would be made to keep students from eating at other places if they so desired. However the publishing of the names should aid materially in getting boarders for the houses complying with the requirements.
The dietitian would go to the boarding house owner with ideas and suggestions. A similar system has been used this year for rooming houses, and rooming house owners as well as student roomers have been very much in favor of the plan.
Why not make use of the system?
The theory looks good, and at least deserves a fair trial.
We all like theory, but have you noticed how the average student starts to draw up in his shell when something practical is mentioned for the subject of his effort.
HAVE YOU NOTICED THIS?
Does the University expect to keep the grass in front of the Chemistry Building in good shape and still allow automobiles to park at any place they may see fit upon it?
for several months it has been the custom of people entering the Chemistry Building, to leave their cars in front. It is said professors do this even more than students. Now that Spring is here and what little grass left is starting to get green, the continued use of this space as a parking place should be stopped.
Perhaps instead of a "Campus Beautiful" league the University should have an "Anti-parking" "Club."
BASEBALL AND YOU
The sharp crack of the bat against the horsehide is again resounding from the diamond on McCook Field, and baseball is making its spring bow to the students on Mount Oread.
Both Varsity and freshmen candidates are out working hard to give K. U. a winning nine this year. The coaches say the team will be a good one and the men are taking the right attitude in helping to put the University on the same plane they had attained before the war.
Baseball is primarily a college game and is not going to die as a major sport in the schools of the country, as some have predicted it will. But every team, to be a winner, must have the support of the student body. No baseball nine can be called a complete success without this support. The men play harder when the stands are occupied. They feel the school is behind them if the men and women on the Hill turn out as they should.
Our first game will be within ten days. "Everybody out," is the shout we need. Show the team the old spirit is coming back.
Even the most ignorant Russian or German peasant probably now believes in the "revolution" of the earth.
Destructive attacks on a League of Nations to prevent future wars, it will be noticed, are made mostly by men who stayed as far away from actual fighting as they possibly could.
It is respectfully brought to the notice of those favoring universal military training that the American soldier who has seen the effects of such training is letting others advocate the plan.
DEPARTMENT OF MUSIC
WILL MOVE
At 1406 Tennessee Street, temporarily hidden in a small dwelling house, where piano, voice, and violin create discords that echo through the thin walls of the rooms is a department of school of the University that is bringing credit upon the institution and the state.
The department of music of the School of Fine Arts, especially since the condemnation of the old North College, has faced trying difficulties. The incongruity of students studying and practicing without a home in the University, with classes in unsatisfactory apartments and away from the campus, is very apparent.
Students of the School of Fine Arts have also added to the fame of the University. When Harold Henry plays in Fraser Hall the night of April 8, K. U. will hear the work of a master of the piano—and a graduate of the University.
The reputation of the school, however, has steadily become greater. Faculty members such as Charles Skilton, Carl Preyer, Arthur Nevin, Dean Butler and others are nationally famous. Their compositions rank with the highest of American composers.
So, after a time of struggle against hardships, the news that the department of music will soon move into the new Administration Building comes as a pleasure. The enrollment this year is the largest in the history of the school. A bright future seems to be ahead of this branch of the University.
Since an aerial flight across the Atlantic within the next few months is almost certain, who is there who hasn't said, "I told you so."
We talk over our problems and affairs with ourselves, and usually with those who know less than we do about them. When next you seem most inclined to seek advice and counsel, why not talk it over with yourself?
Surely you can find no one else more worthy of trust and confidence—no one more interested in your aspirations—no one more bent upon driving you to your finest—than your very self.
TALK IT OVER WITH YOURSELF
We often say that we will "think it over," but we rarely, if ever say, "I'll talk is over with myself!"

As To Your Future
Helen M. Hayes, A.B. c'15 now newspaper reporter in Hutchinson gives the following suggestions to students who are preparing to be reporters;
English, history, sociology American government and all journalistic courses are good as preparations for this work.
The salary of the average reporter is scarcely as good as that of the teacher. Some get $1,200 a year.

A graduate may get into the work by scattering applications broadcast
The salary of reporter is not so good for beginners but there is more opportunity for advancement.
To be successful in reporting a student must have the ability to meet people, have good health, be willing to do hard work and have a certain amount of nerve.
Muriel C. King, A.D.1173, now porter on the Wichita Eagle says:
Some of the courses that will aid a person who is interested along this line are English, history, sociology, law, psychology, elementary law, and psychology.
A graduate may get into the work application or through the department of journalism.
LO! THE POOR PROFESSOR
The poor professor makes his entrance in a doubly significant way at the beginning of each new course. His sanity comes in for discussion, with some and the more flippant tend to discuss the professor's appearance. No one considers the gentleman's salary and therein lies the prosaic rub. Risking damage to the conventional film covering financial affairs, we intend to say a word on the maximum wage of the college instructor and Professor.
The Michigan Daily asserts that during the last 11 years the professor has not received a raise in salary. It goes farther and states that nineteenths of the faculty are compelled to do outside work in order to live. The salary which they do receive is proportionately one-half of the undersized remuneration which came to them ten years ago. And still the species persists. Isn't it wobbleful?
We suggest, in view of all this, that somebody take heart and boost the professor, his salary and his community standing. It is plain that he is "in the service" for the betterment of mankind and not himself. Lo' the poor professor has been serving all these years—Daily Northwestern.
The fact that American professors are not known throughout the world nor are ranked with the leading scholar of the age is the result of poverty. Their grocery bills demand more attention than their research work ever approaches. They are not financially independent as are many of their foreign contemporaries but, even so, they are still not paid so highly.
Do not think of your faults; still less of other's faults; in every person who comes near you, look for what is good and strong; honor them; rejoice in it, and as you can, try to imitate it; and your faults will drop off like dead leaves, when their time comes. —Ruskin, in Ohio State Lantern.
The girls of the University of Ohio will celebrate in June the laying of the corner-stone of the new Woman's Union. As the building will contain a gymnasium, self-serve dining room, offices for various organizations, clubrooms and an assembly room, it will be one of the largest campus buildings, serving a number of purposes. All social gatherings of University women will be held there.

Two failures were sitting on a bench on the Common. "I tell you," said one, "a man must have money to make money."
"That works both ways," said the other sadly, "it's equally true that a man must have money to lose money."
