FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 21, 1919.
Reason, too late, perhaps, may convince you of the folly of misspending time—George Washington.
FEBRUARY 22
He was democratic, yet firm. A lover of peace, still he was able in command of war forces.
Tomorrow we shall pause a bit to think over the life of George Washington, whose birthday we shall commemorate. We think of him as a parent, guardian of the early days of a nation. We look to him as a leader of our country in its fight for self-government and as first president of the republic.
The most fashionable trimming for the new spring hats right now is half a dozen pompoms' of fresh white snow.
THE BLUE-COVERED BOOK
Professor I. Markham Down does not like the soup which covers the sidewalks. It retards the speed with which he walks to class, so that he loses five minutes of the lecture hour
The student who had made a date with a young woman, not knowing where she lived, was overjoyed Thursday when the student directory appeared and he found her name in it.
The professor tucked one of the blue-backed books under his arm, pleased at the prospect of not having to go to the registrar's office to find the telephone number of a student.
The class for the first time learned the initials of their instructor.
Freshmen and sophomores hunted hurriedly through the book to view the initial appearance of their names in such a publication.
The faculty of Cornell University intends a paternal direction of its fraternities. It has voted to have one of its representatives lodged in each if the sixty fraternity houses at the university.
ADD IT UP
Every once in a while one of the busy little computers of useless, but otherwise true, facts goes to work to estimate how much wasted energy flows over Nigara Falls in each of her days hours. But why pick on Niagara?
There are a lot of other sources of wasted energy, some of them much nearer home. We invite the computers to consider:
Energy wasted by electric current used to illuminate green and red lights in drug store windows.
Energy wasted by women in fashionable tight skirts trying to walk fast.
Energy wasted by men standing on street cormers watching the above.
Energy wasted by people who stand in line two hours before the dinner.
Energy wasted by stenographer chewing gum.
Energy wasted by people who scribble unintelligible marks on the cover of the telephone directory while waiting for a connection.
Energy wasted by pedestrians shouting harsh language in the direction of vanishing taxi-drivers who almost ran over them.
Energy wasted by men trying to drink enough before July 1 to last the month.
Energy wasted by people who use their opera glasses every minute at the winter garden for fear they will miss something.
Energy wasted by making lists like this.—New York American.
SENATE MISTAKES
SEEN THROUGH STUDENT EYES
The following statements have been made by different University students, regarding recent action of the University Senate. The Kanan prints them for what they are worth, in an attempt to give varied student view-point, whether it is reasonable or exacerbated.
Members of the Senate and the Student Interest Committee do not really know what rules have been passed, and what regulations are now in effect. Their statements are widely divergent.
If the $1.50 ruling has been in effect since last May, and if it applies to organization parties, why hasn't it been enforced?
Students should be represented and have votes on the Student Interest Committee, and not merely be called in to express their opinions, and then dismissed.
No small organization can give a party for $1.50 the couple, with music and hall rent at the present prices.
How were fraternities and sororities to know that the $1.50 ruling applied to their parties when George O. Foster, who goes over the accounts of parties, did not know it himself?
Students are awake to the necessity of conservation this year, and regulation of prices would be adequately taken care of by members of the Men's Student Council, W.S.G.A, and the Pan-Hellenic organizations.
The Student Interest Committee diregards the wishes of students concerning the closing hour of dances.
It is impossible for anything but a Varsity dance to be given for $1.50 a couple.
Two years ago the Prom cost $7. This year general prices are much higher. Just how does the Senate expect any party at all for $1.50? Incidentally, the Senate made no objection to the $7 admission fee in 1917.
MADAME FOCH
Madame in Marechale Foch is Commander-in-Chief in her own home. She is a French lady of quiet and calm determination where the order and regularity of her household are concerned. She dislikes being late for luncheon, and she dislikes the Marshal being late for luncheon. Fortunately, the Marshall dislikes it himself. On one occasion, when after the signing of the armistice Foch was engaged in prolonged conversation with allied representatives and the hour for luncheon had gone by, a message came into the conference room to say that Madame la Marechale could wait no longer for lunch. It may have been impatience on the part of Madame in Marechale, or perhaps Foch expected that message, according to a possible little prearranged stratagem between Monsieur and Madame. Needless to say, that in times of great pressure, Madame makes no demur when the rules of her household are just simply ignored.—Christian Science Monitor.
An Irishman was engaged at stonebreaking on the roadside, but not being used to the work, did not make much progress. A friend, who the hammer from him, he broke the chanched to his hand, then tossing a large stone, tried to show him the right way. Taking stone with ease.
"Sure now," said Pat, "and it be easy for you to break the stone after I have been softening it for the last half hour." —Reedy's Mirror.
Readable Verse
WEATHER—MUSIC
While on the roof bold spears of rain,
Strike quick and sharp—quick then-slow.
The wind is purring through the pines,
The shutters chatter low,
The woodbine clinging to the caves
Goes scratching to and fro.
While on the roof holds spears of rain
is ever one of them.
B. B. THOMAS, in *Biston Transcrip*
WOMEN ARE GOING FORWARD At no time in the history of the Kansas State Agricultural college—and the same is doubtless true of other co-educational colleges—have there been so many women in positions of responsibility in the student body as now active, managerial, educational offices in the various student organizations are held by young women.
Other Opinions
The pines are crooning lullabies,
A march the shutters drum.
The woodbine tinkles little tunes
The rain appears to hum;
No instrument the weather plays
Is ever still in the Rivers of
Rhinotranseri
The impetus to this was of course given by the departure of young men for the war and, during the early part of the present college year, by the fact that the students' army training corps occupied pretty well the time of the young men who were in college. It is to be expected, however, now that the young women have filled the various offices successfully, that the longer they serve, the more first choice for the important positions on the campus. A capable woman will stand the same chance as a canvable man.
The effect of all this is bound to reach out into the world outside colleges and universities. In this part of the country it may have a particularly strong influence. Happily promaster than other parts of the country to give women the vote, the middle west has not been so ready to recognize the place of women in professional and business life. There has been a tendency to regard certain lines of work—teaching, nursing, and a few others as "ladylady" and other lines of work as quite unsuited to feminine qualities. A well known employer in a large city in this part of the country said to the writer that he would never employ a woman "in a position in which she had to come in contact with the public." Women who are graduated from college after proving their efficiency as well as their scholarship, will not longer accept such restrictions upon their activities. And their wholesome influence will penetrate the whole field in which they work and live.
The man—or woman—who would restrict women's work or pleasure or opportunity for economic independence is no friend of woman, or, for that matter, of the race. The middle west—the "great valley" as Masters so appropriately named it, will its largeness and its newness, the place where ancient confining cases are broken—Kansas Industrialist.
Teacher: And the father of the prodigal son fell on his neck and broke his bone.
Mental Lapses
"I warn you," he said, "there will be weeping and wailing and gunshing of the teeth."
At this point an old lady in the gallery stood up.
The evangelist was entreating his hearers to flee from the wrath to come.
NO EXCUSE ACCEPTED
A Southern man tells of a conversation he overheard between his cook and a maid, both negroes, with reference to a recent funeral of a member of their race, at which funeral they were a profusion of floral tributes.
Said the cook; "Dat's all very well, Mandy; but when I die I don't want no flowers on my grave. Jes' plant a good old watermelon vine; art 'when she gets ripe, you come dar, ant' don't you eat it, but jus bus' it on der bassoon, do just josee. Old jezebel down through de ground" — Ladies Home Journal.
OLY NATURAL
WHAT SHE WANTED
"Madam," said the evangelist sternly, "will be provided." Honey Home Journal.
"Sir," she interrupted, "I have no teeth."
Pupil: I guess you would ween, too, if you fell on your neck.—Ladies Home Journal.
Teacher: Name the five zones. Pupil: Temperate, intemperate, war, postal, and O-Boys' Magazine.
Sermonettes
Students are prone to judge each other too cruelly and from a view point that is purely superficial. Too many snap judgments are made on the real worth of a person. We give out a final decree after considering only his personal appearance, his social case, and what little we know of his intellectual attainment, by being in the same class.
The fur-collared overcoat covers no more promising citizen than the overcoat which is a leftover from the S. A. T. C. One may safely assert that the brightest men and women in this University are not considered the "keenest," in the common parlance. They are persons who will accomplish something in the world, and whose qualities are admirable. It is safe to say that they do not condemn others as out of the question at one glance. They use judgment, tolerance, and sympathy.
Written by K. U. Students and Lawrence Pastors.
Church Directory
Often one student is ashamed of his earlier opinion of another, when he learns the circumstances of the other. One of these qualities which count and are lasting.
