WHY NOT HAVE THEM?
The University of Kansas is neglecting a possibility for educational and social development by not holding regular convocations?
Class studies are important as educative agencies, but they are not a whole education in themselves. Dances and motion picture shows are not sufficient to insure well-rounded social development. Such activities cannot give new students a notion of the University as a unit.
All-University convocations bring the majority of the students and faculty together, a thing unknown to freshmen this year. Student life is invigorated by the cheering and talks. The speeches are a source of education and instruction as well as regular convocations.
Student opinion is strong in favor of renewing the practice of regular convocations. The University has been willing to have meetings when big speakers come, as in the case of Major-General Wood's visit, but has not seen fit to hold such meetings regularly.
Speakers would not need to be from outside the University of Kansas. We have men and women who have been engaged actively in war work or widely important research and work, and who have interesting things to tell that would be enjoyable and advantageous to students. Whenever convenient an outside speaker could take the place of such persons as convoitation speakers.
The plan formerly used by the University in holding convocations during class hours in the morning is the most practical, as more students and faculty members can attend at that time. The morning class hours could be shortened to leave time for the meeting.
Regular convoctions at, say, ten or ten-thirty o'clock in the morning would be beneficial, both to individual students and to the University as a unified organization. In view of these benefits, why don't we have them?
THE SPORTING FEW
It has accidently been learned that there is a committee of women in each class whose duty it is to promote the interest of the class women in athletics.
To repeat, this knowledge has become prevalent quite by accident and not through any impression made by unusual demonstrations of the University women expressing their enthusiasm in support of the athletic activities which are carried on by a select and small group. It is certainly not through lack of opportunity or evident necessity that these athletic committees have failed in performance of their duties.
There are a few women in the University who are interested in sports and they go out for basketball, swimming, and the other games which the department of physical education is promoting. They practice faithfully and spend their time and energy in preparing for the different contests and when the anticipated time arrives, they play, or they contest, and that is all.
From the viewpoint of the players, the game is no different from the practices as far as the spectators, the support from their fellow classmen, or the enthusiasm shown is concerned. Of course the game is lost or won, and the record goes down but there could be much more than that.
There could be a big crowd on the side lines, divided into groups representing the different classes, each with their own cheerleader and their own yells. There could be class spirit, "pep" and good fellowship. To promote these things should be the active function of the Women's Athletic committees.
An article in a magazine recently was called "How to Make Money" by Owen Moore. "It can't be done," remarks the senior, "for I've tried it for years."
Few people can handle a hot dish and at the same time say there is no place like home.
HIGHBROWISH EYEBROWS
It used to be the style to wear your eyebrows the way nature painted them on your face. Our grandmothers, yes, even our big sisters did. It never even occurred to them that they could do otherwise. But the modern sister found a way, and fashions in eyebrows changed.
The natural arch, wide and graceful, is out of vogue. Graceful, almost invisible, lines arch the eyes now. Thin, timid-looking eyebrows peep out from under the abbreviated bangs which keep them company in the fashion sheet. Strictly speaking, eyebrows have gone out—or come out.
Even among the men some of the highbrows are said to have adopted the new style of eyebrows.
The student who has been to war and back again and is wearing a timepiece on his wrist has taken heart since he saw William Faversham consult such a watch.
"Kaiser's son seek divorce from the Grand Duchess Cacile of Meckenburg" is the latest report in the papers. Must be that Frederick William wants to be through with war for good.
Campus Opinion
The plan of the teachers in the Home Economics department is that they have a special building for their work. This request is just and ad-hoc, and it doesn't take in trying to make the course here of practical value should be rewarded.
This Column is Open to all Students of the University
To The Daily Kansan:
Not only should the University of Kansas have a separate building for such a course but it should be one that the women could call their own. Surely, such a building would be a home to the women students of the University.
Dean Blackmar, continually advises that the women enter courses that will be of practical value to them after leaving college. I notice that the women enter courses in home architecture; home decoration; and domestic science.
If women students are to be encouraged to enter these departments why could not the courses be placed among the groups required for a degree? A great impetus would be given to that department if the subjects were so arranged. E. D.
into one type or groups of types.
It has been said that fraternities are destroying the individuality of college students and forming them
FRATERNITY TYPES
To the Daily Kansan:
With this I am inclined to agree when we see the peculiarities adopted by fraternities, men's or women's, and followed by all members of the chapter. I have no grudge against such organizations and see many advantages in them, but the destruction of individuality that comes from imitating fellow members and doing exactly as they do is a serious defect.
It is puerile and objectives to practice such mimicry. Reduction to set type is directly opposed to the production of self-liinking and anatomy, 1920.

This is one important reason most students achieve only a small amount of success in their work. They do not need to succeed in a happy-go-lucky way.
Mr. H. Addington Bruce says, "The man who would get along must single out his specialty and into that must pour the whole stream of his activity—all the energies of his hand, eye, tongue, heart and brain."
Longinus once remarked, "In great attempts it is eligious even to fail."
attemps it is glorious even to fail"
In an essay T. T. Munger wrote,
Providence has nothing good or nigh
in store for one who does not reso
at something high or good.
A purpose in the eternal condition of
success."
Let us as University men and women make our aims and ambitions noble and grand as we are capable of making them.
