MEN BACK HONOR SYSTEM
If the honor system is finally installed in the University, it will be the result of a gradual growth of student opinion in its favor. No similar program can be instigated suddenly, but must come naturally. Sentiment for the honor system in class work and examinations will eventually become a part of the average student's moral code. When the majority of the students are convinced that it is the only scheme, the machinery to install it and under which it will operate will be naturally evolved.
Another step in this gradual campaign for the honor system is the mass meeting for all men students which has been called by the president of the Men's Student Council for Tuesday, January 28. The men of the University will be given an opportunity to express their their opinion on the question, and will take their stand, without a doubt, in favor of it. The fact that the women began the campaign does not indicate that they are any more interested in questions involving the honor of the students. At the mass meeting the men of the University will have a chance to refute the assertion made in the women's mass meeting that women are naturally more honest than men.
As in the case of the former meeting, all men who do not come to the meeting will be regarded as uninterested in problems of student honor, or as directly opposing the honor system.
EATS
By what they eat and how they eat it—
The psychology of food is the latest course installed at this our University. Classes meet at 12:30 and 6 o'clock in the cafeteria. All interested observers are eligible, and it's a great course.
It begins at the door. The men, with all indications of carelessness, pass up the menu list. They proceed toward the food itself, but there the carelessness is lost. Instead our young men become suddenly cautious and frugal. They insist on a close-up inspection of each separate viand before they will invest their cherished pennies.
The lady prof trips down the line, with her mind all made up in advance. What she demands is calories, and calories.
A group of cookless Greek maidens enters, and take their seats. Meticulously careful of their table manners, and infinitely fond of pineapple pie a la mode, are these maidens.
They pass out in time to see the gentleman prof and wife and family arrive. To them further calories are sold, and at a most horrific cost. Calories and husky pay checks are conveyed table.ward. And then the voice of Mr. Professor's little Mary rises above the cafeteria noises. "Please, papa," says little Mary, "give me the lettuce leaf from your, salad to take home to my bunny."
It's a great course, this new one.
YOU MAY KNOW HIM
He is an advanced economics student. He loves to work. He can not fill twenty-four hours a day with the lessons assigned by the instructors. Accordingly, he waves his hand wildly in class and demands more work. The professors think that if he can do so much studying, other students are able to do the same proligious amount of work. They assign longer lessons. Any student who takes this method of advertising his superior mentality, or his special fondness for "digging" deserves the extreme penalty for disloyalty to the students. He deserves complete ostracism.
NOT EXACTLY FUNNY
"Some people must be inconceivably small! A pair of woolen mittens were taken from my coat hanging in the cloak room at Spooner Library. And they were tucked securely away, too! I'm afraid to even take off my coat now."
An irate, and justly irate, student has sent this communication to the student paper. It may be a bit amusing at first to every one except the man whose gloves were taken. None of us would appreciate the joke, however, if some of our own belongings had been appropriated. A man's wooled gloves may be a small matter to other persons, but they are rather important to him, and in this instance they were evidently important to another. To have your gloves stolen on a cold day is without any element of humor
The principles underlying the too prevalent tendency for students to take each other's property are certainly not laughable. A man who trades his own hat for a better one is guilty of theft, and nothing less. There is no reason why college men should take others' property any more than the ordinary citizen. Such action is a little too playful, and cannot be excused by the time-worn adage that "boys will be boys."
ARMY CHEVRONS SHOW
SERVICE
"You can't tell the players without a score card," the familiar cry at the baseball parks, might be applied to soldiers returning from France, according to army officers. To aid the public in determining a man's time in prison, the federal number of dead wounded, the following explanation has been prepared:
War Service Chevron—"A "V" shaped bar of gold lace, worn on lower left sleeve of all uniform coats, except fatigue coats, by officers, field clerks and enlisted men who have served six months in the war zone. This service is down. An additional chevron is allowed for each six months' service.
Silver Chevron--For officers, field clerks and enlisted men who served six months outside the theater of operations, a silver chevron (worn the coat) is allowed. For each additional six months another chevron is worn.
Wound Chevron—Also a "V"
shaped bar of gold lace, worn point down, on the right sleeve. Not more than one wound chevron car be worn if two or more wounds are sustained at the same time.
Service Stripes—Enlisted men who served three years will wear service stripes of the corps or department of service. The stripes are worn diagonally on both sleeves of the dress coat below the elbow.
Scarlet Chevron—Soldiers honorably discharged wear a scarlet chevron, point up, on the left sleeve of their uniform. A red ribbon to the, regular service attire.
Sky Blue Chevron—Service of less han six months in the theater of war is adicated by a sky blue cloth worn as he gold war service chevron.
The University of Toronto, Toronto, Canada, has opened a school for the blind to be run in connection with the regular university work.

My dear Roomie:
Write, Cell or Pphone the Kansan
I am a freshman student of the Engineering School, and I should be delighted to be a member of one or more fraternities or societies for social purposes. Will you please advise me how I can make it?
I'm not a fraternity man myself, but there are several hard and fast rules of the game that may help you: First, clean your fingernails and shave as often as is convenient. Thus they will single you out for your personal appearance. Second, appear to ignore the existence of such fraternity men as you may meet. Don't rush them. Third, sometime, when there are several brethern in some order near enough to see, pull out a big roll to pay a bill with. You can work this by using notebook paper for the bills on the inside and have real ones just on the outside. This will make the boys think you have money enough to pay for their new house. If these three suggestions are not enough, write again. Roomie.
Dear Engineer;
-Affectionately your namesake,
Dear Roomie:
Why do the movies always have a good-looking villain? Fanny.
Dear Fanny:
The movies are only true to life.
Villains are always good-looking.
Did you ever know a perfectly beautiful young man who wasn't a friend, or a perfectly nice one who wasn't too homely to look at?
Roomie
Dear Roomie:
Details of the law like that are a little impractical, but it's all in a life time. You will learn so many practical things in that course that it won't matter about this detail. You will learn to do everything red per cent efficient and practical If it were you wouldn't remember all of it. Roomie.
I have two lovely kittens and they remind me so much of my favorite profs. One of them is dreamy and sort of poet-acting. The other is dignified and handsome. Would it be all right for me to name them Willard and Davay? Jane.
For cat's sake, don't. The poor kittens ought not to have to suffer from their resemblance to the gentlemen you mention, and the gentlemen deserve some more fitting honor than I. If you want to do that, show your appreciation start a campaign to change the names of the streets in Lawrence so as to name them after prominent people on the Hill. Roomie.
We learned in law class that nickels are legal tender up to twenty-five cents only. Now never in my life has anyone refused to take as many nickels as he could get from me. What is the use of learning things that aren't any more practical than that? Sore.
Dear Jane:
When you sit in front of a two-year-old who tries to eat your collar all six reels of the picture show what is the diplomat doing to do? Rose.
Change your seat, or else turn cooly around and request the infant's haperone to remove it from the show. There's nothing else to do.

Sermonettes
Think of The Teacher
Written by K. U. Students and Lawrence Pastors
There is a 19th century novel that was popular a good many year ago, "Put Yourself in His Place," and the title alone deserves thought. Everyone is taught the substance of this when in the Primary department of Sunday School and some way readily forget it in later life. It's easy to remember when trying to relieve suffering but there's another occasion when it would be wholesome to call it to mind. Put yourself in the place of the teacher who is trying to teach you something you dislike and want to shirk. That's the one who deserves nity!
How would you feel if you were honestly trying to teach a boy or girl a study which—easy for you—was a bugear to the pupil and the pupil shirked and cried all the way along? Could anything be more discouraging and dishearingening? Put yourself in the situation. Put yourself in a little more honest effort to bring up that detested work which has to be done. Not a Teacher.
