WEDNESDAY. OCTOBER 25. 1916
THE Y. M. CAMPAIGN
Education, beyond all other devices of human origin, is the great equalizer of the conditions of men—the balance law of the social machinery—Horace Manning.
Tomorrow at noon the Y. M. C. A.
12-hour campaign to raise $2,800 will start.
A committee of 200 students will solicit every man in the University by tomorrow at midnight. Are you planning to do your share?
The Y. M. C. A. is one of the best organizations on the hill and if you haven't derived any benefits from it it is your own fault. Worth while meetings for men each week, the employment bureau, and the gospel teams are some of the things conducted by the association which merits every man's support.
There are many sailors on the ship of humanity, but few helmsmen.
OUT IN THE COLD
The rain drizzled and dipped off of hats and raincoats while students shivered and slipped off of the walk into the mud waiting patiently for street cars at the gymnasium yesterday. The need of a shelter house was never more apparent.
It was necessary for many students to remain crowded into the hallways and entrance to the Administration building, obstructing the progress of others entering and leaving. But no one blamed them.
BETTING AGAINST K. U.
An inexpensive shelter along the tracks would eliminate the crowding at the entrance of the Administration Building and would save many hats, suits, dresses, shoes and tempers from total ruin.
BEETING AGAINST R. C.
With the K. U. team making good progress on the gridiron comes Dame Rumor with the report that a few of the fans are displaying their loyalty to the University and confidence in the team by betting on the Aggies in Saturday's game. We hope that it is only rumor but such things have been done before and it is possible that a few "bum sports" may still be here.
No greater disloyalty could be shown a team than by betting against it, no matter how large the odds are. But the men who are laboring each afternoon down on McCook should find some consolation in knowing that these disloyal ones are very few and that the student body is behind the team, "through thick or thin."
And besides we hate to see any Kansas lose money by betting on a game when the odds stand as they do in Saturday's game. Not considering the matter of loyalty, we should think ordinary judgment would be a better guide than that.
A STARVING PLEA
"Let not the grass grow on the path of friendship."
The call has come to us across the waters for assistance for a starving people. It is a cry of distress, an appeal of a hungry person to one who has plenty. It means that you are
asked to give up one or more movies—that you are to be given an opportunity to share a little of the good that is yours with thousands of starring people. It means that you are to extend your friendship from your own narrow circle to those masses who cannot approach you except through the pleas of their representatives.
If those people were in your midst, or rather if you were in their midst, you would see and understand. Many of us fail to give because we fail to see. What we do not see we seem unable to appreciate.
There are few who would pass a tarving kitten; is it not far more important that we heed the cries of a tarving people?
THE NEW SOUR OWL
The whole University greets with joy the announcement of the Owl Society that the Sour Owl is to be issued in a rejuvenated form this year. Magazines full of spice and life are published by all of the larger universities of the country and it will be a thing of credit to K. U. to have a publication which may be classed with the Cornell Widow, the Princeton Tiger, the Chaparral and others.
Herecifico the Sour Owl has usually had for its purposes the magnifying of trivial happenings around Mount Oread, which has not always reflected the institution in the right light over the state. It has been an example of yellow journalism of the worst sort and did little more than make scandal out of campus occurrences by means of exaggeration.
The University public awaits the first issue of the new Sour Owl with agerness.
THE FASTIDIOUS PARISIANS!
THE FASTIDIOUS PARISIAN!
Women's styles are as interesting as ever this year. This is the 6920th season for them, and they are getting more clever and more unique at every stage in their history. A complete study of them would be a life job. A course in The Progress of Women's Fashions would cover as much ground as the history of common law or the development of social theory, but it would be far more interesting and entertaining.
What great sport it would be to trace the evolution of women's styles from the loose-leaf system invented and patented by Eve to the "wait-for-me-Lizzie" effects of the present age. Probably the most wonderful transition has been that from the hoop skirt to the present keg affair without hoops.
Sometimes the women wear polkadot waists so loud that, when matched with a blue serge suit, the soprano section drowns out all the rest. At other times, salamander-like, they wear everything—shoes, stockings, dresses, hair ribbons—all of the same color.
But this isn't meant as a criticism of the fair sex. Men sometimes wear vivid green or yellow shirts, with socks to match and decorate their shirt-fronts with neckwear that looks like a cross section of a rainbow.

IN COLLEGE AND OUT
For she was only his Sr.
How much does a man's importance in college indicate as to the place he will assume in the world after graduation?
Some say it is an absolutely accurate measure, but now and then one has doubts aroused regarding the truth of this.
The Independent has an account of the college careers of Woodrow Wilson, Princeton '79, and Charles Evan Hughes. Brown '81.
Hughes was an underdeveloped youngster who entered college as a sophomore at the age of 16, acquired the reputation of a grind and took all the scholastic honors to be had. He became a student expected him to settle down into the seclusion of a cobwebby study after graduation.
Today both men are candidates for the presidency. Both have risen to their eminence by the manner in which the term has appealed to the public mind.
More or less of an opposite type was Wilson—player on the baseball team, brilliant student in his own world and a master of scientific science, but not in other lines, managing editor of the Princetonian prominent in student activities. He had much to have expected to find its setting, as it has, in the political world.
With college careers widely different, both men in later life have achieved much the same kind of popularity and prominence.

CAMPUS OPINION
Communications must be stained an evidence of good bish but names will not be published without the writer's consent
COAT-RACKS IN AD AGAIN
Throughout the winter the chairs and tables in the class rooms of the Administration Building serve as coat and hat racks. The student hangs his overcoat on the back of his chair, sits down on it, hangs his hat on his left hand, spills his books and papers on the floor with his right hand, rearranges them to the tune of the music he listens to from his professor, drops his Stetton on the dirty floor, and perhaps takes a few notes in between times.
When he leaves, the overcoat looks as if he had slept in it, his hat as if he had used it for a vacuum cleaner, and his notebook as if he had jotted down a graph of the path of a runaway pig on its pages. On a rainy day the odor from wet garments, and from dirt gargling, and at all times the untidy appearance of the rooms during class is certainly not inspiring.
The cost of a few rows of hooks, out in the halls, if nowhere else, would be little. As to spelling the appearance of the halls, it may be said that students spend more time in the classrooms than necessary for proper places for hats and coats, not only in the Administration Building but elsewhere in the University buildings, has existed for years. Perhaps it is not too much to hope that some time the proper authorities will recognize the need.
A good deal of the power is with those who talk least. Listen to the ebb and flow of conversation round about you and ask yourself what difference it would make if most of it faded away to nothing. From any large gathering talk rises like smoke when there are those who are by no means facile in talk, in which are nevertheless quick and clear eyed and able to perform. Those who talk fast and much are open always to the suspicion that they let it all end then and there. Let no man mourn if he is denied the gift of eloquence. His work of wisdom perhaps outpaces and outdoors the man who speaks from the place that he has made. His life is behind his counsel. His character validates and verifies his opinions—Philadelphia Ledger.
THE POWER OF SILENCE

"Begabos!" said Pat, as he cut the grass in the cemetery, "it isn't every man that has four thousand men under him!"—Lamb.
The play had just been given and the drama in dramatic criticism was picking up.

Being Natural
He's a Poet—But It's Not His Fault
He sits by the hour and racks his brain.
He composes things that are inane,
that are pretentious, that are ill-meaning.

As it is, one of the greatest disappointments of a University career is to be forced to leave after a four years' stay here on the campus, realizing how little you have dipped into the vast store of knowledge and entertainment contained in the thousands of volumes.
You read the work assigned by your instructors, and then it is time to go to class or to lunch or to bed—or some other place not so important.
YOU AND THE LIBRARY
How fine it would be if one could spend as much time as he wished in this room.
The shelves are there awaiting you, but so many other things are calling.
Maybe it is not always a matter of lack of time. Perhaps it is sometimes merely giving the available time to rival matters.

WITH THE POETS
In the spare moments of four years you should be able to make good use f the Library. Why not try figuring your time a little more closely?

DAWN By George B. Logan, Jr.
his radiant sunshine so adorning
this majestic cliff, the brilliant
the ancient day stands every morning
in her face.
This day the new-born world hath
been born.
Within his mantling arm of white,
he wields a sword. To walk among the stars in light.
Risen with laughter unto leaping.
Rilson with laughter unto leaping,
and the old old day comes up from sleep.
The old old day comes up from sleep.
The curtain of the night is patted
in. In spotted garments ways uncharted
In spotted garments ways uncharted
Slow speechless music robed in splen-
der
mg.
Fresh as a flower, for new emprise.
The deep sky sings eternally,
With childlike wonderment to rende
With childlike wonderment to render Its own unweared symphony.
Reborn between the great suns spin-
ning
Forever where men's prayers ascend
And the beginning hath no end.
And the beginning hath no end.

S is for the suppers that I bought her,
U is for the unkind words she spoke,
C is for the candy that I bought her,
K is kale I've spent and now I'm broke,
E is everything I've done to please her,
*n* is auto rides that we have seen;
Put them all together they spell "sucker."
A kind of fish I've always been.
