The Daily Kansan aims to plea for the University of Kansas; to go further than merely printing the book, the University holds; to play no favorites; to be clean; to be cheerful; to be generous; to leave more serious problems to wiser heads; in all, to the students of the University.
TUESDAY, OCTOBER 10, 1916.
A clever man turns great troubles
and little ones into home
at all—Chinese.
POLITICS AND EDUCATION
With the organization of a Hughes Club and a Wilson Club, the possibilities of witnessing a real political campaign at the University of Kansas seems certain. The Hughes Club has elected its officers and has affiliated itself with the National Republican College League. The Wilson Club has just organized and has allied itself with the State Democratic Central Committee.
Whether these organizations have decided to follow the example of Columbia College or not, it would be a good plan to do so. J. Silverman, chairman of the Hughes National League reports the following:
"Several hundred Columbia men have joined the league, the value of which is inestimable as a factor which will superintend the mind of the mass. Columbia is represented in every field. It has given us many campaign speakers, clerks, and watchers at the polls. Other Columbia men have volunteered to lend their automobiles on election day while others are organizing parades and meetings and are speaking with voters."
Is it not a part of our education to take an interest in public affairs? Why not become a member of one of these political organizations?
GUARDING ONE'S HEALTH
Jay E. House in his "On Second Thought" colyume says, "College training is valuable in the respect that it properly fits those who receive it for the task of acquiring an education.'
GUARDING ONE'S HEALTH
At this season of the year when colds and sickness are so prevalent too much care cannot be taken to safeguard one's health. Slight changes in the weather will often cause small ailments which can be thrown off only with considerable difficulty.
Very often colds are contracted early in the fall which not only last throughout the entire winter but they place the victim in a very uncomfortable position to say nothing of the chances he takes at a serious illness. After all most cases of student illness are due to carelessness. Unnecessary exposure, suddenly cooling off after a game of tennis, or going out with insufficient wraps.
Some students, mainly new students have been warned as the care of their health while they were at home but now they must look after their physical well being and should be especially careful because a little carelessness may cost them a semester's schooling.
A GOOD TEAM
Have we a good football team? When we win we think we have; but when we lose, a concourse of faults are discussed, and the ultimatum of our reasoning is a decree that
the team is at fault. It should not be thus. If every man plays for sport and not to win,—if the coaches teach football, and not secret fools intended to escape the eyes of officials—and if the "thundering thousand" cheers every brilliant effort—why, then we have "real team work" and we may say we have a good team.
Our opponents are our guests and not our enemies, for we do not live in an age of collegiate barbarism. If a team meets us on McCook Field and outruns us, outpuncts us, outpasses us, and outpoints us, they prove themselves to be a greater team—a better lubricated machine. BUT, our men played for sport—our coaches taught them that—and our roots were gentlemanly.
It was a splendid game. We have a good team.
Since the Pan-Hellenic Council has ruled that "stadies" are exempted from the no-dates-at-football-games regulation, they are usually be found with more than one.
A PECULIAR SENSATION
Little Harold, having climbed to the pinnacle of the roof of a very steep shed, lost his footing and began to slide with terrifying swiftness toward the point where the roof swept gracefully off into space.
"O Lord, save me!" he prayed. "Lord save me! O Lord!" Never mind. "Lord save me!"
AS IT MIGHT BE
Professor—"You have been a perfect student; your grade is 1."
Chancellor Frank Strong—"We are to have ten new holiday this semester."
Professor—"There will be no monthly or final examinations in my classes"
No one reading the "As It Might Be" column the first time said, "That isn't true," then looked at the heading of the column and felt foolish.
A new ruling of the faculty of the College permits a student to carry as much work at one time as he can satisfactorily manage. The traditional eighteen hours per semester prevented many students from finding enough to do to profitably employ their time.
Lawrence, Oct. 11.—Work has been started on the magnificent student union building for which the last legislature so generously provided. The east wing will be ready for use by the students, and the building will be completed by September 1, 1917. Reading rooms, dancing and games, rest rooms, etc., are expected to exert a strong influence toward keeping the students from airborne loafing on the streets and aversion of questionable character down town.
BLUES
This is a state of indigo with which even a grave senior as well as a giddy freshman may often be obsessed. Its cause—any number of things—a haunting sickness, a sarcastic remark or more disturbing inward doubts as to one's own worth and the general deprivation of mankind. All of these, or any one, may bring on a desperate attack but the interest outside of one's own silly self.
Truly Satan finds mischief for idle thoughts, Keep busy and your mind illied with wholesome ideas and there will be no room for the blues.
Freshie sat and read a book,
Freshie got industrious look,
Freshie writing something fast,
Freshie best in algebra class.
Freshie, Freshie, why so work,
Why a little don't you shirk
Like the grown-up Seniors do?
Cause, Fashion, 'fraid he not' go?
TWICE TOLD—BUT WORTH IT
"Oh, mother, may I go to Europe this year?"
"No, no, my darling daughter,
He—They say his wife treats him like a dog.
Pin your faith on 'America First',
And don't risk submarine alaught
'the knights of old wore armor,
Which was bothersome, perchance
But I'll sleep in them.'
'But the creeuses in their pants.'
—Penn State Froth.
In a sand pit William fell;
Swallowed earth from out the pit;
Father smiles and calmly said,
'Brave boy! Will is full of grit.'
She—Is that so ?
He—Yes, she does nothing but pet him all the time—Punch Bowl.
CAMPUS OPINION
Communications must be stored on evidence of good faith but names will not be published without the writer's consent
Editor of the Daily Kansan;
The excuse the students have for treating the freshmen as they do for not wearing their caps is "to maintain a better spirit among the classes here on the Hill." They toss the student with a date at the football games in order to improve the Thundering Thousand.
SMOKING
The Student Council should make a rule that the student who insists on smoking on the campus should be treated as the freshman or student with a date at the game. It would create a better spirit for the University over the state. The students should follow the lead of the Chancellor rather than wait for the authorities to enforce the rule.
WHO ARE YOU?
Is this your creed?—Purdue Exponent.
Good morning. Or do you speak to those fellows who do not belong to your fraternity or social set or who must be content with what the 'student of life' writing in the Saturday Evening Post, or the best seller, or a writer on a magazine suit? After all, you cannot afford to be too familiar or you will have those bothersome fellows recognizing you when some one condescends to invite you into a touring car. To command respect and self-esteem a fellow must keep himself a little better in or sympathy between est in or sympathy between the ambitions or difficulties of the common run. Besides, you might in that case called upon to give some assistance. Hold yourself in check at all times. Don't let that vulgar, childish desire for fellowship, and interest in other people draw you into the demeanor habit of associating with just anyone.
Anti-Smoke.
There are rolling stones in college just as everywhere else.
A ROLLING STONE'S COURSE
And they accomplish more in one place than in the other.
You know the campus rolling stone type. He dabbles a little in this study and takes a peep at the contents of another. He skims the surface of a dozen subjects, but never gets any deeper into any.
He slides through his college course along the easiest way. At the end he finds, hanging conveniently near, a degree, which he annexes as non-chalantly as he has done everything else. And then he goes out into the world of work, presumably to flit along as amlessly as before. The rolling stone not only gathers on this rock it usually loses, stones, when that happens.
The rolling stone not only gathers no moss, but is usually lower when it stops than when it starts.—Ohio State Lantern.
SCHOOLS ON WHEELS
So many things are on wheels, nowadays, that it is scarcely surprising to learn of a school in California that is held in a box-car. Here children whose fathers comprise a railroad section gang are being taught daily, and the school is proving such a success that the superintendent has asked for an old passenger coach, a two-way bus, and blackboards. Such a car will be easier to heat, and here the school will be continued when cooler weather comes. The story is matched by one from Blackburn - College, Carlinville, Ill., where two Pullman sleeping cars have been transferred to brick foundations, near the college buildings, where they are used as dormitories. Their popularity with the students is increasing. A perfield said of the old barge which Mr. Peggotty turned into a house, "Never having been designed for any such use, it became a perfect abode." Christian Science Monitor.
