The Daily Kansan aims to picture the undergraduate life of a young man further than merely printing the news standing for the students' play favorites; to be clean; to be cheerful; to be charitable; to have more serious problems to wiser heads; in all, to satisfy the students of the University.
NOW TO WORK
FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 15, 1916.
Socrates was a wise man. None of us can expect to be as wise as Socrates—but now that classes have started we can, at least, imitate him and try to learn something new every day.
"GROW OLD ALONG WITH ME"
Yesterday and today, we got our first assignments. Monday, class work begins in earnest. University work will be old to some of us; to some it may be new; anyway—dig in—get to work—go to it!
It is a pleasing coincidence that the University of Kansas should have passed the three thousand enrollment mark at the beginning of its second half-century. It is pleasing because it is significant—prophetic even. The mere thought of the things that are going to happen on Mount Oread by the end of another fifty years contains a thrill for all who love the place. Oh for a seer who could foretell it truly, with a free, and at the same time just, vision!
In the meantime, there is a lighter side to the prophetic fancy. May we all be spared—the insurance mortality tables to the contrary notwithstanding—for that Centennial Celebration of K. U. May the girls who adorn the old Hill in that day be even prettier to our aged eyes than are those who make our campus walks worth the walking in this generation!
How long will stretch the gowned procession of our grandchildren on that Commencement Day? Will they search the yellow files of the Kansan for some glimpse of us?—Of those among us who now have to struggle to perpetrate a mere moustache, how many will in that day be sporting ample whiskers, white and venerable, and cut in what strange style? Will the age put up with a patriarchal flow of white, or will it demand them braided?
Will the young men of the Centenial year have proved their logical faculty by developing from the form fitting coats and short, tight trouser legs of today a style that will make knee trousers and corsets the only

thing capable of satisfying their aesthetic sense?
And will they still be steering the girls about the campus by the elbow or will they have returned to the courtly custom by which a woman took a man's arm? And if they do, will we cry, "Oh for the courtly custom of our youth?" Our grandads say it; why shouldn't we when we are cran dads?
Will strangers be able to get off the train at Lawrence without being told, "You know this is the place where Quantrell held his famous raid!"—if so, who will start the innovation?
Will some of the buildings be mercifully covered with ivy? Will the architects be pointing to the Fraser porch as a fine old specimen of late 19th Century Potpourri? Will the Legislature have voted to finish the Administration Building?
Will there be a landing place for aeroplanes near McCook Field, and will the authorities of Lawrence permit children to sail the air in sixty horse power machines as they are now permitted to sail the streets of Lawrence in sixty horse power devil wagons?
For all we know there may be some money by that time to buy books for the library. Maybe there will be a golf course near enough for everyone to get to it; or maybe that won't matter—since we'll have every man his Ford. For of course we'll all be ich!
But these are the uncertain mound-erings of prophecy. Of one thing only can we prophecy with sure truth. We shall be old—fifty years older; but K. U. will be fifty years younger—younger by a half century more of the generations of youth from which she draws her strength.
