U. 25. The Daily Kansan aims to picture the undergraduate life of the faculty and more than merely printing the books, but rather using the University holds; to play no favorites; to be clean; to be cheerful; to be more auspicious; to leave more serious problems to wiser heads, in all, to help students identify the students of the University. FRIDAY, APRIL 7, 1916 THE PARTITION OF THE INHER- A Father had two Sons. He said to them: "When I die, divide every one." When the Father died, the Sons could not divide without quarrelling. They went to a Neighbour to have said to them what they had asked them how their Father had answered and how his Father said. "He ordered us to divide everything into two equal parts." "If so, tear all your garments into two halves, break your dishes into two halves, and cut all your cattle into halves." The Brothers obeyed their Neigh- The Brothers obeyed their Neighbour and lost everything. "SPRUCE UP?" "The Campus Beautiful" has received a great deal of favorable comment of late. Comment is cheaply and easily given; it takes real work to make any lawn, any country home, any country estate, really beautiful. It is then work to keep it so. Mr. Oread is acknowledged as being as beautiful a spot, with its historic buildings, as any campus in the Middle West. Visitors are always impressed by the beauty of the Wakaraus valley, by the wonderful sunsets so often seen, by the distant view of the lazy Kaw as it winds its way out of sight to the North and East. But when they leave the natura views and look over the more matter of fact aspects of the campus, they are not so visibly impressed. There are cow paths made by thoughtless students who are too full of culture to keep to the walks, there are piles of boxes and litter behind the various buildings, there are few shrubs, there are fewer flowers. The buildings, some of which are old and rather dilapidated in appearance, are not covered, as they should be, by the clinging ivy. Many things might be done, if a little thought were only given to the matter. The over-industrious dandelion that persists in poking its yellow head through the campus lawn might be challenged as to its right to exist on Mt. Oread. The weed could be eradicated with the combined efforts of all the University on a particular day set apart to "clean-up" the campus. Let us, by a combined effort, leave the University in June, in the most attractive dress it has ever worn. THE LITTLE THINGS When President Wilson speaks of Senator Charles Smith of Kansas, he says "Senator Curtis," not "Curtis," even though they are on familiar terms. When a student speaks of a professor, even though he knows him ever so little, he usually says "Smith" instead of "Professor Smith." Those high in official circles use proper titles in speaking of men. It's the little things that count. THE OLD ORDER CHANGETH THE OLD ORDER CHANGETH In the "good old days" we often hear the graduates tell how each school's hand was raised against the other. They were mortal enemies. They carried balls around on their shoulders, hoping someone would "start something" so they might retaliate. But "the old order changeth" and when the molasses-covered floor in the gymnasium was discovered just before the Engineers were to dance, no violent threats were heard. The followers of Dean Walker repaired the damage done, and went on quietly with their dance. Now a still hunt has been instituted for the maurauders. Although some have insisted the deed should be laid to the Laws, yet when their banquet was held, no retaliation was attempted. The self restraint shown hardly smacks of the high school days, when one class "layed" for another and insisted on "getting even" for a suspected wrong. BROADEN YOURSELF This is an age of specialization, but aren't we apt to overdo it? The engineer delves into his problems of mathematics, the astronomer carefully studies Bode's law, the Botanist peruses the latest treatise on respiration of plant life, but do they round out their lives with some knowledge of the outside world? Does the student of engineering, of astronomy, of botany, or of any of the other studies followed at the University read outside his own field? If he is to be an intelligent factor in the life of his community, he must prepare himself to that end. And such preparation does not mean too great a degree of specialization. Living a top-sided and overdeveloped existence will not round out one's life as it should be. The men in the world who are make well versed in several branches of human knowledge other than those in which they are primarily interested. Jayhawk Squawks The real trouble comes when a man's fancy doesn't turn "flighty." By blaming it on spring, the average girl will array herself in a combination of colors that would make the rainbow feel like a gray goose in a fog. A popular magazine advertises that it has the "funniest page in America." But Alec Sommers insists that the first prize goes to the chapern collyme of a neighboring metropolitan disturber. The giraffe ought to be educated for he comes of a family of "High Browse." One thing that's puzzling us is these stairs pretty girlts. Where do they stay durably? "Iland歌 Pgi P! Phi" Girls alr Tailed!"— headline, Aw, Allean qelt We note that a gentleman named Kuhl works at a drug store. Presumably he presides over the fountain. As a rule, the greater number of friends a girl has, the more change of dress she can sport. Sir Walter Scott was born at Edinburg in 1771. He first began his writing by translating Burger and Goethe, but he left his work to take up the job of a schoolmaster. In 1814 he published the first of his well-known "Waverly" novels. In spite of ill health he wrote incessantly in order to meet his bills, and gave to the world the novels and poems with all are so familiar. He died in '832. Breathless there a man with soul so dead "This is my land, my native land!" "This is my land, my native land!" PATRIOTISM POET'S CORNER As home is in his footsteps he hath turned from wandering on a path, through strife. 1876 For him no minestrel captures awel; Boundless the wealth as well can Boundless the wealth as well can Dr. Mary Merritt Crawford, a Cornell graduate has just returned to America from work in the French hospitals. She paints graphic pictures of the war; pictures from a femininely sympathetic point of view, horrible though they may be. The New York Tribute tells of a peculiar devotion between two inmates of her ward, one an Irishman, the other an Arab, as follows: A WAR FRIENDSHIP Despite these titles, power, anpu pus- rue, and the name of his house, Living, shall forfeit fair renown, and the property of his wife. To the vile duat whence he spreng- unpte, unphephed, and taunt him. Wu watt. Little Slugi, an Arab boy of eighteen, who had part of his hand shot away, ran across Pat one day and fell desperately in love with him. There is no other way to describe his devotion. He followed him everywhere, and soon slugs slapped sions from him, would kiss him night and morning, and when Pat went out Slugi would sit the picture of woe at a window watching for Pat's return, haunted by the fear that Pat was leaving for England and hadn't told him. Pat would say to me: "Indade, I can't believe you if I could take him with me." I'd kape him all my life." But, of course, it was impossible. Their parting was tragic. Pat was taken away a week before Christmas. Slugi was a wreck. He transferred a small part of his devotion to me, because I gave him a copy of this picture. While I was ill little Slugi was sent away too. He has probably gone back to Algeria, for he is useless as a fighter. He has Pat's home address and all will need send him letters for a while. I told Pat one day to appreciate Slugi's devotion because he never get such love and lovely again, or at least never get any more. | | Midway | Stole | Oread | Dunakin | Garret | Stevenson | | :--- | :--- | :--- | :--- | :--- | :--- | :--- | | Midway | READ | April 8 HW 10 | April 15 HW 10 | April 29 HW 8 | May 6 N7 8 | May 13 HW 10 | | Stole | April 8 HW 10 | BASEBALL | May 13 HW 2 | May 6 HW 8 | April 15 HE 2 | April 20 HW 10 | | Oread | April 15 HW 10 | May 13 HW 2 | NEW8 | April 8 HW 4 | April 29 HW 1.30 | May 6 HW 10 | | Dunakin | April 29 HW 8 | May 6 HW 8 | April 8 HW 4 | IN THE | May 13 HW 4 | April 15 HW 2 | | Garret | May 6 N7 8 | April 15 HE 2 | April 29 HW 1.30 | May 13 HW 4 | DAILY | April 8 HE 4 | | Stevenson | May 13 HW 10 | April 29 HW 10 | May 6 HW 10 | April 15 HW 2 | April 8 HE 4 | KANSAN | | | Walling | Star | Nemo | Draper | Grady | Heflebower | | :--- | :--- | :--- | :--- | :--- | :--- | :--- | | Wailing | DAILY | April 8 HE 10 | April 15 HE 10 | April 29 HE 1:30 | May 13 HE 4 | May 6 N7 10 | | Star | April 8 HE 10 | KANSAN | May 13 HE 2 | May 6 HE 8 | April 29 HE 10 | April 15 HE 4 | | Nemo | April 15 HE 10 | May 13 HE 2 | PRINTS | April 8 HE 2 | May 6 HE 10 | April 29 HE 8 | | Draper | April 29 HE 1:30 | May 6 HE 8 | April 8 HE 2 | 'ALL' | April 15 HW 4 | May 13 HE 10 | | Grady | May 13 HE 4 | April 29 HE 10 | May 6 HE 10 | April 15 HW 4 | SPORT | April 8 HW 2 | | Heflebower | May 6 N7 10 | April 15 HE 4 | April 29 HE 10 | May 13 HE 10 | April 8 HW 2 | NEWS | I gave Slugi chiroform one night when he had to have another finger taken off. He had cried so for Pat as he went under that I sent an ornament to him. As he came out of the chloroform big head bed, holding Slugi's head in his arms, tears running down his cheeks, and Slugi would pull his head down and kiss him and say; "Good Pat, good comrade: I spik English, one two three, four. How do you do? Thanks four, once. How pat, no go; stay with Sluigi," etc. It hurts him and pet and big Pat would soothe him and pet and comfort him.
