The Daily Kansan aims to picture the undergraduate life of the faculty, then more than merely printing, the news; then more than merely publishing the news. 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, and to satisfy the students of the University.

Maternity Room gave the

Hope springs eternal.
HERE'S HOPING
Students had about given up hope of ever again being given the privilege of taking a shower in the gym under anything but the most trying conditions. Now comes the announcement that at least,—at last—temporary improvements are to be made. Those suffering athletes who heretofore have writtened under the scalding vapor or the ice deluge from the shower above, will grin sarcastically and wait for further developments. Mere promises will not convince them.
Those responsible for the statement that the showers will be repaired are to be congratulated. The freshmen coming to school next year may never be given the thrill that an expectant shower bather in the Gym now experiences.

Classes closed with the blowing of the whistle, yesterday and this morning. Can the good work be kept up?
PERNICIOUS POLITICS
In recent years it has been the practice of student politicians at the University to employ methods common to the "rabbit and goat" factions in Kansas City—during the yearly class election. Whether this policy is pursued because the leaders prefer to revel in these practices or to further their own ends, is immaterial and forebents an epoch in University politics that will be a disgrace to the big school in the years to come.
With an environment conducive to the highest political ideals and most important to the politicians in the making, it behooves the leaders and the student electorate to abandon these means and adopt policies and methods more in keeping with their surroundings and previous training.
Why wouldn't it be worth while for the various clubs to follow the example of the Custer club, and attend the chapel exercises in a body? Once a week would not be too often.
MEET THE "PROF."
Following a custom at Eastern college, a University of Kansas professor and his wife recently started "open house" on certain evenings for all who care to stop in now and ther for a social call.
To many this comes almost as an innovation—a pleasant one. It has long been a question in the minds of many students as to whether or not an informal visit or talk with their instructors outside the class room might not prove of value.
Universities throughout the East have found that this plan has helped toward promoting better feeling between student and instructor. Often
a backward student is able to solve his difficulties by this more intimate acquaintance since he is entirely at ease and feels none of the class-room restraint. Besides strengthening the bond of friendship and understanding, he gradually begins to realize that his "Prof" is not such a demon as he had thought.
The University of Kansas is famed for its democracy. Why not let this spirit develop in all branches of college life—especially when it promotes sociability between instructor and student?
A mid-term quiz was being given. Nothing was heard but the scratch, scratch of pen and pencil, and an ecasional shuffle as a student squared himself to his work.
THE LITTLE THINGS
The door opened, silently. A student, late to class, tiptoed quietly to a vacant chair, sat down as quietly as possible, and started on the first question.
It's the little things that count.
WHO IS LLOYD-GEORGE?
Even in this age of newspapers and disseminated knowledge, folks who are supposed to know better, often don't. The following comes from the Christian Science Monitor:
Students in the highest ranked educational institution of Buffalo, N. Y., were recently studying the war of 1812 between the United Kingdom and the United States. "I will see what they know of the war of 1914," said the teacher. So test questions were put, with answers no more credible to the pupils questioned than other questionnaires have been with college students. And with sponndents. The gem of the answers was this: "Lloyd-George is a German boat which travels between Germany and the United States."
ALL FOOLS' DAY
Again the day draws near when everyone who has a long lingering grouch against his roommate, his professor, his landlady, his world, or his best girl that was, may have common law sanction to throw conventions at the ground to the winds and be as Satanic as incinnation and imagination allow.
Some people are simple enough to believe all this story book fiction about April First. Some insist that the be fooled, "poisson d'avril" is the direct descendent of primitive moras and the cave dwellers proved that innate humor by sending their friends on fool errands on that day. Then there is that current myth of how the new year was changed from April to January, but some of the conservatives refuse to change and insisted on send-new year gifts on the first of April. For such they were termed fools.
But the only logical explanation of All Fools' Day is to be found in a study of college youth psychology. The typical collegian is imbued with an exuberance of spirits that George Fitch calls applied devilty and our blunt Mart Twain feelingly terms human cussedness.

"Big Engineer Dance, Friday,
March 16 Laws and College men atta-
tle"
Editor Daily Kansan:
Thus a number of Engineers have been parading the campus for several days announcing their social function and attempting to rub it in on other students that they are not wanted and will be harshly treated if they do so. It is worth noting that the hard Now of course it is fine for the Engineers to have an occasional social function and everyone realizes that a portion of their threat is meant in fun. Nevertheless some of them are serious and herein lies the rub. Not that any student other than an Engineer is itching to attend the dance, for the latter is never heralded as a social achievement. The whole troubling story should assume someone wanted to come to the party and go out of their way in an attempt to scare off the other fellow.
Not a Law.
Specialization is necessary in education and the separation of schools has its advantages. However do the Engineers really think they are promoting a true school spirit if they would attend their social function? Also, is one of their standards of etiquette?

On a recent track trip Leland Finke ordered a chocolate egg milled milk. "Pardon sir, but Missouri heens don't lace up with eggs!" replied the waitress quickly.
