The Daily Kansan aims to picture the undergraduate students to go further than merely printing the new course; it also holds the University holds; to play no favorites; to be clean; to be cheerful; to teach the university more amorous; to leave more serious problems to wiser heads, in all, to encourage the students of the University. TUESDAY, MARCH 28, 1916 Pudd'nhead Wilson's Calendar Even popularity can be overdone. In Rome, along at first, you are fun to be by and Michelangelo did, but by and by you only regret that you didn't see him do it. AND THEY CAME BACK The K. U. relay team is vindicated! The whole world knew it could be done; and now the proof of the pudding has been in the eating. All Kansas is proud of the men who "eame back" against the team who won against them so handily in the Kansas-Missouri dual track meet at Kansas City a week ago last Friday night. The K. U. spirit, which has so many times kept Kansas in the running, was again displayed when the relay team sprung the surprise of the evening, and came off victors in the relay with Missouri University team, at the M. A. A. indoor carnival held at St. Louis Saturday night. It's the good old Kansas way. BUSINESS TOMORROW "A college education is a pleasant thing to have, and if one is young enough and has time enough and money enough, a very desirable thing. I rather doubt if the average college course in the liberal arts is entitled to all the credit it sometimes receives," says Mr. Elbert H. Gary in an article on "Business Tomorrow" in the current issue of The Independent. Mr. Gary goes on to say that the technical education obtained in the scientific departments of many of our larger universities is more saleable, and therefore more advisable. Further in his article is the statement that the ideal business man of the future, among other qualifications, "will have the soldierly virtues of order and system, and a habit of prompt obedience to discipline." Although this is an age of specialization, does the business man of tomorrow really want to branch off into vocational training as soon as he has been taught the rudiments, the three R's? Can the man with no broad basic foundation of liberal arts, really advance as far, and with the same ease and rapidity as the man with the training given him by a college course? Mr. Gary, speaking for the man going into a corporation like the United States steel industries, might possibly be correct in his views. The average business man of tomorrow though, is not training himself for the steel corporation. And where can "the soldiery virtues of order and discipline" which Mr. Gary feels the ideal business man of tomorrow should have, where can they be better obtained than in the study of a foreign language, a five hour course in chemistry, or religious application to the theory of philosophy. The man with a broad education in the liberal arts, will be better able to apply himself to business than will the narrowly trained technical specialist. From the standpoint of an employer, as Mr. Gary is, it will undoubtedly be better that a man know but one thing and know that well. So, too, in slavery, it was better for the owner that the slaves knew nothing other than how to plow or pick cotton. So too, in Russia it is better for the autocracy that the peasants know nothing other than that taxes must be paid and battles fought. But for the man—for the employee he needs a broad basic education in the liberal arts. Then let him follow his natural bent in vocational training. THE LITTLE THINGS She had been the belle of her home town, she is now "some queen" on the Hill. He was also from her home town, but he was no "society man." She was the center of a laughing, chattering bevy of girls on their way down town. He passed them, coming from town. She gave him a cheery "Hello John" as he went by. He doffed his can. A LATIN NOVEL! It's the little things that count. Studying Latin? Ever studied it? Then you have the signal opportunity of reading a real detective story fashioned after the declensions and conjugations. E. Parmalee Prentice has just completed his translation of "The Mystery of The Boule" by Burton E. Stevenson, the new volume bearing the title "Mysterium Areae Boule." As might be expected in a modern novel of the detective type, coquelialisms are frequent and it is in their translation that Prentice has shown his linguistic dexterity. "You blithering idiot," is translated "bipedaum stultissime," while "it's alright" is shortened to "nihil mali." Few will recognize a familiar explosive in "quid malum." "It's too much for me" is given a slightly different shade of meaning in the Latin under the guise of "vires meatus omnino excedit." Although there are occasional departures from the text in translating the book seems to have retained the atmosphere despite the new dress and no doubt will prove helpful in polishing one's rusty Latin. Jayhawk Squawks Killing is too good for Villa. If we catch him, let's put him to work on a prison job. It is now time for the annual spring argument; father stoutly maintaining a can of paint will make the old watercolors shatter. He makes a new one with twelve cylinders. Dr. Wrue's case emphasizes the issues that, whatever the weather, rotating leaves can do a diary. Upon hearing a tremendous commotion in the barnyard Sunday, Alec Sommers started to investigate. He found his son's head in the corner of bens, running first one and then another around an enclosed circle. To Alec's amazed inquiries, the young Wallingford replied: 'Can't you see, father, I'm about to make a fortune. I'm trying to teach these blooming hens to relay!' A M. U. boy had to go home last week to visit his wife when, after nearly a year, his marriage was announced. Something's always happening to keep a fellow from his studies. GOEN READS THE SPORT PAGE One woman may say another disillusion her, but secretly she believes it. Lord Whatts Talker, the gentleman barber, says that birds are malicious beings. He claims they go to bed at night and get up of getting up at daylight and singing. "Mike Aid Scientists," news headline. We are not surprised. Rats have been doing that for women for some years. With the advent of these laboratory lecture and pedestrian courses, there will soon be a call for the o. f. person who studies. The man who spends all his time telling you of his feminine conquests usually hasn't any other kind of which to speak. No matter how good a piano they are, you will never old girl who will convince you it is taut. -G. S. (A man left the federal penitentiary at Leavenworth, Kan., recently with a good record. After he had been gone a short while a book, which had been sent to him by his mother was found. On the back page the following poem, the author of which is unknown, had been copied.) TO MY SON I know that your soul is of my a part, that you love the be fiber and core of my heart. None of my pain me as you, dear; can do; none please me or praise me as you. Remember the world will be quick with its blame, if shadow or stain ever darken your eyes like mother, the son, is the saying so. The world will judge larger of mother to you. Be this world, your task, if task it shall be. To force this proud world to domorge to me. Be this will say, when its verdict you’ve won, ‘She sheds as she sowed: lo! this man is Mother. NEEDN'T HAVE HINDERED CUPID On what day does one become of age? This question was suggested by a story in the Missourian last week, which told how a couple had to wait twenty-four hours for a marriage ceremony on the same day before the prospective bride's eighteenth birthday anniversary. "The reason," said Professor Hudson, "is that it is not convenient to count the fraction of a day as would be needed to satisfy our needs were determined by the exact time the person was born. On the day before one's birth, one has completed an even number of years of life, and it seems necessary to present spectators on that day." -Columbia Spectator. Of course no one ones of having a birthday celebration on any day except the anniversary, but according to Manley O. Hudson, professor of law in the university, a person's age changes legally the first instant of the day before the anniversary of his birth. WHO AM I? I am more powerful than the combined armies of the world. I have destroyed more men than all the wars of the world. the wars of the world. I am more deadly than bullets, and I have wrecked more homes than the mightiest siegeguns. I steal, in the United States, alone, over $300,000 each year. I loom up in such proportions that I cast my shadows over every field of labor from the turning of the grind to the moving of every railroad train. I massacre thousands upon thousands of ware earners in a year. YOU CAN buy a lot in "Bowersock Place" subdivision on your own terms. M. J. Wells, agent. 704 Mass. Bell 396. 122-3* I lurk in unseen places, and do most of my work silently. You are warned I am relentless. I am everywhere, in the home, on the streets, in the factory, at railroad crossings, and on the seas. I bring sickness, degradation and death, and yet few seek to avoid me. I destroy, crush or main; give nothing, but take all. I am your worst enemy. I AM CARELESSNESS.—Ex. FOUND IN A BOOK A Corner for the Library Browser Local solitude, to say the truth, rather gives me more room and sets me more at large; I more readily throw myself upon the affairs of state and the world, when I am alone; at the Louvre and in the bustle of the crowd, I fold myself within my own skin; the crowd thrusts me back upon myself; and I never entertain myself so easily. I am not so especially, as in places of respect and ceremonious prudence; our follies do not make me laugh, but our wisdom does—Michel de Montaigne. Send the Daily Kansan home to the fellks.

PECKHAM'S New Regal oxfords just in, for "Dress-up Week" Anton Stepanovich Arensky is a brilliant example of the modern school of Russian composers. In music as in the other arts a revolution is going on. The young composers of the modern school do not repudiate Beethoven, Bach, Mozart, and the other old masters. They simply say, "We cannot write what has already been written. The artist above all things must say that have not yet been said, must think things that have not yet been thought. The artist must be an innovation, a creation of art and art history. Our music is a reflection of our characters, its sorriedness and its peculiar strength and beauty, requires a different mode of expression than the age of Bach or of Palestrini. We are groping for that mode of expression, striving for it, experimenting for it." The Arensky Trio to be played Thursday is a remarkable example of the modern Russian School. With its wild runs, involved counterpoint, and striking contrasts it is a work to test the ability of the most tried artists.
