The Daily Kansan aims to picture the undergraduate student to go for further than ever, printing the news by standing on the floor and playing no favorites; to be clean; to be cheerful; to be kind; to leave more serious problems to wiser heads, in all, to identify the students of the University.

THE SPIRIT OF THE PHARMICS
If the world were composed entirely of William Jennings Bryan there would be no need for defense protests. But it iam G. Washington Every Evening.
It has been pointed out many times that, as a University grows to number its students in the thousands, it loses much. And there is reason behind the argument, too. It is impossible to bring three thousand students together and keep the school one big family, its students nrowing one another, having like aspirations, and coming from families so near alike that they will find much in common. It is a truth that great numbers of people will naturally break up into a number of smaller groups, groups that are bound together by some common tie.
Often the tie that blinds is the constant contact of the class room. Thus the students in the School of Law are closer to one another than are the students of the College to those of the School of Engineering.
And in the smallest School in the University, the School of Pharmacy, it is natural that the students should be closer to one another than are those in any of the other schools. There are less than seventy-five of these pharmacies all told, but they cling together with a solidarity that offsets their lack of numbers. They are able to develop the true family spirit. They see one another every day and they have much that is of interest to their fellows.
Dean Sayre, who might well be called the Father of Kansas pharmacy, starts his flock on the right trail every year by entertaining all of them at his house. So from the very first they have an opportunity to work as a group and to gain the impetus that friendship and cooperation alone can give.
Possibly some of us, who have little occasion to enter the Chemistry Building, can not appreciate just what it means to have a real school spirit in a University. We should go over to the Chemistry Building some morning and see the pharmics in action. Then we would understand, and possibly wish we too, were of Dean Sayre's family.
REPRESENT K. U.—WELL
Next Friday most of the students will leave Lawrence to spend two weeks at home. Some of them will wear a different hat, a different suit, or a different style of speech from what they had when they left home in September. The folks back there are going to notice these changes, and they will ask, "Has college life improved John, or Mary?"
The upperclassmen on previous occasions have passed this inspection at the home town. Now the freshmen, imbued more or less with the college spirit, will go home to pass the same inspection. This examination will be more critical and will count
or more than many college men think. When visiting at home, or down town the student forgets that his interests have been changed somewhat from other people's and talks most of the time about football, nightshirt parades, dances, rallies and smokers, and the startling or alarming events which are sometimes accessible to college life; if he is not as cordial as previously, and on the second day home remarks that the old town is dead; then the men who overhear him will say, "College life isn't helping that man."
The home town judges the University by what K. U. students say and do. They know scarcely anything of grades or of the work done at a great school. Whatever may be the student's love for his college or his loyalty he should not forget that his home town expects more of him after he has been in college. He should be careful about offending his friends by mentioning things which can not be obtained in his home town. He should always remember that he is indebted to the 'town, and if it is not what it should be, then it is his duty to help make it better.
When you go home, get all the joy out of as many handshakings as you can. Represent your University as you expect a professor to represent it. You can raise the estimation in which the University of Kansas is held in your town.
DO IT.
THEY DESERVE PRAISE
The faculty committee having morning prayers in charge deserve praise for the work this year. Some of the state's best speakers have been brought to the University for five twenty-minute talks and each one of them has left some good thoughts in the minds of the students.
And morning prayers have been more lively than before. The music has been better and each meeting goes along with a snap that makes it interesting to attend.
"REGRETS, JUMBO"
"The best laid plans of mice and men—" you know it.
Down here in Lawrenee, Coach "Beau" Olecott was working with a vengeance to get together a gridiron machine that would snow up Jumbo Stiehm and his Nebraska Cornhuskers. That was the plan.
But now Jumbo decides that Indiana's $4,500 has a better jungle than Nebraska's $3,500 and he accordingly packs his trunk and buys a ticket from Lincoln to Bloomington. That's the "aft agley" part.
We regret to hear that the big man will leave the West. He has been valuable to Nebraska and has done much to teach the Kansans parts of the college pastime. We regret more the fact that the Jayhawkers will not have a chance to show him up next year.
Good bye, Jumbo. We will try to schedule a game with Indiana some day.
The merchants know that last-minute shopping is unsatisfactory. They know the shopper rushes into the store in a hurry, buys in a hurry, and is disappointed as a result. They know the clerks are becoming wormout, and necessarily cross, thus reflecting upon the store. They know their stock has been picked over by that time, and the best articles taken. Failing to find what is desired, the belated Christmas shopper places the blame upon the store.
"Shop Early" has become a slogan among the merchants. They desire to distribute, if possible, the Christmas buying, so that it is not thrown for the most part, into the last two days before Christmas.
SHOP EARLY!
Those planning their Christmas gifts, know, too, that late buying cannot be done so well. After each Christmas we hear resolutions to start early next year.
Still, year after year; the same comedy—or tragedy—is enacted.
Shop Early!
Shop Early!

CAMPUS OPINION
To the Editor of the Kansan:
The problem of securing teachers of Pharmacy has been called to the attention of the writer, frequently during the past few years. The Directors of Schools of Pharmacy, who have teaching positions to be filled, complain, quite generally, scarcity of men qualified to teach the subjects of Pharmacy their relation to the profession; the modern pharmacy; the nature of modern Pharmacy makes the teaching of it, a subject of peculiar educational interest.
While the positions for teachers of Pharmacy are few as compared to other lines of teaching, at the same time the men well qualified to fill such positions are even fewer. Those sought as teachers are usually among the graduates of the four year course of pharmacy, and preferably those who have had, in addition, experience in the retail drug business. Since only a small percentage of the graduates are from the four year courses, and even fewer are otherwise qualified to teach, the problem of filling teaching positions, in our schools of pharmacy, with properly trained men, is easily understood.
It is not hard to find men prepared to teach Chemistry, but to find men trained in Chemistry as applied to Pharmacy with its peculiar and interesting problems, is difficult. There are plenty of men trained in the branches of biology, but the man trained in bacteriology in its relation to pharmacy, or in botany as applied to pharmacy or in physiology in its relation to the other branches of the subject, is not usually to be found. The man fitted to teach the art of prescription compounding, and the skillful preparation of pharmaceutical products, is even harder to find. In this connection it may be said that the man trained strictly in pharmacy is not usually lacks the broader fundamental knowledge of the subjects, necessary for a good teacher.
There seems to be more than a college course required to fit a man to best teach modern pharmacy. The man with a good schooling and a reasonable amount of retail drug store experience is the one who will be able to problems the students is seeking to solve. A large per cent of the pharmacy students, in many of our schools, have had retail experience. Students of Pharmacy must not only be trained to properly compound drugs used in medicine but must know something about successful business methods and management.
It is evident that the qualifications for the teacher of pharmacy are quite different from the teachers of many other subjects. To satisfy the university requirement, if a university teacher is required to remain at the standard. At the same time the subject matter presented must be the kind demanded by the student who wants to know pharmacy as it will enable him to get better returns in actual practice. The student such a technical skill presents a problem different from the one who takes the general courses of the university for their educational value. It is not an easy task to convince the student, so commercially inclined, that there is a chance for the student to acquire a high professional way. Such service may be rendered in the analytical and testing laboratories, which may be easily established in any drug store. There is
urge amount of such work that meets in the realm of pharmacy, as well as in the realm of health training received in any of the recognized schools of pharmacy, offers to the graduates of such schools, quite good opportunities in both commercial and professional endeavors. The team at Pharmacy must be able to ing an overcrowded profession; the field of the research laboratory is enlarging; and the big problem of bettering conditions for the retail pharmacist demands the best efforts of every staff member. The trend of pharmaceutical education and research, there is great encouragement for the man well trained in Pharmacy.
a large amount of such work that falls within the realm of pharmacy.
