The Daily Kansan aims to picture the undergraduate student in the role to go further than merely printing the news by stand-alone 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 guarantee the students of the University. FRIDAY, DEC. 3, 1915 THE UNIVERSITY OF KANAS. Is it not shame that here in this our Which men and women built in blood and, tears. and tests. That here their children learn to imitate The social smammings the wan East means. And of a man we ask, cheapening ourselves at the time, "I have no need, no' but 'What's the matter?' his frat?". Contributed. A WOMAN'S PLACE With the canvass among freshmen women to find out just what they intend to do when they graduate from the University in progress, one naturally is brought to wonder just what a woman's place in life really is. Every man and woman student in the University has some definite idea of what a woman should be in this world. Should she specialize in domestic economy, get household costs down to a nicety, become efficient in cooking, know all the ins and outs of housekeeping and learn all about the problems that confront a wife and mother? Should she take the same kind of studies as men, specialize in accounting, economics or journalism and it herself to work beside the man in the business world? Or, should she make a happy combination of the two, preparing herself for the duties of a wife and mother and get the other technical training as a sideline so that the knowledge will not be lacking in case misfortune compels her to support herself and children. It isn't so very long hence that every student of today will be out in the real world, trying to get enough to eat and wear for himself or herself and someone who is de-children? The Kansan runs a column for the expression of students' thoughts. Here is a question which might evoke some interesting argument. Take a half hour to tell other people what you think. Your idea might be new and interesting—and for all that, helpful to someone who can't decide. HOW ABOUT PREPAREDNESS? The effect of militaria on a democratic system of government, the result of a propaganda of over preparation with borrowed funds, the Refutation of the theory that over preparation and excessively large military establishments make for security was the only argument that Norman Angell, pacifist, advanced in favor of the limitation of the military forces in his lecture Tuesday afternoon. He could have said much more, and many who have read his books were disappointed that he did not, disappointed that he did not point out the disaster that may lie in the path of America if she enters the armament competition with the war-mad nations of Europe. He could have done so better than any other man. influence of military expenditures on the economic fabric of the national society—these are things well worth considering before this republic launches itself on the path from which history has shown there can be no turning. Some believe that over-preparation makes for war. The question is worth arguing. It would be foolish and fret to cry peace, when there is no peace, and to offer arguments against the increase of the army and navy, when the demand of the nation is for these things. Such an argument would find no hearing. But when America turns her mighty powers of construction from the paths of peace to those of conflict, as she may do, civilization retrogrades. There is no freedom in a military nation. Democracy—the democracy that America understands—becomes an idle dream. America might have pointed the way. A hundred millions of peace-loving people—But such is not to be. America will be "Prussianized." Military ideas will sink their roots into the soul of the nation. It will be transformed. This is what will follow if the country enters into European competition. The idea that the United States should be turned into an armed camp is utterly repugnant and abhorrent to the principles of democracy and the ideals of the nation. Preparedness is an essential—over- preparedness, a menace. ANOTHER GOOD TALK Prof. R, A. Millikan, one of the best authorities in this country on physics, will lecture in Fraser Hall, Friday afternoon at 4:30 o'clock. The week's work will be over and an hour given to listening to this lecturer and writer of text books will be wisely spent. With two interesting talks, by Norman Angell and Charles F. Scott, this week and these two by Professor Millikan Friday afternoon and Saturday morning, students of the University will feel grateful to the entertainment committee for its wise selection of one good week's entertainment. I love here more of it. Let's have more of it! AROUT THAT DEBATE Two classes are to be considered when the question of taking the Kansas-Nebraska debate down town comes up for discussion. There are the students who have paid for the enterprise tickets who live closer to Fraser Hall than to the Bowersock Theatre and who would be inconvenienced by going the extra distance. On the other hand, there are the townpeople who stand by the University year in and year out who find a trip up the Hill too great a sacrifice—even to hear a great national issue discussed. Of the two classes, it seems that the former can be the more easily satisfied. And so, in face of all the arguments the Bowersock Theatre appears to be the place to hold the battle of brains. Very few students who would attend will object to the trip downtown, while many of the people of Lawrence would go and pay admission downtown when they would not consider climbing Mount Oread. Evidently the National Nut Growers' Association disagrees with Bill Shakespeare about there being nothing in a name; It's president is W. N. Nutt. However, advocating taking this activity away from the campus does not mean that every entertainment should be given downtown. Mount Oread and everything on it is ours and we should treasure the idea of making the outside world come to us for the things we offer. She-I wonder why those streets when the Zennellans come? Female Ditto-Bog pardon, sir. I thought they bought Boston Transcript. Male Strap-hanger—Madam, you are standing on my toes. He—Why, they come to enjoy the bomby weather —Princeton Tiger. Send the Daily Kansan home. Though the task be great or small, 'Tis the man who leads them all That's the man. He's the man. Watch him show them how to do it; He's the man. Work there is and he can do it; He's the man. See him lead the others to it; H in the man Through defeat he will pursue it; He's the man. The Man When all life seems gone dead wrong, He's a man. Though reverses he may meet, He will never lose his feet That's the man. Through the knocks he sings a song, He's a man. He who fails and still fights on When it seem all hope is gone, That's the man. CAMPUS OPINION CAMPUS OFFICE Communications must be signed as evidence of good faith but bins will not be published without the writer's consent Bring your old suit to me and get twice as much for it. Editor of the Daily Kansan: "She loves the boys." "He works his Dad—and his professors." "He wears his heart on his sleeve." Now Mr. and Miss Senior, how would you like to have some such statement as the above beneath the 1916 Jayhawk? Pretty and touching sentiments, are they not? "She loves the boys. "Her tongue is sharp." If the Jayhawker is a production of the senior class and not of a few politicians, we ask that the seniors be consulted upon the childish business of the sensual kits of sensical information under a "digitized senior" name. Money loaned on valuables When young men and women come to be seniors at the University, it is high time that they put away childish ideas. You must learn to maner. It is only in high school annuals and back numbers of the Jayhawker that we find our friends telling of our private love affairs and the ways we know more than anyone else. Ten years from now in looking over your dayhawker would you like to see some of these things, chosen carefully from your darkest secrets by your dearest enemies. Would you not say then, "Well, well, I thought I was grown up when I was a senior at K. U, but I guess I was not after all?" A senior who has neither love affair nor dark secret.
