"VOTES FOR WOMEN."
Will politics be improved when the women vote with the men? The question is raised by reflections on some incidents that have attended class elections at the University. Last year one young woman openly boasted that she had won a 5-pound box of candy by supporting a certain ticket. Another secured an invitation to a fraternity annual party in the same way. There were other cases where women students delivered their votes for even smaller considerations.
Unjust as it may seem to those who believe that women have an inherent "right" to vote, when they are given permission to vote in Kansas it will be through the ballots of the men. The men students now in school will probably be called upon to help decide the question before they are much older. Will their knowledge of what happened in class elections cause them to favor votes for women?
People who hear about the traffic in women's votes in University politics are inclined to laugh, but it is a somewhat serious matter when considered in its relation to the larger question. Just to prevent prejudice, it would do no harm for the Women's Student Council to try to prevent the practice in the class elections tomorrow.
Collected Relics.
Professor C. C. Crawford of the department of history, who has been in England during this summer, brought back several fine specimens of Roman civilization in Great Britain. His relies consist of a stone from the Hadrian wall, a piece of glazed tile, a part of a jug and a small portion of a mortar. This last is of special interest in that it was found only two feet beneath the ground and has stood the action of the water for over two thousand years. Scientific men are now making a study of the composition of this mortar.
Will Print Labels.
A printing press has been established in the office of H. T. Martin, of the department of paleontology, on the third floor of the Museum building. The new press is a small machine, which was moved from a downtown establishment. The press will be used to print the labels which are attached to the specimens in the department, which hitherto have been hand-lettered.
Always Welcome at "The Smoker,"
The soccer football season opened Wednesday morning with a casualty. In the practice scrimmage of the 10:15 gym class, H. P. Wasson, a freshman in the College, came into violent collision with another player, and as a result lost one of his front teeth.
