It is unfortunate that discipline in the University demanded the temporary suspension of two students for hazing. Hazing is againsts the rules of the school and merits punishment, and, we suppose the fact that a few are caught while many go at large is no excuse for the ones apprehended. At the same time the Chancellor and the Board of Regents will not make a mistake if they show a considerable leniency toward the young men who were manly and honest enough to acknowledge their guilt and their wrong. The hazing this fall was not premeditated at large, but was only the result of a wonton desire to have "fun" on the part of a comparatively few students. These students did not stop to consider that they were violating the rights of others. Had they thought, they would not have taken part in the hazing. The students well understand by this time the injustice of hazing, and further punishment of the two Sophomores would do no particular good, and would be an injustice to the boys themselves, since they were not so largely at fault at others.
Chancellor Strong, on his trip East, found that the educators in the old Eastern schools look upon the Mississippi Valley as the future seat of healthy University development. The people of this section have, of course, all along felt that when education and educational institutions began to "go stale," as it were, in the East, the West would give new life and impetus to the educational movement. Many well informed educators think that education along the Atlantic coast is at a standstill and that the supremacy in things educational is about to pass to the Middle West. This is the opportunity that the University has been preparing to meet, and everything should be done to see that Kansas has an opportunity to grasp the chance to become one of the great institutions of the country.
Now Gilehrist, star Tiger in the last Thanksgiving day game, is back in school in Columbia, and practicing with the Missourians. Hasn't Stan Myers another year at the gridiron game?
Girls' Party Postponed.

To Entertain University Girls. The Kansas City Women's Athletic club has sent invitations to the women faculty members of Kansas and Missouri Universities inviting all women students coming to Kansas City for the Thanksgiving holidays and the football game, to make their headquarters at the Athletic club rooms. If the ladies accept the invitation, the club will make arrangements to entertain a large number of students from both universities.
