assisted by Beatrice Burford, harpist, and Norman Secon, pianist
Carola Ooya is one of the most
glamorous figures in the dance
world today. Young, svelte and
beautiful; complete mistress of the
technical side of her art; gorgeously costumed and radiating the Joy,
the pride and the passion of Spain,
she flashes across the stage in an
unforgettable riot of color rhythm
and grace. Her recitals of Spanish
dances have created a veritable
furore wherever presented in Seville, in Paris, in London, New
York, Chicago and all other large
American cities from coast to coast.
It has been announced that anyone not a member of the association who will pay his next year's
dues in advance of the Ooya recital may attend as a guest of the
association.
The dues for adults
are $5.00 and for students $3.00.
There are only 200 new memberships available in the association at
this time. Next year's list of ts

HERE SHALL THE KERNEL ALL
STUDENT RIGHTS MAINTAIN
A PROGRESSIVE

LIBRARY

In line wiih the recent suggestion of The
Kernel and with the idea of more efficiently
serving the student body our library has extended its closing hour to ten o'clock. The need
and reasons for such procedure are well understood by all and were advanced at some length
in this column.
It is our purpose, therefore, to compliment
the library administration upon this effort to
aid the student body in making better use of
its facilities. It is an exhibition of a progressive
spirit and is decidedly deserving of commendation. At the same time The Kernel hopes that
this will be merely the initial step in improving
the bibliothccal accommodations of the University. The library has enjoyed a constant
growth but likewise has the student body. In
certain respects the library's facilities have failed
to keep pace with this growth of the student
ImkIv, and a remedy of this condition is

HONORARIES
The Kernel is filled
of pledging to I Felta Thi,
with annoncemcnts
Sis Boom Bah, Spears, Lantern and Symbol,
Ixmks, etc. The candidate wears a dainty piece
of ribbon for a short period, pays out his hard
cash and is then duly entitled to dangle from
his watch chain the emblem of the organization.
Two weeks after initiation the purpose of the
organization, if it has any, is utterly forgotten
by the initiate.
The foregoing description is typical of the situations which are daily developing around us.
Everyone is making a mad effort at a front which
will gain him recognition and subsequent pledging by some organization while at the same time
the various societies are casting wildly about
for enough "suckers" with the cash which is
customarily required for entrance into such an

organization.
There are about fifty organizations on our
campus which exist under the title of honorary

of one sort or other and out of this fifty,

are hard put to justify
A large number of them exist purely as representatives of gigantic national rackets; most
of the money which is paid in as initiation fees
is sent to the "national headquarters" which in
turn sends back a small sheet of paper which
says "This is to certify that Blank Blank is a
member of Blank Blank."
The fact that such a situation exists is undeniable. One can even make the assertion that
anyone having the money necessary and the desire to get into some honorary in order that he
may have the privilege of wearing a key and the
pleasure of writing home to the folks that he has
"made" such and such an organization can
easily find one which will be willing to welcome
him as a brother.
Moreover such organizations are a definite
hindrance to the efforts of really worthwhile organizations which attempt to bestow honor
where honor is due and which contribute something tangible to campus life in the form of
ideals and standards which are worth striving
three-Eourth-

after.

That such a condition should exist on the
campus of the University of Kentucky is indeed
deplorable and little short of amusing. The
student body should awake and rebel against
the existence of societies which have no merit.
The "honoraries" not only tend to overshadow the purjxises and ideals of more worthwhile
organization, but they seriously impede them in
the selection of candidates which really possess
merit, because of the difficulty of sizing up the
worth of the organizations and honors which
they have received.
WHY STUDY?

There is a song that goes something like this:
"The more you study, the more you know; the
more you know, the moie you forget; the mote
you forget, the less you know; the less you
know, the less you foiget; the less you forget,
the more you know; so why study?"
Here are some figures which, fiom a finaniial
standoint, show the value of stud)ing. A statistical suivey made recently by the Massachusetts Depui tiiieni of Labor and the College of
Business Administration at Boston Univeisity
thows that the average college graduate earns,

The untrained man receives his maximum

his average maximum salary of $2,200 at the age

salary depends on his physical ability, has
passed his usefulness.
