WHEN A STUDENT reports University news for an outside paper, two duties devolve upon him which are in a measure contradictory. One duty is to the newspaper he represents, the other to his University. One concerns the interests of his paper, the other the interests of his alma mater. In the ordinary course of events these two duties do not interfere with each other, but at times there is a sharp and decided conflict. Occasionally things happen in the University which would make good news for an outside paper but which if reported would injure the reputation of the University. At such times the student-reporter must decide which is the more imperative—his duty to his paper or his duty to his University. Of course he must look out for the interests of his paper, for that is his business. But every student should always bear in mind that he is a part of his University and as such must do nothing which will injure her reputation. If he must report events which in any degree reflect discredit upon the University, he should confine himself to the plainest and simplest facts, carefully avoiding overcoloring or overstatements; leave the public to draw its own untavorable inferences if any are to be drawn. In this respect at least his duty to his University should always be first, and at the same time he is fair toward all whose interests he represents. WE CONGRATULATE M. S.

Mr. Albert Griffin, of Manhattan, Kansas, addressed the students in chapel Monday morning. Mr. Griffin was in Lawrence in the interest of the "Native Sons and Daughters of Kansas." Dr. Draper, president of the University of Illinois addressed the students in chapel Thursday morning. The address was the kind that students enjoy and remember. Dr. Draper expressed himself as being greatly pleased with Kansas and its University. He emphasized the fact that the university is a great factor in the general success of life. "The one great good which a university does for a boy," he said, "is to show him where he stands in the minds of others. The spirit of democracy in university life is inclined to bring out the best in each student and to make him lose the part that is false. The doctor also mentioned that the governor of Kansas was a student of the University of Illinois, and that he should be an advocate of liberal appropriations for the university. Manager Plank was in Kansas City a part of this week looking after matters pertaining to the Missouri-Kansas game. The teachers of the Ft. Scott high school spent Friday visiting at the University.
