LAWRENCE, KAN., SAT. JAN. 25, 1902
The action of the Athletic board in raising General Manager Foster's salary to $500 for the coming year seems to receive the sanction of student opinion. Mr. Foster's successful management of the foot ball business gives good reason to expect an unusually good base ball schedule. With a good team, which is practically assured, base ball will continue to gain prominence in the university athletics as it has done for the past two years.
"Let us eat, drink and be merry"—even if exams are coming. The little new eating house which Billy Reynolds has just opened on the hill, has been much appreciated during the past week of cold and stormy weather. Mr. Reynolds has helped to solve the perplexing question of how a student can take a one o'clock class and not leave school with a ruined digestion. The means of a good lunch so close at hand does away with the necessity of the usual program of rushing down the hill, bolting dinner in nervous haste, and tearing up again, out of breath, cross and tired. There is no telling how many doctor bills our enterprising young doctor will save us.
Then here's to the man named "Bill," who has opened his shack on the hill. There'll ne'er be a question about our digestion, since all our demands he can fill.
ABOUT THAT BODY.
A number of State University students stole the body of a negro from a dissecting college, and had a sham lynching with it on the campus. What a joke! Yet the faculty permitted it. The impression grows that members of the faculty at Lawrence are afraid of the young men with long hair who attend school there.—Achison Globe.
The above clipping has been taken up and dilated upon by almost all the papers in the state and a great fuss raised over one of the most venomous, unvarnished lies ever printed. To say that there is not a particle of truth in the story would be putting the matter mildly. But three newspapers, without the semblance of an investigation, have taken up the cudgels against their own university at a second's notice. Why is K. U. put on the "index expurgatorius" of the state newspapers,
and why is every dirty tale about it cause for an orgie of smut throughout the state? We believe that there never was, or could be, five or six hundred young men gathered together conduct themselves with greater propriety or regard for the feelings of others than do those K. U. students. If Lawrence were a scene of wild revels—a miniature London of the Restoration, why should the town's people flock up on the campus to see the annual May pole fight—after all a rather tame affair—when they might see worse (if the papers of the state were to be believed) at any time on their own Massachusetts street.
Why, some of these papers have even gone so far as to begin to speculate as to who the students engaged in this "sham lynching" of the Globe were.
Cannot they be brought to a realization of the fact that Kansas University is one of the greatest institutions of learning of the country? That every blow they strike at it is aimed at themselves? Why, they revel like jackals in every mess of lies dished up about K. U. But we would like to reassure the people of the state that we are not body-snatchers and that we do not come to the University to study how to be resurrection men.
Meanwhile, as our editorial opened with the Atchison Globe, so let it close. It printed a harmful, dirty, contemptible lie about Kansas University. It did not trouble itself with the minutest investigation, even though the deed it charged the students with was an atrocious crime. Reparation is impossible, care hereafter in its statements would be advisable.
However, there can never be two Atchison Globes, which indeed is our only consolation for having one.
Chapel Exercises.
Why the crowd in the halls at chapel hour? This is a much mooted question all over the state. It swells the registration of the denominational schools and cuts down our own. Are the "godless" students to blame? Partly so, no doubt, but there is another side to the story. Do the chapel leaders aim to make attendance a matter of benefit and pleasure? Is it not a fact that, while the aim of chapel is to teach morality, a great proportion of the chapel talks are such flagrant peregrinations from this purpose as to seem incongruous and even ridiculous.
Phases of student life, seldom agreeable ones, are taken up and, instead of being handled in a gentle and kind manner, are often discussed almost venomously. One fond of figures might draw up a list of the pet aversions of certain professors and, sans doute, when their turn to lead chapel comes they will select one of these, maul it about for five minutes, then jump on it with rough, hob-nailed boots for five minutes more, and then—music by the chapel choir! Is it any wonder that the attendance is light and irregular? The time should come, and that soon, when the bulletin in the hall announcing chapel leader for the week, should be merely a bulletin and not a meter attached to the chapel attendance. If it were a case of their liking it, and the student body, being like Barkis, "willin'," it would be all right. But they are not "willin'." We would like to have some of these leaders, the next time their turn comes to lead chapel, practice Fra Elbertue's religion and "be kind." Then there won't be so many in the halls. B.
A New Club.
The Pan Hellenic, a new boarding club, was organized this week. An opening dinner was given Monday evening at five-thirty o'clock. The Pan Hellenic is one of the first clubs to adopt the evening dinner. Sixteen members were present at the organization. The club is located at 1003 Tennessee street.
Senior Class Meeting.

Arrangements are being made for the post exam jubilee, to take place Friday evening.
The classes in Mission Study are being reorganized for the study of the new text book, Beache's Geography and Atlas of Missions.
The date for the annual Y. M.
C. A. concert has been set. It is Tuesday evening, Feb. 4.
D. Baines-Griffith, Kansas City, a man well known and well liked here, will hold a series of meetings, beginning Feb. 15. The Young Women's Association will join in these services.
Mr. Boynton presented the cause of missions and the Volunteer convention, to be held at Toronto, in a very strong manner at the Sunday afternoon meeting. It was decided that K. U. would be represented and pledges were taken for the purpose of sending one or more delegates. Probably five in all will attend, several intending to pay their own expenses.

The Professor cited authorities proving that the importance of Whitman's work has been greatly exaggerated. He said the territory had been saved to the United States by natural immigration—not by the efforts of one man.
Saturday, Jan. 18, Professor Holder spoke to the History Club on the relation of Marous Whitman to the settlement of Oregon and Washington.
History Club.
The talk clearly brought out the difference between the old and new methods of writing history.
