LAWRENCE, KAN., SAT., DEC. 16, 1901
The next issue of the Weekly will be a Christmas number and will be in magazine form. It will contain several interesting pieces, among them one by Mr. Willis Gleed. Also there will be stories and verses by prominent members of the Quill Club. The picture of the football team will make the paper especially desirable. Every one should possess one of these numbers.
Professor Carruth had a very interesting article on foot ball in the Wednesday "Capital." The following are the closing sentences: "I have had my say. I have done my best to secure what I believe to be the right action on the subject. It is now for others to carry the responsibility." In other words Professor Carruth thinks he has said enough and it is time to keep still. The student body would have agreed three weeks ago.
There seem to be more students writing essays than ever before. Two thirds of those on the hill have some kind of a paper due before the holidays. The Freshmen worry and fret over their five hundred word compositions. The urdy Sophs insist they are imposed upon because the English department demand a thousand words on "Utopia" or "Unele Tom's Cabin." The juniors grumble and groan—two thousand words are due day after tomorrow and as yet nothing has been done. Subject, "The Larger Elements of Clytemnestra," or it may be "Kant's Catagorical Imperative." Nor are the seniors without their little stunts to perform, one man has eighteen words to write ere graduation, and others are doing plays, annuals or twentieth century essays. Thus the weeks roll merrily on.
Kansas University will have tour debates this year instead of three. The executive committee of the debating council has accepted a challenge from Baker University and the following question has been chosen: "Resolved that a permanent income tax would form a desirable pert of our system of federal taxation"
4. U. will uphold the affirmative side of this question. The preliminary contest for this debate will be held sometime during the week beginning Dec. 16. The executive committee has decided upon the following rules governing debates for hhis year; a preliminary contest shall be held in which three men shall be selected to take part in the K. U.-Baker debate, these three men to be graded I, II and III, respectively by the judges according to their merits, these three men also to have first second and third choice according to their grades as to what places they shall have in the interstate debates, and further that a second preliminary contest shall be held to choose five men to make up the eight men who shall enter the Interstate debates, these five men also to be graded by the judges according to their respective merits and to have the privilege of choosing their places on the Interstate debates according to their grades after the three men on the Baker debate have had their choice. Each literary society belonging to the Debating Council may enter two contestants in the final preliminary. The exact date of this preliminary and time to be given each speaker will be announced later.
The following question has been chosen for the K. U.-Missouri debate, "Resolved that plants for supplying water, light and surface transportation should be owned and operated by municipalities. The sides as yet have not been chosen.
The University authorities are evidently in earnest in their intention to mitigate the importance of athletics in this institution. A movement is now on foot to cut the baseball trip down to five consecutive school days. This means that the team will not be allowed to stay out longer than eight days including Sunday.
A baseball schedule ought to consist of at least one game per day, in order to make a trip financially successful consequently the seven game arrangement will not admit of a very extensive trip.
It cannot be denied that the trip of last spring, also the one of the 1900, gave K. U. a good name in Iowa and Illinois, the ten days allowed for the trip was not directly responsible for many flunks; the success of our team against schools of Iowa and Illinois increases the interest in our own institution; why not allow ten days for the trip?
Reno Connty Club.
One of the jolliest crowds in the University met recently in the spacious parlors of Mrs. Boughten on Ohio street and organized the Reno County K.U. Club. More than a score are attending from old Reno and from the jolly meetings, delightful goes, etc., they have had, the club bids fair to be a great success. They are planning for a banquet to be given during the holidays at Hutchinson, to which all ex-K. U. students residing in Reno county will be invited to attend. The officers are: President, C. R. Briggs; Vice President, Miss Alma Leidigh; Secretary, Miss Clarice Pafford; Corresponding Seyy... N. R. Totten. The following are members: Miss Grace Smith, Jessie Eddie, Bernice Pafford, Grace Quarterman, Lois Ardery, Effie Taylor, and the Misses Gabrielson; Messrs. John Moore, Robt. Coppege, Chas. Corp, Howard Sawyer, H. Laver, S. Hughes, Fred Forney, Frank Moulton.
A mass meeting of the engineers has been called to meet next Tuesday noon to organize an engineering society.
Engineers' Mass Meeting.
The need of a social and educational organization among the engineers has been felt for some time. The great success of the banquet given last year, together with the general desire among the various classes for such an organization promises well for the success of such an organization.
Details of the plan of the society will be formulated at the meeting next Tuesday and it is desired that every engineer will be present and help in the work.
Interesting Lecture by Pro. Dyche.
The lecture will be given Thursday evening, Dec. 19, at 7:30, in Snow Hall.
Professor Dyche has kindly consented to give one of his famous lectures to the Graduate Club and all members of the University. This promises to be an event of unusual interest and importance. Prof. Dyche has a collection of fine views of Eskimos and other features of Northern Greenland which have never been exhibited before.

There is nothing like Asthmalene. It brings instinct relief, even in the worst cases. It cures when all else fails.
The Rev, C. F. WELLS, of Villa Ridge, Ill., says: 'Your trial bottle of Asthmahalme received in good condition. I cannot tell you thankful I feel for the good derived from it. I was a slave, chained — 10 patrols were threat and Asthma I ten years. I despaired of ever being cured. I saw your advertisement for the cure of this dreadful and tormenting disease. Asthma, and thought you had overpowered yourself, but resolved to give it a trial. To my astonishment the trial acted like a charm. Send me a full-size bottle.'

Gentlemen, I write this testimonial from a sense of duty, having tested the wonderful effect of your Asthma medicine, for the cure of Asthma. My wife has been afflicted with spasmodic asthma for the past 12 years. Having exhausted my own skill as well as many others I achieved to say we are upon your windows on Earlth Street, New York. I at one obtained a bottle of Asthma medicine. My wife can now take it about the first of Novem er. I very soon noticed a radical improvement. After a surgery one bottle her Asthma has disappeared and she is entirely free from all symptoms! I feel that I can consistently recommend the medicine to all who are afflicted with this disease disease. Yours respectfully.
