It has been a favorite plea with the sectarian schools of Kansas and of other states that to send a young man to the State University was the same as consigning him to predition. They claimed that the instructors are all atheists and skeptics, and that every obstacle was placed in the way of a student's religious life. In many country districts and in parts of the state where little was known concerning the state schools this rot was accepted as gospel. But the people throughout the state are not to blame for this. The state schools have never felt it necessary or becoming for one school to deride and misrepresent another. But it has been the custom for some of the private and sectarian sxhools to eagerly seize upon any juicy piece of gossip and every rumor of misdeed and each taint of a foul thought coming from a state school and scatters the news of it broadcast throughout the state. While all this was being done to portray the dark side of the public schools the private concerns were pictured as innocent homes where no harm could enter, and where every young man and young woman was safe as at home. Any dirty scrape, any drunken spree, any racy news concerning these garden spots was carefully hidden from the public.
But of late years a reaction has come. The people are beginning to realize that there are two sides to every story. They have found out that the two strongest organizations at Kansas University are the Y. M. C. A, and the Y.W.C.A. There are more Methodists attending Kansas University than at Baker. The people have come to believe that a religion which a person accepts voluntarily is better than a collection of forms which he is forced to observe. At the University of Kansas no one is forced to take part in any religious services. As a result only those who are really interested go. It is better for a student to remain away from chapel than to go and scoff. The morals of the students at Kansas University will compare favorably with that of any body of students in the land. And in addition to the lessons in manhood and womanhood the student is taught to rely upon himself,to be good because it is right,and not because he is commanded to observe certain forms while in college.

With this issue the K. U. WEEKLY has made a new departure. It has made the experiment of using good paper, and at the same time of keeping it full size. It is the intention of the management to keep it in this form just as long as the students will maintain it. The manager is also endeavoring to arrange for having the WEEKLY delivered every week by carrier. Would you like to have it that way? If you would, tell the manager so. If you don't want it that way express your opinion.

Shall a Young Man Study Law?
The present scheme of consolidating business interests has lessened the demand for lawyers. One corporation lawyer supplants many lawyers who, in the past, were assured of incomes from numerous small concerns.
Commercial law being more remunerative than forensic law, it has attracted the great lights of the bar. The modern corporation counsel seldom or never appears in court. It is not now a common thing; as in the days of DanielWebster or Rufus Chout, for a prominent lawyer to appear in court in a criminal case. Indeed, it is hard for a criminal to secure the services of a high-class man. Corporation law, of course, pays more. A man in general practice is fortunate if he can earn fifteen thousand dollars, while a corporation lawyer's income ranges from twenty-five thousand to one hundred thousand dollars.
So, although a lawyer myself, I do not advise a young man to rush blindly into the study and practice of law, for the present supply is greater than the demand.
The youth of this country have generally considered law as a stepping-stone to political preferment. This is a mistaken idea under present conditions. Thirty, yes, ten years ago, a lawyer in a community was a man of distinction. The smaller the community, the greater was the power of his word and influence. He was consulted on matters of petty and of national interest. He was the law and the village oracle. His presence was necessary to the success of any public business. Today, lawyers are too numerous for any such individual distinction.
Natural gifts determine legal success to a marked degree. The most important are personal magnetism, sympathy, and a capacity for thorough reading. It is wise for one to cultivate such traits, if the law is to be his mistress.
The best way to study law is at some recognized law university. An academic education is first necessary. Although a college one is not, the college-educated man makes the better lawyer.
I do not wish to discourage, but rather to caution, when I advise young men to pursue at the threshold of the professions before deciding on law. To those who are determined, I advise commercial, or corporation law. Those who follow it will be endowed with more of the world's goods than the old-tiir practitioner. After graduation, o should enter the law offices of a corporation, and work his way Brains and ability are hard to thwart, when coupled with personal magnetism, and a distinct determination to win.

A bowling tournament will be started at the Merchants Athletic association club house early in October. It is the intention to make it a handicap affair, and get as many of the members to take part as possible.
Coach John Outland of the football team of the University of Kansas, went to Kansas City this morning to have a conference with Tucker and the Kansas City Dental college. The result of his trip will be awaited with interest.
The first call for foot ball men by Coach Outland of the University of Kansas, brought out a half dozen sturdy fellows last evening, and practice on the campus near the gymnasium in handling the ball and kicking was carried on for a couple of hours. On Monday the work will begin in earnest. Among the men out yesterday were Meehan, Worley, McKenna, Woodward, Smith and Morton.
The first foot ball practice of the Haskell Indians was held Friday afternoon under the direction of Coach Ellick. A large number of desirable men for places on the elevens were on the field. The work will begin in earnest next week, when the members of the base ball team will be home, and ready to begin work.
