At Iowa they charge $5 for athletic tickets and complain of the small attendance at games. The M. S; J. Independent comments on the Haskell game and asks; "What will we do to K ansus?" Oh just tlame old thing dh. Missouri seems to be about the same fix as ourselves when it comes to oratory, and is now talking of withdrawing from the Intercollegiate association. How familiar that sounds! It certainly begins to look as though Kansas was to have a "never defeated" team again this year. The only team that could do anything to us, is Missouri and today's game with the Indians,shows up what Missouri's chances are. What has become of the Alford Memorial Tablet? Last spring we heard a great deal about the tablet, which was to be placed in the chapel to honor the Kansas hero who gave his life for his country. But lately we have hard nothing more of it. The project should certainly not be allowed to lapse. --- As the end of the season draws nearer, it becomes more apparent that Missouri is not going to linger in the rear in football as she has done in late years. The way she treated Nebraska last Saturday showed that the Tigers are playing some football, and that it will be a battle to the death on Thanksgiving Day. Who spoke of college spirit: Saturday the 'Varinity won the Drake game hands down. This game was looked forward to as the big home game of the season. In fact it was the only game worth looking at. The 'Varsity ran all over the Drakes and piled up an extremely one-sided score. Everybody yelled on the ground, but there was no demonstration whatsoever down town in the evening. A few students went down and saw a stack of boxes in front of Innes' store bearing a placard, K. U. 29, Drake 0. There were other boxes along the sidewalk and wagon loads of others that could have been procured but the Freshmen were too stuck-up, the Sophomores and Juniors had too much pride and the demure Seniors did not even go down town to talk the game over. About 0 o'clock a crowd of 10 year olds took the boxes to the park, yelled "Rock Chalk" two or three times and had a bonfire Of course the Freshmen and the Sophomores have had some little one and a half by two scraps, but there is no more life in Lawrence than there is in a good big cemetery. When the Tigers defeated Nebraska Saturday, the whole town of Columbia turned out and celebrated. The college bell rang the Nebraskan's knell, every whistle blew till it was hoarse; every bell rang till its tongue was blistered; the clocks all struck and even the roosters crowed and the geese cackled. This is college spirit. This is what Lawrence and the University needs. This space is paid for by DAVIES. The Students' Tailor. 921 Mass Street. LAW NOTES. L. H.

In the dust of the broad arena Her spirits rise and fall, Thread in the frank rushes. Where banners of black and yellow Deep blue, or crimson stream, She keeps on an ivory tablet The score of the football team. She comes in the golden weather, And comes if the skies are gray. For the game would be a failure With the football girl away. + With the bruised and battered ball. She flutters a dainty kerchief And is hailed by the proud eleven As the mascot of the field. A run from a supple player. A flash in the glaring sun. She joins in the franzized cheering, for the soul is tamed and won. G. F. GODDING. For the goal is touched and won. She wears the champions colors As home in the dusk she goes. To dream, it may be, of kisses Stolen under the rose. She wears the champions colors As home in the dusk she goes. Oh, soldier back from battle. Oh, soldier back from battle, Adorned with a captain's stars, Dim is your martial glory Compared to the half-back's scars! Your sword must be your true love, So to the wars depart, For an athlete in a sweater Has won her girlish heart. — Lester's Weekly SCHOOL OF FINE ARTS.

Cavah, the mother of all living beings, hurried to his side, but Adam pettishly waved her away and rising left the gloomy columns of the aanyan tree and lolled into the bright sunlight of the mountain slope. Mahalaleel, the first briandle pup in the world, rose, stretched, bit himself where the first flea nitted unsuspectingly and quietly dogged his master's footsteps. Adam was still an infant. His go years were but a small fraction of the 800 that had been cut off his portion, and as such had every right to be optimistic. Beneath his feet the mountain dived abruptly into a low, broad valley which sparkled and shimmered with numberless lakes. Huge cloud shadows bridged the widest streams and moved on across the plain in an endless silent caravan. To the left a few mighty trees stood sentinel for a dark waving forest a mile beyond. To the right a low chain of mountains disappeared into hazy nothingness which the eye could not penetrate. From east to west from mountain to horizon was a luxuriant garden exuberant with all that the heart could wish. Second only to the forbidden paradise. Yet Adam was unhappy. All this glorious nature was his. He had the only woman in the world. There was not another dog that could better Mahalaleel, but still the lines of care deepened on his face. True he had been thrust out of Paradise only three weeks before, but he was not thinking of that. Adam was feeling physically unwell. Surely his part of the apple must have been green and left some after effects. Even the sight of his dear wife sewing patiently on a wide rent in his best fig leaf, failed to sooth this irritation. And a ball game some monkeys were playing with a cocaoat angered him so that he frightened them out of fifty years of evolution. What could the matter be? Adam did not know. Could it even guess. Slowly, but surely, the sharp pains which had been racking his body began to mount upward. They shot down his arms and twitched his fingers convulsively. They caught his chest in a vise and he drew his breath in gasps. His neck attached and then all the blood in his body seemed to center in his head. His ears rung. His eyes felt as if stuck full of pine needles. Then his gums commenced to throb. Little pains would creep from his eyes or ears and jump suddenly into his upper gum, then more followed until it seemed as if all the agony in the world was gathered in that one gum. Adam had felt a bump in that gum. Could he have poisoned himself in some strange way. Mechanically he ran his hand over that bump; it had grown into the hardness of a rock. Horrible. He ran to his reflecting pool and looked in. Could he believe his eyes. There, where the bump had been, was a little but clearly defined white wedge just emerging from the gum and marring the otherwise perfect line of his mouth. It was Adams first tooth.—Silver and Gold.
