When we consider the strifes of St. Petersburg students all will agree that America is the best of all and that Kansas is the best of America,
Every time the Kaw rises or the ice jams begin to move some of the engineers spend most of their time at the bridge figuring on "its" and "supposings."
If the University of Kansas turns out a few more men like "our" present legislators and a few more Charley Scotts, Billy Morgans, Bill Whites, Frank MacClennans and Ewing Herbets, there won't be a black one in the bunch and Kansas can live on her "rep."
--and boys as Mr. W. A. White. He has helped many boys through school in Emporia and elsewhere and is ever ready to do what he can for a fellow who aspires to be anything and has good habits. Many of the college and town boys in Emporia look upon Mr. White as a fatherly man to whom they take all of their troubles and get the best advice that Kansas can afford, without any charges. If all of the boys and young men that the Emporia editor has advanced to a higher life remain ungrateful to the man that fostered their ambitions and helped them in time of need Mr. W. A. White can never suffer reverses enough to feel the need of a happy house and good living.
A Pan-Hellenic whist league is being organized at the University of Iowa. Last year the league conducted a very successful tournament and a more successful one is anticipated for this year. There is some talk of a Pan-Hellenic whist league here. This would doubtless be the source of much pleasure and a little diversion from dancing would probably meet the approval of most society people in the University.
In balancing our books as officials of the KANSAN the editor-in-chief and members of the board feel under obligation to the printer and have received only the most courteous treatment at the hands of the present force in the KANSAN "shop." Many times the KANSAN has been issued after midnight and some Sunday mornings have found members of the KANSAN staff and the printers closing up shop to turn around and greet the morning sun. A semi-weekly, and one that has only missed one regular day of issue, has been made possible by unpaid for kindnesses of the printer and the printer's force as much as anything else.
Probably no man in Kansas has done so much to foster the ambitions of industrious young men
Of late their has been considerable comment on the sickness in the University. It has never been doubted that Lawrence has been, and is, one of the healthiest, if not the most healthy, of all school towns in Kansas. There is no student body in the state, or in the West probably, that has so little sickness a comparison to the number of students, as the University of Kansas. Fatalities are practically unknown here and because there has been some appendicitis and a few cases of la grippe a few student have seen "Father Time with his Reaper" standing at the foot of the hill every day. Appendicitis cannot be attributed to any unhealthiness of the town nor the water. Few cases of appendicitis were ever suffered here until recently and because four students were operated on within two months there is no need of alarm. We are to be considered fortunate, exceedingly so, because there is scarcely a college in Kansas with one-sixth the enrollment that the University has but what has had one or more deaths in the student body this year. One of the chief reasons of sickness in college is the fact that students are extremely careless regarding their health.

The dance given at Fraternal Aid Hall Friday night, under the auspices of the law school, was a success. There were about eighty couples on the floor and a good time was enjoyed. The grand march was led by Harry Keene, Law '04, and Miss Garney. This is the first law party which has been a financial success and the committee is contemplating other parties for later in the year.
