Subscription price, $40 per year, payable in advance. Single copies, each. Entered as second-class month September 17, 1919, at the post office at Lawrence, KS.
ON FEES
The last day for paying fees—even with the penalty for tardiness—has come and gone, and now students who cannot pay must be removed from classes. A request by authorities to the Board of Regents for an extension in time was denied, and by the ruling of the Board, all fees must be paid by February 23.
In the face of the much-heralded "financial difficulties" abroad everywhere, the question arises: Why not an easy payment system for fees? A dollar down and a dollar a week buys many other things—why not an education?
University authorities have two reasons for the emphatic "Impossible" with which they answer this proposition. In the first place it is explained that the fees actually form 35 per cent of the school budget for the year. Total fees for each student enrolled must be sent to the state treasurer by the first March. This money is actually necessary for running the University, taking care of one third of the expense items in the budget.
The second reason for the answer is just as definite. At the beginning of the school year, the teaching staff and equipment selected co-ordinate with the enrollment. If students made only a small down payment on their fees and then could withdraw in a month or so without paying the balance, the University would be faced with contracts for heavy expenditures, and a drastically reduced income. Students who withdraw and left Lawrence could scarcely be forced to pay the remainder of their fees, unless they wished to do so.
University authorities estimate that about 600 students withdrew or were graduated from the University at the end of the first semester. This is practically the same as in former years, although the ratio is a little higher, because of decreased enrollment the first semester of the year.
The figures do not indicate a crisis, however. Although some students have probably been forced out of school by the impossibility of raising enrollment fees in a lump sum, still the majority seem to have had the money, and many others have obtained it through the Student Loan fund, which they will repay each month during the remainder of the school year. As an added measure of relief, the committee has been unusually lenient in excusing students from the penalty required for the late payment of fees.
Undoubtedly an easy payment plan would be a fine thing for students. But as matters stand it would take an Einstein or a Technocrat to figure out how to make one work.
GOING STALE
Sick to death of school, of classes, of getting lessons in this and that! Never want to see another notebook or listen to another lecture. And, furthermore, hope never to write another paper or read another history book. Hitting the old ball has knocked all
the glamour off of putting out a campus daily.
Searecely a moment's rest—only time to catch the train home and catch up on a few hours sleep—and the old grind has started all over again. Another semester is in full swing. Even new classes and new professors can't break the spell. Continuous, unbroken monotony. Not even a bright thought to interrupt. No inspiration. Just an insumurable obstacle booming ahead that deadens one's initiative and energy and keeps one wondering where he is going to find material for that next paper that must be on the desk by nine in the morning.
Ho hum. What a life!
SWALLOWED
The Chinese carp and the Japanese goldfish were swimming in he sea; the Chinese carp ate the Japanese goldfish, what a curious sight to see.
Perhaps the phantasy above may not be as trivial as it sounds if history repeats itself. If it is possible for Japan to conquer China, which is doubtful—probably impossible — there is always the almost practical certainty that she will be absorbed, swallowed as wore the Mongol and Manchu invaders of China in the past. Expose seventy million people to four hundred million and see what kind of combination you get.
But the most important factor to be considered is the possibility that China may emerge from the gorging process filled with militaristic ideas. Such a possibility was expressed by Vernon Nash, exchange professor from China to the University of Missouri, who spoke here Friday. A development of that sort is in line with past historical events. Pre-war Prussian militarism led to post-war French militarism. What if slumbrous, paced old China emerges powerful, menacing, overbalanced by illogical militarism—a fourth of the world's population filled with the conquest fever—! It is something to think about.
BEWARE! ITLL GET YOU!
According to an unofficial survey, the University is in the clutches of another infant epidemic. This time it is intestinal influenza, and each day new sufferers are added to the casualty list.
The first evidence of trouble leads the victim to think that perhaps the ice cream-lobster combination wasn't such a wise choice after all. But with the coming of the fever, the back-ache, and—you know, it becomes evident at last that you have it.
No one is immune, it seems, to the disease, and those who have allowed their physical condition to be weakened through neglect and carelessness are easy victims.
What can one do to keep up one's resistance?
What should one eat and drink?
For the sake of those who haven't contracted the sickness, these questions should be answered by someone who is capable of giving the information.
Although you may be doing
your best to keep fit, you may be next. Wouldn't it be possible for the hospital staff to issue some hints on how to keep well and happy?
AQUATIC SAFETY
The American Red Cross has been working for years to lower the mortality rate from drowning. Last week a representative of the Red Cross came to this campus and conducted an examiner's school for life savers, in which the best methods of rescuing and reviving were demonstrated.
The purpose of this organization, in its extensive program of providing instruction and giving tests, is not primarily to prepare candidates for positions on life saving crews, but rather to educate people as to how to save lives in case of drowning accidents where there are no official guards on duty, such as on private boating parties. It is a rare occurrence to have a person drown in a supervised pool where everyone is being watched and must swim in accordance with the regulations of the pool and under the direction of the guards. Yet it is not uncommon to read or hear of drownings in small groups where no one was able to make the rescue. It is cases of this kind that the Red Cross is striving to eliminate.
QUIPS from other QUILLS
Several centuries ago, America was regarded by immigrants as “the promised land.” But now it’s the much-promised land—Texas State Lass-O.
Phog Allen of the University of Kansas, admitted the best basketball coach in the country, has made an outstanding bid for unpopularity by his campaign against the whoooping fans who dare to criticize officials. Dr. Allen wrote that he believes citizenenge believes the admission penalty him not only to a seat but also to the right to fill the gymnasium with his vocal protests at any fancied wrong to the home town boys. Losing either the seat or the chance to exercise his lungs, he may come to the conclusion that he should listen to the game over the raid and at his wife --TLK, in Corinthian Blade-Emph. ?
When Thanksgiving comes we shall sit among other things our pleasant uprise back on February 14 when we will celebrate our annual holidays. C.W.J., in Winfield Courtier.
Being a rebel has long been an of-fence punishable by death, but Nicaragua has adopted a slightly less drastic punishment for the impugnant soldiers of the elite. The government is giving them a farm apiece — Kansas City Kansan.
Doctors have discovered a new method of grafting leg nerves to the face. Which will probably mean a lot more about conditions—Texas State Lose-0.
There are moments when we are inclined to think that after all Will Rogers is pretty clever. For months he has not been able to make it clear what pure Democratic propagands on their front pages but he has even got them to pay for it—J-PH, in Ottawa Herald.

CHAPTER 11...Larry determines to play the Player and end his association with the boy who has appended to his hair room. He asks the girl to leave the room at a fraternity house. Max Verris arrives and goes to his room. Tony ends up in the room as the boy does, not leave the house almost immediately afterward, vivibly in a state of rage. He learns less likely, apparently clothing to be worn.
CHAPTER VI—Havenay interrogates the man who was killed by the murder. Welch is wounded in the attack, and Thayer was alive when he left him. The body of the man who is being seemingly endowing to his life has been tilted his firm conviction being that the resulting series of incidents mere-occurs.

Jim Hawney stood at the curb and commented in complimentary fashion, "We've been working hard to thank the heart of the local detective. Then they walked through the big gates and climbed to the warden's door. They entered the access to the prisoners at any time. The warden conducted the two men to the little room which was occupied by them."
She rose as she entered; a trim womanly figure in a dark blue dress. She showed signs of the strain there was on her face, but she it. It was plain that she was making an effort to remain calm. Reign intuitively surveyed and all three seated themselves.
"You understand, Miss Payton," said Hanvey quietly, "you don't have to talk if you want to."
scene between Mr. Thayer and Ivy Welch. You buttoned in and a general row followed. It don't matter just what was said. The point is that you and Thayer and Ivy were all sore, weren't you?
"I have no objections to talking," she answered calmly.
He liked her cool, quiet, straight forward manner. He was as though she had nothing to hide and nothing to fear.
"Now the first important thing I've got to find out is this. Miss Pogonian, Thayer? What is it?" Thayer? What I mean is: What right you have bawling him out for making him go.
"Good. I shall have to ask questions which might be kind of—well—direct. Is that all right?" "No."
The big man reached for the golden toolkit and clicked it open. It seemed intended to talk to talmud, polygony fingers were busy with that gigantic instrument.
"Yes."
Tony's face flashed, and, for an instant, her eyes flashed. She an swerved rather coldly:
"I'm not going to waste your time with a lot of silly questions, Miss Peyton. I reckon I could start at the beginning and check up with you on how much work we are ready, just to see if you'd tell me the same story. But I won't."
"I think you're presuming a good
"Thank you," said Tony gratefully.
"I'm only going to ask you about the movie." He nodded. "No, a bread. I mean, a bread, I mean, a bread, grin split in its lips. "That's far enough, isn't it?"
"Yes. . . . " She found herself warming to this big man. He seemed honest; genuinely, deeply honest.
"What Right Had You Bawling Him
Out for Making Love to Another
Girl!"
"I know," continued Jim softly,
"that you overheard a sort of love
deal, aren't you. Mr. Hanvey?"
"No maum, Honest. I ain't as dumb as I look. I know there was something between you and Thayer. May be it was jealousy—maybe something else. But it's awful important that I find out."
"Because if I don't know the truth, I've got to figure things my own way. You see, that's a sort of link in the chain that gets to be welded . . . and one of the most important things is there was between you and Thayer."
"I'm sorry if you don't," plended Hanvey, "because it isn't helping body for you not to tell me the truth, that you're wrong." You hurt you any worse than having me think things. That is, unless you really killed him yourself—"
"I don't see. . . ."
"I didn't say you did. But listen. Miss Peyton: Put yourself in my place. Make sure to find out that there makes him so pretty little, blond. Give you him thunder—and it's clear there's something between you. At the end of that interruption, when you're walking into the room. Then a little later you walk straight up to Thayer's room in the fraternity house and a little while after you leave you know where he's going. That truth hurt you much worse than that?"
"I feel that I should speak frankly.
I—I have a hunch that you're not trying to trick me."
"That's it, Miss Peyton. Because no matter what you want for, or what happened after you got there, it was worth it." He could start to start the whole empire talking.
"Thank you kindly, m'am. And you've got me right: I swear you have."
She bit her lip, then spoke sharply. "You are wondering how I dared to go to Mr. Thayer's room in the fraternity house when I knew it would smart the whole crimson gossiping crowd." She said. "I had a good reason for going there?"
"That," announced Tony bravely, "is precisely what I went there."
"To start gossip?
JUST THE
WHAT. GO
"So the truth would come out, and when it did, Pat would be forced to let Ivy Welch alone."
"The truth? What is the truth, Miss Peverton?"
Tony did not evade. Her answer came in a firm, cool voice:
"Hurry, the Internet's mislead."
came in a hotel, cool voice:
"I am Pat Thaver's wife."
Jim blinked and fumbled for his toothpick. There was an audible gasp from John Reagon. And then, as they listened in stupided silence, Tony told-in a level, emotionless tone—of what happened to Thuyer and of what had occurred since that time. When she finished she sent herself, Himp and frightened. Suppose she had done the wrong thing before she and her duggery for Jim Hanvey. He seemed so comfortably friendly. There was something in his solid calmness
which compelled me to avoid evasion. One gathered that he instinctively respected her for her intelligence, respected the former and deepened the latter. The girl took a deep breath. Her brain told her that she had done everything that said that she had done the best thing.
"And so you see," she said, after a long pause, "I had to protect ivy. I knew Pat Thayer was married—but she did."
"I see . . . . And, of course, you
were not featolous, were you?"
"No. . . . " The color flooded her cheeks.
"You mean: Not then?" prompted Hanvey.
"Of him!?" She gave a short, bitter laugh. "He is dead now—and this may not sound well; but I desplied him."
"That explains a good deal," I was as though Hanwever did it. "You could have expected to guess that you were Thayer's wife. And nobody else knew."
"Even Larry Welch didn't know then that you were Thayer's wife, did he?"
Reagan's head jerked up sharply. He saw the girl start with surprise. She saw her cheeks blanch. Then he locked curiously at himself. The hive got bigger and was gazing faintly at the gluing toothpick—unapparently unmildful of the vital question he had asked. Reagan had just concluded that Jim didn't even know what he had stumbled upon in a quiet conversation. In a quiet, conversational tone.
And now Tony Peyton was definitely on guard. Her tiny tits were clenched and she was sitting forward teensely, 'oh,' she said sharply. "He didn't know."
"But," suggested Jim, "you told him few minutes later, didn't you?" "Who said I did?"
"Goss! "Miss Peyton — I didn't梦 anybody mis said. so, I was just asking: "What did you work on? worked up. You'd think I was trying to trap you. i isn't honest, i am!"
"I just suggested that you went straight to Larry Welch and told him the truth. Aln't that a fact?"
"I think I'd rather not discuss it any more, Mr. Haney, I'm afraid I've already said entirely too much."
