THAT JAYHAWK BIRD
The dayhawk hawk is boasting a new growth of feathers. They are mostly pin-feathers, to be sure, and they do not adequately hide the soaked made by the feather-pulling of the other boasts of the valley, but the old bird is proud of his new growth and dares once more to walk out in the center of things with the sleek Wild-cat, the Tiger and the Cormoran.
And who is responsible for the rejuvenated bird? The cheering section? No. It is the football team and the coaching staff. The cheering section urged the team on throughout the whole game, but at the start it was skeptical, and after the first quarter it was still more skeptical. It was only after it had caught the winning spirit of the team manifested in the spendid display of football that it too began to show the same fight.
It was the spirit of victory that caused the line to open up big holes for the backfield to march through toward a touchdown. It was the spirit of victory that caught the Sooners flat-footed with a trick play when an Ajnhawker touchdown was at stake. It was the spirit of victory that caused the team to overcome all obstacles in the last eight minutes to turn what seemed to be certain defeat to victory. Back of this spirit, of course, was the hard work of the players and coaches on the practice field, working when even their most loyal supporters had decided that the task was hopeless, that everything was a mess, and that the possibility of victory something to be mentioned in an undertone.
It will be a well-feathered bird that will travel to the air of the Tiger next week, and it will be a confident bird with the determination to preserve his plumage.
So now the Jayhawk is basking in the sun arranging his new growth of feathers. He is sharpening his claws on the gridiron in anticipation of Tiger meat. He has tasted victory, and the taste has created the lust for more.
After all this controversy concerning the meaning of college spirit, a promising student solved the question by consulting the dictionary.
THE AUTO DEATH RATE
Horror would grip our hearts with its cold, clammy fingers were we suddenly faced with the medical dangers to life and limb of famine, disease and warfare. Yet daily we face unperturbed an increasing menace without a serious thought to stay its progress.
The automobile, as shown in recent reports, is taking a daily toll of life that eclipse all former records. During the month of September an average of 70 persons were killed each day by motor vehicle accidents in the United States. For the first eight months of this year the death rate amounts to 18.9 per thousand. Of those killed 70% were pedestrians, a third of whom were children under 15 years of age.
By comparison with the death rate of diseases this rate is truly alarming. Diphtheria ranks very high, taking 16.4 out of every thousand; other
LOG FIRE
At the fragrance of the forest,
All the scents of wood and vine,
Give flavor to the essence
Of the olive oil at wine.
All the beauty of the loadeee,
Braunes in a leafy maze,
Are gathered in the twinkling
Of the meru, winking blaze.
Of the evaclling log of pine.
All the music of the outdoors,
Of late, and harp and lyre,
Are hallowed in the lilt tunes,
Played by the heartstone fire
All the abuse, power and quiet,
Dreams of lose mountain trails.
Are carried up the chimney
By the drawing, swelling veils.
discusses are as follows; whoping
rough, 10.4; mouch, 9.4; searet
t fever, 5.2; small pox, a once drenched
seareut, 0.3; while typhoid is totally
nelligible.
Preventive measures must be studied more seriously and applied more thoroughly. Medical science has worked long and faithfully to reduce the dangers of disease; we must apply equal wisdom to the auto death rate problem. Greater precaution among pedestrians, supervision of auto driving requiring rigid rules for acquisition of permits, universal methods of traffic control; all possible phases of the problem need the attention of our best minds. The mounting auto death rate must be stopped
A LOST BATTLE
Medical science has taken the sting out of disease; the time is at hand to halt the juggernaut.
The British miners have yielded. For six months they staved off the eight-hour day, fighting the mine owners, Parliament and starvation.
The mine owners sympathized with them; but the mine owners never yielded. The Church of England protested for them; but the Church of England retained its royalty. American labor declared its allegiance; but American labor minded coal for English consumption. Parliament debated and debated again; but Parliamnet never halted starvation.
The British miners have yielded Starvation laughs at courage.
California does not seem to be particularly perturbed in its loss of Queen Marie. Still, it has its Aimee McPherson.
We cannot help thinking what a magnificent news story Marie's visit to Angela Temple would have made however.
THE RED CROSS
With the annual Red Cross roll call for funds we have one of the finest opportunities to give to a great service.
Probably the Great War left us no better heritage than the fuller realization of the place the Red Cross plays in the lives of suffering humanity. This great organization worked long and faithfully during the war; but it has functioned just as admirably in times of peace where no glory urged it on. In every disaster, great or small, the medical attention and food supplies of the Red Cross have been among the first on the scene.
Surely no more noble impulse could result from any war than the impulse to give, each in his own measure, to the red Cross.
Freshmen at McGill University must adhere to very stringent regulations. They must enter all buildings on the campus backwards. They must not speak to an upperclassman without having been spoken to, and they cannot come to school in an automobile, or walk on sidewalks.
The drive for funds in Douglas county is under way. Much of the money will be used locally to alleviate conditions of poor health among indigent families right here at home. The entire subscription, in fact, is to be expended in improving conditions surrounding the child life in the rural and small communities, where unsatisfactory environment hinders education in the elementary schools. Therefore every dollar given represents an increase in the general health and well-being of the community.
The new Tulane University stadium can be emptied in six minutes.

Vanity
There is no microscope so powerful as an injured vanity. Through it one may see the smallest and most unintentional rebuilf or disagreement assistance made visible. Thus its power are wrought with the weeds that men are heir to.
It seems that all of us must possess with an egotism and an easily impaired imagination. By means of the first we expose ourselves to unapprehension and by means of this we pose such often from the imaginative point of view unbearable—we die from a pinit price.
Since we cannot, self-centered mortals that we are, rid ourselves of�any respect or gratitude for our complaining vanity. It has no claim to live; it is guilty on every score. It displaces our墚师, tormenting us and confusing us with confidence and self-respect), and drives away our friends. We lie awake at night while only the sting of which only sting the more for being small or old. We find ourselves unequivocal about our needs in the day of the mall for the insults inside it pours into our ear. We lose sight of how important the day is to it and lose our self-respect if we do not give it the lie. And our devious accusations, the chants that its spurious accolades, the chant
workers,envies and hypocrites. We should apply the balm of compassion to our injuries caused by vulnerability that they may be slight and vulnerable.

Nowadays it's a
seven-Sunday week
BACK in 1890 a man perhaps dressed up on Sunday, yet gave little thought to his week-day appearance. Now a man has to look his best all the time—from an appearance standpoint, it's Sunday every day.
Yet there's no need to increase the wardrobe. Let our dry cleaning service keep all your suits always looking like new. You are judged by your appearance every day—frequent dry cleaning will give you a "Sunday best" look seven days a week.

Many young men tell us this is exactly their idea of what an overcoat should be. A style that's loose and easy enough for comfort, with just enough shaping to give a very dressy effect. You'll like it best in the smoother finished fabrics, in subdued shades and weaves. We have some fine ones: warm, serviceable rich looking.
