Retained an second-class male master secretary in 1903, and a first-class member of the ad hoc board at 1857. Keanu, Kaanu and Mr. Bone were on Sundays morning by students, and on Sunday evening by faculty members, from the press of the department.

Judging by the reported expenditure for gas, the "inflationists" and "dollitionists" must have transferred flight from the currency to the army balloon service.
WIZARDS THAT DIE
C. P. Steinmueh, electrical wizard of the world, is dead, and his body lies in statz in his old home in New York. Scientists from the farthest parts of the world will regret his death, for he was the sort of whom but one is born in a century.
He began life in America as an immigrant boy. He rose to be acknowledged the master of electricity, and mathematics.
He has contributed much to the cause of science, and though he, like all wizards, must eventually die, the world is the better for having produced such men as he.
An American natural scientist reports the proof of the existence of dinosaur eggs in the wilds of Mongolia. That's nothing—one can find eggs older than that in any cold storage plant.
CONVERSATION IS CONVERSATION ----ranks among the greatest, the Messiah.
There has been some talk during the last year of changing our system of marking up the days and instituting a new calendar—to be called the Liberty calendar.
That is, some of them do. The rest sit around and comment. And a lot of them just sit.
What is needed is someone who can put more than twenty-four hours into one day. Most students seem to need such an arrangement.
Some are overworked, and some work over time—doing nothing.
Last week two typical college students were sitting in front of a typical fireplace. Hair was the subject of conversation. The possessor of the hair was an intimate friend of both men. But his style of wearing it did not seem to please either of them.
And the comments flowed freely.
And time went on.
And the point of the conversation if there was one, was lost in the rush
There is a gentle art of conversation which has to do with parliaments and tenses and the like. It is well to be able to defend one's self properly in this regard.
But it is an art.
Conversation is conversation but words are a crime.
Stylists decree suits with button-holeless lapels. The 1924 political campaign is about to begin.
COME. LET US SING
Over three hundred voices have been gathered together in Lawrence this fall toward the shaping of a community chorus.
Deep bass vies with the less mature voices of University students in producing a harmonious whole. Business men, teachers and mothers with their high school boys and girls all attend, striving toward the production of that grand oratorio which
Always in time of war a country turns to the stirring notes of martial music; so in time of peace does it hunger for that which lifts it from the daily monotony of work to the higher realms of spiritual satisfaction.
A community chorus can serve just such a need in a city the size of Lawrence. Here there is an exceptional group of talent to draw from and both townpeople and those of the University are supporting the chorus enthusiastically.
Lawrence and the University are doing their bit toward making the country a "singing nation."
A New Yorker is endeavoring to find the place to begin in an effort to raise educational standards in America. We suggest that he begin with the salary appropriations committee of the state legislatures.
NATURE WILL OUT
To us who have quit the joys of rambling over hills and through woods, and denied ourselves the beauties of the out-of-doors for the austerity of the classroom, nature finds diverse ingenious ways of bringing the signs that summer is past and autumn come again.
Even from the portals of the university we cannot help but notice great squadrons of ducks and geese, wheeling and turning in unbelievable union in their fligh3 before the oar of runn4, wester of their summer feeding grounds, and despoiler of their northern refuges.
Bundled-up farmers smoking big, comfort-loading pipes pass us every day with wagon loads of apples and pumpkins destined for market fresh, spicy pumpkin pies appear on our menu, and elder and doughbuns
noble danger or our entertainments.
Every morning on way up the map,
they ask me what I am trying to warm up the old family ear,
while the kiddies dance up and down shouting, "Oooh- oooh! Ain't it cold!" as they want to be taken to school.
Even on our scientific, materialistic campus, trees and ivy have undergone lovely transformations, and we puse in wonder at the gorgeous beauty of the valleys of the Kaw and Wakurasu, unfolding from Hill to the horizon. The few of us who strike out for the open place early on Saturday mornings, run in hand, are greeted by a shimmering sheet of frost, stretching as far as the eye can see.
Kilbrother writes us that he caught eight muskrats and five 'possums last week, and that Dad got his fingers frost-brittle while: he was shuckin' orn down by the creek.
Nature will out.
Lloyd George is going back to England "fortified in his ambitions to recapture the British premiership." That's what Coca Cola will do for you!
Last year the faculty of the department of public speaking had two members; this year it has three. This 50 per cent increase in the teaching force of what should be one of the most important departments In the College is very gratifying and we are justly proud of it.
Campus Opinion
We would not criticize the powers that determine all things—only question. And perhaps we should not feel that we have been sighted—if we have been leened more in need of marriages than we. Who knows?
In the Kansas State Agricultural College, for instance, five teachers are employed speaking K. U. has won a majority of the decisions in the public speaking contests which have been held with Manhattan, but this is certainly not due to the relative lack of instruction furnished by the state.
But flattering that this intramural comparison may be, if we examine the situation in other states, we are not so prone to boast.

These authors, and the word is a compliment to them, are doing well—from the booksseller's point of view. They have produced a class of reading which brings to mind the old idiom "interfereing if true."

The true colligon knows that the truth, in the real sense of the word, is solemn to be found in those who have studied at his student life at our higher institutions.
It is the duty of the true student to right the false impressions which are being fed to a public which has been misunderstood, considering the real side of affinity.
Sensationalism has long been well known in the field of journalism, but before it becomes too prominent in mainstream discourse, it should be carved. The writers should be righted.
On the K. U. sude of the Stadium Saturday sat a man and his wife who attracted not a little bit of attention. He was strong for the Agnies and she was in favor of Kanze. When the Agnies would make a good play he would wedge her and she would that good playing! She would move over a little and tort. "O, shut up," or "You make me tired!"
When the K. U. rooters were parading in Lincoln before the Neruda game, a small boy who was standing on the sidelines yelled to one of his companions, "Look, Johnny, look! Here comes the down!" (It was the Ku Kus he referred to.)
Plain Tales From The Hill
A woman who was a guest at the editorial association meeting was assigned by one of the girls in her group to bring to a room at the Sig Ep house.

The Aggies wanted to feel at home in Lawrence so they brought their cow-bells with them. From the showing they made at the game perhaps it would help some if we would get some cow-bells.
Our idea of a cheap guy is one who buys a meat meal ticket at one of the tall cares at the audent ten meter only uses it who wants cokes.
There's a justly indignant freshman on the Hill—and there's a reason. She wrote a theme for one of her friends in her rhetoric class and when the papers were returned, the friend found an A on hers while the generous-hearted freshie was given only a C.
In a recent number of the Kansan a Jayhawker "ad" entitled "Memories," appeared. It said "Ten years from now you'll be sorry if you haven't something to remember your Alma Mater by.' But the accompanying illustration showed a man seated in an arm-chair reading—not a Jaya-hawker—but the evening paper.
One of the married men on the Hill (we didn't say a professor) lost his false teeth one day last week. He looked high and low for them and then took off his shoes to the kitchen when his wife had been using them on a mark pie crust with.
"Anyone who would read a 450 page book, of which 300 pages are devoted to describing Kansas scenery, has my profound sympathy," said one of the Education teachers in speaking of a Kansas novel.
A number of Aggie students were记着 to remark, "K. U. surely has first spfi." It means a lot to have say that we played the best game.

The identity of Miss Cynthia Paige, feature and etiquette writer for the Indians Daily Student, was purchased as that of Ben Wells, a graduateinee law professor. Just four students played detective for a month before discovering him.
At a recent convention of the Women's League in Utah, a "Troublesome Club" was reported. Her formal engagement makes a woman vulnerable for membership. The purpose of the club is that the young women must face numerous problems with others like the interested, for mutual benefit.

How Parker Prevents Leaking
In Ways Other Pens Cannot Follow
*Read this—then try the new Parker D. Q, made for Students only*, §3
GEC. S. PARKER entered the fountain pen business to discover two vital remedies for leaking. They are:
The Parker 'Lucky Curve' feed, created and patented by Mr. Parker, which induces capillary attraction, thus making a steady flow through the skin and back the unused ink when you're through.
The Parker "Duo-Suave" Cap which forms an ankle-tight sleeve with the barrel when kept tightly sewn.
These two engineering achievements are built in all Parker pens regardless of price. The new Parker D. Q. the special pen made for students only—has, in addition, an extra large ring to link to your note-book, or a pocket-clip—with one included free. Also a metal girdle that reinforces the cap.
It's produced by Parker Duofold craftsmans. Its point is 14k gold, tipped with Native Iron, polished to jewel-like smoothness. Measured by all standards, it's far the finest pen value ever produced under $5. You'll miss the newest thing out if you fail to ask for it.
