Born in New York, United States, under the month of March 1975. Graduated from the Navy and on board marines to students in such schools as Naval Institute, Scripps School of Karma, from the press of the University of Kansas. The Daily Kanan aims to picture the undergraduate life of the University of Florida as one in which she may wave the mire by standing for the ideal ideals; to be chaotic, to be cheerful; to be shrewd to conquer; to learn to serve to teach; to serve to its ability to serve to its community. The golden rule of boarding house enquête seems to be that to him who grabs shall be given and from him who is politie shall be taken away.

U. 25 and 66 SUNDAY, OCTOBER 14, 1923 THE JAYHAWKER It is to one's sentimental self that the year book of the University most appeals. Memories are caught with the camera and word, and transferred to the printed page, where in the years to come the University which is will look back upon the University which was. For, after all, the students themselves are the University. Associations teeming with a thousand and one experiences of the past are caught between the covers of the University annual to be viewed at lecture by the graduate. Nothing can take its place. And nothing can bring back such a flood of memories. They have discovered a coal shortage in Paragonia. Did ours escape? FORD AND HIS DAM Whether Henry Ford should be said the Gorgas steam plant of the Muscle Sharks project is a moot question. Three factors, however, which weigh heavily in the economic balances in favor of the Detroit manufacturer, stand out in the controversy. Muscle Shads can be made, as Ford says he intends to make it, into an admirable source of fertilizing nitrates which can be supplied to the farmer of the East and of the Middle West, now working land poor in the elements necessary to the growth of wheat and corn, at a reasonable price. Secondly, the project rationed out piece-meal to a dozen or more individuals or separate corporations—for the alleged political reason of counteracting the tendency toward too much "industrial concentration"—will amount to little as a great industrial enterprise. And third, Ford's offer covers Muscle Shoals as a whole with the agreement that it should be given entirely to the production of munitions in time of war if the government so desired. Muscle Shanks stands as one of the most important units in the continental power system of the country. Better to have an enterprising capitalist develop it than have it rust from disuse. Kansas City bank robbers are now driving Lawrence taxi-cabs. BOOST THE "C. A.'s" In the same manner that the aver age student leaves his high school social club or football team, he leaves his Hi-Y club to come to the University. It has meant much in his life, and as he looks around for an organization to take its place, he finds the University Y. M. C. A. waiting to welcome him. The woman from the academy, who sound a place for expression in the Y. W., will find, too, the same association on the Hill, a campus Christian organization. Coming into contact with the two groups of men and women, who are essentially the same in purpose, ideals, and good fellowship as the ones at home, the freshman University student suddenly feels himself possessed of an at-home feeling. The Hill is no longer a stranger to him. He "belongs." But that is only one phase of the work done by the Y. M. and Y. W. on the K. U. campus. Outstanding among several services performed by those bodies are the working facilities they offer to the man and woman who wishes to earn part of his way through college. The housing problem, too, they dispose of in the fail of the year with a minimum of trouble to the student. The C. A.'s are continually "on the job," doing a bit of work here and there, keeping the machinery of student activity well-oiled. It is to Edwin Schultz, the new secretary of the Y. M., and to Miss Russ, secretary of the Y. W., that credit goes for the new era in Christian work on the Hill. They were possessed of the vision which interwove the life of the Christian associations and that of the student body inseparably. It is largely to them that K. U. owes its gratitude for the revival of interest in religious subjects. The "mother" of Henley house is bostess every day to as many as a dozen groups of women who go to the association quarters for a social hour or for business. Schultz, when he is not coaching a freshman in the rudiments of behavior on the Hill, is doting his time to coaching the varsity eleven in conjunction with coach "Potty" Clark. The joint Y. M. and Y. W. finance campaign start tomorrow. Givet The man who said the war-tax was going to be taken off theater tickets must have been fond of bed-time stories. THAT SPECIAL 1920—Kansas 20, Nebraska 20 1921—Kansas 0, Nebraska 28 1922—Kansas 0, Nebraska 28 1923—That's the question. Hope springs eternal in the human breast. Ever since that K. U. team of three years ago swept the Cornhusker eleven off its feet in the second half and tied the score, after being beaten into submission in the first period, the Hill each year has hoped against hope for a Kansas victory over Nebraska. It was a team temporarily possessed of the devil, that team of 1920. Going into the fray at the toot of the referee's whistle in the second half—with the score standing twenty points against them, butttressed only by a disheartening attempt at cheering on the part of a spiritless crowd—Glen Kansans proceeded to tear through the enemy line as though it were so much paper. McCook bleachers were a mass of humanity, for the moment drunk with the wine of conquest. "Phog" hold his breath every time Kansas made a gain because simultaneously the bleachers sagged in the dorsal region like a awy-backed horse. Last year Lincoln sent a goodly aggregation of rooters to Lawrence for the annual Kansas-Nebraska game. And they went away with that unexpected-it smile on their faces. Not until the report of the gun from the officials' table ocheed over the duck-shrouded field did the Crimson and the Blue cease the onslaught. That day saw the Kansas never-say-spirit exemplified in the heroic and victorious struggle of *v* Jay-hawk eleven. An eastern company wants a shorter name for "bathing suit." To be consistent, obviously, with the abbreviation of the product. Let's go to Huskerdon on October 20 and wipe that smile off. Make your reservation on that special train now. The literacy tests for voters proposed by Carl Sherman are impossible of realization. There must be a majority vote at elections. LEAVES by W. H.

After standing in the rain at the Creighton game, we are moved to commend the optimistic spirit of the student who rejoiced that the "soaking" came on Saturday night. The Literary Digest If you want a woman to do some thing, tell her not to. In addition to a Georgetown professor's admonition to his students "Don't write poems too offer to young ladies" we might caution, "And don't speak above a whisper in the moon light!" To get up or not to get up? That is the question, every morning, which confronts every student.

There are no shirkers on the job. The 1924 managers have contracted for a much more expensive book than ever before-one which will contain more pages, better paper, and many new features. The price this year will be 50 cents cheaper than heretofore, providing 1900 books are sold prior to February 25, 1924. They will sell for the old price of $5.00 cash, or $5.50 in installments,—but a cash certificate good for 50c will be given with each purchase, redeemable if 1900 books are sold, as agreed. Also, you may get your name stamped on the cover in gold leaf FREE, providing you subscribe by November 15th, and meet the payments as required. They are: $5.00 cash with order; or $2.50 before Nov. 15th, and 3.00 before Dec. 20. You can hardly afford to put off buying before November 15—for after that date the name service costs you 50 cents each Your early purchase will help us make this "A Greater Yearbook to a Greater University."
