STUDENT SUNDAY OCTOBER 9
Churches Prepare for Large Student Attendance
Next Sunday will be Student Sunday at all the churches in Lawrence. That decision was the outcome of a meeting of the Council of Religious Workers last night, according to Dr. Arthur Braden, President of the Council and Dean of the School of Religion.
Next Sunday all the churches in Lawrence will be concentrating their efforts upon the one idea of getting the student into vital relation with the church. All the churches in Lawrence have what is called a student membership plan which provides that a student may retain membership in his home church and at the same time hold a student membership in
time into a student membership
one of the Lawrence churches.
"It is my opinion after eight years of experience at the University of Kansas during which time I have made a very careful study of student life, that there is no one thing a student can do that will safeguard his ideals and at the same time act as a moral and spiritual tonic to his life more than that of tying himself definitely in active association with one of the Lawrence churches," said Dr. Braden this morning.
Student Directory Copy Still Open for Additions
Those who have failed to report their correct addresses should give them to the Registrar at once. The copy for the Student Directory has gone to the State Printer today for publication, but changes or additions in addresses and telephone numbers can be made if they are in the hands of the Registrar Thursday of this week. Every student is urged to cooperate in making this Directory complete and accurate.
It is estimated that the publication will have been completed in two weeks and it will be placed on sale. The place of sale will be announced later.

FRENCH PRAISE RECENT BOOK
Alumnus Attracts Attention of Eminent Authorities
Stuart Henry, A., B. *81*, has attracted the attention of eniment Frenchmen with his new book "French Essays and Profiles", a volume dealing with the lives of prominent persons on the French capitals.
In a letter under date of August 4, Emile Boutroux, the prominent Frenchman, writes to Stuart Henry:
Writes Fredric Masson, distinguished French historian, "I have quite well known most of the men and women of whom you write and I appreciate the solidity of your judgments. I should hope that you French intimacies your compatriots may enjoy our old French life."
The clump of willow trees directly north of the Varsity shed uses by multitudes of Lawrence boys as reserved seats during football and baseball games done by were on the field to make way for the field of the new Stadium.
"I rejoice in the efficacy of a like your 'French Essays and Profiles' which may aid in bringing to light the possibilities of our two peoples comprehending and loving each other."
Old Tree-Top Seats Gone From McCook
An elderly man employed by the UniY Construction Company was basly engaged the latter part of yesterday afternoon mining the roots of these trees with dynamic which will send these "box seats" of a generation of Lawrence juvenile enthusiasts to destruction.
This with other radical changes, which have taken place will bring forth a typical a la Briggs "when a feller needs a friend" situation among the younger male population of Lawrence.
There will be no board-fence knot holes to peek through, no tight holes to crawl through nor no trees to climb. A climber will just naturally pay or take a long distant look at the game from the south hill, but can enjoy a football game, when he can't tell who the players are and what they do? The only possible left button for this feller to do is to dig up if he wishes to see these games in the future.

Dean Dyer and Dean Blitz Take Charge of Men and Women Meetings
K. U. SPIRIT EMPHASIZED
Unified School Spirit and Demo cracy Urged for a Greater K. U.
Dean Dyer then took the floor and gave the main address.
"Traditions" was the theme presented to fifteen hundred men students in Robinson Cymbium this summer by John E. Dipver, dean of men.
After a thundering Rock Chalk, Elwis White, president of the Men's Student Council, opened the meeting with a short address in which he mentioned its purpose and the many K. U. students and their value to the University.
"The whole world is governed by convention and tradition," said Dean Dyer. "The army will permit some slain man, but it has never tolerated a woman." The poor local lance was founded on the tradition that slavery must die.
“K. U. has fine traditions.” The thing that should mean most here should be friendship among every student. If the professors will permit me, I shall place friendship first and scholarship second. Because I would without spiritualism-Youth is incurably idealistic and traditionalized."
Dean Dyer then spoke of the splendid spirit behind the football team. "There is none of that bought and paid spirit in athletics where that dominates some schools. I also like the Engineer-Law scrap (tradition). I hope it will never disappear." Cheers and laughs greeted this statement
"I sympatize with the bummaddians and commend their conduct at Washburn. They worked ten hours overtime to save $1,03 and support the team. That is ten cents an hour. But how much better would be the tradition that K U. men are worth more than ten cent an hour."
Dean Dyer closed with an entreaty "to always keep the banner of K. U. high, and never let it be dragged in by the enemy." The obligation to do the finer things' obligation to
More than a thousand University women attended the women's convocation in Fraser Hall. The assembly joined in singing several K. U. songs and sang songs of Daliah Dullity down of women, spoke on the subject of school democracy.
"I have heard from other colleges of the spirit of democracy at K. U.," said Miss Blitz. "It has brought to the attention of other schools that the University of Kansas possesses a spirit of good fellowship which stands for unified school spirit. I believe you are living in a day which is better and has far more promise for individual development in school life than ever before. You are living in an era of self government. The time has come that you should be done concerning student affairs. This means that every student who pledges himself and herself to return services that he has received. Those who do not grant this are not democratic.
"I want to urge," concluded Dean Blitz, "that each one uses his mind in his future course of action. You freshmen have four years in which to develop yourselves. What service are you going to render your University? Each one of you has the finest chance to make your University the greatest in the country. How are you going to use it?"
Reports were given by members of the Y. W. C. A. and W. A. A. after which Miss Riske, W. W. secretary, talked of the future work of the Y. W. "All our work is for you to discover the best ability in yourself. There are twelve hundred girls in the University and there is no need for any few girls to do all the work. I want to get acquainted with every one of you. Come over and see if I am not a true Jay Hawk."
The meeting was closed with the singing of "Crimson and the Blue."
