THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN
MEMORIAL CAMPAIGN IS TRIUMPH OF IDEAL
So Says W. Y. Morgan of the Hutchinson News, a K. U. Graduate
IS FITTING REMEMBRANCE
No Other Memorial Could be as Appropriate, Says the Kansas Editor
The University of Kansas Memorial campaign is the triumph of an ideal, according to W. Y. Morgan, of the Hutchinson News, a prominent university.
"The former University students are filled with the thought that no memorial can be erected which those who died in service would have appeared once more at our recent articles in the Hutchinson News, "The Stadium will be the center of college athletics for the West. It will be a place for the development of sound bodies, clearer minds, and will be a great gift for the generational needs of our community by a building where the democratic spirit which animated those soldiers will find its way to opportunity for generations to come. It will be a meeting place where former students and active members, faculty and friends
pace where former students and active_members, faculty and friends can meet as members of one great family.
No proposition to erect a marble shaft or a granite monument could appeal to the souls of the sons and daughters of Kansas like these two useful and magnificent expressions of thoughtful remembrance.
"Not only Kansas University students but former students of other colleges and Universities and people who have never entered an institution of higher learning are joining in this financial demonstration and are giving to the fund so worthy planned."

Van Had No Candles For Birthday Cake
Van, official carcaretaker of animals for the department of biological science, celebrated his birthday Sunday. Van says he does not know just how old he is, but feels like he is twenty-one again, as the students are greeting him as cheerfully this fall as they do their classmates.
There was no cake with a wick for each year of his age at Van's birthday celebration, so said. When ureed to impress his real age or to make a guess at it Van intimated that it would be a difficult matter to make a cake large enough to hold candles numbering his total age.

Registrar George O. Foster reports that the Student Loan Fund is going to come in mighty hand this year for many who would otherwise be com-mitted to taking a matter of finances is showing itself to be more critical than last year.
Registrar Foster has already had several calls by students who have enrolled for the semester. "Many have informed me that they will need considerable assistance if they are to stay in school," said Mr. Foster. "The Loan Fund is provided to help you find some work to do that will enable him to get on his feet again and pay back the loan with interest."
The pledges made during registration usually amount to two hundred dollars each year, according to Mr. Foster, and this amount is usually swelled considerably during the course of the year. The amount pledged this year will have been ascertained by Wednesday. Anyone wishing to contribute to this fund may do so at the office of the Registrar.

Historic Kaw River Steamboat "Lightfoot of Quindaro," Rests Someplace in Bottom of River
"Chut-" guarantees your cleaning
The steamer was built by Thaddeus Hyatt of New York, an enthusiastic friend of Kansas, who saw in the Kansas river possibilities of an inland New York harbor and set about to put the boats on the stream. He worked with others to proudly bearing, across its stern these words: "Lightfoot of Quindaro." It was 100 feet in length and twenty-four feet beam, with a hold of three or four feet, and had no texas. The pilot house was the only structure above the hurricane deck. There were several staterooms.
Those were the days when Quindare and Lawrence flattered themselves into believing they were destined to become "seaports" or at least ports of entry for cheaply freighted goods.
Rumors of a ferry to ply between Quinandar and Parkville, Mo., remind the older settlers of Kansas City of the days of the steamer "Lightfoot," the first boat built for Kansas, in whose honor the famous old Kansas City, "Sacramento," was fired at Lawrence, in recognition of the formal opening of steamboat navigation on the Kaw.
The first and only trip the steamer
ever made began at Wyandotte April 14, 1857, and ended on a sandbar May 9 of the same year.
Among the first passengers was John Spier, Lawrence, who was returning from the east. Spier was carrying a Bible, Tribute, Reporting the trip he wrote:
"On April 7, 1857, the steamboat 'Lightfoot', built expressly for the Kaw river trade, arrived at Lawrence landing at the foot of New Hampshire street, loaded with freight and passengers. It was considered the great event in the history of Lawrence. Captain Bicker-
ton was on hand with his favorite cannon, 'Old Sacramento', to fire a national salute in honor of the formal opening of steamship naviga-
"The voyage from Wyandotte to Lawrence lasting three days, partly in consequence of a strong headwind which blew down the steamer's snunkstacks and forced her to bear a big walnut tree over Sunday."
The boat remained at Lawrence in few days and then it undertook to return to Wvandotte. Its bones, it is, are resting in the Kansas river.
