Ruins of Late Conflicts In Dublin to be Rebuil
Kansas State Agricultural College took third place, $15; Bethany College, Tepaek, fourth, $10.
Dublin, (By Mail to United Press).
"The main street of Dublin—O'Connell, if you are a Republican; Sackville, if you are a Unionist—is being shelled. This business section, which was shelled by the British artillery when held by the Republician forces in the Easter Rebellion of 1916, is now being faced with new stores and office buildings.
The people of Dublin look like the houses, some of them fine, but most of them shabby. The children in the streets are frequently without shoes, and there is more begging than in Vienna.
Two bleak scars mark the city. The fine stone post office, the most imposing building on that street, shellied in the Rebellion till nothing but the four gaping walls and a heap of debris within remained. The other is the custom house, burrowed into the earth by the summer, a large stone structure left a rink, with the small domed tower still topped by a sad statue.

Freshman Illusions Soon To Be Shattered; Interior Decorations Are Returning To Native Heaths
Forth from the small towns and out of the city come the myriad of freshmen to the university in search of higher learning, boarding house eats and dancing partners. Sometimes during the first week most of them find entrance into one or more of the various fraternity and sorority houses on the hill. Their inspection shows shining windows, highly polished floors, beautiful draperies and fine rugs. The various fraternities bers are arranged in their best form and numerous high powered cars stand nonchalantly before the carefully groomed lawn. The freshman sees the glamour of the life and judges its exponents to be scions of wealthy and influential families. Only come to freshmen three or four days earlier—what enlightenment would have been yours. These same exquisitely grown girls could have been in nondescript aprons and bedroom slippers industriously wadded up bourgeoisy with hardwood floors plating to their backs, the other plating the polishing cloth.
These blase fraternity men with their smooth hair and air of sophistication—no wonder, freshmen, that you do not guess that these same men have spent the last few days in school. They walk on the front steps and move the lawn.

Men
"I enlisted in the Army on Feb. 15, 1918, in Paris; and in less than 36 hours was behind the big guns of the Field Artillery in the Toul sector. Can any agent come forward from point of enlistment to active service?"

Dyer, newly appointed Dean of Men in a presentation of charter address to charter members of Jayhawk Post No. 3 of the Disabled American Veterans of the World War last night at the Chamber of Commerce room. The organization is comprised of men in the University under the auspices of the Federal Board for Vocational Education. All men agreed that the record of Mr. Dyer was hard to beat. The post was formed this summer by Vocational men, and hopes to sign up as members every man who has been disabled in the service and who has been awarded Vocational Training of War Risk conspenation.
Mr. Dyer was selected to present the charter because he is counselor and advisor to Vocational men, and he is a former soldier.

REGISTRATION TOTAL
Freshmen Numbered 984 at End of Tuesday
The total registration at 2 o'clock this afternoon had reached 3,324. This number will most probably be raised to 3,400 by Saturday evening. At the close of Tuesday, 984 freshmen had registered. The exact figures on freshman registration were obtained by the Registrar estimated that the number of first year students would reach approximately 1,000 by Saturday evening.
This year's total number who have paid their registration dues is practically three hundred greater than the number registered at the time, and then being only 3,182. This proves in substantial measure the statement made by Chancellor Lindley prior to the opening of school, that the enrollment of such schools has been the scarcity of jobs and a kind of work outside of school.
No definite figures are yet available as to the comparative enrollment of men and women, but from reports of those who worked on registration, the men seemed to exceed the women somewhat.

CHANCELLOR OFFERS
FRESHMAN COUNSEL
Warns Against Letting Influences and Day-Dreaming Ruin Life Chances
YELLS FEATURE MEETING
Burst of Enthusiasm and Rivalry Presages Lively Year for University
The fifty-second annual opening All-University Convocation began this morning at 10 o'clock in Robinson Gymnasium with a burst of enthusiasm from more than 2,000 thrones of loyal Jayhawkers, with the Laws and Engineers in attendance to compete. The Fine Arts students promoted a banner and a song with which to announce their presence.
After a "Yea Lindley" Professor Strong opened conversation with the reading of the 24th and 84th Paulus, followed by prayer. Mr. Lindley was a member of the faculty of the School of Fine Arts played two violin selections, the Chanson Poloniewae by Weintowski, and a Bagatelle by Kurtz. He bearly applauded.
Chancellor Lindley opened his annual address to the students of the University this morning with a few homely words of counsel to those here for the first time. He classified men as falling into two classes—the active, or creative type, and the passive, or receptive type.
The Chancellor said: "The passive mind here in the University says: 'What can I do against existing regulations and conditions which confine me and prevent me doing what I should like too do?' Yet life is lived under limitations such as the law of gravity and economic constraints with for the greatest results. Thus, by failing to do this, the passive type meets his Waterloo very early in the University.
"The active mind looks on the conditions that limit him and finds a way to make them effective for his defense. He can win by not the weapons with which to fight win the battle. At one extreme we have the man who always has an excuse for failure, and at the other extreme we have the man who always wins the unexpected victory.
"The passive mind always seeks a retreat from reality as an alibi for his failure to advance in life. He has several alternatives which he uses. One of the most of overworked ones is the ever-present excuse for failures. There is always an excuse ready on the lines of the man who fails.
"Day-dreaming is another retreat from reality. Daydreaming in the University at present is a pretty dangerous sign. Those who cannot win in actual contact with reality, often seek victory in romance and fancy, Students, in your first year don't fall to day-dreaming!"
Another method of retreat from reality is blaming people, conditions, and other outside influences for failure and in relating failure to others. This failure believes that his ill luck is a result of conspiracy instead of being due to the lack of essential skills he has in his job. Business statistics show that a great percentage of these failures are due to the individual himself.
“Unfinishingly meeting the daily task is part of the essential training in the University. I promise you if you face reality with a spirit of mastery every day for thirty days and are then loyal to the habits of the thirty days, you will win out at the end of the first semester—and no arrangement with character. If you disregard this opportunity to start the fight right this first week you do so in terms of your whole future.”
The Chancellor concluded his address by admonishing the first year students to seek friends. He said: "In order to have people like you, you must like them. The University is the greatest disinterested friendship in the world. Friends are made there not for industrial gain only."
"Many are choice about their food —why not be choice about associates. When chosing friends don't forget this faculty—choose in the flash and also in books. Wide reading, out of courses assigned in university,iversity, or industry, modern development and follows the modern trend of education."
After the address, Dean Butler of the School of Fine Arts led in singing the "Alma Mater" and impressed on the freshmen in the University the importance of knowing it by the next convolution when they will sing it by themselves. A rousing Rock Chalk closed the convolution.
