K. U. STUDENTS! WELCOME
MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 12, 1921
To a year of unrecedented prosperity, K. U. welcomes, today, her 1921-22 students, old and new. And no student, whatever his classification could possibly choose a more auspicious time than this to attend the University of Kansas, recently characterized by a Harvard man, now in educational work, as an institution rapidly becoming one of the strongest in the country.
K. U., is alive with a new spirit finer still than her famous "old spirit." Many of her already well-established departments have made improvements either in the number of courses offered or in the faculty, which will mean a bigger, more sympathetic and comprehensive presentation of the best to be had toward the practical and efficient development of Kansas students. Greater classroom and laboratory facilities have been added to help make these advances possible.
Last year, the University gained an impetus in her athletics which, supplemented by the enthusiastic interest and satisfaction in the new stadium, now in process of construction, must sell a fine year in the field of intercollegiate sports.
Not satisfied to enlarge the scope of her work by departmental changes alone, the University has also provided this year for a long-felt need by creating a School of Religion with its first classes scheduled to begin Thursday, simultaneously with those of the father Schools.
K. U. BIG SISTERS
Young women who are coming to Mount Aureol as students for the first time have already begun to learn what Big Sisters in general, K. U. Big Sisters in particular, can mean to a stranger in a strange land. A white arm band with the blue triangle is the badge of greeting which, since Thursday of last week, has been assuring prospective Little Sisters of the service and friendship of K. U. Y. W. C. A. women.
To the Big Sister chairman and her captains of this year is due credit for one of the finest plans of organization of the work yet carried out in the K. U. Big Sister movement. From the moment the new woman steps off her train until she will have attended the first meeting of all her classes the Big Sisters are carrying on an intensive campaign against loneliness and homeiness, with definite plans of a continuous offensive the rest of the year.
To prevent as far as possible the disappointment and distress brought about by confusion of rooms, groups of Big Sisters are meeting every train and helping in the matter of getting located. During the period of registration and enrollment from Saturday until Wednesday, "the Cheer Squam" is
holding forth at the Dean's office to shorten the hours of waiting there. Another squad is helping solve problems arising at the Information Bureau in the Gymnasium. Still other squads are making a card index of the new women and helping bring them and their Big Sisters together.
There is scarcely a doubt that by csob ffl
all these efforts combined with the help of a practical learn, regarding the life of a K. U. woman on the campus, sent during the summer to girl high school graduates all over the state, the Big Sisters will more than justify their organization in its purpose to make the vital first few weeks an interesting and happy time instead of the grinding, disconsolate time it might otherwise be.
STILL AN IRISH SITUATION
After a season spent exchanging ultimatum England has finally sent a reply to Ireland that, many believe, will bring the Irish situation to a close.
The last letter to Ireland, sent after a lengthy session of the English cabinet, invites Mr. De Valera to send delegates to a conference to take place Sept. 20.
England only imposes one condition in her invitation that Ireland must remain in the Empire. So far it has been England who has reluctantly conceded one point after another, but if Ireland attends this conference, although she is assured complete independence within the federation of the Empire, the right of freedom will be lost.
The present difficulty does not lie so much in the right of England to rule Ireland as a domination but in the uncompromising attitude of those who insist upon a republic or nothing, and of those who have only abuse for Irish aspirations. As long as Sinn Foin leaders insist upon complete freedom and British royals feel that England's honor is smirched by compromising with the Irish, letters may follow ultimatum and the present deadlock will continue.

Three things that save you money on fall clothes
2 Hart Schaffner & Marx quality
1 A general price reduction of 34%
3 Our very narrow margins of profit
CLOTHING prices are reported by the Department of Labor to be 34% less than they were one year ago. That's worth while The fine quality that Hart Schaffner & Marx puts into their clothes saves for you because it lasts longer. And because we want to get prices lower yet, we're selling on as small a margin of profit as we can get by with.
You'll find we've effected some big economies for you here this fall. The values will please you
