Entered as second-class mail matter September 17, 1910, at the post office at Lawrence, Kansas, unde the act of March 3, 1879. Published in the afternoon evening a week by students in the Department of Statistics of the fini University of Kansas on the press o the Department of Journalism Address all communications to THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN Lawrence, Kansas Phones, K.

The Daily Kaanan aims to picture the life of Kananan in Kanaan; to go for the daim merely printing the news by standing for the ideas andvoices; to be clean; to be cheerful; to be chaotic; to be funny; to have more serious problems to viseer headers; in all to keep students of the University. TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 30, 1920 VICTORY IN DEFEAT My library was dukedom large enough.—Shakespeare. We were beaten, yes. But no one blames the team; no one whispers that the coaching staff "was all wrong"; and no one can say that K. U. students were not behind their team. Missouri beat us fair and square and we have no kick coming. It was the better team who won the game. All honor to the Jayhawks. There is not a one of them who did not fight his best to the last; and when a team goes down to defeat honorably, with the "never give up spirit" there is Little to be said except in praise. No one who has been down to McCook field this year and watched "Phog" Allen, "Serubby" Laskett and "Ad" Lindsey working with the men can doubt that they too, gave their best. The Nebraska game proved that beyond a doubt. The coaching staff deserves the praise of the entire student body. The 1920 foot ball season has ended, not distractedly, but triumphantly. Defeats can be overcome when a team has the right kind of fight and spirit back of it. It is something Kansas teams have been lacking—a spirit to come back. But this year it was different—we did come back with the "fight." Therefore, the 1920 football season has ended triumphantly; there is something new in the air; so look out next year Missouri. LETS GET ACQUAINTED Have you ever stopped to think while you were in class, how many of those sitting around you, you know even speak to or how many you care to know. Don't forget that we are all up here for the same purpose (at least presumedly so) of getting an education. Some people have gone to the same class for a whole semester and never know who was in the class except a few intimate friends. In one case one student did not know what his professor's name was until the Million Dollar drive began. Speak to your classmates whether you know them or not, and get acquainted, for it is from those around us that we learn our greatest lessons. THIS IS SERVICE Some of the replies and information received by students of the School of Engineering, who recently visited the local carpenter's union, are very illuminating as to what a great many people living in Lawrence think of the University. The general trend of opinion among the tradesmen seemed to be that the University had always held itself aloft from those who were not so fortunate as to be immediately connected with it; and that there had ever been the spirit of cooperation existing between certain classes of labor and college students when it might have been beneficial to both. "There is no doubt," said one of the members of the union, "that we can give many engineering students a lot of advice that will be useful to them in a practical way; and that they, in their turn can do much for us in the higher branches of mathematics." That such a movement has been started on the Hill between certain engineering classes to cooperate with the local mechanics is commendable. The different members of the union without exception were eager and willing to accept the assistance of the students who would be able to advise them on difficult technical questions. This willingness to cooperate on the part of the students with the mechanics both astounded and pleased them. And after all, it is no more than fair that these men should share in a minor way some of the benefits of the institution since they as a class over the entire state, contribute a great deal to its maintenance. CARRY ON The first of the holiday vacations is over and football has retired as the chief actor in the play of student interests. In its place nothing is left of outstanding importance other than the routine of lessons and assignments. THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN Strange to say, the average student neglects, rather than attacks more ambitiously, his studies during the three-week period between Thanksgiving and Christmas. He takes the "what's the use" attitude toward his lessons, reasoning that with the long Christmas vacation coming on, and breaking in on the regular lesson program he might as well wait until it is over before finally buckling down to a last terminated semester finish. Instead of eaming up on your lessons during the intervacational period, hit them all the harder. Then after the long Christmas vacation, you will be prepared to make a consistent finish to the semester's work, with a good grade, and a practical knowledge of an object as a reward. CLASS CUTTING VS. SCHOLARSHIP From the promiscuous class cutting this semester, two conclusions may be drawn, first that the student is disobeying the mandate that came from the dean of the college a few weeks "Pigs is Pigs" Thinks Grad Who Raises'en ago- or else he is indifferent to the work that he is doing in his classes. Some of those who are cutting their classes will in nine cases out of ten receive "funhus" at the end of the semester, and wonder why. Never before has class cutting been so generally practiced as it has this year. The end of the semester is near and the chances for "make-up" are poor. Though a student is doing excellent work, unexcused absences will bring down his grades. If the student fails, he will say that the professor was a stift one and would not come half way, but if he is at class where he should be, there will be little excuse for poor work. "Pigs is pigs" thinks Miss Jutta Mosse of Leavenworth, last year a student in the University. She raises pigs, pure-bred Chester Whites, for a pastime, and a profitable one she finds it, too. She makes a most satisfactory business partner for her of the fat of all the viciliorous eleven of '08. Miss Mosse's mother also 'a K. U. graduate. As to her future occupation, Miss Mose says that she is hovering between bacteriology and hog-raising as her choice. Initiating "porkers" into hog-hog seems to have its advantages, she says. To Talk on Puzzles Professor J. C. Peterson, head of the department of psychology at Kansas State Agricultural College will speak to the psychology classes at 10:30 o'clock Friday morning on the subject of "The Use of General Intelligence Tests." These mental tests are given all freshmen at the Agrilife Institute and Peterson will also lecture the Psychology Club at 4 o'clock in room 109 East Ad. The subject will be "The Nature of Puzzles."

You may be right. The world may not be so good as it used to be. Yet peaches are just as good as they used to and sunsets are just as beautiful. One never has so many friends that another one doesn't matter. Doctor Devine, of New York City, will address the students of the University of Kansas at the Convection room on Monday, at Robinson Gymnasium. There are a lot of tongue waggers, but it is the good listeners that get along best in this old world of ours. Poisonous Snakes No More Dangerous It is true that we are living in a terrible age, an age that is filled with industrial wars and disturbances. But let us be calm and console ourselves with the thought that we are still making History. ANNOUNCEMENTS The Texas rattlers at the Museum and their companions the coach whips and black snakes have been chlorformed and put to bed for the winter in big glass jars containing a strong solution of formaldehyde. They lived hard, and they died hard and probably will have little care for them. The peculiar fact that certain non-poisonous snakes are immune from venom of poisonous snakes lies in the composition of their blood which possesses a venom secreted from the salivary glands, which if not equally as poison as snake venom is at least a opponent against poisonous snake bites. The Coffee County Club will meet in room 205, Fraser, Tuesday, Nov. 9, at 7:45 o'clock. Important. When a snake's fang is lost by a natural process it is replaced within a few days by one of a succession of fangs located back in the snake's eye. The mature fang of a snake is hollow like a hypodermic needle and the venom glands by means of a duct that terminates in a split outlet near the point of the fang. Snake venom introduced into the artery causes internal hemorrhages and almost instant paralysis of heart activity. The venom can be used to heart that it is so generally used as a reagent against snake bite poison. At the same time most persons overlook the vital fact that an overdose of whisker depresses rather than stimulates the heart action and in so doing destabilizes the dawning effects of snake venom. Chancellor Lindley will address the Graduate students in Fraser Hall Strychnine has exactly the opposite effect upon the heart action as snake venom; in strychnine poisoning the heart beats itself to death; in snake bite poisoning it slows down and if a sufficient quantity reaches it at once the heart is paralyzed. It is therefore of the greatest importance to accept, by observing the pulse of the victim, another or of the has received a shot of the snake venom, for if the snake has bitten him without releasing any poison, strychnine, as a stimulant would prove chapel Tuesday evening, November 30, at 8 o'clock.
