The Owl Board was greatly tempted to raise the price on account of the war but forebore when some member happened to remember that the war had been over and the Owl will not contain any specific secalent section but sprinkled through the pages will be just enough of the risque to add that subtle touch so necessary to all humorous magazines. The whole story of the Owl coming to leave town immediately after the Owl comes out.
No expense has been spared in making this number the best ever. The athletic section will contain photographs of the coaches and of the Kansas team. The cartoons are the outstanding feature of this number and are the work of the best artists on the Hill.

Can Bring Necessary Information to Each Locality, He Says
CHANCELLOR LINDLEY LAUDS COUNTY CLUBS
PAMPHLET TELLS PLANS
Should Get in Touch with Alumni Office at Once and Organize
The organization of County Clubs at the University of Kansas is one of the greatest importance. Working in co-operation these clubs can bring to the people of each locality the necessary information concerning the work and needs of the University. This project also will become better acquainted with all phases of activity of the University and provides means of serving the institution at a most critical time. I sincerely trust that every county may trust that every county reprehive its County Club.
E. H. LINDLEY,
Chancellor
Last night, as you lay a-dreaming or something like that anyway— "Say, I wonder what our county is going to do about organizing."
That was your comment to yourself. The answer to your question is in this announcement which came from the Loyalty Movement Joint Council Committee today: "Don't let them kill you if they have you." The committee has headquarters in the Alumni Office, 112 Fresner, telephone K. U. 9, and has pamphlets how to organize your courty' club already printed and ready to distribute. Consequently, in order to start the all ripping, it is asked that all presidents or other officers of last year's council discuss their own "income" in order that leaders top the procession again.
However sometime this week it is expected that at least one man from every county get these pamphlets, as well as a list of students, from the local school to give it to the club. "As soon as you make up your mind to get active, and be ininstestive service to your University," was the committee's word this morning, "get in touch with the Kan-ter government's announcement of any called meetings."
Sunday, afternoon has been suggested as a good time for organization, but any night this week is also suitable.
"Loyalty, like charity, begins : home, and a hint to the wise—."

Soon the word came down the line, "hold your lead," Eleven sharp, will bring this war to a head, Dream on! they feel us, who can tell them what to do, Listen to them While on the ground about us lay our dead.
Squashing water, musky in our shoes,
Watching more intent, the silvery Meus
And the "bokeh" to give full measure
Just a short time left for them to use.
Elven came, the Foe has promise kept,
"Neverved out," hungry men, broke down and wept,
Dazed by realization deart,
Nervous up a slacker,
Most of them sank to the ground and sleet.

Fourth Roll Call to Start Friday Morning and End Monday Night
RED CROSS WILL BEGIN INTENSIVE DRIVE SOON
Professor Lawson Outlines Post-War Activity of Organization
SOLICITING IS PROHIBITED
The Red Cross drive on the Hill, according to Prof. P. B. Lawson, who has charge of the fourth Red Cross roll call at the University, will be concentrated into two days work. The students will participate and will be finished Monday evening.
“This year,” said Professor Lawson, “we do not intend to do any personal soliciting among the students. There will be deks in every building, and we believe that the students will submit their own ideas about the nature of their hearts. In past years the fund has been raised by personal soliciting, but we have faith in the students of the University to such an extent that we are not going to place them in any embarrassing situation, or even that we receive this fund to their own good will.
"Many people ask us what the Red Crimson is doing since the close of the war. Here are a few of the things that the Red Crimson is doing:
The Red Cross is furnishing two million meals every day to the hungry children in Europe.
Thousands of Red Cross nurses are giving their whole time to look after the sick and needy in American towns. In Lawrence, two red Cross nurses are helping the poor people. There is an old soldier here whose every necessity of life is provided by the Red Cross. He has no one to attend him except these nurses, and there are thousands in every town and city in America.
It extends the first American hand to 9,500 immigrants every day in the port of New York alone. By 1921 it will increase this number will increase to 20,000.
An average of one solider a week is helped by the Lawrence Red Cross Chapter. Every week there are six soliders and Lawrence, and they often need help.
"I want the University students to understand," concluded Professor Lawson, "that the Red Crows is well for war. In battle, there will be a desk where each student can leave his subscription. These desks are to be in charge of the various University clubs, and there will be someone at each of them at every hour during the two days. The faculty and the employees in each building will be personally solicited. One dollar enrolls the student in the Red Cross, the annual sum will be gratuitously accepted."

He walks up behind the inductee and asks him if you walked over it, and shows him a fake diamond ring tied to a band ring. He engages in a conversation concerning the value of the rings and asks the inductee if she wants one, but doesn't want to get in trouble for selling the goods he found.
Yesterday three students got wise and started to take the "can" man to the police station, but he broke away when he had been caught at ten o'clock last night.
