WELCOME HOME, NEBRASKA
The action of the officials of the Missouri Valley conference in readmitting Nebraska into the conference last Saturday by a unanimous vote should be a benefit to all parties concerned. The Huskers need the rest of the Valley schools and the conference needs the Huskers. There was some fear expressed before the Kansas City meeting that there might be hard feelings between certain conference members and the Nebraskans, but if such was the case the difficulties were ironed out before the meeting and every school represented voted favorably on the Nebraska request.
Had Nebraska chosen to remain out of the conference in order to play an annual football game at Omaha, athletic interest at the Lincoln school undoubtedly would have declined. For a year or two big sectional games have kept the interest alive but before they had been out of the Valley fold many years the experience of Michigan when it left the "Big Nine" would have been repeated. The students at the Wolverine school did not care a great deal for the sectional games but wanted the old time contests with Chicago, Wisconsin, Illinois and Minnesota. The result was that Michigan dropped from a strong athletic school to a weak one. The same fate probably would have greeted the Huskers.
The return of Nebraska at this time has brought up a problem, however, and Nebraska may be forced to cance several football games that have been scheduled for next year. The Huskers arranged their schedule in the expectation that they would not have to live up to the Valley rule requiring all athletic contests to be staged or college fields. If these games are canceled, however, the Huskers will likely be able to fill the vacancies with Missouri Valley games and the action of the Huskers in withdrawing last December will have kept them out of only the spring championship races this year.
OLD CLOTHES, YES, BUT—
The overall movement was started by prominent overall manufacturers in an attempt to increase the demand for their product. This is the generally accepted idea of the movement. The price of overalls is being hiked to the highest point that the public will stand. Laborers who really need the product will be forced to double the price that they formerly paid for the clothing. This is merely working a fad to the detriment of the laboring class, as has been done many times in the past.
THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN
The idea of thrift and saving that should be instilled in prosaic American mind is that they should not be so particular in their choice of the clothes in which they appear on the street.
Patched clothes, clothes that show considerable age or a large amount of service to the owner, should be hailed as the model of American thriftiness.
Army clothes, the clothes which served our boys in the trenches, should be again taken up by the man who have them.
RAH FOR THE GLEE CLUB
The Men's Glee Club is touring central Kansas this week giving concerts at Topke, Marion, Herington, council Grove, and Junction City.
This is the first week-long trip a University glee club has made out over the state for several years. The men of the club should be congratulated on the energy and enterprise which has made this trip possible.
The club has been doing very creatively work this year, appearing in excellent concerts both here and at other places. The splendid, active Gleeblue club, such as ours, one of the best assets a university can have, and every individual on the Hill should feel that he owes a personal debt of gratitude to the men who have thus devoted their time and talent that their school may enjoy the benefits derived from such an organization.
Campus Opinion
Regarding The Prom
After a big party on the Hill, it i almost a universal custom for every one to "gather about" and enumerate the good and bad points of saint party. In these gatherings is always party managers benefit of the double and says "it was a pretty nice party." In these gatherings is always to be found, also, the perpetual kicker, who can pick the party to pieces in such scatching fashion that there is nothing to be said for the party when he gets
When the kicker is all alone in criticism, no attention is paid to him. But when there is a party and each and every one comes home dissatisfied and discontented, something is wrong, and it isn't with the kickers. Last fall, Junior Prom, alleged to be the niceest and most formal party given yearly on Mount Oread, was held in Rhinolomgymnasium. Each couple was admitted after he had been up at the door for $5. When they had managed to get past the "rascals" at the door, they were greeted by about 400 other such couples. If they were lucky they perhaps got onto the floor where the "select 400" were struggling each to maintain his square foot of space. By saying of Prom, they wended their way to the upper floor, where
Disappointed.
Five dances for $5. That is a pretty expensive party, isn't it? And how about the poor folk who did not know that the poor fool knows it, kicking about "getting jipped" and "hold up" and "the prom managers must have made a big haul off of that party," etc., etc. Nothing is to be said in favor of the party, except that the good food is good music when you can't find room in which to dance? This fine Junior Prom, the "hever given," as it was advertised, with its "limited number of couples," was a fine big struggle, and it is certain that will be easy to go out the Junior Prom next year.
For more than a month the pool in Robinson Gymnasium has been out of use because of a leak, and recent reports coming from the department of physical education state that it will be closed line before swimming can be resumed.
Don't Go Near the Water!
Students who enjoy aquatic sports should not become impatient. Those in charge of the gymnasium have been spending long hours of hard work to put the pool in shape again. The leak is a large one, almost the dimensions of a dime, and will require several weeks more to repair. Although only
a small number of students ever swim, all other work has been dropped while attention has been concentrated on the getting pool in condition.
While waiting for the aquarium to be reopened, we would suggest that those who are unable to forgo their daily swim to make up for it, cool down at least not very much more so than in the pool at times, and with numerous dredging sand drainings there can no question as to its cleanliness. And the proximity of the lake to the grass eliminates any need for both houses.
While those in charge are to be congratulated for their earnest endeavors to have the pool in shape by the time school opens next September, they also are fortunate an important host so long as the students have Potter to rely upon. Hickory Jim.

The Women's Medical Association is studying mental telepathy. Is the women's interest merely academic, or have they caught the craze?

Courtesy, they say, is becoming a lost art. The blame is placed on everything from prohibition to woman suffrage. It may be true that a few men are more polite when their spirits are artificially stimulated, or when they feel that they are getting the best of the women some other way, but, happily, these are not the reason for the decrease in courtesy as far as man is concerned. Courtesy is becoming a lost art it is because it is often lost on those who receive it.
A prominent physician was recently called to his telephone by a colored woman formerly in the service of his wife. In great agitation the woman advised the physician that her youngest child was in a bad way.
COURTESY—A LOST ART
Women who are worrying about seats on a crowded street car after they get the vote should remember that if she ever is in obtaining courtesy. The girl who neglects to say "thank you" when a door is opened for her should be allowed to open her own doors as well. The man suffrage — Evening Missourian suffrage. —Evening Missourian

This is one of the most attractive homes in Lawrence, one of the most beautiful in the State of Kansas and will sell in a few days after it is advertised, but I will give $500.00 when the sale is completed.

I own and offer for sale the pro-
perty of your house. The Northwest,
which has been the Dean Templin home for many years. There are 13 acres in the tract it is in a class by itself for size, location, beauty, everything which makes for the desirableity of a home. Anyone would be proud to owe it and to occupit it. If we were cut up into介级-sized lots it would make over 150 lots after allowing for streets and
The place is so large that the buyer could subdivide it and sell off many splendid building sites, but it is so charming in its variety and completeness that I feel it should be kept in location and preserved to the city in its future.
You can easily see that all of the property Northwest and West of the Campus lies directly in the line of growth of the student quarter of the city. Just this winter several members of the team will be joining this place on the southwest and when they begin building and houses go up in the field that lies between my place and the Stubbs home and the big Sig Aliph house, my 13 acres will be "inside property" and be worth considerably more than now.
When you try to sell this place you will not have to exaggerate. It is just as good as you will say it is. Look at the house. It's a small house of any other private grounds anywhere as beautiful as these. Get acquainted with the peace you want to sell. No, I don't mean for each one of four thousand of you to go tramping over the lawn and bothering the girls on the property. It is bounded on the north by Tenth St., on the east by Missouri St., which is paved, it follows the old country road around on the south and includes the healthy young orchard on the top of the hill. The west line runs north as far as the footpaths to Joggs Street, the Gov. Stubs路.
The house has two floors and basement, nine rooms, furnace, gas, water splendid "honey" fire places that actually draw, and a view which justifies my price of $30,000.00. No trades will be considered except on actual cash basis. All of the things that does not comply with interest. Terms will on interest. Interest on deferred payments will depend on the length of time the notes run.
