WE HOPE YOU ALL WIN
WE HOPE YOU ARE WE FOR the thirteenth time the University is acting as host to Kansas High Schools in the annual basketball tournament. Athletes are here from all parts of the state and are striving for supremacy in a game of skill, courage and endurance.
The University welcomes you, not only as prospective students of the University but as guests of honor. You have shown the metal from which you were moulded before coming to the tournament and now comes the final test.
In your spare time visit the various departments on the Hill. Learn the names of the buildings and when you go to your homes give your friends your true impression of the school. It will be the business of the students and faculty to see that that impression is a creditible one.
So the University has many places of interest and several unsurpassed exhibitions which you should see before leaving. Ask anyone you see to show you around. Any loyal Kansas student will tell you all he knows.
And finally, we hope you all win!
A New York revenue officer found a hidden stock of liquor by trailing into an intoxicated cat. Must have been a case of, "The cat came back."
A NEW MOVE IN ACTION
With the formation of the Harvard Endowment Fund Committee in New York for the benefit of Harvard University, colleges over the country have started asking for more money with which to run the educational systems until at present the total amount asked for by American college amounts to $250,000,000.
Before the cry of Americanization and assimilation of the foreign begin to sweep the land no individuals seemed to feel the responsibility for bearing the burden of uplift along educational lines. Citizens voted once a year for new members of the School Board, college alumni voted at Commenecation each year for new Alumni Directors and members of the various governing boards.
The Harvard Committee who set the goal for the endowment fund fixed it at $15,250,000 and the money that has already been subscribed amounts to nearly $12,000,000. Harvard has shown herself to be a pioneer in the work but it has only been possible because her publicity committee has handled all publicity in two ways. First, they let the public know how great was Harvard's need, and then, they showed the serious situation which confronts higher educational work today.
The object has since been achieve
for people all over the country have begun to shoulder their obligations to the young people of the country and to realize the enormous importance of universal and proper education in the future development of America. The endowment campaigns that are now sweeping the country are accomplishing two things. First they are making the individual responsible for the education of the public and second, they are forcing people to realize the immense importance of higher education for the future development of America.
The biggest boost the University has received for some time in that district was the comment of a prominent Horton business man following the presentation of "Mrs. Temple's Telegram," in Horton last week by the University Dramatic Club.
1,257 bottles of rum were taken from sailors. It takes more than a constitutional amendment to make the sea dry.
GAINING PRESTIGE
An idea of what University students are capable of what was done was briefly brought to the attention of the people of Horton by the members of the Dramatic Club. While it gives an insight into only one of the numerous departments of the University, it leaves the impression that the same efficiency and thoroughness is employed in all the other branches.
No better way of advertising the University of Kansas could be employed than through students giving a practical demonstration of the work they are receiving. With the Band, the Glee Club, Debating Teams, Orchestra, and a few other of the University organizations making similar trips in the interest of their Alma Mater, the prestige which the University will gain is inimitable.
ART APPRECIATION
Seventeen thousand one hundred dollars was paid in New York the other day for a picture by Geo. H. Inness. Any student may see an Inness in the Brynwood room in the art department. He would discover how a man can put some paint upon a piece of canvas that sells for so much money.
Thirty-five cent gasoline is in the near future. Money made the mare go and it looks as if it was going to bring her back.
He looks at this Imes picture, and just at first is not much impressed. The animal picture on the north wall catches his eye as he enters. He likes thinks that stand out a little more than this "Crossing the Ford." Fritz Thawlaw's "Moonlight" on the right of it makes him wish he could walk down that village street with his best girl. The Venetian water-front on the left is full of the lure of the sea. But the luminous browns and the golden glow of the Inness somehow draw mtn back. The man who crosses the ford, riding one horse and leading another, is going home at the close of the day. The masses of foliage wait for the night, the water reflects the wonderful sky with its shimmering ribbon of strange transparent green, and the boy gets a kind of a shock and a thrill. The poetry in him responds to the poet in the painter.
He goes to the other side of the room. His eyes are fully open now as he truss about. He looks as one drinks when thirsty, never asking what the cold pure water is made of. And next day he brings a friend to see the picture. Somebody has told him mean-a lot about Inness, what a genius he was, how hard he worked, and the name and fame he won.
The friend likes it too, and then they browse through the collection. The portrait of the man who got these things together smiles upon them like the good sport he was. They just can't help telling other folks all about it, and the first thing you know our two art galleries will be, the most popular places on the Hill. Beauty isn't any sissy thing. It is as strong as life, and a great big part of the game.
"Widow Asks $100,000 of Thread Manufacturer in Love Suit." It would appear that he had atrung her along.

Young men appreciate Hart Schaffner & Marx clothes
THERE are good reasons why we have, and ought to have, the trade of the best dressed young men. We appreciate the demand of young men for smart style, and we supply it. But we do encourage our young men customers to give more attention and consideration to qualify than young men are apt to do.
Too many young fellows don't go deep enough into the clothes question; they're attracted by the style, but they forget quality
Both style and quality are needed. Style for the way you look in the clothes;quality,because it enables you to keep on looking that way
