The Daily Kansan aims to picture the university in Kansas; to go further than merely printing the news from Kansas; to go further with the news; to hold versity holds; to play no favorites; to be clean; to be cheerful; to be kind; to be helpful; to leave more serious problems to wiser heads; in all, to serve to the university; to the students of the University. TUESDAY, DECEMBER 18, 1917. OUR SERVICE FLAG Associated Journalism Students un furled today a service flag with forty two stars, each representing a student from the department who is in active service under the flag that represents us all, the Stars and Trines. The Kansan misses these men. A year ago it would not have been thought possible to get the Kansan out day after day without their valuable assistance. Perhaps it is the sacrifice that such men are making that stimulates the entire University to greater efforts. THE K. U. BAND Fraser Chapel should be crowded Wednesday night for the concert to be given by the K. U. band. In so far as school activities go, the concert is one of the big events of the year. The band, which consists of about forty first-class musicians, has been rhearsing many weeks. Good music is assured, and the program of classical and patriotic selections is a welcomed and needed variety in the year's course of entertainments. WORK FOR KANSAS But the main reason for going to leaser Chapel tomorrow night is to hear good music by a good band. No elaboration is necessary. University men and women know the K.U. band. They know what to expect from J. C. McCanles, the director. He has taught the students well. They can now show their appreciation of this service. Students who wish to see the University retain her best teachers, and in every other way reach the highest point of efficiency, are making plans to work for the Permanent Income Bill during the holidays. The bill will be explained at county club banquets and students will do individual work among the voters. This is the true Kansas spirit and every student who lends a hand in this work will be doing a direct and valuable service to the University. A constitutional amendment is the only way to insure a permanent income to the University and other state educational institutions. The legislature has given its approval to the measure and it is now ready to be submitted to a vote of the people at the next general election. As a rule students are familiar with the merits of the bill from the University's point of view. There are, however, many advantages under the permanent income method that are of vital interest to the voter. Three of those should be emphasized in all campaign work. The first is that the proposed amendment would not increase taxes nor take any power away from the legislature. The amount of the tax would be a statutory and not a constitutional matter. In the second place the permanent income method is better because it reserves from politics the financing of the state schools. No state school should be compelled to go into politics every two years to get an adequate appropriation. Lastly, a permanent income for the schools would give the people better schools for the same expenditure. Fourteen states are now using this method of taxation for their educational institutions. Kansas cannot afford to be at the end of the procession. Hilltop Philosophy Patience is indeed a cherished trait even in a recruiting station, And now if an eight-hour day can be arranged for soldiers all will be well. Now comes another disease to buffle the wits of the medical science—the "kitter's cramp." The question of uniforms still agitates the minds of the drilling public. There seems to be no objection to those who wish them buying them. Isn't it too bad that people support our war charities only when they are begged to do so? Grand thing is patriotism until it hits the purse. It is no more than natural that the sympathetic heart of womankind should be the first to think of the Christmas of the boys in the training camps, but just the same, our W.S.G.A. must be commended for their efforts in attempting to gather in the presents for our brothers at Donjphan. This euphony is a great thing. It saves much deep thought and lessens the necessity of originality. Without it our social committees would indeed be put to it. "Journalism Jaze" and "Junior Jump"—beautiful. Too bad our fathers hit to call a taffy-pull or I will. If they were of euphony we might still be having "taffy-turs" or even "taffy-twists". The first two letters are satisfactory. ON OTHER "HILLS" The boys advertise for girls at the University of Minnesota—at least two did. They wanted to go to the junior-senior masquerade and the following advertisement appeared: "Wanted: Two junior or senior girls on Saturday night in the Home Economics building." "The *Iloo*," the annuol of the University of Illinois is to feature a military section this year. The book is ever and contains 4,000 pictures. The University of Cincinnati is not ashamed of its luckless football squad. The team went through the season without making a score, and the fact is played up big in the University News. The University of Illinois Military Band is to give a concert for the benefit of its former members now in the Army. Also, he is going to purchase a service flag. Twenty-two out of 362 students in classes of American history at Ohio State University read President Wilson's war message to Congress. A few read the headlines and a few more the summary. "These facts are eloquent in themselves," says the Daily Illini.

Copyright Hart Schaffner & Maru The rule works both ways, and the resourceful woman seeks out a man's store and the advice of other men. This is a store for men; it sells the things a man enjoys owning; the things he gets for himself. And it's a place for both men and women to buy gifts for men. Our stock is generous and varied: Hart Schaffner & Marx suits and overcoats, of course; shirts, hats, a new array of ties, cuff links, and scarf pins; leather wallets, belt buckles, fountain pens, sport goods, and camp utilities. There are many others, some that you will think of at once, others you'll appreciate having called to your attention. That is where we can be of service to you; we can share the advantage of our acquaintance with men. We'll be glad to do it.
