U. 25 and 66 The Daily Kansan aims to picture the undergraduate students to go further than merely printing the news standing up; it also wants to play no favorities; to be clean, to be cheerful; to be kind; to be helpful; to leave more serious problems to wiser heds; in all, to serve to the university; to the students of the University. WELCOME FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 16, 1917. Cornhuskers, Nebraska Enthusiasts, Alumni and other visitors, the University of Kansas greets you and bids you feel at home on the campus, in the buildings, at the entertainments, and in the homes. Of the 2200 students at the University there are 2200 on the entertainment committee and they are ready to show that hospitality is one of the greatest of the many virtues of the largest school in Kansas. Greetings. SPIRIT VS. LAWLESSNESS The destruction of property is not college spirit. It doesn't help the team; it hurts by turning away support. It alienates admiration and sup port of townspeople from all University athletics and activities. The University Daily Kansan encourages college spirit and enthusiasm, but certainly deplores the lawless acts of last night's rally, whether committed by students who have not been in the University long enough to learn the true University spirit or by outsiders who take advantage of a rally to cloak their depredations. THINK! GIVE! Imagine men of the University of Kansas who have given themselves for the country's service being fed the scientific minimum which is equivalent to one cup of bullion a day. Just such a condition is found in the prison camps of Europe and there is a probability that American soldiers will be held in some of the horrifying camps before this war ends. Other universities have taken the precaution to make the prison camp life different; other universities have contributed generously to the Student Friendship War Fund which will relieve the situation. Smith College with 900 women responded with $15,000. The share the University of Kansas must raise for the national fund of a million dollars is $11,000. A short campaign will be launche Monday to collect the necessary amount. Think and study between now and then. Put the usual expenditures for luxuries down on a piece of paper. Add to that column a portion of the amount spent for formerly considered necessities. Cut on the necessities again until you know you will feel the cut. Add these three items together and give that sum to the University fund next Monday. Summed up this means sacrifice and that is what it will take to win the war and give our boys in the far off country more than the scientific minimum. DO YOUR BIT AGAIN Many of the visitors to the University tomorrow will miss numbers of men who would have been with us if it were not for war. Many of those who will be missed are at Camp Don- iphan as members of Company M. It was for these men that a movement was started recently by the executive board of the Woman's Student Government Association to send some well filled Thanksgiving boxes to Company M. Since every woman who registers in the University automatically becomes a member of the W. S. G. A. every woman is directly interested and individually responsible for the success of the movement under way. There will be no work connected with the undertaking—the vital thing is that each woman pay the quarter which represents the association dues for the year. Many paid during registration; the other quarters are needed and needed soon. When a W. S. G. A. representative calls upon those who have not paid let them remember that they are helping to make Thanksgiving day for Company M more home-like. PATIENCE PLEASE It's the little quarter that counts. Reports of discontent in the ranks of the K. U. military companies at the lack of experience of some of the officers are heard almost daily. But inexperienced officers, like military drill itself, is a part of the game. Now, of all times, the exercise of patience is the thing most needful. The dictates of common sense is that the company members be tolerant and respectful, and that the officers, by sincere, effort, earn this respect. Since the Senate passed the military drill and compulsory exercise ruling Miss K. U. reads Shakespeare, and Milton in the morning and comes down to earth and learns to swim in the afternoon—thus she cons the mighty line and learns the side stroke. Is she not rapidly approaching a wholesome philosophy of life? MENTAL LAPSES COMEDY "The Fortune Teller."—Bradstreet, Orange Peel. MORE THAN HALF SHOT MORE The soldier was telling of his thrilling adventures on the field of battle to a party of young fellows, one or two of whom were scapical as "Then," he said, "the surgeons took me up on the wagon and carefully in the wagon wagon and, "Look here," interrupted one of the doubtful listeners, "you don't mean the ammunition wagon. You mean the umbilance wagon." But the old man shook his head. "No," he insisted; "I was so full of bullets that they decided I ought to go in the ammunition wagon." THE EXACT PLACE Judge: Did you strike this man in an excess of iraseability? The Coon: No. suh. I done hit him in de stumick--Tiger. NO WONDER "She's the daughter of a bank president." "No wonder she draws so much interest."—Purple Cow. A BOOMERANG "That's a good one on Jokeleigh." "What's happened?" "He had an insurance policy on the contents of his cellar and he thought it funny to put in a claim when he had burned all his coal." "What did the company say to that?"

THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN DOLLARS AND IDEAS I have a dollar. I weap. Now you have my dollar. And I have yours. No one has been off. You have an idea. I have an idea. We swop. Now we have two ideas. And I have two ideas. That's the difference. POET'S CORNER & OF YORE! AS OF YORE! At Lexington and Concora rang the call. Away with sycites, and over ditch and Rallied the Anglo-Saxon ts our area.

The advantage of a shut mouth is not confined to keeping out flies. By its judicious and timely employment sorrow and suffering, misunderstandings and heartbreaks, trouble of every known kind are preventable. Indeed, skilled statisticians working overtime for years could not compute the harm done by failing to keep human mouths shut. Nature has given us two eyes but only one mouth; he that keepeth his mouth (shut) keepeth his life; if any man offend not in word, the same is a perfect man; out of our own mouth shall we be judged? these are familiar phrases, so familiar perhaps as to be contemptually disregarded. Oh, thoughtless word, how great are your ravages, and how avoidable; but "a word fitty spoken is like apples of gold in baskets of silver." OUR COUNTRY "And for your country, boy, and for that Flag, never dream a dream but of serving her as she bids you, even though the service carry you through a thousand hells. No matter what happens to you, no matter who flatters you or who abuses you, you never look at another flag, never let a night pass but you pray God to give you Flag. Remember, boy, that behind officers and the military, and people your Country, and that you belong to Her as you belong to your own mother. Stand by Her, boy, as you would stand by your own mother."—Edward Everett Hale. CLASSIFIED WANTED-FOR SALE- FOR RENT Central Educational Bureau, St. Louis, Mo. Wants teachers.
