HOME-COMING DAY The coming of Nebraska and its football team to Lawrence next Saturday for the last game on McCook this year means more than merely an exciting game of the national college sport. It means Home-Coming Day for every alumnus who can possibly get back to Lawrence for a day or so stay. It means that grads who haven't seen each other since they left school one day in June will accidentally run across each other on the campus or at the frat house and will almost be driven to falling on the other's neck for joy. It means that the senior who sorts looked down on the fresh when both were in school several years back will now have a great time telling each other about it. For its Home-Coming Day of the University of Kansas. The seniors are giving their annual smoker for the old grads Friday night. The fourth year men will furnish corn-cob pipes and filler consisting of tobacco for the old grads. There will be speeches; someone will sing. Everybody will cheer when football is mentioned and they'll all smoke the old pipe of peace and good cheer. And it's more than a mere football game. WAR WORK AND YOU WAR WORK AND YOU This is War Work week at the University. $11,000 will be raised this week among University students to further war work Over There. £11,000 is the University's share. One-half of this fund will be used for the "Prisoner of War" camp fund, just as one-half of every cent raised in Kansas for this War Work fund will be used. The other half goes to general work among soldiers Over There. The Y. M, C. A, and the Y. W, C. A. are behind this wonderful finance movement. It is through the efforts of these two associations that such a fund has been organized. But these two associations aren't raising the money; they are merely helping. It's up to the University. Great sacrifices are being made a other schools to raise their quota of this war work sum. At Manhattan the seniors have given up their annual to use the money formerly spent on that for war work Over There. Iowa Aggies subscribed $22,000. Iowa Aggies subscribed $22,000. The University of Kansas must raise $11,000. Reports are coming into the state headquarters at Topeka of the quotas being oversubscribed at other schools far smaller than the University of Kansas. The share here is $11,000. You'll have your chance this week. Surely you don't expect to save money in these war times. Come across. MORE OVERTIME OFFENDERS It is rather a fortunate matter that the Medics' parade ground is in a different section of the campus than the parade ground of the battalion meeting at four o'clock. For both sections would be drilling at the same time. All of which brings up the question: Are the officers of the company to be held responsible if they hold their company over time? Monday night every company meeting at four o'clock was held from four to seven minutes overtime. Four to seven minutes isn't a long time but it counts in these rush times. And the men are in their places when the bugle blows at four o'clock. If the officers of the four o'clock section are to hold the respect of their men they should dismiss their companies at the specified time. Four to seven minutes isn't a long time but it counts. YOUR SOLDIER BOY Have you done your Christmas shopping for your soldier boy yet? shopping for your soldier boy yet? November 15 is the latest day presents can be accepted and guaranteed to be delivered to your soldier boy in service across the sea. If you get your box with its remembrances in the postoffice by November 15 your soldier boy will be happy Christmas Day. If you don't, there is a possibility of someone being about the most lonesome boy in the world December 25. Christmas gifts should be packed in wooden boxes for the trip over. The postmaster where you mail your package has the right to inspect the contents of the box. After that no one will see what's in it until opened by your soldier boy himself in the trenches. D. Y. C. S. E. for your soldier boy. WATCH YOUR STEP You're in a hurry, you short cut right across the campus or across the edge of the parking. And a bit of grass or flower bed which has been in the process of growth for a month or so is gone. Watch your step on the campus. And go allow. It's getting to be rather an old story—this urging of the students to get all three shots at the University Hospital when they start the series. But the hospital authorities still are forced to use the columns of the Kansan and to tell everyone that one shot and even two shots don't count for much unless one gets the final shot in the typhoid vaccine. Some folks won't go back the second and third times because they say the needle hurts too much. But experience has shown that the first shot is the worst. Go on back and get your last shot of typhoid killer. The other two are wasted if you don't. ON OTHER "HILLS" A hostess house is to be opened at American Lake, Washington for the sake of soldiers located near there, many of whom are college men and miss exceedingly the comforts of home. Michigan Girls Up Early Girls at Michigan favor 7:50 classes because they believe it is healthy and believe they have been coddled long enough and that it is time to buckle down to business. Southwest College has found a novel way in which to celebrate her Homecoming Day. A large "S", made of rock, is mounted on the wall, will fill the year the school, and will be painted white each year by the freshmen. Michigan Girls Up Early The Daily iowan advocates the polity of giving letters to the cheer leaders as a mark of appreciation for their help in winning games. POET'S CORNER THE WINTER RAINS When frosts of Autumn turn the meadows brown. And in the woods the sodden leaves are strenuous. One in the snow off-melancholy moan That tells the Winter rains are sweepy At dead of night about the sleepy town The feel of warm air in the threatening The houses crack with sudden sound of nighs. And in the brow is knit with awnen brown. The storm it blurs through the night. Puff after puff, each louder than the And then at dawn of misty morning Loud sound is borne upon the The steady rain is borne upon the Then are the heavens opened.
