The Daily Kansan aims to picture the university of Kansas; to go further than merely print the news in University of Kansas; to play more varsity holds; to play no favorities; to be clean; to be cheerful; to be good; to be self-reliant; to leave more serious problems to wiser heads; in all, to serve to help the students of the University.
TUESDAY. OCTOBER 30, 1917.
THE NEW HOP PLANS The decision of the Sophomore Hop management in changing the date of the annual class party would seen a bit rushed if it were not for the justifying circumstances.
The change in the military draft plans that by the second semester there may be called out of the University all students who are of age. This would mean the greatest depletion from the senior class if notice is received by those who have no dependents. The seniors, many at least have paid their dues to the Hop and are entitled to go to it. It is proper then that it be held before the second semester and the date set is suitable for all concerned.
Another feature of the big party that those in charge should be complimented on is the fact that it is handled on an anti-graft basis. The tickets are to be sold through the Registrar for the first time in the history of the University. No salary is given the manager nor is it expected. The spirit of doing things for the sake of doing them well at the University must be cultivated and the sooner it gets here the better for K. U.
All K. U. students felt the pinch of war Monday. The 6:30 rising whistle was the first indication. The 8 o'clock class was the second. The compulsory gym and military drill was conclusive proof that war changes the established order of events.
THE OLD ORDER CHANGETH
The change on the Hill seemed hard the first day, but K U men and women can afford to overlook these trifling inconveniences. The cause they are serving is just and glorious. Monday, October 29, 1917 will be a big day in the history of the University of Kansas. It will be remembered by bigger things than the broken sleep of students.
The whistle blowing each morning will mean more than that it is time to get up. It will mean that K U. students have another day in which they will do their little part in the biggest and best way they can.
THOSE DIRECTORIES
Comes now the news that there may be no studet directories this year, that the state printer may refuse to handle the order. The result is that K. U. will probably be the only institution of its size in the United States that has no directory or list available by the students.
It has been suggested that the order of printing the directories be given to some local printer or to the journalism press to print and the customary price be collected for the payment of the cost. Then, too, comes the idea of putting the publishing of the directory in the hands of a committee to be named by the Student Council and that the committee be authorized to get advertising for the payment of the edition. There are very few merchants who would not jump at the chance for an ad in the directories.
At any rate let's have action on this question. If the directories are to be printed they should be ready so that they will be of some use to the students.
NO KHAKI OR GINGHAM
NO KNOWN OR GINCHAM Comment has been made that the essential part of the student's cooperation with the University authorities in the all-University party Saturday was not up to l.
The guests did not come in khaki and gingham. It was to have been an old-fashioned country party, but the weeks of advertising which emphasized this feature were of no avail. It is evident that with K. U. students, khaki and hingham are not synonymous with a good time. It is evident that in the future, advertised feature parties will not really be feature parties.
If Saturday night's affair had been a bobo convention instead of a barn dance, would K. U. men and women have come in dress suits and evening gowns?
ON OTHER "HILLS"
A women's Wold Series was played by the women of the Colorado State College of Agriculture last week. One nine inning game was played in installments of 3 innings each and the score was 47 to 40. The pitcher of the winning side was allowed only twelve walks against the thirteen pitchers by the one winner. One of the women caught a fly in the forth inning and another made a home run when the ball got lost behind the foul line.

Co-operative Buying Plan
Cooperative Buying Plan
Because Ann Arbor retailers are demanders of furniture, consider reasonable prices for food-stuffs, several organizations have banded together and will buy cooperatively from outside firms. Two carloids of potatoes have already been ordered and the purchase of other staples is contemplated unless the local dealers lower their prices.
Italian Club at Arkansas
An Italian Club has been organized among the faculty at the University of Arkansas. The purpose of the club is to obtain a better understanding of the Italian people and the club will teach the language under the auspices it who is head of the department of romance languages at the University.
Can't Drop Stitches There ... Yarn supplied by the Red Cross chapter at the University of Illinois will because of the shortage, be given as part of their curriculum, by samples of their work, show that they are experienced knitters.
A Fraternity For Letter Men
A local fraternity for "O" men is planned by the athletes at the university to expect later to start a similar movement at other universities and make a national fraternity of the organization.
Motion pictures of the Ohio State Indiana football game Saturday will be shown the evening of the game at the movie theaters in Indianapolis.

Do K. U. Woman resist this?
The Oklahoma Daily daily test that the 500 women at the University write up千百一十万 men in the service of Union Sam. One woman is reported as confessing that she is writing to five, "four of them because they asked me to write to them to help pass over some of their lonesome hours, and the other—O, well, just because."

Now, where soft-slipped dancers had
We had our summer, stoithful and
Tears behind the grim.
You march no through the avenue;
You're tramping in Berlin!
Tears behind the grin.
You match no through the ax.
Left-right; Left-right;
Swing and swing and swing.
You're tramping in Berlin!
Leftfight! Leftzight!

But the harder heart of a king!
Each foot shall strike a chord upon
Till the toned thunder, passing under
Breaks with a doomsday sound!
Left-right: Left-left:
Shall shudh thud!
Each heart be drum of a host to come
To forefront of the hood!
Let's off sir on the line,
Where guns by gun, your son on
Got your son in.
They go not forth another's gods to
They are not traders, seizing what they can.

But the word evangelicals sent to make
the wide world safe for man.
Left-right! Left-right!
The hands of the dead shall feel that
the hearts of the dead shall feel that
And beat it to echo it;
Left-right! Left-right!
The sun hands down his victory

Roycroft Hand Made Gifts
are to be found exclusively in Lawrence at this store.
ELBERT HUBBARD founded the Roycroft Shops twenty-one years ago—founded them on an idea borrowed from the English artist-craftsman, William Morris—to make books and things, "not how cheap but how good!"
Although the founder of the Roycroft idea perished with the sinking of the ill-fated Lusitania, the Roycroft products are still made with the same painstaking care—by master designers of international reputation. The results of their labours are to be found in our complete stock of Roycroft articles of Hand Made Copper, and Modeled Leather—superb gifts that look well anywhere, and stand comparison anywhere.
