Entered as second-class mail matter September 17, 1910, at the post office at Lawrence, Kansas, under the act of March 3, 1879. Published in the afternoon five times a week, by students of the University of Kansas, from the press of the Department of Journalism. Address all communications to UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN Lawrence, Kansas Phones, Bell K. U. 25 and 66 The Dally Kansan aims to picture the undergraduate students to go further than merely printing the news in printed materials. University versatility holds; to play no favorites; to be clean; to be cheerful; to be friendly; to be open-minded; to leave more serious problems to wiser heads; in all, to serve to the university; to educate the students of the University.

Now there's plenty of time to think about getting a fresh start, and a fresh start that will mean for several hundred of the student body the last round of the eight necessary to earn the privilege of writing A. B. or B. S. after their names. So hit **on hard**. You who are making this the last lap, hit the grit with extra vigor to make a strong finish. You who are starting in on your second lap, if the first lap has been successful, keep up the good work, and you will see K. U. still in the first rank as the years roll by. You who see the goal in the middle distance, resolve not to lag, and don't be tempted to quit in the middle of a college career. All of you, grinds and flunkers, roughmechs and fussers, sweet co-eids and manly young men, may everyone of you catch the spirit of the new s麦 mester—the last through which K. U. must struggle, ponderously overloaded with crowded classes and laboratories. With the promise of great things from the legislature, and the outlook of another big increase in enrollment next year, keep up the spirit that will keep K. U. growing as long as schools may be improved. It has been figured that all the strength wasted in howling because the University did not clean the snow off the ice on Potters lake would cut and store all the ice that has been on that body of water in the last three years, melt it and then freeze it again. It will be luck in number drawing and not judicious selection that determines who gets the snap courses next semester. YE POOR PROF "Quiz week may be hard on us poor dubs but it sure is a soft snap for the profs," said Freshman Blowhard this morning. "Just like Paradise compared to the other region; they don't have nothin' at all to do. Just take any old prof, all he does is just to sit in front of the class trying to snipe cribbers, while we sit there addlin' out grey matter tryin' to finger answer of the next question. "He has two quizzes each day. He goes home with those fifty or seventy books and reads 'em over. He don't spend more n' fifteen minutes on each book, and that only makes about twelve hours work all told. That's all he has to do besides spending a little time gettin' questions for the next day's quiz. Then for Saturday and Sunday all he has to do is to go over the notebooks and term papers and essays, find out those who are goin' to flunk and make out a report for the dean so we poor students will know if we have to take the same thing over again when we enroll Monday. "How much longer are you goin' to sit up over that old history and cram? Believe me I'd change places with the profs any old day!" and Freshman Blowhard "hove" a sigh. It all depends on the number you get whether you like this new system of enrollment or not. You can't escape the chronic bore—particularly the one who boasts of getting through without buying a book. It is said the new half dollars, quarters and dimes are indented in the middle so they will stack easily. We never had any trouble stacking them. Chicago women swim in perfumed water, according to a news dispatch. Got nothing on the K. U. students for 3314 use the pool here. It isn't the size of the track man that counts. Its the wind in his pipes. It used to be good sport to climb trees. Nowadays they band the trees to keep the bugs down. JES' FILLER NEVAH Mo! An intellectual giant Came to K. U. Clever boy was he, With his High School laurels Making him hate Himself awful. College was a warm Place in winter, And Dad was paying, so He'd stick around. He made fun of the Pick and Thought it all a Fine joke— This college stuff. But time brought the Mid-year quizzes And then the Dean Told the Youth that K. U. Would try to worry Along without him. So he sinect Goin to school No more. The Armenian dance netted only $15.00. Maybe it would have been better to have advertised it a "Bohemian relief dance." Rather careless of Mr. Lloyd George to take off his hyphen in the dead of winter. After all, this man Chaplain has more expression in his feet than the other movie actors have in their faces. It is rumored several of the professors and instructors are having quizzes. The legislature's investigating committee waited until the wind almost blew North College over before they would admit that K. U. was top-heavy. We never saw such funny men. Don't be discouraged if your college career seems to be a failure. They may need to switch jobs. By livin' to that little isle When issues itssays can't take a whack At the court's not-legal site.
