The Daily Kansan aims to picture the undergraduate life of one university further than merely printing the news by standing for it. Students are told to play no favorites; to be clean; to be cheerful; to be charismatic; to be smart and more serious problems to wiser heads; in all, to serve to teach the students of the University.

KNOWING A MAN
by neither the man nor his char-
acter more than by the things they
choose.
WELCOME. BROTHERS ALUMNI
We, who work and play, rally and
cut chapel, blunt and blucc, burn the
midnight oil and the grocer's boxes—now—welcome you who worked and played, rallied and cut chapel, bled and bluffed, burned the midnight oil and the grocer's boxes—then.
You are our kind. Minus the equation of time, you would be as we are. Then, twenty, thirty years ago you were. And years do not matter on such occasions.
We understand how dear the old campus is to you. It is dear to us, too. We know how eagerly you tramp the old paths, how anxiously you search for the story of the past in every tree, bench, and building. And we appreciate the pang it causes you to see us frolicing over the grounds that to you are so sacred. It seems almost desecration—our seeming thoughtlessness.
And, if possible, we want you today and tomorrow to forget there is such a thing as earning one's living. We want you to be one of us - a freshman, sophomore, junior, or senior again.
We know how you feel tonight. We know, because you are our kind. And we respect you for your sentiments—we who are doing our best to preserve the inheritances you have left us.
The University is yours.
The open ear is safer than the open mouth. The former is endangered in only one way—by what might get in. The latter is not only endangered by what may go in, but more by what is liable to come out.
AT 'EM, BOYS!
Hit that line!
Tomorrow will be the biggest chance of the season for you to come out and holler your head off, literally or figuratively speaking. It doesn't make a lot of difference which—just so you holler.
So at 'em fellails! All thirty-two hundred of you.
At 'em alumni! All ten thousand of you who come back to see the great Annual Tail Twisting!
You're all just fellahs tomorrow!
Just plain guys! Everybody on MeCook tomorrow will stand on equal ground when the game starts.
He will prove himself king who plays the hardest game, whether from the field or the sidelines.
So at 'em team! We're all for you!
Revised version: The Tiger out of the trenches by thanksgiving!
FOR THE ALMA MATER
Mr. Alumnus:
Do you remember back when you were in school that you had an appropriation problem? Well, things haven't changed a bit - except that
the situation is becoming more acute every year.
Those of you who have been here within the past decade have heard more or less about the Mill Tax. We fought for it year before last. We are fighting for it again this year. But now the measure has a new name, Alumni, acquaint yourselves with the Permanent Income Bill. It's the same old question in new garb.
You know its merits. You know how badly we need it, and you know how much you can help us—if you will. The fight will be in the next session of the Legislature. We are relying on our alumni.
If the University were to refuse entrance to some of the.state legislator's sons because of lack of room, the fathers might change their attitude towards the Permanent Income Bill. It makes a difference whose son it is.
LEST WE FORGET
Lest we forget—in the glorious uproar and exhilaration of the day that:
It is Thanksgiving. That ours are the riches of life and opportunity and that time lies before not behind us. That for a few years we may drink to the full of the pleasures of youth and at the same time grow into maturity. That our foster home is on a high hill, commanding the broad plains, the clear skies and the sunsets. That we are able to catch the inspiration of it all. That in these college days it is our privilege to build up a wealth of memories that will last as long as life lasts. And that the character of these memories is for us to determine.
That all this is good.
Thy friend has a friend, and thy friend's friend, a friend. Be discreet.
KING FOOTBALL
The metropolitan dailies reported last Saturday that an American aviator who has distinguished himself in the France-American Aero Corps at the front line and is returning to work the Yale-Harvard game. He is a Harvard graduate.
That a man should cross the Atlantic Ocean merely to see a football game shows the pulling powers of the great American college sport. The trip loses something of its strangeness, however when it is remembered that 500 colleges and ten times as many schools played the game this young men sought places on 5,500 teams; that 50,000 games were played; and that at least 25,000,000 persons attended the contests.
WHEN THE JAYS AND TIGERS MEET
It's going to be a battle when the Jays and Tigers meet... It's going to be a thriller, that will feel good; that will feel bad. It's going to make your hair stand up, your hat go in the air, and when some warrior fumbles it
And when some warrior fumbles it will almost make you swear.
It will be a battle royal, --you can boot your boots on that.—
With surprises for the "wise ones"
who have got it all "down pat". So if you're the least bit nervous, or can't bravely bear defeat,
You'd better clear the country when the Jays and Tigers meet.
SCRIBISH SCRIBBLINGS
Students: Prunes are a luxury now.
Faculty: Nothing has been said
about them.
"For Why" They Are Thankful.
Hughes: it might have been worse.
Ashley: it would have *eat*
Thanksgiving dinner in Paris.
No, Henry, The Sour Owl will not be sour because of the high cost of sugar.
Publishers and Newspaper Men:
NOTHING.
The Team: The ban on eating pie and ice cream will soon be lifted.
And after the war will come the 'love and a submarine' novels.
and ice cream will soon be lifted.
Merchants: Every one has not quit
Some are born kickers, some achieve the art of kicking, and others have kicks thrust upon them.
Matrimonial note: The Crown Prince had a serious engagement at Verdun.
Worn paths across the grass decorate the campus. To save a minute, students wear a pathway of a century.
Failure on the part of the student at Columbia to have his photograph taken at the scheduled time costs him twenty-five cents. In the first place, it is effective, than merely having the names read in chapel, and we think it will.—Ex.
