Francis Martin Talks Before Geology Club
"Beer-flies, wood-ticks, timber wolves, and mosquitoes are the unwelcome guests of the survey in the forests of Wisconsin," according to Francis I. Martin, who addressed the Geology Club and the Mining Journal Club yesterday afternoon in Haworth Hall.
Mr. Martin, president of the K. U.
Geology Club, was a member of one of the four parties of the Wisconsin Geological Survey, last summer, and he told of his experiences while in the old building. He also attended the Wisconsin Geological Survey through Prof. William H. Twenhof, formerly of the department of geology.
The employees of the state of Wisconsin were surveying and running the magnetic lines so that the poor people may know when they thereby got rich. The rich Chicago mine prospectors would buy the mineral rights on the land of a poor person for a very small sum and make a rich stake, but now the poor people can earn it and find out whether they have any iron ore or not.
Mr. Barb illustrated his address with drawings and answered questions which the members of the clubs asked.
"A tenderfoot with the survey is the goat of the whole party," according to Mr. Martin, and he told a num-ber of his colleagues a certain member of the surveying party.

VICTORY CHEERS CHICAGO ALUMNI
Secretary Congratulates Team and Coaches on Victory Over Cornhuskers
The Kansas spirit continues to be in the hearts of K. U. graduates long after they have entered the cold, cold world, according to a letter received by the Daily Kansan today from Homer Hoyt, A.B.I.'3 secretary of the Chicago Alumni Association. The news of a Jayhawk victory over the Cornhuskers was welcome to the Chicago University men who hail Cornhuskers as well as a meeting of the association Saturday resulted in a pep letter of congratulations being sent to the Kansas team and the Daily Kansan.
At the meeting Saturday night the Chicagoans planned a banquet and celebration for last night at which victory could be celebrated in a just way. The many speakers included former athletes and prominent K. U. men. The letter of congratulations follows:
The Daily Kansan:
The K. U. alumni of Chicago are shouting "Rock Chalk" tonight for the glorious victory which we have been waiting for for seven years. We have seen the toughest kind of breaks give close games to Nebraska after Kansas spirit and Kansas fight had deserved to win. We send the heartiest congratulations to Coach Olecott and the boys for this triumph of Kansas spirit over one of the greatest football teams in the West. We trust you know how the team will not become over-confident for the Missouri game. The Chicago alumni will celebrate the victory with a banquet or Wednesday night.
TWIST THAT TIGER'S TAIL.
Very sincerely yours,
HOMER HOTT, '13.
NO GIRLS' RALLY—W. A. A.
Athletic Board Thinks Special Rally Unnecessary
"The women's rally of the past two years will not be held this year," said Dorothy Cole, president of the Women's Athletic Association, this morning.
"The W. A. A. women have all signified their intentions of attending the regular rallies and to give the team their very best support at the game next Thursday," said the president. "We are making a special effort to see that all members know the K. U. songs. The W. A. A. was well represented at the Nebraska game, and we don't think we need a women's rally to stir up the enthusiasm which is bubbline over now."
This decision was reached at a meeting of the board last night. Since there are so many rallies of a general nature in which the women always participate, an extra rally seemed to have no particular value.
W. H. H. Piatt, LLB.96; now a Kansas City attorney, will visit the University Friday and speak before the students of journalism. Mr. and Mrs. Piatt will be the guests of Prof. and Mrs. S. O. Rice.
All women can demonstrate their feelings at the W. A. A. matinee Saturday afternoon when the members of the W. A. A. and their friends will have a get-together meeting in Robinson Gymnasium.
EX-K. U. FOOTBALL STAR

Mr. Platt is one of K. U's loya alumni. He is remembered as a football star while in school, and he will be asked to speak at the big rally tomorrow. His talk to the journalists will be in Room 110; Fraser Hall, at 3:30 o'clock. He will speak on libel laws, and on newspapers as they are and as they might be, according to the lawyer's point of view.
The Mu Phi Epsilon, musical sorority, is making a collection of the pictures of all of the North College professors. They intend to decorate the walls of their house with these pictures.
SENIOR-ALUMNI MIXER ALL SET
Bill Weber Prepared Entertain ing Program for Event
ALUMNI ARE EAGER TO GO
Fraternities Are Asked to Invite Alumni to Attend
Mixer
One thousand seniors and "old grads" are marking time until the big smoker in Eagles Hall the night before the Turkey Day game. The prospects of meeting all the fellows and making a host of friends among the new ones appeals strongly to the alumnus, and already letters are arriving in Lawrence telling of the great times they expect to have at the biggest affair of its kind ever pulled off in Lawrence.
The program that has been listed out by Bill Weber, chairman of the smoker committee, is meeting with favor on all sides, and if all those come who say they will, Eaes Hall will not hold the crowd, and the setting of the affair may have to be changed to Robinson Gymmum.
"The way the tickets are going sure pleases me," said Weber this morning. "It shows plainly that the men are behind the movement and will push it through to successful completion. If the rush for travel continues throughout this week, you can join at a full house Wednesday night."
All fraternities are urged to request their alumni to get to Lawrence early so plans can be made for their attendance at the smoker.
This smoker begins early and will be over in plenty of time to allow the guests of the seniors to fill other engagements if they so desire.
WILL TALK OF EMERSON
"Emerson As He Was" will be discussed in two lecture-talks in Fraser Chapel, December 13 and 14, by Charles J. Woodbury, who, as a student in Williams college, took a course of lectures under Ralph Waldo Emerson, and later accompanied him and promoted other lectures in neighboring localities. This will be the next University lecture.
C. J. Woodbury, Friend of Writer, Here Dec. 13-14.
The two lectures will be entirely distinct, says F. R. Hamilton, chairman of the University convoction committee. In the first of the talks—"Emerson With His Friends," Mr. Woodbury will discuss the writer's relations with his friends in Colorado and his wife, his sister, Mrs. Woodbury will discuss "Emerson, Himself." In this will be conveyed Emerson's inner and deeper personality as he made it known to one of his "good boys" his expression for college students. It will describe his method and ways of working. Of this he will provide an example. Ralph Waldo Emerson, wrote Mr. Woodbury, "You have brought back to me my father as I never expected to see him on earth."

SENIOR PICTURES WANTED BY XMAS
Dope for 1917 Jayhawker Will be in Hands of Publishers Early
MAKE YOUR DATES NOW
Better Quality of Work Assured to Early Comers Says Manager Gelvin
"It is essential that all senior, junior, and group pictures be in the hands of the Jayhawker staff by December 16," said Dick Gelvin, business manager of the 1917 Jayhawker, this morning, "too much can not be said on the importance of the matter; the staff receives the senior staff call his photographer now and make a date for his picture to be taken.
If the staff cannot get the pictures by December 16 the work will be inferior and not up to standard as the photographers and engravers cannot do the best work in a short time. But if every senior will co-operate with the editor and the business manager by getting their pictures in at an early date it will insure the best work and a better Jayhawk, at times, the engineers intend to have their pictures in the Jayhawk this year. This large number will naturally cause a rush if they are turned in late.
resides the large number of senior and juniors, the photographers, engravers and the Jayhawker staff will have to handle the group picture of practically every organization on the Hill. Every organization, as well as seniors and juniors, is urged to call its photographer and make dates for its pictures. "The co-operation with the staff will be appreciated and will make a better Jayhawker," said editor Nordstrom.
The junior section will be larger than ever this year. More than 10% juniors have expressed their desire to have their photograph in the Jayhawker. This promises a record for the juniors over previous years.
EVANS WRITES ARTICLF
Interviews Doctor Crumbine for "Nation's Business"
An interview with Dr. S. J. Crumbine, secretary of the Kansas State Board of Health, by Prof. J. W. Evans of the department of journalism appears in the November number of "The Nation's Business" under the caption of "The Community's Health." This is the second article Professor Evans has contributed to this publication.
Doctor Crumbine is known as the Swat the Fly Man, the Individual Drinking Cup Man, the Anti-Roller Towel Man and the Clean Up Man.
Doctor Crumbine is now trying to bring home to the people a sense of relative values, "we don't need" receive more attention from the government than does the welfare of man. He cites as an example of this the sensational story sent out by the Associated Press last year when the excitement over the health and safety about a human case of the disease that had been discovered in Ellsworth County, Kansas. Immediately the United States Government sent a trained veterinary from the Bureau of Animal Industry to investigate and to see to it that the cattle were protected from the man.
"We must be aroused to a sense of
safety in order to steer and
a man said Doctor Crumbs."
The Dramatic Club now has fifty members. The next meeting will be held Wednesday, December 6. Two plays will probably be presented

TRUANTS TO BE PADDLED
"Meat Hunters" After Those Who Play "Hooky"—Woe Unto Them

"This assembly is to be entirely different from the others which we have been having," said Gedency this morning, when asked what the program for next year will be. It is the biggest rally of the school year. We will not only celebrate the Huskers' defent but we will go half way towards winning the Turkey day game."
ENGLISH
The team be on the main floor of the Gymnasium and the chairs have been cleared off so as to hold the crowd. A small platform has been erected at one end of the hall for the speakers of the day, the majority of whom will be students and former football stars. The Chancellor has kindly consented to give a short talk. Uncle Jimmy will make his first appearance of the year at one of the stadiums, one of the most foured backfield man in the Missouri Valley in '92, '93, '94, '95 will be on the program. Mac will be there with the band to liven up things and to keep the ball rolling.
Those men, who were peculiarly known at the first of the year as "meat hunters" will be on hand with their paddles to do their moral duty towards any man who takes the liberty of leaving the "Hill" while the rally is on, said one of the paddling squad this morning. It is the wish of Dr. Strong as well. We can assume that every loyal Jawhaker attend this rally, "We can win or lose the Missouri game at this rally," said Gedney, "Every man and woman should feel duty-bound to attend this rally."
MARCH DOWNTOWN AFTERWARDS
MACKENZIE. Notably after the peppest the student will fall in back of the band and parade down 14th Street and up Massachusetts. There will be a special section for the men and women who are injured, it is hoped that all will participate in it.
Every student is urged to do his part to make this the biggest rally yet, and show not only this town but show that Kansas spirit is still rampant.
MEN CAN'T GET DATES
Women Save Saturday Afternoon for Matinee
Men say they can not get dates for Saturday afternoon and that they are in the dark concerning the unusual number of refusals.
The janitor in the gym has thrown a little light on the afternoon by stating that some of the entertainment is still in the dark and would be that afa-fun. Of the fact that he was asked to regulate the lights for a moonlight dance.
Undoubtedly the refusals are due to the big party on the Hill, known as the W. A. A. Matinee to be held in Robinson Gymnasium, Saturday afternoon from three until five-thirty o'clock.
Entertainment of an unusual kind has been planned for brief intermissions between dances, and the real intermission will be not longer than 15 minutes when games are outting out the color scheme of the day will be served.
This is one afternoon when a date with mere man does not appeal to women who like real fun.
