The Daily Kansan aims to picture the kindness of Kansas; to go further than merely printing the text on paper of the University holds; to play no favorites; to be clean; to be cheerful; to be obedient; to be aqueous; to leave more serious problems to wiser readers. In all, to satisfy the students of the University.
FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 17, 1916.
MEET THE TEAM!
The biggest football game in the west will be played tomorrow afternoon at Lincoln. Both teams can't win and while the Cornhuskers have a slight edge on the dope the coaches and players who left Lawrence last night were a determined, confident set of men.
Kansas will be pleased with the result.
Sunday morning at 7 o'clock the Nebraska special bearing the team will arrive at the Union Pacific depot. There will be a squad of tired men on that train—men who did their very best for Kansas, even if beaten.
It will cheer the heart of every one of those fellows if there is a big crowd out to meet them and welcome them back.
It will take a little nerve to get up at 6 o'clock but is it too much of a sacrifice to ask in honor of the men who battle at Lincoln tomorrow? The season's not over yet—there is another job left for Thanksgiving so don't lay down on the job but be at the depot Sunday morning at 7 o'clock to test your lung power.
The woman who has no servant troubles can always talk about her neighbors.
"TURN ABOUT IS." ETC.
The cudgel has already been taken up in defense of the student who is suffering at the hands of an unthinking professor. Time is an essential element in the preparation of assignments. The majority of students are ready and willing to devote all the time necessary to the proper preparation of work assigned, if the time required comes within reasonable limits. If not—necessity forces the student to slight other subjects to prepare the one, or else abandon proper preparation of the subject assigned. In either event failure in recitation results. And not only failure in recitation, but failure in grasping and understanding the subject. Is it too much to ask that the instructor show that he, himself, understands the subject by assigning only so much as can be done, and done well, within the two-hour limit?
Some professors think that under an honor system they are put on their honor to do nothing during a quiz but look out for cribbing.
FOOTBALL LUCK?
We are at a football game. There is a fumble. A drab bounce plunges upon the ball as it bounds along the ground, rises without checking his speed, and runs forty yards for a touchdown. Then someone in the grandstand shouts, "Lucky! The odds are against us. They get all of the breaks."
There is another play. The ball is passed. A wild scramble, and a twisting, squirming, clawing object
fights its way out of the mass and plunges several yards before it is tackled and brought down. Then someone in the grandstand shouts, "Lucky! The odds are against us. They get all of the breaks."
"Follow the ball, and never take your eyes off of it," is a bit of standard advice in sport, and no better can be given. The lucky man in football is the fellow who follows the ball at all times during the game. He does not just happen to be on the spot when a fumble occurs. He does not just happen to intercept a forward pass. He outdoes his opponents because he keeps his eyes "glued on the ball" as the coach would put it.
"K" WEEK AGAIN
There are about forty "K" men at the University yet how many "K" sweaters do you see on the hill?
The reason is found in the thoughtless remark of many students when they see a "K" sweater—"There goes a "K" man trying to show off." It is regrettable that this attitude has sprung up in the student body but it exists.
A "K" is something that any college man envies and is something that any man, who has won one, should be proud to advertise but no one cares to wear one when he knows that students are making the above remark about him.
Why not remedy this attitude toward the symbol of honor, which is granted our athletes? Two years ago a "K" week was held on the hill, when every man wore his athletic sweater. Let's do it again.
GOOD BUSINESS
"Yep, made a good bargain today
Bought that outline of a fellow las
year for four bits. He pulled a I or
it but I only made a II. Just the
same, I sold it for a dollar by tellin'
the kid I made a I on it and that he'd
sure do the same," gloried a certain
youth who was duly praised and admired,
for his business ability.
Just what code of honor do he and his friends use, and just how much does their University work mean to them? Whatever their code may be, once they are out in the world it won't stand up very long against the principles of good business.
Jayhawk Squawks
The war cry of the politicians. "He's all right! Hughes all right! Wilson!"
Give the lightning it's eight-hour day if it won't strike.
If they don't lower the cost of paper pretty quick the students will have to do it.
Any cop who would "pinch" a kid
game must have been born grown up.
game must have been grown up.
Regardless of where the suggestion came from, it is not conducive to the financial interests of some students to participate in what some just after the first of the month.
Now that the big presidential scrap is settled I wonder how the home town ticket came out.
It isn't the original cost—it's the horse. For instance—a charley horse.

The average man on entering the University has a very laudable ambition to be a great man in the eyes of others. He is able to account for makes him want to account for things during his stay here. This is wholly desirable but all too many in their desire to gain recognition fail to stop and think what real recogniz
If a man wants to amount to something in college he should want to do it through his own personality and individuality, through something innate in himself which differentiateates him from others in some given field. If more freshmen on entering the University would realize this fact and apply it, achievements in college would no longer be so empty as they now are. Men can achieve something rather than because of themselves than because of their office.
The method often followed by the underclassman in pursuing his desire for recognition is to seek out that field which he believes leads to the form of recognition he must desires and then attempt to adapt himself to the work demanded of him. Admitting he succeeded in his ambition it then becomes all too frequently the case that it is the office that is great, and then attempt to become a more great by preceding men of his passes its halo of honor over the man who wanted it simply for the honor it contained, not because he desired to serve the University through it, or make it greater through his own individuality. More often, however, the man simply fails in his ambition because rarely does a man succeed in severe competition unless he be sincerely interested in the work he is doing for the sake of the work itself, the positions they could be greater, or if more men in starting on their conquests would let themselves be guided by their natural interests, achieve along the line in which they were personally interested and make the achievement itself not themselves great through the name of an achievement. Every generation in the University sees a change in what is considered to be the high honors at which there are also men with sufficient character to maneuver in situations great through themselves. With positions of recognition as unstable as they must be in an ever changing mass of men such as composes a university, a man of real strength of character need not gain a previously recognized high office to attain the recognition every human being craves for his work. He can do his work for its own sake and if he really accomplishes something in his independence man can take his greatness from him. He can take his greatness from him of true value to the University, and taken something from it for himself. This is the true greatness men should seek—Cornell Sun.

Good morning. Or do you speak to those fellows who do not belong to your fraternity or social set or who must be content with what the "stu-
ment" is for them on the Saturday Evening Post, or the best preceitably calls the 'ready-made suit?' After all, you cannot afford to be too familiar, or you will have those bothersome fellows recognizing you when some one descends to invite you into a touring car. To commemorate this event, the must keep himself a little aloof, and above all, betray no interest in or sympathy with the ambitions or difficulties of the common run. Besides, you might in that case feel called upon to give some assistance. Hold yourself in check at all times. The people you desire for fellowship and interest in the people draw you into the degradering habit of associating with just anyone. Is this your creed?—Purdue Ex-
