Phone, Bell K. U. 25 Address all communications to UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN Lawrence, Kansas.
Entered as second-class mail matter September 17, 1910, at the post office at Lawrence, Kansas, under the act of March 3, 1879.
It is impolite now to hint at what you would like for Christmas. You should have done that before the first of December.
The Daily Kaman aims to picture the daily life of a student in Kansas to go further than merely print the names of friends and family members of the University. It also aims to help students to be clients to be cheerful; to be charitable; to be problem solvers to help users in all, to serve problems to help users in all, to serve the ability of the students of the University.
THURSDAY, DEC. 3, 1914
The batting averages for last season won't last much longer, but there's quite a time to go yet on tables of all-star elevens in football.
"You knew your lesson today,' said the head of the team accusingly "Yes, captain."
"Well, let it pass this time, but it looks as if you were neglecting your football."
In addition to our feminine cheerleader, K. U. might also claim the greatest woman marathon runner known. There is a girl in school here who runs up bills, runs down her neighbors, and is always running in debt.
LISTEN, JUNIORS!
The Jayhawker committee appointed by President Willard Burton of the junior class from the juniors to act on the 1916 Jayhawker panel proposition voted unanimously to put the proposition through. The big argument in its favor is the fact that next year the seniors will be up against the same disparagement in numbers that the seniors are this year and anything put through this fall which will help this year's Annual will help the Annual of next year in the same way.
All members of the junior class will be given a chance to vote on the proposition and they should support the committee. It is not only a vote for a better Jayhawker this year but is a vote for an improved Jayhawker in 1916, and is a vote for more publicity and University recognition for the junior class.
A zealous student of the sorl Julian Street so touchingly describes as typical of the University of Kansas, rushed into the library at ten o'clock this morning, dove into the stacks and presently emerged with two big books. He was eager to get busy in the pursuit of knowledge, and looked around for a chair. But alas, there was no chair. To be sure, there were plenty of room for them, especially along the north wall. Even one or two of the long tables could have accommodated more chairs.
Our hero searched in vain for a place where he could sit down and get a strangle hold on his books Happy thought! He could put his book on a radiator and read standing up. No sooner said than done. But the radiator was too hot, and he had to give up that project. He next moved to the case containing the esteemed encyclopedia britannica and deposited his load on top of that. But no sooner was he comfortably settled than freshmen began to descend from every direction, determined to read those very books and no others. With a sigh he picked up
WE NEED MORE CHAIRS
his load and started out again.
After several unsuccessful attempts to find a place in the reading rooms, upstairs and down, he finally repaired to the stacks and sat down on a cold stone window sill to study. Here a librarian found him and reminded him that the rules forbid loitering in the stacks! With a groan of despair our hero cast his books to the floor, fled to class unprepared, flunked a quiz, was severely reprimanded by his professor, and died of a broken heart, complicated by a cold he had caught sitting on the window sill.
Moral: We need more chairs in the library.
College Spirit
Since the victory of the Missouri football team over Kansas there has been a great deal of talk about the reason for the reversal of form which Kansas has shown, not only during the season just closed but for the past two or three seasons. The alumni of the institution are saying a great many harsh things about the faculty of the university "domineering" over the student body, repressing all exhibitions of what is called "college spirit" and otherwise concluding to a condition which is not contemplated by the alumni with equanimity. There has been a good deal said about the "lack of part of the team and the lack of enthusiasm on the part of the student body. Chancellor Strong has been criticised in some quarters for "smiling" when the team went down to defeat before. Missouri and for putting a stop to what are generally called "rallies."
On the other hand, more conservative commentators, not confined by any means to the opponents of the Kansas team, have declared that Kansas lost because Missouri player better ball. Disinterested critics have declared that the team has no won simply because he is not good enough to win, and that it is not enough to win because university authorities have not provided adequate facilities for getting together a winning team. Midway between these views is that of those who contend that the lack of enthusiasm on the part of the student body has prevented the team with the confidence which such a loss would half the battle in athletics. Whole outside any of these views is the dilemma of those virulent critics, frankly hostile to the university, who declare that sharp practices in the past were largely responsible for some of the more notable victories, and that since these practice hazards have been experienced, Coachnel Strong the team is playing to its real form and, though possible downward by inefficient direction other teams are able to beat it.
In this multiplicity of views it is impossible to domgatize and to declare oracularly that one or the other is absolutely accurate. The friends K. U. want it to win when he wants it, to insist on honesty and honorably. They insist on the unrestrained manifestation of all the courteous which does not trench upon rosm, which does not countenance unfairness in any sense and which does not interfere with the prime purpose of the university itself, which pursues not the annual defeat of Missouri or any institution in foot ball or any other sport.
It may be fairly argued that college students are neither mollycdes nor hooligans, and that they should not be treated as the first or tolerated as the second. It may be further fairly argued that the development and properly directed expression of college spirit is of vital importance to the success of any university, and that the young men and women who attend such an institution should be treated as such until they believe that they should not be. The chief purpose of the University of "Kansas is that of educating the young men and young women of Kansas. That purpose can and should be achieved without either crushing out legitimate college spirit or fostering one which is detrimental to its best interests. If this end can be attained and Kansas meets its athletic superiority at the same time, and good, in the opinion of its best student, all is not lost and the university is not going to the bowwows because the students do not "take the town" or get tonsilitis cheering for a losing team, nor because the team loses on its demerits, whatever the reason therefor—Kansas City Journal.
An exploring expedition to Egypt was dispatched Sunday by University of Pennsylvania for the purpose of studying Egyptian history and architecture. The expedition is headed by Dr. Clarence S. Fisher, formerly of Harvard. It was thought that it would not be safe to start the expedition on account of the European war, but advices from Egypt stated that there would be no danger in carrying on the work

Dr. S. J. Crumbine, secretary of the State Board of Health, Dr. J. J. Sippe of Topeka, Prof. E. H. S. Bailey, Prof. W. J. V. Deacon, and Dean L. E. Sayre of the University faculty were speakers at a special meeting of the state board of health on May 24, 1970 at Hilton Hotel. The meeting was called by Dr. Crumbine and a variety of technical questions discussed.

University of Kasas is not alone in its complaint of "no spirit." The same conditions exist in Ohio State University, and Captain George L. Converse, a recent chapel speaker, placed the blame on the lack of traditions and unwritten laws at the university.
He said no legends and traditions exist there because of the constant changes in the habit and customs of the students, so that whenever anything has reached the stage where it bids fair to grow into a tradition it is unroofted and something else substituted. Hence the University seems everchanging and, to the old grade, it is never the same school that they knew in their younger days.
MONTANA STUDENT WINS
PRIZE FOR INSCRIPTION
Realizing that teaching is not the only profession open to the women graduates of a university, the Alumnae Association of the University of Louisiana has appointed an Employment Bureau, the primary aim of which will be to "put within easy reach of women graduates who intend to enter professional life, such information as will personalize selection of some vocation for which collegiate training has fitted them."
For the best inscription on a monument erected to the memory of the miners who were buried on the site of the old Henderson gulch camp in Granite county, Montana, a prize of ten dollars was won by a sophomore in the Montana school of journalism. The monument is to be placed in position and dedicated soon by the pioneers of that district to the miners whose memories they wish to preserve. The inscription that won the prize was: "God sent you here to make the wilderness a state. That done. He called you home but left your work for inspiration."
"Teaching as a profession is admittedly suited to the needs of women graduates, but woman's opportunity does not end here," says Mrs. F. E. Coates, chairman of the Bureau. "The experiment has been successfully carried out by the alumnae of other universities; by such organizations as the Chicago College Bureau of Occupation for Women and the Bureau of Occupation for Trained Women, under the auspices of the Philadelphia Branch of the Association of Collegiate Alumni."
