And have you secured written permission from Mrs. Eustace Brown, and filed a statement of your intention three days beforehand, giving the name of your chaperon for the occasion? No? Then you are reminded that all those proceedings are required by law, and that hereafter no delinquency will be tolerated, according to Mrs. Eustace Brown. Because so many were unfamiliar with the ruling, Mrs. Brown says she has been lenient, but she considers that it is time now that everybody realized the situation and prepared to comply with the conditions. First, written permission to give a dance or party must be secured from Mrs. Brown. Then a blank form must be filled out and given to her at least three days before the party takes place, giving the name of the chaperon and other designated information. In case no chaperon is named, Mrs. Brown will attend in her capacity as official chaperon for all social functions attended by men and women of the University. The forms are put on file so that at the end of the year they will make a complete record of student parties. Now comes a request from Mrs. Brown. All those who have been in charge of dances and parties this fall and have neglected to fill out the required blanks and give them to her are requested to come to her office at once and file the necessary information. Mrs. Brown's hours are 9:30 to 11:30 a.m. and from 2:30 to 1:30 p. m. every day. BUILD AN ANIMAL HOUSE! Call for the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals! Anyone who will take the trouble to walk over to Fowler Shops and look at the animals cooped up over there will say it's a shame! In their quarters the poor brushes get neither air nor exercise, in sufficient quantities, and while they do not suffer acutely, they become so unhealthy that they are not even fit for the laboratories. Not long ago an attempt was made to get them better quarters, but no available place was found on the campus. For a small sum an animal house could be built, large enough to accommodate those that are brought in and to raise others to supply the demand. The present method of having each student bring in his own specimen results in the kidnapping of many pet dogs and cats and so arousing the just indignation of their owners. Animals are necessary in some branches of scientific investigation, but there is no excuse for obtaining them unlawfully and treating them inhumanely. The Daily Kansan makes mistakes. Every now and then it twists up a date or a proper namé, and some times it authorizes such statements as "German songs were sang." CONCERNING ACCURACY But there is a reason. List to the alibi of a city daily and remember that the Daily Kansan is a little brother of the big city paper and conducts itself a whole lot like it. "In a big newspaper office at night," says Ralph Pulitzer of the New York World, "166,000 words are written by a large proportion of 2,000 different contributors; 54,000 words of this come in by wire, 20,000 words by telephone. These latter are written by four rewrite men, 113,000 words are brought in by forty reporters and various news associations, and the whole mass of 166,000 words is read and handled in six hours by twelve copy readers and reduced and condensed to 60,000, from 166,000. "They are put in type by fifty-six linotype operators at a rate of sixteen words a minute and are printed at the rate of 120,000 papers an hour. This fearful pressure, which competition enforces and which the public demands, should make people sitting comfortable at their breakfast tables a little more charitable than they are in flaying 'the wanton inaccuracy of a reckless press.'" Missed by the Oread Board of Censorship L. H. A. G. SWAT MISSOURI!! Now is the time for all old grads to come to the aid of their Varsity squad. It is painful to acknowledge but the fact is that Kansas didn't gain enough ground in the Nebraska game to cover a set of onions. --we will duke up their weep and wall, And we'll kill the hide and nail it up in Kansas (Chorus) Three cheers for old K. U. Three cheers for the team, Fly into the line boys And let the Jay Hawk scream, We will rally round the flag boys The crimson and the blue shouting Rock Chalk Jay Hawk fo Germany and the Allies could possibly acquire much valuable information on skirting the ends and line of the dam, and that they could cook stands at the Missouri game. It is a good thing for the Germans hat Halligan is in neutral Nebraska instead of in Ireland. “Austrians retreating but winning”—German press report. Which reninds us that we slipped up in notaving that Nebraska-Kansas football report go through a war office first. The trouble with the Nebraska football team is that "it is all dressed up with no place to go." JAY HOUSE REMARKS: "One K. U. captain, who does not wish to question the undoubted prowess of the Nebraska team, thinks it should be subjected to an educational test before the two teams meet again. His notion is that no Nebraska student who cannot read and write should be permitted to play against Kansas. And his further observation touching the matter is that such test would eliminate about half the Nebraska team." The war seems to be taking "many" out of Germany. Let us hope that it will also extract the military "germ." BRING ON THE DEMERITS "German songs were sang," sung out a cub on his tuneful typewriter, and the man on the copy desk brung the story to the linotype just as it had been wrote. Although we did not meet Dr. Mabel Ulrich on her recent visit when she announced that spoons are poor food, she said she a guess that she is a spinister lady. If we are to believe the headline "Spooners Poor Students," why is it, we desire to ask, that "Spooner Gets New Books?" Nor can we refrain from remarking in this connection that since he was unable to stand the proceedings in the dissecta rooms, he must have found the course in medicine too stiff. Barba, the Filipino student who enrolled this fall in the School of Medicine, is rapidly taking on local office. He has switched to the law school. At the St. Louis House yesterday we found one of the waitresses preparing for the football crowd by holding balls which so dazzled Jianli Street. If the K. U. team displays half the pep shown by the women at their Wednesday night rally there won't miss Missouri team after the game. The chances are highly in favor of the Mizooz supporters experiencing a little of the ache which came our way last Saturday. "Many a family tree," says the Detroit Free Press, "has produced a nut." To say nothing of a lemon occasionally. With South Africa rebelling and Egypt threatening a bothersome question in England is what will the Hindu? That Nebraska game played whale with the chance of loyal Kansas students doing their Christmas shopping early. Germany announces that she sympathizes with Belgium. We sympathize with Missouri, too. OUCH! "Saddle and Sirloin" is the name of a club at Ohio State which would be appropriate for the average Lawrence eating house. They make no distinction between the two here either. After the Missouri game there will be nothing distracting at K. U. until the exhibition of art in the Ad. building next spring. NO MORE DANCES AT F. A. A. Never again will a student party be given at F. A. A. Hall, on whose commodious spring floor so many dances have taken place. Though the ruling seems sudden the reason is a good one. It is F. A. U. Hall now. Suggestion was made at one of the fraternity houses that a baby from Belgium be cared for, but after a letter of condemnation decided not to adopt a Belgian heir. "Attention, boys and girls!" Get your teeth right before Thanksgiving."—Dental ad in Neodesha Register TIMELY SUGGESTIONS OUT SPAKE SLY HORATIUS Those "didy studios" I was reading about, are they what you call weak-end parties? A PADDLE FEST? "Still The Counties Line Up For Clubs."—Headline. Tune, "Battle Cry of Freedom." We're the boys from old K. U. We're ten times a hundred strong Shooting, the battle cry of Kunma and Gwangsi. We will twist the Tiger's tail We will make him fly and wait shouting Rock Chalk Jay Hawk for Kansas. Oh Missouri thinks we're weak But we'll show them that we're Oh Missouri thinks we're weak For that's the kind of men we have in Kansas. Our team is tried and true Loyal to the red and blue Fighting the Tigers for old Kansas. REFLECTIONS OF A PROFESSOR IN A SMALL COLLEGE Browsing Around Spooner (Chorus) We've got the team boys Does the teacher have any right to ask for better pay or easier conditions? To answer this question, we should look a little further into his personal life. A few months ago, I awoke one morning with an acute case of rheumatism which was so painful that I could not get out of bed. I went to the medicine of a jake and was at my work again in a day or two, but this rheumatism has never completely left me. I do not anticipate any great amount of Richard Harding Davis in all his career as a war correspondent never had a closer call than in his recent experiences with the German army in Belgium. He was arrested as a spy and treated as a spy, and only by the barest good luck escaped with his life. He tells the story in his article in the December (Christmas) Scribner. He was sent on his way to Brussels with a ticket of leave across which was written: "To be Treated as a Spy." The character has scenes of humor, and it will be interesting reading if the copy of the magazine which Mr. Davis says he will send, ever reaches the hands of a certain German officer, called by Mr. Davis "Rupert of Hentzau." "I hope the Allies do not kill Rupert of Hentzau before he reads it! After that!" We've got the team boys We've got the yell, We'll beat Missouri We'll beat her all to hell. We will sing Rock Chalk Jay Hawk, And we'll sing Jay Hawk K. U Rock Chalk Jay Hawk K.

I am persuaded that my naturally vigorous system would have handled this little touch of rheumatism in a few days if it were not for the fact that I have practically no reserve stehen, I have realized ever since this little attack that I have been overworking and perilously near the breaking point. BOYLES, - 725 Mass. Now, just suppose that this rheumatism did not leave, but persisted in growing worse? Suppose the doctor forbade me to teach for a year and ordered me to go to some hot springs for a week or two. Suppose for all sometimes I think of my life insurance and wish it were ten times as much. What would become of my wife and baby if anything should happen to me? What should we do if I did have to quit teaching for a year? In the midst of such situations I should start out, and such situations are not good when one is not yet thirty.—Raymond Bellamy, in the November Atlantic. AT FRANCISCO & CO. 812 Vt.
