THAT K. U. RALLY
When you go home tomorrow to spend Thanksgiving with the home folks, don't forget to boost that reunion of K. U. alumni and students that you are going to hold in your county during the Christmas holidays.
days.
Mother's mince pie and the big gobbleb Dad has been fattening for your special benefit will taste lots better if you get that country club banquet started before you return.
Remember you can have a rally without having a football game or a University at hand. Let's all boost for K. U. rallies at home Christmas time.
It would be well for next year's team to develop more kickers. We have enough knockers.
A SUCCESSFUL SEASON
What is a successful football season?
No matter if we didn't have an all-victorious team, and even if we didn't beat Missouri, still Kansas has just colsed a football season that no one need be ashamed of.
Battles fought to the last minute, loyal support to the team, winning or losing, good sportsmanship on the bleachers as well as on the field—surely some of these must be part of a successful season.
THAT HIGH SCHOOL PIN
Now, according to the governing powers, the dear old high school pin will have to be discarded along with the picture of "our senior class" and our "H. S." pennant. No more can the loyal high school graduate wear his hard earned letters upon Mount Oread. He will have to keep them to gaze upon when in a reminiscent mood in the seclusion of his own little room. Such rules can hardly be understood by the freshman, but latter he may come to realize that he is merely being assisted in "forgetting those things which are behind," etc., in order that he may seize the better things that are ahead.
AT LEAST THEYE HAPPY
We do not feel nearly so badly about the game Saturday as Missouri feels elated. When so much joy can be given to several thousand souls as Saturday's game gave to Missouri, Kansas is willing for the good of humanity, to take the short end of the score now and then.
BAD ENOUGH ANYWHERE
"Palmount college students captured a spur on the Wichita stree car system last week and gave thei co-eds a joy ride that had all the thrills of the motor car froyle, yet did not cost anything. Three-minute service over the mile track was provided although the company only furnished a car every half hour on the regular schedule.
schedule.
"The idle car was what the students used. Their anties continued many hours, their shouts and laugh-
act bringing the people from their houses. The company turned off the power and notified President Thayer of the college that the students must desist. The motorman took his controller with him on the downtown trips. However, the motormen ed the house where the monkey wrenched it night had just as many joy rides by trolley and just as much fun as they did the night before."
If this had happened at the University wouldn't the newspaper boys have held up their hands in holy terror, and wouldn't the ministers of the state have preached sermons about the wicked state university, and wouldn't the next legislature have chapped a quarter million dollars or so from the appropriation bill?

TEACHING 'EM TO SEW
Two pretty co-eds of the University of North Dakota recently were forced to quit their classes to go to their rooms and sew up their lovely new slit skirts and were ordered never again to appear in classes with the hems of their skirts notched even the tiniest bit.. News Item.
Looks' as though the slit skirt is almost as unpopular in our colleges as the split infinitive.

A Pittsburgh educator would teach he tango and turkey trot as an aid to mathematics. Couldn't do that here or we would all be engineers.
"The collegian's standard of purity in his sports should be the highest." -Walter Camp.
In the editorial column of the Tattler of the Meade high school the question is asked, "Why cannot the high school editors of the state of Kansas have an organization similar to the state association for college editors?"
This is a mighty good scheme and if the Meade Tattler keeps the idea before the other high schools, there is no reason why such an organization can not be started.
GRATITUDE
Thanksgiving day has its special significance and association. It forces a glance at the pages of history; it reminds one of hunger and peril daultessly endured; it celebrates the harvest and the generous earth of the present. But more important than this is implied in Thanksgiving. That should hints of gratitude that should be felt for all the greatest and deepest things of life: for the joys of children; for youth and love; for the joys of parenthood; for the privilege of rearing healthy boys and girls to be noble men and women; for the serene influence of home life; for the warm friendships of years; for the rich retrospects of age and the confluence of a race well run. Nor may the clear vision of gratitude overlook all those elemental things which make life so completely worth while; the aspirations of individuals; the nation's ideals which no surface politics and corruption permanently blunt; the great utilities bestowed by the natural world; the refreshing forests which reflect the spirit; the silent hills which kindle the soul to new great deeds; the blessing of life itself—Colliers.

CAMPUS OPINION
To the Editor of the Daily Kansan:
As No. 16 went through Friday night the students, gathered at the depot sang lustily one of those songs in which the most conscientious do not join.
"EFFECTS OF THE YELL"
To the Editor of the Daily Kansas
A number of the passengers probably had never visited K. U. They do not know the school as it is. Their conception of K. U. is a place where throngs of mad enthusiasts call "Hallejah"; they live in various parts of the state; they give their idea to K. U. to their neighbors. This does not add to the popularity of the school. It is only logical that we find strong opposition to any increased appropriation for the University and maintain the support of the people it behooves us to clean up our songs and yells, and make ourselves worthy of the support of everyone.

An antiliquid matronly dames
A woman of low stature.
Mrs. Hubbard, by appellation,
Proceeded erstwhile to examine her
Intending to give her ossivorous canine a nutritive appetizer:
But when she approached the deposit for victuals in close contiguity,
The cupboard astonished the dame by revealing a perfect vacity,
And so the impoverished canine remained an unsatisfied gorman.
A gentleman indigenous to our nu-
nicipality.
Distinguished by extraordinary wis-
dom, and cognition.
And thus annihilated both his eyes by harsh attrition.
Propelled into a bramble-bush his whole corporality,
Again into a briar-filled corpse he shrewdly superseded,
Perviewing the calamity by which
he'd been assaulted.
He exerted all his potency and vigor of decision;
And repeated conflication quite restored his ruined vision.
Pray pardon our apparent curiosity,

If we interrogate you on your garden's evolution,
Embellished with arxentic bells huge and variegated heraceous.
With corrugated cockle-shells, pelagic and testaceous.
And with captivating maidens all in linear distribution.
A frugal vetegarian, denominated Bater.
A trugal vegetarian, denominated Peter,
had habitually classified himself a pumpkin-ester.
But his matrimonial consort had a wayward disposition
And perplexed him to discover how to make her live discreeter.
At last he tried confining his recal-
kin-eater.
But his matrimonial consort had a wayward disposition.
And perplexed him to discover how to make her live discreeter.
An artist tried confining his recalcitrant young wife.
In the hollow of a pumpkin excavated by his knife,
And imprisoned in this tegument, a cussious position,
He succeeded in preventing indiscrections all her life.
