Henry Society reporter, Lucile Hildinger As we advance in life we learn the limit of our abilities — FROUDE. ON TO MISSOURI' This is to convince all rooters that they CAN go to Columbia next Saturday with the team if they just THINK so. Care fare's $.35; game $2.00; and then, one must eat, of course, and ride the street car; but $10 should cover everything. Let's all go. We can save that extra quarter thrown away now and then for something we don't need, and by Christmas we'll never miss the price of going. Besides, you can earn all that back during Christmas vacation through the extra "pep" you'll get from seeing Missouri beaten and from knowing your support and rooting helped win. Let's all go. THEY CAME HOME Simplified spelling is said to have been adopted by the University of Missouri. But that will not help them to spell "victory" next Saturday. Last year the first annual home coming was held at the time of the Missouri game and the attendance of the graduates was large. It was beyond all expectations. The fact that the game was with the ancient Missouri rival helped some and the day was ideal. The K. U. spirit is irrepressible, and no inclementy of weather can keep away an old grad when his University team is fighting a decisive battle. This year the homecoming was set for the day of the Nebraska game. And even though the day was cold and drizzly and the prospects for a fast game were not the best many came back. At the University of Pennsylvania a dental smoker was recently held, and nobody was allowed to look down in the mouth. An announcement states that the Sachems will meet at the Sigba Nu house. Better keep that copy read out of the draught. OVERCHARGING OUR GUESTS Many visitors here Saturday complained of the treatment given them by restaurants and cab drivers. The ground for the complaint was in the advanced prices that were charged for service. The same problem arose last year at the Missouri game. Is it right that visitors should be subjected to such treatment when by reason of their numbers they are compelled to put up with mediocre service? A Virginia lexicographer has just invented another definition for a monocle. He says a monocle is a pane of glass worn in one eye so hat its wearer may not see at one time more than he can understand Hello Bill! You are just the "V" I have been looking for to square that Columbia trip. A comparison of 625 star athletes of the Naval Academy with 580 non-athletes in both cases from the classes of 1892-1911, shows that apparently the non-athletes are in better physical condition than the athletes The Gargantuan appetite of a great university for money claims justification in the case of Columbia by something better than its recent growth and demonstrable physical needs. The report of our university emphasizes, not statistics of reguler emphasizes, not statistics of regler expenditures, but the thoroughness and variety of the University's service. President Butler can point with pride, on the one hand, to the concern felt for the character, preparation, and homogeneity of the 800 students of Columbia College and the 600 of Barnard; to the productive scholarship of faculty; to the prosequence with the universities of the Old World. On the other, he points out that the enrollment of 3,692 students in the summer session, 1,684 in Teachers College, 1,828 in extension teaching, and 1,913 in evening technical classes, has brought the registration up to 13,120—an extraordinary total; to the prosecution of politics of expansion was formulated, public donations have arisen from a mere dribble to the aggregate of $25,776,704; and that many of the 900 university officers are doing notable work in their association with governmental or voluntary enterprises of various sorts. Columbia, in other words, can go before the giving public upon a concrete basis; some State universities appeal to the taxpayer and that by which the most conservative Eastern colleges have always claimed their clientele—the Nation. The University of Virginia has a new method for getting college yellows and songs. A contest is put upon a competitive basis, and the winner is picked up to one of the football games, which takes place in another city.

PATTEE, CAMPUS OPINION (Communications to the Dily-Karun must be delivered in compliance with the column not mandatory for publication. The column must be addressed to me.) To the Editor of the Daily Kansas: It has been announced that there will be no training trip this year before the Missouri game. One more time they abolished and for what reason? Are not the players entitled to a few days' rest up from the Nebraska game in some out-of-the-way place, where none of the noise and disorder before the game will bother them? NO TRAINING TRIP It has always been the custom of the coaches to take the team away so it would be in the best possible condition for the annual game and ever one knows how beneficial it was. This year the long and tiresome trip to Columbia will be made the night before the game, and the kind of condition will the team be at about the opinion of many that the abolishment of the training trip is not a wise one and shows very little consideration for the feelings of the men who have to fight Missouri. M. SMOKERS Editor the Daily Kaitano frequently given by the University organizations the proper thing for students and professors of a State University? The question will admit of discussion in which will discredit the practice. Editor the Daily Kansan: Many new men who have never smoked come to the University each year. At these smokers they take their first smoke. Should the University of Kansas foster such a practice? Student. Viewed from the standpoint of health, one of two things is evident:—either the students believe that the teaching of hygiene is false or they are too weak to follow it; or the audacity to face science and say, "You know not where you speak," or does he shamely admit that he is not equal to the test? Again what can be said for the coach who does not permit his men to smoke but applaud or at the game muffin his cigar? "FEETBALLING" (Togo continues his remarks) "Are not Hon. Walter Camp and other Supreme Courts doing consider- able to make football more safer?" my ignorantuous Cousin ask it. "Feetballing in Connecticut are like railroading in that same State," I olicate distinctly. "Considerable are being done and nothing accomplished. Reforming Yale are like commissioning Just when we are setting on sidelines with score book, attempting to figure whether death-rate can be more quickly discouraged by semaphore system or electric signal —screach!!—another jarr occur and fractures are picked up by hospice. Only way to make them safer is of solidified steel, which would make them more comfortable but less amusing to see when they bump." "Are you now talking about Pullmans or Variesities?" Nogl ask it. ( "Should they be stopped by law?" be negotiate. "I am useless to tell," I say so. "If railroads was stopped it would discourage much happy education which goes by travel—eoplement, drummers, Wm. Jenny Bryan, and Misty Shrink's Conventions. Also, if you stop feetball you man of America must go to college and young man of America must go to college other saloon for drink beer and sing-song. This would be cheaper for H母, Parent, but young man never look so polished off who learn his education that way. Moreoverly, I am not sure America could get along without learning feetballing in early date of youth. How otherwise could they become sufficiently trained in brutality to take up profession of grown-up life? How Wall Street, choke & throwdown of Life insurance, slam-bang and run-away of politics?" I ask to know! Yes, I say it! Without feetballing America could never learn to do so." "Japan got pretty considerable learning that form of "Both," O snigly calmly. "Both are equally dangerous weasons." "Yes so!" I hola. "But Japan has always had another kind of healthy National Sport to teach her cruelty." "Japan got pretty considerable brave without learning that form of college kick-uu," snuggest Cousin Noël. "What is it?" he require. "Hara-kiri," I pronounce, making suicide motion peculiar to Samurai cut-up. Hopink you are the same "What is?" he require. (Per Wallace Irwin in Life.) The Bible tells us we should love our enemies. I wonder if that is why women always kiss each other. —N. Y. Times. Copyright Hart Schaffner & Marx OLD POWER ENGINE BEGINS LIFE ANEW IN FAR WEST We want you to see them. No other clothes to compare with them. Special values $25, others $18 to $30. Six Star Special Suits at $15.00 Another old landmark in the shape of an antiquated power engine has passed on to better times and will be seen no more on Mt. Oread. It was an old Rudslau Semi-trail car and a landmark about 1887 in the Fowler shops. It went through the fire of 1898 and after being repaired and overhauled did duty for some time after. When the new power plant was built it was used as a station and been sold to western firm where it will begin life over in a planning mill. No more W. S. G. A. dances will be given before Thanksgiving because of the many other events of student interest before that time. The next dance will probably be given the first Saturday after the Thanksgiving holiday. The girls will have to have the members of each student district act, in turn, as hostesses for the succeeding dances.

A certain member of the faculty had a quiz scheduled for tomorrow morning at eight o'clock. His words "boys, between the moonlight and the peg going on lately, the nights to tumultuous times," I think we ought to postpone our quiz until next week. All in favor say I."

Hart, Schaffner & Marx YOU'LL be particularly interested this season in some of the very new "kinks" that have been introduced into our young men's suit models, designed for us by Not only the general effects of fashionable style, and the correctness of fit are right in these clothes; but there are a lot of little points, new ideas in sleeve and shoulder shapes; new things in the waistcoat front and collar; new features in trouser cuffs and waistbands. OTHER SCHOOLS IGNORE THAT MEDIC GAUNTLET The football challenge sent out by the Medics last week has not been accepted by any of the schools yet. There is all kinds of talk around the engineering building, but talk is in the form of undertakings of the "boots" so far. Analyzes Emporia Coal Prof. A. H. Sluus is making an analysis of which were sent in by the Electric Light Co., of Emporia. Swimming contests, teas and a vaudievel show by Swarthmore College "co-eds" were events in the convention of the Intercollegiate Association for Self-Government which was held last week at Swarthmore. Fifty-one girl delegates representing virtually every important girls' college in the east were attending the convention. Herb Coleman, captain of the doctors' eleven says he thinks they have the angoras of the other schools. The Medics had their first practice in suits yesterday afternoon, with Coach Capps present.
