The Daily Kaman wants to picture the undergraduate students rather than merely printing the news by standing behind her.

Solomon says: NEBRASKA OUR GUESTS says: "Better is a dinner of herbs where love is, than a stalled ox and hatred therewith." NEBRASKA OUR GUESTS When the Cornhuskers reach Lawrence Saturday let us remember that we are the hosts and they are our guests. We should treat them royally for this reason if for no other. Remember two years ago how they stopped in Kansas City after defeating our eleven and sent a big bouquet of flowers and messages of comfort to our own "Tommy" Johnson who was then lying near death in a city hospital? a city hospital: Not so very long before that "Tommy" had run some seventy yards for a touchdown, administering to Nebraska a bitter defeat on her home grounds. some grounds. Let's forget past differences as they did two years ago and while our football team is playing theirs consider them as worthy rivals and as our guests. Now why in the name of good clothes didn't some more of us try out for the band? WEAR THE COLORS Why not help inspire our football team with a great display of our colors in the bleachers? Let every loyal Kansan wear the Red and Blue in some form at the game Saturday. the breach. Emphasis has always been placed upon the rooting and the effect of the rooting cannot be overestimated. But when a player looks into the bleachers and sees the Red and the Blue worn by thousands of loyal supporters with their armbands, umbrellas, or pennants, he feels inspired at the thought of the trust that has been placed in his hand and fights the game to the finish. A Pennsylvania girl died recently while washing dishes and now it may be expected any minute that some reformer will land a solar plexus blow on the University domestic science department. ARE WE GOING BACK? From all reports last Sunday was a red letter day in the Lawrence churches. It was University Day and special preparations were made for students and members of the faculty. Every church was crowded both morning and evening. It was a good thing, but the question now naturally arises whether or not we will wait for the next annual University Day before we go back. Those who enjoyed themselves and considered the time well spent should try going next Sunday and then keep going. Those who felt ill at ease and out of place should try it again in order to become better acquainted with the atmosphere of the church. The student who feels awkward in church is lacking in something, not the church. THAT FRIDAY RALLY It is "up to" the students to have a football rally Friday that will make visiting alumni feel at home. A painful lack of enthusiasm has been exhibited in chapel this fall and the 1913 freshman is almost ignorant of the way we usually do things. It is an established fact that enthusiasm of the students did much toward defeating the Tiger last year and a gigantic rally tomorrow will go far towards the defeat of things Nebraskan. Let's get stirred up and then stir things up generally for the old grads. As you have doubtless surmised, Saturday's affair will make the Mexican broil look like a Faculty Ladies' Tea. WOULDNT IT BE GREAT Last week several large endowments were made to different educational institutions, John Hopkins receiving approximately $1,500,000; Barnard College $200,000; and Wellesley College $200,000, besides several smaller bequests. State universities, however, were conspicuous by their absence among those receiving gifts. pits. When Harvard needs a new dormitory a thousand alumni ask to share in the honor of raising the money. Wouldn't it be great to have to turn away a few old Kansas alumni because the University did not know what to do with their proffered philanthropies? Prof. E. M. Hopkins of the English department is to be congratulated upon his appointment as a special commissioner of the United States Bureau of Education to continue his investigations of the teaching of English in high schools. His findings, based on the study which he has made of the situation during the last five years, have brought him into national prominence and have been of value in pointing the way to more efficient methods of handling the English work. SPIRIT There is no place in the grandstand today or at any time for the man who does not see the necessity of cheering when so many others are doing it for him or for the individual who sits like a bump on a log in morbid fear of making himself spicuous by preserving a fair other than those bound young gentleman of twenty-one or two, if afraid to perform a single undignified or independent action, may be less objectionable than slang, noisy college heroes of the story-books, but he is just as far removed from the happy medium. Let every man have some time sing and cheer as he has never sung before. Yale men within and without the side-linees are called upon to do their part.-Yale News.

CHEMISTRY The science which treats of the elemental properties of substances, and of their reactivity. Heat—Atmosphere—Sound What is meant by Chemistry? **Dear** What did the ancients consider to be the Elements? The greatest number are metals; five are gases, or fluids in the form of air; the others can only be described as liquids. We see around us, including the air we breathe, are compounds of some of these elements. *Chemical affinity* not known C Chemistry has made known about airy. the REFERENCE of fire, air, earth and water as the four elements. as the four elements. 3—How many elementary substances are The natural attraction of different kinds of matter for each other, by which they combine to form molecules, is the combination of a combination of hydrogen with oxygen. The process of converting certain material into glass by fusing them together by heat. 4—What is their nature? 6. What is chemical decomposition? The reaction into their original elements. 5 What is chemical affinity? A spontaneous arrangement of particles into irregular shapes. Original electron? 7 — What is crystallization? 9—Is the art of glass making ancient? It was developed in modern times that glass has been brought to a high degree of perfection, as is seen in the finer kinds of crystal. 10—Explain common use of the combining of some substances with oxygen, attended with red heat, and usually with flames, whence it follows that the oxygen is in a fire. In blowing a fire, it is the rush of oxygen which is the true cause of the fierce blaze. 10—Explain combustion.

Dean Green says he is ignorant or any such incident. Butuner tancy or fact it is,as "uncle Jimmie" says an account ofa most wonderful play." theaccountis from a recent issue orCollars.) BLISS'S WONDERFUL RUN TO TOUCHDOWN "the most extraordinary play I ever saw made," said a western man ouss of kansas now nearly as famous as soldin Ward Bissi, the novice, as was in the days when he was the kid star at Lawrence. Kanse was paying the Trasken Indian senator and og keawater was then a member of the team. Late in the second night Keawater got the ball on his own quarter back's tumble, and went charging down the field like a freight engine. Bliss was just fast thing between him and him, as nung down to his tackles, he must have seen in the big Indian carried the ball in a loose way, for instead 'tackling the Indian, he snatched the ball and, rising from his knees to face the mass of both pumps, puned the field. He saw an Indian player there, he said afterward, whom he thought would put the ball on side, and enough Kansas line not yet fully away from the scrimmage point to down him with some forty yards' loss to Haskell. The Indian player got the ball and shot off to the left without interference. Bliss, after the kick, has spun down the field, and it was he first faced the runner close to the side lines. Again just once he tackled, he shifted and enchanted the ball, and with a clear field reached the Indians' five-yard line before he brought out from behind he heaviest hit the ball out of his club. Another Indian got it and down the field. This time interference formed and there were five men grouped to break it, so that a pushing, pulling mass formed around the ball. Suddenly it shot up in the air, and Bliss caught it. Ten seconds later he crossed the goal line without being touched." The way of the transgressor is hard on the joy rider—N. Y. Times. PUSSY A GOOD MASCOT Two years ago the University of Toronto played Ottawa College the opening game of the season. The University lost. After the game, as the players were going into the dressing room a black car ran across the field. Impelled by a strong punch some of the Varsity men chased the feline and captured it. So strong was their hunch that they boxed it up and carried it back home. The cat was nursed through the entire season, and as a result (?)
