Three days from today Kansas meets Nebraska on McCook field. Both teams are strong contenders for championship football honors in the Missouri Valley. At this game Kansas rosters will be given plenty of opportunity to show what they have in them. Kansas cannot forget the antics of the "Stiehm Roller," nor the fact that she has suffered three successive defeats from Nebaska in the last three years. Nevertheless, we are going to act the part of good sportmen Saturday just the same. We are going to show Nebraska there is no policy like good sportsmanship and true politeness, and that a good spirit can prevail in spite of unforgettable rivalry. The sport statistician says that $5 will see the game at Columbia. Let's go! If we win we shall not miss the money; and if we lose—well everybody says riches are no consolation in sorrow. AN IDEA THAT CAN NOT DIE The class memorial movement is again progressing. Since last spring it has been sleeping, but this fall it has revived with renewed vigor, and class memorials can almost be seen lifting their heads on Mt. Oread. It is only a question now as to which class will be the first to claim the glory. --the men. Really the girls ought to devise something they can shut the men out from—and get even, while at the same time, filling the place that is waiting for them in University affairs. The class to place a memorial of some kind upon the campus of the University will be building for itself a double memorial because of the credit due itself for initiating the movement. Let's by all means install the honor system. Then we can leave our lockers open and our bedroom doors unlocked and our knives in the pockets of our trousers when we send them to the pantatorium. TWO GAITS Thisisthewayherushedupthehill Tomakehisighto'clockclass— This is the way he walked back home With a pretty lass. LET THE WOMEN RALLY! If the women of the University are looking for an opportunity for displaying the K. U. spirit why shouldn't the W. S. G. A. or the Y. W. C. A. hold a girls' camp fire on the campus, to get the girls together before the Nebraska game? Now is a good time for the girl to start something all their own Why not a camp fire rally? The season offers every advantage for wenie and apple roasts and the smoke of the camp fires would remind us of those smokers, dear to the heart of THE SPIRIT THAT WINS Oceasonally college students act aburably and make jokes of themselves and their school. Then occasionally they act otherwise. An instance when sort was recorded is the Kansas state University the other day. The Kansas school was very desirous of defeating the Oklahoma university eleven this year. For one thing it wanted to wipe out the sting of two consecutive defeats. For another, it wanted to keep in the running for the Missouri valley championship, as Missouri already had defeated Oklahoma. For a field, it needed to win simply because it always prefers to win, and this season so far it had done nothing else. On top of this, the followers of the Kansas crowd were fairly confident of victory. So when the results of last Friday's contest at Norman were charged up on October 30, Sunflower's state's leading school there was a wealth of disappointment and chagrin that could hardly have been greater. Under these circumstances it might have been expected that the defeated players would have been allowed to trail back home with scant notice. But not so. In the early hours Saturday morning a student with a megaphone made the rounds in the university district, announcing that the train bearing the team would arrive in town shortly before that result was that a big bunch of valiant, loyal supporters gathered at the depot and gave the eleven a rousing welcome when it arrived. This demonstration tends to partially explain why the "dope" about the annual Kansas-Missouri game so often goes wrong. The Jayhawker crowd is never whipped until the referee's whistle blows for the close of the last quarter, and that fighting spirit is instilled into the team mostly by the support it gets from the student body. It needs no imagination to dip a little deeper and say that the success of Kansas, the ability of its citizens to withstand droths and grasshoppers and cyclones and floods is but the grown-ups' exemplification of this omnipresent college loyalty and optimism.—Joplin Globe. OUR DAILY QUIZ Use honor system and grade yourself III. ENGLISH LITERATURE —What is the nature of the English annotae? It is a composition of Anglo-Saxon, Frisian, Danish and Scandinavian words from various other languages. 2- How many words are there in the English language? There are upwards of 42,000, of which 13,000 are Anglo-Saxon, and 29,000 French and Latin the Latin being held in itself with respect to What words are employed in speaking? use our employees. In ordination, employment, Anglo- Saxon words are almost exclusively used; uneducated persons employ only a few employers—soldmen more than a few thousand. - w nat words are employed in literature? Some writers employ more Anglo- sonic words than Greek or simple and nervous Anglo-saxon are found in the works of Bunyan, and in the authorized version of the Bible. The author of the profuse use of words from the Latin? It properly begins with the works of Chaucer and Gower in the 14th century when the language had settled into its present composite form, although still uncoutn in its orthography, and in some of its expressions. (CW203) Addison, Samuel Johnson, Gibbon, and some others of the 18th century. 6- When does English Literature commence? Geoffrey Chaucer was the earliest English poet. He was born in London, 1328, and was employed at the court of Edward III; as an ambassador to Genoa, he visited Petrarch, with whom he had congenitally learned about his Canterbury Tales, which are an ednuring monument of his genius.—Died 1400. They are tales in verse, purporting to be related for mutual amusement by a party of equestrian pilgrims from the Tabard Inn, Southwark, to County. These tales are read and read on account or in an old orthography; but their merit places Chaucer in the first rank of English poets. 8- What is the nature of the Centerbirty Tales? 7—Who was Chaucer? John Gower, a contemporary of Chaucer, was an English gentleman of property, who wrote several poems, some in Latin, and some in English; those in English are admired for their lively expression of natural feeling.— 9—Who was Gower? Some wrote in Latin; others wrote in the Scottish vernacular. The latter was most prominent to the English of Chaucer, and which, with some mobilization, now constitutes what is known as the English translation. 10 — English Literature 10 — When language was employed by the early Scottish King William I. 10—What language was employed by the earl Scottish writers?

BRING THE LID—QUICK Twice they trounced the Fearsome Jayhawk; twice they made him crine and yield; twice they left a far from gay ham hulking on his native field. Then the land of Sooner trembled with the tread of cleated feet, as the Kansas horde assembled there to take a vengeance sweet. Tell their deeds in song and story; put them in the Hall of Fame; honor them with endless glory; shout aloud each mighty name; crown each man with wreathes of laurel; such as greeted heroes old; deck each one with tributes floral; let their prowess oft be told. Bennie, taught by Fielding Yost, did send his valliant Soonets down 'gainst the team that Kansas boasted; the Jayhawk to a brown. Score? 'Twas twenty-one to seven when the smoke of battle cleared. How they told it to high heaven! How those Sooner Rooters cheered! Ah me, I'm an ouest, I fear. It's a long way to Norman from here. But I tell you I eyed with a feeling of pride that score against Kansas this year. I remember distinctly, I do, when my days spent in college were few, that the Jayhawker won—the old son-of-a-gun—every time that he tackled O. U. But now that's all over, it seems; the Sooners have realized their desire and I have forth a challenge to the Fearsome and a series of horrible screams.
