"EUROPEAN WARS ARE BAD FOR AMERICANS"
Mr. Davies of London Says Quabbles Across the Atlantic Affect Industry and Capital in the United States
HE LIKED THE UNIVERSITY
UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS, WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON, NOVEMBER 5. 1913.
After Visiting the Different Buildings, the Chapel Speaker Who Was Late, Was Surprised
"Armament's curb industry and European war budgets draw capital from American markets," says Langdon Davies who failed to appear in chapel yesterday morning in rived in Lawrence at 11:45 a.m. he and his friend were in the afternoon. He was the guest of the Knife and Fork club last night.
Prof. D, C. Croissant of the extension department entertained Mr. Davies while he was here. According to Professor Croissant the students have missed one of the most interesting lectures of the year. Mr. Davies, after his trip of inspection over the University with Professor Croissant, spent an astonishing over the building with particular interest those departments that are not in use in the English schools from which he comes.
Mr. Davies was to have spoken on "International Conclusion." When asked why he came to America to discuss this question he replied." The moral force of America, where the Peace Idea is so strong and when Europe affectionate, can be similar in the invulnerable for our campaign in Europe. The policy of as great a nation as the United States is enough to turn the tide of opinion in the European countries. Europe is today going bankrupt, and the reason is, as is usually the case, in her hands. The mass of taxation is ever on the increase, and the mass of that taxation is for war and armament, neither of which can benefit the lives of our people."
DISCUSSES MISSION OF COUNTRY PAPER
Mrs. Jarrell Tells Students About Work of The Rural Newspaper —"Names Are News"
Again, in speaking of country newspaper work, Mrs. Jarrel said the two first things she learned were patience and self-control. "I learned the necessity of a way to keep track of my check, and I learned that names constitute news. The more names you can crowd into a paper the better it will be liked."
Students in the department of journalism heard the newspaper discussed from the standpoint of a woman yesterday afternoon when Mrs. Myra Williams Jarrel, of Topeka, a newspaperwoman familiar with journalism in all its arts, spoke. The mission of the country news in the country home was one of the points emphasized by Mrs. Jarrel.
"Living in a city all my life, I had no idea about the starved life many of the farmers' wives lead until I learned it through country newspaper work," she said. "The farmer's wives ask for her paper and in it winks a friend." Paper day is made of a gloom or a day of cheer. Endless little things may be written which will help make her life more bearable."
Herself a successful feature story writer, she also spoke of the work that helped her.

K. U, Athletes Hope to Win Conference Cross Country Race at Lincoln Saturday, Six Universities Competing
Material From Each Grade Stack Up O. K.-Four Captains Want More Material
INTER CLASS RACES COMING
The Varsity track men are working hard all this week in preparation for the conference cross country races at Lincoln Saturday, and the annual interclass track meet on November 11, the following Tuesday.
There is much speculation as to the probable make-up of the team which will represent Kansas in the all-valley race Saturday. The Jayhawkers came out third in the contest at Columbia last year, and anxious to better understand this off the first honors. The Missouri Tigers, the team which won the 1912 contest, are not rated nearly so strong as they were last fall, and the real battle should be between the Cornhuskers and the Jayhawkers for first place in the long race. Neither Coach Hamilton, nor Dan Hazen, the Varsity cap has been able to fill the spot, will represent Drake, Ames, the Kansas Aggies, or Washington, the other four contenders in the big event, and, with a bunch of dark horses, may upset all
DAN HAZEN, Track Captain
Inter-Class a Week Later
Each class is lining up its men for the annual inter-class meet to come a week later. The rivalry between the four divisions has been very keen in years past, and we know why the contest this year should not be the hardest fought of all.

(Continued on page 4)
Captain Hazen leads the seniors, and according to him it's going to be a lead to victory. Danny confidently doesn't see how his men are going to lose. Vincent Cissna, the spinner, Pauley, the pole vaulter, Spreier, and Perry, a hurdler, will be mainstays for the upperclassman.
Junioris Are Strong (1)
Ray Edwards, a specialist in interesting from theains to the two that captures the juniors. "Nuts" Hurst and Kirk Hilton form the body-guard around which Edwards will build up his squad. However it is impossible for three men to win a track entirely through these columns issues an urgent appeal for more material.
The sophs have not yet chosen a captain. Bonny Reber, end on the Varsity football eleven, will probably be named for the position if the team wins or loses. The sure of 10 points in the weights, Elswick good for 6, three third places in the distance events, Flake showing well for a place in the quarter and half, and McKay, a 5 point possible, would take task (Continued on nare 4)

WILL END INSPECTION TRIP AT MO.-KAN. GAME
Fifty Engineers Plan Journey to Visit Bridges, Dams, Shops— And Then That Big Tiger Tail Twisting
GO TO KEOKUK AND ST. LOUIS
Senior Electricals, Professors, Other Seniors and Underclassmen Will Compose Party-Week's Trip
The itinerary of the trip takes in the hydro-electric power plant at Keokuk, Iowa, several engineering accomplishments at St. Louis, Mo., and other places in the country. The members of the faculty will accompany the students.
An inspection trip by more than fifty engineers, including the Missouri-Kansas football game at Columbia, Mo. Nov. 22, is being planned by the seniors in the School of Engineering. It is already certain that at least half that number will go.
The School of Engineering practically requires students to visit some large bridge, dam, or other big work of an engineer, but the experience across the Mississippi river at Keokuk, Iowa, is the second largest in the world, several seniors wished to inspect it and the students have worked up enough enthusiasm in the plan to get more than twenty-five students to join the ship will include the tailtwisting spectacle at Columbia is an added inducement.
At present it is planned to start from Lawrence Monday, Nov. 17, visit Keokuk on Tuesday and Wednesday, St. Louis on Thursday and Friday, and Columbia on Saturday. The department will accompany the team. The railroad fare will approximate seventeen dollars.
The senior electricals and most of the senior civils will make the trip, it is said this morning. Enough seniors from the other departments and underclassmen will be ready to leave when the train pulls out, the boosters of the plan say, that at least two special coaches will be filled.
COUNCILS WILL KEEP DICIPLINARY POWER
Student Government Organizations to be Granted Authority at Next Council Meeting
The control over student discipline last year granted the Men's and Women's Student Councils, which was not delegated again this year by the University Council owing to the delay occasioned by the fact that will be again granted without doubt according to Chancellor Strong.
It has recently developed that the two councils have in reality no disciplinary power yet this year, the same being withheld until a committee of three, to be appointed by Chancellor Strong, should revise and restate the rules including the reference to student freshman caps. The University Council must pass on such revised statements and the matter will come up at the next council meeting.
