U. 25. Address all communications to UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN, 418-236-9777. Entered as second-class mail matter September 19, 1810, at postoffice at Lawrence, Kansas, under the act of March 3, 1879. Published in the afternoon five times a week, by students of the University of Kansas, from the press of the department of journalism The Daily Kansas aims to picture the undergraduate life of the University of Kansas, to go further: to be courageous; to play no flies; to be clean; to be cheerful; to be charitable; to be courageous; to three more students. In all, to ask to the best of its abilities the students of the University. TUESDAY, OCTOBER 21, 1913. Life is an arrow, therefore you must know What mark to aim at, how to use the bow— Then draw it to the head, and let it go. —Van Dyke. We don't see how the class "plums" can be called juicy when they were cut and dried before the election came off. BEAT NEBRASKA Kansas has a wonderful chance this year to step into the Big Nine class by defeating Nebraska. We can do it, too, if we just think so. We can do it, too. If we just mean that According to Coach Mosee, we have the best material since 1896, and the foxy old Englishman knows what he is talking about. Coach Frank says the Kansas team found itself Saturday. The rest then, lies with the students. Spirit will do the work, and everything is in our favor. The game will be here; "pep" can be worked up; the team will feel every student is back of it; concerted rooting, encouragement and an every-man-back-of-the-team attitude are what we want. We're not much on this mental telepathy stuff, but if every student in this University gets back of the team, and pulls hard enough, we're going to beat Nebraska here November 15. It's just a matter of spirit—Kansas Spirit. The only quack prophets heard around the Jayhawken camp lately were from Drake. KANSAS CITY STAR JR. The reading public is invited to notice the change typography of the Daily Kansan, starting tonight. In printing terms, the paper is now set "eight on nine," whereas recently it was set "eight on eight," and last year "eight on ten." The difference is in the number of lines of reading per inch and the ease with which the lines are read. Also, we feel you will like the paper better because it is set the same as the Kansas City Star, the best paper in this part of the country if not in the entire United States. We can never be as good as the Star, but we like to feel that we are similar, if only typographically. We knew it would come, that infallible sign of the conference game season: "under the shadow of their own goal." FRESHWOMAN CAPS. The suggestion of Coach Mosse in chapel Friday that freshman girls here wear a certain distinguishing style of cap as is done at Pittsburg meets with our hearty approval. In the interest of fair play we believe that no portion of the freshman class should be shown more consideration, or less, than the other part thereof. If all freshmen, and women, are created equal, let them remain on the same basis of equality. The same arguments in favor of freshman caps for boys hold good in favor of the girls. The same feeling of fellowship in distress draws together those who wear a badge of their class, regardless of sex. We were a freshman once and wore a freshman cap, and had we been a freshwoman we would have worn a freshwoman cap if such had been the custom. There is no reason why there should not be a tradition for the feminine portion of the first year students whether it be the wearing of long caids of hair down the back, or of a characteristic cap or tutton. Conceit Conceit is the most incurable disease that is known to the human soul—Beecher. ONE THING AT A TIME The dance program given out by the Men's Student Council for the band uniform benefit in the gymnasium Saturday night was made the subject of some more or less satirical comment by a downtown paper last week, and the Student Council apparently emerged second best. The honorable satirist downtown didn't go the whole route. Its profession of horror would sound better it dancing as a whole had been denounced, or the present era of ragtime music. In short, because the country is suffering from a ragtime brainstorm, the Student Council is criticised for not selecting classical music for its dance program. Why doesn't the local satirist get down to brass tacks and first take a stand against the barbarous music which at present possesses the country before settling all the vital questions of University policy with one sweeping deluge of humorous irony? Drinking among University of Wisconsin students is on the decline according to recent statements of faculty men who are closely in touch with student life. We are glad of this, not especially because of any moral seruples we may entertain against the practice, but because it is evidence of growing sense and manliness in the university student. WHAT COLLEGE EDITORS THINK my student. Perhaps there is no moral objection to the moderate drinking of intoxicating beverages on the part of those who actually like them. But how many students drink because they like the taste of liquor? A liberal estimate would place that number at about one-third of the total drinkers. The rest drink, because (like the boy who smokes his first cigarette) they consider it a manly thing to do. To the average student the phrase "Come on! Let's have a drink" seems to possess a magic charm. He feels that it contains the whole essence of collegeism, that he must taste of its joys before his university career is completed. If that is your reason for drinking, you are making a mistake. There is all sorts of good fellowship to be found outside of the bar-room. Don't acquire the drinking habit, because you think it is part of the make-up of the college man. The best type of college man leaves it alone—Wisconsin Daily Cardinal. An Arkansas paper has made the suggestion that if the faculty of the University of Kansas really wishes to get rid of the tango, that shocking dance should be given a place in the required course of study—Kansas City Star. Early Genius Proud Father—"I tell you, sir that boy of mine will be a wonder!" Friend (wearily)—"What wonderful thing has he done now?" now. Preserve Father."—Why, the other day he ate all the preserves in the pantry. I overheard him say, as he shemaed the cat's face with the stuff, "I'm sorry, Tom, to do this, but I can't have the old folks suspect me." —Penny Pictorial. The fraternity that, after many trials and tribal- tions, has succeeded in pledging two autos is, ___ Daily Illinois. OUR HABIT The college world moves too much by habit. Like bedroom slippers, habits are comfortable to slip into; but, like bedroom slippers, they lead to dozing in an easy chair. And waking up from a habit is as refreshing as a dash of cold water in the face. a dash of college people entering the library every day is typical of the trend of many college lives, for everybody who goes into the library uses the stairs that lead up to the right. To attempt the left stairs is to feel that you are going on a voyage of exploration. Voyages of exploration are so thoroughly romantic! And yet the average college person makes so few—although we must admit we saw a woman making one down the sophomore men's steps the other day. Particularly in voting are we like the library-goers. We refuse to make a voyage of exploration for a man who can fill student offices with some efficiency; but we let ourselves be led to the ballot-bax by a man who has got us in the habit of thinking he is popular. That is one of our most penicious habits—voting for popular men and letting the efficient men go hang. Popularity is a bubble very carefully blown by the college office-seeker. And we fall into the habit of letting bubbles remain unpricked.—Daily Californian. Sure of His Judgment, Anyhow A girl may not love the man who tells her she is bea- tiful, but she is pretty sure to respect his judgment. *But I don't believe in that.* Boys. Try This Progressive Offspring—Paune, Father! Is that whip sterilized?" —Life A New Answer to an Old Question A New Answer to an Old Question "What would happen if an invariant met an immovable body of science, the "Result," replied the pretty co-od, "would be some very interesting by-products." —Ladies' Home Journal. A very absent-minded professor was busily engaged in solving a scientific problem when the nurse hastily opened the library door and announced a great family event. An Absent-Minded Professor Women's Home Companion We always hate to be insistent but some things are so doolefy! Now for example—is there any same reason why one of a tender age and a befitting tender "down" should attempt to prove to those who don't know him, his advanced and experienced age and his super masculinity by fostering one of those comma-like, auto-strop defying, eye-wearing, germ deceivers to bespatter his countenance in the locality just below the nose—Daily Illini. "The little stranger has arrived, Professor." "It is a little boy," said the nurse, "like a little boy, missed the professor. "Well ask him what he wants." "It is a little boy," said the nurse. The following notice may be observed on the bulletin board at our most fashionable woman's dormitory: "Lost-In Willard Hall, one trunk. Came in this morning, Room 43." We feel sure that the occupant of room 43 will be deeply grateful for the return of her trunk should anyone meet it strolling about the campus.—Daily Northwestern. GIRLS WILL BE—WHAT?
