Address all communications to UNIVERSITY DAILY KANBAN, Lawrence. FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 15, 1912. One good man on earth is better than an extra angel in heaven. From the Chinese. YELL YOUR BEST. You who are fortunate to be able to go to Nebraska, and see the Jayhawkers spring the biggest surprise of the year on the men of Stilch, should consider seriously the importance of your mission. With you lies the opinion that will be formed of the University of Kansas tomorrow. Through your actions the entire student body will be judged. Consequently conduct yourself as a true Kanass should, like a gentleman, a game fighter, and a good winner. Show your spirit. Get into the game with as much fervor as you would if the results of the entire season depended upon it. Drown out the Nebraskans' yells on their own grounds. Make Rock Chalk the one great battle cry, and the Jayhawk team the winner over all. The eyes of two states are upon you; you are playing to a big audience, and a critical one. See to it that the men of Kansas emerge from battle without having felt the sting of defeat, and that the headlines of hundreds of papers comment on the red blooded rooting of the team's followers. Don't forget, this is Kansas' year to win. Grind it into your brain until you are sure of nothing else, KANSAS MUST BEAT NEBRASKA! You who by force of circumstance are forced to remain in Lawrence, send your spirit with the team. And when the men return, be at the station to give them a rousing reception. Winners or losers, they deserve your support, and a welcome on the return from a foreign field is a good way to show that you are behind them. The chance for Kansas men to go to Turkey might be more inviting at some other time. Dr. Crumbine informs us that draughts are not dangerous. However, they sometimes have a marked effect—in other states than Kansas. YOUR COLLEGE PAPER Read your college paper do you? Sure, but whose copy? Ever stop to think that it's rather cheap on your part to be reading someone else's paper? Do you always borrow your text books, note paper and the like? In all sincerity we ask you to call at the office and look over our list of exchanges, and then compare them with the Daily Kansan. After you have done this, we will leave it to you whether or not you can afford to read some other fellow's copy. Treat us fairly anyhow. DO GIRLS LACK SPIRIT? A dozen times or more, it has been brought to the attention of the editor that the girls of the University lace spirit, and to back up these assertion the comparative silence that prevail in the section of the bleachers give over to them is pointed out. Comparisons have been made with the spirit shown by the girls of Wash- burn last Saturday, which are not altogether to the credit of those of this University. Far be it from the Daily Kansan to make such an unworthy comparison, but by some it is believed to be the truth undoubtedly. But if so, why should it be. Surely the girls are capable of feeling pride and love for their Alma Mater, and the fact that they they are not as prone to express it does not mean that they do not have it. Assuming that they are possessed of this Kansas Spirit, wouldn't it be a good idea for them to show it by a little first class rooting when the Jayhawk meets his old enemy, the Tiger, next Saturday? One would think that these were dark days to look at the campus lighte during the daytime. Professor Bailey writes that foreigners live cheaper than Americans, but it must be considered that the boarding house plays a prominent part in life here. Ob, if the students could only stick together like the faculty! NEBRASKA Nebraska is doing a lot of boasting this year about how Kansas will be overwhelmed in the football game Saturday. Rather natural, this boasting. Kansas has heard it many times before now, and the present outburst of it doesn't worry her. A victory by Kansas this year will mean a great deal to bring interest in football back to a normal level. You can help by going to Lincoln as a rooter. Are you going to do it? FOLLOW "UNCLE JIMMY." Missouri Upsets Dope, according to a headline. How clumsy of her A girls' rooter club has been organized at the University of Southern California. USE OF REFERENCE BOOKS Hoe many times have you gone over to the Library to do some reading, only to be told that the copies are all out? Sometimes you are told this when there are about three people in the Library, and you wonder how three people can read four copies. They don't. Someone, somewhere, is sitting with his feet on his desk, chuckling over "having swiped a book." Or someone else is using the book as a tile to keep the samover from spoiling the tabletop. Haw, haw! How we do the university! The copies are limited enough. In some courses there are three books to a class of three hundred—and you must get the work done by Friday. So, in order that "you will have one when you want it" you take the book to your room, to read it when you want it—when you have time. And some of us gather three or four reference books all at once—even if we can only read one, and then start a little fussing circle in the corner. In those schools a man is expected for taking a book from the library. He is worse than the person who steals your watch. He is a community thief. Often thoughtless, we know, but that cannot excuse it. If you have been guilty—stop it. If you see other doing it stop them. —Wisconsin Daily News. OUT OF THE MOUTHS OF WISE OLD BOYS All the students from Southern states have organized a Dixie Club at the University of Missouri. In most schools a man is expelled for taking a book from the library. POLITENESS. Hollow trees are always the stiffest, but the mixtiest light, if sound, can bend. The more exalted a man is by station, the more powerful should he be by kindness. There is no policy like politeness, since a good manner often succeeds where the best tongue has failed. Politeness is most useful to inspire confidence in the timid and encourage the deserving.—Mageon. The Daily Kannan will publish in the Indian interwar after the mode of Constitution. OLD FRIENDS IN VERSE County Guy. The orange flower perfumes the bower. The breeze is one the sea. Ah! County Guy, the hour is nigh. The window looks like he Breeze, bird, and flower confess the hour.

The stars of Love, all stars above, Now reigns o'er earth and sky; And high and low the influence know But where is County Guy? Editor University Daily Kansan, Lawrence, Kansas. Dear Sir:— The student council at Chicago has recommended that all rooters wear maroon hats. The bit of verse entitled "A News paper Guy" which appeared in your issue for November 6th has the wrong credit. It was written by Edwin Meade Robinson, of the Cleveland Plaindealer. Show your "pep" tomorrow. I know of no bit of verse what has been more often imposed upon editors, or that has had a wider circulation. In fact, when I was editor of Judge, I once bought this same verse of a New York newspaper man on the supposition that it was original with him. But now it is clear that it no more than justice that credit should be given to Mr. Robinson for his excellent piece of work. Director of the Department of Journalism of New York University.

This treatment is almost an absolute preventive of typhoid fever. All announcements for this col- lection will be handed to the news editor before 11am. ANNOUNCEMENTS All K.

FIRE PLUGS GET FIRE PLUGS GET NEW COAT OF PAINT NEW COAT OF PAINT The University is fully prepared to cone with the fire fend. The fire plugs in front of Frasar Hall have just been painted and send a silver glitter back to the first rays of the rising sun. They would send silver glitters back to the last long level beams of the setime sun, too. They would also prevent the fall of Frasar Hall interures and prevents them from performing that function. Therein lies the efficacy of the improvement. The fire plugs are to be things of beauty and a joy to those who love the artistic, and the heart of the artist must quiver with joy as he observes their chaste simplicity of design and Note the "silver glitters." An unartistic custodian accuses the beauty of being the primary reason for it. "The darn things will rust out too quick if they can't painted," he said. Mrs. Brown-Smith—Oh, they see so little of each other.—Judge. Mrs. Brown-Smith--They must be very happily married. Mrs. Jones-Robinson—Why do you think so? And perhaps the paint is not silver. It may be merely aluminum or a muddled white. MONEY SAVED on Flowers, Chrysanthemums, Roses or Carnations. Try us C. M.
