Long visits bring short compliments.—From the Chinese. SONGS Since announcing the contest for songs last week, the Daily Kansan has received several of them, some good, and some approaching goodness. The entire lot will be published as soon as possible, and after being tried out a judgement will be made according to the merits of the respective songs, and according to the favor with which each song meets. It is gratifying to see that the students are taking such interest in the making of a battle cry for the encouragement of the team, and one of the best signs that the Kansas spirit is yet unbroken, despite the abolition of post-chapel rallies. In fact, your real Kansan sights harder when things go wrong than when every thing is pointing to a victory. Such is the spirit that makes the Jayhawkers more feared than any other team in the Missouri Valley. To the real Kansan there is nothing that is dampening to a fighting spirit. Should the team fail to score all season, and should no opposing team fail to score, there would be no lack of spirit, only disappointment. And you, bring in your song. It will be worth while. The students have one consolation. They don't have to pay twelve (12) cents to have their tickets sent to them by registered mail. If Coach Frank's class in boxing should become compulsory we imagine that there would be a good deal of knocking on it. THAT EXTRA DOLLAR Few announcements in regard to the policy of the athletic association have aroused such a storm of protest as the statement that students would be required to pay one dollar extra for reserved seats for the Missouri football game. Since the announcement was made The Daily Kansan has received a large number of communications denouncing the plan. The communications indicate that the majority of students feel that they have been treated unfairly in the matter. It seems to be the opinion generally that the price of student enterprise tickets was raised to include the Missouri game and that the extra one dollar now is an imposition. Manager Hamilton states, however, that the raise in the price of the tickets was not due to the holding of the Missouri game in Lawrence but was necessary to run the various student enterprises in an adequate manner. According to his statement, the charging of a fee for reserved seats is absolutely necessary because of the number of people who will want to see the game and because of a contract with Missouri by which the athletic association is obligated to pay the other school seventy-five cents for every reserved seat. Were the dollar not charged it would not only mean the loss of the money but would mean that the athletic association would have to pay Missouri seventy-five cents for each student admitted. On the other hand, under the pres-ent arrangement students have no advantage over outsiders in choice of seats, except the rooters, who will have a reserved section in the middle of the field. Anyone with the necessary two dollars has as good a chance to get the best seats as the students of the University. This means that all students except those in the rooter's section will be mixed with those from outside the school. The alumni will be given a special section next to the Thundering Thousand and no one but graduates and their families will be allowed there. Manger Hamilton says that it will not be possible to reserve a special section for students, other than rooters. It is necessary, therefore, to reserve your seats at once or you will find the best seats taken by those not connected with the University in any way. The constitutions for county clubs is so prepared that they will be easily handled. Which must mean that the constitutions may be badly bent without showing a break. He had made his "O" on the high school football team, and had also seen the big "K" sweater pictures in Con Squire's windows. Going up to the clerk in the men's furnishings department in a down town store, he asked to see some sweaters. "Some thing plain?" inquired the clerk. "Naw—I want one with a "K" on." Without doubt it is better for the track men to break into prominence than merely to break on the track. "No Monopoly on Sugar," says a head line. But we still maintain that the early riser has a monopoly or syrup at the boarding house. HONORABLE DEFEAT Victory is but incidental to any light. The man who told his friend, I know I won't be able to beat Jim but, it'll make him think he's been through a war" showed the right spirit. Those who never engage in a contest unless they are sure of victory seldom get very far. They are the sort who cannot understand that the person is alive whose feelings are not hurt by defeat. In a university like ours where class officerships, positions on the various student publications, honors of all sorts, are continually being strived for, it is inevitable that there must be but few victors in comparison with the number. If the student engages in the strife with the idea that he will put up a hard, clean fight, no matter what the consequence, he will find the struggle worth while even if defeated. Yet how often does it happen that the victor employs means that are not the means of a gentleman; he wins the point fought for but uses in things far more useful than he uses in standing stand out in a stronger and better light. It is the enthusiasm of the battle that counts, the glory in matching wits and skill, that is the real reward. The man who scarcely ever thinks of the direct victory, the direct advantage, of a contest, is the one who shapes his character along the noblest lines and who will eventually achieve more than his more ambitious opponents. The student who has the largest list of honors to enter in his badger summary may be a cadide beside his seemingly less successful rival—Wisconsin Daily Cardinal. OUT OF THE MOUTHS OF WISE OLD BOYS WAR. How all Europe is but like a set of parishes of the same country; participant of the self-same influences of the same city, the same cities and these glorious wars of ours are but like parish brawls, which begin in the commencement, intoxication, and boasting windows, broken windows, damage, waste, and bloody noses; and which one hopes that it is now in the way towards putting down in some measure.—Carlyle.
