HOWDY OLD TIMERS The University of Kansas welcomes you, alumni and former students. During the brief span of our annual Homecoming Day, the busy world must get along without you. The worries of your daily life are momentarily forgiving while you revisit old scenes and renew old acquaintanceships. Your hominess vanities as you sit down in the same old bleachers from which you have watched former battles between the skydiver and his ancient enemy, tree Tiger. Home again, and you perhaps you have that faint feeling that it is not the same old home it used to be. You notice a few changes. New buildings have been added to the campus and the young trees you used to know are as much taller you fail to recognize them. Time, whether it has been one year or several years, has made a difference in the physical characteristics of your Alma Mater. But the heart of your institution continues to remain the heart of our institution. The K. U. spirit of your time is the K. U. spirit of our time, only intensified and ever growing. It is a spirit that never diminishes in strength with the transplanting from one group of students to another. As students of today we are fostering that spirit as carefully as we know you did in the old days. So drink heartily of that same spirit while you are here with us and strive that feeling of your own student days. While we recognize your importance and dignity as members of that class of people which is doing big things in the world, for one day let's all mingle together again as students of the same University, banding together in a mutual campaign to put U. K. first wherever we go. We hang out the welcome sign for you as returning members of the University family. ADJUSTING THE TELESCOPE The first big opportunity for many students to "preach" for K. U. will come during the Thanksgiving holidays. Every student returning to his home town for the first time after his initiation into the University life becomes a potential factor of influence. The congregation is the entire population of the home town. It is composed of high achoo, friends, relatives, and acquaintances who are looking at K. U. through the homecoming student) He is the telescope through which they largely judge the spiritual size of K. U. His duty then is to make the proper adjustment of himself that he may not misrepresent the institution for which he stands. A part of his sermon will be in the form of speech. But the vital conclusion will be given in way of action. What the homecoming student does during his vacation and how he carries himself among his friends is traced by the observing to the influence of his University. If his actions are commendable, K. U. stock has gone up while if they are unsatisfactory is takes a tumble. The student then must watch himself closely from the time he steps off the train into the care of his home town until he leaves again. He must regard himself as a missionary in putting K. U. first and realize that his is the responsibility of the community as to their attitude towards K. U. TIE THE KNOT NOW The time is near at hand when the football machines of the Tigers and the Jayhawks meet on McCook Field to settle the gridiron championship in the Missouri Valley. Not in many years has Lawrence and the University had the privilege of watching a battle for the Valley title and for that reason alone, the game will attract unusual interest. But there are plenty if other reasons. For more than a score of years, Tiger and Jayhawk have waged an annual battle for football supremacy. Sometimes the Tigers have triumphed, but more often, the victory has been won by the native sons of Mount Oread. But there are many students now on the Hill who will remember the last visit of Mizuzo to McCook Field. It was only a week after the great 7-3 victory of the Jayhawkers over Nebraska, and Kansas reigned their ancient enemies from Columbia altogether too lightly. As a result, the Tigers awoken down the field to a 13-0 victory. This year the two eleven are evenly matched. If there is any edge on the ope, Missouri has it, but Kansas is determined to win. That last victory f Missouri must be blotted out and he Jas Hawk must have revenge. In order to be returned victorious next Thursday, the entire student body must get behind the team with a brand of pep that has not yet been displayed in Lawrence this year. Word comes from Columbia that great crowds of students are watching the practice of their eleven every afternoon and that the University Band is at Rollin Field every day to put pep into the gathering. The Tigers are coming to Lawrence with blood in their eyes and it is up to us! Graduates of the University of Kansas are driving back every day to help develop a winner. There will be thousands of alumni back for Homecoming Day, the biggest event of the year. Let's all get together and tie an other knot in that Tiger's tail! Mental Lapses A commercial traveler, on leaving a certain hotel, said to the proprietor: "Pardon me, but with what bed in your establishment?" "Why," said the landlord proudly, "with the best straw that can be found in the whole country." "That," returned the traveler, "very interesting. I know now whence the straw came that broke the camel's back" —Iuach史记 Stoxons—Well there's one bill that Congress will never be asked to pass. Bonds—What is it? Stoxons—An old age pension for women. They'll never admit their go—Washington Star. "If you're about half sick, I should think you'd be satisfied with about half a day off." - Depawu Daily. "I think I'll go home for a couple of days.

His roommate: I have to put up with him in order to use his dress suit. His financee: William and General Pershing won the war.

Carwef students who are college are subject to faculty inquiry. The University of Minnesota has planned an airplane trip for the girl who gets the most校友 subscription. The girl also got it after the spring, since it is too cold now. The University of Oregon is planing a memorial in honor of the university men who were in service in the recent war. Committees of both faculty and students have been appointed to discuss the advisability of such an undertaking and methods of raising the money. At a large mass meeting a short time ago the male students at the university of Utah went on record as being opposed to the use of tobacco on the campus and resulted in a petition from some men who felt that to take away the right of smoking on the campus was wrong. The matter was finally put to vote and the majority supported the use of nicotine on the campus. Massachusetts School of Technology is preparing for an eight million dollar endowment fund drive. University of Oklahoma has been asked to help in rebuilding Belgian College, destroyed by the war. Freshmen at the University of Tex as voted to wear the freshmen cap. Texas University Traditional Premier Ministrels are to be revived at the University of Texas this year. Varsity Ministrels were very popular some years ago and are now a place again, to the place of the varsity circus which will not be given.

The Kansan: Agnite the University of Kansas has lost out; again the Kansas Aggies have taken a step toward prestige that K. U. students can enjoy. The students of the Kansas State Agricultural College have volunteered to dig coal in the Kansas mines if necessary. A telegram to that effect was sent to the Kansas menace, *Meanwhile*, K. U. stands silently by. This is not the only time that the Aggries have brought themselves into the lightmil, and each time the task of the University to maintain her position in the lead is made harder. It took a very small amount of initiative and a few cents to send a telegram to the governor, but it will leave a lasting effect. Parents of prospective college students will read the Kansas statute and will say to themselves that a school that influences its students as the Agricultural College will appear to is the place to send their children. And they are not far from wrong. It is not probable that the Argies acted in that way merely for publicity purposes, though if that were the case one would expect to find a result. They were sincere. And that brings one up to the question as to whether the students of the University of Kansas would look upon such a proposition in like seriousness. If not, then the Agricultural College is the better place to make such a proposition upon the proposition seriously, they should make their intent evident to the outside public. It is the impression an institution makes upon the public that makes or unmakes, the institution. Let K. act and prove to the Argives Ken Kessler best institute in the state. The Agricultural College has sent a challenge to prove this. CLASSIFIED ADVERTISEMENTS Minimum charge, one insertion $2. Up to fifteen words, two insertions.
