Now is the time of the year when the professors tell their classes how much more ground last year's class covered than this year's class.
The faculty in the College has done its share in recognizing the work of debaters. The one substantial thing that ought to be given yet is the privilege of wearing a distinctive emblem of some sort.
The organization of the Kansas Club at the University of Michigan is another demonstration of the Jayhawker spirit that never says die. Kansas has more praiseworthy spirit per square foot than any other spot on the globe. May it always be so.
--apparent than since the adoption of the reform athletic rules last year. Nearly every institution in the valley has played under rules of its own, or at best under rules laid down by individual compact with another institution. The conference would have been a good thing last year. It is a good thing now. From it we expect a closer and a harmonious league of schools of this section, and in consequence a higher general athletic standing for all of them. The rivalry which will follow the organization will place the southwest on a higher plane than it has yet held in the athletic world.
Only a little more than a week until the semi-annual day of reckoning, the ever recurring season of the epidemic of weak eyes. Ye conscientious student may now be seen chasing along at full speed to and from class; or bending over his table until unmentionable hours of the morning. The gas company is the only one that will grow sleek and fat out of the next two weeks.
The Kansan will be sent to any address from now until commencement for fifty cents. Don't fail to take advantage of this offer. If you have a friend who is a senior in a preparatory school, suppose you send him the Kansan for the balance of the year and get him interested in the University. This is a good chance to help along your school paper and do your alma mater a good turn.
There are many advantages to be expected as the result of the organization of the Missouri Valley Universities. There has been a need for such organization for several years, and this need was never more
The Kansan will be delivered to any address for the rest of the year for fifty cents. This price is for mailing subscriptions, as well as for the city delivery by Carriers. Subscribe for your friends at home.
