UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN FOG VERSUS RAIN PROVED POPULAR Various Factions On the Hill Greeted Precipitation With Smiles EVEN SUIT GRIDIRONISTS Game Captain Lindsey Calls Attention to Last Missouri "Fickleness, thy name is Kansas," complained a student this morning as he groped his way through the fog when slurping in the water or his way, to chase. FARMERS LIKE IT But that rain this morning was just what the country needed. The farmers were rejoicing, although the rain may not have descended quite as hard in the rural districts as it did here on Mt. Oread.

"We have established a wonderful reputation as mud-hens," he said. "Just look at this list. We are in this kind of weather. The rain will help. Watch us." The much censured men at the water plant were likewise wearing broad smile. "We will not have to furnish as much river water today," they said. "This rain will make pond thereby increase lumps; and ponds will never know the difference because the water will be just as muddy."
