The Daily Kansan aims to picture the undergraduate university to go further than merely printing the news. This requires University holds; to play no favorites; to be clean; to be cheerful; to be gentle; to be courageous; to leave more serious problems to wiser heads; in all, to try to prepare students of the University.

WATCH THE CLOCK!
The greatest financial campaign is the history of the Y. W. C. A. is now in progress. It started at six o'clock Tuesday evening, and before the town clock struck eight nearly four hun dred dollars had been subscribed.
Wednesday the hands of the Y. W.
C. A. clock on Mount Oread had
nearly reached the $450 mark, and
now we shall watch it climb until the
$1,800 necessary for the year's budg-
get is raised.
We know the value of the Young Womens Christian Association, and the good work that, they have done and are doing for the University of Kansas—but we do not support it as it should be supported. It is the duty of every young woman in the University to affiliate herself with this Christian organization, and to support it.
Watch the Clock!
AS OTHERS BELIEVE
There are some students who believe the mill tax is unfair. They argue that with the price of wheat so high it is unjust to put an extra tax on the millers.
Yearlings versus Varsity is the line-up for tomorrow.
And it will be some scrap! The frosh will be after the Varsity's scalp, in revenge for all the hard knocks they have received in scrimages. And the Varsity will be out there to show the yearlings that "experience counts."
It is to be a real game—a full-time battle-royal to the finish—and to the winners will come the laurels. Here is a chance for the freshmen to show up the upperclassmen in rooting. There has always been a great argument that it is the freshmen who do all the rooting at the football games. Let's see! Let's seel—Freshman, it's up to you to root for your class team. They'll have to fight hard to beat the Varsity—sophomores, juniors, seniors and others, it's up to you to get behind the Varsity and cheer them on.
Let's all go out to McCook tomorrow afternoon and see the fight!
"A Short History of the United States" is the title of the 884 paged text book used in Professor Davis' class in American history. Professor Davis justifies the title of the text, however, on the theory that a short man is often fat.
THEY'RE WITH US!
The state schools, and the candidates for the governorship of Kansas are in favor of the mill tax!
The assurance that the heads of four out of five of the heads of the state educational institutions—and probably the fifth—are advocating the measure may surely be taken as an indication that the schools, and that the students in those schools, will fight for the mill tax.
The Chancellor, and the students of
the University have long been fighting for the adoption of this tax, which will assure a permanent income to all the state educational institutions. It is with the greatest of pleasure that we welcome the students and heads of the other schools as they enter the light for this good cause.
"in union there is strength" is a time-worn adage. Nevertheless it will apply in this case. The students in all of our state schools come from a wide range of territory, and with everyone of them talking and writing, and writing and talking: "Mill Tax! Mill Tax! Mill Tax!" the real purpose of the measure will become known to all the people and the legislature of the state of Kansas .
Students and educators of Kansas, let us do our best to give a truthful impression of the Mill Tax to all the people of the state; let us show what it will do for our schools—and let us fight for it until we get it!
WELCOMING OUR SOLDIERS
The men of Company M have returned to Fort Riley from the Mexican border. They are expected to be back on the Hill next Monday.
We will be glad to see them back and the militiamen will enjoy being among old-time friends again. We should show our appreciation of the patriotism of these men who went to the border.
Why not have at the next convoiation a "Soldiers Homecoming Day" program? Convocation day is the only time that all of the students can conveniently meet together.
We can give the soldiers the "Crimson and the Blue" and a few "Rock Chalks." Perhaps, two or three of the militiamen will consent to tell us of their experiences in the service of the United States army.
THE NEWS IN RHYME

THE LETTER HOME
"Dear Dad: Was glad to hear from you."
Have been too busy to write,
I read my history through and
And my algebra's a fright.
I study most every night till one,
The work here drives me mad,
I don't have much time for fun,
But my grades are not half bad.
The mums are here in force. All kinds and all prices.
Hope you and mother are feeling fine.
Was by cannibals cooked and about to be ate;
Young Silas McCaule of Kansas state,
And brother still as thirty,
But next time you send that letter
But the deed wasn't did, for to tell the whole truth.
Please don't forget that fifty." William.
