NEWSPAPER WEEK ON

the courtesy of the Topeka Capital The public as well as the students is invited to attend any or all of the lectures.
Mr. Blanchard made the following statement this morning.
"I believe these annual conferences of Kansas Newspaper men mean more to the journalists of the state than they have any idea of. It is a clearing house of ideas and a center of information. The list of speakers secured for this year is exceptionally strong."
At a dinner talk made at Manhattan two years ago at a similar convention, Mr. Blanchard said that the inauguration of the Newspaper Conference meant the dawn of a new era in Kansas journalism. This morning he said that his expectations appalled. He cited the improvement especially in the smaller papers and the organization of the Central Newspaper Bureau of Kansas as direct outgrowths of the Conventions.

Engineers Have An "Uncle Harry" Green Who Grew Up With University
Send the Daily Kansan home to the folks.
Years ago when the Engineers of the University were accustomed to stopping the cabs in which the Laws rode to and from their annual party, Mr. Jimmy Green stopped in which Uncle Jimmy Green was riding with Mrs. Green. As soon as Uncle Jimmy spoke, he was given an ovation by the boys of Marvin Hall, although Marvin Hall was not built for him. Uncle Jimmy stopped the Engineers have a Green of their own, almost as long in the service of the University as Uncle Jimmy. Uncle Harry Green, godfather to the students of Eagle Harp, now makes his bow to the public—needs no introduction to the Engineers.
SAW EXCITING TIMES
Uncle Harry Green has been in the shops of the University for over twenty years and recalls many stories of stair and sober professors. He has seen all of the buildings except Fraser, Snow, Blake, Spooner, and the Medical building go up. He has served under two chancellors—Dr. F.H.Snow and Chancellor Strong, and has seen a superintendent—Whitehill and Shea. He recalls the time when Registrar George O. Foster was a member of an ever-victorious K. U. football team and that Prof. Wilson Sterling, now of the department of Greek, was a coach. He saw the hard race and put up when he freshman tried to make him take off his hat and bow to the freshman pole, an institution that all of the upper-classmen had to worship in those days of freshman bravery. He saw also the race that all of the freshman freshmen, but he beat them to a house in which he took refuge, going home to supper very late in the evening. And yet Uncle Harry stood on his head in the middle of the shop floor only a day or two ago. He turned away, and a few minutes later was sixty-five years old and still boasts that he covers much space with a broom in a day as any janitor on the Hill—although to avoid offending the Engineers we must not refer to him as a janitor very often.
Monday was Uncle Harry's seventy-second birthday, and his wife's sixty-second and it was celebrated at the Green house with due respect for the late Sir James A. Cook, who died in London, England on April 17, 1844 and shortly thereafter went with his
CAME HERE AFTER WAR
parents to London, Canada. At the outbreak of the Civil War, when Mr. Green was seventeen years old, he enlisted in the American army and served not only throughout the war, but six months ahead in the campaign of Custer against the Indians. This it was that Mr. Green first came to North Carolina, just being finished, in that year, having received, in the course of his military service, three honorable discharges and his citizenship papers he came to Lawrence and entered the employ of the University and is still here. He is not yet, however, the old man, in point of years served, as Dan Johnson, four years longer than Mr. Green. He is the oldest as regards age, however.
As a signal honor to Mr. Green's business ability, he has been elected without opposition to the treasurership of the Woodman lodge for eighth year nineteenth term. Mr. Green is an old man now but the Engineers hope that he will be here for many years for he is a shop institution and when he there will be something missing in the shops that cannot be replaced.
LOCAL MICHIGAN ALUMNI
TO ORGANIZE WEDNESDAY
A meeting of the Kansas branch of the Michigan alumni will be held in the chapel of Fraser Hall Wednesday evening at 7:15. The meeting will be attended by the twenty-five local graduates of the school and a number of others from over the state. The meeting will be an annual affair at which officers for the company will present a business organization perfected.
The meeting will be thrown open at eight o'clock to the public and three films of student life will be held in seven universities of Kansas films that have now been shown here. These will be run under the direction of Prof. F. C. Dockeray, who will relate incidents of interest to the alumni and to the members of the University of Kansas including the various traditions of the school.
Will your good intentions satisfy your creditors when they present their reins to your folks, if I have no reason to Northwestern to present them?
