LET'S GO
THURSDAY, NOV. 11, 1915
Power acquired by guilt was never used for a good purpose.-Tacitus.
LET'S GO
Let's make it a go. The stude is of the University have started it, and it's up to them to carry it through.
University Sunday is a University affair. If it is a success, it will be a big boost to K. U. If a failure—well, it won't be a failure.
By outsiders, the success or failure of the Day will be taken as a barometer of the tastes and inclinations of the student body. The public at large watches such moves with interest, and draws rather decided conclusions from them.
Here's a chance to answer it.
The charge of irreligiousness has sometimes been thrown at K. U.
PEP—WIN OR LOSE
It doesn't make any difference which church—let it be the church of your choice—but BE THERE next Sunday, UNIVERSITY SUNDAY.
It should not make one iota of difference—so far as pep and spirit go—whether we win or lose next Saturday.
The kind of school spirit that is worth while—and the only kind that is worth while—is the kind that backs a team with equal enthusiasm when the boys are tussling on the fifty yard line, when they are charging on their opponents' five yard line, or when they are fighting the scrap of their lives on their own two yard line; that backs the team through victory or defeat, through thick and thin.
This is the kind of college spirit that makes a school famous. It is the kind that sends the Varsity down the field with a vim. It is the kind of pop that is irresistible.
Now we don't expect to lose. But in any hard fought game there are times when fate is balancing on a needle, when the advantage may even be with the other side, when the skies possibly look dark. It is at just such times that K.U. pep must make itself felt. Win or lose, the team must have the whole-hearted support of every red-blooded man and woman in the University.
SHALL WE KILL DOGS-
Somebody has said that sentiment is stronger than logic, money or common sense, and we believe that man was right despite the efficiency mania which has struck the country during the last few years. One of these same efficiency experts has proved, by a recent statement supported by statistics, that sentiment still rules the world.
The man who has proved the statement, as we see it, is C. S. Mohler, secretary of agriculture of the state of Kansas. Mr. Mohler has discovered that Kansas has more dogs than sheep and in good faith has told the people of the state that they should raise more sheep and fewer dogs, for sheep are always worth money and-
well, dogs aren't always worth what it takes to feed them. We'll admit that.
However, had the secretary gone further into his statistical inquiries he would have found that most of the dogs in Kansas belongs to the small boys of the state, and to a boy a good dog is a priceless possession while a sheep—well, what red blooded youngster would want Mary's little lamb for a playmate?
—AND RAISE SHEEP!
AND RAIN!
Do you remember those Saturday afternoons in the fall when you were accustomed to run wild over the countryside with your dog and hunt rabbits? Do you remember how you got that same dog when he was a puppy and nursed him to his full strength by stealing milk from the family ice box so that he would grow the faster? How you bound up his wounds after he had been fighting, and he looked into your eyes more thanks than words could express? How he was your constant companion, your confident, your one and only pal who sympathized with you when all the world plotted for your downfall?
That dog was a real friend, and it sort of makes your throat tight to think about him even yet. On his account you still have a friendly feeling toward all dogs.
Yet C. S. Mohler, secretary of agriculture has suggested that we'd better kill off our dogs and raise sheep. Raise sheep! Think of it—sheep!
A TRUE STORY
This is just a true story. If it has a moral you'll have to find it.
There is a fraternity man in the University who has never been a church goer until this year. He is a senior and president of his society. During the three years that he has been at the University he seldom attended any of the Lawrence churches, but early this year he decided that no freshman in his society should fail to go to church for the same reason that he did, just because he never started. So from the first Sunday after pledge week he has taken every pledge in the fraternity to church, and whether they wanted to go or not he has lined them up and taken them along. The first three weeks he admits that he didn't especially enjoy going himself and he had hard work making the men under him go. However for the last three weeks, he says, the pledges have been going as a matter of course and say that they would much rather go than loaf about the house. And the president is still going himself for the same reason.
Flotsam and Jetsam
The Indiana Student makes mention of the "Thousand and One punctes" when she were sent in by Coach Wiley and "in" Coach last week. Ohio and Indiana last week.
Boy, page the man who insists that conversation is a trait of the Indiana Student.
Among the old grads who return this week, there will no doubt be many who, years ago, pledged Pi Beta Kappa. That this society may make itself known to the rest of us and vie with the other fraternities on the fatal day which is calling—alias too, for Nebraska—the P. B. K.s should have a distinctive yell. In lieu of any other we humbly propose the following to be used at the game when circumstances justify;
He was quietly dreaming in class this morning when the professor broke in upon his reveries by asking him a question upon a topic of current interest. His reply showed the trend of thought this week.
"No," said this student, "I don't blame Lord Kitchener especially, but it's if the ball goes down. Fear it the ball more, the touchdown would occur offen't."
The question since the article in a local paper now becomes: did T. Davenport S, really intend to criticize the team adversely or not?
Exquisite! Exquisite! Exquisite!*
*This part of the yell may be effected by bringing the palms in contact sharply, thus producing a sound which is commonly used to indicate aprobation.
Perhaps Lord Kitchener went to the East in order to be near Constantinople when Thanksgiving comes.
MILTON ON CHURCH-GOING
But let my due feet never fail.
To walk the studious Cloister's pale,
And love the high embowed Roof,
With antique Pillars mass' proof,
And store stairs that light a night
and dim religious light.
There let the pealing Organ blow,
To the full voiced choir below.
InService high, and Anthems clear,
As may, with sweetness, through
Dissolve me into ecstasies,
And bring all Heaven before mine
A COLONIAL SUNDAY
—Il Penseroso.
COLONIAL
With a welcoming house all was simple enough; raffered walls, puncheon and sanded or earthen floors, rows of benches, a few pews, all of unpainted wood, and a painting which was usually the thick board, by sounding desk, which was fastened to the roof by a slender metal rod. When pews were built they were square, with high partition walls, but uncompleted seats round three row, uncompleted seats round three row, with narrow shelf-like seats were usually hung on hinges, and could be turned up against the walls during the psalm-tunes and prayers, so that the members of the congregation would up against the pew walls for support.
Four Hour Prayers
Four Hour Prayers
"The services were not shortened when we uncomfortable. By the side of the pulpit it a brace-bound hour glass which was turned by the tithing man or clerk, but did not hasten the closing if the sermon. Sermons for three hours long were two小时 and prayers on one to three hours When the first church in Woburn was dedicated, the minister preached a sermon nearly five hours long. A Dutch traveller recorded a prayer four hours long on a Fast Day. Many prayers for hour长 long. The priest were watched close by the tithing man, and none could leave, even if tired or restless, unless with a good excuse.
"The singing of psalms was long and tedious. They were lined by the deacons, in some cases the deacon
"The singing of psalms was long and tedious. They were lined by the deacons, in some cases the deacon reading a line, and the congregation sing it. Some psalms when lined and sung occupied a half hour, during which the congregation stood." —Home Life in Colonial Days.
AS IT WAS
His voice was soft, but clear and penetrating, as he read the eternal story of the angels and the shepers and the Babe. The wonder, the timid joy, the tenderness, the mystery of it all, were borne in upon us with overpowering effect. He closed the book, and in the same low, clear voice went on to tell us about home years ago, he used to stand on Christmas he listened in thrilling delight. His mother telling him the way, and how she used to make him see the shepers and hear the sheep bleeting near by, and how the sudden burst of glory used to make his heart jump.
Erna Zuternan spent Saturday and Sunday at the Theta house, returning to her work at Washburn Sunday evening.
angels, because a boy told me they were ghosts; but my mother told me better, and I didn't 'four them any more. And the Baby's nose in Baby's ear!' There was a quick, dry soak, it was from Nelson, I used to peek through under to see the little one in the straw, and wonder what things swaddling clothes were. He paused and I could hear the men in the crowd. 'Baby, he went on in the lower sweater tone, 'their was no one to tell me the story, and I grew to forget it and went away to college, and learned to think that it was only a child's tale and was not for men. Then bad days came to me and I needed to lose my self, of life, of hope, of goodness, till one far Christmas, in the slums of a far away city, when I had given up all and the devil's arms were about me, I heard the story again. And as I listened with a bitter nausea, I sat all behind me—I suddenly found myself peeking under the shepherd's arms with a child wonder at the Baby in the straw. It then came over me like a great wave that His name was Jesus, because it was He that should have saved him. The wave kept beating upon my ears, and before I knew I had called out, 'Oh, can He save me?' It was in a little mission meeting on the side street, and they seemed to be used to that sort of thing there, the side eye to me and 'Why, you just bet He can!' His surprise that I should doubt, his bright face and confident tone gave me hope that it might be so. I he's to that hope with all my soul,—stretching up his arms, and 'He had little jake in his voice.' He has 'little jake
"He had stopped quite short, and I felt a good deal like making a fool of myself, for in those days I had not made up my mind about those things," the minister went on. "“I didn’t mean to tell you this; men, it all tame over me with a rush; but it is all true, every word of it, and not a word will I take back’”" Ralph Connor.
