WHAT THE SHOPS OFFER
Students Find Special Attraction in the Lawrence Stores
The University Daily - Kanan proposes to publish the news of that of the campus. Space in this column is not for sale at any event. It is reserved for students and no attention is paid to whether shops are open or closed. We find special bargains at Lawrence stores are intended to send in such items. Editor.
A miniature elephant drawing a small wagon, heavily loaded with cough preparations, affords the Round Corner Drug store with an odd but attractive window display.
Electric radiators at $5.00 each are for sale by the Railway and Electric Light Company. They do not consume an excessive amount of current and can be attached to any electric light fixture. The firm marketing them says four of these small radiators will heat a large room. The fixture is designed, however, for additional heat in rooms that are hard to heat or for heating small rooms. It is small and light in weight.
One of the finest assortments of skins and K blankets is on display at Alie Carroll's News Stand. The skins are beauties and the Greek lettering and seals on them add much to their attractiveness.
Many are indifferent to the numerous displays of hats, gloves, sweaters, and ties, but few are apathetic about football. The skillful display in the window of Johnson & Carl, apparently relies on this fact. Surrounded by a halo of gloves, scarfs, ties and pajamas is a full page from a newspaper picture supplement containing the pictures of all the football captains of the east and middle west, and also in the top of the display of goods a portrait of "Tony" James with a big K just showing on the sweater thrown over his shoulder. As the eye wanders from the newspaper sheet to the beaming face of Tony brief notice is taken of the goods displayed around and between these two attractions.
What most of us associate with pomegranate is, perhaps, Hawthorne's version of the old legend of how Proserpina was trapped into
spending six months of every year in the realm of Pluto as queen of the underworld. If anyone wishes to see a specimen of this fabled fruit, now is his chance; for some are on display in the window of W. A. Guenter's grocery.
Contrary to the widespread prediction that the war would stop all importation of foreign products, Lawrence merchants are getting their orders filled without trouble. They are proving that the fear was groundless that women would be forced to do without imported kid gloves; for the factories in France are still running.
That this is the time of year when people begin quoting James Whitcomb Riley's "When the Frost is on the Pumpkin," is evident from the window display of the Court House Grocery. It has a foxy arrangement of corn fodder, pumpkins, and leaves with a jack-o-lantern peeking out from under the corn. About the only thing missing from the scene is the rail fence and the rooster tip-toe-up upon it.
A fine display of periodicals and reading matter may be seen at Grigg's. Some good football stories are in several magazines for this month, and the colored covers make dandy pictures and ornaments for that room or den.
Any one who is "feelin' sort of blue" should drop into the Innes store, for the variety of colors to be seen in its display 'of the season's new plaids should be enough to brighten up the spirits of the worst Grouch on the Hill.
George A. Fitch, Y. M. C. A. Secretary at Shang Hai China, addressed the Y. M. C. A. at their weekly meeting Tuesday afternoon. He told of the changes which China is undergoing, how the people are laying their gods and idols and are looking for something new.
"It is a critical time," said Mr. Fitch; "for whatever comes first they will accept. They are eager to study Christianity, but there are not enough teachers. Not only do Chinese taking up Western religion, they also follow us in commercial ways. They are even taking up our athletics."

Four K. U. Professors Will Attend Kansas Academy of Science Investigation
Four professors in the University of Kansas are taking active interest in the Kansas Academy of Science, which will hold a special meeting on November 13, in Topeka. Professors L. E. Sayre, E. H. S. Bailey, and F. B. Dains are on the executive committee, and Prof. L. D. Havenhill holds the office of treasurer.
The Kansas Academy of Science was organized forty-seven years ago, and during that time has held forty-seven annual meetings, and has compiled and published twenty-seven volumes of transactions which contain many papers of great scientific value. By exchange of these transactions it has built up a library of 7000 volumes. It also owns a collection of Kansas minerals valued at $7,000.
This special meeting has been called in order that the members may see the condition in which the Library of Academy is equipped at the Academy has been left.
In a recent announcement J. T. Lovewell, secretary of the Academy, urges on members of the Academy that there should be no jealousy among who would promote science; for in this age of specialization it is important that you all college university to monopolize the whole field of science. He also said that state aid is needed in publication of umals of the society.
The K. U. Debating Society meeting will not be he'd this evening on account of the recital. The debate which was to be staged will be postponed to next Thursday night.
The Preliminary Programs for the Kansas State Teachers Convention, which is to be held in Topeka, on Nov. 11, 12 and 13, may now be obtained from the Chancellor's office in Fraser Hall, upon application.

JOURNALISM TEACHERS
TO MEET AT EASTER
The convention of Teachers of Journalism which is scheduled to meet at the University of Kansas sometime during the year will be held in the spring. The members of the Association made this choice of time in a straw vote taken this week by Prof. Merle Thorpe, president of the organization. Most of the members expressed the opinion that the Thanksgiving vacation did not give them enough time to make the trip and they did not care to be away from home at Christmas time. The Easter recess was voted to be the best time.
A freshman took his watch to a downtown jeweler to have it repaired. "You have some very good engraving here," said the jeweler, opening the watch.
"It ought to be good," answered the freshman, "Montgomery and Ward did it."

The steam monster in question, which will be installed in a new air-compressing station recently built by Wichita Pipe Line Company, is the una-flow type. This type is in common use around the country in factory. It has never before, however, been used in the United States in the gas transmission field.
Rathert and Nigg have begun work on a construction and calibrating apparatus which will be used to guage the efficiency of the giant engine. Behn Walks says that the men in the workshop will and will also be present when the test is made.
