Fisher's Shoes Are Good Shoes
Seneca Says of Hercules :
"HIS MIND IS LIKE HIS WALK." So every man expresses in his step the state of his mind in a certain degree.
Freedom and confidence do not find expression in his walk if the shoe cramps or has lost its shapeliness.
The shoe is considered one of the most important items of dress, as it plays an important part in supplying the finishing touches to one's personal appearance.
FISCHER'S shoes are designed and made with every thought for their wearers.
The excellence of the MATERIAL increases self-respect, the FIT conduces to ease, and the STYLE imparts confidence.
We are showing the newest styles adapted for all occasions.

MECHANICAL ENGINEERS
HOLD INITIAL MEETING
The first meeting of the year of the University of Kansas Branch of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers was held Thursday in Marvin Hall. The history of the student banches of the national organization was given by Dean P. F. Walker and Prof. A. H. Sluss outlined the work that will be covered by the society this year.
Considerable significance is attached to the fact that the University of Kansas, through the efforts of Dean Walker and his assistants in the department of mechanical engineering, was the leader in the formation of Student Branches of the national organization. The mechanical society was recognized by the A. S. M. E. in 1909 and since that time the national headquarters in New York has closely watched the activities of the branch organization in this school. The society meets weekly at which meeting the members read technical magazine reports and papers of their own composition. A big annual meeting is held each year and the students are at that time addressed by outsiders in the engineering profession and members of the University faculty.

"Little Miss Muffet sat on a tuffet,
Eating of curds and whey:
There came a big spider
And sat down besides her,
And frightened Miss Muffet away."
POLITY CLUB TO MEET SOON ADD TO MUSEUM COLLECTION
One girl is a sadder and wiser sophomore. Not long since, returning from mailing a letter to one she had left behind, absorbed in sad and thoughtful reminiscences, she absent-mindedly wandered into the rooming house next her own. She did not even discover her mistake until the strangeness of her surroundings awoke her from her reverie. And then—will then—she fled. It was a men's rooming house.
Glenn Alt, senior Engineer, spent the week-end with his parents at Denon, Kansas. Alt attended the engineering camp held at Robinson, Kansas, the early part of the summer. He then visited the exposition, making him too late to visit his parents before enrollment this fall.
Harry Gowans, A, M. '13 was in Lawrence Saturday visiting his parents. Gowans is principal of the Iola high school. The fact that Gowans is so fond of football coach as well is not decreasing his popularity with the boys.
Will Decide on Speakers for University Peace Convention iNext
Prof. E, H. S. Bailey, of the department of chemistry will leave tomorrow for Wichita, where he has been summoned on a state case in connection with the State Board of Health.
To decide on the speakers for the convention here next month members of the Polity Club will meet this week. This club was organized last spring by Dr. George Nasmyth of Boston when he spoke here .
Harold Branine, '16, and Kenneth Pringle, '16, were delegates to the general convention at Ithaca. N. Y., last spring. Delegates from thirty-five universities attended this gathering. Among the men who addressed the convention were Norman Angell, Major Putnam, of the National Security League, and Dr. George Nasmyst. The question of International Conciliation from all viewpoints was discussed.
The International Polity club was founded and is supported by the Carnegie Endowment fund. It was formed primarily to promote international democracy and was organized late in the spring with a membership of about sixty men.
New Machines in Fowler Shops
Two new machines have been added to the equipment of the Fowler Shops which are under the supervision of Supt. Frank E. Jones. One is a new style Oliver "jointer," belt driven, and is used for making joints in patterns and other pieces of work where wood is employed.
The other machine is an Oliver direct current motor lathe for use in wood working and turning. It operates under its own power and has a maximum speed of per minute. It is run on a 220 volt circuit and is 5 horse power.
Good Journalism Dept. at I. U. Walter Haviork, while visiting at the University of Illinois last week, met Professor Harrington formerly of the journalism department here. Professor Harrington was greatly pleased with the rapid strides journalism has taken at Illinois U. for though it is a very recent establishment the great enrollment in the department this year has already pointed to a great future.
Eighty men are trying out for the University Band, according to Director J. C. McCanles who is holding the last tryout tonight.
The band is slightly unbalanced due to the lack of material for the bass. With a few bass players and perhaps another clarinet player McCanles promises an exceptionally good band.
An early start is to be made in Jayhawker basketball this year. Coach Hamilton announced this morning that the first practice will be held in the Gym Wednesday night for both freshman and Varsity.
Only two "K" men are in school this year and these two were not regulars on last year's squad. The capacity of the team is open this year since Ray Folks, captain-elect, did not receive a nomination until the season starts after the Christmas vacation. Dutch Appel is the most likely candidate for the job

Three Biological Surveys Brought Back Much Material This
Summer
As a result of three biological survey expeditions sent out during the summer from the department of biology at the Museum, the Museo is considerably enlarged.
Prof. Herman Douthitt and Lewis Curry went to Seamore, Texas, where they were very successful in obtaining the specimens of the Permean age.
The department sent out another biological survey consisting of Vic Householder, William Heath, and Theodore Griesa, who traveled in the southeastern part of the state for eight weeks. There they obtained a bird from over six hundred bird skins to be used in the museum and for class work.
Mr. Martin of the museum is still out on a collecting tour in the western part of the state, where he is searching for vertebrae fossils.
STUDENTS BEGIN HARD
WORK EARLY THIS YEAR
The students are making greater use of the library this year. Nearly two hundred books are now checked out which sets a record for this time of year and incidentally shows that reference work is beginning early.
"In other years the first few weeks of school gave little trouble, but this year we are having as many calls for books and references now as we generalize the middle or latter part of the school term," said a librarian this morning.
The library is a busy place now at nearly any time of day and often self-seating capacity for the great number of students looking up material.
Samuel Johnson, the freshman who has been out of school during the past week with ivy poisoning, resumed his work on the Hill this morning.
Erle F. Cress, College, '15, of Perry, Okla., is back this fall working for his master's degree in history and political science.
