INSTALLS COUNCIL TONIGHT
Newly Elected Members of Men's Gov-
erning Body Begin Work
At 7:30 o'clock tonight, the right honorable the Student Council will retire in favor of its successors elected last Thursday.
The frail infant Student Government will be placed under the care of a new practitioner, and the whole school will be forced to restrain the efforts made to restore it to health. The new council will be freed from the burden of disciplinary powers which were returned to the University by the referendum vote at Thursday's election.
The new officers to be installed tonight are as follows: president, Leland Thompson; vice-president, Ames Adams; treasurer, Adams. Members from the College: W. W. Woolsey, Shroomer, Hylas Smith, C. D. Hunter and Neal Ireland. Members from School of Law: Gillian McGee. Members from Engineering School: Ted Crum, C. A. Poland, Ed. Tanner, and Chas, Hagenbach. School of Medicine: Homer Hincock. School of Food. Graduate School: Beni Baltzer.
There are two vacancies in the Council from the College. Kenneth H. Lott and Kenneth W. Pringle are candidates for election to the places.
TO HAVE SUPPLEMENT PRINTED IN COLORS Daily Kansan to Issue Magazine Feature and Weekly Next Year
A weekly issue of the Daily Kansas and a magazine supplement, illustrated and printed in colors, are available for purchase. The journalism expected next year. The basement of the Medic Building is not recommended as a refuge for the Polish residents.
To meet the expense of these new features and the general increase in the cost of producing a newspaper, it is announced that the subscription price of the paper next year will be $3.00. But during the next three weeks the newspaper will pay a year's subscription in advance at the old rate of $2.50.
In order to heap up the measure of in value to the running over point, those who subscribe now for next year and have completed their session Mer Session Kansan free of charge.
ANNUAL OFFICE GOES TO THE WORMS Jayhawker Stronghold Deserted
No longer will dignified seniors descend into the basement of Green Hall to turn in pictures and money for the Annual; never again this year will some student with a grouch slip down there between classes to turn in pictures. The 1913 Jayhawker is finished, and the old Jayhawker office—such a prominent part of Green Hall during the past year—stands deserted. There is dust on the manager's desk and dust on the editor's chair. The typewriter agency downtown has annexed the office to cover the deal of the Annual copy was written, and the typewriter stand is empty. There are a few scattered papers on the floor; some tattered proof sheets tacked on the wall—and colebooks in every corner. The editor and the manager gave up the ship last Fri night to the office of the behind them and left the office to the worms and the insinator force.
Who will sell Jayhawkers now? The manager says he should worry. The editor says his job was to write a book, but the entire edition has about been exhausted. So why should the managers fret about the matter? Their work is done: they're happy. Allie Carroll and Rowland's Book Store now contains four remaining Jayhawkers. They'll part with a single copy for $275.
Friday is the last day orders will be taken for senior caps and gowns. Only one-fourth of the seniors have signed up according to the records of Jerry Simpson who has taken Roy Springer's place as chairman of the caps and gowns committee. No engineering students are graduate students have given their orders. Simpson will take orders at the Engineering Building one day this week and will be at the usual place at the old check stand in the afternoon.
At Morning Prayers
Take Can and Gown Orders
Morning prayers: leader, Con Hoffmann; general subject, "Life." Wednesday, Restraint in Life. Friday, Restraint in Life. Friday, "Eternal Life."
ALL K. U. SOON TO
KNOW QUEEN O' MAY
At 4:30 Friday Most Bewitch ing Senior to be Given Honors
FETE IS BIGGER THAN EVER
But Few University Women Will Now
Take Part in this Year's
Frolic
After months of practice and preparation, the plans and work of the May Fete are almost complete. Only a few more rehearsals and preparations have nature has ever given will be ready. At 4:30 on the green of the golf links, Friday afternoon, will be enacted the culmination of an undertaking that has taken all the spare time and thought to better part of the dayhawker women.
Hearty every woman in every class of the University will have a part in the Fete, from the freshmen who will frolic as shepherdesesses and Little Boy Blues, to the stately seniors, who are to give a senior ceremony. Sophomores as daisies, will frolic over the field. Milk-mids will make the audience feel that the children are the best and buttercups will, to say the least, be lovely as May. Dryads and wood nymphs will dance before witching forest fires.
Rustic lovers will wander about and village maids will desert themselves upon the green. Crude peasant folk, as well as the fairy folk, will take part in the crafts and seaside activities they are looking upon a corner of a corner Old England.
Sighing Lovers, Too
Then there will be the Queen. Who she is no one knows, but at the Fete, the most bewitched of the senior class is to be crowned. From 4:30 till late in the evening there will be a dark cock, such as a sight as has never been seen before. When daylight has gone there will be fire dances, and smoke dances to end the Fete. Besides the chorus dances there are to be many solo dances, among them the dance by Helen Clark and J. B. McNaught, and a dance by Gladys Harries.
Movies of the Fete
Realizing that the affair will be picturesque and beautiful the Mutual Moving Picture Film Co., is planning to take pictures of the Fete. The
The senior Torch society is to put on a special symbolic ceremony and during the Fete the juniors will receive brands.
STUDENTS TAKE ONE
HOUR FOR TALKFEST
pictures probably will be shown here at a later date.
In the midst of all the enjoyment that the Fete will afford, ice cream, Hershey bars, soda pop and perhaps red lemonade will be available. Each sorority expects to have a booth where filled drinks will flow.
A dance to pay off the deficit left from the Junior Prom will be given in Robinson Gymnasium at 8 o'clock to morrow night. The Junior Man prom manager, the President Creighton, report a fifty dollar debt from the junior entertainment.
MOVIE MAN APPEARS ON THE HILL.
The mid week date rule will be off for the party and work on the floor in preparation for the dance is already under way.

Discussed Everything From Chancellor to Equipment of University Schools
(SOME PROFS GET PRAISE)
Carpenter, Gaitskill, Thompson, Som
arpenter, Gatskii, Thompson, Son
ers, Dykes, Willet, Graskby and
Ewald Were Speakers
With good words for some and criticisms for others the Student Day speakers held sway for two hours in he Fraser chapel at 11:30 this morn-
Clark Carpenter of the School on Engineering was the first speaker and when he spoke of whether the Engineer did not say, 'Do not think for a minute that there will not be any agrification for an Engineer's' Day next year; and it will probably not be on Saturday,' Clark voiced the sentiments of the School.
Cheerleader Jo Gaitskill made his initial appearance before K. U. students in his official capacity after a visit to the Engineering spoke "just to let a little time elapse between the Engineers and the Laws," said Leland Thompson, recently elected president of the Students' Union. He made an appearance, in introducing Gaitskill.
Nor were the Laws outdone by the Engineers, in the matter of cheering them on.
ers, representative of the Schoo. 'across the way' was introduced, they demonstrated with yells for Uncle Jimmy and Tubby.
Speakers Were Dramatic
"Not a man in the School of Law has a word to say against our faculty," said Somers. "The Chancellor and I have been made of him and the principal difficulty as we see it is in the red tape which surrounds him and to obviate that difficulty, let us do all | one or two to take the University out of politics."
The College was represented by Pat Crowell and he evidently struck a familiar strain when he said that K. U. was overburdened with inefficient instructors on account of the poor pay.
John Dykes spoke for the School of Medicine and emphasized the importance of a cheerleader who could inspire the students as a necessity for winning athletic teams. Ray Willett of the School of Pharmacy complained of the long hours in that school which keep many men out of student activities. Charles Grabsky spoke of the needs of an adequate laboratory for the study of Education, telling the present Oread Training School was not large enough or well equipped for such an important department.
Mark Ewald of the Graduate School had no serious complaint to make of the faculty in general and had much better feeling than the faculty of the Graduate School.
Sachem, honorary senior society, announce the following pledges: Walter W. Wood, Dar J. James, John H. McGraw, Alex Creighton, E. M. Johnson, Fred B. Campbell, Willard King, Hugo T. Wedell, Harold B. Crowell, John A. Reber, Guy M. LaMer, Charles W. Hardie, Fred L. Chinery, Clifford B. Sykes.

GIVE OUTDOOR MUSIC FRIDAY
Initial Spring Concert Staged Under Campus Sky by Band
The first band concert this spring will be given on the campus Friday evening at 7 o'clock. This of course if the weather permits; no one need stay away on account of dates, because the concert will not last more than an hour, and also, it's a good place to take a date.
"Whether there will be band concerts on the campus each Friday evening will depend altogether on the number of people who come out to hear our first concert," says J. C. McCanles, leader of the band. "We want to give the concerts if the crowds justify our efforts."
KANSAS JOURNALISM DISTINCT IN ITSELF
Filled With "Joy of Life Former New York Editor Tells Students
"The journalism of Kansas, Missouri and Oklahoma has a distinctive character. It is filled with 'joy of life' which belongs to this part of the country," said Congressman B. Atwater. He added that address given in the Medical Building to students in the department of journalism. Congressman Firestone hails from Lisbon, Ohio, but has been in newspaper work in New York City, where he taught English at Mali and the World. He has had years of editorial experience.
The distinction between reporting and editorial writing is like that between life and religion. The best editor feels his work to be almost holy. 'Prove all things; hold fast to that which is good; truth is a curious matter.' Someone must be waiting for and waiting for. You don't have to discuss a subject the day when it appears, nor try to give both sides until you can make up your mind.
Inform, Persuade, Fight
"Editoriales are for three purposes:
to inform, to persuade and to fight.
The newspaper must be ready and
eager to champion good causes. And
it is never wise to let a man plot your
curves in advance. He should never
know what to expect except that it
will be good.
"The editorial page should be the best looking in the paper; it should show that it is considered the most important one.
"The World editorial is an ordinary editorial with all the unnecessary words and most of the necessary ones omitted. An editorial should be understood by a boy of twelve, but should command the intellectual respect of a Supreme Court justice," the sneaker concluded.
ACCOUNT BOOKS ARE WANTED
Nine Organizations Fail to Turn in Statements to be Audited
"I don't see how we can audit books when we can not get the treasurers of the organizations to hand them in to me," said Registrar George O. Foster this morning. "A dozen books have been audited, and two are in the office waiting for the rest to be handed over." We will look over the books until all the books are in the registrar's office."
The following have failed to hand in their books;
Freshman class, junior class, the Sachems, Spinik, X. U. Dramatic the Sachems all Hill Architectural club, Architecture Engineering Society, and Hash House League.
FRATS WILL PLAY FOR CUP
Sigma Chis, Sig Alphs and Phi Deltos to Contend for Carroll Trophy
The Inter-fraternity baseball league has simmered down to the Sigma Chis Sig Alphs and Phi Delts. These three teams will play for the Carroll's cup each having won the championship in its respective division.
Probably the most interesting game that has been played so far this year in the league was played yesterday afternoon by the Sigma Nus fraternities stated that "it really was too close to be interesting" and at no time did the rooters on either side rest assured of victory. Loveless and Steltzer play good ball for the Sigma Nus but the hitting powers of the Sigma Nus have never battery. Woody and Lindany composed the S. A. E, battery.
Women Rehearse
Junior women will practice for the May Fete on the field Tuesday night at 6 p.m.
All the women in the May Fete will rehearse Wednesday at 4:30 o'clock on the field and at 7 o'clock in the Gym.

Forty-six Stop School By Reason of Slender and Empty Purses
"WE NOW NEED A LOAN FUND"
Undergraduates
Committee Makes Strong Appeal for $50,000 to be Used by Worthy
"The need of a student loan fund has been emphasized this year through the loss of forty-six students, the failure of the institution for financial reasons."
Four Plans Proposed
This is the appeal for assistance that the members of the loan fund committee is making. The present inadequate loan fund, established in 1854 has made a total number of $7 million over the past no time has there been more than $1,000 to work on, yet have there been over a hundred men and women helped into a happy and successful life by it. With a fund of $50,000 which the committee in charge of the campaign hopes to raise, every young man and woman will be aroused of attending the University of Kansas, will be enabled to do so.
"We have four plans for raising money," said Registrar George O. Foster this morning, "and intend to meet these needs and any more that may promise well.
"The first of these is the 'outright gift' plan and those who sign the ships which are being circulated over the ocean will be heading. However," said Mr. Foster, "we are not limiting this to students or any other class. Any one who feels inclined to give anything to the future will have the opportunity of so doing."
"The second plan suggested is that of 'gifts on call' whereby the donor does not turn his gift over to the fund until there is a demand for it.
"The third plan is a sort of annuity proposition and would apply to those who donated large sums if they so desired it. The committee would pay 4 percent of the total death of the donor. Then the gift would go into the fund directly.
"The fourth plan is that suggested by Prof. E. F. Engel in the January Graduate Magazine. He suggests a direct endowment plan by alumni of the university, but who is thinking of adding to the fund by this plan at the present time."
The campaign for the fund will be discussed at the faculty luncheon at CSU.
THINKS STUDENT IS GENTLEMAN OF ROAD Hobe Confides With Freshman
The other afternoon while J. R. Grinstead, freshman College, was out in the country on a stroll, enjoying the beauties of nature, he met a tramp of the species hobo. "Weary Willie" sauntered up to him. Grinstead stopped. His knees began to knock together, and he groaned. "Say! Been able to get anything to chaw on lately?" whispered the stranger.
"I hain't had nothin' much in the
tale or three er four days. These here
farmers air getin' mighty stingy.
What luck'cha been havin'"?
"Why, er-er-er, 1-I just-a-a-a-get my dinner at Eu-Eu-Dura, but I paid for it," tremblingly stuttered our friend.
"Oh!" he gasped under his breath.
"Stung again." And he went on down the road, plowing his feet through the dust.
"I don't know why he took me for one of his own triet," said J. R. later.
"I had on good clothes, and took a shave that morning too."
