UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN
FINAL TRYOUT TOMORROW
Track Men to Compete for Places in Team to Be Entered in Meet
A final tryout to determine the men who will represent the University of Kansas at the Drake Relay Carnival on Saturday, December 10, will be told tomorrow afternoon.
Coach Hamilton has entered the Crismon and Blue sunside in four reylays, the mile, half-mile, two-male and four-mile events and at least three of them will be run. Finally, faculty is in selecting men able to repeat in two or three races. This is a necessity because of the fact that only eight men will be taken and they will be allowed two miles, two-miles and mile relays. Whether the mile relay will be run is doubtful as it would probably require an extra squad of four men for this race alone as few two-twenty men would be able to run the longer distance.
JAMES VISITED THACKERAY
A Spring Favorite: Marvin Grove
As a Youngster, Henry's Jacket In terrested English Novelist
From the N. Y. Times
Henry James in A Small Boy and
Emily in *A Little Prince*, his memory of Mr. Thackeray became bound up with the memory of a daguerreotype.
"I repaired with my father on an August day to the great Broadway establishment of Mr. Brady," he says, "supreme in that then beautiful art, and it is my impression—the only point vague with me—that though we had read her poetry for the purpose, we were to keep the affair secret, till the charming consequence should break, at home, upon my mother."
He goes on to say that "still another remembrance" steals upon him which proves that the adventure was improvised. Sharp assuages the reader not by being adequately dressed as I should have taken thought for had I foresee my exposure; though the resources of my wardrobe as well as constituent could be afforded.
"The main resource of a small New York boy in this line at that time was the little sheathlike jacket, tight to the skin; it also covered her in front with a single row of brass buttons—a garment of scant grace, assuredly, and compromised to my consciousness, above all, to allow light from an unforgotten source.
"I twas but a short time before those days that the great Mr. Thackeray had come to America to lecture on "The English Humorists," and proceeding from my father's library, in which some glimpse of me hovering, at an opening of the door, in passage or on staircase, prompted him to the armidable words, "Come be boy! Be boy! Meet me your extraordinary jacket!"
"My sense of my jacket became from that hour a heavy one—further enriched as my vision is by my shy appearance, but I am celebrated visitor, who struck me, in the sunny light of the animated room, as enormously big, and who though he laid on my shoulders the day before, would have hung the spectacles of wonder.
"I was to know later on why he had been so amused, and why, after asking me if this were the common uniform of my age and class, he remarked that I should go there. I should be addressed as 'Battons.' It had been revealed to me thus in a flash that we were somehow 'queer,' and though never exactly crushed by it I became aware that I at least knew him in Mr. Brady's visse. Beautiful most decidedly the loet art of the dauerreotype."
MEREDITH ON HIS OWN WORK
From the Boston Transcript
The letters of George Meredith open many an intimate glimpse into his literary purposes. We find him writing a memoir, D. Conway about "Benjamin's Career." Conway had evidence approached him in regard to an American edition, and Meredith resplies:
Tells What He Tried to Do in "Beauchamp's Career"
I rest bound to warn you of the nature of my work. It is not likely to please the greater number of readers. Mr. George Smith will take it for the Cormhill Magazine. It is philosophical—political, with no powerful
stream of adventure; an attempt to show the forces round a young man of the present day, in England, who was born fairly solid, though it is seen in the end that he does not altogether fail, has not lived quite in vain. Of course, his life was a difficult one.
A certain drama of self-conquest is gone through, for the hero is not perfect. He is born of the upper class, and is scarcely believed in by any man. In his youth, he is mistreated and it is then to be hated. At the same time the mild spirit of a prosperous middle class, that is not extremely alarmed, is shown to be above persecuting him. He is in danger of being thought dull save by those who enter his idea of the advancement of Humanity and his passion for it. In this he is a type. And I think his History a picture of a conflict, an action, and material ease and indifference, to be a necessary element of the picture."
Onite Different
A prison missionary was insisting to one of the guards that there is some good in everybody. To prove it, she sought out the prison demon and found him stroking a huge tomcat.
"There," said the woman, "a man who will pet a cat certainly has some love in his heart."
"Do you love that cat?" the woman asked the demon.
“Yes,” he replied, still stroking the animal, “you bet I did anybody who hurts that cat will do it over him.” He hit the bit the warden this morning.
The Woman—Oh, yes, dear! I tell everybody that.
The Man—Of course, you understand, dear. that our engagement was just a thought.
Secret
Father—My son, I worked my way through college.
17—Maybe you don't call it work to have to wash my runabout before I can take it out every Saturday afternoon. —Pelican.

"Could you be satisfied with love in a cottage, dearest?" sighed the young man.
"Certainly I could," responded the girl, who really loved him; "but there must be a breakfast room, a music bar, a cafe and a marble fireplace in the front hall."
