Water Problem Faces Caterers Contracting To Feed S.A.T.C.Men
Kitchens in Barracks, They Say Cannot be Used Until Connections Are Made
Quick Action Is Demanded
A Stranger Accustomed to Drinking Water Hates to Give Up the Habit
"Water" again showed up as the Ethiopian in the fuel rich this afternoon at a conference between the University and the caterers having the contract for feeding the S. A. T. C. men. The caterers bled into the barracks and the barracks kitchens as their reason for not being ready to feed the men. The University signed contracts with the caterers some time ago, but the caterers said kitchens could not be run without water. The conference, when held late this afternoon, pursued get-together immediate relief from this condition.
Students, army officers, faculty members and employees have been going about the Hill the last two days uncomfortable because of lack of water. Weak pressure on the Hill today made it almost impossible to get water from some faucets even if the water had been fit to drink, which it is not at this date, without having been boiled.
The absence of adequate feeding facilities has worked considerable inconvenience on many of the men. The Hill cafes have not room for so many men at the meal hours and even where men have abundant means to buy expensive meals they do not always have, so we are here for food. Water, said the caterers, or lack of it, was the direct cause of this inconvenience.
Last year the University carefully removed all the old water coolers that were used with bottled water and installed cute, little enameled sanitary drinking fountains that connected directly with the city water supply. These fountains, of course, are worse than useless now, even if they could be used. They could not be used for two reasons today. There was a trickle of water from some of them, which weak pressure. If there had been sufficient pressure there was no water that could be drunk without boiling.
One army man begged a friend this afternoon to tell him where he could get a drink of water on the campus. He had been working hard and was thirsty. In explanation of his odd request he said he had become accustomed to drinking water before he came to Lawrence.
Red Cross Will Begin School Year's Work In Surgical Dressings
Insignia
Women Who do 72 Hours Work May Wear Organization's Insignia
War activities on the Hill for women students will begin next Monday with the opening of the Red Cross surgical dressings room in Fraser Hall. The same room is to be used as last year, No. 205. Miss Margarine Lynn will have charge of the Red Cross activities again. How many days a week will she be open and陪 the number of women who report for the work and the number of supervisors obtainable to oversee the work.
An added incentive is offered for Red Cross work. Under a new ruling, seventy-two hours work entitles a worker to wear the official Red Cross emblem on her cap. This privilege has heretofore been granted only to graduates of authorized Red Cross courses.
Volunteers are needed to assist in the salvage department down town. Women with skill in millinery can be used there.

W.S.G.A. Sends Up Call For Help at Book Stall
The Woman's Student Government Association is asking women who have leisure hours, to help at the Student Book Exchange, Room 121, Fraser Hall. The association is doing a rushing business and needs more help. Formerly the exchange has been run by the council himself, but this year the women took it over and are making the exchange fill a big need for the students.
The exchange was opened Wednesday. Ten per cent of the profit from the books is to be given to the W. S. G. A. fund. If any one wishes to give books, the entire amount from the book fee is given. There is a particular demand for French books, also for education, history, chemistry and psychology books.
About six hundred books already have been brought in. Prices vary according to the condition and the price the individual owner asks for a book. Each book, when brought in, must have the name of the owner and the desired price marked in the front of the book.
Marine Corps Aviators Face Strict Standards When Entering Service
Lesser Requirements for Entry As Line Officer in the Marines
Aviators for the Marine Corps are particularly sought by Lieut. H. R. McPeak, who is to be in charge of the Marine Section of the University of Kansas Students' Army Training Corps, and is now recruiting the section, but candidates for commissions as line officers in the Marines also may receive the training provided here.
the requirements of candidates for aviation work with the Marines are more severe than they are for general service in the Marines explained Lieutenant McPeak. The latter requirements are not changed. These presuppose that the aviation section the applicant must be at least nineteen years of age, weigh between 130 and 170 pounds, and have completed at least one year in college. The applicant must have completed courses in algebra, geometry, both plane and solid; an trigonometry course; have made physics, but this may be waived if the mathematical preparation is suitable.
UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS, THURSDAY AFTERNOON, OCTOBER 3, 1918.
Lieutenant McPeak added that men seeking enlistment in the Marines, with view to becoming line officers, will be admitted at the age of 18, under the usual examination rules of the Corps.
"I should like to make it plain," said Lieutenant McPeak this morning, "that membership in the Marine Corps section of the S. A. T. C. here at the University does not insure a commission. This is just a preliminary training here. If the applicant has the necessary qualifications, and appears to be proper aviation material, he will be recommended for further instruction in the army. It is to young for the aviation camp, but suitable for a line officer he will be recommended for instruction at a Marine Corps officers training camp. If he fails, in the judgment of the officer in charge, in all these respects, he will be inducted into the Marine Corps as a private
"His entry into the Marine Corps section here puts him in the Marines for the war; whether or not he becomes an aviator, upon his own qualifications and his application to the duties assigned here."
Lieutenant McPeak's office will be on the second floor of Green Hall, and application for membership in person is made in person, by letter, or by telegraph.

Alibis Cannot Replace Liberty Loan Pledges
Suppose that a faculty member says:
That he is in debt and can not afford to buy even a $50 bond, but can afford to belong to an expensive club. He may be one of the most expensive forms of amusement;
Or, still supposing, that she says she cannot afford to buy more than $100 in bonds, but is known to be investing good sums regularly otherwise; and in addition has a good size salary and no dependents.
Or, that he has had heavy bills to pay and must regretfully refuse to take part in the Fourth Liberty Loan, known to be dabbling in oil stocks.
You would think that such a faculty member needed to have some information not found in the dictionary of patronism, wouldn't you?
Or, that she has invested all she can afford in previous Liberty Loans, but as a matter of fact has bought only one $50 bond in all three campaigns and bought a $250 set of furs at about the same time.
Men's Classes in Physical Education cannot be started until vocational training detachment moves from Gymnasium, which we except will be about Oct. 15. Men enrolled in these exercises are hereby excused until October 15—W. O. Hamilton, Director Physical Education.
But you don't think that there are any such faculty members, do you?
Men Not to be Housed In New Ad. Building
The new west wing and central part of the Ad Building are not to be used as a temporary barracks, the University authorities have decided. The government was in favor of putting the university building on hold until the university has no funds to install heating apparatus and as the building is badly needed for class and lecture rooms it was decided not to put it to a substitute use. Instead the construction of five barracks between Marvin and Anderson was method. These barracks will be occupied to capacity by engineering students.
The barracks at the University's medical school at Rosedale are to be finished by Saturday, it was announced.
Do you also heir the monitor should buy to the limit and go over the top Monday.
Misa Golda Fuger of Wathna and Miss Ethel Minger of Bern will be guests at the Alomannia house Saturday and Sunday.

Military Drill to be Required as On Campus—Captain Scher in Charge
The medical detachment at Rosedea will be in charge of a lieutenant sent down from the University and will have the same program of milionals under the same national sections have. Capt. B, T. Scher will be the commanding officer.
The men will go into the barracks some time this week. Men who enlisted in the Medical Reserve Corps last spring will live in the barracks and will be considered part of the S. A. T. C. Pre-medics, who are now enrolled in the collegiate section, will change to the medical detachment as soon as they have taken the required courses.

Captain Scher to Talk
At First Y. W. Meeting
Evelyn Rombaugh has announced that the first regular Y. W. C. A. meeting will be held in Fraser Chapel at 4:45 o'clock, Tuesday afternoon, October 8. Captain Scher will speak on "What is Your Patriotism Worth?"
on What is it out there?
on WHAT W. C. A, plans to hold weekly meetings throughout the year at which discussions of University activities will be open to all members.
The opening of the S. A. T. C. is expected to give the organization many opportunities for service, and war work of all kinds will be taken up.
Plain Tales From the Hill
Before this week is over you'll wish you had come up on the street car upon arriving in Lawrence, instead of arriving in state in a fifty-cent taxi.
"Huh, picking up what you throw down last year, aren't you?" asked Uncle Julem of the campus-cleaning firm. They puffed and red-dened seeteryly.
After last week's mud whir of sewing on buttons and hooks and eyes, women now have settled down to the calm routine of rush week.
How would you like to have attained the dignity of an enlisted man in the S. A. T. C., and have an older sister in school who calls youSON in the midst of a crowd? That's what one freshman is going through.
Jackies are scarce on the Hill, but the few who are here attract considerable attention. One sailor met a former landlady on Oread Avenue recently, and was more than confused when she embraced him and exclaimed:
"My dear boy, how wonderful it must be to get back on dry land again!"
Men in the trenches have nothing on K. U. students, when it comes to lack of food, drink, and general privation. What's more, they don't waste so many hours in vain efforts to obtain sustenance.
He had crossed the Mississippi (on a bridge) last week coming home, but that was the extent of his navigation.
No Persis, the Kanzas do not live on Oread Avenue any more. The Kanza house is an officers' club. All of them on duty with the S. A. T. C are there. Some of them are young and some are younger. All this is a warning. Don't call. They officers—yes, they do like it. And, hush. you do call 448 the rule is, it is said, what you have 'o talk to the senior officer first!
There's a sad fate in store for those. University women who insist upon sentencing paper, powder puffs, handchiefs, and hairpins promiscuously to be formed into a policing squad, with a lieutenant in charge, to pick up all feminine leavings, so the S. A. T. C. won't have such a man for them. This announcement, there'll be a rush of women to take the policing course.

Co-Operative Houses Needed at University Advisor of Women Says
Opportunities for Starting Student Homes Favorable
Must Economize This Year
Living
College Women Must Set Example in Simplicity of
"K. U. needs co-operative houses for women who are wholly or partly self-supporting," said Miss Alberta J. Corbin, acting adviser of women, in regard to the rooming-house situation in Lawrence.
"The war may possibly delay the coming of halls of residence but circumstances are at the present unusually favorable for starting co-operation." We have tried them out and they have been found invariably successful.
"We need halls of residence, and the Kansas Council of Women is working for them. Women students can help, by explaining clearly to candidates for the legislature that they know why we need the halls. Most of us are座位 to dormitories in the past has been due to ignorance of conditions."
Miss Corbin believes that her office should be able to direct students to places where they can have pure water and well selected food. Inspection of boarding houses is going on now, and an approved list is being prepared. The University has all the organization's capacity of food and water, and the present need is to make use of the organization.
"We must work for the permanent income amendment and we must begin at once," said Miss Corbin. "If we can make the people understand we shall win. Kansas is a big state, and the women students must help in the campaign, if every voter in the state is to be reached.
"To help corpin the war," declared Miss Corbin, "we must be physically and mentally vigorous. We shall fail in our duty to our country if we do not protect ourselves or deter terror. Women should live simply, keep early hours, take plenty of sleep and exercise regularly. This sort of life is certainly no sacrifice. It will lead to true economy—to the laying aside of our material possessions, in social life. Social life, in the best sense, should not be curtailed. Our women should endeavor to secure for themselves and their brothers wholesome plains and lands, as well as common interests. Here is perhaps our women's greatest opportunity to serve.
"The best thing we have," Miss Corbin believes, "is a body of women students, whose power of initiative and power of helpfulness are second to none. The women are also well organized, and I believe they will prove equal to any task that new conditions are bringing to us."

DOUBLE THE QUOTA AGAIN
THURSDAY, OCTOBER 3, 1918.
W E did it last spring. And we did it without much effort. People just chased the committee around with subscription for the Third Liberty Loan. It came easy.
It's the Fourth Liberty Loan now. The government expects a lot more from K. U. now, it expects $25,000 instead of $19,000. But it got $38,000 last spring instead of what it asked. And it's going to get $50,000 this year. We're going to double it again.
THE SENIORS; PITY THEM
POUR not out your compassion upon freshmen, you who have long been accustomed to paty them. They are in a new peace trusted, and things are different from the things which they have known but they have assistance to carry them through the difficulties which beset them. Consider the senior who comes back to her University (we can't his University with any degree of accuracy these days.) She puts her trust in tradition, even as she has before. She reads not the announcements or the bulletin boards or the newspapers. She goes to the gym to register and discover swarms of klaki-clad men who yell "Hold that line."
The courses of her major are as icebergs in summer—they are not. So she enrolls in zooogy and home decoration and fundamentals in infantry drill. She will hope to get a degree the middle of August.
She finds barracks built along her favorite path through the golf links. She finds military police in Green Hall. And there's no end to the number of people and things she doesn't find anywhere.
She has to do everything managing book exchanges and hostess houses to waiting tables in boarding clubs because there are no men. Sometimes she has found herself building furnace fires. There are no furnace boys. They are in the army now.
And she doesn't get any sympathy. When she finds no course in her major she is told that she has been here three years and ought to know how to manage things. When she finds sociology meeting in the former coal hole of Fraser instead of in administration she is told not to interrupt the class.
Have mercy on her! She's only a senior. And things aren't like they were when she was young.
If you have any, bring them to the W. S. G. A. book exchange in Fraser. The student book exchange has been one form of student co-operative organization profitable to the students and to the organization conducting it. The Men's Student Council organized the exchange and have been managing it for several years.
OLD BOOKS
This year only a handful of the men's council is back and most of those are in the service. But a book exchange was needed as a measure of war economy. The Woman's Student Government Association in the form of the student council stepped in to meet the emergency. They are receiving old books from students and selling them with a small percentage going to the council. Bring your old books to Fraser Hall.
THE SHOUTING DIES
Holidays and birthday parties are a bit unsettling. Everybody would rather sit around and talk it over than to go straight to work after the celebration. There's so much to say—how you would have arranged this and how becoming everybody's clothes were and how long you would remember the good time you had. It's a lot easier not to settle down.
The University has had two weeks of holiday
And Tuesday a special one to celebrate a birthday party. And almost everybody is still talking about it. But work has begun a day earlier in the week than it did last year, and the University faculty is expecting a quick settling down. Twelve weeks is a short time to acquire the fundamentals of a new subject or to get through advanced courses with credit. One can't afford to waste good time at the start. The turult and the shouting have died for the army and the navy and the marines on the campus. They settled down to work at one word from their C. O. It's time for the rest of us to do like-vise.

WAR-TIME READING
DAY by day the war books tumble helter-skelter off the presses. Private John Jones relates, in three hundred and fifty pages, why he never happened to go into action; Professor Drynaudst, with a string of micrographies after his distinguished name, expounds the significance of the Willy-Nicky correspondence in the light of the Defenestration of Prague; Miss Angelica Milkweed devotes a fat volume to explaining why the Bolsheviki, whom she met once on the streets of New York, are not really nice people; Dr. Abindab Smith discusses the relation between the Kaiser's brain and the bacillus of elephantiasis. All these things are very interesting, of course, but each new book bears a striking resemblance to some dozens that have proceeded it, and as life is short, and very busy these days, one cannot possibly hope to keep pace with the literary procession.
After all, it does not appear that the person who tries to read all the war books as fast as they appear knows any more about what is actually going on than the one who has long since given up in despair. The details are varied enough, but the essential facts, so far as they can at present be stated at all, are pretty generally understood by all who keep up a reasonably active perusal of newspapers and magazines. The seventeenth book on trench life does not add much to what one learned from the first. Most people live so largely in an atmosphere of war, they think of it so constantly because of its close relation to their daily existence, that an overdose of war books, taken in what should be hours of relaxation, is likely to upset the mental digestive apparatus.
For thoroughly enjoyable reading in these times, The Bellman heartily recommends novels written long before the war was dreamed of; before the trying times of Arnold Bennett and H. G. Wells; before novelists felt themselves compelled to wrestle with those insistent "modern problems" which have converted so many recent novels into unpleasant economic tracts. Why not escape, for a little while, into a land inhabited by pleasant people to whom the income tax presents no difficulties, who enjoy the possession of vast and useless acres in open defiance of an as yet unborn Lloyd-George, who have titles and are proud of them,—who, in short, are just as different as possible from the men and women on whom rests the heavy burden of winning the war?—The Bellman.

WHEN NAMES ARE CHANGED
ALL over the country the courts are busy with prudent changes of names. Ignatz Schmidt becomes Irving Smith; Ernest Wolf-shemer turns himself into Ernest Wolf; the Pfunds change to Pounds; the Bielefelders and Lautenschlagers to Joneses and Robinson's. Thus the discreet enemy alien takes on protective coloration, and so promotes his chances of survival. Moreover, he helps his neighbors in their dealings with him, for Pulvermacher and Sizomahay are beyond both American orthography and the American tongue.
But it is anything but new. Since the days of the first English settlements in the new world, in fact, there has been a constant reduction of foreign surnames to English forms, sometimes closely allied and sometimes very far-fetched. The land swarms, in truth, with Wises whose grandfathers were Weisses, and Manneys who descend from Le Maines, and Brownes who were born Brauns, and Sewells who started out in the world as Soules. Somewhere in my archives there is a long list of such changes. I remember two salient cases: Dillechay for De la Haye and Caron for Querrant.
Sometimes, instead of transliteration, there is actual translation. Thus Weisberg changes to Whitchill, La Forge to Smith, and Koch to Cook, as in the case of the late discoverer of one of the north poles.
A good many foreign names strike the Anglo-Saxon as cumbersome and uncouth, and so their bearers, after facing ridicule for a while, often change them. Thus there is a family of Dicks in America whose great-grandfather was a Schwettenwicke—a knotty name, indeed. Again, I once knew a man named Lawton whose grandfather had been a Lautenberger. First he shed the berger and then he changed the spelling and pronunciation of Lauten to make it fit into American habits of speech. A great slaughter of bergers and steins is constantly going on. Many a monosyllabic American surname of today was a gaudy roll of syllables a century ago.
The Jews, with their German and Russian names, change them readily and copiously, just as they adopt such Anglo-Saxon given names as Irving and Sydney. Edelstein becomes Noblestone, Goldschmidt becomes Goldsmith, Gutman becomes Goodman, Ochs becomes Oakes, Levinsky becomes Levin, Cohen becomes Cahn and then Conn. Moreover, the suffix hein gets a new pronunciation, making it rime with bean. All over America there are now Epsteens, Goldsteens, and Silversteens, though the old spelling is commonly retained. When it is, the pronunciation is an affection; for ein properly rimes with line, not lean.
Proper names, even as between countries so closely allied in speech and history as America and England, show strange and often unintelligible variations. Why Howells should be Hools in England is hard to make out—New York Evening Mall.

Hostess House Fireplace
Glows, Thanks to S.A.T.C.
Supply of Wood Brought From River—Cafeteria Will be Opened Soon
Thanks to a number of soldiers, who went up the river and got an army van full of wood, the open fireplace at the Hostess house in Myers Hall will be going this winter, to add cheer to the army lads will meet their friends.
Not only is the hostess house expanding until it is using all six rooms at full capacity, but it will within the next week open a cafeteria on the second floor of building. No one has been assigned to the opening, but the evening dinner will be served from 5:30 until 7:30 every day. The noon meal will be served if there is demand for it. I. Ruth Stevenson, home economics, 6, will have charge of the work. "I," as and of Uncle Sam's convenience, will be run on a "at cate" menu. Eliza Hilaz of the department of home economics has charge of the staff that will operate the cafeteria. The hostess house is open daily from 8 o'clock in the morning until 9:30 at night. Mrs. B. W., the official hostess, will direct the office of Duffield, secretary of the W. C. A. Miss Duffield, in turn, is responsible to the chancellor, and he to the war department.

Emporia May Cancel Game With University Owing to Weak Team
The Normal School Pleads That S.A.T.C. Has Upset Arrangements
May Break Relations Here
K. U. Athletics Also Badly Un settled But Will Stick To Schedule
The opening game of the University football season may not be with the Emporia Normals a week from Saturday, as scheduled, according to a letter received from the athletic management of that school. If the game is called off, athletic relations between the two schools will be at an end, according to Couch W. O. Hamilton.
Because of the opening of the S. A. T. C at the normal the normal team would be unable to make a "showing" they made to Ms. Hamilton, and consequently the team would rather not play K. U. this year unless the University insists. Coach Hamilton has insisted, and vigorously, that the game be played, and considers it likely that the contract will be failed.
MIXED UP HERE, TOO
With more than seventy men on for football, the past falltime has better prospects now than before at the University. A snappy玩 out last night, followed by a scuffle with Coach Jay Bomil's warrior bid, although he still admits that things are pretty much "up in the air."
Mr. Hamilton "Our football team is probably as much unsettled as the normal team," said Mr. Hamilton. "We are not positive yet that we can put an up-to-standard team into the field, but I don't want to canceling our attempt for that reason."
Passes and end runs were the features of last night's play. Both the Varsity and the freshmen showed up well on defense and offense. Each side took the ball for a time, and "Humpty" Wilson's yearlings showed as much aggressiveness as did the regular aggregation.
BOND SPEAKS HOPEFULLY
"The team is coming into shape well," said Coach Bond, "considering the number of men who have dropped out of the game. We will know better what to expect after a few more nights' hard practise."
Only twenty-five men have checked out blue uniforms to try out for the Varsity. This is considered a good showing in view of the large number of old football men in the service and the many freshmen of last year's team who failed to return. "Stomp" Foster, veteran quarter-back, was not in the game Wednesday night and Coach Bond took his plan most of the time. The men on last year's team also returned to school to be an important factor of this year's eleven, while a number of others with records still in the making will have to be reckoned with in the valley this season.
The twenty-five Varsity candidates are as follows:
John Bunn, William P. Conroy,
Lewis D. Duff, William Desmond,
Louis C. Foster, F. J. Farnsworth,
Clyde Farnsworth, Charles Heizer,
McKeena Hodges, Floys L. Jashley,

CRUSHEN A HEAVY LOT
Forty-eight freshmen, a bely hot eight have been working out on McCoool Field this week. An usually large number of first year men have started work, caused by the large enrollment of freshmen in all departments. Many all-state stars are on the squall and the average weight of the bunch will be in the 10s. G. Byington, R. Brigham George Chandler, H. F. Chandler, William Clark, I. E. Carpenter, E. C.

Naval Section S.A.T.C.
Fills Quota: Has 215 Men
Two hundred and fifteen men have enlisted in the naval section of the S. A. T. C, and no more men will be taken for the naval service.
Eighty-four have been sworn into the service. The others will not be sworn in next week because their orders have not yet been sent by their locl* draft boards. Lleut. R. B. Campbell, U. S. N. head of the naval office at Kansas City will administer the扣 to the rest of the sailors next week.
Sure, It's the Fault of the Women Every Time
History repeats itself. Since Adam's time women have been to blame and women will be to blame again if the University Y. W. Hostess House does not have a Victrola and records for the music loving S. A. T.
C. Somebody, nobody knows who,
delegated the raising of $75 for a machine and records to University women and their organizations. Nobody, everybody understands, will be surprised but the women if there is no music.
Mother Wilmot, hostess, and Miss Duffield, secretary of the Y. W. will be receive at any donation for a Victrola. Money, sugar, jewelry or any other valuable that can be traded for cash is acceptable. Five official collectors, experienced, be it known, will circulate among the women during registration and from women who have not yet learned the way to the University Y. W. Hostess House.
If the collectors miss any women, they can report to Dorothy Dawson, May Burnet, Jean Haines, Ruth Guild and Carol Martin.

Dick Wagstaff Drops "A Line" from France
Somewhere in France,
September 7, 1918.
My Dear Editor, the man, and an ardent supporter of The Kansan, I am taking the liberty of mailing you a copy of the "Stars and Stripes" the Yankas' official news-sheet. You probably wouldn't信服 you might enjoy looking it over.
There are certainly lots of K. U. men over here. I met three of the men that attended school at the same time I did, yesterday, whom I did not know were within 3,000 miles of me, Walter Goldtrap and Fred Campbell (Engineering) and Stewart Simmons (Law.)
Things are going O. K. with me in all particulars, good grub and plenty of it. This is a great life if you don't have anything to look at if the host who have weakened as if the
Hear that you have a training school in connection with the University, well all I can say is, after the war there is that good old New York harbor, they are going to have the time of their lives. It's a great war but a follow gets out of it just what he puts into it, that is if he doesn't have the time to do it.
I understand that most of the old boys have gone from K. U. now, but have tallied with a great many who expect to return to school.
We have a plan on foot for sort of a K, U, reunion, if we can get enough of the boys together at one time, and if we succeed in so doing you may rest assured that there is going to be one nightly flight and long Rock' Chalk,
Sincerely yours,
DICK WAGSTAFF,

Army Rules Govern Games
Football Men May go Limited Distances to Contests
Football practice in recreation hours will be the rule for the teams of the S. A. T. C. unless a special dispensable leave is granted, according to a communication received from Colonel R. I. Rees, of the committee on education and special training, it is the policy of the sports academy to athletics in all educational institutions.
Football and other schedules, however, will have to be arranged only with schools within a short distance of each other until after November 1. The best plan is to take long trips and specialized training will be impossible. Athletic directors and professors of physical education already at the University can be used in connection with intra-mural sports officers in charge of military training.
Until after November 1 football probably will be confined to games between companies of the S. A. T. C and games calling only for Saturday afternoon trips. After November 1 two games with schools requiring overnight trips may be scheduled and urloughs may be granted the mavericks.
Eligibility rules apply to student soldiers as well as to regular college students. No furlohurs will be granted to men who are not making satisfactory records in military and academic work. From Friday night until Sunday night is the limit for athletic trips.
Positions Open for Women
University women who wish to work for their board and room should apply to Miss Katharine Duffield who still has a number of such positions to offer.
There are places for table occupants in the library. The men will be unable to fill these positions as in former years and if they are filled it must be by women. Also anyone having a position to offer should notify Miss Duffield. She will be in her office in Myers Hall from 8 to 12 o'clock and from 1:30 to 4:30 o'clock. Telephone number 1315.

Dr. Jenkins Classifies Lieutenants Over There
Lieutenants are divided into two classes, the likeable and the other kind, by Dr. Burris A. Jenkins, noted pastor and a war correspondent for The Times, who visited on his visit to General Pershing in Paris Doctor Jenkins said:
"First I encountered a supercilious sergeant, then a lordly second lieutenant, then the general's own aid, a colonel, a modest, perfect gentleman.
"Others beside myself have observed how "swank," as the English put it, or "side," or "dog," or "airs," or "snobbiness," decrease in geometrical progression with officers' rank, age and especially service under them. He was never an hour or two, alone in a car, with a first lieutenant who had never smelled battle smoke and was attached to the perfectly secure and comfortable staff of Somebody or Other. He was an unbearable snob. You could not tell him anything, and, what was worse, you could not learn anything from him. He contradicted everything you said and had nothing to give in return. He did not mollish. There was nothing for it but absolute silence in dealing with such a chap, or silence broken only by monosyllabic replies.
"After a while we fell in with an old college mate of his, a captain. The captain had been a freshman when the lieutenant had been a junior. The latter had bossed the former, and you can well imagine how the caddish junior had lorded it over the mild freshman. Now the tables were turned. Our captain had gone out to sprig of a lieutenant, had passed through the baptism of fire, had lost nearly all his men in the terrible actions north of the Marro and had re-

received his richly deserved promotion. Orders of bravery and merit were upon his breast, and the scars of war on his body were visible. He was able to look at and he was admirable in conduct, gentle, thoughtful, considerate. And the shrimp shrived. We spent the better part of the day in that young captains company and I arrived from now, not far from now the lieutenant's face would not be known to me, if I met him in

Caterers Using Temporary Ar rangements Until Barracks Are Finished
Delay for Water Supply
Connection Now Being Made to Supply Water to Barracks Kitchens
Four hundred enlisted men in the S. A. T. C. were served dinner today by Robert Wargstaff and E. C. Bricken, caterers engaged by the University, and will continue to get their meals rapidly as the barracks can be finished, men will be moved in and will be served by the caterers. Men who have been forced to buy their own meals since being inducted into the military service will receive compensation for the meals they have paid for.
Men who were served today were the ones who had difficulty in obtaining food yesterday, and who needed a regular fare most. Lee's was able to serve 150 men early this morning by going from the other 50 were fed by Robert Wagstaff at Robinson Gymnasium, with the vocational training section.
It is now impossible to serve meals at the barracks because of lack of water. A six-inch main which will be laid along Twelfth Street from Louisiana to the barracks by the city, was W. Clandre, commissioned by W. W. Clandre, commissioned by the Although Mr. Clandre obtained the necessary priority order, the main has not yet been delivered, and it is not known when it can be laid. A temporary two-inch pipe will be laid to complete connections with the barracks within the next few days, and then may may receive their meals at the barracks. The new section will have to serve until the six-inch pipe is delivered, it was said
First New Barracks To Be Occupied Monday
The contamination in the city water is being eradicated by using chlorinated lime. City waterworks officials apparently are making every effort to obtain a pure and adequate water supply.
Miss Stella Simmonds
Assistant to Miss Corbirn
The two north barracks, Nos. 1 and 2, at the corner of Mississippi and Eleventh streets, will be ready for the men to move into next Monday. They are larger than the other buildings, and the two will accommodate them. Before the next two weeks, the University expects to have finished the barracks, and to move in the greater part of the S. A. T. C. men.
Miss Alberta J. Corbin, acting adviser of women, announces the temporary appointment of Miss Stella as an assistant in her department.
Miss Simmonds graduated with the class of 1916 from the University of Kansas, receiving her M. A. at College of Arts and Sciences.

Miss Simmonds started her graduation in teaching, expecting soon to leave for California.
Cantonment "Hut" Plan Is Not Yet Authorized
"Knowing as I do the work and purpose of the National War Work Council," said Frank Parker, secretary of the University Y.M.C.A., "it is my opinion that a regular war work service will be established here. If this is done, there will be a Y. M. C. A. Hut, such as serves the men at Funeral Home or other places, but be several assistants to the general secretary, which will make it possible to give the men of the S. A. T. C complete Y. M. C. A. service.
"While we are expecting the War Work Council, the national organization, to take over the work here, we have not been so instructed yet, and we are working on new orders for the carrying out of plans for the plans of the cantonment."

No general lecture course on war foods, such as was given last year, will be offered this year, at least for the first quarter, Miss Sprague said
Uniforms Issued Today To 500 Men of S.A.T.C. Inducted October 1-2
Provision is Not Yet Made for Members of the Naval
Uniforms were issued today to the 500 men who were inducted into the S. A. T. C. October 1 and 2. Men are being inducted into the service as fast as their induction papers and releases are sent from their local draft boards, but many of the papers are delayed.
Only men of the infancy section are receiving uniforms now. No provisions has been made by the War Department for uniforms for men of the middle sections. No orders have been received to issue uniforms and no orders for students to purchase them. At present few uniforms can be purchased from the Great Lakes Station for study here are provided with outfits.

Mayor to Washington To Obtain U. S. Aid In Improving Water
Government Will be Asked to Release Materials for New Plant
Plant
Mayor George L. Kreeck has gone to Washington to obtain the co-operation of governmental authorities in improving the Lawrence water supply and in obtaining material to finish water works plant. After a delay of year, he was assigned key business, incompetence and any other albi that might be handy, Lawrence apparently is to have immediately an adequate supply of pure, soft water. Mayor Kreeck hopes to help Washington authoritative orders that will give the city the material needed to finish the new water works plant.
The plant is about 85 per cent finished, it was said, but further work has been held up by inability to obtain material. Material needed to finish the plant is among the materials used in war industries. Now that the University and Lawrence are the leaders in this field, making of soldiers and officers, it is believed there will be little difficulty in obtaining the material.
Until the new plant is put into commission the old plant will be used to its utmost facilities in giving unplouated water and plenty of it. But do not drink city water that has not been boiled.
Coming of Women Before Bar racks Are Done, Causes Temporary Crisis for Men
Y.M.C.A. Finds Rooms For Homeless S.A.T.C.
A temporary crisis in providing lodgings for several hundred S. A. T. C. men was met the first of the week by Frank Parker, secretary of the University Y. M. C. A. and his assistants. Many rooming houses which had intended to provide for women had taken men temporarily until October 1, at which time it was expected that the men would be joined by the men occupying them. Unfortunately, the buildings were not completed, and the men, forced to give up their other rooms, had a difficult task finding accommodations.
"We have found rooms for everyone who has asked for them," said Secretary Harriet R. Harris of the "all-age" times she had only two rooms in view. Although the distance to the Hill is great, many persons out of the rooming house dislike the quiet atrium Homes for the time being to the St. Mary's men, greatly relieving the situation.

Subscriptions, or Pledges to Buy To be Taken by Building Sub-Committees.
Canvass Starts to Sell $50,000 Liberty Bonds At University of Kansas
Three purposes actuate the canvassers for Fourth Liberty Loans now at work on the campus of the University of Kansas.
They are out to sell bonds.
bonds.
They are out to take ridges from persons who will buy bonds.
They are out to take the report of members of the faculty and employees who have already bought bonds of the Fourth issue.
Incidentally, too, they are out to get the reasons of any on the campus who, apparently ought to be buying bonds, decline to do so.
Plans for the canvass of the University faculty, for the raising of the $50,000 set as the goal--double the quota assigned by the county committee—were discussed at a meeting of the finance committee in Fraser Hall yesterday afternoon. Prof. U. G. Mitchell presided.
"We want to do our part in over-subscribing this loan," said Professor Mitchell. "The more we over-subscribe the loan, the greater will we promote the morale of the boys in France.
"In taking subscriptions for the Third Liberty Loan, we found that many of the members of the faculty preferred to deal direct through their banks, so we are prepared this time to take the pledges of any who may not want to buy bonds through the solicitors. For such, we have pre-paid pledge cards, which will be transferred to the banks. The banks will report back to the U.S. government committee October 1, at the close of the loan soliciting period, any persons who have failed to take up their pledge.
"I want to say, too, that we have preserved from the previous campaign cards of persons who did not subscribed to our efforts of these, no doubt, will be able to buy bonds this time, but if the reasons offered then were more excuses, and the excuses are offered again, we shall have to consider the case seriously.
The government has provided yellow cards on which reports of apparent slackers are to be made. Fortunately the University has not had to use any of these yellow cards. But we have the cards on hand."
At the meeting yesterday supplies were distributed to the various committee members, and they were instructed to begin their canvass at the first meetings of the canvass will be made at a meeting next Wednesday afternoon.
Dr. H. B. Pears, superintendent of Haskell Institute has asked the University Y. C. A. for twelve University women to teach Sunday school classes from 2:45 to 3:15 each Sunday. On account of the closing of Carlisle this year, Haskell has an unusually large enrollment of women. For this reason, the call has been made to K. U.
Immediately following the general committee meeting, the Fraser Hall sub-committee met to plan its work.
Haskell Asks for Dozen Sunday School Teachers
Miss Dorothy Sandberg is chairman of the Y. M. committee having this matter in charge, and she will be at the Y. W. C. A. office Saturday at 11 o'clock to meet any young women who would be willing to teach a class at Haskell, either as a regular teacher, or as a substitute.
The University weather report for the month of September has been published. This report has been kept up continuously since 1868, the records started by the late Dr. F.H. Snow, a one time chancellor of the University.
September Weather Is Uneventful, Report Shows
The past month has been unusual, with a mean cloudiness considerably below the average. The relative humidity was comparatively low, and the total wind mileage was almost 1000 miles below the average.
The University Seismograph recorded one earthquake September 7. The waves covered a time of about two hours, reaching a maximum motion on the recording needles of one half inch. The estimated distance was 5,400 miles, but the direction could not be ascertained.
Announcement was made this morning at drill that a fund has been provided sufficient to provide loans of $5 to $15 for about fifty members of the S. A. T. C. to whom the delay in induction into the service is proving embarrassing. Application is to be made at the adjutant's office.
Freshman Engineers Four,
Times Usual Enrollment
Enrollment of the freshman class of School of Engineering this year is four times the normal enrollment of the class, according to figures given out today by Dean G. C. Shaad. The total enrollment in the school this year is 1025, of whom 844 are freshmen.
Of the upper classmen, thirty-one are taking the new course in chemical warfare. About a hundred of the new students will be in the School of Engineering. This does not include the number sent here from the Great Lakes camp.
Plain Tales From the Hill
S. A. T. C, men may well be glad that they are not permitted to take work in the School of Education. Be prepared, with all their other troubles, there would be Dr. Schwegler's vocabulary to attempt to assimilate.
Several K. U. women have asserted that the male population of the globe had better keep on wearing military clothes after the war is over, if they want to continue to attract attention and admiration. Perhaps they haven't considered that ever khaki might get monotonous.
The romantic freshman who wakes up every morning, and enjoys a fresh meal in the vocational band plays "We can't get away having a hard time to get all her sleep.
"Gee," said the freshman, "I sure hope they don't ever line us up along the bank of Potter Lake and order us to 'Fall In.'"
Every company in the Students' Army Training Corps, so we are informed, lays claim to having the "finest lieutenant and the meanest sergeant." of any company in the organization.
Hours for Inoculation At Hospital Changed
He dashed into his rooming house at full speed and announced breathlessly "I'm a soldier now 'cause I've passed the exam," and the first thing he did was to go down town and send a service pin to his girl.
Revised hours for the giving or typhoid inoculations at the University Hospital were announced this morning by Miss Mary Hight, superintendent of the hospital. Under the new schedule, women will be inoculated Wednesday between 9 and 12 o'clock between 2 and 5. Men, not in the S., A, T, C, may apply for inoculation at the same hours Thursday.
The University Health Service also keeps a physician at the hospital daily from 8 until 11 and from 4 until 5 for consultation by students. Emergencypasses will be attended to at any hour if the University Hospital is called.
Miss Haight reiterated the Heatht Service caution that all colds should be reported to the hospital, and that all precautions should be taken to prevent the spread of colds, as well as any other illness.
Pledges of About $4,000
To Y. M. War Fund Due
A draft for $778.16, the amount of pledges to the Students' Friendship War Fund paid in thus far this year, was forwarded yesterday to Francis S. Phraner, New York City, treasurer of the fund, by Registrar George O. Foster. This amount brings the total amount in cash contributed by University students to the fund to $858.122.
The fund was subscribed by the students. This leaves about $4,000 still to be selected. The fund is used in war relief work among students "over there."

Downtown Hops Taboo, University and S.A.T.C. Authorities Announce
Dances in Public Halls Not Authorized by the Hill This Week
Councils May Lift Ban
Men's and Women's Governing Associations May Give Dance Saturday
The dances which are scheduled for tonight and Saturday night down town are not authorized by the University, according to Miss Alberta L. Corbin, adviser of women, and Acting Dean D. L. Patterson. The Men's Student Council managed the varsity dances this year, but this year they have not organized. Unless dances are given by some recognized student organization and have the approval of the University authorities, students are not permitted to attend them. Some penalties are the result of disregarding the rules. All men enlisted in the S. A. T. C. are under regular University rules.
Captain Schoen said: "All members of the S. A. T. C are first of all students of the University, and must obey the rules of the institution. In addition they are soldiers subject to orders of their military superiors. All the army officers at the institution will to instill due respect for authority or of the military be of the University or of the military consequently existing rules of the University may be considered as 'standing officers' for all members of the S. A. T. C, to obey or receive military punishment for violations."
An authorized dance may be given Saturday night by the members of the men's and women's student councils. It will be announced tomorrow. The following rules govern dances at the University:

FRIDAY, OCOBER 4, 1918
From the looks of things in the School of Engineering, women will publish the "Kansas Engineer" next spring.
It's all been done without any fuss about it; University women are taking the places the men held last year and nothing goes along any the worse for it. They are in the offices, and the laboratories. They are running the college publications and the student book exchange and may take over the college dances. The work is all theirs this year.
"Holding down one man's job is great sport," one woman said, "But I don't know as I am qualified to hold down three." She just happens to be secretary to a dean and to the head of a busy department and an assistant in the chemistry lab.
Truly the old order passeth away. In Green Hall, where formerly was freedom and mirth unrestrained, appear military police. And the cracks in the walk in front of the law steps serve no purpose whatsoever.
Notice to all women boarding on the Hill; if you really want to win your soldier's undying affection invite him to breakfast and to lunch. Military regulations take no thought for distance or convenience and its impossible to carry a dinner pail to drill.
Conservation note: Save those furs until the annual gas and coal shortage begins.
Our idea of the most important thing: The contest which two New York professors are waging over the correct Gaeliic root of the perfectly good American word "skedaddle."
MILITARY ETIQUETTE
The lieutenants and the sergeans and the student soldiers, when they talk to their commanding officer say "Yes sir" and "No sir" and "I wish to report, sir," as a mark of respect and a sign of their readiness for duty. The officers' speech is as correct as their salute.
Some of us on the campus are merely civilians and we don't salute when we meet a gold hat cord or two silver bars. We say "How do you do" or "Good morning." Which is as it should be. But some of us, when we are doing business with the military authorities, sometimes when we are asking favors from them, we say "Uh-huh" and "Huh-uh."
REASONS VS. EXCUSES
"I am hopelessly in debt; I cannot buy Liberty bonds," someone on the Hill told bond solicitors for the Third Liberty Loan. Undoubtedly he was honest in his belief that he could not buy more bonds. When the subject of spending—investing some money, rather—was presented, the first thing that came into his mind was those unpaid bills. Unpaid bills have a way of obtruding at times.
To the outside observer, however, the reason assigned for not buying bonds appeared more like an excuse. Some way it reminded one of the man who declined to lend his axe because he "was going to have soup for supper."
History repeats itself, is a saying almost too trite to be quoted. However, the way in which England repeats history in the matter of dealing with the threat of overdoses foe has nothing at all trite about it. There is the instance of the Spanish Armada, and there is another story which is to be found in the Anglo-Saxon Chronicle for the year 897 A. D. In that year Alfred the Great had to contend with the Danish plunderers of East Anglia and Northumbria, and the way he set about it was to think how best to outdo the enemy on his own ground. He ordered the building of long ships which were full nigh twice as long as the others. They were not shaped either after the Frisian or the Danish model, but so as he himself thought that they might be most serviceable."
Six of the pirates appearing off the Isle of Wight and laying waste the coast up to Devonshire, the King's men and the King's ships went out and fought them so that only one of the Danish ships got away to the East'Anglian coast. It is the same story, with variations, which Mr. Lloyd George had to tell the House of Commons, the other day, when he spoke of the German submarine menace to the country's very existence and the way British seamen have dealt with it.—Christian Science Monitor.

University's Enrollment Of 3006 is Greater Than In Banner Year 1916-17
S. A. T. C. Brings Greatly In creased Numbers of Men— 1,000 Women Expected
Men Outnumber Women 2-1
Even Enrollment of Women Is Expected to Exceed 1917-18
Registration for this year in the University already exceeds the entire enrollment for the University's banner year of 1916-1917, according to figures from the registrar's office. The figures for this year—that is, the academic year alone, excluding the summer session—show 3006 students, 921 being women. These figures do not include the medical students in the Rosedale school, which she directed at the department. The University's former banner year was the year of 1916-1917, with an enrollment of 1006 women and 1303 men.
At the close of last year, there were 1018 women, but the indications at the registrar's office now are that the women's enrollment will reach or exceed this figure next quarter, as new students are coming in every day to enroll. At the close of last year there were only 1328 men, the large increase this fall being due to the S. A. T. C. Of the 2085 men now enrolled, between fifteen hundred and seventeen hundred are in the S. A. T. C.
Men Not in S.A.T.C. and Women Required to Take Physical Training Work
University Senate to Appoin Committees to Consider Exemption Claims
At the first regular meeting of the State Friday, October 4, the following
"Physical training shall be required of women students, and of men students not required to take military drill, to the extent of three hours a week for all freshmen and sophomores, and two hours a week of all others. This physical training shall be in charge of the department of Physical Education. Authority for these committees is three times each, one for men and one for women. These committees shall be elected by the Senate."
Professor Sisson says that there will probably be another meeting of the Senate this Friday, for the eleventh academic education exemption committees.
Prof. D, L. Patterson and Prof. F, E. Kester were elected as members of the Disciplinary Committee to sue the University of Burlick and Professor Patterson.
The motion was also passed that Dr. Goetz be authorized to grant temporary exemptions for women students in physical education until such time as the Senate committee on exemptions is elected.
Edgar Wertheim, formerly of the University of Chicago, and William F. Lange, of the East Texas State Normal College, have been engaged by the University to instruct in the department of chemistry, and have begun work here. Mr. Wertheim has done graduate work at Northwestern and the University of Chicago. Mr. Lange was graduated from William Jewell College, has done graduate work at the University of Missouri, and will continue to do graduate work in the department of chemistry here.

Four Hundred Will Come From Kansas and 95 Negroes From Missouri
Next Vocational Training Contingent at University Will Have 500 Members
Just as soon as the 350 men of the vocational section of the S. A. T. C. finish their course October 15, they will leave the University of Kansas for active service, and will be follow-up. They have of 500 men to take the same course.
According to terms of a draft call issued October 4 by Provost Marshal Crowder, 400 men from Kansas and 95 colored registrants from Missouri are to come to the University of Kansas October 15 for the usual period of vocational instruction. Registered men who wish to enter the service through the vocational course may volunteer any time before October 12, and if the various district quotas are not filled by that means on that date, additional training be selected, and sent to Lawrence to receive the course. This first call since General Crowder suspended the October entrainment calls on account of the Spanish influenza epidemic at many of the army camps. The total number called for service at this time is 29,999, of whom 980 will be negroes.

Salvage Work Soon to be Organized—New Activities Are Planned
Compresses to Be Task For Women of University
Until further instructions are received the surgical dressings classes at the University will make compresses, which will be turned into the Lawrence Red Cross chapter. The quota of work for the down town nurses has been so far no arrangements have been made to make these on the Hill.
The surgical dressings room, 2050 Fraser, will be open every afternoon from 3 until 6 o'clock. Miss Margaret Lynn, director of war work for women, will have office hours from 10 until 12 o'clock.
Prince Maximilian, the new German imperial chancellor, announced to the Reichstag, Saturday, that he had sent a note through the Swiss government to President Wilson, requesting the President to take up the question of bringing about peace. The chancellor said Germany could accept President Wilson's message to congress of January 8, 1918; and his New York speech of September 27, as the basis for negotiations.
In addition to surgical dressings work, the salvage work will be organized this year and will be under the direction of a committee of students. They will co-operate with the Lawrence Red Cross. Women who will work at the salvage headquarters down town are asked to volunteer.
Women also will be chosen to give a certain amount of time each week at the cafeteria in Myors Hall. Later in the fall other activities will be organized, and every woman will have an opportunity for some form of war work, according to Miss Lynn.
Contest With Emporia Opens Football Season On McCook Saturday
Preliminary Game Expected to Give First Line on Available Material
The 1918 Jajayhawk team will meet the Emporia Normal eleven on McCook Field Saturday in the first football game of the season, in spite of reports that the game had been called off and the efforts of the Normals' athletic director to cancel the A message saying that the Normals play was received this morning by S. O. Hamilton, director of athletics.
Because of the opening of the S. A. T. C. at the Emporia school and the poor football prospects, it was deemed impossible to make a good show, so efforts were made to cancel the game with the University team, the statement being made that Emporia would rather not play the scheduled game unless K. U. insisted. In his speech, he athletic Director Hamilton did insist, and intimated K. U might find it necessary to seve athletic relations with the Normals. This was the course adopted with Baker under similar circumstances a few years ago.
"The game will be played chiefly to see whether K. U, as well as Emporia will make a good showing this season," said Mr. Hamilton this morning. "That is the main idea of the early season games—to get a line on whether our teams. We can't tell now whether we are in the main team, showing at all this year, and for that reason we want to get start as soon as possible."
The line-up for Saturday's game has not yet been definitely selected, but it is certain that Coach Jay Bond will make use of the occupation to try out several men new to the Varsity. Nothing is known here of the Teachers' other than their own admission of a squad of less than usual calibre.
The game will begin at 3 o'clock Saturday afternoon, the week-end date having been selected to accommodate the student soldiers. The north bleachers will be unreserved. Reserved seats will go on sale this week for $40 each. The gymnasium. They will be for the town, and the box office at McCook Field will open at 10 o'clock the morning of the game.

Journalism Building is First to Report Subscription More Than Doubled Quota
(1) —Please call for class cards in Room 119, Fraser.
"The workers are hard at it, and the subscribers are coming through in good shape," said U. G. Mitchell, chairman of the Liberty Loan campaign, when asked if the University would be able to double its quota. "I hope for a quick and decisive victory for the loan campaign."
The first building to turn in cards to the amount of double its quota was the Journalism Building. A big boost was given the campaign in that building by the purchase of $1,000.00 worth The Daily Kanman. This purchase was made on the amply on hand at the end of the year, 1917-18.
The campaign on the campus will be practically ended by Wednesday night according to the plans of the committee, and it is confidently expected that $50,000 will be in sight by that time.
Notice to Instructors in S. A. T. C.

Plain Tales From the Hill
For the early morning drill, there seems to be no place quite like the paving in front of various sorority houses.
The girls put aside their jersey dresses and furs this morning, and appeared in gingham or mildly blouses. The inevitable jersey dress will be used only for dress occasions from now on.
S. A. T. C. men who have been standing in line around Green Hall for the past three weeks will be relieved of that monotony, and now may do their standing on the drill field.
"That chap couldn't keep step with a snake," said the girl who watched a newly enlisted man slouch down the Twelfth Street hill.
Uniforms make it a bit hard for K. U. women to decide the all-important question of who is "keen" and who is not.
Owing to last week's famine, the egg olive sandwich and the milk chocolate have become University traditions.
The intulgent mother of a seventeen-year-old freshman has decided that the fare and rooms at a certain fraternity house are better than at the rooming-houses, and has had her son take his suit-case down to the chapter house and move in. The brethren are at a loss to know what to do, but they will probably pledge him, "C'est la guerre," they say.
Just after pledge service Saturday morning a number of freshmen went to the hospital and asked for gargle. Which shows that the scientific point of view is spreading and that the world moves on.
People are serious this year. Look out the window of your class-room and see the fellow leaning against the tree, rapidly memorizing the "Manual of Arms."
A number of K. U. women who were here last year would like to advance to the west end of the campus and have a look at the progress which has been made on the Ad. Building. If they could meet some place and go over in a body it might be arranged.
Preventing of Influenza Discussed by Cabinet
The chancellor's cabinet met in special session this afternoon to consider the danger of influenza spreading in the University and to determine methods of preventing or combating it when cases called by Chancellor Strong when issued a manual number of absences was received in many classes this morning.
The chancellor did not know the extent of the preventive measures that might be taken. They probably would include the forbidding of large gatherings indoors at motion picture theaters or similar gatherings, he said, and the visiting of other cities that are centers of infection.
"We do not know how much influenza there may be in Lawrence," said the chancellor. "We're trying to get ahead of it. Whether the unusually number of absences in classes indicates anything we have not deter-mented, it is here in any extent we should take precautionary measures at once."
A suggestion has been made by Dr. Ida Hayt that the Sigma Xi Society undertake to place on the campus a suitable memorial to Dr. S. W. Williston, the first dean of the Medical School, whose death occurred a short time ago. A meeting of the society will probably be held soon to consider the nature of the memorial and the plans for obtaining it.

October 15 is Last Day For Students to Enter S.A.T.C.ofUniversity
Drilling and Class Work to Be Well Under Way Early Next Week
Barracks Being Occupied
Marine Corps Section May Be Filled from Draft Quotas If Necessary
"All men who are intending to enter the Student Army Training Corps at the University of Kansas must do so before October 15," said Capt. Bruno T. Scher, commandant, this morning. According to orders received recently from the War Department, no man can be inducted into the S. A. T. C. after that date and all induction papers and competent orders are at that time returned to the War Department.
The enrollment of men in the Student Army Training Corps continues each day and from all indications it is thought that many will be here at the last minute to try to enter. The doors of the commandant's office will close at 12 o'clock midnight, October 15 for all enrollment.
October 15 is set as the dead line for enrollment of men because after that time the drilling and class work will be progressing rapidly and if there are continually admitted to the ranks, it would interfere with the training.
FEW ENTER MARINE SECTION
The 140 men who will fill the quotes for the marine section must volunteer before October 15. If the number can not be raised at the University the quota will be filled by men sent in here from different training stations and perhaps by voluntary induction from the different draft boards. On account of the high qualifications of the men in this section of the Student Army training corps there have been few applications for admission to this section. All applicants must be 18 years old, and have at least sophomore standing. According to Lieut. H. B. McPeak who is in charge of this recruiting, only a few men are in sight for this section.
More than a hundred of the men in the S. A. T. C. spent their first night in the army barracks on McCook last night. These were men who have not been able to get rooms. Although not all the equipment is in the barracks yet the men were made comfortable. Cots and blankets are here and enough to accommodate the men were put up in the first barracks. Men who have not had suitable quarters since their arrival in Lawrence, on account of overcrowded conditions, will be taken care of in the barracks.
HUNDRED MEN IN BARRACKS
STUDY EVERY NIGHT BUT ONE
The men will have only one night off this week, coming to Captain Scher, and that will be Saturday. Friday will be devoted to study periods for the work to be done Saturday morning.
Lieut. Chaucey Hunter
Visits Campus Scenes
The supervised study of the men in the S. A. T. C. will be held in the large study halls that are being built in each barracks. If this will not accommodate the men they will use the rooms in University buildings. Supervised study for the men will not start until all the men are in the barracks.
Lieut. Chauceun Hunter, c'17, is in Lawrence on a 2-day visit with old friends. He is on his way from Fort Sill, Ok., where he has been taking artillery instruction, to Camp Caster, Mich., where he will join an artillery regiment. Mr. Hunter left school in the spring of 1917 to attend the first officers' training camp at Fort Riley. He was commissioned as a second lieutenant and since then has seen varied service in cavalry and infantry regiment at Camp Funston, at Camp Jackson, S. C., and Fort Sill, Mr. Hunter hopes his new assignment will send him overseas soon. He was a member of Alemannia at the University.

MONDAY, OCTOBER 7, 1918.
Peace in America half a century ago did not come by "conferences" between political leaders, but by the message from the leader in the field that he was ready to lay down his arm. Peace now will come in much the same way.
Those new engineers over at Marvin Hall are already beginning to absorb some of the atmosphere, even if they have been here only three weeks. They are beginning to cast the evil eye on the mere college students in their classes.
W don't agree with the Starbeams man at all. We don't want the kaiser condemned to a diet of cornbread—that's far too good for him. We want him to have nothing but Lawrence water.
The shortage of coal and the shortage of sugar and all the numerous other shortages are going to be as nothing compared to what the shortage of library dates will be when military regulations go into effect on the campus.
According to all reports, the breakfast provided by Uncle Sam at Barracks 1 and 2 is far superior to the piece of cold toast and cup of scorched cocoa snatched from the boarding house table five minutes before the 8 o'clock whistle blows.
It won't be long before there'll be one hundred and forty martens on the campus to "tell it to."
THE CAPTAIN SPEAKS
CAPTAIN SCHER is an extremely busy man. He just has 2500 men to provide with food and clothing and shelter and to turn into good soldiers in a very short time. He has a medical detachment, a vocational section, and navy and marine units to watch over as well as the infantry section. In addition he must interview all candidates for officers' training camps and answer all the fool questions people in general ask about the army and the war.
Tuesday afternoon he is going to steal a little time to talk to the women of the University at the first Y. W. C. A. meeting in Myera Hall. It is his first appearance before them and he will bring them a soldier's message. He will tell them something of the part they are to play in the military scheme of things. He can't meet everybody personally but he can meet every woman at the meeting tomorrow.
THE NERVOUS WRECK; A FABLE
THERE was once a student who spent all the October days in the laboratory and the library. He worked with windows shut so that his gas would burn efficiently and aid his work. He breathed noxious gases and handled dusty books from early in the morning until late at night. He spent his evenings at his study table and worked until far into the early morning. He shut out all longings for the October out-of-doors and devoted himself to labor.
But with all his labor he accomplished nothing. His results in chemistry were far from accurate and his note books were never ready. He flunked his quizzes and was reprimanded by the professor who had fervently praised his industry. And finally he took to his bed with a nervous fever and babbled deliriously of zinc sulphate and the internal reforms of Frederick the Great. Then they sent him to a hospital where he was kept many moons.

FOREIGNERS
TO be "outlandish," according to Webster, is to be "barbarous, uncouth, unfamiliar of aspect or actin, out of the way, strange, bizarre"; in general, it is a derogatory term. The next step is to the most 'basic form, "outland," which is "land lying beyond the limits of occupation or cultivation"; and the same process develops "outlander," which stands revealed beneath all eupheny of definition as meaning simply a "foreigner."
by how many persons American-born, accustomed to the inflow of peoples from all lands, has not this derisive term, "outlandish," been used as a common means of characterisation? The Italian organ grinder—the "wop," the "guinney," the "dago"—with his velvetten breeches, his gay but greasy waistcoat, his garlanded Alpine hat, his monkey and his wheezing instrument, has always been to Americans an outlandish creature, however natural he might have been on his own soil. Similarly with the exclamative, Alphonse-and-Gaston Frenchman—to be dialectally precise, the "frog-eater"—of whom the geographies taught little more than that he came of a "pleasure-love people, fond of dancing and light wines"; the sibilant "Jap"; the "Chink," sung-song, slippered, black-jacketed; the Mexican "greaser"; the "Bohunk," the "Scandise;" the "Limie" (British tar); the "Dutchman"; each with his distinctive and traditional caricatured outlandishness.
This uncharity toward the foreigner is not a trait singular to the American. He shares it to a greater or lesser degree with all peoples. Probably the word "outlandish"—at any rate the idea is translatable into all languages. The greater the seclusion of a people, the more significant, it will be found, the term do become. For example, in China, until recent years, any one who dwelt outside the "Middle Kingdom" was not only a foreigner but a devil. As late as the beginning of this century the most cultured European was to the most benighted Chinese coolie not only outlandish but an unequivocal barbarian. It need scarcely be said that to a very large number of Chinese this distinction still holds good.
The geographies of the next generation will paint a far different picture of the Frenchman, now that the Marne and Verdun have illumined him in fuller figure. He no longer will be outlandish in our eyes. The Brition for us will not be the monocled imbecile of the stage, although the monocled imbecile quite likely will survive war and time; the change will be one of perception. Long whiskers and Cossack ferocity of mien no longer will characterize the Russian. It is even conceivable that the "wop," the "Chink," and the "Jap" will be able to walk abroad unattended by the deprivation of the American gamin—although it is true that this is an extravagant prophecy, boydom being everywhere the very root form of barbariy.
There is another side of the picture. The energy of the war having smoothed national egotism into a saner manifestation, there will be less outlandishness. Not only will the eye of the world have become cosmopolitanized in its range of perception, but the world itself will have changed its habitude. Personal and spiritual association in a high cause will have leveled many an angle.

4th Liberty Loan
The Enemy Is Watching
By NEWTON D. BAKER, Secretary of War
The supreme moments of our struggle with Germany have now come.
We have carried our first armies across three thousand miles of ocean and joined the issue of battle with the military power of a nation that has been for forty years preparing its plans and its weapons for its present attempt to dominate the world. We have had to put forth an immense effort and spend a fabulous
sum in order to make, in so short a time, an adequate beginning for our gigantic task.
But it is only our beginning. We must follow it with greater energy and support it with increasing power. Men, munitions, ships and supplies must go to Europe in a larger and larger stream. We must redouble our blows and add constantly to the strength of those blows, if our initial effort is not to be wasted.
This Means That Our Fourth Liberty Loan Must Be Larger Than Its Predecessors, More Enthusiastically Supported and More Quickly Than Ever Subscribed
The enemy is watching anxdously for the first sign that we are faltering.
Our Government Loans should go "over the top" as eagerly as our soldiers do, in order to carry with them the terror of furious attack. Our dollars must rain upon the enemy as overwhelmingly as our hail of bullets or our storm of shells.
We are fighting for the liberty of the world, for the triumph of our ideals of democracy and self-government over the last great advocate of force upholding injustice. We are buying with our Liberty Loans the security and joy of our people for generations to come. No price could be too high to pay for such a victory—no cost too great for such a purchase.
Lend the Way Our Boys Fight-To Your Very Utmost!

Iowa Defeats Nebraska With Two Touchdowns In Season's First Game
OCTOBER 7,1918.
Hawkeyes Average Ten Pounds to the Man Heavier, but Are More Aggressive
Flashing a brand of football which outclassed the Nebraska eleven, the Iowa Hawkeyes troqueed the Cornhuskers Saturday, 12 to 0, on the Lincoln gridiron.
Nebraska's beefy forwards, playing in their first game of the college season, were outcharged by the agressive Iowa line-men, while the Hawkeye backs plowed through so consistently and effectively that both of the touchdowns credited to Iowa were fairly earned.
A third Iowa touchdown was in prospect, but the final whistle halted the Hawkeys after they had smashed their way down the gridiron and were within four yards of the Nebraska goal.
The lown offensive was brilliantly executed in the third period, when the Hawkeyes counted their pair of touchdowns. The lighter Iowa forwards tore the center quintet of the Husker line into ribbons, and the Colt Holman, the three backs, sifted through in a steady procession of gains.
Slater, Iowa's giant negro tackle, was seldom used in advancing the ball, as the backfield trio carried the needed punch. The Hawkeyes also excelled in aerial football, as every forward pass but one gained ground for the Iowa eleven.
The Cornishkusers made their most formidable bid for a touchdown in the opening period. Kelly, the Iowa quarterback, fumbled a punt and McMahon downed the ball on the Hawkesey' 18-yard line. Hubka, McMahon and Schenellen rammed their way to Iowa's 1-yard line, but the Hawkesyridles and took the ball on downs.
The Hawkeyes averaging at least ten pounds less' than the Huskers, played the full sixty minutes without making a substitution. The Iowa victory was the first Hawkeye triumph over the Cormuskhs since the Knipe team of 1899 was runner up in the Western conference.

Influenza Slick, Sly Hunnish Disease Says U.S. Health Service
Means of Recognizing Insidious Affliction and Combating It Are Explained
Live Much In the Open Air
Surgeon General Rupert Blue Issues Appeal to Stamp Out Disease
It is the duty of every American to know all he can about this "trifling" and very serious disease that is now epidemic throughout a greater part of the United States. It is such an insidious, such a tricky ailment that approaches under the guise of a slight cold and an ordinary "just-feeling-bad" that it should be recognized and the means of preventing it and combatting it fostered and familiarized by everyone. It should be called Hun influenza, because it is a slick, slimy, tricky and heartless aliment. Here is what the United States Public Health Service says about Spanish Influenza. It is written by Dr. Rupert Blue, surgeon general. Americanism dictates that you learn all that is to be learned from the following:
"SPANISH INFLUENZA"'="THREE
DAY FEVER"'="THE FLU."
What is Spanish Influenza? Is it something new? Does it come from Spain?
The disease now occurring in this countrycountry and called "Spanish Influenza" resembles a very contagious kind of "cold" accompanied by fever, pains in the head, eyes, ears, back or other parts of the body, and a feeling of severe sickness. In most of the cases the symptoms disappear after three or four days, the patient then rapidly recovering; some of the patients, however, develop pneumonia in the ear, or meningitis, and many of these complicated cases die. Whether this so-called "Spanish" influenza is identical with the epidemics of influenza of earlier years is not yet known.
Epidemics of influenza have visited this country since 1647. It is interesting to know that this first epidemic was brought here from Valencia, Spain. Since that time there have been numerous epidemics of the disease. In 1889 and 1890 an epidemic of influenza, starting somewhere in the Orient, spread first to Russia, and thence over practically the entire civilized world. Three years later there was another flare-up of the disease. Both times the epidemic spread widely over the United States.
Although the present epidemic is called "Spanish influenza," there is no reason to believe that it originated in Spain. Some writers who have studied the question believe that the epidemic came from the Orient and they call attention to the fact that the Germans mention the disease as occurring along the eastern front in the summer and fall of 1917.
How can "Spanish influenza" be recognized?
There is as yet no certain way in which a single case of "Spanish influenza" can be recognized; on the other hand, recognition is easy where there is a group of cases. In contrast to the outbreaks of ordinary coughs and colds, which usually occur in the cold months, epidemics of influenza may occur at any season of the year, thus the present epidemic rages most intensely in Europe in May. July in Malta and October in of ordnance, the general symptoms (fever, pain, depression) are by no means as severe or as sudden in their onset as they are in influenza. Finally, ordinary colds do not spread through the community so rapidly or so extensively as does influenza.
In most cases a person taken sick with influenza feels sick rather suddenly. He feels weak, has pains in the eyes, ears, head or back, and may be sore all over. Many patients feel dizzy, some vomit. Meat of the patients complain of nausea and fever in which the temperature rises to 100 to 104. In most cases the pulse remains relatively slow.
UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS, TUESDAY AFTERNOON, OCTOBER 8, 1918.
In appearance one is struck by the fact that the patient looks sick. His eyes and the inner side of his eyelids may be slightly "bloodshot," or "congested," as the doctors say. There may be running from the nose, or there may be some cough. These signs of a cold may not be marked.
nevertheless the patient looks and feels very sick.
In addition to the appearance an the symptoms as already describex examination of the patient's blood may aid the physician in recognizing "Spanish influenza," for it has been found that in this disease the number of white corpuscles shows little or no increase above the normal. It is possible that the laboratory investigations now being made through the National Statistical Office United State Health Laboratory will furnish a more certain way in which individual cases of this disease can be recognized.
What is the course of the disease?
Do people die of it?
Ordinarily, the fever lasts from three to four days and the patient recovers. But while the proportion of deaths in the present epidemic has generally been low, in some places the outbreak has been severe and deaths are numerous. When death occurs $p$ is usually the result of a complication.
What causes the disease and how is it spread?
Bacteriologists who have studied influenza epidemics in the past have found in many of the cases a very small rod-shaped germ called, after its discoverer, Pfeiffer's bacillus. In other cases of apparently the same kind of disease there were found pneumococci, the germs of lobar pneumococcus caused when caused by streptococci, and by other germs with long names.
No matter what particular kind of germ causes the epidemic, it is now
Capt. Scher Condemns Theatre for Refusing To Close on Request
Management of Bowersock and Varsity Censured in Talk To S.A.T.C.
Posted Guards Downtown
Lloyd Ware Says Request to Close Came Too Late— Doors Now Shut
The management of the Variety and the Bowersock theaters was censured sharply this morning by Capt. B.T. Scher, commanding the Students' Army Training Corps, in a talk to the members of the student army on McCook Field.
"The manager of the two picture show houses refused to close because he said he would lose $200 by doing so," said Captain Scher in his talk to the men. "I assured him that he probably would see a dozen funerals within the week if he insisted on keeping the theatre open." SAYS MANAGER
No Classes—S. A. T. C.
Cleans Up Barracks
HAUGH TOO SHORT, SAYS MANAGER "If anyone accuses me of profiteering," said Mr. Ware. He sr this morning, "they've got me all wrong. I am endeavoring to do everything properly." Finally the persons attending the Varsity and the Bowersock, and have now closed both theatres.
Men Drill and Work at Making Barracks Habitable Today
Cleaning up the new barracks on the golf links is today's task for S. A, T. C, men instead of attending classes on the Hill. The closing of school on account of the "fuf" epidemic has given the men an opportunity to put their new homes into a habitable condition, and they will be able to use the seascape number and other accumulated material is cleared away.
Drill was conducted on the streets this morning instead of on McCook Field as usual because of the wet ground. After a drill period so what shorter than usual, the men marched back to the field and filled the south bleachers to listen to the announcements of Lieut. F. J. Cramer.
Lieutenant Cramer read 250 additional names of men whose induction into the Student Corps had been completed. The closing of class work for S. A. T. C. men was then announced, and a clean-up of the grounds ordered.

Board of Health Closes University To Prevent Spread of Influenza
Students Must Stay Away From Theaters and Crowds—No Meetings Permitted—Military Police Stationed In Front of Picture Shows
MUST REPORT ILLNESS TO HOSPITAL AT ONCE
College Students and S. A. T. C. Members Forbidden to Leave Lawrence Until Danger of Infection Is Past— Men Put to Work on Barracks
As a precaution against the spread of influenza the State Board of Health has ordered that the University discontinue classes until Tuesday, October 15. The situation is not considered extremely critical since there are only 92 cases reported out of the 3,000 students enrolled in the University.
Students are asked to stay away from meetings and crowded theaters and to stay in the open air as much as possible. Any symptoms of illness must be reported to the University Hospital at once as a patriotic measure.
Military police were stationed in front of the picture shows last night and refused entrance to all S. A. T. C. men in uniform.
First Concert In Given
The first of a series of Sunday afternoon concerts for the S. A. T. C. men on the Hill, was given Sunday in Fraser Chapel by Dean and Mrs. Harold Butler, assisted by Miss Maude Cooke Anderson, pianist. Different programs are to be given on succeeding Sundays, it is announced.
Proclamation Closing the University
BY AUTHORITY AND DIRECTION OF THE STATE BOARD OF HEALTH there will be NO CLASSES in the University beginning at NOON today, October 8.
The University will re-open Tuesday, October 15, unless notice is given to the contrary.
The University will re-open Tuesday, October 15, unless notice is given to the contrary. Students are FORBIDDEN to leave Lawrence—to do so would help spread infection. They must remain in Lawrence.
Students must inform the University Hospital or their physician immediately if feeling ill.
Students should go to bed immediately on developing symptoms of any illness.
This is a patriotic duty. You are on your honor. Prompt compliance will, we hope, prevent any serious epidemic in Lawrence.
FRANK STRONG,
Chancellor.
Do not attend or hold any meetings or public gatherings, or parties or social functions of any kind.
(Continued on page 4)
believed that influenza is always spread from person to person, the germs being carried with the air along with the very small droplets of mucus, expelled by coughing or sneezing, forceful talking, and the like by one who already has the germs of the disease. They may also be carried about in the air in the form of dust coming from diced mucus, from coughing and sneezing, or from catching diseases, a person who has only a mild attack of the disease himself may give a very severe attack to others.
It is very important that every person who becomes sick with influenza should go home at once and go to bed. This will help keep away dangerous complications and will, at the same time, keep the patient from scattering the disease far and wide. It is therefore important to allow the patient to sleep in the same room with the patient. In fact, no one but the nurse should be allowed in the room.
If there is cough and sputum or running of the eyes and nose, care should be taken that all such discharges are collected on bits of gauze or rag or paper napkins and burned. If the patient complains of fever and headache, he should be given water to drink, a cold compress to the forehead, and a light sponge. Only such medicine should be given as it is prescribed by the doctor. It is foolish to ask the drugiest to prescribe and may be dangerous to take the so-called "safe, sure and sharpless" remedies advertised by patent-medicine manufacturers.
If the patient is so situated that he can be attended only by some one who must also look after others in the family, it is advisable that such attendant wear a wrapper, apron, or gown over the ordinary house clothes.
"The only reason for declining to close," continued Mr. Ware, "was because I did not find out about the threatened epidemic until too late. Captain Scher and W. W. Cieland, the city health officer, did not make the request until after 6:30. The advertising was all up and the force was ready to go to work. For that reason I did not think it possible to call off the show on such short notice, particularly as there was no way of getting word to the patrons of the theatres."
OVERCOATS FOR S. A. T. C. MEN
Captain Scher will issue overcaps to S. A. T. C. men this afternoon, he said. This will be a precautionary measure. Should the weather turn bad the men will be prepared to keep up drill and exercise in the open without exposure.
Mr. Ware cited the fact that the Kansas City theatres were given due warning and allowed to remain open last night, and gave assurance of his desire to co-operate with the University and the military authorities in their efforts to prevent a general epidemic.
"The closing of the University does not close the S. A. T. C.", said Captain Scher. "There will be more drill and open air exercise, now that the men are relieved of classroom work. I am going to keep them busy in healthful, out-of-work work and to keep them away from town.
Students are urgently directed not to leave Lawrence, or to hold parties or gatherings of any kind. Twenty persons constitutes a crowd or a gathering and aref orbidden to congregate in Lawrence.
"The uniforms the men now have are cotton. The wool uniforms have not arrived and the overcoats will preside feeling the absence of wool uniforms."
Henry Cherry Dies at Camp Henry Cherry, c'20 of Lebanon, who has been in naval training at Alpena, Mich., died last week of pneumonia. He was half owner of the College Inn Barber Shop and won a K last year as short stop in the Varsity baseball team. He was a member of the Phil Chi fraternity.
Medical Reserves and Engineers are Being Inducted into S.A.T.C.
After Long Controversy War Department Decides To Include Them In Corps
Induction proceedings for more than one hundred University men, members of the enlisted engineer and medical reserve, are now under way, but the final papers have not yet been received, according to an announcement made this morning by Dean G. Young. In addition to the training, There are about twenty upper-class engineers in the reserve, and ninety-eight medical students.
The majority of the naval reservoirs have already been inducted into the S. A, T. C, but their status is different from that of the medical and engineering reservoirs because they are being placed directly in the naval section of the organization.
The decision as to whether the medical and engineering reservists should be included in the S. A. T. C. was delayed by the War Department from October 1 to a few days ago. A decision was promised October 1 at the Fort Sheridan conference early in September, but unforeseen difficulties caused the postponement of the final statement.
Men enlisted in the two reserves were provisionally enrolled in the Student Corps pending the decision, but the work of their induction is proceeding now together with that of the other men, though none are as yet actually in the service because of the delay in the final papers.
Mrs. Walter Smith of Chanute returned to her home in Ottawa Sunday, after spending rush week at the Chi Omega house.
Official War Pictures Shown to Soldiers
The picture, Kidder and Ko, with Bryant Washburn as leading man, made a big hit with the soldiers Saturday night in Fraser Hall, Chapel.
Official war pictures, released by the Bureau of Public Information, will be here soon, also pictures of Douglas Fairbanks, Mary Pickford, Marguerite Clark, William Farnum and other popular players. They will be shown as soon as the ban on public meetings is removed.
New equipment has been purchased and a large per cent of the soldiers are expected to attend the pictures from now on. This is an unusual opportunity for sailors and sailors to spend time with their friends to spend their spare time and it is hoped that they will take advantage of the next number.
Clark McCulloch is Ill
Clark McUnluff is III
Clark McColloch, pre-med in the University last year, is seriously ill with pneumonia at Camp Sherman, Ohio, accustomed to a camp宿.
od Monday by his father, who lives here. McColloch enlisted last May in the sanitary corps of the medical department. He was in training at Leavenworth and later at Yale University. His father, F, B. McColloch, left Monday night for Camp Sherman.
This action was taken at a meeting in the chancellor's office of the chancellor, Dr. S. J. Crumbine, secretary of the State Board of Health and dean of the School of Medicine; Dr. A. Mark, city health commissioner; Dr. P. Martin, city health committee, Doctor Smith, Doctor Nelson, Professor Sherwood.

Democracy.
...
No student in the University may leave Lawrence, according to University authorities. Although classes have been dismissed for the time being, students may not go to their several homes, but must stay in Lawrence.
It was decided at the meeting that the immediate closing of the school was necessary as a patriotic and health-guarding measure. At a suggestion of Dean F. J. Kelly and Dean George C. Shand it was decided to suspend all school work at room. By preventing gatherings it is believed that the epidemic can be stamped out within a week.
"The period of incubation is only a few days," said one member of the health committee, "and if we keep new infection from being brought in we can have the epidemic under control within a few days, by next Tuesday, we hope. It is absolutely essential that students remain in Lawrence. If they leave Lawrence they may carry the disease to other communities. Or, they may bring infection to Lawrence from other places. Stay in Lawrence, don't gather in crowds—twenty is a crowd—and obey the University's requests."
University of Kansas Art Library is Among Best in United States
Marvin Collection, Just Purchased, Contains Many Rare Volumes
With the purchase of the Marvin collection of art books by the University of Kansas, the School of Fine Arts becomes the possessor of one of the finest art libraries among the universities of the United States. To the 15300 volumes already on the shelves have been added to the library's books given by Mrs. Thayer, and the twelve hundred of the Marvin collection.
Many rare volumes are in the collections. Of especial interest is a section devoted to early American history. One volume contains the first version of the story of George Washington and the cherry tree.
The art studio of the University of Chicago is the only one that has a library superior to that of the University of Kansas.
- The expensive books of the collection include Maka Bharata, a classic Sanscrit, an Italian book of copper plate engravings which tell the story of the Creation and is written about 1641. There is also a book from the Elzevir press at Amsterdam in 1648. The library has a volume of the Boydell Shakespeare Illustrations. Boydell labored for thirteen years on his big steel engravings and spent about 350,000 pounds.
Chinese books, published in the fourteenth and fifteenth centuries, which contain exquisite drawings on silk, add to the value of the library. In most of these books the opposite page is left vacant for poetry.
Mary Emily Warren of Emporia has withdrawn from the University because of illness.

TOO FARSIGHTED
K. U. STUDENTS have been too far sighted. They have had a hypermetropic outlook on life. Now that the University has been turned into a government school and every one is subject to government orders, our lens are being corrected and we are getting a better vision.
We have all quit making definite plans for the future for those that we have made have been frightfully disarranged and spoiled. Sometimes we wonder where we will be and what we will be doing next month, next week or even tomorrow. S. A. T. C. men don't know how long they will be permitted to stay here in school. Students plan to take courses, only to learn that they have been discontinued due to the war. Friends come to school together only to be separated after a month or two during which they see each other rarely.
Heretofore we have had the childish attitude of wanting what we want when we want it. We have ignored what we have now and our greatest pleasure has been in looking forward to our plans for the future.
Now we are forced to correct this farsighted vision, appreciate things close at hand, enjoy every minute while we have it and make the best of every opportunity. It won't hurt the best of us to develop a little patience and take things as they come.
So lets look around and enjoy the view from the hill while we are here. Lets have a good time in classes at parties and at home while we have a chance; and lets take it for granted that the government knows what it is doing and when it takes a great deal of our time, let us develop our resources and capacity for pleasure so that we can get Sixty seconds worth out of every minute that we have here.
THE PERMANENT INCOME
THE Permanent Income Amendment will be voted upon by the people of Kansas in November. That everyone may know who stands for it the State Council of Defense has issued the following statement.
WHO?
Leading business men of Kansas have been urging for years that the Schools were big business institutions and that the best business methods be adopted in support of them. They have urged the plan of a permanent and separate School fund.
Many members of the Legislature have long appreciated the inefficiency of the present plan and have submitted this amendment because it will lead to better and more economical administration of the Schools.
The presiding officers of the two houses of the Legislature say:
"From several years experience in the Legislature and especially from our experience as Presiding Officers we are convinced that the passage of the Permanent Income Amendment submitted by the last Legislature would greatly expedite the work of future Legislatures and allow them to provide for the Schools more effectively and efficiently."
W. Y. MORGAN, Lieutenant Governor.
A. M. KEENE, Speaker of the House.
The Official State war body, the State Council of Defense adopted this resolution July 11, 1918: RESOLUTION
Whereas, The Legislature of Kansas of 1917 realizing the sacredness' of the ballot, directed the submission to the voters of Kansas at the
Whereas, The Legislature of the State of Kansas of 1917 realizing the need of a more scientific manner of supporting the state schools, and that money raised for education should be held sacred for education, and that the state was being seriously hampered in the administration of her educational institutions by the lack of a permanent income, directed the submission to the voters of the State of Kansas of an amendment permitting the Legislature to establish a definite permanent income for the schools that would make possible the planning of the affairs of these schools in advance;
Therefore, Be it Resolved by the Council of Deof these amendments especially timely;
Therefore, e it Resolved by the Council of Defense that it does hereby fully endorse both of said amendments and does hereby ask the people of the State of Kansas to vote for said amendments as war measures.
the State Council of Defense has appointed a committee on educational efficiency to present the vital importance of this Amendment to the voters of the State as an emergency war measure, because efficiency in education means efficiency in army organization, greater fighting power, and better preparation for handling the after-war problems.

OUR FIGIETING HEART IN SONG
EVERYTHING Ends In Songs," said the witty Beaumarchais, and if he were living today he might note that of all things that begin with song perhaps war is the most remarkable. Every tune that comes into the head of a composer comes with a march rhythm and is inspired by war-time thoughts—either bellicose or sentimental. Many of the songs may seem to the fastidious "vulgar and cheap," the New York Evening Post tells us, and no doubt they often are, yet the cheapest song may seem transfigured for singers to whose deepest sentiment it makes appeal, and to some songs of shoddy expression we do injustice unless we admit a truth of feeling. The roughness of the lines which proclaim
Belgium, we can hear you calling;
Belgium, your tears are falling.
Belgium, give me your tears!
Belgium, dry your tears!
does not prevent them from attaining dignity as the expression of what the whole nation has always recognized as one of the great provocations of the war, says The Post, which adds that "we can afford to have the people singing many shabby, faulty songs, along with better ones, but we could never afford to have them singing none at all." We read then:
'Yet we must not sneer at what the songwriters produce simply because they do it crudely; what catches the popular fancy may do it for superficial reasons, but the reasons are worth analysis. Any one who wishes to gage the sentiment of the day may learn as much of one aspect by looking over a popular music-counter as of another by reading The Congressional Record. These are the songs that decorate training-camp pianos and the pianos of sisters of the recruits. It may seem painful that while Mrs. Heman's "Piligirms" made the coast resound with hymns, the shipwrecked destroyer-crew instinctively broke into 'O boys! O boys! Where we go from here?' Yet there is no little feeling for current history in 'O boys', which celebrates the recruit who, when his squad was marched one hundred miles and his companions were tired, simply asked where they went next. There are other songs of indomitable recruits, from 'Every One Was Out of Step but Jim' to 'Uncle Sam Is Calling Me' and 'I'm Going to Follow the Boys'. Those who wish to know how out soldiers feel may gather it in part from such ditties as 'We're All Going Calling on the Kaiser,' 'Hunting the Hun,' and 'Keep Your Head Down, Fritzie Boy.' After recent events we may be sure that many pianos and phonographs are giving with renewed spirit the song, 'Bing, Bang, Bing 'Em on the Rhine,' with its subtitle, 'This sounds ever so much sweeter on a forty-centimeter,' and its chorus, 'When we go swimming in the Rhine, we'll hang our clothes on Hindenburg's old line.' The high spirit if these songs is a good quality. So is the determination in them, typically express in 'Our Country's In Now, We Must Win It Now,' and 'We've Bound to Win with Boys Like You.'
"When the novelist Winston Churchill cast about to recall what had most thrilled him here he decided it was the Hippodrome crowd singing Cohan's classic lines, 'Send the word over there; we'll be over, we're coming over, and we won't come back till it's over, over." Even the Germans marched through Brussels whistling 'Every Little Movement.' The dignified and excellent war-songs that have been written have had comparatively little popularity. Sousa writes a good march dedicated to the shiphulldogs, and we hum ragtime; good poetry goes unaccompanied, while we sing dogged by Harry Lauder.

"I hear you have a little sister at your house," said the cropper.

"Do you like that?" was queried.
"I wish it was a boy," said Johnny, "so I could play marbles with him, and baseball."
"Well," said the storekeeper, "why don't you exchange your little sister for a boy?"
Johnny reflected for a minute, then he said, rather sorrowfully:
"We can't now; it's too late. We've used her four weeks." - Philadelphia Ledger.

What Do You Mean "Afford"？
★★
★★
By George Ade
☆ ☆ ☆
☆ ☆
We come to another big task. This time we need not call for helpers. The volunteer workers stream in myriad hosts along the main highway leading to victory and vindication.
All patriots, by confession.
The grumblers are awed into silence. If the taint of disloyalty remains anywhere it is hidden as a shameful secret. The heads are wagging and we hear many bold assurances:
"I'll do all I can."
"I'll go as far as the next fellow."
"I'll take all I can afford to take."
We are speaking, of course, of the Fourth Liberty Loan and the willingness of the war-backers to subscribe.
This time we do not explain a Liberty Loan and how it works, or why we battle with Germany or that a war costs money. It will just about require a search-warrant to find a man who does not say that he will take all of the bonds he can "afford" to take.
But, O my countrymen, we need night schools and correspondence schools, private tutors and Chautauquas and special informationbureaus to enlighten Mr. A. and Mr.B. and Mr.C.as to the real meaning of the word "afford."
Are you penciling around to find out how much money you can set aside without the slightest inconvenience to any of your pet private projects?
Are you trying to decide how many bonds you will have to take in order to escape the charge of being a slacker?
Are you getting ready to answer in hundreds a country that has endowed you with thousands?
As you squint your eyes and try to decide upon the sum which will fairly represent your individual quota, are you acting as attorney for the United States of America or have you gone in for technicalities in order to protect special interests?
In reasoning with your conscience, are you trying to be generous or trying to play safe?
It is up to you.
The buck cannot be passed.
It is for each man to decide whether he is going to be a thoroughbred or a squeezer of 50-cent pieces.
For the sake of your own self-respect, come through to the limit. If you live to be a thousand years old you never will have another chance to start your iron dollars upon such a noble mission.
Do you wish to deepen the wrinkles upon the brows in Potsdam? Would you fortify the courage of every soldier in France?
Shall we set in such a stack that the Kaiser can't see over the top of it? All right! You are appointed a Special Agent.
Don't wait for a committee to hunt you up or run you down.
Hurry to the bank and break through the line and order so many Liberty Bonds that the man inside will be dazed and all of the neighbors surprised and all of your relatives proud.

More Football Men Out Since Officers Seek New Materia
Forty Checked Out Suits Last Night On McCook Field
Company Squads Out Soon
Between thirty-five and forty football men new to the Varsity were out for practice last night on McCook Field, as the result of announcements to S. A. T. C. members that men taking part in athletics would receive special consideration when the recom-mendation to officers' training camps were made.
More men signified their intention of beginning practice this morning when a second call for football material was issued. The officers in charge of the drill work are placing special stress on the importance of taking part in football work-outs. Complete records are being kept of the number of men from each company who go out for football.
New Material Shows Up Well
And Will Be Eligible
For Varsity
Funds are being raised in a number of companies for the purchase of football equipment, but thus far no other steps have been taken in the organizing of company teams. It is certain, however, that these teams will be organized later in the year and will play out a schedule of games.
Three squads of Varsity men were out Monday night, about double the number who have come out before. Four squads of freshmen were in the field, and the first freshman team scrimmaged for a short time with the second string Varsity men. There was little scrimmage last night, the squads merely kicking the ball about and practicing formations.
The new material out for practice last night showed up well, many of the men being of good build and weight. The majority of these men would never have come out for football had not the officers of the Student Corps recommended the work. About half the men are upperclassmen and will be eligible for the Varsity
School of Engineering Has Larger Enrollment Than Ever Before 1010
800 Freshman Engineers Compose 35 Sections In Mathematics
A total of,1,010 men have enrolled in the School of Engineering, according to figures given out this morning by Dean G. C. Shaad. Eighty of these men have withdrawn or transferred to other schools, but the 930 students remaining breaks all at-attendance records.
About 800 of the men in the engineering school are freshmen, few upperclassmen having returned to school. There are 35 sections in mathematics, one of the most popular courses in the school.
No difficulty is being experienced with regard to teachers or class rooms, in spite of the unusually large enrollment. Most of the engineers are taking English and other courses in English, and this helps relieve the situation.
"If the majority of the men remain in school next quarter, as I believe they will," said Dean Shaad this morning, "it will become necessary to provide new facilities for handling them." Unusually large classes are avoided by having a large number of sections, which is possible as most of the men are taking elementary work. When they begin to specialize, we will meet with some difficulty."
Dean Shad stated that the authorities of the Engineering School expected to work out plans during the next ten weeks for handling the men during the next quarter. Assistance from the College faculty will have much to do with solving the problem.
Football will be played at the University of Michigan this year, but only on a strict war basis. From the appearance of the candidates, Michigan will have a young, light, but fast team. They are training the men more for the idea of making better soldier material than of winning games.

A. B. Means 180 Hours
With Four Term Year
In former years it has been necessary for a student in the University of Kansas to have 120 credit hours before he should be graduated. Now that the year has been divided into quarter terms 180 credits are required for graduation since each credit under the new system is worth only two-thirds as much as it used to be.
Influenza, Slick, Sly Hunnish Disease
(Continued from page 1)
while in the sick-room, and slip this off when leaving to look after the others.
Nurses and attendants will do well to guard against breathing in dangerous disease permits by wearing a cap, bracelet or muzzle or mask while near the patient.
Will a person who has had influenza before catch the disease again?
It is well known that an attack of measles or scarlet fever or smallpox usually protects a person against another attack of the same disease. This appears not to be true of "Spanish influenza." According to newspaper reports the King of Spain suffered an attack of influenza during the epidemic years ago, and was again stricken during the recent outbreak in Spain.
How can one guard against influenza?
In guarding against disease of all kinds, it is important that the body be kept strong and able to fight off disease genius. This can be done by having a proper proportion of work, play, and rest, by keeping the body well clothed, and by eating sufficient, wholesome, and properly selected food. In connection with diet, it is well to remember that milk is one of the best all-around foods, obtainable for adults as well as children. So far as a disease like influenza is concerned health authorities everywhere recognize the very close relation between its spread and overcrowded homes. While it is not always possible, especially in times like the present, to avoid such overcrowding, people should consider the health danger and make every effort to reduce the home overcrowding to a minimum. The value of fresh air through open windows cannot be over-emphasized.
Where crowding is unavoidable, as in street cars, care should be taken to keep the face so turned as not to injure a passenger or air breathed out by another person.
It is especially important to beware of the person who coughs or sneezes without covering his mouth and nose. It also follows that one should keep out of crowds and stuffy places as much as possible; keep homes, offices, and warships well aired, spend some time at work and do not work if at all practicable—in short make every possible effort to breathe as much pure air as possible.
"Cover up each cough and sneeze.
If you don't you'll spread disease."
K. U. Has Not Bought Its Quota Of Bonds
Professor Mitchell urged, when speaking of the matter, that all those who intend to purchase bonds increase their subscriptions in order that K. U. may not fall short of its required amount. The student body will be made but bonds may be purchased at the business office in Fraser.
The success of the University's effort to double its quota in the Liberty Loan drive was doubtful this morning according to Prof. U. G. Mitchell, chairman of the Liberty Loan campaign. The fact that a few of the larger buildings have failed so far has their quota makes the outlook gloomy.
The students of the Ohio State University have organized a Fourth Liberty Loan Corps. The various squads will carry on the campaign in such a manner that every student and employee on the campus will be reached in some way.

Precautions Are Taken By University to Stop Spread of Influenza
S. A. T. C. Classes Excused and Student Meetings Barred For Present
Situation Is Well In Hand
Ninety-Two Cases Cared for in Infirmary on Second Floor of Barracks No. 1
On account of the rapid spread of the Spanish influenza among the men of the Student Army Training Carpa all University class work for men was discontinued this morning until conditions are improved. Ninety-two cases of the influenza were in the infirmary of the S. A. T. C, this morning and according to Lieut. Judson Allen, M. D., new ones were arriving.
The second floor of the north barracks was fitted up yesterday afternoon as an infirmary for the men. The ones who had been in the hospital until the number became so great that it was impossible to care for them there, were moved to the barracks.
NO CAUSE FOR ALARM "We have the epidemic well in hand," said Captain Bruno Scher, this morning. "None of the men is in a dangerous condition and we hope to be able to control the influenza in the University. In order to do this, however, it will be necessary to put the ban on all sorts of congregations. During the epidemic here, no man in the Student Army Training Corps will be allowed to attend any church, theatre, or any kind of a public gathering."
The medical detachment will be increased today by Captain Scher and Doctor Allen. Twenty pre-medics devoted to the infrinary today and tonight.
NO CAUSE FOR ALARM
In compliance with the orders issued this morning by Captain Scher Chancellor Frank Strong has asked that all University gatherings which were scheduled for this week will be called off on account of the influenza
RUSH WORK ON BARRARES
The work on the barrares is being rushed to try to get the men who are staying at the different rooming houses over Lawrence to be moved into the barrares by tomorrow night in order that the men be better cared for so they can be now ready for occupancy and by banging tarpaulin over the windows of the others they can be used.
Men who are staying in fraternity houses will be allowed to remain in
the houses until there are enough barracks to accommodate the entire S. A. T. C. .

Chamber of Commerce Standardizes Products And Eliminates Waste
J. N. Van der Vries, Former Math Prof Here, Is District Secretary
UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS, WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON, OCTOBER 9. 1918
Keeps Manufacturing Stable
No Plants Are Being Closed or Built Up Exten-
Standardization of products and the elimination of waste in manufacturing plants are the work of the Chamber of Commerce of the United States, according to J. N. Van der Vries, central district secretary of the organization. Mr. Van der Vries was formerly professor of mathematics in the University and has been a member of Christmas. He is here for a few days' visit on his first vacation since going to work for the government.
Mr. Van der Vries has his office in Chicago, but makes trips constantly to all parts of his district which comprises all the territory between the Alleghenies and the Rocky Mountains. The installing of uniform systems of accounting in manufacturing plants is one of the principal parts of Mr. Van der Vrie's work.
HELP MANUFACTURER AND CONSUMER "As an instance of one reform we have accomplished," said Mr. Van der Vries. "I may cite the new method of letting contracts. Last winter competitive bidding and the cost plus system were in use. These two methods tend to cause waste in production, as the profit was the same no matter what the cost of production. By auditing the books and finding out just what it costs each manager to make his product, the government is now enabled to obtain products at the lowest possible price without depriving any manufacturer of his profit."
EFFECTING STANDARDIZATION
Preserving the stability of all man-
ufacturing interest through the war
crisis is one of the aims of the Cham-
ber of Commerce. No plants are being
closed down and none are being
built up to a state of inflation. Labs-
orers in factories where no feed or
be not essential, but being transferred
to plants, but no confiscations,
either of men or materials, are being
made.
Call for Clerks And
Typists In S. A. T. C
"In order to accomplish this standardization, a complete census of each industry is being taken," Mr. Van der Vries continued. "We have now the complete facts with regard to 350 different industries, and have still to organize 150 more."
"There were 132 different shades of paint on the market at the beginning of the war," said Mr. Van der Vries in explaining what has been accomplished by standardization. "Now there are less than thirty. This means that owners of paint stores have cut down their stocks by 75 per cent.
Quartermasters' Corps and Ad jutants' Office Assistants Will Be Trained Here
The training of men at the University for the quartermasters' corps and as clarks in adjutants' offices was commenced this morning when Lieutenant R. E. Carter, Capt. Scher's attendant, issued a call for men to begin work as office assistants. More than fifty men responded to the call.
Training in office work will be useful to men who expect to become line officers, according to Lieutenant Carter, and other soldier students who desire to fit themselves for clerks or adjutants will find the training of great value. Men from here showing good ability will be sent to training camps to try for commissions.
A permanent office staff to look after the records of the S. A. T. C. will be selected from the men who began work today in Lieutenant Carter's office. Who have volunteered for the work as typists or bookkeepers are being exempt from fatigue duty in the form of cleaning up the grounds, but their hours of work will be longer.
Try-outs for the University Orchestra will be hold Wednesday from 5 to 6 o'clock and Thursday from 4 to 6 o'clock in Fraser Hall, Room 401. Prof. F. E. Kendric, Director.
S. A. T. C. Men Raise Fund for Sick Comrades
A hatful of money, literally, was collected this morning at drill to provide a fund with which to purchase fruit, postage stamps, and other "extras" for the members of the S. A. T. C., who are in Barracks No. 1, either ill with influenza or suspected of having the disease.
"We can get a thousand dollars any time we need it," said Lieutenant Cramer this morning. "All we asked this morning was a few cents from each man, and we raised more than $125. If necessary we will take another collection. The boys are going to have all they need."

Only 11,750 cases of influenza were reported to the office of the surgeon general in the twenty-four hours ending at noon yesterday. This is a sharp decrease over the daily average of last week. Reports show that the epidemic is spreading through the civil population despite the decrease in army camps.

Movement of the S. A. T. C. men to the barkracks will add to the already large list of places one for women who wish to work a few hours a day. An employment bureau for University women is maintained by the Y. W. C. A., with the secretary, Miss Katherine Duffield in charge. Waiting on table, light housework, and caring for small children are among the particular lines of work open. Miss Duffield's office hours are from 8 until 12 noon, and from 2 until 4.

Students Must Prevent Spread of Influenza Chancellor Announces
Order Keeping Them in Law rence to Prevent Strict Quarantine Regulations
Such women deserve the condemnation of the University. Any measures of quarantine that are available should be used against them and their dangerous practices.
While Lawrence has not been placed under strict quarantine by the State Board of Health, the Chancellor has issued an order that all students stay in Lawrence. A student who goes home now to a community where he knows there are cases of influenza is almost sure to bring it back to Lawrence with him and make the order closing the University worthless.
Influenza is worse in the western part of the state and in Kansas City than in Lawrence. The closing of the University has been a preventive measure, to ward off the spread of the disease, rather than wait and be obliged to establish quarantine because the situation could be handled in no other way. In this regard the Chief University authorities are doing all they can to check the epidemic, he said, but the students must aid in the work.

Everyone is asked to bring her own lunch. All women who wish to attend these hikes will meet in Myer's Hall at the hour given in the schedule. The women will be divided into groups of less than two teachers and some of the learners are planning hikes to Cameron's; others will go only a short distance.

Vocational Detachment Moves Out October 16; Third Unit is Comin
Four Hundred Men to Be Sent Here By Kansas Draft
rour hundred men will be sent to Lawrence October 16 by the various draft boards over the state to make up the vocational corps, section B, of the S. A. T. C., according to an order received here this morning from the office of Charles R. Huffman, adjutant-general, at Topeka. These men will be given practically the same courses which have been given the men in the vocational corps this summer. Besides the 400 men who will arrive, October 16, between twenty and thirty men in the present vocational corps will be retained as noncons for the new detachment.
The government contract provides that the new men will be trained here for a period of two months, at the end of which time they will be classed as experts, middlemen, and apprentices. They will be divided as follows for training: 100 auto-drivers and repair men; twenty-five auto mechanics; twenty blacksmiths; fifteen concrete foremen; thirty machinists; five fire brigades; six radio operators; twenty-five surveyors; forty telegraphers; forty general draftsmen; and fifteen topographical draftsmen.
The men will be part of the S. A.
T. C. under the command of Captain
Bruno T. Scher, since the vocational
department became a section of the
students' army training corps when
that organization was established at
the University.
Fifteen men in the present vocational corps have already been sent to other camps to report for duty, and the work of getting the men out will continue during this week, so everything will be ready to receive the new detachment October 16. The new men will be housed in Robinson Gymnasmium for a time, at least, but may later be assigned to arracks 1 and 2. They will be measured for uniforms immediately upon arrival.
Miss Corbin Discusses Co-operative House Plan
At a meeting of the University Women's Association held Monday afternoon at the home of Mrs. Frank Strong, Miss Alberta Corbin, acting adviser of women, informally discussed the question of establishing co-operative houses for non-fraternity women and a hall for women at the University. Miss Corbin says that the Women's State Council with headquarters at Topeka, and the W. S. G. of A. K. U., are both promoting this plan. She also urged that the idea of all rooming-houses for women electing a house president be carried out.
It was voted that members of the University Women's Association meet at the Paris House of the Congregational Church the first and third Thursdays of each month from 2:30 to 5 o'clock to do Red Cross work.
Emporia Game Not Off

Doubling our quota today? Your bet!
The game scheduled to be played with Emporia on McCook field next Saturday will not be called off unless something unforeseen occurs, according to Mgr. W. O. Hamilton. He has conferred with Lieutenant Cramer, who sees no reason for calling off such a meeting in the open air.
Enforced Vacation Cuts Bond Sales on the Hill
The Fourth Liberty Loan drive on the Hill is being seriously hampered by the closing of the University, Prof. U. G. Mitchell, in charge of the drive, said this morning.
"I feel very confident that the University will go over the top gloriously, but I fear we will not double our quota of twenty-five thousand as I had planned we would do. The University has oversubscribed and is doing it again, but people are hard to find because they have gone down off the Hill."
Professor Mitchell is spending to day checking up on his sales.
Plain Tales From the Hill
What's Being Done
The W, S. G. A. met last night, but had mightly little to do, in the way of "calling" the dear girls for breaking the date rule. Heaven knows lots of staid K. U. women would like to break it, but how is it to be done? please? The girl who submitted the date rule, the girls have substituted the following indoor and outdoor sports:
Using Lux and doing the family washing.
Writing all possible letters.
Sitting on the grass to keep from getting the "flu," and.
Sleeping long and late.
Knitting all the yarn in the house.
Eating more than ever, since the ones who have gone home have to pay their board just the same.
Going on Y. W. hikes, because they are a form of diversion, however mild.
Going down town to buy new curtain rods and a new waste basket.
Making things for the hope chests.
Washing their hair.
Gargling and saying they feel queer.
Feeling they have no friends, and Weeping softly.
This week would be a great time for fraternity calls. The men could meet all the keen girls—the ones who haven't the price to get home.
It's a great life!
An urgent call has gone out for "all persons in Lawrence who can" to contribute palamas for the S. A. T. C. men in the infirmary. The call had better not be made too urgent, or a lot of soldiers will be wearing Billie Burkes, besides being ill. This would be too much for any one.
One nice thing about this vacation is that we are having lovely weather.
The film was "The Hun Within," but because of the officious police, the Hun stayed within and they stayed without. So most of them went home and had porch-swing dates.

"Water, water," he babbled as he stumbled along the lonely road. All day he had toiled on and on, always searching for the liquid solace that danced before him, eternally out of reach.
Deserted by his comrades, many of whom had doubtless perished by the wayside in a similar quest, he pushed feebly forward. At length he reached a modest brick building and ascended the steps.
In the hallway stood a primitive ice-water tank. With a feeble moan, he lurched forward and emptied glass after glass of the cooling, thirst-quenching fluid. Satisfied at length, he kicked his lips and gazed about him.
"Why in blazes don't they issue canteens if they expect us to work up there on that hill all day?" he said.
The old girls who know no men in school this year have been consoling themselves with Wallace Reid. And now, what have they done but closed the picture shows? They can stay on the Hill with some inconveniences, but the end has nearly been reached
S. A. T. C. men will feel badly about not being allowed to go to their classes, but of course there is the consolation that they will not have to keep their Friday and Saturday night dates.
S. A. T. C. Authorities Report 130 Influenza Cases at Infirmary
Probably Will Increase Medical Force at Univer-
Ten Cases at K. U. Hospital
Many Students Report Colds and Sneeze—Doctor Sent To Rooming Houses
There are now 130 cases of the influenza in the infirmary of the S. A. T. C, according to an announcement made this morning by Lieut. Judson Allen, M. D., who is taking care of the men. "The men are improving rapidly," said Dr. Allen this morning. "Some of them were well enough to be moved to first floor. The sickest patients are put on second floor of the north barracks. As they get better and begin to talk and have a good time they are moved on first floor so they won't disturb the other men."
There are only about seven dangerous cases in the entire infirmary, and these are well under control now. New cases are being reported all the time and they are moved to the S. A. T. C. infirmary, but all the cases seem to be very light.
NEED MORE DOCTORS
On account of the scarcity of doctors at the University most of the care of the men has fallen to Doctor Allen. Dr. H. T. Jones, one of the local physicians, has given part of his time in assisting Doctor Allen, but this amounts to only a few hours a day. The advanced medical students at the University have been detailed to help with the sick at night.
At a conference this morning, Chancellor Strong, Captain Bruno T. Scher and Doctor Allen decided to increase the medical staff of the S. A. T. C. It is thought the medical men will be sent from Kansas City or some near army camp.
TEN WOMEN AT HOSPITAL
Ten cases of the gripe have been reported among the women and are being taken care of at the University Hospital. None of the women are dangerously ill, however, and physicians have not yet decided whether it is Spanish influenza or just ordinary influenza that has been related as much as possible and every precaution is being taken to prevent the spread of the epidemic.
Many students with colds have been sent to the hospital and have been given instructions about taking care of themselves. Doctors are calling on any students in rooming houses at the hospital or nursing home, hospital, and students are urged to report for examination at the first sneeze.
Quarantine Does Not Stop Inoculations
Inoculation for typhoid is being given to all women of the University and men who are not members of the S. A. T. C. at the University Hospital today and tomorrow. Men will be inoculated tomorrow from 9 to 12 in the morning and from 2 to 5 in the afternoon. All the women are being inoculated on this day. The University is closed this week will not interfere with the work at the University Hospital, which will be carried on just as usual.
Meetings Are Postponed
As a precaution against spreading possible cases of Spanish influenza, meetings which were to have been held this week, are postponed indefinitely. No committee meetings are to be held, and this afternoon Y. W. C. A. meeting has been postponed. The Association Tea which was to be given Friday evening and the Freshman Frolic for Saturday night will not be held. The try-out for the Women's Glee Club is postponed.
The University Library will be open this week for the delivery of books to students so they may study in their own homes. Students are cautioned not to study in the library, nor may there after drawing necessary books.
FRANK STRONG,
Chancellor.

STAY PUT
THE State Board of Health has urgently requested that all students stay in Lawrence during the quarantine period. Influenza has broken out all over Kansas. There is danger of students carrying it from Lawrence to their homes and from their home towns to the University.
Many students plan to "beat it" right away. It isn't exactly pleasant, of course, to seal yourself hermetically and stay in Lawrence when there isn't even a movie open. But how pleasant would it be to go back to your home town where there is even less of interest than there is here, and still run the risk of getting influenza, and exposing a large number of persons to the disease if you have already contracted it here before leaving for home?
Many persons have commented on the military discipline on the Hill this year, and have been more than pleased to discover that things start on time, and are carried on with neatness and dispatch. This request that all students stay in Lawrence to prevent the spread of influenza is only another part of the military discipline, to be complied with as readily and willingly as have the other requests.
It is your patriotic duty to stay here. By so doing, you will safeguard your own health, the health of members of your family and people in your home towns, will save carfare, and will have time to rest and get straightened out fully for the strenuous school year which will follow. Although there aren't many inducements but your own sense of honor, stay in Lawrence, and lead the simple life!

The only offer for peace the Allies will listen to from Germany will consist of three letters and an apostrophe.
A MISLEADING WORD
IT would serve the cause of clear thinking if the word "war" could be intermed. There are still a few people whose thought stops with "isn't war dreafull! I don't see how you can defend it!" There are others who complacently reiterate that "War is the parent of all high and heroic qualities" and so forth.
But in reality there is no such thing as this abstract "war" and so it can be neither bad nor good. What we mean by the word is one of three things; aggression, which is a crime; resistance to aggression, which is a duty; or a quarrel in which aggression is found on both sides, which is a misfortune. The war which Germany is waging belongs in the first class. Our war against Germany belongs in the second. Other wars, including possibly the war of 1870 and the fratricidal second Balkan War, in the third.
Suppose we used the term "crime" as we do the word "war" to cover nike the act of a burglar and the self-defense of society by means of the police and the courts. Then we would hear fuzzy-minded folk crying out "Crime is too dreadful! Let's abolish the police," "or, thinking only of the devotion of the guardians of the law, "Crime is the mother of all high and heroic qualities." If this world of ours is ever going to be saved it can only be thru applying to international affairs at least as much common sense as the very moderate amount which we now apply to civil life-

THE AMERICAN SOLDIER IN FRANCE
A NEW song of Roland will be written one day and it will tell of a more heroic resistance unto death than we read of in the older tale. It will be the story of what the men of Belgium did in 1914. There will be in the books of tomorrow a greater chronicle of France than that which records for us the saving of civilization at Chalons-sur-Marne in 451. It will tell how in 1914 the Hur again was held and turned back at the Marne. And if some day a new liad shall be composed it will recite the deeds of a mightier overseas expedition than that of the men who followed Achilles across the blue *E*gean waters. It will tell abode deeds of men of Britain and of Canada of Australia and of America whose ships once more have borne to foreign parts a matchless military strength derided by a fatuous foe.
In all the long centuries of human adventure there is no figure comparable to the American soldier in France. There is no other so romantic not even the Crusader. The American soldier in France is not like the man of the Northern armies in 1861 fighting to preserve his own nation from immediate disruption. He is not like the poli resisting the invader of his own fireside; nor like the Briton throwing himself into a life and death struggle for the preservation of an empire in immediate peril. He does indeed know that his home and his country were threatened but that is not the compelling reason for his effort and his sacrifice. He has surrendered every cherished thing and is offering his life because he saw women and children being murdered and their fathers and husbands and sons nearly spent; and because he saw every fair fruit of civilization being wantonly destroyed and liberty once more in danger of extinction. The American soldier is fighting on the battle lines of France simply and solely because he is a civilized man.
And a braver a cleaner a more high minded civilized man there never has been. He has long interested and a good deal puzzled the men of other lands. They have thought him boastful. They have found him instead singularly modest, glad and quick to learn, and ready to play his part in obedient subordination to others, if that be the way to military success. They have thought him irresponsible and trifling, caring only to "match with Destiny for beers," and they have found him, instead, turning a calm, untroubled face Home to the instant need of things and ready at their call "To shake the iron hand of Fate."
This is not the time to talk of the American soldier's military competency and achievement. It is enough for the present to say that he has met and more than met every demand and opportunity so far. There is bigger work yet to do. He will not fail.-The Independent.

LENINE AND TROTZKY
The holiest name of all is liberty,
and the highest duty of mankind is disgrace,
Lest a whole people to their sacrifice,
receive an impoundment or arrest!
We peace the mask you wore for Perdure!
Dewit the captain of your enterprise!
Decret was captain of your enterprise!
You showed a path with flowers strenued and lined. To calm suspicion led, yourselves, the way; to calm anxiety led, yourselves, the way; Now, driven hard, they see themselves as prey. But you-you slide out thru your master's gate. But you-you slip out thru your master's gate.
THE DEAD TO THE LIVING
In The Independent
O you that still have rain and sun,
Kisses of children and of wife,
And the good earth to tread upon,
the rich earth to tread upon life,
Forget us not, who gave all these
For something dearer, and for you!
Remember, he who fails the challenge
Remember, he who fails the challenge
Now, in the hour that shows the strong —
Draught straight against embroiled Wrong;
Faith knows but one, the hardest, way.
Give, give; and dare, and again dare!
On, to that Wrong's great overthrow
Of your son, of you, the pain an
Vie share.
Victory indeed
—Lawrence Binyon.

Here is what Admiral Eberle says to the gentlemen whose progress toward submarines, destroyers, battleships and glory he is guiding:
EAR Admiral Edward W. Eberle, the superintendent of the Naval Academy, has not allowed the natural disappointment he has experienced because he cannot have sea duty to spoil his disposition or relax his efforts in his present supremely important post. He wants to get into the fight, but if he must remain for a time on the job of making fighters out of the students at the academy he is going to make them the best of fighters. Nor does he confine himself to the technicalities of his profession, and the ten paragraphs of advice he has issued to the corps for the general guidance of its members are so sensible and so simply expressed that they deserve a larger class of readers than that for which they were originally intended.
'Do your day's work every day.
"Strive for 100 per cent efficiency in everything you undertake.
"Obey orders and regulations cheerfully, honestly, conscientiously."
*Do your full duty on time all the time*
*Practise self-control and self-denial.*
"Be considerate of others; be helpful and cheer ful and courteous; be a gentleman under all circumstances and maintain a fine sense of personal honor.
"Don't be a 'growler or a 'sea lawyer' or a 'drifter' or a 'dud.'
*Always steer a straight course, and always answer with a cheerful 'Aye, aye, sir!'*
"Be a man and never say die."—The New York Sun.
HOW IT WAS BETTER
Lovemall had been playing for high stakes and had lost. After spending all he had on Miss Brass she had refused him.
"Turned you down, did you say?" asked a friend. "Well, old chap, it's better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all."
"Yes, better, indeed," replied the rejected one. "Better for the post-office authorities the florist, the messenger-boy, the confectioner, a dozen waiters, twice as many taxi-drivers, the jeweler, and half the theaters in town."—Stray Stories.
THOSE FEATHERS
When certain soldiers from the antipodes were in New York a little while ago, a woman was heard to say to another:
"You can tell by the Kangaroo feathers in his hat."-Boston Transcript.
"There goes one of them Australians."
"How do you know?"
HAS THE HABIT
The Germans now complain that General Foch not only took over the French and British armies, but in his absent-minded way has recently started taking over a good part of the German army—Punch.
REPORTED FROM DEFIANCE, OHIO
"Going to France?" asked a traveling man at the station of a negro soldier.
"No, sah! 'ne not going to France," replied the dunsy soldier. "I'e oin to Berlin but I may stop in France for $\sigma$ show time on de way."—The New York Telegram.

Dollars that Fight
By SENATOR HENRY CABOT LODGE
The war will be won by men and ships, by guns and airplanes. To raise armies and supply them to build the navy and support it,and to furnish ships and transport, we must have money in large amounts. The expenditures of the Government for the ensuing year are estimated at $24,000,000,000,a sum which baffles the imagination to conceive. That vast amount
must come one-third from taxes and two-thirds from loans. The success of the Fourth Loan, like those that preceded it is, therefore, absolutely necessary. We must work with the highest speed, as if the war was to end in six months. We must prepare in every direction, as if it was to last for years. Speed and preparation are both expensive.
Without the Loans We Cannot Have Either
We are fighting to secure a just, righteous and lasting peace. For a complete peace we must have a complete victory. It must not be a peace of bargain or negotiation. No peace which satisfies Germany can ever satisfy us. No peace that leaves Germany in a position to renew the war against us will be worth having. It will be far from sufficient to gain all our objects on the Western front—Belgium, Alsace-Lorraine, Italia Irredenta. The President with wisdom and foresight and great force expressed his determination to redeem Russia. Russia
must not be left in Germany's hands. That would mean another war. Poland must be free. Slav republics must be established to bar the way between Germany and the East. Serbia and Roumania must be redeemed. All these things are essential. Nothing will bring them but complete victory and a peace dictated by us and our allies. It is a conflict of ideas. It is the principle of evil arrayed against the principle of good. It is the battle of freedom and civilization against barbarism and tyranny. We must win and we shall win.
We Cannot Win Without Money, and, Therefore, These Loans Vital, and the Country Should Rally in All Its Strength and Subscribe and Oversubscribe the Fourth Loan
Buy Bonds to Your Utmost!

Pajamas Are Needed For Many Men Sick In S. A.T.C Infirmary
University Woman's Association Issues Appeal for Gifts In Emergency
A call has been sent out to all the people in Lawrence to contribute pajamas and night-shirts to supply the demand for such garments at the S. A. T. C. Hospital. This call is more than urgent. Many men have been kept at the hospital with no opportunity to get their own clothes from their rooms. Many men enlisted in the S. A. T. C, expecting to get their government benefits, and brought no extra clothing to Lawrence. Certainly none of the men now in the north barrocks had planned on being ill. Hence the call for pajamas.
The Lawrence Red Cross cannot supply this call, because they are just now filling a large order of pajamas for the hospitals at Camp Funston, to meet the unusual demand caused by the influenza epidemic there. So the University Women's Association, composed of women faculty members and the wives of faculty members, has hoped to supply the demand today among Members of this association are calling up practically all their acquaintances in Lawrence this morning, and urging them to contribute garments.
All persons who can give garments are asked to send them to Mrs. Frank Strong or Mrs. Bernett Allen this afternoon and tomorrow. These women will turn them over to the hospital authorities as soon as they come in.
Varsity and Freshmen Work-out in Scrimmage
UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN
Broken field running by "Stem" Foster and John Bunn were the features of last nights Varsity workout and scrimmage with the freshmen Both Foster and Bunn made consistent gains for the regulars, advancing the ball thirty and thirty-five yards at a clin.
Punters Show Up Well—Broken Field Running a Feature
Some good kicking was also seen last night on the field, and from all indications, the Varsity's punters will not be one of the team's weak points this season. Coach Bond's men are settling down to hard work before taking on the Emporia Normals Saturday, and the toe artists will be on the job when the encounter with the Teachers comes.
About sixty-five men were out last night for the freshman and Varsity squads. S. A, T. C, men on fatigue duty who have been out for football, basketball or baseball afternoon to take part in the scrimmage which lasted until 6 o'clock.
So great is the rush to check out uniforms that the athletic management has run out of jersies and no uniforms were checked out last night except to men who could furnish the missing article for themselves. An additional supply is expected to arrive soon.
Marvin Sherman, Arthur Herrick and Jay Bartholomew, all enlisted men of the S. A. T. C., enjoyed a short furlough in Kansas City on Saturday and Sunday.
