Mount Oread Observes Legal Holiday by Close Application to Studies

Not a Single Petition Presented To Chancellor to Ask for Day Off
Few Students Cut Classes
Date Rule Lid Stays on Tight
—All-University Dance
Is Omitted
Even though January 1, commonly known as New Year's day, is a legal holiday in all the states, the District of Columbia, Porto Nico, Hawaii, and India, and even through every store, bank, postoffice, and blacksmith shop is closed for at least part of the day, the University of Kansas has gone to school just the same—for the first time in the history of the institution
Students, however, raised no objection to school on a holiday—probably for the first time in the history of the institution also. The consensus of student opinion seemed to be that enough vacations have been enjoyed during the school year and that setting down - to regular work is the best means of celebrating which could be offered them. No politics for a holiday were offered to the Chancellor and no member of schools proceeded to take one, an has been done in certain incidents within the mission of upper-classmen. No more than the usual number of students cut classes for the first day; professors have said; some of the cuts were owing to late trains and good weather and may be forgiven. Other professors hold that cutting the first class, even if it comes on New Year's, is an unreflective sin.
The new year probably was re-covered with less celebration in Law-

Mixers To Be Planned At Y. M. Meeting Jan. 2
The first meeting of the University Y. M. C. A. will be held in Myers Hall in the old Hostess House room January 2 at 7 o'clock. This meeting will be for the purpose of organizing the student Y. M. C. A. work for the rest of this year. Frank Parker Y. M. C. A. Secretary, will lead the meeting. All of last year's Y. M. C. A. office and members, and all men interested in student religious work are dged to be present.
The Y. M, C. A, is planning to have some sort of a mixer or entertainment once a week for the whole student body. A general Y. M, C. A—Y, W. C. A. mixer is being planned and it is probable that a picture show or some similar entertainment will be given every Saturday night.
Y. M. Gets Literature For University Men
The Y. M. C. A. has a generous supply of literature that will be distributed to the men students if they will go to the Y. office for it. This literature is in the form of small booklets written by prominent Y men and has been widely distributed to the United States soldiers in camp. A part of that sent here for the S. A. T. C. men is left and this will be distributed to the men students.
They also have about forty copies of each of three books. The Dynamics of Manhoof, Life's Clinic, and another to the man who care to read them.

Enrollment Saturday
Students who have not enrolled or who are obliged to make changes in enrollment may do so Saturday, January 4, from 9 to 12 o'clock A. M. in the following offices:
Freshmen, Fraser 104; Sophomore men, Fraser 303; Juniors, Ad. 204; Seniors, Fraser 202; Specials, Fraser 204.
Sixty-three Students Enter K.U. for First Time
Sixty-three students who were not in the University last quarter have enrolled this term. This number is not a total of the new men and women coming into school as some will enroll the last of this week. Saturday has been set as the day for enrollment of those returning to the Hill late.
UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS, WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON, JANUARY 1, 1919.
The total registration in the Uni-
versity for the academic year of 1918 is 3,211,884 of whom are women and 2,227 men. What proportion of this number will re-enroll cannot be determined yet.
On Other Hills
A petition urging support of President Wilson's proposal of a League of Nations to enforce permanent peace was drawn up and signed by the majority of the faculty of the University of Wisconsin last week. The petition is as follows:
"At this momentous period in the international relations o four country, it becomes the duty and the privilege of all interested in a jax and lasting peace to assert their convictions and exert their influence in behalf of an unanticipated policy for the future.
"Acting upon this principle, we the undersigned, members of the faculty of the University of Wisconsin, record our support of the positions of President Wilson in regard to the formation of a League of Nations—a position approved by responsibility spokesman of our Army. We recognize the formation of a League of Nations at the peace conference as an integral part and instrument of settlement, is indispensable to the guarantee of a just and lasting peace and of the rightsiness and cooperative relations of civilized nations.
"in pursuance of this conviction we transmit the expression to the congress of the United States and to the legislature of our state, petitioning the legislative bodies of the nation and of the state to endorse the formation of a League of Nations, to end all that the American people in all their varied interests and occupations must give assurance to the world as large of a united support of their official representatives in the negotiations for a world peace secured by international agreement.
"The signs of this revolution have urea other institutions of learning and learned societies to give the weight of their prestige to the success of this enterprise. In the same spirit of patriotic service and high purpose which has been so admirably shown in supporting the government in the victorious war for democracy and the power of right."
A four-year course for the training of secretaries, especially young women, in response to the demand for trained and capable assistants for business and other executives, has just been announced by the Course in Commerce of the University of Wisconsin.
The course, which is known as the general secretarial course and leads to a certificate. The special courses similar to other special courses offered by the department.
Dramatic Club Elects
Students will enter the secretarial courses after two years of fundamental studies in the Course in Commerce. The special studies which they will pursue during their last two years will include factory and office administration, buying and credits, marketing methods, retail advertising, commercial correspondence, corporation finance, investments, statistics, publicity and printing, stenography and typewriting. In addition to the special studies, they elect a certain number of broad academic subjects essential to the efficient, trained private secretary.
The Dramatic Club elected nineteen members this year, all of whom qualified in a tryout last semester. Merrill Dubach, Louise Skipner, Marjorie Fulton, Payton Taylor, Jessie Martindale, Lucile Cleveland, Marguerite Adams, Armena Runer, Jamey Sharkey, Nathan Flange, Fred Seanan, Cooper MacMurray, Burtland Canfield, Alphilde Sarson, Ethel Wykoff, Dorothea Engel, David Shefrey, and Wallace Shaw are the new members.
The Graduate Club will meet in Room 203; Administration Building at 4 o'clock Thursday afternoon. This is to be a business meeting. All members of the Graduate School are expected to attend.

Hottest and Coldest Weather For 51 Years Claimed by Old Year
University of Kansas Weather Station Has Second Oldest Records in Mo. Valley
The year 1913 was the hottest one experienced by this part of Kansas since the establishment of the weather station at Lawrence fifty-one years ago, and with one exception had the greatest range of temperatures, according to Prof. F. E. Keister, in charge of the station here.
According to the records, there were sixty days the past year classed as "hot," that is, with temperatures running greater than 90 degrees. At the same time, the temperatures dropped rather low, especially last January, when a minimum of 17 degrees below zero was recorded. This minimum, taken with the high reading of 109 degrees the latter part of August, gave the year's temperature. Back in 1873 the extreme cold was 193 degrees. These events are the greatest experienced since closer days, for the University of Kansas weather station has the oldest records, except those at Loewenworth, taken anywhere in the Missouri valley.
Wind in 1918 was of about average velocity, and there were no notable storms.
December, 1918, was the warmest December since the station was opened here, except the years of 1877, 1859 and 1869. The rainfall was slightly more than normal, and was well distributed, benefiting the winter wheat. The precipitation was fifteen inches of snow and 1.11 inches of rain. The average temperature for the month was 33.9 degrees, ranging from 2 to 62 degrees. In other respects the month was fairly normal.
Agricultural College Has Drainage Expert
Use Lubricating Oil As Non-Freezing Agent Chemistry Prof. Says
An ounce or two of very thin lubricating oil poured into the motor car radiator will save alcohol which is the only thoroughly satisfactory a n-t-freeze agent is what Prof. H. C. Althen of the department of chemistry at the University of Kennesa finds after considerable experiment.
Save Alcohol From Evaporation and Decreases Cost of Solution
WHAT MAKES A SONG
Special attention will now be given to Kansas agriculture, work by J. B. Darcellus, engineer in charge of the department of draining and irrigation, extension division, Kansas State agricultural College. This course will throughout the recent appointment of L. E. Titreau, who will specialize in farm irrigation.

Mr. Harrellus spent seven years in Idaho, Washington and Montana, and is thoroughly familiar with all phases of lerivation development.
A photoplay magazine says that a subscriber complained because the editor did not keep its readers informed about the coming hits. The editor answers that any man or woman who could do this could collect from $5,000 to $100,000 a year from publishers by keeping them supplied with this advance information. Nothing, says the editor, can boom a song into popularity. He instances a song on which the publishers spent $20,000 in ingenious advertising, but it wouldn't "take." The public's fancy for a song is one of the most uncertain things imaginable.—Outlook
A bulletin, "Pumping for Irrigation with Special Reference to the Arkansas River Valley," is ready for distribution. A map is practically completed which will give the average now being dripped by ditch or pump, the irrigable average, and the maximum mum, average, and minimum depths of water in all counties west of the ninety-six meridian.
The oil makes a thin film on top of the water in the radiator and deters the alcohol in evaporating.
Today is, in a sense, the real opening of the University this year. It is the first time during the present scholastic year that the University has had a chance to assert itself and maintain its own importance. With the war satisfactorily ended, the influenza epidemic past, and other interruptions disposed of, we can begin 1919 in the proper spirit, with a general atmosphere of "business as usual."
Formerly it was our habit to celebrate by loading. This year we are breaking time-honored precedents, and are all on the job, which is really nobler, after all, than making resolutions.
The University of Kansas is starting the New Year right, with business as usual. For the first time in the history of K. U., regular classes are being held on New Year's Day, and the regular issue of the University Dally Kansan is being published. Classes are not only being held, but what is more remarkable, students are attending them. And what is still more remarkable, they are not complaining about it.
"Our investigations of anti-freeze motor car mixtures show that almost all of them contain calcium chloride or alcohol," said Mr. Allen. "The calcium chloride mixtures will cause radiators to leak sooner or later. One widely known preparation contains calcium chloride and a tiny bit of alkali. The nikilai lessons the electrolytic action set up in the radiator, but does not eliminate it so that any radiator containing the mixture eventually will begin to leak at soldered points.
joiners, anti-freeze mixtures containing alcohol do not cause leaks in the radiators but if they cost more than the measured alcohol and glycerine there is an "sense" in buying then because the motor car owner can buy these drugs himself and mix it according to the draggirt's advice. The glycerine is added to lessen evaporation in the alcohol.
The Graduate Club will have a business meeting in Room 203, Administration Building, Thursday afternoon at 4 o'clock.
Men's Student Council meets tonight at the Agenda house at 7 o'clock.
Announcements
"Oxorene can be used as an antifreeze radiator liquid but it is not satisfactory. It injures rubber couplings and is likely to heat the engine in steady running; it also leans through almost any pump packing. When an anti-freeze preparation is identical not to carcasses or injure couplings, or if it will set up the electrolytic action that surely will ent out solders, it surely will do if it contains calcium chloride."
Debating Club meet
The Debating Club meets Tuesday night in Little Mermaid Green Hall. Plans for the work of the year were discussed. A practice debate for next Tuesday night was arranged. All persons who are interested in debating are invited to get into the club. All work in the society is done under the direction of Professor Shim.
Try-outs for the Dramatic Club play will be held Friday afternoon at 4:30 and Saturday morning at 9:30 in the Little Theater in Green Hall. Any student is eligible to try out.

Hugo Wedell May Return
To Resume Y. M. Work
Hugo "Dutch" Wedell, Y. M. C. A. secretary here last year, who has been in military service since last August. left Ft. Riley, where he has been stationed, just before the Christmas vacation for over-seasons. He was, however, held on the coast in a camp in Virginia.
Efforts are being made by Chancel lor strong and the Y. M. C. A. board of directors for his early release, to permit him to return to the University and resume his former duties as secretary which he was forced to give up, when he entered the service.
Plain Tales From the Hill
Just a little inside information, fellowes. When ever there is a Varsity dance, get a date with a member of the W, S, G, A., 'cauce then you don't have to pay.
Professor Chubb, of the department of political science is still new on the job. At the meeting of the class in Political Parties, Tuesday morning, he delivered a lecture which he had written for his European Government class.
Warning to All Lady-Fussers—Begin to save your extra coin because many parties are coming, and when they do they will come in a bunch. There will be the Soph Hop, Junior Prom, Law Sorm and Beauty Ball. And say guys, they will be some parties too, even if the Senate has set the price.
Dear Mr. Rowerock, Will you please reserve the left box in your little theater for me and my girl for every show. I like it, it seems to put one in closer touch with the play. Seriously, Lleut. Copas.
If the editor of the dayhawkers don't soon store the Beauty Content, some of the contestants are going to lose all chance of winning. One of the would-be-beauties is almost terror stricken for fear that she and her bean, who is diligently gathering votes for her will have a scrap before the content begins.
Attention of the snow plow brigade of the University is called to the fact that the walk between the two larger annexes to the Journalism building—commonly known as the Journalism Shoot the Chutes—has not been relieved of its burden of snow and alipury ice.
Charlotte Frank Strong was just about to enter his office in Fraser Hall when a student, quite likely a freshman, rushed up to him and excitedly spoke to him.
"Say," he said, "do you know, did I leave my book in Fraser yesterday?" The chancellor was surprised, to say the least. Yet he summoned his thoughts and informed the student that he didn't know whether the book was there or not but that it might be wise for the student to ask John Shen.
Even if the present mode of hair dresses resplashes a mountain goat, you have to admit that these "car bobs" are right there in keeping the girl's ears warm.
U. Car Turns to Mule Because of Slick Rails
On account of the snow and ice on the street car tracks last night it was almost impossible to get the K. U. car around the loop. The car that left Eighth and Massachusetts streets at 4:45 o'clock did not get up to the Green Hall station until after 6 o'clock.
Noted Play Chosen
By Dramatic Club;
Presented in March
This was only made possible then by running two cars together. The cars would start and run forward for about a half a block before they were stalled.
Then they would go back three or four blocks to put another start. Eventually all of the patrons who were on the car not off and walked
The car service this morning showed a decided improvement over that of last night.
Chemist Comes Back
Ralph Buffington, c18, has returned to the University to continue his work as a Fellow in Chemistry. Since he was graduated last spring, Mr. Buffington has been employed as chemist in a munnition plant in Connecticut.
Ralph Buffington has returned from Stamford, Conn., where he has been working in a munitions plant, and has re-enrolled in the Graduate School.
Is Comedy of Higher Type, According to Professor MacMurray
1rryout Held Next Friday
Any Student in University Elegible to Try Out for Play
"Mrs. Bumpstead-Leigh" is the play chosen by the Dramatic Club for presentation as the big play of the season. First try-outs for the cast will be held at 4:20 Friday afternoon and at 9:30 Saturday morning. The play will be presented in the early part of March.
Harry James Smith, the author of "The Little Schoolteacher," and "The Tailor Made Man," is the author of "Mrs. Bumpstead-Leigh." This play was presented in the Lyceum Theatre in New York with Mrs. Harrison Gray Glick playing the lead. It is a comedy in three acts and is not a war play.
"Any student, whether a member of the Dramatic Club or not, is eligible to try out for the play," said Herman Hingen, manager of the play. "Candidates for membership of the club are especially urged to try out. There are six male and six female characters in the cast. There are both juvenile and character parts. This play will be given at the Bowerwork Theatre as maud."
"This play has an unusual and interesting plot and is a comedy of the higher type," said Proof, Arthur MacMurray, who will coach the play. "It is the play of a famous author and is given to his other successors."
Government Will Test Textiles as Does Food
Goods
Simple Tests May Be Made By Consumer to Safeguard Cords
The tree is close at hand when textiles will come under a law similar to the pure food laws, according to students in the department of home economics. Each box of material will carry a label the kind of fibers used, the percent of each, and, in all probability, the conditions under which it is made.
Until such a law is passed, the consumer should know some simple tests for safeguarding his purchases. The following tests can be made by any purchaser in a very short time and at practically no expense.
1. L. Silk—(1) Turn a sample in an hot as a hot glue as possible. If an ash remains the silk is not exceedingly over weighted. If the sample does not lose its shape, metallic salts have been used in over abundances for weighting and the silk will soon go to pieces. (2) Artificial silk can be distinguished by its four per cent solution of caustic potash. Artificial silk will turn the solute yellow, while pure silk leaves a colorless solution.
14. Wool. Bob sample in five percent solution of caustic petash for a few minutes. The wool fibers will be dissolved and the cotton will remain the same. Cotton and wool are woven together and sold as all wool, but there is a decided difference in price in wool and cotton fiber.
III. Linen. Treat sample for two minutes with concentrated sulphuric acid. Remove with glass red. The linen fibers remain and the cotton dissolves. This test is not a good test for delicate materials, but rather for heavy weaves as toweling and damask.
Quill Club to Meet
Quill Club will hold an open meeting Thursday night, January 2, at 8 o'clock in Fraser Hall rest room. Miss Margaret Lynn and Miss Sara G. Laird will make short talks to the members of Quill and friends. All old members are especially invited.
Dr. Franklin at Lawrence
Dr. E. C. Franklin, formerly professor of physical chemistry in the University, is in Lawrence for a brief visit. Dr. Franklin left the University of Kanas in 1902 to take the position of professor of inorganic chemistry at Leland Stanford University. He is returning there from Washington where he has been in the war service.

PLEASE REMIT
Father is the real hero behind the lines. His regular battles of the first of the month are still going on, and are likely to continue indefinitely. But you would never know it, judging from that old-time Christmas dinner, would you? Father didn't mention conservation, or girare at you when you came back for "seconds." His heroism is of the silent variety.
Of the $14,000 pledged to the United War Work Fund by K. U. students during the campaign last fall, $0,000 has been paid up, and the other $5,000 remains uncollected. Only $200 of the $1600 pledged to the Student Loan Fund at the beginning of the first quarter has been turned in at the Registrar's office.
Today is the first of the year—the time to pay up back accounts, square yourself with the world, and take an invoice. Students who would never consider holding off a creditor, are standing off the University instead of paying in money which they voluntarily pledged to worth-while organizations.
S. A. T. C. men who believed last fall that they would receive government pay and subsistence during the entire year, are in a slightly different class from the ordinary student who has failed to pay up merely because of carelessness. Some of the men who felt that they were unable to meet their obligations to the various war funds have gone to the Registrar's office, and have asked to be released from their pledges. This is certainly a more honorable and business like method of disposing of the matter, than merely to let it slide.
Many S. A. T. C. men who did not return to the University this quarter have positions by this time. Within a few weeks or months they will be able to meet their obligations, and can send in the amounts pledged to the Registrar. They surely do not care to be put in the class with students who made pledges several years ago, which still remain unpaid. To be remembered at K. U. by your name on the Registrar's dead-bat list is at least unpleasant.
If you haven't paid your pledge, turn to the left in Fraser Hall, and step up to the Registrar's window. If you haven't the money, get out and earn it. It can be done.
REHOLD THE K.U. CAMEL
THE K.U. CAMEL
The camel has nothing on the K. U. student. For several centuries the human race has looked askance at the dictionary definition of "camel." "Nature faking," many personal termed the definition contained in this usually truthful book.
How, asked the serious thinker,
could a beast of any kind go seven days and then some without quenching his thirst? The average person shook his head and gave it up.
In those days the old-fashioned family well served its patrons in many ways. The family could go to it any time of the day or night and, by learning to operate the bucket, quench their thirst.
That well was a great invention. Cities have since tried to improve upon it by piping the idea and corporations have tried to bottle it, but the truth is, the well still remains as the one bright, wet spot in the memory of many.
The well became domesticated before the time of the present generation. Its usefulness has been taken for granted and the well itself was not missed until the present generation decided to go to college.
Then things happened. The fallacy of trusting to providence in the guise of city authorities to provide the real thing proved a big disappointment. Finally somebody suggested the bottled product for use between classes on the Hill. Again the college student was rebuffed. It would cost a tre-mend-ous amount, said the wise accountants. The state couldn't afford it, and so the student has gone thirsty.
The final result has been an earnest investigation by unbiased thinkers of the qualities of a camel. Perhaps the nature fakers were right. Mayhap the helpless camel does go seven days without a drink. We pity him, and envy him. We're doing our best to follow his example and if the present drought keeps up, we'll succeed. But, oh, you old-fashioned well and moss-covered bucket!

THE GLEANERS
Another University graduate has volunteered his services in foreign lands.
Not so spectacular, perhaps, as was the service of the fighting Yanks in war torn France, but quite as necessary is the self-sacrificing service of after the war workers.
The University of Kansas sent her sons to the front in answer to humanity's cry, and now she sends them to heal the wounds inflicted by the enemy.
A University graduate of last year has just been summoned to serve on an Armenian relief commission in Turkey.
A member of the faculty of the University of Kansas is represented in relief work in Russia.
Whether the government calls, or whether students offer their services to national organizations for relief work, or whether they, as individuals, serve humanity in a small way, does not matter, the point is they are ready to serve in time of need.
Many University students who have volunteered their services will go from army camps as recruits in the great reconstruction army now being organized. Commissions may be lacking, but the insignia of these volunteers will be the badge of service. To look forward to such service is the highest aim possible for students now in the institution.

Not being a member of that organization myself, I may make some mistake in advising you, but will do my best. An earnest interest in your work ought to be effective. Hereafter choose only those professors who wear the key and try to impress them with your intellect. The best way to do that, I think, is to cultivate an air of intense interest in class, supplemented with ten hours a day at hard study. If you follow this program you will doubtless achieve scholastic honor, and may learn a little something, too.

LIFE ETERNAL
You say the soul is nothing but the resultant of the bodily powers. Why, then, is my soul more luminous when my bodily powers begin to fail? Winter is on my head, but eternal spring is in my heart. I breathe at this hour the fragrance of the lilacs, the violets, and the roses, as at 20 years. The nearer I apprise the end the plainer I hear around me the immortal symphonies of the worlds which invite me. It is marvelous yet simple. It is a fairy tale, and it is history.
For half a century I have been writing my thoughts in prose and in verse, history, philosophy, drama, romance, tradition, satire, ode and song; I have tried all. But I feel I have not said the thousandth part of what is in me. When I go down to the grave I can say like many others, the one who has finished my days work." But I cannot say "I have finished my life". My day's work will begin again next morning. The tomb is not a blind alley; it is a thoroughfare. It closes on the twilight, it opens on the dawn.

UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN
Does Job Determine Religion?
Bright Cub Discovers Biologist Are Not All
Unitarians Nor English Profs. Episcopalians
"Does a man's profession affect his choice of religious denominations?"
The news editor of The Daily Kissan asked that question of a reporter. "Sure it does," replied the cocksure reporter.
"Got enough facts for a story?" "Sure, take the faculty. All biological profs are Unitarians, all math profs are Presysterians or Congregationalists. It goes it with chem profs, and somewhat with engineers, but many engineering profs lean toward Methodism or the Baptist Church, as do teachers of modern languages and sociology and language students of Episcopalians. The school of Medicine faculty belong to everything. So does the Law School gang. Economics and history profs hone to the Auld Lichts and the Congregationalists and Philosophy teachers to Episcopal and Unitarian.
"Chancellor Strong never misses a service at the Baptist Church," the news editor interrupted. "You're guessing. Go out and get the facts. That's a good story. Make it snappy. We need the copy."
The reporter went and found that a faculty member's choice of churches apparently was not affected by his calling, that instructors in biologic sciences were about as numerous in one church as another. Only one member of the English department was a member of the Episcopal Church, while that church represented the majority of the School of Engineering, the head of the Latin department, the Dean of the School of Pharmacy, a professor of philosophy and a professor in the School of Fine Arts.
"Now Chancellor Strong never misses a service at the Meth—"
More members of the University of Kansas faculty belong to the Congregational Church than to any other denomination and they represent mathematicians, painters, engineers, musicians, chemists, English instructors, School of Education, entomologists, botanists, bacteriologists, physiciana.
The Presbyterian, Baptist and Methodist churches have almost the same size representation in the faculty. The Christian Church has only about six faculty members, which is about
the number of University communicants the Catholic Church has. Lutherans, Friends and other denominations have membership in the faculty that would be classified as "scattering" by the political reporters.
"The that piece is a little long winded," crabbed the news editor as the reporter finished, "can't you get it shorter and a little more jump to it." "Yes, you'd like a real snappy Christian Endeavor story," replied the reporter sarcastically.
"No, no. Cease with the satiate.
Get a punch into your stuff. Did you happen to think to ask any of those prof persons whether or not they might have a pull with their respective churches?"
"Hunh." grunted the reporter.
"Huh," grunted the reporter. "Well, you didn't and you missed a good part of that story and a good chance to do your University some good. You went to a denominational school before you came to the University. So did I, so did several dozen of the rest of us, and you know the mistaken notions they have of University religious and social life at many of these schools. You've heard absolutely false, lying assertions made of the universities by persons who sought to build up other schools at the expense of great state institutions.
"Well, you know and all the rest of us, who have attended denominal schools, know that student life at the University is just as wholesome, just as clean as at any denominational school. I'll go to the mat on that."
I know—yet when I was home Christmas I heard a steward of our church make absolutely untrue assertions about student life. I politely "called" him and he had to admit that he did not know what he was talking about and had only the vague hear-say information that was not information. The man, to put it very plainly, liebed because he had a hobby of a game that he was interested in. Now why can't these faculty felows who are pilars in all these churches set their brethren, who are elsewhere, right on the subject. Why didn't you get something like that into your story?"
"Didn't have time," replied the reporter, "I had to go to class."

Plymouth Jottings
Suppose you were to become a teacher in a High School. And suppose you were asked to teach a required or course lecture in Bible, or suppose you were a Topica Sunday School teacher and were asked to prepare your class for a Topica High School examination for credit. Would you feel competent? Is the average Bible very well written? Is the Bible or in things religious, not to say Christian? Anybody acquainted with the facts knows that the coefficient of our ignorance along these lines is very high.
It is to meet this legitimate demand that the School of Religion is to be revived. This is a school not connected formally with the university but fostered by some of the religious workers at the university. It aims to do serious work. Discussion groups meet a real need. But you would never become an astronomer by joining a discussion group. So you will never learn anything very advanced by merely discussing Christianity. Christianity deserves to be studied.
Do you seriously desire to prepare yourself for service in the Christian Church? The churches all need competent lay workers, teachers, and other religious leaders. Your chance to increase your equipment a little along these lines is in the School of Religion at K. U. Ask Dr. Dill about it, or Dr. Braden.
Yours very cordially.
ROSS W. SANDERSON,
Pastor of Plymouth.

JANUARY 1,
Track Work Started With Real Work Out First Day of New Year
"Too Early to Estimate Year's Prospects," Says Coach W. O. Hamilton
Haddock Good Point Winner
Candidates Urged to Get Out Early for Preliminary Practice
"We can't tell yet how we are going to come out with our track team, but we have some good men returning to school and some of the old men will surely be back before long. We will work out regular and develop what we have to work with," said Coach W. O. Hamilton today upon his return from New York.
E. Bradley of Oklahoma is on the camps and will be out for the team His brother O. Bradley is in training in Texas and may return this quarter. The Bradley brothers, almost single handed, won the inter-class meet for the first year men when they were here last year. Lewis Duff of Horton is on the Hill and is a classman on the stick events and sprints. Duff is a sophomore. Grisham of Syracuse is back with the University and will be out this week. Joe Schwartz at Kansas City will be out. He has not shown much since his entrance into K. U. athletics but the big boy has the stuff that should make him one of the Valley's sprinters.
WINTER SPORTS AT K. U.
The Kansas track squad will take their first real workout of the season under Coach Hamilton at the gym New Year's afternoon, when the coach will assign all of the men to the training they shall take in preparation for their season's work in valley athletics.
Marshall Haddock of Kansas Clp who was the leading K. U. athlete last season is here and should be hign point man for the Kansas team again this season. Loren Dewall of Cottonwood Falls will be out for the distance events. Dewall has been working out all fall and winter and will play in the full of the session. Wilfred Hilton of Cottonwood Falls will lie in for track.
Rahp Rodley, who won his letter in the broad jump and quarter, has been working out-with Dewall and should be better than last season. Charles Heizer of Osage City did some vaulting with the first year string last spring and should make the Varsity a valuable man this coming season. Heizer is good on the stick events also. Floyd Welch a distance and relay man from Alva, Oklh., is expected in the University soon as he is in training. Coach Hamilton has wired for the athlete's release and the runner expects to get out of the army soon.
"The host of Trades are going to be laid for the first practices and all men should come out at the start of the season," said W. O. Hamilton. The first meet is with the Kansas Aggies and will be held in Robinson Gym, February 17.

Why is Lincoln most loved of Americans? Washington was a greater man of action. In special intellectual attributes Franklin and others have equaled or surpassed Lincoln. What is loved in Father Abraham is the whole personality—I might say the Christianliness, if Christ were not so out of fashion at this moment. Lincoln's business is what was in their moral insight. His mind and his heart were wedded. He was one of the few tender and tolerant spirits who ever climbed the twisting ladder that leaded to political eminence. No rancor marred his soul, no revenge, no pride
LINCOLN IS LOVED
He met public fury and it passed him by. Against our imperialistic and tricky war on Mexico he refused to follow "patriotism." The youngest member of the Illinois legislature, he was one of only two in that whole body that dared to go on record against public prejudice on the most sensitive issue of the day. When the Civil war was won he stood like a rock against punishing the South. His party in congress and in the newspapers was breathing the usual virtuous ferocity of conquerors. With matchless obliquity he took his stand on reconstruction and it will do any American good to read his reasons for holding out the hand of fellowship to Louisiana. The redblinded ones were protesting against such foolishness. What a mollycoddle Lincoln was, with his malice toward one and his charity for all! How serene and noble he leans; now that the angry dust of those days has cleared away!" Norman Hangroed in Leslie's.
SHUCKS
Some years ago are the private car of former President McKinley stopped in the early morning at a little country town. The president, looking out of the window, saw a barefoot boy lying under a blanket she had scratched during the night that he might stand on the spot warmed by the animal's body.
"How often I have done that same thing," remarked the president to the members of the presidential party, a number of whom were United States senators, whereupon he surprised he discovered that nearly every individual present claimed formerly to have been a barefoot farm boy and to have had the same experience—Detroit News.

Kansas is a member of the National Collegiate Athletic Association and was represented by Coach Hamilton. Ames was the only other western school represented.

"The eastern schools are just considering the plan of making the conches a part of the faculty and giving them positions for the whole year. We have used that plan for years here in the Valley. They have some good ideas that we may introduce in the west."

Honor System Plans Are to Be Discussed At Meeting of Women
Agitation of Two Years Past Leads to Taking of First Action
Highly Desirable, Says Dean
Students Should Join Faculty In Eliminating Cheats, Says Miss Corbin
A plan for co-operation between women of the University and members of the Disciplinary Committee to prevent cheating in examinations, and other class-room work, will be discussed at a mass meeting of all women students in Fraser Hall Chapel, Monday January 6, at 4:30 o'clock. What rules might be necessary, and what penalties be provided will be amidst the subjects to be considered.
The meeting is to be purely for the discussion, and every women present will be given an opportunity to express her views.
For the last two years, there has been an agitation among the students for a more effective method of preventing cheating. Now every woman in the University will be given a chance to express her opinion on the matter.
Dean Patterson, when asked his opinion about the plan of the women students to co-operate with the Disciplinary Committee, elected from the senate, said:
GOOD PLAN SAYS DEAN
"I am sure that the Disciplinary Committee would be very gud if the women of the University would take hold of this movement and push it through. It would be very easy for them to co-operate with the Disciplinary Committee after the movement has been started by the voluntary action of the women themselves. A movement toward establishing an honor system must be voluntary movement on the part of the students if it is to be a success. The students would then feel some responsibility and would not think that it had been thrust upon them by the faculty.
"About two years ago an investigation, on whether an honor system should be established or not, was made by committee of faculty and students. Their decision at that time was that the time was not ripe for the establishment of such a system, but their decision would not have weight at this time. The Deciplinary Committee has been established since that time, and has been able to accomplish many tasks along the line of doing away with dishonest work in classes and excuse problems. It is sure that the committee to call up any student, and the committee would be very glad indeed if the women students could make this task of the committee unnecessary.
IS PERTINENT PROBLEM
"I think that if the women will be able to carry this matter through and establish an honor system it will be the finest thing that has happened to the University for a long time. The women of the University have proved themselves capable of establishing efficient organizations and if anyone is capable of making the honor system at K. U. a success, it is the women of the school."
"I am heartily behind the move- ment," said Miss Alberta Corbin, a visi- or of women, "and consider it a of the most pertinent problems one year. Dishonest work is o f the to a university and its priso- grace and the penalties for it shew avention cided by the students as w ill be de- Disciplinary Committee. well as the in the near future the me- hope that versity will follow the 1 of the Uni- been taken by the women of that hat

Try-Outs for Play Open to All Students
The try-outs for the dramatic club play are open for any student in the University," said Prof. Arthur McMurray this morning. "There are twelve good parts in the play to be filled and there is room for students new in dramatics to make the cast." The first try-outs for the cast will be held at 4:30 o'clock Friday afternoon in the Little Theater in Green Hall. Contestants will be eliminated at following try-outs until the final cast is chosen. The cast will be chosen upon the showing made at these try-outs.
Men Will Resume Work On Paper, Says Gleissner
Reporting and Editing Essenti tially Man's Work is K.U. Man's Belief
"The newspaper business is essentially a man's work and although the women have done well in the energy during the war, their place will be largely filled by he men who are returning from the army," is the opinion of John Gleissner, who was graduated from the department of journalism in 1916 and was visiting at the University today. Before he entered the army Gleissner was associated with the Cleveland Press, and the United Press in Washington. Gleissner was also a special publicity representative for the Committee on Public Information in Washington.
"I doubt whether the average age of the editorial staff of the metropolitan newspapers of the country is more than twenty-six or twenty-seven," he continued, "and the majority of these young men have been in the service. They will be returning soon and most of them will want back their old places on the newspapers, and it is only fair that they should have their old positions. A large number of the women who have been in the profession have been doing the work just as a war measure and will be leaving the business world anyway so that it will not be a hardship on the women for the men to be given back their old places.
"I do not mean that there will be no women left on the newspapers. There are some things on newspapers that are essentially a woman's work and there will always be a certain percentage of women in the newspaper world, but that percentage will not be exceeded to any great extent."
Quill Club will hold an open meeting Thursday night at 8 o'clock in Fraser Rest Room.
Announcements
Try-outs for the Dramatic Club play will be held Friday afternoon at 4:30 and Saturday morning at 9:30 in the Little Theater in Green Hall. Any student is eligible to try out.

Dean Templin Sends Word He Will Return To University Soon
NUMBER 48.
Olin Templin, dean of the College, who has been on leave in Washington, more than a year, is expected to return to the University within a few weeks. Dean Templin has had charge of the educational division of the Food Administration and was to have been a member of a government investigating and reconstructing commission to Russia, had not the commission been abandoned to await the results of the pence conference. Chancellor Strong received the following letter from Dean Templin today:
"The Russian expedition has been abandoned completely upon advice of those who know most about affairs in that unhappy country. It seems beat that any attempt to relieve the Russians should wait until the peace conference has decided upon the allied attitude. Mr. Walcott who was to have charge of the expedition goes to France in a few days."
Dean Templin adds that he is leaving Washington at once to join Mrs. Templin who is visiting relatives and then he expects to reach Lawrence in about two weeks.

Because a P Student went to his room to study W ednesday afternoon, fire was discov on the third floor of confined A Nu fraternity house, and fi ciel to one room through the ef- work of the Lawrence fire de- sent.
No fire was of unknown origin, and a bird not spread from the room because of closed windows and doors allowing no draft. When the fire was discovered, the room was full of smoke, and the men in the house at the time were unable to enter it and bring out clothes and books.

Checks to Be Mailed to Men Not Enrolled in the University This Quarter
Final pay for the men of the S. A.
T. C. has arrived and all former members of the S. A. T. C. now enrolled in the University may call for it at the adjutant's office in Green Hall Friday afternoon, between 2 and 5:30 o'clock. If students fail to call for their pay it will be sent to the addresses they left at the adjutant's office when they received their discharge papers. Pay checks will be mailed to men who are not enrolled in the University.
Orders have been received at headquarters to speed up demobilizing as much as possible. Only eighteen men are left to receive discharge papers and they probably will be received with the last pay. Seventeen officers have been recommended for discharge and will be discharged as soon as their papers are received from the Central Department.
Nothing has been announced as to when the men of the naval section will receive their pay or subsistence money. Ensign Finnegan could not be found by reporters this morning.
World's Press Congress To Meet in Sydney, N.S.W.
The Press Congress of the World will convene in Sydney, Australia, on November 11, 1919, the first anniversary of the signing of the armistice with Germany which ended hostilities in the world war, according to word just received from Dean Walter Williams of the School of Journalism of the University of Missouri, president of the congress, who is now in the Orient on a mission for the United States Government.

Women of Kansas Want Dormitories for K. U.
Misa Alberta Corbin will go to Topeka tomorrow to attend a meeting of the committee on "Halls of Residence for Girls," of which she is chairman. Another member of the committee who will go from here is Mrs. W. R. Stubbs.
This committee is a branch of the Kansas Council of Women which is composed of all the presidents and members of the state-wide women's organizations.
The work of this committee is the only work that the Council has undertaken and it was taken up upon the basis of its own experience, versatility, the late Mrs. Scott Hopkins.
Women's Glee Club will hold its regular rehearsal tonight at 7 o'clock in Fraser Chapel.
A LITTLE ACTION, PLEASE!
The Men's Student Council is coming back to life, but the process of revivification is evidently not fully completed. The organization met last night for the purpose of setting a definite day for class elections. After lengthy discussion, no date was determined, and, as has been customary, council members announced this morning that the class elections will be held in the "near future."
Journalism Made Big
The Council defends its dilatory procedure by saying that there is not sufficient interest in politics to announce the date for class elections now. No better method for arousing interest in an election has ever been devised, than announcing the last date on which petitions may be handed in.
One senior class ticket has been nominated and organized for more than a month. Students who are delaying the election are desirous of organizing other class tickets, and an opposition senior ticket. These things should be done, of course, if we are to have a real election, but they should be done now. No one will take an avid interest in voting for this year's class officers when the apple blossoms bloom next May. The whole matter will be a trifle out-of-date by that time.
Course at Idaho
A new course in newspaper writing is offered at the University of Idaho this quarter.
The Argenton, University of English
The Argenton, University Daily of Idaho says, "The work in news writing is of great value to all students who are preparing for any kind of work. The course helps prepare students in Engineering, Home Economics, Agriculture and Business."
All students are allowed to enroll Freshmen and sophmores are permitted to take the work if they secure permission from Professor G. M. Miller of the department of English.
Plain Tales From the Hill
These are them good old days when great hunks and gobs of black soot float airily about in the air and finally land on your nose and smear all over your face when you try to whisk it off.
“Are you going to Ad?" he inquired.
The fraternity freshmen are beginning to talk about "Hell Week." What again? We thought that happened just before the holidays.
One little girl on her way to the ward school cut through the campus north of the Ad. Building and wondered "Who had to wade through this deep snow first and break the path for us."
New Year's resolutions and New Semester resolutions come all at once this year. Or the University woman was heard to ask, "Say, is the library open on Sunday?"
"No," replied the Lovely Young Lady. "I'm going to subtract from my grade."
Four Earthquakes Leave Record Here in December
An earthquake of moderate intensity, estimated to have been twenty-one hundred miles from Lawrence, in an undetermined direction, was recorded by the University seismograph the night of December 31. The primary wave occurred at 9:15:20 o'clock and was followed by the secondary wave (doubtful) at 9:17:27, and the main shock at 9:23:32. The disturbance was ended at 11:14:00. The maximum range of the needles was two-thirds of an inch.
This was the fourth earthquake recorded here during the month of December, one occurring on Deember 4 and two on December 6.
Senior Play Contest
To End January 15
The usual prize of $50 will be awarded the winner provided the play is produced. All manuscripts for the Senior Play should be turned in by January 15, Professor MacMurray. Several students have signified their intentions of entering the contest and a good live contest seems assured, according to Professor MacMurray.
The original play contest under the direction of the public speaking department, will be held this year following the customs of previous years, Prof. Arthur MacMurray said this morning. The contest is open to all students of the University.
Changes in Enrollment To Be Made Saturday
Applications to enroll in the University this quarter are still being received. The students making these applications will enroll Saturday morning. At the same time students who wish to make changes in classes will do so at the places designated for enrollment.
After Saturday definite figures up on the total enrollment in the various schools and departments will be given out, according to Registrar George O. Foster. The School of Education has enrolled to date 160 students, an increase over last quarter.
Enrollment Saturday
Students who have not enrolled or who are obliged to make changes in enrollment may do so Saturday, January 4, from 9 to 12 o'clock A. M. in the following offices:
Freshman, Fraser 104; Sophomore men, Fraser 305; Juniors, Ad. 204; Seniors, Fraser 202; Specials, Fraser 204.
Men's Student Council Postpones Fixing Date For Class Elections
Reason for Delay is Lack of Accurate Class Lists So Far
Tickets To Appear Soon
Candidates Must Hand In Petitions to Herschel Washington, President
No definite date for the class elections was set at the meeting of the Men's Student Council Wednesday night, but a report of the meeting said that the election would be in the "near future." Included in the election of officers of the different University classes will be the election of members of the Student Council sufficient to fill up the vacancies in that body, the Council decided.
The reason given for not setting a date for the election was that much preparation is yet needed before the event can take place. Accurate lists of all students in all classes and of all men in the schools of the University participating in the election of council members, must be bad before the election. These lists are checked off as the students come to the polls to insure against a person voting more than once. Because enrollment details are not available now these lists cannot be had.
CLASSES HAVE TICKETS
"The classes are well on the way to getting out tickets, I understand," said Herschel Washington, president of the Student Council. "It behoves them, however, to speed up arrangements as the election will be shortly. Interest seems to be picking up in politics."
How many student council members are to be elected cannot be determined yet, according to Washington. The normal membership of the organization is eighteen. The number of members is based on the enrollment in the University, and cannot be fixed till definite enrollment figures are available. Each school is represented by one man for each 100 students enrolled in the school, or fraction of 100.
There are six old men back on the Council this quarter, but more are expected to enroll late. There probably will be eight or ten vacancies on the council to fill. Just what schools these new members will come from cannot be determined until enrollment statistics are compiled to find out how many representatives each school may have. Some schools will not elect new men, probably, because they are already represented on the council by old men. All schools—College, Engineering, Law, Medicine, Pharmacy, and Graduate—are entitled to membership. In college and engineering, there usually are several members because of the large size of these schools.
The secretary-treasurer elected last spring, Farrell Lobaugh, is not in school this year. This position may be filled by election by the students, according to Washington. If this is done it will be by election by men of all students.
PETITIONS MUST BE IN
The members of the council who are in school now are: Herschel Washington, president; George DeVoe, vice-president; Ed. Mason, Robert Albach, Marvin Harms, and Homer Engles. With the reorganization of the council, it hopes, according to Washington, to be acting under normal conditions and resume normal activities. The organization was shot to pieces the first quarter by the absence of the members in military service.
Petitions must be got out by candidates for offices, both in the class and the council elections. Fifty signers are necessary for the petition of an aspirant to a class office, and twenty-five signers for a candidate for student council membership. These must be filled out and handed in to President Washington at a date a few days before the election, this date to be set later. The petition and the date must pay in seventy-five cents to the president of the council. This fee covers costs of election, ballots and the like.

MEN WHO SERVE
The latest K. U. professor to be called by the government for active service in war work is Prof. Arthur L. Owen, head of the department of Hispanic Languages and Literatures, who has been asked to be the director of all instruction in Spanish for American soldiers overseas. If he can return to the University next fall to reorganize his own department here, Professor Owen will take up the army work for the next six months.
K. U. students, alumni and in fact, all people in the State of Kansas, have reason to be proud of the important work which has been done during the war by former University professors and instructors.
Dean Olin Templin co-operated with the Food Administration in Washington, and has now gone to Russia, with the food commission. The War Department entrusted the task of perfecting "argon" gas which made observation balloon service much safer, to Dr. H. P. Cady, and the experimentation which proved successful was carried on right here on the campus. Every professor and instructor who taught in the department of psychology two years ago was called by the government to aid in the psychological test given to army recruits.
Many University instructors have become officers or have enlisted in the service. Those who have remained on the Hill have carried on the necessary war work at home with energy and enthusiasm, Prof. U. G. Mitchell, chairman of the various war drives at the University, is but one of the men who have served in this way.
Without exception, each professor has done the thing he does best better than ever, as his part in helping win the war. Professor Owen's work will be a part of the immense reconstruction program which the United States will carry out. His attitude is characteristic. He will do the war work, and then will return to K. U. to reorganize his own department. The men who are still in the service will complete the work to be done in that capacity, and then will undoubtedly resume their work at K. U.
BREAKFAST GREETINGS
BREAKFAST
Emerson once said of Lord Holland that he always came down to breakfast with the air of a man who had just met with some signal good fortune. How we wish we had a few Lord Hollands with us today!
When you come down to breakfast at the boarding club now you usually meet a bunch of faces that would be entirely in place at a funeral. Someone glances up with a sharp "morning," looking as if he had just broken off his tooth on the biscuit. Someone else is pouring over a book with a woe-be-goe lock which immediately conveys to you the impression that some witch has sent him out with a leaky sieve to dip up all the stray knowledge in the University.
Then you sit down beside another who gives you a sickly apologetic smile, as if he were very much embarrassed at being found doing such an extraordinary thing as eating, and begs your pardon for every bite he takes. Someone else comes in and sits down across from you only to scowl at his musk as if it had insulted him by merely being musky.
Ab! truly, the general air of our Lords and Ladies today seems to be that they are carrying the world on their shoulders and a chip besides.
When members of the legislature visit our institution why not escort them over the Hill from 8:30 a. m. to 5:30 p. m., and when they beg for a drink tell them, politely the story of the cannel and show them the expense budget?
RESTORE THE LANDSCAPE
The S. A. T. C. barracks are soon to be salvaged. The University will try to dispose of them in as profitable a way as is possible, in order to save a small portion, at least, of their original cost.
In so doing, University authorities who let the contract for the wrecking of the buildings should put the contractor under bond to complete the work within a reasonable time. A year ago, the contract was given to have North College destroyed. The work was half done, but the building has not been touched since last spring. The ruins of the first building of the University are a scar on the landscape.
The burracks should be salvaged if there is no use for them, and when the work is begun, it should be completed within a definite time.
THE RETURNING SOLDIER
Geographical conditions over which there is no control mount, Oread hard to ascend. But the townspeople of Lawrence could at least shovel the snow from their walks these days, and protect the snow and safety of K. U. students to that small extent.
JANUARY 2,1916.
He was returning home with his discharge papers in his pocket. On his sleeve were two gold stripes and one blue one. Around his left shoulder was a cord showing that he had been under fire eleven times. On his cont lapel hung a medal awarded for harrying.
The train was blocked by a wreck Dinner time came and the returning soldier went into the dining car for dinner. Only two seats at a table for four were vacant. The soldier chose a chair and sat down. Opposite him were 'two girls returning to college.' The girls said nothing, but when another table was vacated they left the table and also the feeling that their dignity had been impaired.
The feeling that all soldiers, except a few intimate friends and relatives, are merely soldiers, should be eliminated. In the training camps and in the trenches the men have looked upon their comrades as equals. Social standing to them, has lost its meaning.
Is this democratic spirit to be broken down by the "folk at home" because they have not progressed as rapidly as the boys in the service? The universities are centers in which to foster this new democracy and college women should cultivate this democratic spirit.
Ushering in the New Year this year was expensive.

The habit of reading for amusement becomes with thousands of people exactly the same kind of habit as wine drinking or opium smoking; it is like a narcotic, something that helps to pass the time, something that keeps up a perpetual condition of dreaming, something that eventually results in destroying all capacity for thought, giving exercise only to the surface parts of the mind, and leaving the deeper springs of feeling and the higher faculties of perception unemployed.
The result of all this reading means nothing but a cloudiness in the mind. That is the direct result. The indirect result is that that mind has been kept from developing itself. All development necessarily means some pain, and such reading as I speak of has means to avoid that pain, and the consequence is atrophy - Lafcadio Hearn.

Why is it that there no light by the lilac hedge cast off of Fraser Hall? This is the darkest spot on the campus. Many students are compelled to pass this hedge on their way home from Spooner Library. It is anything but pleasant to apply this shadow onto an ink draw into one quad and after another.

Most people kill a wasp on sight. In fact, "wasp swatting" is quite a fashionable fad in some districts where the insects are over plentiful.
DON'T KILL WASPS
That is all wrong. The female wasp destroys millions of destructive caterpillars. She stings the caterpillars to death, and lays her eggs it its carcas. The hatched out grubs do the rest.
All this is untrue. He never die an unkind action to any human being. On the contrary, he is one of man's best friends, in that his whole life is in hunting and eating mosquitoes, those deadly carriers of disease.
The dragonfly, again, has a bad but quite ill deserved reputation. His popular name in some parts of England is the "devils damn needle," and he is reputed to "sting" and "bite," and is also supposed by the ignorant to enjoy boring in peoples' ears.
So well is this understood in countries where malaria abounds and the infection of which is spread by a certain species of mosquito called the anophele, that public opinion suffices to protect the dragonfly from mollestation, since anybody found killing them must be a rough time of it at the hands of his justly incensed neighbors—Pearson's Weekly.

Former Student Talks To Newspaper Class
Miss Mitchell Now Washington Correspondent for New York Tribue
"Washington is the place where one must be expert in some line," said Miss Hannah Mitchell, in talking to the advanced news writing class today. Miss Mitchell, former student in the University is now Washington correspondent for the New York Tribune. She is the only woman correspondent in Washington for a metropolitan newspaper. Now that the war is over she will write principally of women in reconstruction work.
"The people want to know what is being thought in Washington, and so the news is somewhat interpretive," continued Miss Mitchell. "The experienced correspondent is so familiar with the whole situation that he can write a good story from only a tip. A correspondent is absolutely dependent on every other newspaper person in town for no one can get all the news in Washoe. So the corrector exchanges stories and help each other and wow to the one who holds out on a story he has agreed to share. The exchange is really a matter of self-preservation and is more selfish than holding on a story to get a scoop on a small paper."
"In Washington the newspaper people rank right next to senators and representatives," said Miss Mitchell, "and some people even give the correspondents higher rank in society.
According to Miss Mitchell there is not much chance for getting a scoop in Washington for when an interview is granted all reporters are present and each gets the same story and then, trys to get a different angle on it for his namer:
Miss Mischell thinks the work done by beginners on small papers is invaluable and advises every person aspiring to newspaper work to first do their preliminary work on some small paper.

Pete Gross is Expected To Be Boxing Instructor
Hamilton
Pete Gross, a welterweight boxer, and champion in his class at Camp Dewey, who was at the University of Kansas last quarter as a member of the naval unit, will probably act as instructor for the boxers of the University, according to W. O. Hamilton, manager of athletics. Gross is now in Kansas City, and has boxed with the Kansas City Athletic Club.
Fifty pairs of boxing mats are on
the floor and will be used by the de-
partment's staff.
Boxing is fast coming to the front as a college sport and is an exercise that builds up the mind and body," said Coach Hamilton. "It is a good thing to know for personal defense. Gross will work with the men as they learn the rudiments of the sport in bouts among themselves.
"I have been trying for some time to get some classy boxer to work with the boxing class at K. U. and believe Pete Goss will fill the bill. He has been reading the government instruction book and with his natural ability should be able to give the men some good training"

Valley Baseball Missouri Arranged Has Not Bee Back Although Men Ai
Kansas has made no preparations for a baseball season and none of the other schools of the Missouri Valley have mentioned the sport. The athletic schedule for most of the schools of the valley were drawn up in the spring meeting in Kansas City and basketball was not mentioned. In spite of the fact that many players are back in school from training camps, the universities have not taken steps to revive baseball.
Kansas Could Start Work With Seventeen Old Players and Wedell, Freshman Coach
Baseball in the Missouri Valley almost died out last spring. Ames, Missouri and Kansas were the only universities who put nines in the field last season and the games were scheduled in series of three to cut down transportation expenses. The bad weather caused most of the games to be cancelled and no team won enough games to be declared Valley Champions.
"We have not heard of any baseball teams in the Valley and as the sport is usually a big loser it will probably die this spring," said W. O. Hamilton, manager of athletics at K. U.
John Bunn of Humboldt, catcher is back. Charles Slawson, the only winning twirler in the Varsity last spring is in school, and Marvin Harm of Wichita, Willard Pierce of Kansas City, and Clyde Marxen of the first year mound staff are back and all are good ossers. Henry Cherry, the carrot-topped first sacket on last year's nine, dined in a training camp this winter. Harms could be used at first. Basil Church of Lawrence is a fair first sacket and will be discharged from the army this month. Isenberger, last year's second sacker is on the Hill. Stem Foster of Kansas City and Dutch Longbord of Holton, short stop and third sacker, are here. Kansas would have a battery and infield hard to beat if the game is revived.
Wardy Woltmier, Frank Oyster,
Judkins, Lashey, Palmer, MacLeod,
Red Desmond and John Haack are
good players who will be eligible for
the Varsity baseball team this season.
Hugo Wedell, who coached the first
year men last season will be discharged from Ft. Riley soon and will be back at his Y. M. C. A. work here.
Wedell is a good player and a good
coach.
Sport Beams
Harvard, Yale, and Princeton are in the unique position of not having any football captain for next fall. Harvard had one this fall, but under normal conditions he would not be eligible even to play on the Crimson eleven of 1919, as he is a graduate of Darmouth and a member of the Students Army Training Corps, which has gone out of existence. So far as is known, the captains elected by
these universities for the season of 1917 will be eligible for their teams next fall and possibly they will assume their duties on the gridron. After doing active service in the United States Army or Navy for more than a year, it has been suggested they should be allowed to lead
varsity teams if they return to then lives before the next football their colse season.
E. C. Quigley, t. he National League umpire, has been so successful coaching the St Louis Un'verity football eleven this fall that he has been reengaged for next year.

It is a new deal this term. How about it? Are you going to church on Sunday? If not, why not? Is the church a back number? If so, what do you propose to substitute for it? Have you investigated the Lawrence churches? Better do it.
Prof. McKeever speaks at Plymouth Sunday evening, "Man and the New Democracy," will be his subject. You will be cordially welcome.
Sunday morning I plan to speak on "Behold, I make all things new." This will be a study of the divine energy that underlies all progress. These are momentous days for civilization. Are you thinking of history from the religious standpoint?
Do you feel the remotest interest in missions? Have you ever considered the bare possibility of being a missionary? Would you like to keep in touch with the missionary movement? If so, Dr. Braden's hospitable home swings wide its doors to you every Wednesday evening at six. Dr. Braden is worth knowing. Part of a university education is to know its significant personalities. Dr. Braden is one of the significant personalities on K. U. Hill. Nuff sed.
Have you any leannings toward the ministry? Are you willing to consider it as a life work? Here again Dr. Braden opens his home to you. This time on Monday evenings. Your host will not try to denominationalize you. If he would, I wouldn't be giving his splendid work this free publicity. Dr. Braden is first of all a loyal servant of his Master. Any young man headding toward the ministry will not be defected from the denomination of his choice by contact with Dr. Braden. He will be strengthened in his determination to make his life count for Christianity. That is the fine spirit that pervades all our religious work on K. U. Hill.
Yours very cordially,

President of Council Explains Delayed Call For Student Elections
Washington Expresses Hope for Voting On or Before January 17
Class Lists Are Necessary
Rolls Cannot Be Completed If Less Than Two Weeks, Says Registrar
A reply to the editorial in last night's Daily Kansan, was issued today by Herschel Washington, president of the Men's Student Council, giving reasons for not setting the date for council and class elections.
In his communication, President Washington indicates the desire of the council to have the elections held on or before the date provided for such elections, namely on the Friday of the third week of the first semester. Mr. Washington would consider this the first semester of the collegiate year, and the date for the election would accordingly be January 17. He says official lists of the members of the various classes are necessary before elections can be held, and Registrar George O. Foster said today such lists could not be compiled in less than two weeks.
President Washington's statement follows:
"The Student Council is of the opinion that the present quarter should be considered as if it were the beginning of the school year. Inasmuch as the election rules specify just what time the elections should be held, they would be held, if the old order of things were adhered to, at that particular time. However, the council hopes that class lists may be obtained from the registrar, which are absolutely necessary, for holding the election, before that time and it will thus be possible that the election be held earlier in the period than usual. The latest date at which petitions can be handed in will be announced not later than next Tuesday.
"The writer of yesterday's editorial in The Daily Kansan was evidently ignorant of all the facts in the case and could have avoided unnecessary criticism by interviewing any member of the council."
"It is impossible to tell just when the lists from the registrar's office will be ready for election use." said Registrar Foster this morning. "The transfer of men from the S. A. T. C. makes the work more difficult than usual, but it now seems apparent that these lists cannot be ready before two weeks."
Irrigation Development Would Help Soldiers
Five Million Acres Could B Watered from Wells, Says Professor Haworth
Governor Arthur Capper, in view of the fact that many of the soldiers returning from France will be without employment, has written Prof. Erasmus Haworth of the department of Geology in regard to the number of acres of land in western Kansas that would be available through irrigation for farm use. Professor Haworth in his reply to the governor made the statement that there were 5,000,000 acres that could be irrigated with water obtained at a depth of seventy-five feet.
Professor Haworth has been working on the underground water facilities of Western Kansas since 1897, and was instrumental in bringing in the large wells at Newton and Norton.
According to Professor Haworth, a movement is now on foot to form county organizations to aid the State Council of Defense in their work of obtaining employment. Mr. Prifolli, a Principal representative to the legislature from Fayette county was in Lawrence December 17, and forming an organization here.
An important mass meeting of the women students of the University will be held Monday, January 6, at 4:30 o'clock in Fraser Chapel. All women students of the University are urged to attend.

Sixteen Degrees Below
Says Weather Station
Sixteen degrees below, and the coldest morning of the winter, was the verdict of the University weather station according to the reading at 7 o'clock this morning, and this was also the minimum reading for the night.
UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS; FRIDAY AFTERNOON, JANUARY 3, 1919.
The records show this to be the coldest temperature since January 12 1918, when the minimum was seventeen degrees below. During the storm on Christmas week the mercury read two below. Both Wednesday and Tuesday nights were colder than at any time in December, December's lowest temperature being two degrees below. On Wednesday night was seen, and Tuesday three below. It was only two above at 7 o'clock Thursday night, and the temperature at its highest reading Thursday was ten above.
The snowfall last week amounted to seven inches and a little more than two inches was added this week.
Must Pay One Dollar For Tardy Enrollment
Students Entering Classes Must Produce Receipts Received At Business Office
All students who have enrolled later than Monday and all those who enroll Saturday must pay the dollar required for late enrollment or be withdrawn immediately from their classes according to Dean D. L. Patterson of the College.
"Each student is urged to get his receipt first in order to avoid loss of time in enrolling tomorrow," Dean Patterson said.
The dollar must be paid to Kari Klooz at the University Business Office in Fraser Hall, and the receipts must be presented to the advisors before enrollment will be permitted.
It is a University ruling that all students must pay a dollar if they enroll late and this requirement will be upheld in all schools of the University.
Late enrolments will be made

Catalogue to be printed
The annual catalog for 1918-1918 is being compiled and Registrar George O. Foster said today he expected to have the copy in the hands of the state printer some time this month. He expects to have the books printed in time to be sent to the state high schools before they close in the spring.

Nearly one thousand alumni of Western Reserve University saw service in the war, and nearly half this number were commissioned officers. Among the alumni in war service were Secretary of War Baker, and Myron T. Herrick, former ambassador to France.
No Student Directory To Be Issued This Year Say K. U. Authorities
Changes in Rooming Places And Unsettled Conditions Pre- rent Book
vent Book
No student directory \ ill be issued this year, unless University authorities change their minds suddenly, Registrar George O. Foster announced this morning after a conference with Chancellor Strong.
It was felt that it would not be wise to issue a directory t is year because of generally unsatisfied conditions and because of so many changes in students' rooming places. The students almost entirely and most of the faculty members are in favor of having the University publish the directory even if many changes have been made because it would list this year's students and could be used next year as well. The directory is sued in 1946 is still being used by or organizations and students.
Many propositions have been made by different student organizations to publish a student directory and sell it either at cost or at a slight profit for the benefit of the organization but University authorities do not consider private publication desirable. They feel that it should be left in the hands of the school for the benefit of the general student body.
The Woman's Pan-Hellenic, the W. S. G. A. and the Kansan Board have considered publishing a student directory at one time or another during the two years the University has been without one.

Prof. W. H. Johnson Plans New Church Bulletins
Century Sermonnettes to Be Feature of Weekly Paper of Presbyterians
Century Sermonettes, little 100-word sermons by lay members of the congregation, will be the features of a new kind of church bulletin that Prof. W. II. Johnson of the School of Education is to get out weekly for the First Presbyterian Church, of which he is a member. Each number of the bulletin is to contain one Century Sermonette by some member of the congregation who will be expected to use one hundred words of helpfulness, inspiration or cheerfulness from his own every-day-life experiences.
The Ohio conference of charities and Corrections held its annual sessions at Ohio State University Christmas week.
Dean E. A. Birge of the College of letters and science at the University of Wisconsin is acting president of the University since the death of Pres. C. R. Van Hise. The Board of Regents is considering the matter of selecting a president.
The bulletin is to be used the usual Sunday service program, the announcements and a directory of the officers of the church. It will not contain the customary platitudes and vague generalizations, mildly exercising everybody not to forget the heathen and be sure to be good. Indeed, the bulletin will leave the preaching to the pastor and will strive to awaken keener interest and cease ination in the whole congregation by news paragraphs of the church and its members.
Lieut. Harold Hall has returned from the University of North Dakota, Grand Forks, where he was a lieutenant in the S. A. T. C. He expects to enroll in the university this term. Lieutenant Hall is a member of Bata Theta Pi, Delta Sigma Rho, and Kansas Board.
Church bulletins usually are in the form of a folder of four small pages and with the first page given over almost entirely to ornamental job printing. Under Professor Johnson's plans the cover will come down to a few short lines as to title and will contain on the first page paragraphs about church folks and things that church folks are interested in.
Apparently the proposed bulletin is a new idea worth developing, for, except the program of services and one or two announcements, the average church bulletin is most excellently qualified for membership in the Society of Useless Publications.

Good Books Shelved For Lack of Binding By Busy State Printer
Reference Books Could Be In Use if K. U. Had Its Own
Bindery
There are 110,000 books and 44,000 pamphlets on the shelves of Spooner Library that are useless because they are not bound and can hardly be used until they are put in secure bindings so they can be safely handled. Almost all these volumes would be very valuable to students for research work if they were bound, put on the shelves and cataloged, say faculty members, but they are of no benefit to any one now because the state printer apparently has not time to bind them.
There is a state regulation which requires that all printing to be done for the colleges and universities of the state must be sent to the state printer. When this regulation was made it was said the state printer could do the work more cheaply than any one else. However, the state printer at that time was working on a commission, and therefore made more money by doing all the printing for the state schools. Now, however, for the state schools. Now, however, ary and has more work than he can get done, and most of the work that should be done for the University is not being done. If this regulation were removed the University could establish a bindery of its own, say library workers, and the work could be done here and finished so that it would be ready for use when it was needed and not several months later, if at all.
Blackfriars Make Plans For Staging Spring Play
Club to Reorganize Wednesday Night When First Meeting Will Be Held
The Blackfriars will reorganize Wednesday night at its first meeting of the year and will complete plans for an extended field of work for 1919.
When the club was organized two years ago, its aim was the presentation of early English plays in a manner as close as possible to that in which they were originally given the opportunity to play on that year. Last year "Riders to the Sea" and "A Pot of Broth" were presented.
This year the club plans to give a play late in the spring, and to work at its regular meetings. It will study various aspects of the drama.
The meeting will be in Room 215,
Fraser Hall, Wednesday at 7:30
o'clock, and all upperclassmen, grad-
uate students and staff are interested
in the work are invited.
V. S. Rader, c17, previously reported missing in action, has been reported killed in action November. Mr. Rader was a brother-in-law of Mrs. Ralph Rader, instructor in the department of chemistry. His home was in Wakefield.
Comforts For Patrons
Placed at Cafeteria
Rest Room Will Be Made a Commons Where All May
Several rocking chairs, a reading table and the accompanying reading materials are to be found around the fire place at the cafeteria for the convenience of patrons. It is hoped the place will be used as a resting place in a commissary, so that the University other gathering place for students.
The cafeteria is a student enterprise and its success will largely depend on the goodwill of its student and faculty patrons.
More than 300 persons have been served every day this week but larger rows can be handled.

She University of Nebraska is establishing a Reserve Officers' Training Corps to replace the disbanded S. A. T. C.
Editors of the Nebraska annual, the Cornhusker, are asking for freshman assistants, urging that the new students begin early to train for editorships on the publication in their junior year.
Three Courses Offered In School of Religion
The School of Religion, which has been conducted for a number of years by the University pastors, will be reopened next Thursday, with session each Thursday evening for ten weeks at Myers Hall, Westminster Hall, and at the Congregational Church parsonage. Class meetings will be from 7 until 8 o'clock.
The courses will be as follows:
"The Messages of the Prophets or
the Life of Christ," by Dr. Arthur
Braden, at Myers Hall.
"An Introduction to the Study of the Bible," by Dr. R. W. Sanderson, at the Congregational parsonage, Twelfth and Ohio Streets.
Plain Tales From the Hill
"Ten Studies in Fundamental Christian Convictions," by Dr. F. G. Dill Westminster Hall.
That Spooner Library is known as a "joint" to certain of the head librarians, was recently disclosed to members of the student body. Not only that, it is also known that one of the librarians lost thirty pounds of candy on a bet. Of course it is all right for the library force to bet—but to bet and lose is a different thing. Especially when the bet is on a sure thing.
Weak hearts often result after a severe attack of the Spanish influenza, according to the physicians of the country. Perhaps this can account for the numerous engagements and cases that have become so prevalent on Mt. Oread since the opening of school in October.
Men students who are addicted to the habit of peeking in at the windows at the various sorority houses should remember that foot prints are left in the snow.
Just as soon as a reporter begins in the department of journalism he is instructed to begin every story with the most important fact. A cub was given the assignment to cover the fire at the Sigma Nu house. When the story was turned in it began, "Because one of the Sigma Nus went to his room to study, the fire was discovered."
With the drop in temperature and the shortage of gas at all the eating places, the professors on the Hill were forced to listen to the old stall from all the late arrivals in their classes about having to wait for breakfast.
Announcements
First try-outs for the Dramatic Club play will be held this afternoon at 4:00 o'clock in Green Hall. They will not be continued Saturday morning as previously announced, but will be continued next Monday at 8 o'clock

Cook Crises Hit Frats When Chefs of S.A.T.C Ask Army Mess Wages
Diana of the Dishpan Now so Affluent She Quits Work
Greek Steals Greek's Cook
Phi Psis Said to Have Tried to Bribe Sorority House Waiter
Whether it is true that the Beta are trying to bribe the Theta dishwasher or that the Thetas plan to kidnap the Beta cook, the kitchen crisis among student house organizations has become acute. Fraternities, sororites and boarding houses are having extreme difficulty maintaining competent kitchen personnel. The condition is said to be still another hardship resulting from the late and unlamented S. A. T. C., where cooks were paid $2 a week.
Gamma Phi Beta has been eating at the University cafeteria several days since the house cook calmly announced that she guessed she'd quit until a thaw. The hill was too steen to climb while the snow was on the ground, she said. All appeals could not change this resolution, so while the sorority steward and house committee are examining possible applicants for the job and trying to pick one who will stick, the sisters collectively and singularly breakfast, lunch and dine outside.
SITUATION WAS GRAVE
At the Kappa a faithful cook broke her ankle. The place was held open for her but the injury mended so slowly the cook decided she would take a long vacation. The sisterhood of the golden key dish greeted the situation until they tried to replace her with a cook of the same quality.
Acacia had four cooks in one week before finding one who could handle the job. At the Sigma Chi house the dear old brothers all came back to a cookess house and for a day or two had to take chow with Mister Lee or Friend Brick or the cafeteria. The Kappa筷 kitchen held several days while cookie and assistants were joyous in K C.
THE PLOTTING PHI PSIS
At the Alemannia house, where pure Castilian has taken the place of gutteral Hunees, they tell a cook tale as long as an undertaker's bill. They sure have had their kitchen cares at that house. One sorority says the Phi Psi have tried to steal their waiter.
As an indication of cook scarcity since the S. A. T. C. disbanded and the frat houses began opening a blond beauty from Sigma Nu, who was calling at a sorority house heard the following half of a telephone conversation when that sorority house was seeking a cook:
"Our cook has quit and we understand you want such a place. Would you care to come up on app see us. We would be nice to see the face and would be quite comfortable."
“Oh, no we didn't have a fuss with her. She just quit.”
"No. She said she didn't have to work. That she had enough money to rest a year or two.
"What kind of a disposition has our mother?" Why the idea? She's perfectly sure.
"What, you want $22 a week?"
You're crazy.
"Well, you may have been paid that in the S. A. T. C., but this is no army. You know—
"No, you are unreasonable. You had to cook for a hundred and fifty or two hundred men in barnracks. Here you would have to cook for twenty-five women. You wouldn't have a third the work."
Sororites and fraternities say the foregoing is typical. They say, too, that as soon as the army pay affluence has disappeared there will be a full supply of cooks again. Meanwhile the faculty families, those faculty families depending entirely on their salaries, have become so accustomed to do without help that they never expect to have even a bowing acquaintance with a cook person again.
Prof. W. J. Bamgartner will make first of a series of lectures for the Senior Christian Endeavors Society of the First Presbyterian Church next Sunday evening at 6:45 c'clock.

The Daily Kanaan aims to picture the university of Kansas; to go further than merely print the news by standing for the ideals the University of Kansas is to be clean; to be cheerful; to be charitable; to be serious; to have serious problems to wiser heads; in all, to serve to the students of the University.
K.U. NEEDS HONOR SYSTEM
FRIDAY, JANUARY 3, 1919
For several years there has been a great deal of resentment on the part of University students because instructors stand watch during examinations and because of the general supposition that most students receive and give help in written examinations whenever there is an opportunity. Students have said that if the question of honesty were in their own hands, they would observe a code of honesty, but that as long as instructors act as marshals, they will give them something to do.
The chance is now here for students to co-operate with the disciplinary committee in controlling the situation regarding dishonest work, and it is probable that K. U. may conduct its examinations under the honor system within a short time. Chancellor Strong, at the request of University women, has called a mass meeting to get the opinion of all the women on the Hill, so that actual measures may be taken to eliminate cheating.
Cheating is a student problem, and should not be left to the disciplinary committee. Students should express their opinions on the subject of establishing the honor system, which has been found almost invariably successful in other institutions, and should also have something to say about the penalties for dishonest work.
Every K. U. woman will have a chance to publish her opinions on the subject at the mass meeting Monday. Every woman who is interested in the University will attend the meeting. The natural inference will be that those who do not attend do not care whether K. U. students do their work honestly or not.
"Future of gas warfare rests with peace treaty," says news report. We hope so—but don't put the agreement on a "scrap of paper." Pin it to the point of a bayonet.
REMINISCENCES OF THE WAR
Outward evidences of military life and its hardships are no longer among us, but vivid memories of their late service for their country are engraved in the minds of the members of the S. A. T. C. army. Even as time passes, we will be reminded of their experiences. We will hear of various feats of daring often, perhaps oftener, indeed, than we would care to hear them.
K. U. men back from France or discharged from different camps in this country will sit back and remain silent, and will realize their own inferiority, when tales of the S. A. T. C. at K. U. are recounted for them.
The sergeant who made the men stand at attention fifteen minutes in the middle of the night, with the wind blowing through the barracks sixty miles an hour, and the thermometer registering ten below, is good for half an hour of vivid conversation any time. The reminiscences will always be exact, and the veterans will be careful to give the correct figures. And the men will rise up to verify each other's statements.
"This military discipline didn't go with me," is bound to be another favorite. "I have a way of saying what I think, and when the top sergeant jumped me, I told him where to head in, K. P, or no K. P."
The man who spent more days in the guard-house than out of it, and the one who passed up a lieutenant down on Massachusetts Street with every one looking, will become popular heroes. There will doubtless be several of each variety. And the sergeant who was "busted" because he couldn't take anything off the commissioned officers cannot avoid being the next president of the Men's Student Council.
Reminiscences of the war are not so bad, at that. They are a change from the old regime, when men talked about their heartless profs, and their home towns, and their girls, whenever they congregated to study for a quiz. It has been alleged that returned heroes sometimes exaggerate, and K. U. veterans will keep up their end of it. The mornings they went without breakfast will increase in number as time passes, but who cares? Reminiscences are invariably entertaining.
Men returning from the training camps are quickly resuming their former habits—among them the tendency to take an avid interest in University politics. Senior men at K. U. came back to find a woman's class ticket already nominated. It is unnecessary to say that the men will soon announce their own ticket. When class elections resolve themselves into a campaign of the women against the men, they are more than interesting.
Will freshmen who competed on S. A. T. C. football teams be eligible for three more years of football? That is a question which the big eastern universities are going to have to settle during the next few months. It now looks as if this year's playing would not be counted against them on the ground that there were no freshman teams this fall and the varsity elevens were not real varsity teams. This is the view taken by the Western Conference.
Women knitters have been ordered by the Red Cross to stack their needles. Good news for the sheep, surely.
Campus Opinion
To The Kansan:
This Column is Open to all Students of the University
The old question of grades is with in again, and the professors have arisen in grades that were determined binding to their usual individual system.
The history prof says that no student deserves an A, because it signifies exceptional brilliance not to be found in mere mortals who attend his class. The mathematics instructor works out a careful arithmetic problem, and gives five per cent of his students the exalted grade. If his figures show that two and one-half students deserve B, he hesitates and then, being in doubt, doesn't. The kind-hearted language teacher makes a New Year's present of A and B to the whole class in advanced comp.
It's a great system. Grades are presumably intended to mean something, but under the present order, anyone who wishes to know what his various grades mean must know the interpretation of the system that each of his professors use. That is perhaps possible, but it is slightly inconvenient. It would be impossible for anyone else to come to a correct understanding of the student's relative standing in his work.

KNOWLEDGE
Written by K. U. Students and Lawrence Pastors
Concentration is the first basic quality of success in gaining knowledge. By using this key students are enabled to work without distraction, to think without interruption, and to bring together all their forces upward. Concentration economizes effort, and conserves nervous force.
Perseverance enables one to pursue an aim undeterred by events that may be thrown in the way. If knowledge is to be gained students must not hesitate but persevere; if the road is not straight plan to go around.
The knowledge jewel may be secured by the use of three keys. They are concentration, perseverance and common sense.
The third key is common sense. College of all places needs men and women who possess and use this quality. It is composed of perception, memory, reason, and good judgment.

Wrist Watch Sticks But Khaki Disappears
He isn't a namby-pamby, sissified,
mollycooked fellow just because
there's a wrist watch nestling under
his coat sweat. That delicate bit of
feminism that has been deplored so
lustily by the brave who styles himself
a "man's man" is no longer a
mark of a girlish disposition.
When it is considered that the wearer of the ornament only a few weeks ago might have held down a dignified second lieutenancy—anything but a feminine job—who could accuse the wearer of being sissical with no regard to the awe that should be inspired?
There's hardly a man who wears a wrist watch who does it because he believes it harmonizes with his eyes. They all do it through force of circumstances. In the army, they had to. It was the proper thing for an army man: watch chains were prohibited and likewise fobs; and it is impossible to take a watch out of one's pocket and steal a look at the time while standing, theoretically, at attention.
When the soldiers dotted the khaki and denned the cits, the wrist watch kept its old place. That's why so many full-grown men on the Hill consult their wrists instead of vest pockets when they come in late to class. And it's best not to Josh them and call them "dearies," for they might have been members of the hard-boiled S. A. T. C.

Kansas Basket Ball Squad Has Three Old Men Out For Practice
Miller, a Star at Forward Last Year, Returned This Week
With the Ames series only two weeks off, the K. U. basketball team is gradually rounding into form. The return of Howard Miller, one of last season's forwards, has increased the prospects of a winning team. Beginning today, Coach W. O. Hamilton will give the men chalk-talks so that the men will not lose any possible time learning the signals. This calls for a Varsity practice at 7 o'clock, with the freshmen turning out at 7:30 o'clock.
7:56 o'clock
Miller's return gives the team three old men, Matthews and Bunn being the others. Bennett and Harms are the only last year's freshmen in school, but several other men have turned out to try for a place on the squad.
In the practice Thursday night, Bennett and Mason worked at the guard positions, Matthews at center, and Dunn and Harms at forwards, Miller, Marxen, Lashley, Desmond, and Fredericks made up the second line-up against the freshmen. Both games resulted in victory for the Varsity, although a 20-point handicap had to be overcome.

Jimmy Lighbody, a former University of Chicago track star, at one time attempted to make an athlete out of the "Clown" Prince, according to the Daily Illini. After Lightbody was graduated from the University of Chicago, he took post graduate work at the University of Berlin. His athletic prowess attracted the attention of the Imperial family and Lightbody had the Crown Prince and other sons of the former kaiser in his athletic classes.

Ohio State University Meets Water Problem
The water situation on the Hill is acute. So far nothing has been done to relieve the condition. Ohio State University meets the situation in this way:
The value of providing pure water to the students of Ohio State and the inhabitants of Columbus is estimated to be the saving of 119 deaths each
Prof. Charles W. Foulk of the department of chemistry of Ohio State considers the money value of pure water provided by Columbus in improving the health of the community is $1,188,000.
In an address before the Engineer Club of Columbus, Professor Foulk estimated the value of human life at $5,000 and the loss to the community by one death from typhoid fever at $10,000. This figure includes doctor's fees, medicine, loss of work and other items for the ten or fifteen cases which do not end fatally for every one which results in death.
Estimating the 1918 population at 220,000 and the death rate from typhid at 54 per 100,000 Professor Foulk stated that the pure water prevented 119 deaths annually. At $10,000 each, the saving in money is $1,188,000.
L. E. Call, professor of agronomy in the Kansas State Agricultural college, has been invited to go to France to become specialist in grain crops for the army overseas educational commission.
The people of Columbus are said to save $35 per family each year, by the softening and purifying of the water.
Professor Call's duties would com prise choosing teachers among the soldiers, prescribing textbooks, and exercising general supervision over all the work in his field.
Merchants in the university district about the University of Illinois, recently decorated their windows as for a Home Coming Day, to help students promote a "Come Back" scheme to induce S. A. T. C. men to continue their college work.

Y.W.C.A. Annual Budget For 1919 Announced: $1,800 From Students
No Membership Dues for Organization—Members Pledge According to Allowance
To raise a budget of $1,800, the annual finance campaign of the University Y. W. C. A. will be carried on from January 14 to January 21. This is the only call for money made by the Association this year. The membership campaign held in November was only for signatures as members. There are no prescribed membership dues, and all money is pledged during the finance campaign
"We have $75 already, gifts from last year's seniors," said Ruth Guild, chairman of the finance committee. "There are 600 members now, and they will be canvassed during the campaign week by twenty-five teams of workers. All members are urged to pledge leave one month of years until election. But that does not mean that other persons on the Hill are not allowed to contribute. All who are interested may do so."
The budget of the Association for 1919 is as follows: For foreign secretaries, $150; for Y. W. C. A. headquarters, $100; for salary of general secretary, $1,000; for committee expenses, $175; for miscellaneous $200;
for rent and supplies, $100; for conference expenses, $75; total $1,800. An increase of $200 in the salary or the general secretary is being made this year.
It was only because they couldn't get anyone else that Swashhem & Co. had taken on young Softleigh as a commercial traveler.
The workers on the team will meet Wednesday afternoon to plan the campaign, Dean F. J. Kelly will speak.
AND HE PROBABLY DID
All went well for a few weeks.
Then on one journey he ran short of money. After much puzzled thought he wired to his firm;
"Have run short of cash. Please write by return."
The morning brought no reply. Softleigh began to get desperate. Then, in the afternoon, he wired again; in the money, How shall I act? Were reply.
This time he had not to wait long. Within a couple of hours he received a yellow envelope. Eagerly tearing it open he read:
"Act as if you were broke."—Mineapolis Journal.

Homer Talbot Resigns To Accept Better Job At Princeton University
Head of Municipal Reference Library to Leave About February 1
Rats; Rice Diet Hurts K. U.
University Now Seeking Man to Fill Mr. Talbot's
Homer Talbot, in charge of the municipal reference library at the University and secretary of the League of Kansas Municipalities, has given his resignation to Chancellor Strong and will leave about February 1 for Princeton University. Mr. Talbot has accepted the position of secretary of the New Jersey State
A. F. C. M.
- HOMER TALBOT
League of Municipalities and will have his office and headquarters in the famous Princeton University Library.
FATHERED CITY MANAGER PLAN
Mr. Talbot came to his position here five years ago. Previously he had been an editorial writer and reporter on the K. C. Star, and had been in charge of the municipal reference library of Kansas City. Mr. Talbot received his A. B. degree at Wisconsin University in 1910 and his master's degree at the University of Kansas in 1918. He has been active in movements for more efficient and better government throughout Kansas since he became connected with the University.
Mr. Talbot was largely instrumental in the drafting and adopting of the bill for the optional city manager plan of municipal government which is now in use at Wichita and at Eldorado. He also has pushed the issuing of municipal bonds in small denominations that thrift might be encouraged among home folks of small means and that home money might be kept at home. Various forms of activities seeking a wider home rule in Kansas, and activities against the efforts of public utilities to lessen municipal ownership powers have been among what Mr. Talbot calls his more or less obtreperous and successful works.
“Of course, I regret leaving because of the breaking of some very dear associations here,” Mr. Talbot said, “but the chances for wider usefulness and appreciation are so much bigger in the new place. I couldn't refuse it.”
K. U. FUTURE BRIGHT
"The University of Kansas has a great future before it, if it is can get rid of its present system of forcing its faculty to live on rats and rice salaries, perhaps the lowest paid in almost any American university. I speak from experience and very intimate observation. There should be a University of the very highest standing here, but it will never be attained until the present rats and rice diet policy of the state is abrogated."
H. G. Ingham, secretary of the correspondence study division, said no successor had been appointed. He said the department would be held for a man to fill Mr. Talbot's place.
NUMBER 50.
Mr. Talbot's work at the University has given the state wide and favorable advertising and many state and city governments have sent investigators to Mr. Talbot's office to study movements he has fathered and put into successful operation. He has been offered frequent municipal jobs, but has declined them and recently refused a call to the faculty of the School of Government of the University of Texas.

S.A.T.C. Men Received December Pay Friday
UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS, MONDAY AFTERNOON, JANUARY 6, 1919.
"Between 200 and 250 S. A. T. C. men received their pay for the month of December Friday afternoon in the Adjunct's office in Green Hall," said Capt. H. W. Hatch today. "Men who were discharged from the S. A. T. C. but did not return to school before coming back to work will have to wish to have their pay forwarded to them but who did not leave 'heir address should do so at once.'"
Only seventeen of the officers have received their discharge from the S. A. T. C. The medical officers who were assigned to temporary duty here have left but the others have not been notified to do so by headquarters.
When asked what his plans were,
Captain Hatch merely said, "I am
awaiting orders."

Director McCanles Calls for New Band Try-outs
Tryouts for University band will be held Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday nights of this week from 7:30 to 9:00 o'clock, in Room 502 Fraser Hall. These will be the only chances for tryout. S. A. T.

McCanles, by either seeing or telephoning him, so that they may be placed in the line-up. Mr. McCanles's telephone number is 2230 Red. This is the second phone Director McCanles will have organized this year.
Grover C. Loud assistant professor of journalism at the University last year, has been honorably discharged from the S. A. Capitol University, New York, and has accepted a position on the Boston Post.
Prof.-Lieut. Loud Joins Staff of Boston Post
Mr. Loud resigned from the faculty last year to enter the training camp at Plattsburg, N. Y., where he received his commission as a lieutenant.
Blackfriars Club will meet Wednesday, January 8, at 7:30 p. m., in Room 213, Fraser Hall. A short program will be given. All upperclassmen, graduates, and members of the faculty are invited. A business meeting will follow, which all old Blackfriars are urged to attend.
Announcements
Miss Katherine Duffield, general secretary of the Y. W. C. A. will be at her office every morning from 8:30 until 12 o'clock except Saturday and Sunday. Office hours in the afternoons and Saturday will be by appointment.
At a recent meeting of the American Association of University Professors, Dean F. J. Blackmar was elected a member of the executive council.
Knox is practically assured of having an Officer's Reserve Training Camp. More than 150 men immediately signed up for the organization.
Dean Blackmar Honored
The University of Washington, through its administration department has established a system of visiting nurses for the women of the schools. The object of this system it to supervise the health of the women students. All cases of illness—no matter how trivial—are to be reported and will be looked into by the nurse in charge.
Chancellor and Dean Find Value in Honor Plan for Examination
Healthy Student Sentiment to Enforce Honesty Necessary, Says Kelly
That the establishing of an honor system at the University would be a fine thing for the University if the students can handle the proposition and make the majority of individual students feel the responsibility of doing work is the opinion of Chancellor Ellerby and Dan F. J. Kelly.
In the opinion of Dean Kelly, the honor system should first be properly defined. "It is not honor in the true sense," he said, "if the other students make a business of tattling on the offender, but each should consider it his duty to treat others as he would have them treat him. Again, if one student is not honest with himself and others, the students, as a body, should take it upon themselves to chastise the offender."
Chancellor Strong would have the honor-system taught in the home. Children should not be encouraged or allowed to take advantage of their parents or playmates. The system would not be fair to the honest if the lishonest were not restrained by the healthy public sentiment.
The honor-system is a social problem and should not be confined to the advanced schools, he said, but should be started in the primary schools and developed with the progress of the person.
A meeting of the women of the University will be held this afternoon in Fraser Hall, under the auspices of the Y. W. C. A., to discuss the honor system.
Doctor Nelson President Of Kansas City Section Of Chemical Society
Professor Allen and Doctor Dains Also Officers of the Organization
Prof. C. Ferdinand Nelson, professor of physiological chemistry, was elected president of the Kansas City Section of the American Chemical Society, and Prof. H. C. Allen, professor chemistry, was elected secretary and treasurer, at a meeting held in Kansas City, December 21. Dr. F. B. Daine, professor of organic chemistry and Rudolph Hirsch of Kansas City were elected councillors. C. J. Patterson of the Ismer-Hincke Milling Co. of Kansas City was elected vice-president. C. F. Gustafson of Kansas City, was elected assistant secretary.
The American Chemical Society was established about fifty years ago and is now one of the largest societies in the world having a membership of about 10,000. The society publishes three journals, "The Journal of the American Chemical Society," "The Abstract Journal," and "The Journal of Industrial and Engineering Chemistry." There are twenty-five or thirty sections in different parts of the country. The Kansas City Section which meets alternately in Kansas City and Lawrence has about 175 members. The society is controlled by a Board of Councilors, two members being elected from each society.
The American Chemical Society has taken active part in war work. Three Germans who were honorary members of the society because of their prominence as chemists, Peter Norman, Email Fischer, and William Ouvray, did so. The society partly because they were enemies and mostly because they were the main instigators and experimenters of chemical warfare.
Graduate Club Plans Mixers and Lectures
The Graduate Club has made plans for a series of lectures to be given every third Friday in Westminster Hall. Chancellor Frank Strong will deliver the first lecture at 430, Dunlane Street for other meetings is as follows:
Tarman Singh, January 31.

The club held a business meeting at Thursday.
Popularity Contest Replaces Beauty Race For 1919 Jayhawker
Candidates May Be Nominated As For Class Election
Instead of the old Beauty Contest this year, the managers of the Jayhawkers, announced this morning that the contest would be a popularity contest and will be held as any class election, it will take place January 20. "There has been so much complaint about the way that the Beauty contest has been run," said Bob Lynn, manager of the contest, that the new plan has been adopted to eliminate all chance of graft."
The contest will start out new, today. All nominations for the popularity contest must be turned in to Mr. Lynn or Lynn Herschey by Tuesday night. The list of candidates will be announced in Wednesday night's Kansan. The candidates will be nominated by their friends and every one will be run who is nominee for the competition organizations on the Hill will be given an opportunity to select the candidate they want to run in the contest. The candidates for the beauty contest may run if they are nominated.
The names of the candidates will appear on the ballot as the class officers names appear on class ballots. The class officers must be for whom he or she wants to vote.
The Jayhawker sales force began its campaign with renewed energy this morning. Every one who intends to vote for his or her favorite candidate must have a receipt for the Jayhawker by January 19.
According to the new plan, the men who were in the student army training corps, but who have now withdrawn from school will not be eligible to attend, and they will not be allowed to give their votes to any one to cast for them.
According to the new plans, a list of the subscribers will be at the polls on election day, January 20. As his name will be marked off the list.
Every cent that has been invested by individuals for space in the Jayhawker will count for one vote. No organization picture will be counted and no vote can be cast on such pictures.
On the day of the election, two members of each of the student councils, faculty members and the management will be at the polls as election judges.

The press conference will mention that "Cusmus" last spring and the University campus is to be the stage."
"Cosmus was beautiful," said Professor MacMurray, who will have charge of the presentation, "but the Electra' will be even more beautiful. This is going to be absolutely one of the biggest things at K. U. next spring."
Plain Tales From the Hill

My parents told me not to smoke, I don't.
Or listen to a naughty joke, I don't They make it clear, I mustn't wink
At pretty girls or even think About intoxicating drink, I don't.
To flirt or dance is very wrong, I
don't.
Wild youths chase women, wine and song. I don't.
song, I don't.
I kiss no girls, not even one,
I do not know how it is done,
I know what I think I have much fun,
Well—I don't.

When you take Her to the cafeteria to dinner. She doesn't know whether to take everything as she goes down the line or whether to go slow and skip a few. To relieve Her mind you might remark as you enter, "I'm starved, let's take everything on deck," or if you are not quite so flush, "nothing looks good, does it?" Chances are the will take you up.
For some time this question has been bothering some of the men on the Hill. At the present time which is the most popular, cooks, the business manager of the Jayhawker, or the guy that is running the beauty contest? In view of the number of dinner parties and other social affairs that have been given for the two managers and the Vault Fair manager by the candidates and their friends, it seems that these two men are even more in demand for the time being that the best cook on Mt. Oread.
The Lawrence Fire Department made a hurry-up run to one of the rooming houses on Tennessee street yesterday afternoon in answer to a (false alarm). One of the rooms, a women to be sure, saw steam rising from the roof and thought the house was on fire.
As a result of Saturday night's Varsity dance, several members of the student council are wrecks. At the very last minute, Haley failed to appear, and it was up to the W. S. G. A. to chase down some music. Every man or woman, at the dance, who even looked like he might play the piano was hailed, and at last a life saver was found who played until Haley arrived.
The philosophy student wandered into class and looked at the ice-covered windows.
In order to avoid all embarrassment which might follow Bill Perry, who celebrated the New Year's arrival in Kansas City, he left town under an assumed name in order to keep his real name out of the papers.
"Gee," said he, "Why don't they heat this class room? I never car sleep unless I'm comfortable."
When asked for his name for the city papers by the two society reporters who make the trains, he used the name of one of the upperclassmen, but he failed to be because he used the name of one of the celebrities on the Hill who happened to be well known by both reporters.
Faculty members and every one look alike to the police authorities in Lawrence during the stormy weather. The home of one of the professors in the department of journalism was visited Wednesday afternoon by one of the members of the Lawrence police force.
In preference of 'tellin' it to the judge at 8 o'clock tomorrow mornin' the "prot" immediately set to work scooping the snow off of his walks.

Dean Blackmar Urges Council of Defense To Give Up Job Soon
Believes State Should Return to Peace Basis As Soon As Possible
Work to Old Organizations
Advocates Large Appropriations For State Welfare Necessary in Future
That the State Council of Defense should cease to be an active working body in Kansas as soon as possible is the opinion of Dean F. W. Blackmar of the Graduate School at the University of Kansas, one of the members of the Council. Organized for strictly war purposes, it has been a success, Dean Blackmar believes, in promoting agriculture, in increasing the food supply, in handling labor questions, establishing Home Guards, or adding the American Protective League, the Food and Fuel Administrations and other phases of war work. Its chief service has been the creation of public opinion, and the fusion of knowledge about the war.
Dean Blackmar would not oppose the continuation of the council until the business for which it was organized is finished and he urges a small appropriation to cover expenditures for the last two years. The work of the council has been done by volunteers and unless an appropriation is made many members will have to pay certain necessary expenses from their own funds.
The work which has been done by the council during the war can be done in peace times by other state organizations: the State Board of Agriculture, the State Board of Agriculture Duluth-Lake County State Agricultural College, the University, the State Federation of Woman's Clubs, and others.
"Thetheoretically I could conceive of a Kansas Chamber of Commerce composed of men interested in the public business of the State which should be alert in promoting the public welfare along industrial economies and social lines," he says. "If such an organization could exist from a confederation and will large public spirit—which means sacri-fice—great good could be accomplished in the promotion and support of public institutions in Kansas."
"Just flow there is a campaign for good reads with a proposition of a bond issue of sixty millions of dollars. Perhaps a system of good roads at the present would do more to advance political, social, economical, educational and industrial interests in the State than any other achievement that could be named. It would be a great factor to develop real democracy.
"A sixty million bond issue by a State out of debt for the development of home democracy is not much compared to the millions of money and the thousands of lives spent for the promotion of democracy in Europe. I am glad to see Kansas beginning to talk in large figures. It did not know where it was until the war along and asked great thanks to it. While we pour out millions for Europe let us be willing to spend other millions in keeping Kansas on the map. True democracy begins at home."
"The people of the state should be united on such problems. Possibly a State Chamber of Commerce would do the work."
General Wood Invited To Speak at University
H. G. Ingham, secretary of the correspondence study department, telegraphed General Wood today asking the general to visit the University at his earliest convenience. It is hoped that General Wood can be here January 9, and talk to the university on that date.

SUBSCRIBE GRACEFULLY
When you make up your budget for January, don't forget that there is one more campaign for funds. The only call for money to be made this year by Y. W. C. A. is coming next week. Members of the organization have no regular dues, but are asked now to contribute according to their ability.
Giving according to your ability does not mean replying casually to the worker who asks for your pledge, "Oh, I'm sorry, but I haven't any money left after the Red Cross Drive and all the rest of them."
Instead, it means passing to think over your real financial status. It means balancing a contribution to the Association against a few clairs and picture shows and taxi bills. It means deciding whether you value your momentary pleasure over the permanence of the organization's work not only on the Hill but throughout the world.
A REAL GRIEVANCE
The Red Cross is a lovely alibi, but are you an alibi sister? If so, wake up and get out of that little-esteemed class.
If the men of K. U, were really polite and wise they would make 8:30 o'clock classes at 8:10 o'clock on snowy mornings. Then paths would be cleared for the women. Instead the women plod through the snow and wish that the men in France would return so that they would receive more attention.
NOT QUITE THERE
Enough has been said about the work women have done during the recent war to last for generations. And too much cannot be said. The various lines of work which women have successfully carried on while men were in the country's service are remarkably numerous. No one has appreciated this more than the women themselves. They believe in giving credit where credit is due, and are proud of their own industrial and economical achievements which is entirely justifiable.
Another step in the ladder to complete equality with men remains to be ascended. There is no woman at the Allied peace table, and the only women who are connected even remotely with the whole affair are the wives of the men who will determine the world's future. Mrs. Wilson is in France, but her mission is ornamental, rather than practical. The plain truth is that women do not figure in affairs of international importance.
This state of affairs need not discourage the most militant suffragist
or the most feminine feminist. No one anticipates another war within the next two generations, but if there is one, it is safe to wager that women will sit at the next peace table. If they are delegates to a peace conference, it may be safely assumed that they will have something to say. Some day this situation will exist, but such an attitude of the world toward women can only be reached gradually.
HIDING THE LANDSCAPE
HIDING THE LANDMARK
Yes, we still have posters on the bulletin boards—old, unisightly posters advertising lectures which have already been given—posters boosting W. A. A. members who have been elected, and posters of meetings which are over.
If there is anything new happening on the campus, wouldn't it be well to tear down the old posters before placing the new ones?
The old posters detract from the interest of new ones and often cause confusion. They are past history and should be given the customary ceremony.
OLD WOOD CARVINGS
If some of the arm rests from the chairs in our class rooms should become buried and petrified, and in hundreds of years be unearthed by our descendants, some astonishing facts would be revealed. When you go to class tomorrow take a glance at your chair; perhaps upon it will be found such things as J. B. C., K. K., Kansas, 1018, and any number of Greek combinations (although freshmen have suffered much because of that inherent desire to spread broadcast the initials of their Greek frats.)
If all the books in the world should be destroyed in the ages to come, and if the languages of the world should be lost, the finding of these few petrified arm rests would give our descendants something to work on, something to study, something for men to spend their lives on, and even cause the professors of ancient languages to go forth in search of these tables. The entire alphabet could be recovered (if enough arm chairs were petrified), and not only modern English would be given back to our descendants, but the Greek alphabet would return to once more harass the student.
modern scholars go in search of ancient Egyptian hieroglyphics which have given us so much of ancient Egyptian life, and so in the centuries to come, men may go in diligent search of petrified arm rests (perhaps buried in the limestone of Mount Oread) and again recover the knowledge of the twentieth century.
GET OUT AND VOTE
More interest should be shown in K-U. elections as only a small per cent of the students have the habit of voting at the annual elections and thus allow the machines to control University politics. The voting does not represent the University sentiment. Every election has it's alleged crookedness and a larger vote would stop much of the "shrewd managing" as the political heads class it.
The candidates are dominated and elected without protest. The majority of the students fail to take any noticeable interest in the outcome. All classes and schools will hold elections on the same day and every loyal K. U. student should consider it his duty to vote at this big election and have a voice in the student rule of the University.
"Higher education for women is one of the latest developments in Japan," writes the editor of the Tokio Asahi. "Although Japan possesses two institutions called 'Women's Universities,' they are only technical colleges (meaning for the instruction of teachers). They differ greatly in scholarship rank from the men's universities. The imperial university opens its doors to women students, the Tohoku Imperial University, at Sendai, and has two or three girl pupils. Recently three women have been graduated from that institution with the degree of M. A.-Detroit News.

THE WAR ON PROPAGANDA
The broader problem is replete with difficulties, and it will be the part of the indifferent and the pacifistic to oppose each and every measure proposed. But if nations are to live equally and honestly, as do upright neighbors, that most subtle and snakelike of all German weapons, propganda, must be fought to its lair and ended.
New legislation is unquestionably needed of a novel and broadly conceived character. The virus of propaganda must be analyzed, defined, and prohibited by the strictest of laws, with severe penalties for their breach. The essence of the evil is its underhandness. The parallel with advertising matter carried in a newspaper or magazine as reading matter at one end is the opposite, a nation's conduct to a public and avowed publicity campaign. The peril lies in the secret propaganda that German cunning brought to a high state of efficiency. Whether or not the Bolshevik forces are now using similarly secret weapons, the need for action.
for legislation, is urgent. The future cannot be provided against too soon. In the consideration of this whole question there will arise first of all the
cannot be provided against too soon. In the consideration of this whole question there will arise first of all the matter of deporting every naturalized American who has played an active part in such enemy propaganda. The system must be ended for all time. To get rid of the interned aliens alone will not begin to meet the evil. Many of the most vicious German propagandists took out their citizenship papers as a precaution against such a contingency. Deportation must be the universal punishment of every secret propagandist, and it must be applied against those whose false Americanism has been already revealed.
Therefore, the present move of the Department of Justice, sound and needful as it is, must be regarded as only the first of a series of precautions. Secret propaganda must go the way of secret diplomacy. The latter fosters war through the trickery of a few. The former works not less effectively through the subtle poisoning of the many—New York Tribune.
One who knew Russia before the chaos says that in those days Mark Twain was well known to the Russian reading public, and Longfellow hardly less so. Walt Whitman, Howells, and Jack London were widely read, and so were William and Ralph Waldo Emerson, although one may guess that, as elsewhere, many knew London who were unfamiliar with Emerson. It is a hopeful thing to remember, for it affords a real hope for the future Russia. Literature is an index ofacter, and it is a fairly safe prediction of what will happen in which a large number of people enjoy the advantages of Tom Sawyer and Huck Finn will very long be overwhelmed by the barbarian and ignorance of its Bolshevist element—Christian Science Monitor.
MerelyMental Lapses Jokes and Alleged Jokes
At the time of the Russian Revolution there were not a few people, both in Europe and in America, who in their enthusiasm declared the event the greatest of the war. If greatness is to be judged from its capacity for constructiveness, there can be no doubt that those people, and they are legion on both sides of the Atlantic, who regard the closer bonds between the two Anglo-Saxon nations which this war has wrought as an event second to none since the sailing of the Mayflower, have good reason for the faith that is in them. No more exalted claims are made on the future than those made by the men who invoke the constructiveness of Anglo-Saxon unity—Christian Science Monitor.

"I want a little help in the way of a suggestion. I am going to the French students' masquerade ball tonight, and I want a distinctly original costume—something I can be quite sure no one else will wear. What can you suggest?"
The costumer looked him over attentively, bestowing special notice on his gleaning, bald and shining head. "Well, I'll tell you," he said, thoughtfully why don't you sugar your head, though as a pill?"—Mineola's Journal.
"My ideal husband," said the girl who had been reading novelettes, "must be a strong, silent man, full of grit, and able to bear the heat and burden of the day without finching; one who will not hear a word said about me, and will never utter a word against me himself."

A railway bridge had been destroyed by fire, and it was necessary to replace it. The bridge engineer and his staff were ordered in haste to the place. Two days later came the superintendent of the divisor. Alighting from his private car he encountered the old master bridge builder.

"Bill," said the superintendent—and the words wolvered with energy—"I want this job rushed. Every hour's delay costs the company money. Have you got the engineer's plans for the new bridre?"
"I don't know," said the bridgebuilder, "whether the engineer has the picture drawn yet or not but the bridge is up and the trains is passin' over it."—Minneapolis Journal.

Relief Commission Saves Lives of Hungry Belgians
People of Belgium Enjoy Better Conditions, Hoover Reports
There has been no loss of life from starvation in Belgium and Northern France, and the results of undernourishment during the occupation can be stamped out if America continues to send food. This is the report that Herbert Hoover, chairman of the commission for Relief in Belgium has sent to the Commission headquarters in the United States after a careful personal survey of the whole field.
The survival of the population of these territories, while a full quarter of other peoples under German domination have died of famine, is due to the work of the Commission, he says, which for four years poured great lines sufficient to keep the people above the margin of starvation.
The gratitude of these people, Mr. Hoover says in his cablagem, "is unbounded and embarrassing." They no longer need or desire to get food through charity; but owing to the systematic destruction of their textile industries they must still depend for clothing to a considerable extent upon the people of the United States.
Mr. Hoover's cable message was in part:
"During the German occupation there was an effective control not only of distribution by the Commission for Relief in Belgium but also of the native food supply. With the retreat and demoralization in transport and government before the re-establishment of the Belgian Government, there ensued a period when there was bit little control over foodstuffs."
"The Belgian Government has established a food administration and problems are being taken in hand just as rapidly as possible under the conditions. In the meantime it is possible with sufficient money, to buy almost any kind of food in Belgium. But more than one-half the population of Belgium today than an innoxious family, and they are practically dependent upon the distribution of controlled imports by the Commission.
"Because of the supplementary meals furnished by the Relief Commission and the many children's institutions which have been largely supported by the magnificent outpouring of world charity, the children have come through this period in a state of health perhaps even better than could be expected."

Seven Football Men From Kansas Make Honor Valley Tean
JANUARY 6,1919.
Sport Editor of Kansas City Star Announces Mythical
Icam
S. A. T. C. Affected Choice
Many Good Players Unable to Compete Because of Military Training
The University of Kansas has seven men on the honor Missouri Valley football teams chosen this year by the sport editor of the Kansas City Star, with the advice of all of the conches and managers of the Missouri Valley. These teams, which are chosen each year, always stand as the official honor teams of the Valley.
Mott was chosen as third man at center on the honor team and did well in all games. This was his first year with the Crimson and Blue team but he was an all-state man with the Baker teams a few years ago. Kansas did not place a man at guard, as on the team here were new and experienced. Jones of Kansas won first choice for tackles. The big follow play a star game in all contests with the peer of the Valley in the line. The coaches of the Valley were unanimous in their selection of Jones for honora.
It was impossible to choose the men in the usual manner this year because of the disruption of athletics caused by the S. A. T, C., and besides several of the best men in the Valley were sent to training camps and were unable to play in enough of the games of the season even to win a letter. Lonborg was one of the best players in the Valley, but was sent to an O. T, C. and unable to complete in many games.
Lonborg was chosen as second choice at end because he was at an O. T. C. and unable to take part in the games of the season. Dust made the all Valley team last year and looked as good this year. Under normal conditions he would have landed on the all-Valley team for a second time. Stem Foster was second choice for the quarter position. Foster won the Aggie game through his brilliant running. In normal years he would have been first choice for that place, but Simpson of Washington made first. Simpson would not have been eligible but for the S. A. T. C.
Bunn and Ruble as half backs placed and Heizer played at full. The men were new and did good work in their games. They should be good for a better place next year.

To Free Men from Gym Only in Necessary Cases
Physical Disability and Work Will be Only Causes for Exemption
Exemptions from physical exercise this year will be granted to men only when absolutely necessary according to information from W. O. Hamilton's office. Physical disability and work are the only possible means of obtaining exemption.
Petitions for exemptions on physical grounds are referred to Dr. Nelson at the University Hospital, If Dr. Nelson sustains the claims they are recommended for exemption at the office of the department of physical education. The recommendation is then acted upon by a board, composed of W. O. Hamilton, Dr. G. E. Coghill and Prof. A. J. Boynton.
Claims for exemption on account of work are also referred to this committee, after the student has filled out a card containing his daily schedule from 8 in the morning until six at night.
Nearly all Students HaveChurchPreference
The students in the University of Kansas have wide and varied religious preferences. Out of two thousand and attendants at the University there are eight creeds and but 27b non-church members. The Presbytian and Christian churches have the largest membership approximately three hundred students belonging to each of these two denominations.
multiple.
Methodists, Baptists, Episcopalians, and Catholics, each claim about two hundred members of the student body. United Brethern, Evangelical, Christian Science, and Lutheran, are the preference of from twenty to fifty students.
Besides these churches, memberships of a few students are enrolled Presbyterian, Friends, Universalist, in the Unitarian, Mennonite, United Reformed, Adventist, and Jewish churches.

Organization to Discuss Place of College Women in War Reconstruction
Its effect on social life of the institution is undoubtedly good. It is cosmopolitan in its interest and reaches a larger variety of girls than most other of our organizations for women. It gives a chance for social life to many girls who otherwise have little opportunity in that direction. It has an excellent effect upon the intellectual life of girls because is stands for honest work. Its influence on the moral and spiritual life of the institution is well known and of the highest character.
The first regular meeting of the Y. W. C. A. of the new year will be held in the Hostess House at Myers Hall, Tuesday afternoon from 4:36 to 5:30 o'clock. The subject of the meeting is "Road Makers," dealing with the position of the college woman in war reconstruction work. Miss Sara G. Laird of the department of English will be the speaker.
The regular Y. W. C. A. meetings have always been held in Myers Hall prior to this fall when they had to be held in Fraser Chapel. The committee on religious meetings is very glad of the change because the formal place of assembly is much more suitable for the purposes of the meetings.
So far as I know no state university in our country would consider for a moment allowing this valuable organization to disband or become useless. If people had any doubts about the value of the Y, M. C. A. and Y. W. C. A. the war has cleared up practically all of them.
Chancellor Strong has written to the Y. W, C. A, telling of work the organization is doing. He says: I am glad to have an opportunity to say that in my judgment the University Y, W, C. A, is one of the most important student organizations the institution has.
Three Dyer Brothers Need Barrels Badly
Thief Robs Home of Former K U. Men of Wearing Apparel
Eugene T. Dyer and John A. Dyer, former students of the University, were victims of a thief with a seeming preference for military accoutrement at their home in Kansas City recently. An army officer's fur-lined field coat, belonging to John A. Dyer, and a navy peacock, the property of Eugene T. Dyer, as well as a coat and overcoat belonging to another brother, James, were part of the loot.
Eugene T. Dyer was editor-elect of this year's Jayhawker, but resigned to enter the navy. He was enrolled in
the College last year, and is a member of Phi Kappa and Sigma Delta Chi. He had been in training school at the Great Lakes Naval Training Station until his release a few weeks ago. Mr. Dyer will not return to school this quarter, having accepted a position with the Kansas City Star. His brother, John A. Dyer, was a pre-medic the first part of last year. Last summer he attended the officer's training camp at Fort Sheridan, Illinois and later was sent to the Field Artillery Officer's School at Camp Zachary Taylor, Kentucky, where he received a commission as a second
Nevin to Church Forum
On Community Music
Arthur Kevin of the University of Kansas was the season's initial speaker at the Westminster Forum at the Westminster Congregational Church, Kansas City, Mo., Sunday night. The meeting, commencing with a community "sing" conducted by Professor Nevin, was addressed by him on "Community Music in the Curtains." His experience in leading songs at Camp Greath, III, have兴趣间 anecdotes. Many a soldier lad in France will remember him for the songs that cheered the hike on a drizzling day and made the last, long mile possible.
Mr. Nevin has two sons in the American Army in France. Although Mr. Nevin could not cross the Rhine himself, his Indian opera, "Poia," entered Berlin some years ago, the only American opera ever produced there. Last year, two of his operas were accepted by the Chicago Opera Association.
Mr. Nevin is a younger brother of another famous American composer, the late Ethelbert Nevin, author of "The Rosary" and "Mighty Lak a Rose."

NUMBER 5:
Woman's Mass Meeting Votes Solidly to Adopt Honor System at K. U
Committee of Representative Students From Each Class Is Elected
UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS, TUESDAY AFTERNOON, JANUARY 7, 1919.
Discussion Was Lively
Plan is to Be Given Publicity to Create Favorable Public Opinion
At the woman's mce meeting Monday at 4:30 o'clock in Fraser Chapel to consider the adopting of the hono system in the University, the women voted unanimously in favor of the system and agreed to elect a representative member from each class to act as a committee to confer with the disciplinary committee, the Men's Student Council, W. S. G. A., Y. M. C. A., and various other organizations.
Esther Moore, chairman of the meeting, explained that the meeting was called at the request of Chancellor Strong and gave a brief summary of discipline in the University. In 1914, a student committee investigated the sentiments of the University regarding the honor system, and reported that it would not be advisable to try to adopt it at that time. Then in 1916, a disciplinary committee was appointed which had entire charge of disciplinary matters since that time. The committee now feels that the students should take a more active part in the matter.
FEW CONDEMN THE MANY
In the discussion that followed various honor standards were discussed; it was brought out that while perhaps faculty members are rather noticeably suspicious of students during exams yet they have grounds for their lack of faith in the students because of the cheating of a few.
Margaret Young expressed a beet, while false standards of honor may differ yet if each student goes deep, enough to express her real sentiment.
Helen Peffer said, "I can see no reason why the honor system can not work here and I believe it will if it is ever adopted. I attended for two years a school where the honor system was such a vital part of the tradition of the school that no one ever mentioned it and no one would have dreamed of even violating the confidence placed in him by the institution. The honor system did work in a school of six or seven hundred there is absolutely no reason why it will not work here. We must create such a strong public opinion for it that no one will ever think or opposing it."
RAPS NOTEBOOK COPYING
"I think the practice of copying notebooks is quite as despicable a form of cheating as there is," said Mary Burnett.
"Those who give help are just as guilty as those who receive aid," said Mary Samson. "There are some who would not think of receiving help but who neither would think of refusing to answer questions asked by friends during a quiz. One is cheating quite much in one instance as the other."
Arline Griffiths believes that the system should be worked out with the help of the men, since this is a coeducational school and the men and women should work together in any affecting the whole student body.
One woman expressed the opinion that women are as a rule more honorable than men anyhow and for that reason the men should be required to take a stand either for or against the honor system.
OLD ENOUGH TO KNOW BETTER
OLD ENOUGH TO KNOW BETTER
"In the journalism department we never think it anything queer at all for a professor to give out the quiz questions and then leave the room," said Mary Smith. "It frequently happens over there and no one would ever think of cheating. There can be no double standard. When a person is old enough to come to the University he knows very well that in a course of action, one thing is right and any other thing is absolutely wrong."
The following members were elected by acclamation. Senior, Etheth Moore; Mary O'Meara; Mary Samson; sophomore, Mary O'Meara; freshman, Jesse Martindale.
Miss Smith suggested the plan, whereby the committee was elected.
Three S.A.T.C. Men Sent To Fort Riley Hospital
Three men of Section A, S. A. T. C., were sent to Fort Riley today for treatment. These men, Tom Carlton Loland Spink and Harry Engle, will remain at Fort Riley until the can pass their discharge physical examinations and then will be discharged from there.
There are still two S. A. T. C. men in the infirmary here with mumps and measles who have not received their vaccine, usually be released within a few days.
The only other of the S. A. T. C. nen who have not been discharged ire six truck drivers and two medical nen who will be kept here as long as their services are needed.

At University of Kansas
Flier, One of First to Cross Enemy Lines, Tells of Experience
Being one of the first forty aviators to cross the German lines was the experience of Leut. V. A. Hower, U. E. enrolled Monday in the University.
Lieutenant Hower was over-seasoned more than thirteen months. He was a bomber, receiving his entire training in Europe. Going over with a hundred other cadets, he was put in a large bombing school, and received a commission as first lieutenant at the front.
It was in the "unlucky third, smashup, that Lieutenant Hower was injured. In the first two, only the ship was damaged, but the third time, the plane in which he and his pilot were riding, went wrong at an altitude of about two thousand feet. The plot found in necessary to cut out his engine entirely, and make a forced landing. Both men knew they were in for a smashup and prepared for it as well as was possible. The result for each proved to be very light considering the probabilities Lieutenant Hower cut severely about the head and received a broken arm and dislocated wrist. He was in several hospitals in France for three months, and afterwards transferred to ground work in a headquarters office back of the lines.
As the bombing raids of the ninety-sixth Aero Squadron were among the first to be made by American forces in France, they were all given considerable mention in Gen. John J. McCain's official report to the government here.
Lieutenant Hower expressed his surprise at the lack of co-operation between the air service in this country and that over-seas. He said the aviators are forced to learn many things all over again, before they are at all useful as fliers.
Section A Pay Mailed Today
The pay for the men of Section A of the S. A. T. C, which has not been received by the men in person is being mailed to them today. There the 900 men who will receive their last S. A. T. C. pay by mail. The payroll for the men of Section B has not been completed. Their checks are to be mailed to them soon.

"Why don't you hurry? The poor boob down there waiting for you!"
The telephone rings - Silence-Then-
"Tell him I've gone to Kansas City
and that I won't be back until Monday morning."
"This is too tight to wear when you're going to dance with him. I honestly believe he dips farther every time I dance with him."
In a resigned voice—"I haven't had a date for so long that I'm already in the cellar gang." Answer, in a stage whisper, "Heaven knows, dear you can have mine if you'll take it." A little later—at the head of the steps—"Well, farewell, girls, think of me tonight in my misery!"
No dear students, "Tub" Malloy, who has been here visiting, is not in the cavalry. It was in this branch of the service that he tried to get, but after the examining officers put him on the scales, they decided that there never was a horse built for "Tub."
One Freshmen girl has suggested that there would be more cases of lonesomeness permanently cured if the Y. W. C. A. would give the girls big brothers instead if big sisters.
The old proverb, "Whistling girls and crowing hens always come to some bad end," has changed according to the various members of the faculty. One professor has given this interpretation to it, "Whistling students and blank minds, show they're not of a studious kind."
One of the Profs on the Hill asked of one of his students, "What classes have you under me?" "Three, Si," have you under me: "Three, Sir," he said. The Prof with a serious air, said, "How can you stand it?"
Fergy in Economics I, talking on the subject of $$ utility, "A diamond satisfies a very intense longing."
Speaking of conservation of goods, and also of the agitation for the wearing of uniforms, it has been observed on the Hill that a number of the men on these cold days have worn their citizens' clothes. And that isn't all, either. Some of the girls have threatened to wear them also.
One of our S. A. T. C. youngest lieutenants who has been rushing a certain young lady of last season's Beauty Contest fame, was discharged and returned to "cits." in waiting for his call that evening the young lady said, "Oh! I bet he wears a red tie."
Ex-Instructors do Research
EXINSTRUCTORS to Research James Ramsey, formerly an instructor in the department of Chemistry spent a few days in Lawrence visiting. He has returned to Fort Worth, Texas, where he is associated with C.W.Seibel where he is associated structurer here, and one of Doctor Cady's chief assistants in the research work conducted by him for the government relative to argon gas.

Major-General Wood To Speak Thursday At First Convocation
Man Who Trained 89th and 10th Divisions Here for First Time
Has Long Service Record
tion
Will Talk on Some Phases of War and Reconstruc-
Definite word was received today by H. G. Ingham of the extension department, from Maj-Gen. Leonard Wood that he would be here to speak at a general convoction of the University students on Thursday afternoon promptly at 4:20 o'clock. The university will lecture it but it will be a discussion on some live subject, probably some phase of the war or reconstruction.
General Wood has been stationed at Camp Funston ever since the cannonment was ready for service. He was in command of the 89th Division until it went overseas and is now in command of the 10th Division, which is still at Funston.
He has never been at the University although last year he spoke in many Kansas towns. An attempt was made last year by the extension division to have General Wood come here but it was impossible at the time.
General Wood has been associated with the United States Army almost continuously since 1886, when at the age of 25 he was appointed assistant surgeon in the army from the state of Massachusetts. Later he was promoted to captain surgeon. He was commander of the famous Rough Riders regiment—the First U. S. Volunteer Carrier American war, having as his lieutenant-colonel the late Theodore Roosevelt.
later promotions have given him the rank of major-general. General Wood holds the Congressional Medal of Honor, awarded him March 29, 1918, "for distinguished conduct in the campaign against Apache Indians in 1886 while serving as medical and line officer of Captain Lawton's expedition." He was chief of staff in the Army from 1910 to 1914. He is a graduate of the Harvard vard medical school and holds the degrees of Doctor of Laws from Harvard, Williams College, and the University of Pennsylvania.

Paper Delivered by Airplane
Paper Delivered by Airplane The Wilson County Citizen, published at Fredonia, introduced a very novel plan of paper delivery last week when two visiting aviators put on a series of stunts for the people of the county. John Gilmore, editor of the Citizen, published a special edition of the weekly and carried it over the county with the aviators, leaving one in each farm yard. The Fredonians claim the distinction of having the first paper carrier deliver his issues in an airplane.

ROOSEVELT—THE MAN
The death of Theodore Roosevelt has aroused in the American people deep grief at the loss of one of the nation's truly great men. The nation grieves not only for the statesman but also for the cultured, educated man, the author, the nature-lover, the leader, the man of common likings. Nor To the United States alone in its mourning; the entire world has felt the touch and influence of this mighty man and pauses in remembrance of his life and its many deeds.
Whether one agrees whole-heartedly with the political policies of the ex-President, whether one endorses none of his policies, or whether one supports some of his ideas and discounts others, still he stands in admiration and respect for the man in other of his many interests.
University students should remember the Theodore Roosevelt was a college man. His degree of Bachelor of Arts from Harvard was supplemented by LL.D., conferred by eleven universities, D.C.L. from Oxford, and Ph.D. He was ever a student and reader of varied types of literature. His Pigskin Classics that he took with him on the African trip are memorable as a discriminating choice of literature.
As a contributor to literature, Mr. Roosevelt ranks high. His many books portray the experience of a student, an active observer, a thinker, and a do-er. The range of subjects is remarkable. His nature works dealing with hunting, outdoor life, and wild animals, are valuable commentaries on large experience from living under outdoor conditions. Additional to these are books of history, lives of notable men, and essays. Especially to be mentioned are Mr. Roosevelt's essays on American problems and ideals.
His views as expressed in articles in newspapers and magazines have had profound influence over the country and have helped shape many policies. His personal qualities of masterful leadership made him achieve great popularity, this popularity, however, being variable because of his decided views on important questions. As a contribution to varied phases of the world's interest, the life of Theodore Roosevelt can be pointed to with pride by the American nation.
AN UNFAIR RULING
According to a ruling of the University Senate, womens' basketball teams are not allowed to play on any other court than the one in Robinson Gymnasium.
Two years ago the champion team of the University was allowed to play
games at Ottawa University and other institutions. More interest was shown by University women in this short at that time than ever before.
Eight members of the team, accompanied by the coach, made the trips to other towns. Their conduct was all that is expected of University women.
Last year when the subject again came up before the Senate, faculty members who were formerly opposed to women playing outside games, approved when they realized the propriety with which the trips were conducted, and that such contests served to stimulate interest in the sport. The supporters of the subject argued that trips made by eight women of the team, properly chaperoned by their coach, were certainly no more objectionable than the glee club trip made by fifty women to Camp Funston last spring. Instances of University students going unchaperoned to dances in Kansas City and Topoka were also compared with the basketball trips.
For a time it appeared that the women might again enjoy games with outside teams. But one woman on the faculty said: "We have no authority over students attending dances in other towns, but this matter 68 basketball games is one which we can control. Therefore we should prohibit it."
It was prohibited. Because this happens to be one of the things which the Senate can control, the women are not allowed to play games on other courts. Even a practice game on the Haskell court, which would be excellent practice for both teams, is not allowed.
Inter-class games only are allowed. The women are interested in them, but with a little encouragement on the part of the Senate, basketball would take the place it rightfully deserves as the foremost sport for women.
Is this subject one over which the Senate can exercise absolute control, or can it be reconsidered?
110,000 books and 44,000 pamphlets on the shelves of Spooner library are useless because of lack of binding. This is a grave matter. But in these days of war-time economy, think of the thousands of girls who are "shelved" because of lack of new and suitable covering.
If you are unable to get in on one of the Hill's political gangs, form one of your own and deal out the pie in your own way. You can be the boss of a party if you have the courage to organize it.
WATCH YOUR STEP
Lieutenants are returning every day from Arkansas, Montana and even worse places. They return to take their places in society, places they rightfully held when they left here not long ago. But the joy of their return is almost entirely destroyed because they do not understand the new style of dancing. They have not had an opportunity to keep up.
The next step is perfectly logical, because by this time you are quite out of breath, so you stand still and rock back and forth until you have recovered from this exertion. You will probably be crippled in the morning, anyway, but these rest periods will help.
The new dances, however, are very simple if you understand the system. The first principle is that of indecision. Never know exactly what you are going to do next or the effect it spoiled. Start to take a step to the side with one foot and then suddenly change your mind and take eight or ten steps on the other.
Always point out clearly to your partner that unless she rests her head on your shoulder firmly, it will be impossible to get the best results. Then go ahead and do anything you want to, just so you don't do the same thing twice, and you are guaranteed a success in the dancing world.
It is very simple! Proceed lieu tenants!

DON'T BE A DRIFTER
Discovered by Readers of the University Daily Kansan
Don't be a drifter! Breast the stream
And struggle for a worthy dream.
Be one of those with standards high
Who dare to do and dare to try.
Too many merely drift along,
Helpless when danger's wind grow
Tossed by the currents here and there
Held in the eddies of despair;
Bruised by the rocks they might evade
Were they all not too lightly swayed.
Don't be a drifter! Shake a plan and have some purpose as a man. Travel around the world to Go without a guiding star, Swayed by the faithless whims of
But in the distant set your goal
But in the distant set your goal
But in the distant set your goal
The shoalhes and the coves beware.
Too many harques are broken there.
The rocks and tangled branches he
To catch the dirtwood floating by.
But he who fight against the stream
Shall some day reach his port of Dream
Don't be a driver' join the few
Who seek life's real tasks to do.
Strike out where deeper water flows.
And breast the stream with imam
People are all about us: We can scarcely walk in any direction that we do not meet them.
PEOPLE
It's important to know people, just for the sake of skill necessary to avoid some and to encourage others to a reasonable and beneficial contact.
People exist largely for the sake of being known. If this principle were not inherent in them there would be no use of their being around any one.
To know people it is essential that we know ourselves. Also, to know ourselves we must know people.
It was necessary, however, to make people more or less interesting, and so the qualities and feelings and emotions and sentiments have been placed in people in different proportions. The excitement of these proportions them depends entirely upon finding what these proportions are—life.

ON THE RETURN OF A BOOK
LENT TO A FRIEND
I give humble and hearty thanks for the safe return of this book which having endured the perils of my friend's bookcase, and the bookcases of my friend's friends, now returns to me in reasonably good conditions.
I give humble and hearty thanks that my friend did not see fit to give this book to his infant as a plaything, nor use it as an ash-tray for his burning cigar, nor as a teething ring for his mastiff.
When I lent this book, I too was lost: I resigned to the utterness of the long pages. I never thought to look upon its pages again. But now that my book is come back to me, I rejoice and am exceedingly glad! Bring hither the fatted morocco and let us rebind the volume and set it on the shelf of honor: for this my book was lent, and is returned again.
Presently, therefore, I may return some of the books that I myself have borrowed.—Life.
RESPONSIBILITY
If you were to ask us for a definition of responsibility, there are days when we would be inclined to tell you that it is something that almost everybody avoids. People seem to be afraid of it. They like to pass it on to someone else. They dread to make decisions and stand by them. Now that is a mean sort of business—that being afraid of consequences. Our idea of a man is one who dares make up his mind upon a point, and then is willing to go ahead and be responsible for it. We mean a man who will go ahead and say: "I think this is right. I have studied this and believe I ought to do it, and I can depend on my judgment. I am willing to take the consequence." He is the kind of a man you find in a great position making a great success—American Boy.
WHAT NATURE BUILDS WITH Cellulose is Nature's great structural material. It is the essential component of the cell walls of plants, and as such the basis of all plant tissues. So its properties are of interest and importance to the lumberman the maker of cordage,the spinner adn weavers of cotton,the workers in flax, hemp, jute and ramie, the pulp and paper makers, and to all those whose business it is to utilize this remarkable material that still remains the product of nature's secret laboratory.
This is only a hint of the bewildering possibilities and actualities of cellulose. Things happen when you begin to treat it chemically. It takes kindly to nitric acid and becomes gun cotton and smokeless powder—after which it becomes less kindly. Less highly nitrated, it functions as soluble cotton, colloid, celluloid, and it appears in lacquers artificial leatheres and a host of other things. Treated with caustic soda and carbon bisulphide, it is transformed into viscose, and later comes upon the market as artificial silk, of which 20,000,000 pounds were produced in 1913.
Acetic anhydride transforms cellulose into cellulose acetate, first cousin of the nitrate, but less temperamental, being nonexplosive and harmless as a paper doll. From it have been made artificial silk, nonflammable films for moving pictures, windows, aviators and airplane wings. Acetic anhydride cellulose acetate is a war commodity, but with the release of raw materials following a righteous peace there will come a lively flourish in the cellulose acetate industry—"Chemistry in Overalls," by Arthun D. Little in Minneapolis Journal.
THE CHEAPER
Let it be understood at once that it is not appropriate in what follows to cast the feminine casual aspersions on the masculine taste in masculine neckwear. That belongs in the realm of the humerist, not the -psychologist. All those who bestow neckties at Christmas time, men and women alike, are to come under the scope of this analysis. If any distinction is made it will be that a more searching scrutiny will be directed toward the masculine giver of neckties than the feminine.
THE CHRISTMAS NECKTIE
One, sitting alone on Christmas morn with the colorful tokens of many loving friends and relatives spread out before him, was led to musure upon the innumerable deductions of which the display might be the source. It was not so much that the sartorial taste of the recipient of the silken scarfs was called into question, though there might be confessed an inner tremor at the thought that this radiant exhibition, dimming Joseph's coat and even rivaling Solomon in all his glory, was the aggregate conception of disassociated minds of what he would choose for himself should he make a personal visit to the haberdasher. Rather, the musing led
to the conclusion that here was an exemplification of that theory of suppressed desires. The fond father resolves that his son shall have advantages that were withheld from him; the loving mother makes willing sacrifices that her daughter may be attired in a style not possible to her own girlhood; the millionaire founds a school that shall open to boys that book of knowledge that was sealed to him. Each and all of them are seeking to gratify, by giving to others, a surprised desire of their own lives.
So with the purchase of a Christmas necktie. If it be a man, when he purchases in his own behalf his eyes are drawn to the lines where are displayed the purple, the lavender, the crimson and the green mixtures; the nationality grips him; and he goes attired, as to his cravat, in decorous blues or solemn black.
But always the latent love of barbaric display remains innate, and unconsciously he ships its leash at the moment of buying a tie which some other man must wear. Not because he believes, necessarily, the other man would like it does he buy it, but because, if he dared brave the gibes of family and friends, he would wear it himself.
And the man who receives it on Christmas morning would, in his secret heart, like just as much to wear it, but he's a coward too—New York Tribune.

Sergt. Paul E. Haworth Recalls War Incidents Of Gallipoli Peninsula
Professor's Son Home on Furlough After Four Years With Australians
"I didn't join the Australian army because of the wrongs done to Belgium, I joined because I wanted the experience and adventure," said Sergt. Paul E. Haworth of the 4th Battalion of the First Expeditionary Forces of the Australian army, who is spending a furlough with his parents, Prof. and Mrs. Erasmus Haworth.
"I was in California about four and half years ago, when the war broke out. I decided to join, but had great difficulty in doing so because I was unemployed. However I succeeded without using naturalization papers.
"The Australian troops are rough and ready and fairly good hearted. They have done better work in the war than any other troops unless it be the Canadians or Americans—and the Americans have done noble work since they have been in the war."
GALLIPOLI BATTLES BLOODY
Serrt. Haworth was in the battle of the Landing at Gallipoli, on April 25, 1915, and also the Battle of the Lone Pine, August 6, of the same year. After three weeks of fighting, at the Landing he was the only one left to represent a section of thirteen. Out of a company of 200 men, three had not been wounded the Battle of the Lone Pine, Serretta Haworth was wounded in this battle and was in a hospital in Evernt for a month.
He was then transferred to the ordinance department and sent to France for active service for three months. From here he was sent to London and has been there for almost two years.
FOOD SHORT FOR FOUR DAYS
FOOD SHOW FOR AT Gallipoli
"Upon landing at Gallipoli we were given one day's ration, but it had to last us four days because it was impossible to get any further supplies up to us. For four days the only food we had was that which we could find in the packs of those who had been killed," continued Sergeant Haworth. "We were a month without any bread and the only water that we had was obtained by digging about three feet in a dried ravine and allowing the dirty, muddy water to seep in. We boiled this and put tea in it so it would not taste so bad.
Sergeant Haworth's furious expires in February and he will return to England. From there he will have to go to Australia to be demobilized.
"Egypt is a wonderful place; Australia is all right; France is pretty; London is wonderful; but after all there's no place quite like Lawrence,
Legal Clan's Call Startles Quiet Hill
Mount. Oread again has been informed why they are, they are, they are the K. U. Laws. Students were startled into recognizing this fact when the quietness of the Hill was broken Monday morning by the yells and songs of the Blackstone followers.
The "Jayhawk, Jayhawk, Jayhawk"
; Rock Chalk, Jayhawk, double L B" sounded as a sort of a clan call to unite the members of the clan in mutual endeavor and to notify the other schools that the legal men were back.
The Laws were back not in a scattering few but in enough force to make a real noise - enough to make people stop a while and listen before going on to a discussion of the place of Greek Art in the School of Pharmacy.
The School of Law, has appeared rather subdued; subdued, that is, in comparison to itsILITY of former years. Enrollment has been small and conditions not conductive to pep. Old men are coming back now and new men are entering the school; the school will have an enrollment of more than fifty this term. Hence the Laws feel they are entitled to give the drowsy Hill a shock by cheering, these yells, many students declare, being the first ones heard from the lawyers this school year.
Then the Laws have organized and elected officers, and this would naturally lend some pep. But foremost of all is the fact that Uncle Jimmy Day is nearing and this invigorates the judicial-minded students for "it's all because of him, our dear old Uncle Jim, that we are, we are, we are, we are, we are, the K. U. Laws."

K.C.A.C. Believes Boxing Should Have Prominence In College Athletics
Organization Plans Gathering of Western University
Stars
Boxing should be brought to the front in colleges since the war is over according to Director Reilley of the K. C. A. C. and tournaments between colleges and universities should be arranged the same as any of the other college sports. The men have been taking boxing lessons in the training camps and have gotten some good from boxing as a recreation.
The University of Kansas is the first school of the Valley to start teaching the men the art of self-defense under an instructor and other schools of the valley and of the states will probably fall in line in a short time and enable the amateurs to hold tournaments similar to athletic meets of other sorts which are so popular. According to Director Reilley the men should be awarded letters for their work in the ring and accorded the same honor as a gridiron hero.
The K. C. A. C. is considering a plan of holding a series of smokers and inviting amateur boxers from the various colleges of the Missouri Valley to enter him. A real college tournament will be held at one of the Blue Diamond smokers' shows; the program demands of interest, the game to warrant such a show, according to the K. C. A. C. director.
Pete Gross is working out with the men at the University in their gym classes daily and invites any of the men who have been in training camps or have had previous boxing experience to come out and help train the new men and get them off to a good start. The boxers are showing interest in their sport and Grosl will time giving the advance men and the new men the proper amount of time needed for successful work.
"Dutch" Lonborg Returns
To Basketball Squa
Varsity Team Gradually Req gains Its Normal Number of Men
The Varsity basketball squad is reaching its normal number with the return of new men every day. At the practice Friday night, "Dutch" Lonberg, who was on the squad last season, was out in uniform, and worked out for the first time. He is the fourth old man to return. Miller beat him back by one day, and Matthews and Bunn have been out since the beginning of practice.
Coach Hamilton was called away at noon Friday and was unable to be present to give the chalk-talks on signals. These will be taken up on tonight. However a snappy practice with the freshmen resulted in defeat for the first-year men. Bunn, Harms, and Miller worked at forward, Matthews at center, and Bennett, Mason and Lonberg at guards.
Sport Beams
Sports are coming back to their own in the east and critics are pushing the Olympic games, and international competition in boxing, wrestling, and swimming for amateurs.
Scoop Olson, a Lawrence man, is out of the game with a bad ankle but expects to get back with the freshman five shortly. Olson was a star on the Lawrence high school team here last season.
Pete Gross is giving the men in the gym classes the benefit of his ring experience and has asked good boxers at K. U. to come out and help with the new men.
The Kansas basketball team is without a captain this season because of the absence of *v* Scrubby Laslett who is still in the service. Bunn, Matthews, and Miller are all letter men and eligible for the honor.
The Kansas tennis team will be strong in the Valley this season with Matthews and Uhls out. Uhls is at Rosedale but can come over as last year for practice. Kansas had little trouble winning the Valley honors last season on the court.
Baseball will come into prominence all over the nation in a few weeks. It is an interesting and brainy game. K. U. students would like to see baseball revived in the Valley.
The basketball game planned by the Cornhuskers to take place at the University of Illinois on anuary 10 and 11 was cancelled January 4.
With the "du" knocked out and the S. A, T. C, K. S, A. C is outlining a program of athletic entertainment for its members throughout the new year. Handball is to be handled on a large scale. The club will get the tournaments in motion this week. The players will be classified according to their ability, into three classes, A, B, and C. Two hundred members are expected to enter the class.
Cargill Sproul Writes Of Seeing Belgian King While on Paris Leave
Former Kansan Man Now in Aviation Concentration
Camp
News of many K. U. men in France is contained in a letter received from Lieut. Cargill Sproull, A.B. '18, dated December 8. He is stationed at Isoudum, France, the huge aviation concentration camp of the A.E.F. air service, called the "mud hole of France."
Lieutenant Sproul was a prominent track man, a member of the Kansan board and a Phi Kappa Psi. He tells of twenty-four hours in Paris, seeing the Belgian king and queen, and many people who came to speak to people. Extracts from his letter are;
"I have had a little trip to Paris, and it is a great old village, full of life, now that the war is over. The new sights, together with the old ones, make a lot to see in a few hours. I saw a lot but even at that I saw only a small fraction of the city.
"Passee from here to Paris are very hard to get, but I went up to Colonel Gingham and talked him out of twenty-four hours. That means, exclusive of travel time. It is only four hours's run by express train, and three hours' time they used the plane, king and queen on parade—some crowd and jam there. Rooms in Paris are as scarce as dry spots in Issoudum.
"Just after getting off the train, I went to the American University Union, then to a large cafe—the Cafe de Paris—for lunch. As I sat down I noticed a captain across from me was John Dykes, a Phi Gamma Delta from K. U. He had been wounded in a fight with an enemy couple of hours together, in which we learned a lot about the other boys, for he was in the St. Mihiel drive.
"From the minute I landed in the city until I pulled out I was on the go except for a few hours' sleep. I got there at noon yesterday and left at noon today.
"He was busy, so I hiked out to see some things and shortly I heard some one yell out, 'Hey, Cargill! Imagine such a thing on the streets of Paris near the Place de l'Opera! Isn't it a small world? This was Sam Pickard of Lawrence, a Sigma Nu at K. U. He and I had a big time. He is a flier, just back from the front, and was shot down twice.
"Then we ran into Jack Gillette, a K. U. Phi Delti. After visiting with them for a time I went to the University Club and met L. B. Flinton, a Phi Psi. He is a captain in the Marine Corps, stationed in Paris. He has a car there, so we spent some time together.
"We organized a K. U. party and saw some of the sights of Paris. Paris is some town for the night owls. We took in as much as possible, but of course we missed a lot no doubt. We saw, however, some of the big cafes, theaters, hotels, and such other interesting things. This morning I got up bright and early to see the Place de la Concord, the Louvre, the Palais Royal, and the captured war material on display. Also the parks, buildings and monuments along the Seine.
"I forgot to mention seeing the Belgian king and queen near the Place de la Louvre and the Rue de kivelli yesterday afternoon. What will Paris be like when President Wilson hits it? As I look back I find I made good use of that twenty-four hours. Paris is crowded with Americans, mostly Americans, and prices are sky-high.
"I plan to run down to Limoges next week-end to see Captain Elliott and some of the other K. U. boys who are stationed there with base hospital No. 28. One of the boys has written me that Doctor Elliott is now a capitan.
"Another K. U. man came into camp today. He is Herman, a Sigma Chi.
"I expect to be kept busy this week flying above the fog and in the low clouds."
A Message and An Appeal
In the closing days of the most momentous year in the history of the world, I want to express to the people of the State of Kansas the appreciation of the State Director and all County Chairmen for the splendid co-operation in the dissemination of the lessons of thrift and saving and the translation of these lessons in the purchase of Government War Savings Stamps. We may be a little short of our quota but we will continue to work with the United States. Had it not been for the serious crop failures in the larger part of our State we would undoubtedly have sold more than the amount assigned to Kansas.
The War is over, victory is ours, but it could not have been won without the magnificent work of our boys over there, and the equally willing work of those who stayed at home.
In order to achieve an orderly readjustment of War conditions it will be as necessary for people to save and invest in Government securities for the next year, as it has been for the past year.
May I not appeal to the chairmen in all the sub-divisions of the State organization to continue in the good work of keeping the necessity of further saving before all the people, and making sure that they are benefited by bringing about the fruits of peace gained through victory.
Kansans have been among the first in the hearty support of the Government and let us be the last to discontinue the work of reconstruction.
P. N. Gorbsk
Gratefully yours.
State Director.
On Other Hills
John A. Moyer, director of the department of university extension, Massachusetts Board of Education, enlisting the following letter to students:
"The cessation of hostilities does not mean a cessation of our efforts in every branch of endeavor, as some might be inclined to believe. Efforts greater than before will be demanded of each of us in the huge task of adjustment if we continue to do our bit. Not only is trained help needed for rebuilding of the devastated region of Belgium and France and for the reorganization of Russia, but it is needed also in our own beloved land, were the activities of war must be transformed to those of peace. Our students have also their after-war responsibilities to the department. Studies can now be resumed with a will.
"It was easy to work and to sacrifice as long as the war continued—easy for all of us who knew what disaster and allied failure would bring us. But the work of reconstruction is not so spectacular, not so dramatic, and its aims are easily lost sight of. There will be much for each one of us to do in the great work, the work of bringing about 'better than before the war' conditions, and each of us, now of all times, should be preparing himself for the greatest possible service.
"Education is of the utmost value in this preparation. The government has realized this, and is continuing the training of thousands of young men at the different colleges and schools for the work which will be expected of them. The War Department saw the need and acted accordingly. Plans for giving educational work to our boys in France who are not to return are also under consideration.
"During the last eighteen months education has undergone a change never dreamed of in such a short period of time. This most important activity, so essential to the welfare and progress of our nation, is being recognized, with the result that a movement is on foot to have a Secretary of Education in the President's Cabinet.
"Now is the time to avail ourselves personally of every opportunity offered to increase our stock of knowledge and future value to the country. Now is the time to resume our studies, temporarily abandoned, with renewed vigor, purpose and enthusiasm. Let us make ourselves ready."

Chancellor Will Attend Telephone Hearing Friday
UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS, WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON, JANUARY 8, 1919.
Chancellor Frank Strong and John M. Shen, superintendent of buildings and grounds will go to Tomeka Friday to attend a hearing of the State Public Utilities Commission on a proposed change in the telephone rates at the University. The University has been receiving its telephone service for fifteen years at a nominal rate and the Kansas Telephone Company has asked an increase of about $2,734 a year.
K. U. has been paying about $1,000 for the service including operation and maintenance, and the K. U. heads are trying to keep the same rate. The company holds that the University should pay for service, according to the number of telephones on the Hill. After much correspondence the case has been referred to the Public Utilities Commission.
Rowland Clark Tells Of Chemical Service
Much Research Work on Teal / Gas, Mustard Gas, and Phosgene
Mr. Clark has been in the Chemical Warfare Service and has been stationed at the plant of the Edgewood Arsenal, Edgewood, N. J. He has been engaged in secret government work in the making of gas shells.
Sergt. Rowland J. Clark of St. Joseph Mo., e17, who until last March was an instructor in the department of chemistry, has returned to the University.
"No one was permitted to write what the nature of our work was," said Mr. Clark Monday, "and no unauthorized was allowed to enter the plant."
Mr. Clark was at first engaged as an inspector, while later he did research work in the laboratories. His work was largely with tear gas, mustard oil, and phosgene. Other plants at the Edgewood Araston work on nitrogen monoxide, carbon dioxide, sulphur-mono-chloride, and ethylene.
The arsenal was operated on a purely military basis, and was under the entire control of Colonel Walker. No civilians were allowed in the Edgewater pawn, all work of the arsenal being done by the 7,000 enlisted men
Mr. Clark re-enrolled in the University Monday to continue his postgraduate work. He will also do analytical work in the state survey of coals, which is under the supervision of the department of chemistry.

German People Greet Yanks as Liberators Says Capt. Vernson
K. U. Engineer Contrasts Hun Frightfulness With Pleas for Leniency
A letter recently received from Capt. Harry Vernson, e'19, of Blue Rapids, gives an interesting account of the attitude of the German people toward the American Army of Occupation. Captain Vernson, as many will remember, helped materially to beat Nebraska in '16. His position at right guard was one of the strong points in the line that year. He was commissioned at the first O. T. C. at Fort Riley. His letter reads:
Bitburg, Germany December 1915
What do you think of the new address? I like it very much—in fact, the people here treat us very well. I am very much surprised at the way they treat us. It isn't done so much in the open, as they seem to be afraid their neighbors will see them, or something of the sort, but in their homes they treat the men fine. seems better. Instead of victors, they look on us as liberators and treat us as such.
"It is raining again, which stands for almost any day. The fact is, the sun is such a rare thing here I have forgotten almost what it looks like, and get lonesome to get back home so I may see what it looks like again. "Last week I was in Luxenburg. That is a beautiful place, resembling the cities of the United States more than any other place I have been in since I have been here, with its wide streets and street cars running, and business going on as though nothing had ever happened.
"It is one contrast, going into a city like that, after living in a war-destroyed country a month and a half. I was situated right where the war was and has been, and all the towns in that vicinity were leveled to the ground, and were nothing but piles of powdered stone, where there once was a peaceful village. Take Verdun, for instance—a pretty good sized city of I, imagine, 75,000 inhabitants. There is not a thing left that would suggest business. In fact, there is not a whole building left standing, the streets being absolutely deserted, no civilians. It is surely a desolate sight to behold—The work of the Hun—and they want mercy.
"When I get home I am going to have a question night, and tell them all about it. After that I am going to refuse to take another bit, so if you are not there the first night you will be out of luck."
Leavenworth Teachers

W.S.G.A. Limits Women In Holding Offices In Student Activities
Point System Revived to Distribute Chances for
Honors
The "point system" has been revived as a test of eligibility for woman students aspiring to hold office and will be enforced by the eligibility committee of the University this year instead of by the council of the Woman's Student Government Association, members of the council announced after a conference with Chancellor Strong.
The aim of the point system is to prevent one person from holding more offices than she can successfully manage and to make it possible for more University women to take part in student activities. Each student office is given a certain rating in terms of performance; points a senior woman may hold is fifty, juniors forty, sophomores thirty, and freshmen twenty.
"I am heartily in favor of the point system." Chancellor Strong said. "Participation in student activities is good training for citizenship and for service after leaving the University. As many students as possible should be encouraged to take up work in student organizations and the point system guarantees this to some extent; it also prevents the introduction of a few women who are known as capable when there are plenty of others who are capable of doing the work but who are not so well known."
The revised point system, which Prof. H. C. Thurnau, chairman of the board, will use in determining the eligibility of women to hold offices as follows:
W. S. G. A.; president, 40; vice-
president, 5, 10; secretary, 30; treas-
urer, 30; senior and junior represen-
tation, 25; sophomore representatives, 15.
W. S. G. A.: president, 40; vice-president, 30; secretary, 30; treasurer, 30; cabinet member, 30; second cabinet members, 20; committee members, 20; committee members, 5.
Chairman of standing committees and departmental committees and those of honorary societies, 5. House presidents, 10.
Class Officers: junior-senior, 10;
freshman-som-homorrow, 5.
Publications: Kansan Board, 15
Annual editor, 30; Annual board, 10
Dramatics: Leads in plays, seniors and dramatics, 15; second parts, 10; junior and sophomore plays, leads 5; departmental plays, leads 5.
Pan heducic, president,
W. A. A.; president, 10; officers,
25; junior-senior representatives,
sophomore, 15; freshman, 10.
Glee Club: manager, 15; members,

DuPont Powder Company
Puts Scholarship Here
That Dupont Powder Company, the greatest chemical organization in the world, maintains a scholarship at the University of Kansas, is known to few. Some time during the summer the DuPont people decided to establish some thirty or forty scholarships and fellowships among the universities of the United States, selecting the University here for one of its undergraduate students. Another undergraduate students, in the department of Chemistry. The fellowships are open to graduates and graduate students. James S. Blair, junior completing his work this quarter now holds the scholarship here, and will continue with the work until the end of the current school year.

The total enrollment to date is 307, of which 160 are freshmen. According to Dean Schaad, most of the older men are still in service but will return to school when released.
A large number of the engineers are also at officer training schools and have not been sent abroad. The Engineering School claims the Vocational men who were trained in the school last summer, 900 of these men being in the Expeditionary forces in France.
The majority of the men in the service are "over seas." They are not confined to the engineering branch only, but are in almost every branch. In many countries having affiliated in Company M, which was organized in Lawrence.
Among the faculty who have joined the colors are: Dean P. F. Walker, stationed at Camp Dodge and who will be released within a few weeks; Captain Roberts, in France; Captain Haskins, who is now in Washington in the Sanitary Corps; Lieutenant Garver, U. S. N. Hoboken, N. J.; and Captain Jones, also in France.
Finance Committee to Meet
There will be a meeting of all of the W. Y. C. A. finance teams on Wednesday at 4:30 o'clock in the Hostess room of Mall. Dean Kelly will give a short talk. The captains of the teams are urged to see that all of the members of their teams are present.

EXIT GRAFT
The University of Kansas has actually progressed enough in politics to eliminate the old time so-called beauty contest and to institute a popularity contest, which will be conducted as a class election. The new plan announced by managers of the Jayhawker has met with the approval of practically every student and organization on the Hill.
had the plans not been changed,
this year's Jayhawker would probably not have been supported generally by the students. Three of the largest organizations on the Hill who had refused to support the old graft scheme, are behind the new movement and are doing everything to make the Peace Book a success.
Since the managers have shown that there is to be no graft connected with the contest this year, every student in the University should support the book and promote interest in the contest.
August Wilhelm, fourth son of the erstwhile Emperor of Germany, has a job with a motor car company. It is to be hoped that he is a mechanic, and will often get smugges on his face.
In spite of suffrage and woman's entrance into what were formerly purely masculine occupations, we observe that the only woman who is getting anywhere near the peace table is doing it because she married the right man.
THE SPIRIT OF THE ARMY "I will, Sir."
Not "I'll try, Sir."
These are words that the men of our army use. And when they are told to do things, the spirit of the army causes men to act whether the detail is agreeable or disagreeable, or whether there is a reason for it or not.
Why should this spirit not pervade in our University life?
For three short months, a former student of K. U. was in one of the camps, either at Funston, Grant, Taylor, Doniphan, or perhaps Sheridan. After he had been through the "mill," the swift conclusion of the war, the signing of the armistice, and the wholesale discharge of men, brought him back to the Hill. His professors looked at him as they had known him in preceding years. Plenty of brains, but a weak desire to use them for study. Plenty of ambition, but only enough to be able to slide through classes.
He enrolled! Took his usual fifteen hours work, and went to classes the first day. The knowledge of an eight-thirty was enough. The bugle at five-forty-five last October was
enough, and the sub-conscious obedience that is a second nature in the army brought him out from between the covers without a minute's mental debate. He went to class. "That night instead of that habilid desire for a movie, or small talk with the 'fellows,' he took a dig - into his books, with that same resistible energy he had learned in the army. And so with all his work! His athletics! His student activities!"
With that driving force that knows nothing but success he has gone at them. The "spirit of the army" has not forsaken him, but is with him yet, and although he had but three short months of the life that has straightened stooped shoulders, that has put fire in keen American eyes, that has given soggy brains new life and energy, that has put sturdiness into the bodies and power into the muscles of our American men.
How did three short months do this thing? Twenty-four hours of the day were utilized, and divided so efficiently that a maximum of work with all its benefits was derived. The spirit of the army, the spirit to do, and to work twenty-four hours of the day. It has given our college men, a new view of things he thought but yesterday to be unimportant factors in his success.
The faults of the Student Army Training Corps at the University of Kansas were many and serious. The latest offense that has been placed on the head of the University army is that they paid cooks such high wages that the culinary mechanics are now independently rich. This is the first time in the history of the United States Army it has ever been accused of making any one in the service independently rich.
WILL THE FLIVER COME BACK?
With the signing of the armistice and the returning of our men from across the seas, a problem nearly as big as the employment question confronts us. Before the war, a crawling thing bore the brunt of much of the wit of the world—the lowly flivver. Jokes, puns, witticisms, and humorous essays were unpityingly shot against its sturdy tin sides, and through them all it lived. Even the men who wrote these things rode to and from their work in flivers.
And then came the war. And soon
And then heard the war. And so we heard of another crawling thing! Not a crawling thing in which the men across the pond rode up to the trenches. No, indeed. These crawling things, unlike the fliver, except that there were just as many as there are flivers, went with the boys to the trenches, but the boys carried them. The cootie has displaced the fliver. Although cartoons, movies, jokes, puns, and a million other forms of humor have been directed toward popularizing the cootie, one thing seems certain. The cootie will not come back—with the boys. The fliver is still assured a place in the sun

All moods are mine. I am hilarious, I am frivolous, I am gray, I am serious, I am sad. I spin out the silver thread of happiness, the golden thread of comfort and solace. On wings of melody I bear the dreamer off to strange places and stranger lands. To the wanderer, I sing of home. In the despondent J renew resolve. To the despairing I bring hope. In the child I engender pure tastes, refinement and inspire noble thoughts and high ambitions.
I am the soul of the joy of life—the companion of its sorrows.

In peace I had ever been at the service of man. In war was I to be found wanting? Was I to be thoughtlessly brushed aside in the tremendous rush to arms?

I found my niche, for I am full of cheer, of undying, unlickering resolve—of the spirit that knows not defeat.
Day and night found me on duty with the saviors of civilization—in the camps, on the ships, in strange foreign villages, in dingouts, in trenches right up to hell's partition—everywhere where death and danger were commonplace, soothing, humiliating, hush, singing of victory amid the battle's roar—restoring the balance of upset minds—chanting the dirge of devilry.

LOVE
What is the measure of the love we owe to others? It is the measure of what we think is owing to ourselves. "Love him as thyself." Observe, if I may use such a word, the equity of this divine rule. It makes us the judge of what we ought to do. It imposes upon us no duty that we have not already acknowledged for ourselves.—Dean Stanley.
Plymouth Jottings
If you have been at K. U. very long you have heard the name of Ed Todd Ed is the sort of fellow who represents K. U. at its best. A gentleman, a Christian, an athlete, a servant of his country, a man loved by the boys of many a High School in the state of Kansas. In a quiet, modest way he has extended his influence into the lives of a great many amphibians. Vivifying, modest, one of the army of New Crusaders who never came into action for their country, he goes out now in a still more strenuous crusade.
Ed Todd sails almost immediately for Constantinople. He goes out under the Armenian and Syrian Relief Expedition for at least a year. It will be a great adventure. It will be a wonderful opportunity for service. It thrills all his friends with pride to know that Ed has this great chance.
New K. U., is proud of men like Ed Todd. But how proud? Proud enough to share his sacrificial spirit and speed him on his way with a certification of real faith in him? If so, I propose the Kanasi—Aned Todd Fund for Armenian Relief. You know the desperate need for food and clothing over there. You know the cruel story of the deportations. Will you help?
If you will, send your check to me or to The Kansan, and leave a bit of silver at the Kansan Office. We will render an account, and we pledge you that every cent contributed will go straight to New York without deducting postage or exchange. If you prefer to give through your own church or Sunday School, do so. The purpose of this article isn't to honor Ed Todd; it is to help him help the Armenians.
Here's a chance to show that you are a person of generosity and of imagination. If you are a faculty member your money is just as acceptable is that of a mere undergraduate!
Yours very cordially,
ROSS W. SANDERSON,
Pastor of Plymouth.

Chevrons on Uniforms Signify Service Length and Wounds in Battle
Offers Dislike Differentiating Among Those Who Never Saw Action
Former University students are beginning to be seen on the Hill again, with little chevroons on their sleeves, and many are asking the meaning of them. By government or der they are allowed to wear this insignia, signifying the period and nature of service.
By a recent order of the President, each field officer, enlisted man, and field clerk, who served six months in the war outside the war zone, has the right to wear a silver chevron on the lower half of his shirt. He also has the right to wear an additional silver chevron for each additional six months of similar service.
The soldier who has received wounds in battle may be identified by a gold chestworn on the lower half of the right sleeve. These wounds must have been received in action with the enemy or a result of an act of the enemy which has necessitated treatment by a doctor.
Officers and enlisted men who have served six months in the war zone may wear a gold chevron on the left lower sleeve, with additional chevrons for each additional six months service.
A sky blue chevron of cloth, of the same pattern and worn in the same manner as the gold chevron, will be given to men serving in the war zone less than six months.
Additional chevroots may be worn for additional wounds, but not more than one chevron $^{**}$ may be worn for two or more wounds received in one action. That is, if a man wears three wound stripes, it means that he has been wounded in three directions but does not designate the number of his wounds, but the number of encounters in which he has received wounds.
Being disabled by gas is considered a wound, for which a wound chevron may be worn.
The gold, silver, and blue war or service chevrous, and the gold chevrous for wounds are the only ones
mentioned in the orders printed in the last number of the Army and Navy Journal. However, some soldiers have been seen wearing red chevros. They are as yet unauthentic, it is said, but are believed by officers here to be for discharges.
Officers and old army men disagree on the fairness of the service chevron. They say there should be no distinction between the man who had to stay on this side, and the man who went across but saw no active service. They suggest that chevrons be issued for men who have been fighting, and that those who have not be issued a different kind, but with no regard as to where they were stationed, whether in this country or in the war zone.

War Proves Stimulant To Football, Declares Expert Walter Camp
"Game Will Continue as Long as Nature is Virile Enough to Fight."
Walter Camp's annual review of the football season of 1918 appeared in Collier's for January 4. The dean of American football begins: "The football season of 1918 was one of the most peculiar in the whole history of the game, and yet it will stand as an epoch-making one in the progress of the sport. More football was played throughout the country than even in the palestiniest season of college football. The dissemination of the game, which started in 1917, continued with even more emphasis during 1918, due of course, to the war conditions which congregated large numbers of men in camps, cantonments, or stations. These men took up the sport with interest and enthusiasm."
Mr. Camp then goes on to the game in the colleges, Princeton and Pittsburg, he says, turned out better teams than ever, while several of the universities produced as good teams as they ever had. The teams organized behind the lines in France are also mentioned. Of special interest was the make-up, of the Harvard Radio team. Two Missouri Valley men were mentioned, a K. U. man and a Washington University man, although the names were not given.
"One interesting feature of the football season, particularly throughout the Middle West, was almost a trace of jealousy as to dates between service teams and contests of the S. A. T. C. . . But this jealousy did not hurt the game, . . . There never yet was a sport worthy the name for a hearty, normal American boy that did not have in it the gist of intense, soulful competition."
"In October we heard some wails that the sport of football would be forgotten for the period of the war. Never was there a more foolish fear. Football is war on a mimic scale, and it will continue just as long as the nature is virile enough to fight. Influenza did more to knock it out than did the war, and by November there was more football played than ever in the old days when colleges monopolized the sport.
"Teams by the thousand were at work in cantonment, camp, and station, and schedules were arranged to fill up doubly all the available days and playing fields. And when the commanders, either American or foreign, tell of the results of this sport upon the morale and fighting spirit of their men there, they are still vital to the war at the very outreaches of the war in this country. The entire teams of our leading universities rushed to the colors.

"The 'gridiron warriors' as they had been called before we had a war, doffed the moleskin and jersey for the khaki, stepped right off the lime-marked gridiron on to the parade ground, and they can be spotted grinding spirit for which our fighting men have been justly celebrated.
"The same courage, patience, and persistence with which they have developed their football attack were needed in the drill and preparation for war. The same discipline, co-ordination, and quick thinking which were required on the football field were demanded in the camps. And, best of all, that grand do-or-die spirit that holds the attack on the oneyard line was what made Chateau Thierry.
"It was conclusively proved that there is no need for anyone to be apprehensive about football. As long as we are breeding youths with virile mind and body, youts to be the backbone of the nation, football will be played and played in deadly earnest. Every boy who is to become a real
man in the light in which we now have learned to view the real man has bred in the very marrow of his bones the desire for personal physical combat with boys of his own ages on the athletic field, and no game so simulates the features of such personal combat as does the sport of football."

Chancellor's Budget Calls For Money To Meet Urgent Needs Only
No Increase Asked For Merit Just to Meet Higher Living Expenses
Plans Include Hospital Building At Rosedale—Cost Spread Over Two Years
Need New Power Plant
A budget calling for appropriations of $1,311,918 for 1919-20 and $1,369,688 for 1920-21 for general expenses repair and new buildings of the University of Kansas will be presented to the legislature when it meets next week. Details of the budget were public today by Chancellor Stronge.
Included in the totals are $440,163 for each year of the blemium for salaries and wages, in all departments, $206,511 for maintenance each year in 1 department and $103,514 for repairs and permanent improvements in each year. Five hundred dollars for the Chancellor's contingent fund is allocated to these items; these items for the maintenance of the University, $167,280 is asked in 1919 for new buildings, and $225,600 for the same purpose in 1920.
The appropriations asked for the coming biennium are materially greater than for the previous two years, due largely to increases in salaries and benefits. The item, den entirely to the increased cost of living, is estimated at $140,420.
MERELY TO DEL EM LIVE
"In practically every instance no increase was made in the budget for merit," says the chancellor's statement. "The amount noted above therefore, consists entirely of an adjustment of salaries now paid to the increased cost of living."
NUMBER 53.
Another item of increased expenditure is contained in a request for $112,047 for salaries and $83,742 for apparatus and supplies, in order to make possible additions and extensions to the University service. These additions and extensions, the chancellor explained, are in addition to the curtailed work of 1917-18, during the war period, and are intended only to put the University back where it was before the war. The use of these stocks is owing partly to the increased cost of materials, and partly to the necessity of replenishing stocks that were reduced during the four years of war.
EVEN WATER COSTS MONEY
EVEN WATER COSTS MONEY
Increase of the water rate to the
University has caused a deficit of
$650, and the increased price of coal
has caused a deficit of approximately
$17,000
The building items cover a new power and heating plant for the University and a new hospital building. The cost to be spread over two years,
"The heating plant is run to its capacity now," on cold days, said the chancellor, "and the power plant, which supplies the lights for the University is far overtaxed, especially so on dark days. There is positive danger that the University might have its lights, or for both reasons. We are adding new buildings, and must provide facilities for their use."
WON'T FINISH AD NOW
"No effort will be made at this time to finish the Administration Building. The finishing of the west wing this winter will give needed class room, and the auditorium can wait until the cost of materials and labor is lower."
An apportionment of the budget among the main administrative divisions of the University shows that almost one-third of the total budget is required to conduct the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences. Other approximate percentages for the various divisions are:
University activities having relations to the University as a whole and having more or less independent organization, 20 per cent; general administration and general expense, 4 per cent; operation and maintenance of plant, 9 per cent; School of Medicine, 12 per cent; School of Engineering, 9 per cent; School of Fine Arts, 9 per cent; School of Law and Graduate School, 2 per cent each; School or Pharmacy, 1 per cent.
LIBRARY MEAGLESS SUPPORTED.
In addition, the chancellor's budget points out that
UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS, THURSDAY AFTERNOON, JANUARY 9, 19199.
this part of the University serve,
3,000 to 4,000 persons, students and
faculty. The amount asked for books,
$25,000, must be divided among sixty-
five different departments, with an
average of about $400 for each one.
"There are often as many as 2,000 teachers and students using the library in a single day," the budget says, in explanation.
The appropriation asked for maintaining the museums, $9,150, is less than 1 per cent of the cost of maintaining the institution, and it is explained: "The University of Kansas has probably the largest and most extensive collection of any state university and among the most valuable in America."
The chancellor said further that the University is only one of the important institutions of the state; that the interests of all these institutions must be considered as a unit and that they together make up very largely the organized arm of the state and therefore in a large measure the state itself. The University therefore is interested in the success of all."
History Students Form Fortnightly Study Club
Local Company Seeks Great Increase in Cost of Service to University
A History Club was organized Tuesday night by members of the history department. The following were elected officers:
Gussie Gaskill, president; Frances Ludeman, secretary.
The next meeting of the club will be the night of January 21 at 7:15 in History Seminar room, Spooner Library. Meetings will be held regularly every two weeks. Anyone interested in history is invited to attend.

Honor System Plan Endorsed Heartily By University Men
Co-operation With Women t Wine Out Cheating is
Wipe Out Cheating is
Plan
There has been considerable agitation among the women of the University for the honor system and upon investigation it is found that the men of the University are just as much in favor of its installation as the women.
"I think the honor system would be a good thing in the School of Engineering," says George Devoe. "There is a tendency over there for each man to help the other and I believe the honor system would do away with some of the objectionable features that are bound to exist. It has worked in other schools and I see no re son why it will not work here."
Fred Stringfellow, president of the School of Law said: "I think the honor system would be a good thing in the College but I see no need for it in the School of Law. We don't crook in the School of Law. However, we do have some trouble with out first year men, who are direct from the Collegg."
"It is too bad that the instructors have to stand guard in the quiz room like policecinem," Marvin Harms, editor of the 1919 Jaywhacker said "Why can't we be as honorable here as students in other schools are? In other schools, in West Point in particular, the instructor puts the questions on the front board and the answers on the rear board and no one ever thinks of turning around to look at the answer."
Ray Hemphill, last year's Junior Prom manager, is heartily in favor of the honor system. "I think the honor system would be a good thing. It was started last year but was not carried out and I think it should be. We can never expect anything from the individual student until we put him on his honor to do his work honestly and fairly."
Censorship Is Lifted In Letter from France From Lawrence Hughes
Sailed on Saxonia Early in War
--Saw Halifax Disaster
Since the censorship on overseas mail has been practically lifted, letters from K. U. men in France concern themselves over there not heretofore published.
Lawrence Hughes, a former K. U.
student, who enlisted in the service
seven days after war was declared,
following to say about his experience:
I shall have to write on the installment plan," he says in a letter to his mother, as a full account would fill a book." Although Hughes was not an ally of the governor, he succeeded in remembering dates and places with unusual accuracy.
"On May 20 (1918) at nine o'clock," he writes, "we boarded the British steamer Saxonia and this regiment was quartered on the lower deck in the hold. There were nearly two regiments on board, so you can see that it was not a very large ship. We lay at the wharf in New York harbor until 5 p. m. when everyone was ordered down below and out of sight. The steamer then cast off and slid down the East Pier, where the tide of U.S.
There we were joined by fourteen other transports and a camouflaged battle cruiser, which was to be our mission for the greater part of the voyage.

well away from shore we were allowed
to come on deck and watch the
vanishing coast line of the finest country

Our boat proceeded alone from New York to Halifax where we lay at anchor for one day and night. We saw explosion they had there last winter.
We and the rest of the fleet left Halifax on the morning of the twenty-fourth and we were able to see the fortifications of the harbor, and they seemed very formidable. Once on out the ocean the fleet began a zigzag course in order that submarines would have to be pretty close to judge the course the boat were taking. All the ships were more or less camouflaged.

Bond Back to Aid Hamilton In Training Yearling Basketers
Assistant Coach Returns to Duty After Severe Illness
With the return of Coach Jay Bond to duty, after severe illness with influenza, the freshman basketball team has organized to give the Varsity some genuine scrimmage to put it in shape for the conference games
this season. Conch Bond has been out the last two nights and probably will charge a fee to year men, leaving Hamilton to devote all of his time on the Varsity.
The freshmen have enough material for several good teams and Coach Bond put four different quintets on the floor Wednesday night in succession. The scrimmage was fast but the yearlings were no match for the Varsity fives. In his first five, Coach Bond used Hubert Wesley and E. Harry Harkarell at the forward positions, Harry Turner at center, and Pete Gunn Valley at left. For the Varsity, Bennett ad Madison worked at the guard positions, Matthews at center, Bunn and Harms at forward.
Eighteen men were out for the freshman team, and eleven for the Varsity.
They are: Harry Turner, Pete Gross, Vallen Hower, Hubert Wesley, E. Harkarland, Hugh Pendergrast, Dan Bramwell, Henry Harry, Irvin Glynn, Bukilrak, Hugh Carlin, Francis Myers, Will Madden, G. H Lamb, C. Swenson, D. B. Harrison, Alfred Brigham, G. Body, freshman candidates; Miller, Lonborg, Bennett, Mason, Matthews, Bunn, Harms, Fredericks, Adams, Marxen, and Keckley were out for the Varsity.
Zoology Initiates Dress To Represent Specimens
The Zoology Club held initiation Wednesday afternoon for thirteen new members. The initiate and that which they were dressed to represent during initiation were L. C. Moore, crayfish; J. Biderwell, monkey; Mary Anderson, clam; Winifred Ward, jelly fish; Anna McCulock, amoeba; Ruth Trant, snail; Habel Ramsey, donkey; Ella Gerhoem, penguin; Gladys Griffin, bumble bee; Arthur Tenny, praying mantis; Margaret Lodge, butterfly; Ula Reed, hydrangea; Lucille Edgar, grasshopper.
A banquet was held after the initiation and Prof. W. J. Baumgartner gave a toast to the new members.
Through the courtesy of Dr. A. W. Clark, an exhibition of bookplates will be made in the Administration Building next week. Doctor Clark's collection is one of the finest in the country and consists of eight thousand patterns.
The Graduate Club will meet Friday afternoon at 4:30 o'clock in Westminster Hall. Dean Blacknair will speak on "The Need for Scientific Research." Special music will be given and tea served in the rooms to the guests of the club following the dean's address.
Will Show Bookplates
Lieut. Lawrence C. Hay of Paola is visiting friends here today. Lieutenant Hay is on his way to California to obtain his discharge 'after spending a furough at his home in Paola.
Land-ladies Must Keep Track Of Girls—Miss Corbin
Housemothers Are Held
Responsible Under Rules
"Every housemother and landlady is responsible to the rooming house committee for what goes on in the house of which she is the head," said Miss Alberta Corbin, adviser of women, at a meeting of the House President's Council Wednesday afternoon. "If any women are out of the house she should know why they are out and should have given her approval to their absence. The duty of the house mother is to assist in operation with the house mother or landlady, the adviser of women, and the W. S. G. A."
There was a general discussion of
the importance of keeping the closing hours. Miss Corbin stressed prompt closing as essential to the health of the students and expressed her determination that the closing hours and quiet hours should be observed carefully this year.
The house presidents were enthusiastic in the discussion of various house problems. The questions of the temperature of the rooms, good lights and hot water were discussed among the members of the council.
"This council is the beginning of a big thing," Miss Corbin added. "It has been needed for many years. It will serve as a firm foundation to a sound, healthful, social life of the school."
Plain Tales From the Hill
A timid looking freshmen approached one of the old journalists in the Kansan office this morning and said "Can you tell me where I can see my circulation?" The brilliant upper-classman immediately suggested that she consult a doctor.
A professor and, one of the most profusive daters on the Hill upon inquiring what the date rule went on, week nights, replied. "Well I thought it began at 8 o'clock but, you know, I never quit until 9."
Harold Hall, lieutenant U. S. A., has been demoted into the ranks. At the meeting of the Associated Journalists yesterday afternoon, Lieutenant Hall was made sergeant at arms.
An upperclassman said, "Now don't any of you freshen them let a man on your ticket play with you pretending to be a nurse when he has a pin in his pocket."
Did you see the private bossing the lieutenant who was shoveling snow on Tennessee Street yesterday? The officer is a pledge. The private is an upperclassman.
'What we gonn do—search 'em?' asked the fresh.
Ain't it surprising how many men on the Hill wear army overcoats who were never in the army?
Did you write it today 1-9-1919?
"Have you heard of the Sig Alph drmft?" asked Bud Bowersock.
"No." answered Charles Hall or Beta fame.
"Yes, the Sig Alphs are sending out questionaires to all S. A. T. C. men not under the tent," continued "Bud."
**asking him:** "Most of them are asking exemption," was But's reply.
Will all persons who have black cats any size or description please corral them and call 295 by Thursday night. Signed—Theta Freshman.
We know that there are some professors on the Hill who are a little behind times in some of the current topics, but it was a terrible surprise to learn that one of the professors in the department of sociology has the nerve to spring the joke about, the girl with cold hands and God's love for her under such trying conditions.
Lieut. Willison Lectures
On Wireless Telephony
Lieut. Abner R. Willeson of Gerstner Field, Lake Charles, LA., gave a lecture on "Wireless Telephony as It Is" in Blake Hall Wednesday afternoon.
Lieutenant Willson is a former K. U. student, having been enrolled in the School of Engineering for three years. He left the University two years ago to accept a position with the Kansas City Railway Company. Shortly after the United States entered the war, he enlisted in the aviation and was sent to the radio telephony training school at Columbia University, New York. He was graduated from the school, commissioned second lieutenant, and sent to Gerstner Field an instructor. Since then he has been the senior instructor in wireless telephony at the field and has done a large amount of secret research for the government.
Flint on Commerce Committee Prof. L. N. Flint, head of the department of journalism, has been appointed a member of the nominating committee of the Lawrence Chamber committee is to place in nomination forty-two names for the office of director half of which are to be elected.
Lieutenant Willison has received his discharge and is spending several days at the University before going to his home in Salt Lake City.

Phonog. B.K. U. 25 and 66.
The Daily Kansan aims to picture the undergraduate life of students, further than merely printing the news by standing for the values the University does; it plays no face to be clean; to be cheerful; to be kind; to be responsible; to leave more serious problems to wiser heads; in all, to serve to educate the students of the University.
THURSDAY, JANUARY 9, 1919
THE WATER SUPPLY
For some months Lawrence paper have printed a notice warning citizen to "boil water until further notice", which is a good long time. Lawrence people have observed the warning but are beginning to tire of it. The action of the city commissioners in completing the new water plant is as deliberate as their diction, when they caution us to continue boiling the water.
The mayor and the city commissioners say that the delay in completing the plant is a result of the war, and the consequent shortage of labor; that contracts made a year ago have not been filled, although all possible steps have been taken to rush the completion of the plant. When Mayor Kreeck was in New York three weeks ago, he made another effort to secure the equipment ordered, by conferring directly with the firm with which the contract was made. The mayor, city commissioners, and the city engineer are confident that the whole plant, including the filtration system, will be finished within four or six weeks.
The University has been without any drinking water during the present school year. An agitation for a separate distilling plant for the University has had no results, because authorities in the department of chemistry say that the initial cost of installing such a plant would be considerably more than a thousand dollars, and that even after it was installed, it would cost six cents a gallon to distill water, which is nearly as much as it would cost to buy the distilled water directly.
The state bacteriological laboratory announced that the city water is fit to drink now, that it has been for three weeks, but that there is no assurance that the same treatment which makes it fit to drink will be continued. It seems that the water may be used one day, and that it may not the next—that its purity is problematic. About the only thing University students may be sure of is that they may receive free inoculation for typhoid fever any week during the school year.
The city fathers have assured us that the new plant will be finished within four or six weeks. They said this a year ago. The truth of the statement remains to be seen. In the mean time, we will drink questionable water, or "boil it until further notice."
CLOTHES AND THE MAN
Here's to him!
We're all for the man who still wears his uniform.
Complete uniforms are compara
tively scare on the Hill, but the O.D. overcoat and the pea jacket are very much with us, albeit the plebeian trouser appears where the old puttee used to be.
In these days of conservation the practical and wise thing to do is to keep on wearing army clothes. Wool is scarce, and the uniforms have considerable wear left in them. Incidentally, the issued overcoat is warmer than the civilian top coat.
As far as "class" goes, the khaki-clad man is miles ahead of the poor civilian. Pale purples and forest greens are artistic. The azure sock and the absinthe tie are picturesque. But the fact remains that their wearers look weakly insignificant compared with well-groomed men in all wool uniforms.
The word "Hun" will retain a place in American literature. F. E. Aust proposed to replace, "Keep off the grass," with "Don't be a Hun." We suggest another interpretation, "Don't be a Snob."
BOXING HERE TO STAY
University athletes and enthusiasts will be glad to know that more encouragement will be given to boxing this quarter.
Dr. Joseph A. Reilly, athletic director of Kansas City Athletic Club, believes that the sport of boxing will sooner or later be placed in all schools. He compliments the University of Kansas upon being the first school of the valley to take up boxing.
Dr. Reilly suggests that boxing matches with other colleges be arranged. There is an opportunity for the University of Kansas at this time to encourage this action. The men here are interested in the sport and would like to see a boxing schedule arranged.
Manhattan plans to invite other colleges to compete with them. Why cannot the University of Kansas be one of the first to issue an invitation
LOOK OUT BELOW
Students in the University of Kansas will be well fitted to undertake Arctic explorations after going through one Lawrence winter. They can scramble around over glaciers without spiked shoes. They will know how to slide down the sides of icebergs in the most approved fashion. Fields of snow will not disconcert them. They've had experience.
The Thirteenth Street hill beats any nice young glacier in lack of secure footing and the Fourteenth Street hill is worse than the coast of Greenland for unexpected breaks.
The campus is one sheet of snow until the University snow scraper limbers up for action. And by that time it has melted and frozen and melted and frozen until no human agency can remove it.
Shoveing snow is one of those things it is better to let the other fellow do—notwithstanding city ordinations and their lack of enforcement. Nobody suffers but the poor folk who fall down and there is some consolation even for them. The doctors make money from setting fractured bones and applying hot water to sprains.
Let the good work go on,we say.
Nothing is more kingly than kindness.
The best way to kill off a rival is to make him a friend.
Happiness is a by-product of helpfulness.
He who remembers old friends makes new ones.
NUGGETS
Keep the milk of human kindness to yourself, and it soon curdles.
The great always have a long memory for their friends.
One of the worst thieves is the man who has no time to think of others.
The present is always full of opportunities to pay our debts to the past.
Students in the University of Missouri, according to an order issued December 30 by President A. Ross. Hill are urgently requested to take the vaccine, to prevent another outbreak of influenza. The vaccine used for the work was first made last month in the Public Health Laboratory of the University of Missouri.

KINDNESS
To The Daily Kansan:
This Column is Open to all Students of the University
The finance campaign of the Young Women's Christian Association will soon be on and I wish to take this opportunity to speak of certain phases of the work of the association that have come under my observation and that I regard as of value to university life.
First of all is the Big Sister movement. The chairman of the Big Sister committee came to my office the week before enrollment and offered the services of her captains in assisting new girls by giving them information and helping them locate. On the first enrollment day the captains came and those detailed for duty were on hand promptly throughout enrollment week. They did real service in assisting girls who were in Lawrence for the first time. After enrollment in the first few days before class work regularly opened they cheered the girls who would otherwise have been lonely and home sick. And again when the University was closed because of the influenza epidemic, I had occasion to call upon the big sisters to help the freshmen who were in town with nothing to fill up their time.
I know from my own observation that they have furthered and sometimes originated movements among the student body that have resulted in permanent good for the University—movements that have tendered higher scholarship, better conditions and higher standards of social life. A striking example of this kind of work was the assistance given when the Woman's Student Government Association was started some years ago; Miss Alice Nourse, now Mrs. Tindale, was the secretary; Miss Nourse and her association were among the most interest workers in spreading the sentiment for student government among the University
About that time too a Y. W. C. A. House was established which was helpful in creating standards of living. I have always regretted that the house was not continued. It is to be hoped that the campaign for funds will have the hearty support of the students of the University.
The historian who wishes to make the closing of the war clear to his readers will do well to note these lines in which James Hopper tells what he saw on the way north from Vaux to Soissons:
Alberta L. Corbin, Dean of Women.
All our boys lay stretched exactly in the same direction, as if they by some mysterious magnetic current they had been pointed toward some spiritual pole—the pole of their averaging purpose. They lay stretched exactly in the direction of advance, health, advance, fear, the foe, their fear, the beautiful and lilie, while the Germans were in buddies at the bottom of the shell holes.

On Other Hills
To offset the disturbance caused by demobilization of the Students' Army Training Corps, following close of the war, Washington University will continue the current year under the trimester system instead of the semester, in order that students may do a full year's work. It also makes it possible for a high school graduate, with military training or experience that can be accepted as credit, to enter the university at the best of the second trimester, including number 20, and obtain a course. The schools have been extended from June 12 to 21, which, with curtailment of holiday periods, makes a session of thirty weeks, or only two less than the original schedule.
Formal application has been filed with the War Department for establishment at the university of one or more units of the Reserve Officers' Training Corps, following inquiry by the department as to the wishes of the university in that direction.
A preunning course for women has been opened at Pennsylvania State College. Intensive study will be conducted twelve weeks in the scientific subjects that are a part of the regular hospital training.
Despite the cessation of hostilities there is a growing need for trained nurses in the army hospitals, according to M. M. Ireland, Surgeon-General of the Army. The government requires the nursing candidates to be graduates of high schools, at least 20 years old, and to be in good health. Young women who complete the preliminary course immediately will be sent to hospital training schools for three months. The two months credit toward graduation as a trained nurse will be given for the work at State College and the probation period will be shortened one month. The course will include the study of hygiene, physiology, anatomy, chem-elementary nursing, and lectures by the college physician. The expense for the twelve weeks at State College will be $120, covering board, room, and fees.
WITHOUT HONOR
"So everything is lost, including honor."
That is the bitter comment of the Cologne Gazette upon the action of the German sailors who, for the sake of the bonus, took the U-9 to England along with the rest of the submarines. The U-9 was Commander Weddingen's boat distinguished above the others by the honorable record of having sunk war ships only. Of them, Beatty, with that chivalry of the sea which none but Gavin had disregarded, wailing for this reason, his surrender. But the measure of earning 500 marks apiece was too much for the creatures who drowned women and children, so the U-9 went along with the rest.
"We cannot sink lower in the estimation of the world says the 'azette; it is impossible."
No wonder that there are even Germans who understand the deep damnation of the sordid episode.
The revenge, of course, will not be foregone. Already the British merchant seamen have imposed a severe year penalty upon their false brethern. They will not in all that time sail to German port or carry German goods. It is a just punishment for the murder of 15,000 of their fellows. It will be strange if American seamen are more forgiving. They, too, have seen the savagery of the Hun; they can recall shipmates who have been victims of Huns. What else can the German flag be than the symbol of dishonor for years to come?
That this truth should at last penetrate the German mind is well. A sense of guilt is the first step toward repentance. And yet seamen the world over will feel a little sense of shame that seamen should sink so low. They know, of course, what the German seaman is; they remember how he has broken all the kindly laws of the sea. Nevertheless, this last instance of the total debasement of men wearing the uniform of their country promotes melancholy rather than revengeful reflections.
The Germans have not been men but murderers, like pirates risking their own lives in attack. They have been cold blooded assassins, stabbing the unprotected in the dark. And now they reveal themselves as mean and greedy assassins, deliberately hurling the one memorial of German heroism and bravery at sea to the enemy who magnanimously sought to spare it—N. Y. Tiburen.

Some experienced lawyers hold that the truth is never so well served as by unconscious and unwilling testimony. For instance, a lot of us have ideas on the freedom of the press, etc., but the American theory was never better stated than by Count JOHANN HEINRECH VON BERNSTORFF some time the kaiser's deputy at Washington, when he lamented to the Wilhelmstasse Foreign Office on October 27, 1916:
"The fact of the American newspaper being subsidized can never be kept secret, because there is no reticence in this country. It always ends in my being held responsible for all the articles of any such newspapers." The former embassador had learned College.
The former embassador had learned something and said it!- Collier's.
Englishmen visiting this country write home that they are astonished by the absence of bragging here over our achievements in the war. Wait a bit. Our posterity will be on deck presently organizing the Sons and Daughters of Armageddon and crowing about us—and perhaps stretching it a little. Human experience is that those who do things do not brag much, and that those in the midst of things do not see them very largely. Their descendants attend to the glorification. We of today will shine gorgeously as ancestors and will be at our best as splendid memories, and credited with heroisms and patriotisms and sacrifices we will wish we really had committed, if we are permitted to look over the situation.—Richmond Times

Y.W.C.A. to Ask $1,500
In Campaign Jan. 14-21
"Think in Big Terms," Dean Kelly Advises Women Workers
The campaign of the finance committee of the Y. W. C. A. will be January 14 to January 21, at which date every woman on the Hill will have been solicited person in the Y. W. C. A. of March 14, in the Y. W. C. A. of March 14. The pledges may be paid when they are made or February 10 or March 10, at the Y. W. C. A. office.
"It is a real honor," said Dean F. J. Kelly at this meeting, "to be one of the women to go out and put this over. Don't be cowardly in your demands for money. You can raise $1,800 just as easily as you could $1,500, and with proper organization and spirit you could raise $2,500 without difficulty. It's just a question of what you put first. If we ask of whether you will give up something in order to drive to the cause, I feel sorry for a woman who has so much money she does not know what it is to sacrifice for a cause like this."
A team of 178 women will work in the finance campaign, said Miss Katherine Duffield, secretary, at a meeting of all the workers at Myrna Hall, Wednesday afternoon. Each of the twentytwo captains will have eight women under her, and each one of these girls will be responsible for seeing four girls.
Dean Kelly used the characters in William Allen White's "In the Heart of a Fool" as examples of right and wrong put first in the lives of people.
"We want the Y. W. C. A. to be a big thing, the big thing in fact, on the Hill," he added. "We know it can be, and it's up to the women to make it. Think in big terms and I know it can be done."
Chancellor Not to Speak
Chancellor
Because Chancellor Frank Strong will be out of town Friday, he will not speak before the Graduate Club at its meeting scheduled for the afternoon of that day. F. W. Blackmar, dean of the Graduate School, will take his place and will speak on the subject, probably, of research work of graduate students. The meeting is called for 4:30 o'clock, Friday afternoon, and will be in Westminster Hall.
Plymouth Jottings
Do you realize what is going on in the world?
This is the problem which the Church faces.
Says Bishop Gore, Lord Bishop of Oxford, "Property for 'use,' what a man needs for true freedom, is a very limited quantity. Speedily as it expands it becomes "property for power." That is where property has manifestly gone wrong. In our own civilization, we find vast masses who cannot be reasonably described as having any adequate measure of property for use. They cannot go into life like the machine they free the woman. The conviction rises in our minds that we need by peaceful means and, if it may be, by general consent, to accomplish such a re-distribution of property as shall reduce the inordinate amount of "property for power" in the hands of the few, and give to all men in reasonable measure property "for use."
And the Joint Commission non Social Service of the Protestant Episcopal Church in America adds, "Whether this change, if desirable, is to be accomplished by general consent or by revolutionary methods is for the churches more than for any other body to determine."
Bishop Brent characterized the recent program of the British Labor Party as "the one great religious utterance of the war." Have you read it?
The Canadian Methodist Conference recently declared that the whole basis of civilization must be changed from profit to service!
Thus two great denominations.
What do you think about all this?
Yours very cordially,
ROSS W. SANDERSON,
Pastor of Plymouth.

Bradley Brothers Lost To Spring Track Team; Three Letter Men Back
Year
Haddock, Dewall, and Ralph Rodkey Prospects for This
Prospects in track are extremely good for this spring, according to W. O. Hamilton, although Orville and Everett Bradley, last year's two best freshmen will probably not be back. Orville is new working in the oil fields and Everett is in the infantry at Houston, Texas. It is hoped that Coach Hamilton may be able to secure Everett's discharge.
The Bradley brothers were considered the best all-round athletes in school last year, with the exception of Marshall Haddock, who was high point winner for Kansas in the intercollegiate conference and interclass meet for the freshman class last year by themselves. Other no freshmen were entered.
Haddock, Lorin Dewall, and Ralph Rodkey, are the only track letter men left in school this year. Charles Heizer, the best of last year's freshman pole-vaulters is hard at work; Jackson and Chandler of Westport High School, Kansas City High School, and O'Neill have last spring are working out, and will be in for a killing at the first opportunity. Maulkum is out for the varsity.
And last and most promising of all is Roy Pringle, high point man in both high school meets last year.
Athletes Wish to Earn Letter in Boxing Game
The Athletics Association is in favor of making boxing a regular sport at K. U. and of giving letters to men for proper interest and development in the sport. Men showing skill will be sent to amateur tournaments, according to W. O. Hamilton, manager of athletics at K. U.
The K. C. A. C. is planning to introduce boxing for amateurs and may hold a college tournament this season, according to Dr. Joseph Reilley, director of the club. Pete Gross is working with the men at the gym dally, but few men with ability have turned so far.

Censorship is Lifted in Letter from France
(Continued from page 1)
When we got into formation the battle cruiser was out in front of the fleet acting as scout. It traveled much faster than the rest of the fleet, thus cruising way out to one side and then over to the other. That was the beginning of our monotonous journey.
"I say monotonous and it surely was that for we were on the water seventeen days and we ate such rotten food. Those English certainly fed us some mighty poor stuff. The reason it took us so long to cross was on account of the zigzagging we did. However, we were much better pleased to take a little longer and stay dry than go straight and get a good ducking. We weren't sure that we wouldn't get it anyhow.
"We had quiet weather on the voyage, except for one morning. That day the sea was rough, the waves breaking over the top deck. This caused most of the seasickness we had. You can't get very sick on an empty stomach.
"We continued quietly on our way without seeing any other ships until one evening when we were two days off the coast of England. At about four o'clock we saw a sausage balloon coming out of the horizon. It was the first we saw of our convoy. A little later we saw the destroyer to which the balloon was attached. Still later we saw several other destroyers, ten in all, scattered over the horizon, approaching at a fast chase. They several miles ahead, their intended meeting us, on account of the course we had taken, and they were certainly making up for lost time. We were well into dangerous water. I don't know how the navigation was guided by information received by the ship's captain over the wireless telling the known whereabouts of certain submarines.
"Those speedy little destroyers were a welcome sight. They came slipping in and about the ships and were all over the water around us. After watching them awhile we felt pretty safe for it didn't take them more than a minute to get where they wanted to go.
"It was not more than two hours after the destroyers joined us that we had our first excitement. I had just finished supper and came out on deck when I heard a rumbling explosion in the water and felt the ship trembling. We rushed to the side of the ship to see what was going on. Some of the men climbed up the ropes and rigging. That is a great trait of the American—he must see all there is to see.
"About half a mile back several destroyers were converging on a spot and dropping depth bombs. It was these bombs we had heard and felt. Their explosion is supposed to be strong enough to destroy anything under the water within a radius of two hundred yards, especially a hollow tube like a submarine.
"Some officers claimed there had been "suba" there and that two of them were destroyed, but I am very doubtful of that. I thought I saw all there was to see from start to finish but no submarine did I see. Of course there might have been, but I have pretty good eyes and a poor imagination.
"So much for that, except that we had the same kind of excitement once more before we landed. Instead of docking in Liverpool as most of the transports were doing, we sailed up the English channel, through the Straits of Dover, where we saw the famous chalk cliffs and anchored at the mouth of the Thames. We had to wait there until the tide came
"At 5 p. m. we weighed anchor and sailed on up the river. I forgot to tell you that land was a mighty welcome sight—Columbus had nothing on us when it came to wanting to see land—and now there was plenty of it on both sides.
We dropped anchor in Tillbury, a few miles east, and a suburb of London. This was the evening of June 4. We stayed on board all night and the next day, June 5, we disembarked on English soil.
"From the wharf we took a train—they call them trains anyhow—to Winchester. The coaches look more or less like the cars I used to get for Christmas. However, they have plenty of speed. The train took us out around the main part of London, through the suburbs. The people gave us plenty of good cheer, but we didn't feel as good as we would have felt if we had seen something that looked like America.
"We stayed in this camp a couple of days during which time I visited Winchester and the old Winchester Cathedral. This was a fair camp and the food was still English, but it was good bread and plenty of good jam.
"On the morning of the seventh we left Winchester and proceeded to Southampton where we were to take the boat to France. We hung around in port all day and finally embarked
about five o'clock. We moved a few miles down the bay and anchored until eleven o'clock. It was here we saw our first submarine, but it was English. The boat started across the channel. We then started with the size of the one on which we crossed the ocean, but it still carried the same number of troops. It was so crowded that one could not walk around or sit down. Besides this, it was mighty chilly and it was so crowded below that I could not get down stairs. But after he had ever been hit by bombs-by soldiers. Fortunately, this agony was ended at eight o'clock in the morning. We landed in La Havre, France, at this time on June 8.
"We immediately marched into a rest camp—it was called that, but should have been named a workhouse—it was the dirtiest place I have ever seen. We were lucky enough not to have to stay here longer than one night, for the next night we left in our "cattle pullmans."

Dean Templin Returns From Wartime Work With Herbert Hoover
Head of K. U. College Directed a Division of Food Administration
Washington Job is Finished
Work That Was to Have Lasted Few Weeks Demanded Year's Service
Olin Templin, dean of the College, who has been in Washington more than a year with the United States Food Administration, returned to the University today, and has resumed his work in the College.
DEAN OLIN TEMPLIN
UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS, FRIDAY AFTERNOON, JANUARY 10, 1919.
Irish
"When I went to Washington, in November, 1917, I had no idea of remaining more than a few weeks," said Dean Templin. But every time I would suggest leaving some higher official would talk me into staying by telling of the large amount of work there was get to do.
NO PLACE FOR COLLEGES
"I left the University to go to Washington, on request of the chancellor, as the colleges and universities of the country were greatly concerned over their status in those somewhat confusing days. It was their earnest desire to help in the war, but they were at loss how to go about it. Accidently I suggested a plan which seemed to be favored by the other institutions regarding the colleges' work in the conservation of food. Chancellor Strong suggested to go to Washington to administer the plan, and I went. Instead of staying only a few weeks, I was immediately put to work and I had to remain.
'My official position with the Food Administration was director of school and college activities. The university here knows what the result of that work was. Lectures were given at every college and university throughout the United States, in order to put before the people the necessity of conserving the food.
SURVEYS COLLEGE SITUATION
"Besides the conservation committee I was a member of the proproganda committee, which had to approve all the literature and posters that were sent out over the United States. Food Administration is the literature the people who probably would not be reached by the lectures that were given.
"The last work I did for the Food Administration was on request of Mr. Hoover. He was specially interested to know the position the colleges and universities in every state in the union were taking on the food question and the instruction so that they could visit every school to see what the situation was. I visited all eastern and southern universities and then hit it for home."
According to Dean, Templin he does not intend to visit the rest of the schools because he believes he should be here, since the work in which he was concerned at Washington is practically over.
WASHINGTON WORK FINISHED
Dean Templin has been appointed a member of the committee to write a history of the United States Food Administration. The chairman of the committee has not been announced yet.
During the absence of Dean Templin from the University David L. Patterson, assistant dean, has had charge of the dean's office.
Verve Sprouts Afresh In Peppy Green Hall
Advanced law students are coming back from France and training camps every day to resume their work in the University and Uncle Jimmy says that there are enough of the old folks back now to give the old yell and out a lot of the old punch and jump into the U.
It is said to be worth risking an sar drum or two to run into Green Hall, where the law students spend their days, and take a listen and a look around. Those young lawyers have so much of real energy over there, even students of pedagogy wake up, and occasionally catch the fever of the rollicking, scrappy Law School.
One of the lawyers-to-be expressed the atmosphere over when he said, "they sure have the vervo, tons and tons of it."
And the men evidently like to "hang round" too, as dozens of them can be seen any time of day on the front steps, in the corridors, and even in Uncle Jimmy's" office.
Museum Gets Collection
From South America
H. C. Martin, assistant curator in Paleontology recently received a collection of different articles of Indian make from Brazil and Bolivia.
Jumnus Sends Indian Relies From Brazil and Bolivia To University
From Brazil comes a woven Indian basket. In the collection from Bolivia is a Llama wool belt andariat rope woven by the Indians of the Titicaca lake region. A string of monkey teeth supposed to ward off malaria fever is an interesting contribution of the civilisation of Bolivia. In the collection there is also a bark dress and a colored woven sash used by the same tribe.
Specialized Social Service
A Profession, Says Elmer
This entire collection was sent to the University by Allen Sterling, A. B. '16, and son of Professor Sterling. The articles were collected by him during his travels in Central and South America.
"Social service is a profession quite as much as law or any other profession," said Professor M. C. Elmer in a talk to the sociology major students Thursday afternoon. Ten years ago it was thought that society needed a social service work, but now it is realized that untrained workers are really a detriment instead of a help and trained workers are demanded."
Professor Elmer urged every student in the department who expects to do social service work to train along some particular line. To this end he has prepared outlines of the various courses the University offers that are necessary and valuable for different lines of social work.
"Pick out something definite," he said, "and work toward it. Find out everything about everything between yourself and that place. Plan to have, maintain, and be equipped with it. But through it all the spirit of service must be the compelling motive."
After Professor Elmer's talk, a business meeting of the Society Club was held. The following officers were elected: Nelle Hohn, president, Emily Ferris, vice-president; and Fanny McCall, secretary.
There will be a meeting of all Big Sisters Monday, at 4:30 o'clock, at the Hostess House, Myers Hall.
The Cafeteria will not serve an evening meal on Saturdays.
The next meeting will be Thursday January 16, at 7 o'clock. The Club will meet regularly from now on.

K. U. Extension Work Reaches Many People Of State of Kansas
Nearly 400,000 Kansans Are Served by Division in Last Year
Nearly 400,000 people of Kansas were reached by various forms of extension service of the University of Kansas in the year ending June 30, 1918, according to the statement of work of the extension service, contained in Chancellor Strong's budget, prepared for the legislature. This extension service included war conferences, community institutions, the correspondence study department and the municipal service department.
In the year ending last June, 1044 different students were enrolled in the correspondence department, taking 1373 courses. These students sent in for correction 13,244 manuscript lessons. Since the organization of the correspondence study department, 5843 students have been enrolled. Package libraries sent out during the year reached 54,370 persons.
"The amount naked for the geological survey is justified by the immense economic importance to Kansas of the work proposed for oil, gas, lead, zinc, coal, and other natural resources," says the chancellor's report.
The state service work, for which $52,050 is asked, takes care of all work (except medicine) done by the University for the State Board of Health in food and drug inspection, water analysis, sewage disposal, water supply, etc.; entomological field work; in sociological and in the geological surveys.
The municipal service department served 124 cities and towns of Kansas and answered inquiries for 598 calls. An officer asked for this department is $39,895.
Fine Arts May Organize For Student Activities
School Formerly Had Class Officers and Regular Elections
Organizing of the students in the School of Fine Arts into a distinct unit of the student body for fuller representation in student activities is being discussed among men and women of the school. Officers may be elected this year.
The public school music supervisors in the School of Fine Arts have organized as a unit but the school as a whole has not.
The enrollment this year in the School of Fine Arts is 215. Last year it was 227, for the entire year.
Several years ago class officers were elected, but the following year the student organization in the school was abandoned and has not been resumed.

Hash For Garments Motto of Ex-S.A.T.C
The men who have recently been discharged from the United States army are allowed to wear their uniforms four months to give them time to obtain suitable civilian clothing. A number of men on the Hill are availing themselves of this privilege but they seem to forget, or probably they have never been told that the uniforms are not for the same degree of respect as that worn in service, said an officer today.
Some men fail to salute while others wear any part of the uniform—the campaign hat with civilian clothes or the khaki coat and trousers with the civilian hat. However, it is permissible to use the army overcoat with civilian clothes. Any such departures as these mentioned from military laws is both unarmy and not respectful to that for which the national uniform stands, say military men.
Captain W. C, Hatch has written to headquarters for further information concerning discharged soldiers wearing military clothing.
Plain Tales From the Hill
IT CAN'T BE DID!
Have you your wound stripes and service stripes yet? They are all the age. Two women appeared on the amputus with 'em today.
Ray Hemphill who was manager at last year's Junior Prom is one of the most ardent supporters of the honor system. Harms, the new Jayhawk editor, is his right hand man too.
Macro, the house man at the 4th Fsi house early this fall answered the telephone and upon being asked a question he was unable to answer "Wait a minute sir, and I will call one of the other boys."
LEARN GRAFT WHEN FRESHMEN
This is a tip. The player piano in one of the down town confectioneries is an intelligent critter. Two seniors, names withheld, put a penny in the slot instead of a nickel, and sat back waiting for the pretty music to begin. But the thing didn't play. It groomed and creaked and thundered till the whole after-theatre crowd got wise to the crime.
It happened over in the chemistry laboratory. Somebody let a bottle of tear gas explode and groups of tearful students stood around in the hall. One of the professors, hearing the comotion stepped into the corridor and inquired casually "Who did What?"
Has anyone noticed that the slick side-walks have called the little boys out of Green Hall and made them sit on the steps between classes?
The Kansan in yesterday's Plain Tales column asks: "Did you write it today 1-9-1919?" After referring to the date line on the first page, would we say we wrote it 1-9-1919.
Students who are afflicted with instructors who continually and chronically skid over into the next hour, should report such occurrences to he "Head 'Em Off" editor of The daily Kansan. A list of instructors n today's "Head 'Em Off" column follows:

K. U. Will Plant Grove In Honor of Students Who Died For Country
Botany Club Proposes Living Monument to Those Who Fell
Memorial On Arbor Day
One Tree to Be Planted for 95 Men and Two K. U. Women
A "Hero Grove" as a memorial to all University of Kansas men and to the two University of Kansas women who gave up their lives in the world war to be planted on the University campus at a memorial Arbor Day service, is proposed by the Botany Club. The club is making tentative plans for appropriate arbor day memorial services at which a tree will be planted for each of the University's sons and daughters who gave their lives in the country's service during the war. If the University does not adopt the suggestion the Botany Club proposes to carry it through alone.
Definite plans have not been worked out as yet, but the club is proposing a grove of oak trees or perhaps some other variety of trees that thrive here be planted on some appropriate site on the campus and that in the grove a bronze tablet be erected containing the names of "our boys and girls" who have made the great sacrifice.
TWO WOMEN ON HONOR ROLL
Ninety-seven University of Kansas graduates and students have given their lives to their country in this war, so far as the University authorities have been able to learn. Thirty-two of these were S. A. T. C. men who died here. The others died on the battlefield, in camps, cantonments or on the sea. Two of the ninety-seven were women. Lucy McLinden of Cedar Point became a volunteer nurse during the influenza epidemic. This university hospital she contracted the disease and died. Fay Friedburg of Topeka died recently in Washington of influenza while in war work there. The University considers that these two of its daughters played their patriotic part in the war just as heroically and nobly as any of its sons who died in battle. Their names are to be placed on the memorial tablet.
K. U. MAN FIRST TO FALL
Dr. William Fitzsimmons the first American to fall in France after American troops landed there. held an A. B. and M. D. degree from the University and was a member of the Army. After serving in the Medicine. He was killed when the Hun bombed a hospital in which he was on duty.
The plans for the "Memorial Grove" were discussed at a meeting of the Botany Club Wednesday night at the body of Prof. W. C. Stevens. Professor Stessel spoke on the "Initiation of Arbor Day." He said in part, "J. Sterling Mortons orinal/g resolution initiating Arbor Day in Nebraska was adopted by the State Board of Agriculture January 4, 1872. Wednesday, the 10th of April, was set apart and consecrated as a day for tree planting in Nebraska, and the name "Arbor Day" given to it. Within ten years there was such sentiment in favor of Arbor Day in Nebraska that the state legislature passed an act designating April 22, the birthday anniversary of Mr. Morton, as a legal holiday, to be known as Arbor Day.
PROF. STEVENS ENTHUSIASTIC
"Kansas has celebrated Arbor Day since 1875 when it was declared a holiday by the governor's proclamation." Professor Stevens made it very emphatic that trees should be planted in all parts of our country.
"The planting of trees," he said, "in every section of our country is so important to our comfort and well being and should be so generally encouraged that it comes to be 'in the air' as we say, and so enlist the attention and interest of everyone.
"The idea of planting memorial trees is one of the most fruitful that has been injected into Arbor Day observance and the present war has furnished occasion for providing monuments to our fallen heroes and spreading branches will typify to the coming generations the protection and benefaction which those lives have wrought through their unselfish and willing sacrifices."

ED TODD'S RELIEF FUND
A down town paper printed two pictures the other day—pictures of starving Armenians. The next day readers called at the office to ask the editor to stop running such heart-rending illustrations.
Suppression of facts about suffering may save the feelings of comfortable citizens, but it does not relieve the sufferers. When conditions are so frightful that people of this country can not bear to think of them, it is time to dig more deeply than ever into the flattened purse.
Cruel ravages of war still mar the world, and while distressed peoples need assistance, we should give to the utmost of our ability.
In particular students of the University ought to contribute to the Armenian Relief Fund, for Ed Todd, a former student, is leaving with the Relief Commission. All the people on the Hill are proud of him and the University contributions will be credited as an Ed Todd fund for his relief work. Let's give all that's possible.
KEEP YOUR STUBS!
A letter from France says, "The cooties must think it is going to be a cold January. They are digging in for the winter." And they say hostilities have ceased.
Twenty checks have been returned to the University Cafeteria in the last month marked "no funds."
With the exception of one or two, these checks have been made good, which indicates that the students are not intentionally dishonest. This is not one of the evils that can be said to result from the S. A. T. C., for the manager reports very little of the trouble among the soldiers. Nearly all of the checks have been given by University women, who are apparently too careless to keep an accurate account of the checks they write. Perhaps they do not realize the inconvenience which they cause the manager of the cafeteria, but there is certainly no excuse for the insulted attitude which some of them assume when the matter is reported to them
It is possible that some of the women who have recently entered the University have never had the responsibility of financial matters before, but most of them are credited with average intelligence which is all that is required to keep an account of expenses.
Unless University women can develop sufficient ability to keep an accurate account. of their checks, they should make it a rule to pay their bills with cash and avoid unnecessary trouble for others.
A TRIBUTE
Dear, old Fraser, with all the comforts of home! The rats and the cats in the basement; a colored mammy or two; the delicious odor of pies and cakes floating enticingly up the stairs, grandfather's clock by Chancy's door; the chapel, whose sweet strains 'remind you of Sister May's morning practice. And then up the garrets step to 402,-dear old Fraser!
HARD UP FOR TIME
The fellow who never has any money with which to purchase all the little niceties of life that make it worth living, awakens the sympathy of most of us. No doubt he should be pitted, but the man who really lives a tortured existence is the one who never has time to enjoy what life offers him
As a matter of fact, of course, everyone has twenty-four uniform hours of sixty minutes each every day. But that doesn't keep us from being pestered by the person who simply never has time. For example:
He starts in to attack a lesson one of his professors has assigned, but all through his studying, he is in a constant agony because to get that lesson he is taking time from another of equal importance.
A freshman comes in to ask his advice on the best course to take. He really would like to study the case, for there is no doubt that if he knew the particulars he could help his young friend, but he simply hasn't time to bother with the fellow.
He hasn't time to rest; he hasn't time to study; he hasn't time to read; he hasn't time to write home; he hasn't time to enjoy life. We often wonder if he ever has time enough to do anything.
Time is money, it is true, and we should none of us be extravagant with it. But in the long run, isn't it possible that what few minutes these frantic individuals save in their boarding of time, is really subtracted from their lives by the worry is costs them?
The S. A. T. C. men who remained in school are opening up the seams of their old woolen socks and pressing them out. They make lovely rugs for the floor and it only takes one pair to cover the whole floor.
We notice that the girls do not act so thrilled lately when letters arrive from overseas. Presumably this is because the letters are no longer the only kind of male on the Hill.
The student with a real imagination says he would like to climb the flight of stairs on the facade of Spooner.
Whenever a girl makes a hat herself some of her girl friends are to remark, "Well it looks it."
There is a Senate ruling, passed last year but still in force, to the effect that all-University parties shall not cost more than three dollars a couple. The price of these parties is a fixed matter, and any student who is anticipating elaborate dances this spring will be disappointed.
War is over, but does that permit the common idea to prevail among many that it is perfectly all right to make unnecessary expenditure of money for a night's amusement?
A PLEA FOR SIMPLICITY
Many seem to think that because the war is over everything is settled. Our country has a great burden to bear and it should not be our policy to be wasteful. Patriotic students will not oppose the ruling which says the big parties of the year shall be reasonably priced and informal in dress.

In most of the recaptured French towns, when dawn came on that frosty morning of November 11, could be heard the jingling of harness, the squeals and braying of the mules, the swelling chorus of grumbling and shouting and laughter—the music of an American resilient waking up.
In the half frozen mud of one of the shot torn roads a Yankee lad—he might have still been in high school had he stayed in the States—met a little French girl of about 10-years, blue with the cold and visibly shivering in a thin, long wound gingham dress.

THE IMPORTANCE OF THE WOMAN'S FORUM
To the Editor of the Kansas:
All women of the University should, be interested in the work of the Women's Forum. "But what is the Woman's Forum?" I can imagine a large class of the K. U. women, including almost all freshman women, asking, "How are you going to define statement—for some knowledge and organization and its work must precede any interest which they may take in the matter.
Two years ago the Woman's Forum was organized as a result of the movement for more active political life for women, and its purpose is to help the women of the University to keep well informed concerning current events so that they will be better prepared to enter the broadened political field open to them. Every Thursday at 4:30 o'clock, meetings are held, at which a member of the faculty, some student, or an outside speaker gives an interesting and instructive talk on important topics of the day, which is followed by a general discussion. Any questions concerning the University as well as those concerned with it are welcome. The kind are gladly discussed. Some of the women interested in the organization also have charge of a bulletin board in the rest room in Fraser Hall, which they keep well supplied with interesting news items and good magazine pictures depicting the important events of the day, especially those concerning women.
Since the future woman leaders in the political and public life of this state should naturally, to a large extent, come from the ranks of the women now attending the University women should take a greater interest in the work of the Forum. They should not let the victories gained for them in the political field be endangered by their own unpreparedness, but should take advantage of every opportunity better fitting themselves with the political life of public life to take a vital interest in this organization, she would find it helpful and enjoyable, and could make it a valuable part in her education. It is not impossible that the women could make this organization of such importance that its influence would be felt in the future political life of Kansas, and even the nation. It's up to the women of K. U.

Are you worth it?
Your present life of splendid opportunity—are you worth it? What are you doing on the Hill? Having a good time? Fine! May you continue to do so. College means joyous friendships. University life means plenty of fun. That is a big part of it. But are you learning anything? Are you trying to become somebody better and bigger than you when you came here? If not, you are an ingrate—you are dangerously shallow.
Church
Are you ready?
You were born into this world out of a mother's pain and a father's anxiety. What you now are is the result of mother love and father love and teacher love and a host of kindnesses shown you through all the years of your childhood. Your present opportunity is the rich heritage of the labors of all those who died in the faith in the long ago, of martyrs of magy a century, of the pioneers of this great commonwealth, of the thousands upon thousands of sons as dear as you who marched their weary way out in despair before the unappeasable Turk before he bought with a price—the price of all history's achievements, the price of these last splendid years, the price of every Calvary, of every Suffering Servant of the Living God.
Care-free, all the world before you,
the gates of knowledge open for your
entry; and millions of men and women
and little children hungry and naked and homeless. Are you worth it?

Eastern Universities Add Athletic Coaches As Faculty Members
Lead of Western Universities Advised by Nat'l Collegiate Athletic Association
Resolutions that all colleges and universities should make their athletic coaches members of the faculty were passed by the National Collegiate Athletic Association which met in New York last week.
Dean Angell, of the University of Chicago, was a staunch supporter of this resolution and in his speech before the association said this was the immediate remedy of the evils which arise from the athletic coach having full sway over all athletics. He also said, that in this way football coaches would have to spend all their time looking after the college's athletics instead of two or three months each fall coaching football.
W. O. Hamilton, head of the department of athletics of this University, said it was very gratifying to the West to see the East adopt regulations which have been practiced here for many years. The Big Ten and the Missouri Valley conferences have used this system for a number of years.
"I do not believe the evils of an independent coach are as bad as they used to be," said Mr. Hamilton. "Of course the coaches are enormously paid, but' it is their business to see that the athletics of the season are a paying business. Nevertheless, I would not advocate an independent coach system. I think the standards of athletics are on a much higher basis where the coach is a member of the faculty."
"Scoop" Hill Again Visits

He enlisted in Company H, 137th Infantry, and was stationed at Camp Doniphan before he
Noted Baritone to Sing at University Concert
Reinald Werrenrath, baritone from the Metropolitan Opera Company, of New York, will give the second recital of the University Concert Course, in Fraser Hall, Tuesday evening, January 21.
While Mr. Werrennrath has never appeared in Lawrence, he is no doubt the best known of all the American baritones. Since 1907, when he made his first important appearance, he has sung in every large city in the United States, both in concert and in operatic. His repertoire includes a wide range, and his enunciation is so fine that no book of words is necessary when he sings.
At the request of Dan Butler, he will give here three groups of songs in English, a group of Grieg songs, in Norwegian, which he will translate before singing, and two of the great operatic airs.

was sent to an officers' training camp. Hill, who was well-known in Kansas athletes as quarterback on the K. U. team, replaced an eastern college man as quarter back on the Camp Sheridan team and was considered an important factor in the success of the team according to southern sport writers.
Mr. Hill was on the staff of the Topka Capital before war was declared and covered the legislature for the paper while he was in college. He is a member of Beta Theta Pi.

Baseball More Potent Than League of Nations, Asserts Prof. Humble
International Athletics Will Create Universal Fellowship,
Says Law Instructor
Vent World Ire on Umpire
Playing Shortstop Would Penish Kaiser, Suggestion is Made
"An international baseball league will do more than anything else to enforce peace among the members of a league of nations, according to an address by Dr. H. W. Humble, of the School of Law, at Plymouth Church Sunday night.
Sunday night, "In all seriousness," said Dr. Humble, "I believe that nothing can do more to bring about international good feeling and fellowship than athletic contests.
"That is the kind of thing that will cause people to get acquainted, and when we understand each other we will cease hating each other. The human race will always love a contest. If there is any hatred or wrath we must get rid of, we can all make in bestowing it on the impure unkind. If there is any insinuation that I like if there are all others to see inflicted on the kaiser, it would be to see some one knock a hotliner at him at short stop."
stop.
The subject of Dr. Humble's talk was "Democracyracy has had no more right to exist in Europe for the last century than a dinosaur on the streets of Berlin or the boulevards of Paris," he said.
"The flight of the kaiser into Holland, with his coat tails flopping backward toward Berlin, put an end forever to the notion of the divine right of kings. Yet this is not the end of all our woes, but one end of them. The troubles. When the people rule, they must shoulder the responsibilities."
Dangers of democracy are many, according to Doctor Humble. The Bolshevik and the I. W. W. are a peril to the order of the country, but he believes militarism is the greatest danger. Men with vision and courage are needed to face the new problems, problems of education, of religion, of government on a larger scale, he said.
Russian Language Wins Approval of Education
Dean Templin Wants K. U. to Have Russian Department
In spite of the fact that the Russian people are continually before the public eye, it is interesting to not that few universities offer courses in Russian language or literature. In sixty-odd catalogues of foremos. American universities examined, but seven were found to contain courses in Russian. Olin Templin, dean of the college, has several times suggested the necessity of offering such a course at the University of Kansas.
Elementary courses in Russian, which include grammar and composition, are offered by the Universities of Chicago, Michigan, California, Pennsylvania, Harvard, Columbia and Yale Universities. Harvard, Yale, and Columbia Universities offer advanced courses in Russian languages and literature, as do the Universities of California, Michigan and Chicago. The University of California, probably offers the widest field for a student of Russian language and literature, in the United States.
The necessity for the fundamental knowledge of the Russian language is becoming more apparent with recent developments, educators , as well as business men, are being convinced. The Russian language it is thought will be an important study due to the Russian situation, as Spanish has become, because of developments in South America.
Mrs. Hunter M. Meriwether, clubwoman of Kansas City, has enrolled in a short course in agriculture, offered by the University of Missouri. Upon the completion of the course, she expects to manage her 1,400 acre farm in Tennessee.

Returns to University
Lieut. Basil T. Church of Lawrence was discharged at Iowa City, Iowa, last week where he was a lieutenant in the Iowa University S. A. T. C and will enroll in the University of Kansas this week. Church got his commission in the second O. T. C. at Fort Sheridan last summer.
Church was the best man at tack on the freshmen foot ball team in 1917 and he was missed in the line this season. He came from Baker University, where he won his freshmen number at half back on the foullball team, and at guard on the Methodist basketball team. Church is a good all around athlete and will bolster up the Kansas line next fall.
Graduate Work Is Needed To Develop Intellectual Integrity--Dean Blackman
Dr. Hyde Tells Organization of Need of Social Hygiene
UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS, MONDAY AFTERNOON, JANUARY 13, 1919.
The Graduate Club held its first lecture-meeting Friday in Westminster Hall, Dean F. W. Blackmar of the Graduate School spoke on "The Value of Scientific Investigation." Miss Frances Dysinge sang "The Greatest Wish in the World," accompanied by Miss Lesta Alvord at an evening at Marjorie Rickard, Dr. Ida H. Hyle of the department of Physiology concluded the afternoon with a short talk on social Hygiene. Dean Blackmar said in part:
"A man must learn to do something after obtaining his A. B. degree. He must develop intellectual and moral integrity. His trend must be toward the vocational. He must have something upon which to stand when he goes into the world in order to use the better part of education.
"A school without graduate work cannot be a university. If we lose our graduate work we lose our standing among the universities of the United States and Europe.
"He is no real student until he goes into individual study. He is a regular student, still a slave, until he works out a theme for himself, investigates and reports. Do not think you are a scholar. You are a teacher. There is your subject. Are you a man? You have an A. B. Show your training.
"Scientific research is not only valuable to the individual but to the public. Knowledge that is gained is worth millions of dollars. Yet these finer things cannot be measured by money. They have a spiritual value. Scientific investigation helps everywhere. Discoveries in medicine in the modern hospital, in the laboratory are found for us.
"Investigations are made into the social world. We know little of the world we live in. We go up and down the country with our mouths full of democracy, yet we cannot tell about it. The world needs help. Curing a disease of society is as great as curing a disease of the individual.
"What our world needs, our social, religious, economic, democratic world, is two things: What we call intellectual and moral integrity, that we may see clearly and with judgment. If the United States fails to embrace this fifty years without an immense social revolution we will have to emphasize those two things.
Doctor Hyde appended to the graduate students for co-operation in promoting social hygiene. She said the government has set aside a million dollars for this work of social hygiene. Next year, $18,635 'will be allottee Kansas in case the state legislature will provide a similar amount. The movement is not only for the purity of protection of the present individual but of posterity. Oregon, which has had this social hygiene program five years, stands first in United States in health. Kansas ranks twenty-seventh.
"There is a need for intellectua-
views. Establish in yourself a stability.
In moral action reap your results.
Go and do. Find the way for
yourself. 'The truth shall make you free!'"

Kansas Mineral Wealth Needs Development, Says Faculty
State Geologic Survey Necessary to Kansas, Says Prof. R.C.Moore
Expert
Prof. Raymond C. Moore, state geologist, has written an article for the January 11 issue of the Farmers Mail and Breeze in which he makes a plea for a state geological survey.
Professor Moore in his article said that to pay the cost of victory and to win the greatest possible future development of our state and country Kansas must now turn to its natural resources. The state should be brought through its geological department after that department has been placed on an efficient business basis.
"The state geological survey," said Doctor Moore, "is an information bureau concerning the state's natural resources, its minerals, rocks, soil, waters, typography, and their peculiarities. It studies the state's chief stock in trade and helps development, it advertises. It does for the state what the industrial departments of great railroads do for them. It is a trustworthy, scientific advertising manager of the state's goods.
Professor Moore in his article also tells what the geological survey is and how it can be used.
There has been a state geological survey in the several years, continues Doctor Moore, but it has not been an adequate survey because it has been almost completely lacking in funds. About $40,000 is the lowest estimate of the money needed to begin this work in Kansas, he said. The proposed reorganization of the present department will place it under a special commission composed of the governor, the chancellor of the University, and the president of the state agricultural college.
"A live state geological survey will benefit you by the scientific study of the soil on your land and in your community."
Dramatic Club Names
Cast for Annual Play
Florence Butler and Webb Wilson Leads in Mrs. Bumpstead-Leigh
The cast for "Mrs. Bumpstead-Leigh," the next Dramatic Club play, was announced today. Florence Butler, known from her work in "Fifty-Fifty" last year, will be the leading lady. Webb Wilson, who acted in "Eliza Comes to Stay," last year, is the leading man. Other members of the cast are: Alphilde Larsen, Mary Johns, Florence Ingham, Marguerite Adams, Nadine Blair, Herman Flemming, Fred Stringfellow, Ed. Patton, Neal Carmen, and Payton Kavlar.
"It was with great difficulty that the judging committee was able to choose the members of the cast from the large number trying for places," said Prof. Arthur MacMurray, member of the judging committee. "Some very good actors were not given parts because of the natural adaptation of others" for those parts in the play. The cast chosen is equal to that of any play ever given at the University."
The cast will begin work on the play at once. The first practice will be in a different room.
“Mrs. Bumpstead-Leigh” will be presented early in March. The cast will have two rehearsals a week at first and more frequent practices later. As usual the play will be staged at the Bowersock Theatre.
Announcements
"The spirit in which the contestants tried out for the parts in the play was unusually good this year," said Herman Hangen, manager, who is helping the work for the good of the cast, rather than individual honors."
The Sachems, honorary senior society, will meet this evening at 9 o'clock at the Acacia house.
Basketball practice for women will be held as follows: Freshmen, 6 o'clock, Wednesday, January 15. Sophmores, 6 o'clock, Tuesday, January 14. Juniors, 6:15 o'clock, Wednesday, January 15. Seniors, 6:15 o'clock, Tuesday, January 14. All women who wish to play interclass basketball should be out at this time.

Arthur Nevin, whose songs were so popular in Y. M. mixers the first of the year and during the existence of the S. A. T. C., will lead in mass singing. An orchestra organized by Chuck Shofstall will play at the meeting, Mr. Farker said. Prof. W. B. Downing has a tambourine number, the nature of which has not been disclosed.
The boxing probably will be between men who are training under Pete Gross in the department of physical education. The refreshments are to be prepared by the department of home economics.
"These mixers have been well attended in the past," Mr. Parker said. "They should be valuable and interesting to all the University men in affording them a chance to meet their fellow students and form new friendships. The program is made up of snappy and interesting numbers, and we assure all the fellows they will have a good time if they attend the mixer. By holding it in the gym we will have room for all the men students, and we expect to see a large attendance."
Hill And Town to Join In Obtaining $10,500 For Starving Armenia
Four Million Will Die in Near East If America Doesn't
No drive for the Jewish-Armenian Relief fund is to be made on the Hill, but students not residents of Lawrence are to be asked to contribute through their fraternities or boarding houses, it was announced this morning by the city committee, of which Henderson S. Martin is chairman.
Solicitors in the various wards of the city will include University instructors and employees along with the other residents. In other drives this winter the University has contributed as a unit, through committees under the direction of Prof. U. G. E. Hicks. The University is not asked to be a unit, but to join with the people of Lawrence in the drive.
The call this time is for $1,500 in Douglas County, one-fifth the amount asked in the seven-in-one drive last November. The need, however, says Mr. Martin, is tremendously pressing. "Last Fall we gave liberally to provide tobacco, reading rooms, and comforts for our soldiers in France," said Governor Martin, "now we are asked, not for addition of resources"—but for their services of life. For there are in the Near East almost four million people on the verge of starvation. America alone has the resources for giving to this need, and the facilities for getting the supplies to the starving people.
Entomology Club Initiation
The Entomology Club hold initiation Friday night at the home of Prof. H. B. Hungerford. The following students were taken into the club: Eva J. Batchman, Lois Burke, Martha DeWald, Lucille A. Edgar, Grace Gaskill, Lucy Hackman, Alberta Mack, Flock-Myrtle Sallee, Grace Welling, Edith White, Fred Butcher, and J. Wallace Shaw. The following club members were present: Professor Hungerford and family, Prof. J. E. Lawson and family, Mrs. Edna Cooper, Mrs. Helen Tapener, Agnes Brady, Opal Holmes, Mary Larson, Jeanne Parkinson, Lieut. Ted Lawson, Forrest Anderson, and William E. Hoffmann.
Men Now Considering Honor Plan for K. U
The honor system plan, received by the Women's Student Government Association, has been referred to the Mens' Student Council, and it is expected that the council will co-operate with the women and indorse the plan.
"The class elections seem to be of greater importance now," said Erich Moore, chairman of the W. S. G. A. honor plan committee, but after over the enthrancement for the honor prize is expected to be revived."
Information on the experiences of other universities with the honor system is being compiled by the committee.
Plain Tales From the Hill
The down fall of the American Army took place at the Varsity dance Saturday night, owing to too much wax on the F. A. U. floor. It happened during one of the dreamy, gliding waltzes. The woman with the captain struck a slick place, and down she went. Her gallant escort accompanied her. In trying to extricate her from the dirt on the floor he sprawled on all fours and walked over her prostrate figure as though he were a cavalry horse instead of an officer in that branch of the service.
It was the scintillatingest spinster on the faculty who remarked to the new professor of astronomy, "What happened? You have for studying the stars."
The essence of this remark lies in the fact that the new astronomy prof. is tall, quite tall, yes, indeed.
A fraternity man was reading The Daily Kansas and said, "Say, why is it that they announced our two pledges to be the corner of the front nace today?"
they use small things like that for fillers," answered the journalist. "Fair enough. We used the man for a filler."
A stranger was riding on the street car past the eight barriers near McCook field. A student was sitting across the aisle from him and he asked, "What buildings are those, young man?"
"Those," the student answered, "are the summer school buildings. The university authorities believe in much fresh air, so they build those for the men."
A uniform even lures university women to take astronomy. A young, handsom major, who is discharged from the coast artillery service, has a class in observational astronomy, three times every week. To date, he reports not an absence for any of the women enrolled.
One of the strong minded junior women, in speaking of the coming attractions at the theaters in Kansas City, remarked that she intended to go to the city the last of this month to see Jane Addams, in a play, at the Shubert.
Havinghurst Visits K. U.
Lieut. Clarendon Havinghurst, former student in the department of journalism in 15—16, stopped off Saturday on his way to Fort Sill where he is now stationed, to see old friends and professors. Lieutenant Havinghurst was prominent in debatingCircus shows, with number of Delta Sigma Rho, and debating against Oklahoma and Nebraska. He was also a member of the Acomas and Sigma Delta Chi.
Shipment of Spanish Books Badly Damaged
Bindings Are Ruined But Read ing Matter is Not Harmed
The shipment of Spanish books which have just been received at Spooner library, are badly damaged by salt water. Being ordered from Madrid last July and instead from Madrid last fly or express were sent in small packages by mail. Many contain the most important to the end of the present condition of the books.
Although bindings on the books are ruined the reading matter is not harmed. The books are all contemporary literary works in Spanish. And according to William Dean Howe are more important than any other contemporary productions ever written.

THE FOUR-QUARTER PLAN
The University of Kansas is again in danger of falling behind other educational institutions. The all-year, or four-quarter plan, condomed by the University Senate has the endorsement of the leading educators in the country. A further investigation might be profitable both to the University and to the students.
President M. L. Burton of the University of Minnesota, Dr. Charles H. Judd of the University of Chicago, Dr. Frank M. McCurry of Columbia University, and Dr. F. P. Bunker of the national bureau of education, all express hearty approval of the all-year plan. President Wilson, Commissioner P. P. Claxton of the bureau of education, Secretary F. K. Lane of the department of the interior, Josephus Daniels of the navy department and Secretary of War N. D. Baker recommend the continuous school.
The decision of the University Senate, preceding the holidays, was based, apparently, on the showing made by the system last quarter. Whether or not the Senate members were justified in their conclusions remains to be proved.
Superintendents of public schools in many cities are urging that the all-year school plan be adopted. It has been a success where it has been given a fair trial. It would seem that the plan is as applicable to state universities and colleges as it is to elementary schools.
In Newark, where the four-quarter plan has proved a success, a committee of educators made a careful investigation of the system and submitted a report commending it.
"From the student's standpoint, the all-year school plays an important part on the economic side of a student's life, in that it permits him to make a greater advance educationally. Not only that, but his school advancement eventually improves his economic standing," says the report
Of the two hundred pupils interviewed, everyone enthusiastically supported the all year plan. Among these were students who said they would have dropped out of school through discouragement if it had not been for the possibility of making up work in the summer quarter and there were students who said they would not have been able to attend except for the all-year plan.
The more careful grading, the more frequent promotion period, the more continuous habits of work and recreation, were among the features of the quarter-system pointed out by the committee.
Alternation of summer teaching among members of the teaching staff so as to avoid overstraint and "ruts" was suggested by the committee.
The schools in many of the largest cities either adopted or are cementing aboard these four-question plans. Parents and teachers have ex-
If the University of Kuala Lumpur will keep up with life after graduation elsewhere by educators, why not begin now? We can at least consider the new plan from an unbiased standpoint. The unpleasantness of the last quarter should not influence anyone against the four-quarter system as the results would 'have been as disasters in a two-semester state.' If it too much to hope that the Senate will not condemn, permanently, without investigating and considering correctly the advantages and the disadvantages if there be any of the four-quarter plan.

ENFORCE THE POINT SYSTEM
In the eligibility committee, composed of University faculty members, going to determine the eligibility of candidates for various offices on the Hill before or offer the coming election? The committee has been in operation for several years, but during the past two years has not really enforced its rulings. Students have run for different offices, not knowing they already held the limit of points in students activities, and then have been notified after the decision that they were illigible.
There is no reason why a few students should hold every office and appropriate all the honors in the University. The Chancellor said recently, in discussing the values of the point system that the "woods are full of capable people." All they need is an opportunity to show their capacities.
If K. U. has an eligibility committee, it should do business. Enforcement of the rulings of the point system will eliminate the careworn student who spends his time at meetings, and give a number of enterprising men and women an outlet for their energies, and a chance to carry off some of the honors.
THE WASTEBASKET SPEAKS
I am the wastebasket. My interest is conservation—the conservation of waste. My purpose is to treasure up waste till I overflow and someone, roused from lethargy, takes pity on me and removes the discarded things I have been keeping.
Just now my sides are bulging with an enormous quantity of waste material, mostly paper. Crushed in the bottom is a letter Mary Louise wrote to the man overseas. It is an insistent protest against his "cruelty and thoughtlessness" in failing to write. Why the letter never was sent I do not understand. All I know is that it was thrown at me, and soon after another letter was given me, torn into bits, too small to read though not so small that I could not recognize the handwriting of the man over seas.
Here, too, is the wrapping of a chocolate bar, and a handful of peanut shells is scattered through the paper. A wad of wrapping paper, an old newspaper, a crushed pastboard box, a bulky mass of notebook leaves covered with notes on class lectures, a handful of old political cards; these help constitute my contents. On the floor just out of my reach is a discarded theme, flung hatefully across the room.
These are part of my assets. I am important; remember me.
I am the destination of a multitude of things. I am the laven of the poor, the ragged, the forsaken. I give rest at the end of many weary lives.

One of the pleasing circumstances in the students' army training corps in the Kansas State Agricultural College was the character of the officers. Capable, honorable, and devoted to their work, they gave fine services to the government and made a place for themselves in the life of the college. The institution is glad to have known them—Kansas Industrialist.

When the matter was put to a vote the result was 25 to 30 against the establishment of the training unit at K. U. Thus three members kept an R, O, T, C. out of the state University. is K.

To The Daily Kansas:
Students who complain about the number of hours required by the department of public speaking fail to consider the benefits of dramatic work. They believe that a long week of try-outs every afternoon and every night, hard labor in the hours in between working out the characterization of the part, annoying reading to show off your own talent and that of the other contestants, and then six weeks of hard rehearsals, giving up many pleasures and getting lower grades in school work are not worth while. And especially when the final outcome is only three hours upon the stage.

Is all this a waste of valuable young life? There is another side to be considered. The long hours of drilling with the cast and doing of things that previously seemed impossible for you to do, not only build up the character in the play, but also leave their imprint upon your character.

The friendships made in working together on one big proposition are invaluable to a young man or woman's life. Mutually working together for one end brings members of the cast, the crew, and their families, to a close acquaintance. Activities of this sort are the work of big men and women.

What right has any faculty member to deny 'University students the advantage of the training they would receive in such a unit?'
The University of Kansas has been known for its excellent dramatic productions. From the interest already shown this year, this season will be no exception. Seventy-five students tried for places in the annual Dramatic Club play; nineteen women tried for one part. No play in which this much interest has been shown can be failure. This interest also shows that students value the training received in such undertaking.
Regardless of the fact that 1,55 men who are students in the University of Kansas petitioned the University Senate to institute a Reserve Officer's Training Corps at this echo when the matter came up for discussion, the student opinion on the matter was entirely ignored by the master.
To the Editor of the Kansan;

The burglar had entered the house as quietly as possible, but his shoes were not padded and they made some noise. He had just reached the door of the bedroom when he heard someone moving in the bed, as if about to get up, and he paused. The sound of a women's voice floated to his ears. "If you don't take off your boots when you come into this house," it said, "there's going to be trouble, and a lot of it. Here it's been raining for three hours, and you dare to trump over carpets with your muddy shoes on. Go downstairs and take them off 'this minute.'"

Time is Drawing Near For Casting Ballots In Popularity Contest
No Jayhawkers to Be Sold After January 19—Cast Ballots January 20
January 20
"Have you ordered your 1919 Jayhawker?" said Lynn Hershey, manager of the "Peace Book," today.
"If not, be sure and see any one of the pretty girls who will sell books all this week for their favorite candidates in the Popularity Contest, which closes January 19. Absolutely no books will be sold after this date, for the Popularity Election which will be similar to the regular elections, will be held on April 29. This election eight candidates represent the highest number of votes will represent the Beauty Section in the 1919 Jayhawkier."
Beginning Tuesday, the Peace Book will be sold in several of the buildings on the Hill, so that every one who has not had an opportunity to subscribe for the annual will be given that opportunity. This representative book of the University of Kansas will contain a record of the activities of the S. A. T. C., a humorous section that describes the military achievements of K. U., which will be complete; besides the usual sections of th book.
Many inquiries as to the cost of space and pictures have reached the business manager. The dues of all seniors are $8.00, including picture and space, and a 1919 Iyayawinter. The cost for picture and space in the junior and sophomore sections is $1.00. The pages in the organization sections cost $12.50 a page. All glosses must be in by January 25, which includes all individual pictures and groups.
The Jayhawk business office in the old Kansan office will be open every day so that all glosses may be turned in at once.

Extension Division Puts Courses in Topeka High
University Credit Given Ir American Government and European History
The extension division of the University of Kansas is planning to install two courses in the Topeka High School. Courses in American Government and Citizenship and in the History of Contemporary Europe have been announced by A. J. Stout, superintendent of the Topeka schools. Prof. George H. Derry will instruct the first course and Assistant Professor Sullivan, the second.
The points covered in the course of citizenship are: The new civil conscience emergence from world war, cooperation for service, personal participation in government and individual responsibility under a democracy, forms and functions of government machinery, municipal progress, community development, constructive philanthropy and practical projects of reform.
The history course covers a period from the close of the Napoleonic wars to the present time, and is intended for those who wish to make an intensive study of political and social development in Europe during the past century.
Two hours credit in University work will be allowed for each course. French classes have already been organized and will soon be under way and it is hoped that the other courses will become just as popular.
Book Exchange Moves To Alcove in Fraser
About 270 Books Have Beer Sold This Year by the Exchange
The W. S. G. A. book exchange is now permanently located in the alceve in the main corridor of Fraser Hall, immediately in front of Prof. W. H. Johnson's office. The exchange has previously been housed in Professor Johnson's office.
John M. Shea, superintendent of buildings and grounds, has placed a large desk for the use of the exchange. The desk is of quarter-sawed oak and contains three sections of shelves where six or seven hundred volumes may be stored. If a student desires access, however, only time during the quarter, he may secure it from Miss Sellars in Professor Johnson's office.
About 270 books have been sold this year, according to Rilla Hammet, who is chairman of the W. S. G. A. committee in charge of the exchange. The books ranged in price from eight cents to seven dollars. About $750, has been taken in for the books sold. The exchange collects 10 per cent of the sale price from the owner of the book, which goes into the general fund of the association.
It is announced by those in charge that the exchange will be open next Tuesday and Wednesday, January 14 and 15, when those who have left books may get their money or take unsold books.
A large number of students have called for texts in economics and sociology. The demand for these texts has been met, but the number of French grammars and physiology texts has been too small to supply all who called for them.
Until last fall the exchange was under the control of the Men's Student Council, but when the S. A. T. C. was organized the work was taken over by the Women's Student Government Association.

Classes in Economics
Overcrowded This Year
Students are flocking to the department of economics this year according to members of the department faculty. The women of the University seem to have overcome their fear of these courses in business, and more are enrolled in this department than ever before. The four instructors are unable to take courses of so many classes instructor to teach Elementary Economics will probably be employed by the beginning of the next quarter.
Seventy-five students are enrolled in Accounting I, a three hour course at 11:30 o'clock, and the class will have to be divided into two sections.

Jones will be eligible for football next fall, since the Valley coaches have decided to call this a blank year because of the S. A. T. C. With Jones, Church, Marxen and

Former U. Student Runs S.A.T.C. at Clarksville
Changes Unusually Few
The enrolling at the University has been done with more order and less changing in classes than has been done before. Mrs. Esterly, secretary to the dean of the college, said that there has been less late enrolments and less changing of classes than in former years. This has come about because of the fact that the organization of the school has been disrupted by the changing from the semester to the quarter plan, and the changing from S. A. T. C. back to the normal life of the college.

Simple Social Life Will Continue at K.U. Says Adviser of Women
With Part of World Starving Conservation Still Neces-
UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS, TUESDAY AFTERNOON, JANUARY 14, 1919.
Kansas Spirit Commendable
University, Not Outsiders, Will Set Its Own Wholesome Standards
That the social life at the University should be kept down to the simple basis that it has been on during the war was the expressed opinion of Miss Alberta L. Corbin, adviser of women, today. Miss Corbin believes that students should become acquaintae with a larger circle of other students than they have hereforeo. Concerning class elections Miss Corbin said, "Such a very small percentage of the classes know the students that they vote for in class elections. If the social life at the University were more democratic and broader this would not be true. Students would be acquainted with a majority of their particular class at least.
The conditions that exist now are somewhat due to the fact that we have no suitable meeting place for the entire student body. If we had Commons where the whole student body might meet, we could plan many all-University gatherings. I believe it would be a good plan if we had Commons where the entire student body could be given, perhaps every two weeks."
NEED COMMONS BADLY
In speaking further of the social life at the University, Miss Corbin said:
"The question has recently been raised as to whether it is necessary or desirable to continue the simplicity of social life that was obtained at the University until peace came, and in large degree still obtains. In the first place the signing of the treaty of peace is probably still months away. In the meantime, the teacher be said to have arrived until the suffering of millions of sick and homeless and starving people in Europe shall have been alleviated.
STILL NEED FOR SAVING
"We saw by the "hunger map" printed in the Kansan, January 6, that no European country has an entirely adequate food supply. On January 5 there had appeared in the newspapers President Wilson's message to Congress in which he said that people in certain areas are faced with absolute starvation and that 'with the omission of the American people to find a remedy for starvation and anarchy renders it necessary that we should undertake the most liberal assistance to these destitute regions.'
"Up to the present, the conduct of social affairs at the University under war conditions has been commendable, as far a I have been able to observe. I returned to Lawrence last fall after a visit to ten American colleges and universities. I found the attitude at the University of Kansas toward the world situation inferior to that in none of the schools that I had visited.
"If the students of the University sense the situation, no question will remain in their minds as to the desirability of saving. There is no reason why there should not be a reasonable number of social affairs, or vice versa. Very good thought why no large sums of money should be spent on them.
K. U. SPIRIT COMMENDABLE
The members of the women's council and of the Women's Panhelenic had taken action that had contributed largely to create the right sentiment. They had faced the problem squarely and solved it rightly. The University may well be proud of them.
"I believe, too, we shall hold fast permanently to the best lessons in social life the war has taught. There are signs of a growing feeling that University social life should be put on a somewhat broader basis. Small social groups, as they exist at present, should continue. Probably more such groups should be formed. But students should know more than their own small groups. They should know the members of their own class and meet them in informal friendly intercourse. Otherwise they cannot share intelligently in the social and political life of the University, can neither
develop the best that is in them, no
give the highest service to others.
"The opportunity for a broader am
more varied social life has hitherto
been lacking, but the agencies already
exist through which it can be created.
These agencies are the men's and
women's councils, the faculty advisory
committees and student interests
committees.
"The war has revealed the power of leadership of college trained men and women. Social standards, too, will surely be created by college people themselves, not imposed upon them from without. I expect the so-called best thought of the student body to be same and wholesome for wartime and for all time, and to be worthy of all friends of the University."
Instructors in the department of economics are planning a trip to Kansas City for the members of the beginning economics classes. They will visit a number of factories and large business concerns.
Economics Class to Visit Kansas City Factories
The students will be taken through the houses in a different manner from ordinary visitors in order that they may study the business systems used. They will study the different uses to which waste and by-products are put. The instructors intend to take the students through shoe and furniture factories, the Ridower-Baker Wholesale Store, the Dressmaker's works, and Peet Brothers Soap Factory. They will also visit the Federal Reserve Bank.
The trip will be made soon, according to Prof. John Ise. The party will leave on an early car in the morning and will return late in the evening. Other economics students besides those in the elementary classes may arrange to go if they so desire.
S.A.T.C. Unit May Quit This Month Says Madden
"It probably will be the thirtieth of the month, before the S. A. T. C. unit here will be finished entirely," said Lieut. John Madden today. "We are holding eight men for duty, three of them in the adjutant's office, and five on the ground." In the station B men, who intend to go home when they get their discharges."
The officers still on duty are just waiting their discharges. The details of closing up are occupying their time now. Five army trucks are still in the possession of the S. A. T. C. headquarters, and no one knows as yet what will be done with them. The five drivers are being retained in case orders to take them overland are received.

Doctor Goetz Chosen By Y.W.C.A.to Give Lectures In Hygiene
Dr. Florence B. Sherbon Will Assist in Local
NUMBER 56.
Work
Dr. Alice Goetz, head of the department of physical education at the University, has been chosen by the Y. W. C. A. to give lectures to women and girls during February and March. Doctor Goetz receives her appointment through the central board of the Y. W. C. A. whose duty it is to choose the lecturers in the Social Morality Campaign. A convention of lecturers was held at New York in December to which Doctor Goetz asked that Dr. Florence B. Sherbon be sent. Doctor Sherbon will aid in the work since Kansas has more work than one lecturer can do. She will talk to women in several Kansas colleges.
Doctor Goetz will give lectures on social morality to freshman women in the university at the close of the week and to other women students in March.
Doctor Goetz wears the pin of the Volunteer Medical Service corps for active service in the U. S. Public Health Service in combating the influenza epidemic last October. She was sent to Winslow, Ariz., to organize influenza relief in co-operation with the other public health officers. She was then sent to Williams, Ariz. to organize a relief campaign, as there was only one doctor within a radius of many miles and nearly 300 people were ill with influenza and pneumonia.
She established an emergency hospital in forty-eight hours in the school house with separate wards for men, women and children, and a diet kitchen which was fully equipped. She organised the citizens into a committee to answer the questions to take charge. The hospital accommodated seventy-three patients.
Viola Engle, chairman of the membership committee of the Y. W. C. A, said today that a total membership of 560 had been reached in the campaign the week of December 3. Of these 262 are new members and 200 memberships carry over from last year.
After her work in Arizona Doctor Goetz was dangerously ill for several weeks with influenza and pneumonia.
W.S.G.A. Will Entertain In Honor of Miss Corbin
The Women's Student Government Association will entertain with a tea in the rooms of the adviser of women in Fraser Hall Thursday afternoon to 3 to 5 o'clock. The tea is in honor of Alberta Cabrion, adviser of women.
The University band will rehearse Wednesday night at 7:30 o'clock in Fraser Hall. All S. A. T. C band members who are now in the University will be in the line-up. Anyone who has not tried out for the band in the try-outs that have been held this week, but who would like to play, may join the orchestra or be a soloist for J. D. C. McCanles, director of the band said the greatest need now is for trombones, clarinet, one alto and a bass drummer.
All women of the University have been invited through their house, presidents. Women members of the faculty also are invited. The members of the W. S. G. A. will be in the receiving line.
Mrs. Maureen McKernan Wood of Topeka and Agnes Hertzler of Kansas City visited at the Alpha Chi Omega house this week.

Prof. Nevin's Sons Receive Seven Medals For Service in War
Hardwicke Nevin Has Fouragere Tricoleur and Cross of Legion of Honor
Hardwick Nevin, son of Proi Arthur Nevin of the University of Kansas, has received five decorations for bravery while in service in France. He is a member of the Foreign Legion and the entire company in which he fought was given the cross of the Legion of Honor. Because he was only twenty years old he could not get in any real fighting but was driving an ambulance at the time of the German advance at Villers-Cotteter when his ambulance was wrecked. All of them were German Germans but one, the French française. Hardwick Nevin thought of Alan Seeger and asked Colonel Rollet for a job in his company. He was wounded during the hard bayonet fighting of the next three days but it won for him the most coveted of all decorations given by the French government, the Fournère Trouleau.
"We drove them back—and back. I heard hell singing all the while, with the devil as end man," he wrote. This is a characteristic reply from *son of Professor Nevin who is a composer of distinction and a nobilist* of *Professor Nevin one of the greatest melodists the world has ever known*.
Mrs. Nevin is bacteriologist in a Red Cross Hospital in France and the younger son is an ambulance driver in Italy. The two brothers have received seven decorations between them.
Each Student is Asked To Give Food for 3 Days
Only 17 Cents Will Feed Starv ing Near East Victim a

Food for three days is what University of Kansas students, residents of fraternities and sororities, will be able to eat in. The starving people of the Near East.
Translated into American money, this is 15 cents, for 17 cents will sustain a day in that country. A committee of students today was named to present the matter at each fraternity house, and to have the collection taken. Funds are to be collected and turned directly to I. R. Meade, treasurer of the Douglas county committee. The University student committee consists of Martha Banker, Eulalia Daughtery, Earline Allen, Charles Slawson, and Luther Hungen.
The Lawrence city schools are taking their collection by the milk bottle method, each class room striving to fill a bottle with coins to buy food for the sufferers in Armenia, Syria, and other countries of the Near East.
Ensign John Barline of Topeka, visited in Lawrence yesterday on a furlough. Ensign Barline was enrolled in the college three years ago. He is a member of Phi Delta Theta. He will leave next week for New York.
The Blackfriars, departmental club for students in the department of English, has reorganized for the year, with Frances Hitchock as the new president. The organization has planned to meet every three weeks during the school year and study the English or Irish drama. It is also planned to stage some of the old dramas in simple form.
Blackfriars Plan Work And Elect New Members
A letter from Earl W. Shinn, formerly a law student on the Hill, was received by the Dean of the School of Law this week, in which he said that he was now at his home in Burns, and he would return to his work here. He had just in the airplane his works as an inspector in the aircraft production in Detroit.
The new members elected to the society are: Wanda Ross, Marguerite Reinish, Helen Robb, Imra Lutz, Elizabeth Samuel, Elsee McNutt, Helen Glaves, Margaret Mitchell, David Gloeswa, Margaretta Jeffery, Annahra Stewart, Margaret Brown, Eva McCanies and Charlotte Carnie.
Kansas Men Back From Camp
Eight coaches of Kansas boys come posing a troup train from camp Ben jamin Franklin, Md, passed through Lawrence at 12:20 o'clock Tuesday afternoon on their way to Camp Funston to be discharged. The train stopped for a few minutes in North Lawrence at the Union Pacific station, a crowd soon gathered and the air was full of Rock Chawk and other K. U. yella. Many K. U. men including Floyd Hockenhill and Lester Patterson were on the train and intend to be back in college in a few days.
Plain Tales From the Hill
Little Sunny Bud Owens who stays at the Phi Chi house is one of the best trade rushers for the University cafeteria. Some university students were standing out in front of one of the eating houses yesterday waiting until they could be served. Sunny Bud approached them and upon finding out their trouble pointed his litter and said, "Myes. Hall said, 'Yes, you have to wait a long time for anything to eat at this restaurant but if you go over there where the picture of Jesus is, you don't have to wait a minute."
One of the Kappa freshmen is in great distress. She just got one of those new fur coats that are so popular this winter and now she is going to the Phillipine Islands. All people who are interested in buying the coat will please see the freshman at once.
One of the latest slippery stories out is that of the man who went down fourteenth so fast that he mistook a potato near a pool of water for potato soup. The steam was probably included also.
The morals of the freshmen women this year show a decided improvement. In one of the rooming houses, recently the women had a "truth meeting," and asked all the freshmen to come.
The topic of the discussion was "Kissing."
"Now," said one of the freshmen girls, "that is one thing I am radiated with. Why. I can count on my ten fingers, the men who have ever kissed me."
Just a tip to the admirers of the returned heroes. If in doubt as to what branch of the service a man has been in, just look at the cut of his hair. If he has been in the navy, you can just stake all your money on it that his hair will be parted in the front and back of his body and sticks straight up, he has been in the army in the United States. If the covering of his pate is almost a minus factor, and quite non-descript, well he's from over seas.
No! No one has died over at the museum! Calls came in to the University Daily Kansan office all day yesterday from students asking if any one was dead over at the museum. Upon being informed by the journalists that the animals, birds and similar things were the only things at the museum dead, each inquirer became highly insulted and would say "Well, then, why is crepe hanging on the door?"
C curiosity got the best of the journalists and a squad of investigators went to the museum to see what was the matter. A black cloth, which the man who was putting the new name on the door of the building was using was draped around the door knob.
In speaking of the interesting places in Kansas City to visit, in one of the economics classes recently Professor Ise, said, "Oh, you students haven't learned the good places in Kansas City yet."
Asks Bids on Removal of University Barracks
"The University has asked for bids, for the removal of the barracks," said John M. Shea, superintendent of building and grounds. "Nothing in regard to the barracks will be disregarded. We are atitude of the War Department has been achieved, as the government may desire to use them later on."
K. U. Man With Capper Paper
V. G. Sorviner, c'16, who returned last month from a short session in the army is now with the Cappen Publications as advertising manager of the Missouri Valley Farmer. He was advertising manager and also editor of the Clay Center Dispatch-Republican before entering the service.

Men's Student Council Preparing Class Lists For Class Elections
Two Stenographers Making Impromptu Student Directories
Election Date is Thursday
Two Tickets Appear in Every Class But the Juniors This Year
The election will undoubtedly be held Thursday of this week. Herschel Washington said. The student Council has two stenographers at the office of the registrar, tabulating the names of the members of all classes.
Petitions for two sets of candidates for class officers in each of the freshman, sophomore, and senior classes, and for one set of candidates in the junior class were handed in to the president of the Men's Student Council by Monday night. The names of the candidates endorsed in the petitions will be placed on the ballots of the election.
The following is the list of persons or whom petitions were turned in. These names will appear on the election ballots as they stand, President Washington said, unless there are objections or corrections.

Doughnut Sale Held By Home Economics Class
"Doughnuts, nice fat doughnuts,
just like Mother makes and only three
for a nickle, six for one thin dime."
The members of the Home Economics department were not saying this in Fraser today but they looked it. They were too busy selling to say very much of anything.
The instructors of the department found it necessary to give the members practise in preparing large amounts of food, and then to prevent the food from going to waste, it was profitable to sell it to the students.
This practise will be continued irregularly during the remainder of the school year. The money obtained will go to the department.
Two Former K.U. Men Meet on Way to Front
LePort Spangler, formerly a student in the department of journalism, writes from France that he has been vounded and expects to return to the United States soon. He is with lace Hospital 22 now.
He was in the fighting September 26 and was hit by a German machine gun bullet. He is now with a combo of arms and is outfitting for the states.
He tells of seeing Bill Studer, another former student in the department, on his way to the Verdun front, who was in charge of a platoon in Company B, 137 infantry during the fighting in September.
Capt. L. B. Flinton, U. S. Marines,

ELECTION PROPAGANDA
will the coming University election bring back annual outburst of yellow literature which the University has fought and nearly obliterated?
Only one class ticket resorted to mud-slipping tactics last year. They did not profit by its use. Politics on the Hill should be straight and any students contemplating the publication of the usual pamphlets containing material to their opponents' discredit should think the matter over. It will not pay.
The propaganda usually breaks out in the freshman class, because the new men are easily influenced by a few older students who have no real regard for the University. In the past some of the new men have not fully appreciated the Kansas method of fair dealing.
It is better to lose in a fair fight than to win by foul means. That is a policy of the University of Kansas.
A type-writer is one of the few animals which will bear a great deal of pounding and still give service.
Three days of vacation in March Come on, boy, raise us five.
CALL OFF THE MEETINGS!
There are too many student organizations on the campus. Now that things are beginning to assume their normal order, there is a meeting of some kind or other scheduled for every minute of the student's time outside of class. If he attends each of these he comes up the next morning only half prepared for recitations. Every department in every school has organized and always seems to have some urgent business to discuss before its members. A man is lucky, (or perhaps out of luck), if two or three of the meetings which he is supposed to attend do not occur at the same hour.
The average student has class work until three or four o'clock and at that hour of the day he wants to go home and relax his mind by doing a few of the things he really wants to do.
Is he allowed to do so? Once in a semester, perhaps. Every department in which he is interested urges him to attend its meetings. If he does not, he is branded as indifferent and irresponsible.
If one can get along without being a member of anything besides the classes which he came to the University to attend, he stands a fair chance of making good grades. Do this, however, he must be a reacuse.
K. U. students would live considerably longer, and would doubtless learn just as much, if this annual epidemic of committees and meetings
could be checked. The average amount of work really accomplished at such appointments does not justify the time and energy expended.
THE DAY APPROACHES
There will be an election Thursday,
following which the excitement will all be over. Those who have attained
greatness will be pleased, those who
have missed it will not be deeply
grieved, and every one will have enjoyed it.
FACULTY SHOULD INSTALL
HONOR SYSTEM
Every one endorses the honor system, but who is going to put it into operation? This system means too much to all University students to let it go by default. It is practically impossible for K. U. men and women to make it effective. The plan must be put into active practice by members of the faculty.
A committee from the University Senate should be appointed to arrange the necessary regulations to establish the honor system. This should be done at once before interest in the matter has been dropped. The regulations should be uniform for the entire University and should apply to all classes.
THE GREAT ADVENTURE
Only these are fit to live who do not fear to die; and none are fit to die who have shrunk from the joy of life and the duty of life. Both life and death are parts of the same Great Adventure. Never yet was worthy adventure worthily carried through by the man who put his personal safety first. Never yet was a country worth living in unless its sons and daughters were of that stern stuff which made them die for it at need; and never yet was a country worth dying for unless its sons and daughters thought of life, not as something concerned only with the self-evasion of the individual, but as a link in the great chain of creation and causation, so that each person is seen in his true relations as an essential part of the whole, whose life must be made to serve the larger and continued needs of the world. It is said that the man who is not willing to die, and the woman who is not willing to send her man to die, in a war for the great cause, are not worthy to live. Therefore, it is that the man and woman who in peace time fear or ignore the primary and vital duties and the high happiness of family life, who dare not beget and bear and rear life that is to last when they are in the graves, have broken the chain of creation, and have shown that they are unfit for companionship with the souls ready for the Great Adventure.—Theodore Roosevelt in his volume, The Great Adventure.
COLLEGE VOCABULARIES
The vocabulary of the average college student is limited. And even within these limitations many of his words are slang phrases. The chief reason given for this is in the psychologist's view that people are be ridicule. And this frequently happens when anyone uses a word out of reach of his "crowd."
The college student who persists in feeling around for words is laying up for himself a fund of invaluable knowledge. Even though he may flounder somewhat at first, his end will be achieved. Dr. Abbott says, "The mistakes which make us useless are better than the mistakes that keep us out and this disposition of some college students to increase their vocabulary, even though they may blunder at times, should be admired by all." The Cornellian.

LET THEM REST
While our government was removing from the battlefields of the South the bodies of its soldiers buried there, and from the graves of those who were killed in the national cemeteries, Eugene Ware of Kansas wrote the following lines, entitled "The Protest," which in view of the fact that he was the planned removal of the body of his son, Lieutenant Quentin Roosevelt, to this country, and of the alleged policy of our government for the return of these fallen heroes, France, would appear specially appropriate—Milneapolis Journal.

Dear Roomie:
I'm a town girl and my kid brother poured water on the front steps just before my date came for the dance Saturday night. Of course it froze and Pete fell down three times on the way in. And, Roomie, he said such awful things that I can never forget them. For me I broke two dates, and then he said worse things than ever. What shall I do?
Dear Eveline:
Eveline.
Train your little brother. He started all the trouble. Of course, you had a right to break the dates, but your date had a right to swear, too. I do not approve of profanity, but I think you were too harsh with him, considering that it was your own brother who caused the trouble.
Dear Roomie:
Took my girl out to Aunt Sylvia's Sunday, and she kept seeing a light-haired woman in my fortune in the cards. As She is dark, She won't speak to me anymore. Durn! Bill
Cheer up! If your girl has such a jealous disposition as that, she is not worth worrying over. There are 98% other girls on the Hill, and not all of them are that kind. Roomie.
Dear Bill:
I've fallen in love with the cook at a boarding house where I call every day, but the matron always comes down to talk to me and I can't get a minute alone with me as she lives, either. Should I call up at the house and ask for a date after the dinner dishes are done? Grocery Boy.
Dear Roomie:
That would be a fine plan. But as some houses object to calling the cook to the phone, you will have to use a little diplomacy. When you ask for her, say, "This is Western Union," and they will be sure to let her talk to you. Roomie.
Dear Boy:
Dear Roomie:
Is coke liable to wear out? I mean will I get good results from it if I drink it every day or will I have to increase the dose next quiz week?
Personally, I don't know much about coke, but I have a friend who knows all about it. He says that when you get the habit you'll have to increase the number every little while. He's had as many as eight a day and lived to tell the tale, but I would advise you to go slow.
Dear Roomie:
Dear Student:
Student.
The Theta freshmen stole my pet
shall I appeal to the police or

Roomie.
Dear Madam:
They say cats always come back,
and as it is not customary for K. U.
women to commit murder even on cats,
I believe your pet is alive and
happy and will return. If it does not
come soon, call at the house and explain to the girls that you are home-sick for the kitty. Roomie.

Dummy O'Leary To Put K.U. Track Team Again In the Valley Running
Last Year's Track Captain Has Re-enrolled in the University
Lieut. Dorman O'Leary, captain-elect of the Jayhawk track team last year and one of the best quarter-milers K. U. ever had, has received his discharge from the air service at Kelly Field, San Antonio, Texas, and has enrolled in the University this week.
O'Lary's return means that Coach Hamilton's track team will probably again be in the Valley running, as "Dummy" is without a peer in his favorite race in the Valley and, with Fred Rodley, he was the mainstay of the relay team. O'Lary has a record of 50-1.5 seconds for the quarter mile and was invaluable as anchor man on the relay team. He will be the captain of the relay team this year, automatically, according to Coach W. O. Hamilton, as he had been elected to fill that position last year before his enlistment.
Lieutenant O'Leary enlisted in the Engineers in the old National Guard, at Topkea, in the early part of April, 1917, just a few days before the declaration of war. He was sent from the National guard company to Camp Greene, N. C., as a member of the Military Police. He was transferred from that branch of the service in February and in March was sent to the Ground School at Columbus, Ohio, fr training in aviation.
O'Leary spent two months there and received his commission as second lieutenant in aviation at the Wilbur Wright Field July 30, 1918 from which he was again transferred this time to Payne. He remained there until November and received overseas orders early in that month.
He started for Hoboken on the morning of November 11 and waited there one month before receiving further orders, this time, transferring him to Kelly Field. He received his discharge from that place only a few days ago.

The Chicago Cubs will meet the Kansas City Blues at Kansas City in a pair of baseball games April 19 and 20.
The men in the boxing classes are getting some good workouts and many are complaining of sore muscles. They will be given periods for swimming from now on as that is a good developer and will condition the new men in a short time.
A big athletic carnival is being planned for the athletes who are still "over there" and all sorts of sports will be run off on schedule style. The Allies will get a chance to see the Americans in action as athletes and learn a little of the American style of playing and running.

Leach and Hoover will be there to incite enthusiasm and help send the basketball team away to a victorious triumph.
Plans are being made to have a regular "rough-neck" mixer in about three weeks. The men are to come in their old clothes and notices will be sent out beforehand that any man who appears in white colored clothes will be tossed in a blanket as he enters the door. Joy will be unrestrained on account of the lack of restrictions on their etiquette. Among the stunts to be pulled off are barrel boxing, titling contests, cage ball, hand grenade battle, big stage dance and lots of other features that are of more or less interest to a "red blooded" man.
NUMBER 57
"Mrs. Bumpstead-Leigh"
Going Great, They Say
The first rehearsal of "Mrs. Bumpstead-Leigh," the Dramatic Club play, was the most successful first practice of any play given in the University in the last five years, according to Prof. Arthur MacMurray, who is coaching the play. "Some of the cast know their part best," said professor in enthusiasm in working in the play," said Professor MacMuray.
The cast of twelve characters was chosen last Friday after more than a week of try-outs. Practices will be held regularly until the play is presented, in March, "Mrs. Bumpstead-Leigh" is to be the supreme production of the Dramatic Club this winter and will be presented at a down town theater," said Professor Mac Murray.
Extension Department Serves Training Camps
Influenza, war. S. A. T. C., and high cost of living has added a heavy enrollment in the University Extension Department. At least a dozen calls have come from various camps not yet demobilized. Not only from Riley and the nearer units, but from camps along the coasts. One request for work reached the Department from France.
Of those nearer home who are interested in the extension work, the larger proportion seem to be from the cities rather than the farm; a rather unusual result were it not for the fact that so many teachers are among those enrolled. Shortage of help on the farm and elsewhere has kept many from regular attendance but they are continuing their work. This work has been especially handy for ex-S. A. T. C. members, and half a dozen have already taken advantage of the opportunity offered.
A division of the R, O, T, C, will be organized at the University of Colorado at the beginning of the second term, and drill will be compulsory for all first and second year men in the University.
Y, M. Hut to be Salvaged
Frank E. Parker, secretary of the University Y. M. C. A., has received word from the National War Council of the Y that the hut for the Students Army Training Corps, which was left unfinished after the signing of the armistice, is to be torn down and salvaged. Definite instructions to proceed with the work are now being awaited.
a. U. Spring Baseball Up to Valley School
petition
Only Thing to Prevent Spring Athleties is Lack of Competition
The University will have a base-ball team this spring if any of the other schools of the Valley play ball, according to W. O. Hamilton, manager of athletics at K. U. Kansas will show off his skills in Missouri and Missouri may decide to play.
The Tigers are planning a goo track schedule but believe their three quarter plan will ruin baseball prospects for the season. Baseball and track, come at the same time and according to K. U. fans, the Missourians could have a baseball team if they have a track team in the field this spring. Baseball has always been a game of choice for the Tigers and they are not quitting baseball for this season because of financial reasons.
Kansas will not let the financial end of the work interfere with athletics, as K. U. always loses on baseball, but always has a team and will have this year if any other team in the Valley shows up, Kansas students want baseball, and the athletics association is willing to give it to the men. It is up to the other schools in the Missouri Valley conference to come out and put a team in the field if they wish to keep the game. Kansas is not dropping baseball because of finances but lack of competition.
The baseball prospects are exceedingly bright here with the return of most of last year's team and the first year team back.
Prof. Skilton Elected to English Musical Society
Kansan is One of First Americans to Be so Honored by Foreign Society
Among the first of several American musicians to be elected to membership in the Musical Society of England is Charles S. Skilton, professor of music in the University of Kansas. The society, which is the oldest organization of its kind in the world, was closed to all but Britons until very recently. Professor Skilton's compositions are gaining high standing among English musicians. Of the four American compositions that the Queen's Hall Orchestra of London included in its orchestra this season, one was Indian dances by Professor Skilton. They were given at the orchestra's Promenade Concert, directed by Sir Henry Wood. The musical editor of the London Daily Mail gave Professor Skilton's works an extended and favorable review and in a personal letter of congratulation to Professor Skilton spoke of the commendatory reviews that appeared in other English papers.
Conference in Topeka
A Y. M. C. A. conference for religious workers from Kansas schools and colleges will be held in January 15 and 16, Dr. Arthur Braden of the Christian Bible Chair, Dr. F. G. Dill of Westminster Hall, and Prof. E. F. Engel of the department of German, will attend from the University.
The W. S. G. A. Book Exchange in Praser Hall will be on Thursday and Friday morning from 8:30 o'clock to 10:30 o'clock. Persons who have left books may call for them or receive their money if the books have been sold. All books which are not texts will be donater to the Red Cross unless called for before January 25.
Students Call for Checks
Fifteen former students of the University of Texas have registered with the American University Union at London, Paris and Rome.

Sibley Says Moist Air Does Not Cut Coal Bill
Can Not Save Fuel by Providing Moisture in Heating Ar- rangement
Moist air does not cut the coal bill according to F. H. Sibley professor of mechanical engineering in the University of Kansas, although there is a popular notion that providing moisture in the home heating arrangement, saves fuel.
"The fact that a room heated with moist air at 65 degrees seems more comfortable than a room with dry air there is more evaporation from air thethee is more evaporation from rain, which of course coats the body.
"To get water evaporated and up into the rooms as moisture, requires as much heat as would be consumed in heating dry air several degrees above this temperature," said Mr. Sibley. "This is because it takes energy which is the same as heat. It also reduces the moist air to 65 degrees, as it does to heat the same degree of dry air to 70 or 72 degrees."
"In the case of using a steam system of heating, fuel is saved to some extent, because a drip-cock on the radiator can be opened and the steam let out into the room. The steam is already at the temperature of the room and consequently does not have to be heated."
The juniors of the School of Law hold their class election Tuesday morning, and the following were elected: Donald Long, president; Saldon D. Butcher, vice-president; Hamilton R. Fulton, secretary; Arthur C. Lomborg, treasurer.
Donald Long Elected
Junior Law President
Class activities have started with a hum now, and although the juniors give no separate annual social function, they are strong aids in the success of the Law Serim. The managers of the Serim will be announced this week, and also the committees appointed for it.
Illinois won the first basketball game of the season from the Millikin college quintet. The score was 97-17.
New System of Rating Devised By Committee For Kansas Teachers
Educational, Professional and Personal Are Factors to Be Considered
A new point system of rating teacher for appointment has been devised by the Appointment Committee, composed of Dean F. J. Kelly, Prof. A. T. Walker, Prof. U. G. Mitchell, Miss Elizabeth Sprague, Prof. Arthur Nevin, and Prof. W. H. Johnson.
Under the new system every one who applies for appointment will be put into one of the four grades of applicants. There are three factors or which the applicants will be rated educational, professional, and person at.
Under the educational head the applicant will be rated on intellectual ability, knowledge of the 'subject', and ability to express his thoughts. In rating the professional standing efficiency in the classroom, faithfulness in duties, and co-operation will be considered, and for the personal factor, physical appearance, personal appearance, and ability for leadership.
Ratings for each of these factors will be made by the major department, minor department, educational department, and the supervisor of practice teaching.
"This new system will be a more efficient way of rating teachers than we have ever had before," said Professor Johnson, secretary of the committee. "It will eliminate the per- and nonexistent need, and, in fact, will make the whole system of appointing teachers more fair and more efficient."
All Individual Pictures Must Be in February 15
Jayhawkers Will Be Sold Only Until Tuesday, January 21, Says Editor
"All students of the University who wish to have their picture in the class sections of the 1919 Jayhawkher, should make appointments with the photographer at once, and not wait for the notices to be sent to them," said Marvin Harns, editor of the Annual. "The task is to determine it is impossible to obtain all the names and addresses of students from the registrar at this time."
The time limit for the return of all glasses at the Jayhawker office in the old Kansan office; has been extended to February 15, which is the final date to be set by the managers of the Annual. All glasses and prints must be in the hands of the engravers on that date.
A new feature in the fraternity section of the Peace Book has been introduced by Fred Rigby, editor of that department. Each fraternity will have a small box at the bottom of its page, giving the total number of men in the service at the time the armistice was signed, and also the names of the members who have been killed in action or died in the service. This will give the fraternities a permanent record, and will be a feature the Jajhaywak will never be able to repeat in future years.
Thursday and Friday will wind up the sales campaign, with the popularity election Tuesday, January 21. The Jaywalker is being sold by a number of girls in Fraser Halt, Administrators Holding, Snow Hall, and Marvin Hall.
"Only three days remain in which to buy a book which will be in effect a history of the war as it affected the people of Kanaos," said Mr. Carmas today.
The following girls are selling Jahawiers; Katherine Sawyer, Eloise McNutt, Charlotte Carney, Dorothy Powell, Louisa Maurie, Betty Samuel. Geraldine Brown, Margaret Ramsayer, Geneva Kunkle, Neil Gunn, Helen Shields, Julia Mount, Edna Moore, Martha Thompson, Esther Moore, Helen Cook, Hester Jackson, Mary Bushner, Alice Docking, Erma Strong, Dorothy Spencer, Pauline Puls, Lucie Baumgavndar, Rheen Robertson, Katherine Bucher, Martha Banker, Edna Lamb, Pauline Newman, Flora Sallee, Thela Holdefer, Grace Coleman, Helen Barnett, Alice Perkins, Catherin Oder, Walters Josephine Huani, Doria Dror, Nadine Blair, Irone Ifthen, Agatha Kinney, Lois Hunt and Ellen Van Sandt.

T. W. Benson Dies in France
Thatcher Wyllys Benson, a former student in the School of Law, died in France December 13. He was with the field signal corps, and was one of the first Kansas men to enter the army, enlisting at Iola at the beginning of the war. His home was at Independence. He was a member of Sigma Nu fraternity. This makes the fourth gold star on the Sigma Nu service flag.
Plain Tales From the Hill
It is bad enough to be an ordinary student in the University of Kansas but its just naturally awful to be the business manager of the 1919 Jayahawker, according to "Swede" Hershey.
The first thing that "Swede" does every morning is to make out a memorandum for the day. The latest one was found on his desk reads like this:
2. Laundry
3. Lois
1. Breakfast
4. Ouyhaire
5. Margaret
4. Jayhawker office
5. Marga
6. Lamoh
7. Jayhawker Pictures
The rest of the memorandum did not pass the censor.
The east and its customs is rapidly being introduced into the west. Lawrence is to have its first public Tea Dansant, Saturday afternoon. The question that is bothering the men of the University is whether or not they will have to drink tea, if they attend.
An old man who evidently was visiting the University for the first time today was mystified at the crowd of students surging around the bulletin board. He approached one of the students and asked what was the trouble.
"Why nothing at all," the student answered, "just everybody is going home to lunch and are stopping to see the new election tickets that are
"Bully for the University," the old man yelled, "I thought sure there was a dog fight."
At the banquet of the Jayhawne Board last night, Fred Jenkins, assistant snap shot collector arrived late, and could not eat a thing. The Jayhawner staff became alarmed over his apparent lack of appetite but it was learned that he had forgotten him and had eaten at the Phi Delt house.
"Well, the Phi Delta have better eats than most of us," said "Tub' Hobart." "When I get through eating at the Sigma Chi house I can go any place and still be so hungry that I could eat the table."
It's just a little too much to have students from the art class sit by and draw a picture of you in all of the unugly shapes that the instructor in the department of physical education makes you get into. This happened yesterday in the gymnasium, classes, the students in the "life" class were sent over to the gymnasium to catch the young Annette Kellerman in their graceful movements.

Arrangements Complete For Anti-Graft Voting At Elections Thursday
Council Members Will Be Stationed at Each of the Polls Tomorrow
The locations of polls for the class elections Thursday, were announced today by the Men's Student Council. The polls will open at 9 o'clock in the morning and remain open till 4 o'clock. They will be watched by members of the Council to prevent crooked electioneering and voting.
Freshmen will vote in the west hall of Robinson Gymnasium, first floor. Homer Eagles will be the Council member in charge of the polls. Sophomores will vote in the basement of Snow Hall. Marvin Harms has been appointed to watch proceedings at the sophomore polls.
The polls for the junior class will be in the basement of Fraser Hall. George DeVoe is the Student Council guard for this class. Seniors will vote in the basement of Green Hall, with Dutch Lonborg as the guard from the Council. Herschel Washington, president of the Council, will watch election proceedings in general, visiting all the polls. These Student Council members will be at the polls all the time during voting.
A complete list of judges has not been compiled. The Judges are to be chosen by the Student Council from students running on all the tickets.
The rules for election stipulate that there shall be no electioneering within the building on the floor where the polls are located. Student Council guards are to report and stop violations of this rule, President Washington said today. Gang-ups and miniature caucuses on the stairs leading to the polls will not be permitted, it was announced.
"Everything is being done by the Student Council," Washington said, "to keep graft and questionable dealings from this election. While we do not expect to find crooked work, we will ensure that no student is one trying such tactics. Students will vote in individual booths and will be carefully checked off as they vote."
The lists of class members may not be complete, Washington said, and some names may be omitted. Students whose names do not appear on the proper list, he said, should get statements of classification and eligibility from the registrar's office. If their names are not on the liigs, they cannot vote until they present such certificates.
Votes will not be counted fully till after the polls have closed, which will make the count late Thursday. The votes cast in the morning may be counted at noon and the results given to the Kansan.
Several persons on the lists of candidates were found ineligible by the eligibility committee of the University Senate. Who they were has not been disclosed because, it was said, some of the candidates could probably fix up their eligibility, and harm would be done by making public the findings of the committee. If in the final check, some are found ineligible, their names will not appear on the election ballots.
Werrenrath Will Sing

The Daffy Kansan aims to picture the university of Kansas; to go further than merely printing the news by standing for the ideas she favors, to be clean; to be cheerful; to be leave more serious problems to wiser heads in all, to serve to the students of the University.
WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 15, 1919
WHY NOT THE GOVERNOR?
The governor of Kansas has told the story of the fighting Thirty-fifth to most of the state of Kansas through the newspapers, and to a distinguished part of it in a lecture at Topeka. Why can't he, some time after the ceremonies of inauguration and changing the administration are over, tell the same story to a University convoction?
The University has more than a passing interest in the Thirty-fifth. It's own company is with the 137th Infantry and many former students are scattered through its ranks. The Thirty-fifth fills a big place in the University's thoughts.
Such an address would impress the first convocation of the school year with a quality not often found in University gatherers. The University has been too scattered in its interests. Each part of it has been going its own separate way. It has lost its perspective on many things. It needs to get together on something. It wants the governor.
At a meeting of the Board of Administration of the University on January 23, 1915, a resolution was adopted to name the museum "The Dyche Museum of Natural History" and to have that name carved into the door of the building. The contract for the carving has never been let, but on Monday, January 13, 1919, work was begun on painting "Dyche Museum," on the glass of the door. Which is getting around in a little less than four years. Not so bad!
The students are grieved to note that few professors realize the importance of Inauguration and dismissed class to attend. The inaugural ball was an occasion at which they might have won great political victories for the University by appearing in their frayed dress suits of the vintage of '84.
AID TO THE ARMENIANS
Fifty-one cents, an amount sufficient to maintain the lives of three Armenians for one day, is the sum each member of the sororities and fraternities in the University is asked to contribute to the Jewish-Armenian Relief fund.
Fifty-one cents will not make a great dent in the allowance of any of the members of social organizations. But it will save a human life. Four million Armenians are on the verge or starvation and food must be furnished at once.
No drive for this fund will be made on the Hill, but students should do their part through the social organizations, to aid in this relief work.
THE CHARGE OF THE LIGHT BRIGADE
One would suppose that the day of destruction is past, now that the war is over and hostilities have ceased. Another vandal, as irritating, if not as deadly in intention as the Hun, still exists and is at large. He is the freshman who breaks the large globes which light the campus, and appropriates the electric bulbs for use in his own room.
Some fraternities have given their freshmen instructions to do this sort of thing. Their purpose is unknown, since no stretch of the imagination could lead one to believe that such activities are humorous or clever. The only explanation is that the older men are unable to buy electric lights, and are forced to use those purchased by the University.
University property should be protected, and persons destroying or appropriating it should suffer exactly the same penalties as if they had broken a plate glass window down town. Citizens of Kansas have no extra funds to spend for lights for the few remaining specimens of the practically extinct species—the rah-rah boy. Especially since the man who takes an electric bulb off the street is not likely to take it home and use it for studying.
ARE YOU AN I W. W. ?
Do not laugh at the student who picks up a handful of snow and consumes it avidly. He belongs to the large organization of Mount Oread people who are calling it "I Want Water" these days. For an organization with a socialistic title it is not getting very far. Its object, aims and ideals are to have drinking water on the Hill. Its plan of action and working program have not yet been arranged, or at least, not yet perfected.
There is the thirsty worker in the laboratory who stoops to imbibe moisture at the faucet and there is the faint journalist who makes a paper cup and drinks at the sink where the pressamen wash their hands. Most pathetic is the strenuous student who gets to the point where he drinks his shower after an hour of lively gym work.
If we must drink city water, let's have it in the fountains. The methods of getting it which are being used now are picturesque, but inconvenient. While we drink the city water, we can remember the promise of the city commissioners that the new filtration plant will be installed within four or six weeks. Within three or five weeks, to be exact, since the promise was made last week.
Recent novelties among inventions are advertised as follows;
Fluid Driven Motor - Utilizes water and wind as its power. New marvelous invention offers great possibilities.
Toy submarine that will submerge and emerge continually, from half to an hour, without being recharged. A camera specially devised for making pictures of finger prints left by yegrenmen on looted safes. It is supplied with electric lamps which provide illumination to make the exposure, and requires no focusing—Outlook.
The dangers of sea travel are not yet entirely over, owing to floating mines. A recent Admiralty order according to "Shipping," warms people against the sinking of these mines by rifle fire near the coasts. Sunk in this way, it seems, the mines are liable to remain as an underwater danger close to the bottom of the ocean as of this order." says "Shipping" "should serve to remind us that there are still thousands of mines at large, and that the task of clearing the seas will prove no light one."—Outlook.

It expects graduates of its great schools to have thought their way out through the maze of the incidental into the realm of the absolute. They are to be masters, not creatures of history; they are point to the lode-star of man's self.
THE RELIGIOUS FUNCTION OF
THE WOMEN'S CHRISTIAN
ASSOCIATION
True greatness, true poise and power are conditioned upon a mastery of the problems not simply of matter, but also of soul. The most dynamic graduates of an institution are those who have mastered the art of vitalizing scientific love by saturating it with the urge of a spirit that has caught the vision of the things beyond.
H. C. THURNAU.
From this point of view the institution which strives to encourage the experimental development of religious consciousness among the young women of a great institution deserves the most whole-hearted recognition and unqualified support of both the students and well wishers of the new generation.
There can be no question but what the Young Women's Christian Association in the University of Kansas is performing in the religious field a service second to no other organization that touches the life of women students because in the midst of the many sided demands which are made upon the time and strength of the student population it reiterates and reemphasizes the eternal values in terms of which life succeeds or fails. The unanimous opinion of those who have felt the benign touch of the ideals which animate this organization coincides with the thought just expressed that the University of Kansas is incalculably richer and is able to render a more vitally human service to the young women of the student body because of the activities of this organization.
Raymond A. Schwegler.
To the Daily Kansan:
COLLEGES FILL GAP
The Kansan was mistaken in its statement that the eligibility committee should enforce the point system, since the point system is not a Senate ruling at the present time. It was not mistaken however, in its assertion that the committee should notify students of their eligibility while they are candidates, and not after they are elected, if it is to serve any purpose. The committee should not under the jurisdiction of the eligibility committee now, but if it is to be enforced at all, it should be a part of the work of that same committee. The committee should have the authority of the Senate to enforce it.
Furthermore, it is unnecessary for the Senate to adopt any point system governing student activities, as both student organizations, the W. S. G. A. and the Men's Student Council, have approved sets of rules fully covering the situation and can enforce these rules if they consider them worth while. However, if they feel unable to do so and care to report to the chairman of the eligibility committee, with the names of all students holding too many offices under the point system, he will be glad to co-operate with them in their effort to relieve offenders of their surplus "honors."
In the Kansan of yesterday there appeared an editorial attacking the Senate eligibility committee for its failure "to enforce the point system." As chairman of this committee I should like to state that it has never enforced any point system and has never been asked by the Senate to do. The eligibility committee is concerned only with scholarship, its function being to enforce the rules of the Missouri Valley Conference in so far as they may be applied to non-admitted students. Of the editorial statement to the contrary, the committee has been performing its duties during the past two years, as several former members of the Kansan Board are able to testify.
Great as has been the work which the colleges did during the period of the war, they are destined to perform an even larger work in the era of reconstruction which is now upon us. The colleges have already given their best. They gave by the thousands, but the period of reconstruction is going to demand tens of thousands. Leaders are going to be needed in every department of the social, the judicial, political, and educational life of the world.
It is the duty of colleges to train leaders to take the place of those who sleep on the battlefields. It is the duty of every lover of education to help support these institutions in the accomplishment of this heoric task.
The trained leadership of our allies in the world war was sacrificed. One writer says, "There are no young men left in France except the cripples and incompetents." The same statement can be made of both Italy and England.
At the outbreak of the war it was the college men of the allied countries who first rushed to the colors. The Universities of Rome, Paris Oxford, Cambridge, Cambridge, and Oxford. During the first three years Cambridge sent 11,000 men and Oxford sent 12,000 men into the armies of Great Britain.-The World Call.

Basket Ball Team It Good Condition For Ames Contests
Practice Tonight Is Last Work Out Before Games With Ames Aggies
With a strenuous practice Tuesday night, Coach W, O. Hamilton has whipped the University of Kansas basketball team into good shape for the Iowa Aggie series at Ames, Iowa, Friday and Saturday nights. A light practice tonight at 7 o'clock will complete the week's work before the games.
The team is in fine condition, and the men are working together in mid-season form. Bunn at forward is working well with either Harmus or Lonberg at the opposite position. Matthews was never in better shape, and he is heavier than he was last season. The tall, lanky center can be counted on for the tip in the Vase and he is also near the Vase and Mason are a pair of steady guards, and are working well together. Both men are good shots for the basket, and can be counted on for their part in the scoring.
Missouri defeated Ames twice last week, and a double victory for Kansas will give the fans a chance for a comparison between the two Missouri Valley enemies. Ames has a fast team however, and gave Missouri a pair of hard-fought battles, and Kansas will have no easy time with the Aggies, according to Coach Hamilton.
The practice Tuesday night, resulted in a victory for the Varsity over the freshmen after Coach Hamilton has spotted the first year men 20 points. Good goal shooting by the freshmen forwards, kept the varsity on its toes, but finally a succession of goals by Matthew and Bunn gave the Varsity the edge. Bunn, Harms, and Lonberg worked at forward, Matthews at center, and Bennett and Mason at guard.
Large Number of Men Come Out for Track
More than forty men were out for track in the gym Monday and the number of candidates for the team is increasing each day according to W. O. Hamilton, manager of athletics. Paul Murphey, veteran half miler, who as one of the most consistent runners in the Valley for two years will act in the capacity of assistant coach with Coach Hamilton.
Women in the University of Texas have taken up indoor baseball as one of their recreations.
Murphy will take complete charge of the quarter milers, half men, mile and two milers. Coach Hamilton will be busy with the basket ball men and the track field men. Murphy will keep a tabulated record of the time made by the men in their events and will be able to give the men a ranking.

Boy, page the cub reporter.
Reporter, please go out and get me these facts.
Rumor has it that about one K. U. student in seven goes to church of a Sunday. Where are the six?
Why are things thus?
Is it because of the precheng? It can't all be uniformly, unmitigated badly, can it?
Is it because of the music? Surely there are towns in Kansas that have worse music.
Is it because the people in the pews are not cordial? That is hardly an adequate reason.
Is it because it is so nice to lie in bel late Sunday morning?
Or is it because K. U. students are
imply indifferent?
I don't know. I want to know. I'm not blaming anybody. Can somebody tell me the facts of the matter?
Cub reporter, please find out.
Yours very cordially.

Isabel Crandall for vice-president. A Sophomore who stands for a better class unity and a never dying pep.
Kathleen Davis, true blue Sophomore and a K. U. supporter, should be elected by a unanimous vote as secretary.

Chancellor and Dean Go to Chicago Today On S.A.T.C. Business
Financial Questions and Dispo sition of Barracks Probably Will Be Discussed
Chancellor Frank Strong and George C. Shaad, dean of the School of Engineering, will leave Lawrence this afternoon for Chicago to attend a meeting of the American Association of Universities with the business agent of the committee of special training of the Students Army Training Corps, in regard to the financial settlement of the government with the various units of the S. A. T. C. throughout the country.
It is expected that the government business agent will out-line a method of final settlement with the University. It would be important to imagine the barricks will be arranged.
Another thing that has been before the University authorities and that may be cleared up at the meeting is the subtitle for students who were inducted into the S. A. College by the bursaries instituted and who were compelled to board and room in private or fraternity houses for several weeks.
Dean Shad, who will accompany the Chancellor to the meeting was at the head of the educational department of Section B of the S. A. T. C. and will arrange with the agent for a settlement for that section.
Chancellor Strong expected to attend a meeting of the State Educational Council at Topka today and tomorrow, with Dean Kelly of the School of Education, but the summons to the Chicago S. A. T. C. assembly caused a change in his plans and he will be unable to go to Topka.
Basket Ball Popular With University Women
Coach Hazel Pratt Announces the Election of Squads This Week
"An unusual amount of interest is being taken by the women of the University in basketball this year," said Coach Hazel Pratt, director of sports in the physical education department. "There were 150 women out for practice this week and last week, which is certainly a splendid showing."
"Dr. Alice Goetz is testing the hearts of all women taking basketball and only two have been disqualified because of weak hearts. These were hearts left weak from influenza and will probably be only temporary disqualifications.
"Tuesday night thirty-five women in the junior and sophomore classes were out for practice between the hours of 6 and 7:15 o'clock. This is a splendid record, considering that this is the meal hour. The sophomores, who are showing up well from last year are Helen Olen, Media Smith, Helen Bonenett, Margaret Wasson, Claudia McCarthy, much good, new material in the sophomore class and there will be quite a change in the line-up this year.
"The juniors also have a great deal of new material—especially for guards and without a doubt there will be a change in their line-up from last year. The women who were on the team last year and showed good work. Thus day at practice, they Nosh, Earl Anne Centers; Earl Anne Lainia, Iris Russell; Ruth Trent, Martha Wulf, forwards; and Ruth Bottomly, guard."
Miss Pratt announces that the basketball squads will hold elections for their captains this week. The freshmen will elect at 3:20 o'clock Friday; sophomores at 4:15 o'clock Friday; juniors at 4:15 o'clock Thursday and seniors at 3:20 o'clock Thursday.
The attention of all students of the University is called to the following Senace Rule;
...

A large attendance was reported at the Y. M. C. A mixer last night. The men who attended saw four good boxing bouts by Harris and Kendall, Stacey and Collins, Calkins and Baird, and Shurtleff and Widener. The respective winners were Kendall, Collins, Bairst, and Widmer. Bill Hoffman refereed the bouts. Much enthusiasm was shown in cheering and singing.

Martin Receives Collection Of War Relics from Son
H. T. Martin, assistant curator of the museum, has just received a collection of war reliefs from his son Corp. Jerry Martin, 130 Field Artillery.
This collection contains German helmets, officers buttons, an spike from a German officer's helmet, belt buckles from different organisations with the typical "Gott Mit Uma" on them, and several pieces of shrapnel. The helmets are put in metal but have dentis made by flying shrapnel. These relics are on display at the entrance to the museum.

Dramatic Club Elects Two
Fifty-one Cents is Amount Asked from Each Student
Each Organization Will Be Solicited Before Saturday By Student Committee
At that time if the instructor did not come before five minutes past the hour students were allowed to "cut" the class. One day the students looked into the room, compared watches, and lingered in the hall until the time was up. Then they all romped down stairs except Roosevelt who happened to find some trigonometric formulas, 'rot' interested, and followed the board around the room with wonderful concentration he so often showed. He had almost reached the door again when he all but bumped
From the very first day in class until the day he left school he was a persistent questioner. He disgusted his instructors immediately because he gave them no time to talk. Classmates recall the time when in geology, Roosevelt asked one question after another to force to say, "As I was saying, gentlemen, when Mr. Roosevelt asked his fourth question—"
Fifty-one cents is expected of each student in the Armenian, Syrian, and Near East Fund campaign which will end Saturday.
Theodore Roessel's college career was full of exiting experiences not unlike the college career of many men of today with the possible exception of the fact that he was studious to a degree not attained by many of the great Grecian heights, according to an article in October 12, 1912.
Martha Banker, student chairman of the campaign, said this morning, "I am preparing a list of the sororities and fraternities, and intend to have each called. Each student will be expected to give fifty-one cents, or enough to feed one person three days."
In the fall of 1876 Roosevelt left a young man of 17 with side-wishers and red-hued cheeks caused by a bright red necktie, journeyed from his home in New York to Harvard, then a small school with no great stadium spaces as it contains today. But it was considered a great school even then.
Funds are to be turned in directly to I. J. Meade, Treasurer of the Douglas County committee.
Y.W.C.A. Women Conduct Bible Classes at Haskell
Roosevelt even then was indifferent to criticism as is shown when at one of his first public speeches he was introduced as Roose-eva velt intend to do. He told the inscriber who introduced him how to pronounce his name.
A message of appreciation has been sent by H. B. Pearls, superintendent of Haskell Institute, to Miss Katherine Duffield, secretary of the University Y. W., C. A., for the work done by University women in teaching Bible classes at Haskell this year.
Twelve classes have been conducted this year, as compared with five last year. The classes meet Sunday afternoons, and are made up of Indian girls in the upper grades and junior high school. The teachers are Adele Murphy, Neva Ritter, Lily Strand, Nell Hohn, Florence Blunda, Reida Sheppard, Wanda Ross, Dorothy Dawson, Lillian Cottrell, Mary Anderson, Ruth Guild, and Dorothy Sandberg.
"So much has been published about the regular work of the University having been badly disorganized this year on account of war emergencies," said Mr. Pennis, "that at least K. U. organization has doubled its efforts and is reaching out in helpful work to a larger degree than ever been ready to co-operate in the religious training of the Indian girls at Haskell, but this year have furnished a larger number of teachers of Bible classes than usual."
Supt. H. B. Peairis Sends Message of Appreciation to Miss Duffield
Roosevelt Energetic at College From Very First was Persistent Questioner Was Member of Dozen Different Organizations
He was a politician from the first and in 1880 he wrote an essay on "The Machine in Politics" and after reading it to one of the college clubs he originated a motion to have a "straw vote" in the college to show the choice of the college for President of the United States.
into the engrossed instructor writing, behind the door. **Door rovan** ran to the outside steps and shouted: "Come back fellows, he's behind the door."
Roosevelt was a member of the editorial board of the Advocate但 he wrote but few editorials on account of his numerous other activities.
He was entirely too light for football and never was able to make the college team, but his classmates remember that he was out with the rest of the fellows almost every evening and that he was so gritty that he gained the respect of every man on the Harvard gridiron.
John Woodbury was one of his classmates and he said: "Never have I seen a man with such a varity of interest as Roosevelt." He would meet fellows and stop them to argue over anything that happened to be uppermost in his mind. He joined the Riffe Club, the Art Club, and in his sophomore year organized a Finance Club. During his freshman year he was ejected from a theater in Boston for creating a disturbance. He was trying to make a secret society and had been ordered to go to the United States, where unwieldy clubs and aplaud violently in all the quiet scenes. He was a member of a dozen different organizations chief among them was The Hasty Pudding Club, The Porcelain, Alpha Delta Phi, and Phi Beta Kappa.
He selected practical courses from the few elective courses that Harvard ossessed and pursued them with a seal seldom equalled.
Y. W. Finance Committee Meets
A prayer meeting of the Y. W. C.
A. Finance Committee was held Wednesday morning in Myers Hall. Ruth Guild was chairman. The captains and their teams were given the names and pledge cards of the women they are to see during the next few days. The campaign for funds will last until January 20.
Dean Kelly speaks in Topека Dean F. J. Falken left for Topeka this afternoon to attend a meeting of the council of administration of the schools of Kansas. He will talk to the superintendents of city schools on "A Scheme of Americanization," and to the representatives of different colleges on "Lessons for American Colleges Taught by the S. A. T. C." Chancellor Frank Strong was expected to give a talk at the meeting, but was called to Chicago on S. A. T. C. business.
Plain Tales From the Hill
"Now nain' is just disgusting the way this younger generation of girls dress?" said three colored women on the campus this morning, as one of the university women passed, dolled out in furs, and no hat or coat.
"That's just like 'em," they continued, "wearing furs on their backs and nothing any place else."
The wiles of the politicians are many. One of the girls at the Alemannia house was called up last night by a certain man in the university. The girl did not remember that he was the leading politician on one of the class tickets. After talking for about twenty minutes, the girl had hopes that he was going to ask her for a date for the Law Serim or at least to the Varsity. But at the conclusion of his talk, he merely said, "Now remember to come to the polls tomorrow and support my ticket."
It has been reported from very good authority that more than half of the members of the University Club are planning on spending the week-end in Kansas City. The informer was in doubt as to the cause of the trip, but it is either because of the outlook for prohibition or else they like the delightfully wicked sound of the name of the play "Hitchy-Koo."
"When are we going to make our sorority calls? asked the Greek frosh.
"When election's over, so you followes can do a sort of mail order business on the women at the polls and win," answered the senior.
Miss Lynn's class of juniors in Narration and Description wrote descriptions of "night sounds" as their assignment the other day. Here is the way one junior described the snores that kept her awake.
"I could not sleep all night because from my sister on the other side of the bed would come every once in a while, a steaming sound like hot gurgling mush."
One of the Pi Phi upperclassmen went into a college restaurant last night and asked to see the sorority bill. 'I don't want all of it,' she said, just that for the nuts.'
Dr. R. C. Hughes to Speak
Dr. R. C. Hughes of Chicago, associate secretary of the General Board of Presbyterian Church in America will speak at 4:30 o'clock Monday afternoon, January 20. His Wife "The Relief of the New Era" Doctor Hughes was in Lawrence a year ago when the late I. Wilbur Chapman addressed the students.

Class Elections Held Today Wake Interest Of Student Population
ballots to Be Counted After o'Clock—Results Announced Tomorrow
Much interest was shown in the annual student elections today and early indications were that the final count n the senior, sophomore, and freshman contests would be close. Keen competition appeared in these classes out the juniors have only one ticket n the field.
Notwithstanding the rivalry in the remaining three classes and the old-time electionering on the Hill, the campaign has been unusually clean and free from mud-slinging. Except for the posters which adorned the sidewalks and trees all over the Hill this morning, there was little evidence of a hot political scrap. Supporters of each ticket were working hard around the polls, however, inviting students to come in and vote for their candidates and passing out political cards.
Members of the Student Council were posted at each of the polls to supervise the election. There is no noon count in the Kansan today because the Student Council members thought it inadvisable. In former years incurate counting and graft has been strongly hinted at and this year there can be no such accusations, and the count will not be taken until the polls are closed at 4 a'clock this afternoon. Council members have expressed a desire that they be not bothered with queries about election returns this evening, as the final count will be published tomorrow;
Supreme Court Decides Malice Is Test of Libel
Untrue Charges Will Not Convict Unless Personal Note Is Present In Attack
Criticism of the official conduct of a public officer by a newspaper will not render the newspaper subject to libel proceedings, according to a recent decision of the Kansas Supreme Court. Even if the charges are not true, so long as no malice appears in the article printed the newspaper may not be held. The case in question was one in which D. J. Carver, county attorney of Miami County, sued W. D. Greason, editor and publisher of the Miami Republican. Mr. Greason had criticised the county attorney's action on some paroles, by saying: "Less politics, less juggling, less collusion between the county attorney and certain lawyers in Paola is necessary."
Both the lower court and the supreme court held that if the newspaper did not show any personal malice toward the official or attack hibl. private character, the newspaper could not be held for damages. Heretofore in cases of this kind the fact that no personal malice was shown might secure a verdict of only a nominal amount of damages, but libel was usually proven, at times in very unimportant cases, while the new rule will allow much good criticism, formerly dangerous.
Student Councils to Fix Student Point System
A meeting of the two governing bodies, the Men's Student Council and the council of the Women's Student Government Association will be held next week to appoint three members from each body to act as a committee in conferring with the eligibility in regard to the point水塘.
It is the intention of Prof. H. C. Thurman, who is chairman of the eligibility committee to meet as soon as possible so that the students may understand their work in the committee.
The present credit system has had different standards for men and women and has not been enforced successfully. But the establishment of the uniform point system there will be no trouble in finding the standing of any student, Professor Thuranu believes.
Prof. A. J. Boynton, head of the department of economics and commerce, gave an address Wednesday evening at Salina at the annual meeting of the Chamber of Commerce. His subject was "Business and Reconstruction."

EDUCATIONAL APPROPRIATION
ON BUSINESS BASES
At the present session of the legislature, the state institutions will be represented in the matter of appropriations by J. A. Kimball, manager of the Board of Administration. This is the first time that the business of all the state schools has been combined. In former sessions each institution presented its budget separately, and each appropriation was made separately.
Under the new plan, a just and fair distribution of educational funds will be made, since Mr. Kimball's business is to know the needs and conditions of the various schools of the state. He regards the several state institutions as one large educational unit, and not as distinct organizations with a spirit of rivalry against each other.
A great amount of time formerly spent in discussion of the educational appropriations will be saved under the new plan, and an expert will recommend the distribution of appropriations. This is another step forward in the educational status of Kansas.
The student with a Real Imagination says the best seller on the Hill would be a book of short stories telling how the Chancellor and other campus heroes proposed to their wives.
Since it is forty-three degrees in the shade right in the middle of January, the student with a Real Imagination says he is going north about the first of May.
THANK YOUR STARS
It is election night. And it has been a real election. Student spirit has been as strong as ever, but the usual political scandals have not been in evidence. The University has not only come to life, after four months of chaotic activity, when everything seemed to go wrong, but it has come into a sanner, more vigorous life.
Not everything is going right. We are served with alleged aquariums in lieu of H<sub>2</sub>O. The Senate has cut spring vacation to three days. There is the inevitable professor who solemnly believes that his students live for one thing only—to learn the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth about his own subject. And of course, we have to divide our checks among the landlades, the taximen, and a few hundred others.
But the thing that really counts the most is all right. The spirit of the University has returned. The S. A. T. C. did not ruit it. The war is over, and we are back on a normal schedule that is running more smoothly than it did in the good old days. Kansas spirit has its old force, but it is the better because of a widened perspective.
KANSAN A NON-PARTISAN PAPER
Because political tickets appear in the advertising columns of the Daily Kansan, some students will contend that the paper is taking sides in the election.
The advertising columns of the Daily Kansan are open to anyone in the University who is willing to pay the rates, provided the context of the advertisement is legitimate and clean.
In student politics the Daily Kansan is non-partisan. It stands for clean politics. The editorial policy is not controlled by the advertising columns, and the presence of a political bicker in its columns is no indication that it supports that ticket.
Some people worry a lot about what courses to take. One man always goes through the book-cases to see what books the upperclassman have discarded before he decides just what subjects he thinks he needs.
TENTATIVE STUDENT ACTIVITIES
Who said there were too many organizations on the campus? No matter how many some people belong to, they are always tickled to death to get an invitation to become a member of another one.
There are many interests now that have no organizations to back them. Let some interested party who feels he need of some particular organization start one. There is always someone to "belong."
Here are a few suggestions for clubs that occur to us:
A  Snow-shovelers  Union: for freshmen only.
A Shining Light Society; for all red-headed students.
A Society for Protection of Cats; to keep medics from abusing members of the feline family.
A. B. B. Club; for blighted buds
A Sorority Devoted to Hair-dressing Styles: for young women who are interested in the latest thing in bangs, spitcurls, etc.
A Manners Club: with the purpose of teaching students to eat notiselessly and calmly without losing out on the food.
A Physical Exercise Organization: for girls who live down the Hill and do not get enough exercise.
There are many more that could be mentioned, but you can think them up for yourself.
BARRACKS AND BANQUETS
BARCAKS AND BANQUETS
Why not use the barracks for banquet halls? Surely we are aware of the fact that the University has no place suitable for banquets. Why let an opportunity go by noticed?
In each of the barracks there is a large, accommodating mess hall. Plain to be sure, but all the essentials for a banquet hall are there. The tables are stationary and the chairs are built at the tables.
But the greatest advantage is that the floors are not slick and thus all danger of the waister slipping and giving you a shower bath of hot coffee would be eliminated at K. U. dinner parties. Why not consider it?
The men of our home-coming sea forces were rolling on parade down one of the most famous streets in the world. They did not step like West Pointers; but their lines were apt to curve a little at the end and to bulge in the center, so that watching then, was somewhat like seeing the waves driving past some ocean headland before a northeast wind of autumn. On and on they came with a band of at least battleship strength heading those endless ranks of marines, signators, gun crews, deckmen, stokers, hospital attendants, engineers, mascots, and all the rest who make up the legions of Josephus Daniels's far-flung empire. They got the roaring welcome they deserved, and the schoolteacher guest in our friend's office window persisted in looking only down the avenue after those who had passed. "It's such a pleasure," she said. "se ten thousand pairs" of heels of their shoes all nicer than could any man in marine hope to stand against an organization capable of carrying such marvels as that? Our winner was every time *Collier's*

A DIFFERENT SPIRIT IN COLLEGE
It is already apparent that there will be a changed spirit in the colleges after the war, a point which is touched upon by professor Robert N. Corwin, chairman of the committee on revision of courses at Yale, in a recent discussion of the reforms which are reasonably to be expectae as the result of the war. He finds first of all that because the world is poorer, it will be necessary for all men to work harder, and that in this college men will not be able to escape their share. This brings us to the probability of longer terms and shorter vacations, with an implication in favor of the all-year school. But it means more than that; it also includes the question of student demonstration of courses" and better understanding of the work of the faculty and students. Elimination of lost motion gains time, as any mechanic knows.
A significant instance in bringing about the change which is to make the college a place for serious work will be exercised by the students themselves. It is plain that young men who have been aged by a year and a half of war will not return to their classes in the same state of mind in which they left them. They will be many years older, measured by that which they have seen and done, than they were when they went away. The point that the years of youth are precious will have been impressed upon them. They will constitute the future. They will be primarily for work only incidentally for play. It is impossible to escape the conclusion that other young men will follow their example. It will no longer be unfashionable to be a "g r i n d." The lightheaded, the casual, and the student who selects his studies with the sole purpose of obtaining credits easily either will reform his plan or be left behind in the race.
It seems quite probable, too, that the faculties will need to look to their laurels henceforth. We do not envy some of them their task of teaching experienced veterans where heretofore their classes have consisted only of boys. We do not allude to the relatively unimportant requirement that they shall be careful of their "facts", but to the need of interpretations which will appease the requirements of students who have had new practice in thinking for themselves. The teacher who formerly "got by" because of the necessity of life to the need of practice to inspire them in some positive way, or his usefulness will be done. It is safe to predict a tremendous rattling of the dry honer
The colleges will not be committed, regardless of circumstances, to the four-year course. The problem is individual; it is partly financial, and must be adapted to circumstances. But something like it is certain to come. It is improbable that the serious young man of the future will be content to potter for four years over work that he could do in three. The world is calling for him, and he is chafing over every delay. The spirit of the student is changing, and the college must be prepared to vibrate in harmony with the new note—Yale Review.

The old sea captain was smoking comfortably by his fireplace when Jack, eager to retrieve the sword,
"Too rough!" exclaimed Mr. Tar with visions of his own days at sea. "Why, sir, I was once sailing around the Cape when a storm came on, and it blew down the main-mast and the ship." The Captain didn't even think of running in."
"Well, you see," exclaimed the son,
"this storm was so bad that it blew
the anchors on the captain's buttons,
to the paint off the ship's bows,
suck."
"Stop!" cried the old man. "You do me credit, Jack--you do me credit."

K.U. Exceeds Its Quota For War Loan Drives In Two Years' Work
Total of $113,000 Given to War Funds by University of
Kansas
A total of $113,800 has been subscribed by the University to the various war work funds and government loans since September, 1916. If the exact total were known, it would exceed the above amount since a part of the University's quota has been accredited to Douglass County.
In these campaigns where a separate account for the University has been kept, it has always exceeded its quota. During the summer session of 1917 $1,000 was raised. The Y. M. C. A.'s quota of $11,000 was met during October, 1917. The Red Cross Christmas roll call for 1917 and 1918 and also the Red Cross spring drive secured liberal donations. The United War work campaign secured $12,000 from the students and faculty.
To the Second Liberty Loan over $50,000 worth of bonds was subscribed The quota for the Third Liberty Loan was $15,000 but the amount subscribed nearly doubled this, the total being $28,800. For the Fourth Liberty Loan, the quota was placed at $25,000 but here, K. U. went beyond expectations and subscribed to $66,000 worth of bonds.
Besides all this, there have been generous donations to all relief funds.

Mass Meeting of Men To Discuss Honor System
Read the Daily Kansan.
A mass meeting of University men probably will be hold next week to determine the opinion of men students on the honor system, according to Herschel Washington, president of the Men's Student Council. The men will be taken as was done in the woman's mass meeting a short time ago.
Opinion on the Hill has favored the adoption of the honor system. The women voted to endorse it, and some representative men students have given their opinions as favorable to the plan. The Man's Student Council and Women's Student Government Association are co-operating in learning student wishes in this matter and probably both will push its adoption if students vote for it.

Is Kansas a Christian Common wealth?
If a professor of the history of religions offered a course in Mohammedanism in the university, would anybody object? That would be a purely educational matter. Nobody would suspect that the teacher was trying to make Mohammedans out of his students.
Or is it Mohammedan?
If a professor of the history of religions offered a course in Christianity in the university, ought anybody to object? Wouldn't that be a purely educational matter? Or would somebody suspect that the teacher was trying to make Christians out of his students? Suppose he succeeded in such an undertaking. Would his students be damaged any in their morals, as citizens, if they became Christians?
But suppose the professor taught that Christianity was thus and thus, the religion of such and such ideas, practices, emotions. Some good brother might rise up and deyed said professor in some ministers' meeting in Wichita or Salina or Hutchinson. And some, liberal minded layman might touch the finger of scorn at the professor's mediaevalisms.
What is Christianity anyway?
Is it a form of church government?
Is it a method of baptism? Is it a consensus of opinion? Is it a traditional set of ideas? Or is it something bigger than all this?
What do you think?
If we had real Christianity, do you think we would have seitanism?

Kansas Sees Bright Outlook on Gridiron For Season of 1919
Practically All of 1918 Players and New Stars Expected On Campus
Pringle Out for Captain
Strong Competition Expected for Various Positions—Substitutes Plentiful
With practically the entire 1910 football team planning to return to school next fall, and several stars who are now in the service almost sure to come back, prospects for a Missouri Valley football championship in 1910 are brighter than they have been for several years. Captain-elect Scrubby Laslett of this year's team, who is in France in the tank corps will probably be back. George Nettels, All-Valley tackle last year is scheduled to return next fall, as is Warren Woedy, who was a star at right guard for two years prior to his enlistment in naval aviation. These three men were on the All-Valley teams last year. Pete Jones, star tackle and honor Valley man, is not in K. U. this quarter but will enroll here next fall and come out for his old position in the line. Jones is one of the best linemen in the Valley and good on both offensive and defensive play. Basil Church will make a good mate for Jones as the big fellow recently returned from Iowa City where he was a licutenant in the S. A. T. C. Church was one of the best men on the Bond队 in 1917 and measured more than 185 pounds. He made good on the fresh squad here and the fresh squad at Baker. Both Jones and Churches are Juniors this year.
TWO STRONG GUARDS IN SIGHT
"Red" Desmond and Marxen, sophomores, are a pair of guards that are hard to equal. Frank Marxen played at tackle this season but will probably be shifted to guard to make room for Church next fall. MacLeod is a sophomore and will be back for center. James Mott may go to Rosedale, but he can come down to Lawrence for the games. He is the better of the two K. U. centers. Mott is an old Baker star and all-state man.
Arthur "Dutch" Lonberg and Banta are juniors and will be back for the end positions. Lonberg is the class of the Valley at end. If Scrubby Laslett returns for next fall K. U. will have the best ends in the Valley. With Church, Desmond, Marxen, Mott, Jones, Laslett and Lonberg in the line Kansas will have a powerful defense and a line that will make the Valley backs get away fast to make a gain.
Loren Simons and Walters of Lawrence will be back for halves. Both are fair players but did not get into all of the games this year. John Bunn and Mirl Ruble were the two most consistent backs this season. All except Ruble are juniors. Ruble is in the Medical School at Rosedale.
PRINGLE OUT FOR CAPTAIN
Tom Fringle, one of the most foured halves in the Valley the two years he played here will be back to complete his law course next fall. Tom is the person of the halves in the Valley he will be out for the first practice next fall. Tom will be a candidate for the captaincy of the team for next year as he is a veteran and a leader.
"Stem" Foster is eligible for another year at quarter by reason of the decision of the Valley coaches to call this a "blank year" in athletics. Stem is the best quarter in the Valley, and won the Argie game for his this season. The other teams on Ovaldeo will sophomore and will be baskets for full back. Heitner got well this fall, although it was him first in K. U. Varsity athletics.
Foster, Pringle, Rubie, Heizer are four excellent backs and Manager Hamilton will still have Simons, Bunn and Walther for reliefs.
With the return of these men Kansas will have a real team with enough real substitutes to stick out and win any game. Next year will probably be the banner year for Kansas in football circles. The games. The games. played next year, the county made up games this season. Big home games will be the Aggies, Oklahoma and Missouri. Ames and Nebraska will be played at their gridirons.
Kansas men will be out for foot ball early this spring and Coach Bond will teach the men the Valley style of play and any new plays he may devise this winter for the men.

Sport Beams
Forrest De Bernardi, center on the fast Schmelzer basketball team in Kansas City and former Northeast high school star, has been elected captain of his team for this year. The Schmelzers have an all-star aggregation, having recently piloted up more than 90 points against Lee's Summit, Milton Singer, a freshman at the University of Missouri last quarter scored twenty-four goals from the field.
The Missouri Tigers got a good start in the Missouri Valley basketball race when they won two games from the Ames Aggies at Columbia. Captain Ruby of the Tigers was the individual star of the series, ably assisted by Vogt, the lanky Missouri center and a letter man two years ago. Levsen, who played short-stop, on the Ames basball team last year, is now playing center for the Aggie pintet.
The Kansas Aggies also showed class in defeating the Washburn college five at Manhattan by a 36-20 score. The Aggies have three letter men on their team, including Hinds, the scrappy forward, and John Clarke, All Valley guard last year, and should cut some figure in the Valley race. Lindell, Former Topeka High School star forward, is mainstay of the Washburn team.
The University of Missouri basketball team outplayed and easily defeated the Ames five at Columbia last week in the first series of games in the Valley. The Kansas Aggies started with a victory over Washburn. From advance depo the Aggies and Tigers will have the best opposition in the Valley. The Aggies and Tigers 'urnished Kansas top-notch exeitenent last season.
Team Leaves Tonight For Basket Ball Games With the Iowa Aggies
Coach Hamilton Will Take Seven Men on First Trip of Season
The University basketball team will leave tonight at 8:40 a'clock for Ames, Iowa, to play a two-game series with the Iowa Aggies there. Coach Hamilton and seven men are making the trip.
John Bunn is going at top speed at left forward and is working well with Harmas at the other position. Harmas's height and passing is working well with Bunn's speed and good shooting ability. Matthews at center is in good shape and his throwing off gives the Kansas forwards a good opportunity for team work.
Roy Bennett is playing at floor guard in good fashion, and his speed and basket totsing fits in well with the work of the team. Mason at the other guard position has proved his ability, and his size and speed enables him to break up his opponent's plays with regularity. Lonborg is an excellent man at either forward or guard, and works well in either position. Marxen who also plays guard, is improving rapidly and makes a formidable back-guard because of, his size.
The games with Ames will give Coach Hamilton a line on his men, and also what the chances of Kansas are with Missouri. Ames gave Missouri a good run in their series of last week, and a double victory by Kansas means a good chance at the Valley title. However, Washington University, the Kansas Aggies, and Nebraska are unknown quantities, and a
comparative rating of the teams at this early date is impossible. The Kansas, Aggies may be counted on for a strong team, and Washington's surprise in football last fall may be duplicated in basketball.
Women Have Made Good In Men's Jobs on Hill
Have the women in the University of Kansas been successful in holding men's jobs? Yes, very much so, according to the opinion of the people under whom they are employed.
Women have made good as laboratory assistants and dispensers in the department of Chemistry. They will be retained the remainder of the quarter and next quarter if the men wish to have their jobs back they will have to compete with the women. It will be a question of the best person for the job; not the preference of women, the chemistry professors say.
Says
Are More Resilient to the Eye in Offices, Registrar
In the clerical positions in the University the women have been entirely successful The registrar's office presumes women to men. They are more restful to the eye, the Registrar says. The business office has filled its vacancies with men, not in preference to women, however.
Pauline Fuls announces her withdrawal from the Popularity Contest.
In the university restaurants where women have been employed during the absence of the men they have been competent and would be employed in preference to the men if the hours were not so long and the work so heavy.

Must Give All People Opportunity to Become Americanized Says Kelly
Dean Presents Program to School Administrators Today
Community Must Join Force
Schools and Business Can Play Important Part in Program
"To give all of our people, old and young, foreign speaking and English speaking, an appreciation of the distinctly American character of our American life is the Job of Americanization laid out for us by the war," said F. J. Kelly, dean of the School of Education of the University of Kano in a meeting of the College Administration in Topeka this afternoon.
"The problem of Americanization is two fold. It includes, first, the Americanization of those who recognize themselves as foreigners; secondly, the Americanization of those who are in the first group comprising about 3 per cent of the population and the second group the rest.
"The task of Americanizing the foreigner, while differing from the task of Americanizing our native sons, nevertheless merges with it. Whatever we may hold with reference to teaching the foreigner English, it is only that he may have the tool wherewith to attain for himself the spirit of Americanization. To have taught not in itself an end. Having taught the foreigner English, the task of Americanization is just begun. From this point forward, however, the task merges into that of Americanizing our native born.
LANGUAGE IMPORTANT FACTOR
"Of course, the first essential in the work for foreigners is to give them the medium of communication with Americans. In the great majority of cases that will mean to teach them English, but I feel like throwing in a word of caution at this place, because I do not believe in the first place that to speak English is essential for thorough-going Americanism, and in the second place there are mistaken tendencies in the direction of insisting upon the use of English where some foreign language serves better.
"For example, there are communities in Kansas where sermons in the churches are preached in a foreign language and where there has been a tendency to question the wisdom of allowing a continuation of foreign language sermon. There has been no question as to loyalty of the persons using the foreign language, but rather it has been thought offensive in our present national struggle that people should speak the language of our enemy in this country. In my opinion, nothing would be more likely to create anti-American feeling than to remove from these loyal and prosperous groups the medium of easy social communication. In addition to learning English, these people should be studying such features of the American government and other institutions as are most essential to their responding properly both at the polls and in their own social groups.
AGENCIES ARE AT HAND
"The agencies shall be enlisted in this work—we have to consider more in detail what is contemplated in the scheme for Americanization. There seems little doubt but that the public schools should be a leading agency in most of the phases of the work. Certainly they should teach English and the regular academic courses. It is quite certain however that the full responsibility should rest on public schools. Other agencies should be definitely interested and that are equipped to do the work perhaps more effectively than the public schools.
"The churches in the community should undoubtedly provide entertainment which would bring these people together and also bring them into interaction with the more thoroughly organized citizens of the community.
GENERAL PRINCIPLES LISTED
"In the third place, these people should have an opportunity as rapidly as time will permit to supplement their general education. This, of course, is not only true of the foreigners but also of any other of our people as soon as they learn the inadequacy of their
(Continued on page 3)
Frivolous Phrases Crowd Out Old Stuff
"What effect has the war had on the English Language," asks a highbrow on the Hill.
Well, let's see. It has eliminated a good many popular expressions that were in use before the war. For in stance there is this one: "If we should be attacked by a foreign foe we could raise an army overnight. A million men would spring to arms and be able to lick the world."
UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS, FRIDAY AFTERNOON, JANUARY 17, 1919.
One heard this remark in very general use at one time, especially in Congress and cabinet places, and at other celebrations. Now marked "obsolete."
Then this one was always good: "Why do we need a large navy? N* nation would dare come so far to attack us." And "Why build another battleship? We can't shuck corn, with them things," is the remembered saying of the late Jerry Simpson of Kansas. These are now laid away in the morge of "Old English Literature."
Well, the highbrow asks, what has come in to take the place of all of us?
The world was evidently tired of such serious phrases, for the new ones are all light and frivolous, and bear the stamp of optimism. Such ones as "It's a great life if you don't weaken," and "I'll say she does," are war-time expressions. Others just as good, are "Great day in the morning," and "Excuse me while I laugh," while "He's a mistake," and "He's sure S. O. L. (sure out of luck)" are just as popular.
There are others just as good too, dear highbrow, and possibly this does not answer your question, but it is worth noticing in passing.
General Wood Will Come Within Next Ten Days
Convocation Will Be Held for Commandant of Camp Fenston
"Maj.-Gen. Leonard Wood will probably come to Lawrence in a week or ten days to speak at a convocation," said H. G. Ingham, secretary of the correspondence study department today.
Mr. Ingham has received word that General Wood was in Kansas City yesterday on his way back to Camp Funston from Oyster Bay, where he attended the funeral of Theodore Roosevelt.
General Wood has been transferred to the position of commandant of the Central Department with headquarters in Chicago, but will remain in Funston until the Tenth Division has been demobilized.
Journalism Department Issues "Kansas Editor"
A special issue of the Kansas Editor, containing the program of the Kansas Editorial Association meeting in Topoka next week, is being sent out by the Journalism department today. The magazine contains, besides official announcements, articles by all the members of the Journalism faculty, a sketch of the early Kansas population, an article of the Daily Kansan, and notes of the recent changes in the newspaper offices of the state.
The Kansas Editor is not a regular monthly but is an occasional publication put out by the journalism department was discontinued during the war.
A special conference of the superintendents and representatives of all the college Y. M. C. A. organizations in the state was held in Topela Wednesday and Thursday. Prof. E. F.

This special conference was called at this time to get the representatives together and discuss the new problems resulting from the sudden turn from war to peace. The central purpose, as explained by Professor Egle, is to help young men in Bible study, organization, young men in Bible study."
The problem of rehabilitating Y. M. work in the various colleges of the state was thoroughly discussed at this session, and waiting for the regular fall session.

Dr. R. C. Hughes, of the Board of Education of the Presbyterian Church, who will speak in Fraser Monday afternoon will be at Westminster Hall, from 1:30 to 4 o'clock Monday where he will be glad to meet any students wishing to see him.
Dr. Hughes has direct charge of the field work of the Presbyterian Church in America in the colleges. This is the first time that he has spoken at the University of Kansas, but he was in Lawrence about a year ago when she was visiting him. She was here and addressed a meeting of students in Robinson Gymnasium.
Dr. Hughes has a son in the forces in France, and is naturally interested in the religious life of the young men of America. His subject at the Monday afternoon • meeting in Fraser was “The Religion of the New Era.”
Shakedown to Be First Party at Westminster
The "Shakedown" which will be given by the Westminster Student Guild at Westminster Hall at 8:00 o'clock, Friday night, is expected to prove rather an original scheme. There will be a special program of music and games and refreshments will be served. All those who wish to attend must fill out what they will find out by attending it. Each woman is asked to bring an apron.
Ruth Cavanaugh, c'22, Olga Gogelman, c'22, and Sinai Charles, e-sp will spend Saturday in Kansas City.
The Tea-Dance advertised to be given in F. A. U. Hall Saturday afternoon is not an authorized dance and University students are not allowed to attend. According to a Senate ruling, during a regular session of the University, no student or group of students may attend. In Lawrence, which is thrown open to the public indiscriminately at a fixed price.
This is the first social evening given at Westminster Hall by the Guild this year as it was almost impossible to have anything before, because last quarter was so broken into. An essex pardon for tonight and all Prebysterian young people and their friends are invited to participate.

Kipling Wrote Not Of Kansan Machines
"I do not agree with Kipling," declared one of the students of the department of journalism, after reading a letter from the editor of the founder of his American typewriter.
He said: "its a dandy. My greatest joy is to rise early and oil it. I can do poems on this machine without the trouble of thought. I just start something at the first line, pull open the throttle valve and go for a walk. When I come back I find a poem of an desired length compendious for the throttle flushers and happy waiting modestly for my aplause."
But this is the way the typewriters in the journalism department act:
"the ours i apint on theoecee dhore a as string of pearless to meee."
Historian Is Compiling Honor Roll for K.U.
Professor Sterling Asks That Material Be Sent to Alumni Office in Fraser Hall
An honor roll of all men of the University who have died in the service of the country, whether on the field of battle or in the training camps, is now being prepared under the direction of Prof. M. W. Sterling.
For the purpose of this memorial the University requests a photograph of each man on the honor roll, accompanied by fitting obituary material, giving data and place of birth, residence, schooling, professional or business career, service in the army, date, place and circumstances of death.
The list given below is tentative and is published largely for the purpose of getting corrections and additions. Professor Sterling requests that information of this sort be turned in at the alumni office in the south-east room on the main floor of Fraser Hall.
The list now includes the following men who died in battle or in training camps other than the S. A. T. C.:

Hangen Wins Senior Presidency In Closest Race of K. U. Politics
Plain Tales From the Hill
One of the women politicians, as she sat on the steps of the building where her class polls were located, was heard to soliloquize thus:
"You can drag a man to a dance, and can vamp him after you get him there; you can bulldoze him in to going to all sorts of stiff receptions and important things; but you can't do a thing with a man at electron time."
Speaking of Indians running the ganttlet, they have nothing on the poor student who is trying to get by politicians. Why even professors are not immune, for Prof. W. A. Dill was being asked to vote the Senior Ticket.
IN MEMORIAM
"in memory of Torch and Beta Theta Pi."
High on the middle pillar of Green Hall, this morning was a funeral wreath on which appeared the following inscription:
If ever any one has the slightest idea that you are popular and nominates you for the popularity contest, your name is there to stay. So says Bob Lynn, manager of the contest, in reply to an attempt of a certain contestant to withdraw her name from the ballot.
"If once they are nominated, the names will appear on the ballot," said Lymn, "they can either get out and win or else go down to ignoble defeat."
THOSE WILY WOMEN
Election feuds and hatreds are things of the past in the senior class. The two rivaling candidates for presidency sat out on the steps of Green Hall, eating peanuts out of the same sack, all during voting hours yesterday afternoon.
As the result of some eaves-dropping upperclassman, one little freshmen woman spent an hour waiting in a deserted room in Fraser Hall, recently, waiting to appear before the disciplinary committee.
It was her first offense, and it really wasn't her fault. The men, upon whom she had a dreadful crush, had eneighed her into breaking the date rule. Here is where the uppercasemen enter. They were listening on the phone upstairs and heard the whole arrangement.
The next day, they called the freshman up and told her they were representatives of the disciplinary committee before the conference began.
She appeared but the committee failed to appear. After she had sat for almost an hour in Fraser, the upperclassmen came after her and took her home.
O. T. S. in Basketball Game
The Oread Training School basketball team will play Lawrence Business College tonight at 7 o'clock in Robinson Gymnasium. After the game a party will be given by last year's High School seniors for this year's students and teachers, on the first floor of the gymnasium.
"Go to Church," say Y. W. C. A.
Students of the University are asked to co-operate with the townpeople in the "Go to Church" drive. The University Y. M. C. A. is urging the students and is supporting the Lawrence drive and giving it publicity on the Hill.
Jonah's Whale Sermon Tonic
Jonah's Whale Sermon Topic
Rev. Rew Sanderson will discuss the book of Jonah at Plymouth Church Sunday evening. He will not attempt to say why "Jonah swallowed the whale," he says, but he will endearo to set forth the real meaning of the story, and the real spirit of the much-maligned prophet. He declares that the whale in the story by his mere bulk has obscured the point of a very delightful and instructive narrative.

Entire
4-Square Ticket Gets Victory By Small Majority
Kinkel Is Sophomore Head
Vote
Harley Scott is Elected Freshman President by Record
After one of the closest races in the political history of K. U., the senior Four Square Ticket defeated the Senior Representative Ticket for all offices. The juniors had only one ticket in the field, but in the sophomore and freshman elections there were close contests.
Ordinarily, the class elections are held in the fall, shortly after the University opens, but because of the influenza epidemics and the disruption of class organizations by the presence of the Students' Army Training Corps, it was several times delayed. Delay in holding the election did not prevent the creation of a considerable amount of interest.
Herman C. Hangen, candidate for president, defeated Louise Nixon, the first woman to run for senior president, by nineteen votes. Irene Fowden won over Tracey Cohn for vice-president, by nine votes, Carol Martin over Esther Moore for secretary by nine votes and Stem Foster over Margaret Young for treasurer by sixteen votes.
In the sophomore class John F. Kinkel defeated John R. Wahlstedt for president by 9 fourteen votes. Isabell Crandell, the only member of the opposition ticket to be elected, defeated Loise Burke for vice-president by fourteen votes. Alfred Gravets had the largest majority, 7 votes, over McKenna Hodges for treasurer. Dorothea Engle defeated Kathie Davis for secretary by sixteen votes. "Bob" Lynn was elected Soph Hop manager by a majority of twenty-one votes. The record breaking vote was given Harley Scott, candidate for freshman president. He defeated Harry Turner by 137 votes. Pauline Newman, the only member of the opposition to be elected, won over Katherine Smith for secretary by one vote. Isabel Nason defeated Margaret Murdock for vice-president by thirty-seven votes and Merlon Gordon received a majority of twenty-two votes for treasurer.

The Daily Kansan aims to picture the undergraduate in to go for a better career than merely printing the news by being an enthusiastic holder of the University's journal to play. To be clean; to be cheerful; to be charitable; to be compassionate; to have serious problems to wiser heads; in all, to serve the students of the University.

COLLEGES ARE NATIONAL POTENTIALITY
"The revealing stress of this war brought out the fact that there should be a more fundamental attention given to the education of young men," said Governor Henry Allen in his recent inaugural address. In the new governor, Kansas education has a strong supporter—a man who has progressive ideas and who can realize ideas.
Governor Allen has expressed himself as being violently opposed to any form of militarism. Yet he understands the national need of a system of physical education which will strengthen this country in times of peace, and will also be a defense. "I believe we should embrace every opportunity," he said, "to mingle in our educational system a course of training that shall equip all physically and mentally to be better fitted on the instant to defend the national life as well as to carry on its burdens in time of peace.
"We have had in this state at the Agricultural College, Camp Funston, and other institutions a wholesome example of the introduction in education of a helpful co-operation along lines of better training. The experiences of the past few months prove that the educational institutions of the land can be given an added potentiality in making our citizenship better fixed physically and mentally to meet whatever strain the future provides."
ELECTION DOPE
Women did not hurry by Green Hall election day, but took up their stand on the law steps in no uncertain manner. So firmly were they entrenched in this location that brave men murred by to avoid them. The high heel on the law steps is something new, and upon hearing of it, former students of the School of Law will remark that the University of Kansas is not what it once was.
There were more ward-heelers than voters on the Hill most of the time Thursday.
The proud freshman man who was naked if he were a senior, the flattered senior girl who was handed a freshman card and, the pleased prof who was taken for a student, went home for lunch and told the others all about it.
One woman candidate held a careworn medic's pipe while he walked inside to vote for her. After proximity to the pipe, every one would agree that she earned the vote.
By June, election bets will possibly all be paid off.
Alleged fraternity pledges who
INTRAMURAL BASEBALL
If baseball is abolished in the Missouri Valley for the coming season as athletic leaders predict, some other form of athletic interest must be arranged in order to give the students a chance for some good recreation in the spring air. A plan at the Kansas State Agricultural School at Manhattan worked well last year, and possibly more interest was taken than in the regularly scheduled baseball seasons of the years before.
An inter-fraternity baseball league was organized by the athletic coach. The games were played either during the week or on Saturdays. The fact that all of the fraternities entered teams brought out a crowd to witness the games. Women also attended the contests, and so many hotly contested games were played that soon the students came out as a whole, and even the faculty took interest.
Until a few years ago, Coach W. O. Hamilton has always organized an Inter-fraternity League here, and also a Hash-house League. The games were a fair success even though college baseball conflicted with the interests. This spring, if there is to be no collegiate season, the fraternities and hash-houses will have a clear field.
More men would have a chance to participate in the games, and the University of Kansas would be taking a step in the right direction—that of introducing intramural athletics, and recreation for all the students. Gymnastium may bring results, but baseball, out under the blue sky, with all the fresh air in the world, is the ideal sport in spring. Practically no expenses would be incurred. No uniforms are necessary, the men have gloves, mits, and bats, and the only expense would be baseballs, and if necessary, the teams could pay for these.
A series of games could be carried out according to schedule, with two separate leagues, the Inter-fraternity league, and the Hash-house league. The Men's Pan-hellenic could govern the first league, and the Hash-house representatives could elect a governing body. A board of directors to be at the head of all could be made up of the presidents of the two leagues, Coaches Hamilton and Bond, and a member of the Men's Student Council. After the close of the season, a championship series could be played between the winners in the two leagues, and by this time the interest in the games, would warrant charging of admission to these games to defray any excesses incurred during the season.
NEBRASKA HAS NEW DI-
RECTION
The University of Nebraska is distributing its student directories this week. The Cornhuskers did not think it was too late to get them out. Neither were they so busy that they could not spare the time to compile the information. The Y. W. C. A. merely organized itself into committees to gather the material. Then the organization financed the printing, and now the women of the university are selling the directories to the students at cost.
If the University of Nebraska can do it, why can't K. U.? Do the students of this university stop when confronted by a task easily accomplished by our neighboring institution? Is it more difficult to organize similar committees to canvass and solicit for various war funds?
Now that the Men's Student Council is revived, why could it not finance the printing of a directory? Since the W. S. G. A. is operating the Varsity dances, the Men's Student Council has more time than ever before to devote to some valuable enterprise like the directory proposition.
The thing can be done by University students, and it is not too late to do it now.

Won't someone start something at the University so we'll have water of some kind on the Hill? After spending forty-five minutes in a gymnasium class it is almost impossible to do without a drink. The water in the fountains is shut off and there is no distilled water. As a consequence the students have to do without water the entire time they are on the Hill.
It looks as though the members of our once-upon-a-time navy were about to receive one more jolt right between the eyes. Ensign Finnegan has received a $25,000 check from the government and has turned it over to the University. This amount settles the navy's contract with the University and includes full reimbursement for the time the men paid their own expenses—supposedly 35 days. University officials claim that navy men could have messed in Barracks 2, and accordingly expect to make very adequate reductions in the amount of reimbursement. Men on K. P. duty in Barracks 2 insist that the women in the period dish待 that they were never plated nor food to supply the total number of men, and that had they all tried to eat there at noon they could not possibly have been fed in time to get back to drill.
To The Daily Kansas:
Ensign Finnegan, who has been doing his best by the boys has about reached the end of his rope in sending out a set of questionaires to ascertain the actual length of time the men supported themselves, and the extent of their hospital duty, if any. The incident of hospital duty will apparently be considered conclusive proof that those men partook of the sumptuous hospital diet; and this circumstance will furnish a basis for further reductions in the amount of reimbursement. As it was, the basis was to be but a dollar a day, while the University has received a dollar and a quarter a day for the whole period of the unit's existence. The men are not worried over this, but they do object strenuously to any further nibbling at the money they should receive to pay overdue board-bills. It's pretty hard, after the navy finally does come across, to have the University get so much more than its share. Bricken was paid by the plate, according to his contract, yet the University wants to collect for thousands of plates for which it does not have to pay. A Victim.
University Daily Kansan:
The honor system is being discussed at the University and has been endorsed by leading students. The only objection K. U. men and women have to the system is the part that involves telling on others who cheat. It is a small matter to write an examination straight and make a written statement to that effect at the end of the paper.
Students hate to be tattlers. They will adopt the honor system, but hope that the cause asking that they tell on others who cheat be left out of the ruling. It is asking too much to ask a person to report a friend.

The city authorities, I think, will tell us that the city water is no better or worse than it has been for many years. We drank it before the analysis was given out by the water department. Why can't we have the city water turned on? Students who are afraid to drink it won't have to do so. Most of us use it for the chance, despite the analysis.

It is a small matter for the majority of students to go to a class. They go because it is time for that subject. The whistle blows and almost mechanically the majority file into class and take there usual places. In a spasmodic manner answers to roll call are given.

Must Give All People Opportunity to Americanize
(Continued from page 1)
present educational equipment.
Classes in elementary school subjects, as well as classes in history, mathematical, political science, and the like, should be given these people as 'fast as they are willing to enter them.
"Since these foreigners tend to congregate in centers where certain industries prevail rather than scatter evenly throughout the entire country, it is not fair to thrust the whole burden upon a community in which people live. The state must regard public jobs and community both in the management of this education and in the payment of its cost."
"In the next question, namely, Who shall control it and provide the funds? there are certain general principles to guide us.
"Since immigration laws are federal, then the federal government is responsible for the presence of these non-English speaking people in our country and should share in the burdening of Americanizing them.
"Since the local community where these people live is more definitely, more vitally affected by the standards of living maintained by these people, they should assist more generously than other communities in the state work.
"Trade unions themselves should undertake the active support of any scheme of Americanization. The chamber of commerce is another agency which should take a very active interest in the work of Americanization. Through this agency concerted action may be secured on the part of all the large employers of immigrant labor. Any employer is seldom to acknowledge his responsibility for the uilt of his employees, but if the chamber of commerce has whiproofs all the large employers it conceals it an issue and has a committee appointed to work out plans whereby the organization can assist in this work, employers as a rule will gladly co-operate. The public library should administer directly to the needs of the non-American element in the communities population.
"If then, we can combine the four agencies—the public schools, the trade unions, the chamber of commerce and the public libraries, and any other organizations which the community may possess whose interest may be enlisted in the cause, we shall be ready to work out the details of the plan to be put in operation in any community."
Said the colored lad as he was being mustered out, on being what train he was going to take for home: "Boss, I ain't gonna take no train. I lives two hundred miles away, and I goneanna - run the first eighteen, just to make sure they don't change their minds befo' I leave camp."—Camp Dix Times

Meats, Fats, and Milk Are Threatened By Rise of Bolshevism
Herbert Hoover Tells of Starving Condition of European Countries
Herbert Hoover, U. S. Food Admini-
strator and Director General of European relief, sent to the Administration in Washing a message giving details of food conditions in countries so far investigated by the American staff under the direction of Alonzo Taylor, in connection with Allied commissions. These surveys disclose that meats, fats and milk are so short in many regions that the health of the people is very much impaired, mortality among children is appalling and there is a constant menace through the threatened spread of Bolshevism, causally in the cities.
Crops were far below normal and the surplus is rapidly being exhausted, so that in many districts if starvation is not already at hand, it is only a short time ahead.
The investigations so far carried through indicate that the total amount of food needed by the countries under consideration will amount to about 1,400,000 tons to take them through until the next harvest, costing in the neighborhood of $350,000,000 delivered.
In his cable Mr. Hoover says:
"In his call to art," Wooer told
"our reports show, specifically, as
follows.
"Finland: The food is practically exhausted in the cities. While many of the peasants have some bread, other sections are mixing large amounts of straw. They are exhausted of fats, meats and sugar, and need help to prevent renewed rise of Bolshevism.
"Baltic States: The food may last one or two months on a much reduced scale. They sent a deputation to the minister at Stockholm imploring our food.
"Serbia; The town bread ration is down to three ounces daily in the north, not accessible from Salonica. In the south, where accessible, the army are formed as part of the civil compaition. We are trying to get food in from the Adriatic.
"Jugo Slavina: The bread ration in many towns is three or four ounces. All classes are short of fats, milk and meat."
"Vienna: Except for supplies furnished by the Italians and Swiss, their present bread ration of six ounces per diem would disappear. There is much illness from the shortage of fats, the ration is full on week. There is no coffee, sugar or eggs and practically no meat."
"Tyrol. The people are being fed by Swiss charity.
by Swiss charity.
"Poland: The peasants probably have enough to get through. The mortality in cities, particularly among children, is appalling for lack of fats, milk, meat and bread. The situation in bread will be worse in two months.
"Rumania: The bread supply for the entire people is estimated to last another thirty days. They are short of fats and milk. The last harvest was sixty per cent a failure.
"Armenia is already starving.
"Czecho Slavakia: There is large suffering on account of lack of fats
"Bulgaria: The harvest was also a failure here. There are supplies available for probably two or three months.
and milk. They have bread for two or three months and sugar for six months.
"We have each country under investigation as to the total amounts required to barely sustain life and their resources to pay."

WOMEN of slender figure are apt to think they can wear almost any corset.

Government Will Pay University For Loss In Building Barracks
NUMBER 60
College to Receive Difference Between First Cost and Amount Salvaged
Subsistence Money Soon
Men Will Be Paid as Soon as Funds Are Forwarded
The University of Kansas has been assured that it will be fully reimbursed for its expenditures for the S. A. T. C., according to Chancellor Frank Strong, who attended a meeting of the American Association of Universities last week in Chicago.
At this meeting, E.K. Hall, business manager for the S. A. T. C. of the Committee on Education and Special Training, outlined the manner of settlement of the financial problems connected with the disbanding of the S. A. T. C. The government will pay the difference between the first cost of the barracks and the amount received for them when salvaged, in this way preventing any loss to the University.
Subsistence money will be paid soon, and when it is received by the University arrangements can be made to pay the men for sustenance between October 1, and the date on which they moved into the barracks. The men will be paid the full amount received by the University. $1.25 "a day for room and board" and 65c a day for board alone.

"Courage and Its Application to College Life," was the key note of the talk given by Professor William L. Burdick Sunday evening before the Christian Endeavor of the Presbyterian church.
Professor Burdick urged students to give encouragement to others "Courage is aided by words of encouragement," he said. "The great encouragement is having a definite goal and working daily to reach tbh the highest point of the goal."
Dr. Burdick also cited different examples of men who possessed a large amount of courage. He spoke of the Theodore Roosevelt's courage, stories of the times in which great determination was shown by Grant and Napoleon, were told.

Popularity Election Put Off Till Friday By Jayhawker Manager
Graft Will Be Eliminated In Voting Plan. Says Hershey
"Because of conflicting interest in class and Jayhawker elections, the Popularity Election which was scheduled for Tuesday, January 21, has been postponed until Friday, January 24, and the sale of Jayhawkers will take place on Monday night," said Lynn Hershey, business manager of the 1919 Jayhawker today.
Hershey went on to say that a number of the students on the Hill misunderstood the principles of the election. "The only way graft can be eliminated is to hold just such an election as we are holding Friday. There will be no stuffing of the ballot box, only those can vote who can produce their receipts, and the whole class will vote for them in the class elections held last week. Electionering for the candidates will be permitted near the polls, and in this way, the voters will be able to judge each of the candidates.
"All ballots for the favorite candidates will be cast on Friday only, and the polls will be kept open from 9 until 4 o'clock. This will give every one who has bought a Jacqueline an offer to vote for his popular girl, and determine who the eight popular women, in the University of Kansas are."
The 1919 Jayhawker is being sold in the various buildings on the campus, and Thursday, January 23, is the latest date for the final sale of the Jayhawker. No more annuals will be sold after that date," said Mr. Hershey in a final statement.

Machine-like Precision Marked University's Play in Opening Game
Lose Second By One Point
Kansas and Ames broke even in the two-game series of basketball games played at Ames January 17 and 18, with the Jayhawker quintet winning the first game in handsy by the second. Ames won the second he by one point, 29 to 28.
In the opening game, the Kansas five played with a machine-like precision, and made basket after beak from the tip-off. Bennett led the scoring with seven field goals and a half-dozen free tosses, while Matthews and Miller each contributed five goals. The Ames team was off form, and eight men were used in the effort to stop Coach Hamilton's men. Shepard played a consistent game for the Argies. The score:

Nine hours later, replaced by **m** in the first half. The half ended with the Ames five leading, 18 to 9.
Kansas came back with a jump, and came within four points of tying the score. Mason was put out on personal fouls, Bunn was shifted to guard, and Lonberg took left forward. The Kansas five worked hard, and in the last five minutes of play, a free throw by Bennett, and a goal by Koehler near the end gave up. However, the whistle blew before Kansas could score again, and Ames finished one point in the lead. The score:

Military Discipline Is Declared Incompatible With College Training
Dean Kelly Draws Lessons from Experience With Student Army Corps
Division of Authority Fatal
Colleges Learn They Can Make Rapid Changes If Necessary
College education is essential for leadership .
Military discipline is incompatible with the highest type of college education.
Colleges must learn to be more easily adaptable to present demands. These are some of the conclusions reached by F. J. Kelly, dean of the School of Law, and dean of the University of Kansas, in an address at Tupelo Saturday afternoon before the college section of the Council of Administration at its first annual sessions. Dean Kelly, who was at the head of the educational work of the Students' Army Training Corps at the University, spoke largely from his own experience in treating the topic, "Lessons from the S. A. T. C.". Lessons particular attention to the fact that influenza quaranties and the signing of the armistice prevented a real test of the student army and confined his discussion to the underlying principles and how they were worked out under
TRIBUTE PAID TO COLLEGES
"Pe-hap the handsomest tribute ever paid to college education," said Dean Kelly, "was the plan of the government to pay the expenses of men in American colleges rather than that education should cease. In saying this, however, the government also should invest more in general, but college education pursued with a definite end in view, is worth paying for."
"The Government's assumption, on the other hand, that young men may acquire the useful features of a college education while under military discipline strikes at our most deepest educational convictions. Military discipline presupposes the cultivation of a disposition to follow more or less blindly the commands of leaders. It has a tendency to discourage initiative, independence and aggressiveness. The attitude of mind developed under military discipline is perhaps best expressed by the men themselves in the three little words, "passing the buck."
"Now all these tendencies are directly contrary to the college ideal of developing free-spirited leaders who assume responsibility easily, and execute their own, not others' plans.
COLLEGES LEARN TO ACT
It was not men with information only, but重要时 important that was, but with independence of spirit and high leadership who were eagerly sought to take positions of great responsibility in the conduct of the war. It seems to me the War Department was mistaken in its fundamental conception of the relation between discipline and college training, and I believe that one of the greatest lessons we may draw from our experiences is that the college people should work out a definition of the end in view in college training in clear enough language for anybody to understand." Dean Kelly cited the speed with which the plans of the college were changed, from the semester plan to the four-quarter plan, in order to meet the needs of the War Department, and declared the colleges have changed, incurring the danger of falling behind instead of being leaders in their state. He brought out also the difficulties arising from divided authority under the S. A. T. C. plan. "There is no reason why experts in military training should not be engaged by the University of college, the same as experts in chemistry, or history, or engineering. These experts in military training should work directly under the authority of the college and should not derive their sow from any source outside the college like the War Department. This is one lesson unquestionably taught by the S. A. T. C. A divided leadership management of those work efforts."

Can you imagine any thing worse than having two dates for the same night? Of course, that is a woman's trick, but it actually happened to on of the lady-fussers at the University just last night. He arrived at one o his dates house and had not been there more than a half an hour until he re membered that he had another date and was going to party. He immediately became dreadfully ill, faked the flu, and left — to keep the other date.
Prof. Arthur MacMurray went to the phone the other day and said "1243 please."

Lawrence G.A.R Post Demands Resignatian Of Prof. F.H. Hodder
Civil War Veterans Send Resolution to Board of Administration
Resent Attack on Roosevelt
Hodder's Statement of "Roosevelt is a Typical Prussian," Causes Trouble
The Lawrence post of the G.A.R. in a meeting Saturday afternoon adopted a resolution petitionting the State Board of Administration to demand the resignation of Prof. F. H. Hodder because of a statement he made in a speech before the Women's Forum November 21.
The statement as quoted in the resolution is: "Germany is not the only country which has Prussians. In the United States, Theodore Roosevelt is a typical Prussian and a militarist in every sense of the word."
A person expressing such sentiments, the resolution says, is unfitted to teach in the University.
Professor Hodder, when shown a copy of the resolution today, would say nothing about it or about his attitude toward it.
The resolution follows:
"Whereas on November 21, 4018, man address before the Women's Forum of the University of Kansas, Professor F. H. Hodder of the department of history, made the following statement: 'Germany is not the only country which has Prusians. In the United States, Theodore Roosevelt is a typical Prussian and a militarist in every sense of the word.'
"Therefore, Be it Resolved by Washington Post No. 12, G.A.R., that we believe that a teacher of history in the State University of Kansas capable of expressing the above sentiments, is unfitted to teach the youth in our university, and we petition the Board of Administration of educational institutions to demand the resignation of Professor Holder.
"And be it further resolved that a copy of these resolutions be sent to Governor Henry J. Allen and to the State Board of Administration of educational institutions."
Dr. R. C. Hughes Talks On Religion of Future
Christianity Overcomes Docrines of Nietsche by Force of Arms'
"The state universities, representing as they do, the best elements of the state, and representing, too, all sections of the state, must be the centers from which religion of the future takes its life," said Dr. R. C. Hughes, field secretary of the Presbyterian Board of Education, in an address Monday afternoon in Fraser chapel.
"The religion of the future must be a unified religion," he said. "The various church organizations must together. I do not mean there should be churches, but there should be unity of purpose and a unity of work.
"Wars, in the past, have been followed by periods of materialism. After the strain of conflict, there is a tendency to relax religious practice. To meet this condition, and to do all possible to counteract it, working especially through the state universities, is the purpose of our committee. It is not our purpose to advance the bishopian church alone, but to put the church into a position to do its part in the movement. Just last week there was a meeting in Chicago, attended by representatives of eighteen denominations, for the purpose of formulating plans for this advance movement.
"We are in a position to attempt this task, for Christianity has just met its greatest assault and has conquered so far as force of arms can conquer. The teachings of Nietsche that the many must suffer that a few geniuses may be developed is the essence of German culture, and German culture is the exact contrary of the teachings of Christ."
Track prospects at the University of Illinois took a jump yesterday with the return of Charley Carroll, star spinner and Captain of the track team. Carroll has just received his discharge from the army.

The Daily, Kansas aims to picture the undergraduate life of its students to go further than merely print the news by standing for the deaths the University is paying for.

K.U. NEEDS CONVOCATIONS
"The second All-University Convocation held this morning was a decided success, from the standpoint of enthusiasm shown on the part of those attending. Standing room was at a premium, every seat being occupied."
The above paragraph was taken from the files of the Daily Kansan for October 8, 1915, when bi-weekly convocations were established at the University. revioPu to this time, morning prayers were held from eight to eight-thirty o'clock in the morning and occasional convocations at tenthirty o'clock. These forms of gatherings gave way to the convocations given regularly every two weeks, not because they were unsuccessful but because the bi-weekly plan was more successful.
These gatherings developed a unity of spirit throughout the entire University which is impossible to gain in any other manner. They brought the students of all of the schools together and developed a united school spirit. These meetings were a regular family affair and students became acquainted with the administrative officers as well as the members of the faculty of the other schools in the University.
The disorganization and lack of unity of spirit brought about by war conditions is more evident in the University this year than ever before. All-University convocations are imperative if this condition be remedied. Convocations have been generally abandoned this year due to peculiar conditions, but now that the University is entering into the stable pre-war regime, these general gatherings should be revived.
The bi-weekly convocation was the most successful in previous years, and that plan should be resumed now. It would mean but two hours a month taken from regular schoolwork, and in return entertainment, instruction, and a united purpose for the whole University would be gained.

BOWED DOWN WITH CARE
Do you know the person who is always wishing that this week were over, that that event had happened, and that he were through with something he had to do tomorrow?
He gives you the impression that next week he will have an amiable disposition and a happy smile for everyone, but that just now he is holding

He has ever heard that mournful ballad to the effect that "All the to-morrows will be as today." He is the unspeakable bore.
Webster says that a "nuisance is that which annoys or gives trouble or vexation." The K. U. version goes this way: "Nuisances in college are those students who come to ask you to do for them what they could have done twice for themselves while they were asking it."
FOWLER SHOP A CAFE TERIA?
When a family outgrows its home it moves into another. As the years roll by, the modest equipment with which the family set up housekeeping is increased, repaired, and replaced. The analogy between the home which shelters and the institution which shelteris plain. Years ago the University of Kansas set up housekeeping. As the years rolled around and its family increased an endeavor was made to enlarge its boundaries and to increase its equipment in order that it might accommodate the sons and daughters of a prosperous and rapidly growing state. That these efforts were not always successful is too well known to bear repetition. The point is that now the needs of state institutions may be met promptly without the humiliating appeals used in former years.
The permanent income bill has made possible new buildings, and among these are listed auditoriums, dining halls, cafeterias and dormitories.
The completion of the Administration Building at the University of Kansas will greatly improve conditions. However, there still remains the need of an auditorium, dormitories, and a suitable building for the use of the department of home economics. A building and house for the department of home economics is, perhaps the most urgent needs of the University at the present time.
For years this department has carried on its work in the basement of Fraser Hall. Despite the handicap of its own inconvenient location, the department has succeeded in securing temporary, cheerful quarters in Myers Hall, which have been fitted up as a cafeteria. It now feeds several hundred students daily. The department has assumed this new responsibility cheerfully. It is doing its best, with the meager means at hand, to serve the students. It has served the state loyally and has complained only occasionally of its underground workshop.
Recently it was suggested that the work now carried on in Fowler Shops should be more closely related to the power plant of the University and to the School of Engineering and that if a suitable building or annex could be erected for this purpose it would greatly simplify the work of the shops and promote economy. This, according to a recommendation made recently by the Board, would vacate the Fowler Shop building which could then be converted into a modern, up-to-date cafeteria and home economics department. The cost would be small. The present temporary quarters of the cafeteria, are not large enough to accommodate the crowds of students who patronize it.

Holders of United States war savings stamps who may have incomplete books need feel no anxiety for that reason. They will have value at maturity. The Assistant Director of Government Savings, Vernon Monroe, advises that these stamps be held and carefully preserved until they mature in 1923. The counsel often given with regard to the war savings stamps that may be lost are forgotten, holds good also with relation to Liberty Bonds. There is an evident and concerted movement among promoters of questionable enterprises to separate holders from these engravings, and this movement should be determined resisted—Christian Science Monitor.
WAR AND COLLEGE ATHLETICS

Who say she has read all of Scott, Dickens, and Thackery?
Who complains about her flunk, and weeps copiously in the office of the man prof, making him appear to be a tyrant?
Who does not know how many hours of his major he has had, or just what he is taking this quarter?
Among the American institutions which the war may help us to reform is college athletics. The abuses of the competitive system, which were not so plain to all eyes when the great intercollegiate contests were on, now loom large because of clearer vision brought by the war suspension.
Who insists on talking in class t make up for having read nothing o the subject?
There are great benefits to be derived, no doubt, from intercollegiate contests, but far greater are those to students in the system upon the whole student body.
It all comes down to the question, What is the aim and purpose of college athletics? Is it to advertise the collegiate institution, to build up a tradition and a practice of college spirit, to furnish excitement for the alumni and the public as well as for the student body? Or is it to endow the individual members of the student body with health and strength?
Doubtless both these objectives might well be aimed at, but the benefit to the individual student should be paramount. The great fault of college athletics before the war was that is magnified the institution, glorified the prowess of its "teams," professionalized the participants, made their number, made of itself a painful business—and all at the expense of the individual student's health and strength, which were not benefited at all unless he was susceptible of being developed into a super-athlete.
This fact has been strikingly illustrated by the results of physical exercise in the military training camps. Every soldier, marine and sailor has partaken of these benefits, and a striking improvement in physical fitness has invariably ensued. There have been some competitive contests between teams representing various camps, but these have been properly subordinated to the rule that every man in training must be developed to the utmost physically. Is it not possible, now that war has all but washed the slate clean, to resume college athletics on a plan that will look first of all to the physical well being of every student, and will reduce competitions to their proper role in college life?

Insanity drove Frederick William IV from the Prussian throne in 1858. Shortly before that a fizzled German revolution came near accomplishing the same result. But Frederick William had his merry little fling before he signed the throne over to his son. He felt his people the same. "He had a recent wilted offshoot of the family tree, and he got away with some of the same kingly exuberance in the United States.
"The plaintiff (Frederick William IV, King of Prussia) states that he is the absolute monarch of the Kingdom of Prussia, and as king thereof is the sole government of that country; that he is unrestrained by any constitution or law, and that his laws are not binding on his behalf of that country and is the only legal power there known to exist as law." —Glendon Allvine.

University Orchestra Wants College Credit For Laboratory Work
School of Fine Arts Will Fur
nish Equipment for Smy-
phony Work
There will be a meeting of the administrative committee of the College, tonight, to decide upon the time for a conference with the faculty of the School of Fine Arts, on the question of college credit for applied music.
A symphony orchestra is the thing most desired by the faculty of the School of Fine Arts, according to Dean Butler. They want members of such an organization to receive laboratory credit for orchestra practice.
"The School of Fine Arts," said Dean Butler, "is willing to furnish the equipment and the director free if such an arrangement can be made. At least forty colleges and universities in this country already give college credit for orchestra work. If students are given credit for studying English literature why not for studying music?"
"No far the University orchestra is composed entirely of violins with the organ for the remaining parts. At least forty-five pieces are necessary to study the best selections. Busy students of the best talent will not come out for practice to make an orchestra to be proud of, unless they can get credit for their work."
Some members of the administrative committee are known to be opposed to giving credit to orchestra members toward an A.B. degree, because it seems to them merely a laboratory course in the School of Fine Arts.

Approximately one hundred fifty applications for work for university women have come into Miss Duffield's office since last summer. About half of the women desired to be entirely self-supporting while the other half wanted to earn enough to pay a part of their school expenses.
Work done by self-supporting University women is of great variety. Some do stenography and are paid by the hour. Others wait tables for their board or do house work and care for children. Positions in down town stores are also open to women. Just now very few applications have been coming to the office as the women
"Of course, this number does not represent the total number of women of the University who are self-supporting." said Miss Duffield, "for many of them get positions independent of this office."
Book Exchange not to be Closed
Money will not be returned to the students whose books have been sold by the K. U. Book Exchange after today. The Book Exchange will not be closed for the rest of the term, but will probably be opened one hour each day at which time books may be either bought or exchanged. At other times the books will be in charge of Miss Sellards, and all books not in use as text books will be turned over to the Red Cross, unless called for before January 25.

Telescope Mountings And Equipment Asked For Astronomy Work
Exceedingly Accurate Clocks May Tell K. U. Time If Budget Passes
No longer will the University of Kansas be known as the largest university in the United States without an observatory, if the present legislature appropriates the budget asked by the University.
The observatory is expected to cost $3,500. Major Alter's plan is to locate the observatory in a frame building between Haworth Hall and the barracks. On one side of the structure, will be placed the two transit instruments, and on the opposite side the six-inch equatorial telescope. The class-room will be a room 30x35 in size, large enough to seat approximately 100 students.
The telescope, which has for a long time been a part of the equipment of the physics and astronomy departments, but because of the lack of a suitable location has not been used, the telescope was moved to Alter, professor in the department of astronomy, be made use of in the spring if the budget passes.
"These instruments must be so mounted that no part of their base will be in contact with the building," said Major Alter, "since the slightest jarming of the building, even by walkers, could be avoided to set the instruments on pieces which are set in the ground, with the floor built around them."
Another plan of the department, according to Major Alter, is to use these instruments in determining the correct time for the University. With the better transit, it is possible to determine within one-hundredth of a second of accurate time. The rooms in which these are kept must be continually at outdoor temperature.
The department wishes to replace the tower clock in Blake Hall with a clock that will give accurate time. The old clock is run by electricity, and requires practically $300 a year to keep it in repair. A weight clock, on the other hand, costs only $500 and
requires little added expense to keep it running.
The two standard clocks will be kept in the basement of the observatory beneath the class room. In order to prevent any harmful influence of temperature upon the accuracy of the clocks, this room will always be kept closed. The clocks have mercury filled pendulums to counteract any effects of the temperatures, but this is not always successful.
"These standard clocks," said Major Alter, "may be depended upon for accuracy to the one-hundredth part of a second, while the inaccuracy of an ordinary clock is about a minute a day. The better of the two standard clocks will be in a vacuum in order that no outside changes may reach the mechanism of he timepiece. Air will be pumped out to make the clock run faster, and let in to make it run slower."
Sport Beams
The University of Missouri will make no attempt to have a baseball team this year, according to reports, but expects to revive the national pastime in 1920. Baseball has been a paying game at the Tiger school. The Tiger sport writer holds that all athletes that are not paying will be dropped if baseball is issued in the country. It doesn't matter if the ball does not pay here but Kansas has the material and Coach Hamilton is willing to put a team in the field if the opposition offers to maintain baseball as a Valley sport this year.
The big leagues are getting ready for their season's start. The professional baseball players who evaded the draft are finding it hard to land a berth with the big leaguers. In a few weeks stories of "Charley Horses" and the like will be coming from the big league training camps of the South and in California.
Five members of the Kansas State Agricultural College football team have been named for places on the Missouri Valley conference honor roll, established this year to take the place of the all-star elevens, which were abandoned because of the irregular season.

"But over in Armenia, and Syria, and the rest of those eastern countries," continued the O.F.A. for A.R. "the trouble is the hot filling dinners and the side orders of hot cakes are made." Most American people are asked to give of their bounty to help the starving neighbor."
"Seventeen cents a day—the price of the aforesaid loaf of bread and a doughnut—will sustain life of one of these refugees for a day. Five dollars will do it for a month. In asking students to help, the request is for 51 cents—food for three days for one person.

Y. W.C.A. Secretary To National Meeting
Miss Katherine Duffield Will Be In New York Three Weeks
Miss Katherine Duffield, secretary of the Young Woman's Christian Association, has gone to New York City to work on the National Board of the Y. W. C. A., which will meet for three weeks. The board has called in a number of the strongest secretaries from all over the United States who will make plans for a campaign of two or three weeks to be held in the spring.
"The campaign for money will be finished by that time, and we are planning to have this spring campaign one which will work out a strong program for the Y. W. C. A. work all over the college world." said Mrs. W. J. Baumgartner, who is national secretary of the local board.
"The campaign will provide speakers of national and foreign repute, who will address the Y. W. C. A. membership at the various colleges. Our local board was very glad to release Miss Duffield from her duties for a few weeks in order that she might attend this meeting, as we feel that it is an honor to her and to the University."

Senate Re-establishes University Gym Work Back on Pre-War Basis
Each School Will Make Own Rules for Physical Education
Laws Not In Old Orders
School of Engineering Required Freshmen to Go to Robinson Gym
The University Senate decided as its meeting last night that, beginning next quarter, all physical education of the University of Kansas, should be conducted on a pre-war basis. This means that since the military will take ing in the United States, all practical exercise according to the old rules, in the various departments.
In the School of Engineering, freshmen are required to take three hours physical training a week. Sophomores, juniors and seniors are ex-
In the College all freshmen have bee required to take three hours phi- phi education a week and other classes, two hours a week.
The members of the School of Law have never taken physical training although the Senate decided they should.
Until military training was installed last year, none of the men in the School of Pharmacy were required to take physical training and it will now continue on the same plan.
Wome: Satisfied With Gym Work
Now Required—Dr. Goet
That the action taken by the senate last night in putting requirements for physical education back on a pre-war basis is not demanded by University women is the opinion of Dr. Alice L. Goetz, head of the department of physical education for women. Junior and senior women, Doctor Goetz said, have e- pressed themselves as being in favor of the two hours a week of gymnasium work which is required at present.
"Most upperclass women feel that physical education is necessary for good health and that two hours a week is not excessive. Many have said that they would not take the time for it if it was not required, since no credit is given in any school for the time spent, but that the compulsory rule, which is taken to promote the better health of students, meets with their approval.
UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS, TUESDAY AFTERNOON, JANUARY 21, 1919.
"The senate ruling last spring, which required three hours a week for freshmen and sophomores and two hours a week for juniors and seniors was a progressive rulings." Doctor Goetz said, "and would have been the first step in building up a better system of physical education and in improving the health of University women. The best proof of its acceptance by the student body is the fact that only a few of the 800 women in the University are in this year about gymnastics work. One hundred and sixty-seven women have been put on the exempt list because of legitimate excuses. This includes women who are working their way through college.
"The ruling which took the department out of the college and made it a part of the whole University was logical because if physical education is good for a student in one school, it is good for all students.
"Charges of over-crowding, lack of equipment, and poor ventilation in the gymnasium have been brought against the department of physical education. These conditions obtain in practically every department of the University and classes in other department are not stopped for those reasons. The women's side of the gymnasium is well-ventilated although lighting conditions are not satisfactory.
“Conditions at Kansas are not worse than at other Universities which do not have a special gymnasium for women. The best means to obtain more adequate facilities for Kansas is to demonstrate by the overcrowded conditions that such facilities are available and to standid at present to take over one of the barracks on the campus for the use of the classes in sports and games.
"The weather makes it impossible for outdoor sports most of the time during the winter and on pleasant days. The only fields available for women.
"As for compulsory physical education, that system has been adopted
by leading universities in America. Since academic credit cannot be given for exercise and since university authorities feel that exercise is essential the only alternative is to make it compulsory. If departments of physical education could compete with academic courses for credit compulsory ruling would not be necessary. "The system devised by the senate for the University last spring should be given at least a year of trial, both because the spirit of University women has been to accept it and because of the disorganization in the department will occur inevitably."
Men Training in S.A.T.C. Fina Weight to Break German Resistance
Problem of Barracks Now Being Considered By Business Manager
"The problem of disposing of the S. A. T. C. barracks is before James A. Kimball, business manager of the board. This question must be settled and all arrangements made before the men get their subsistence money. The University will have to figure the amount due each man and see that one each gets full payment," said Chancellor Strong this morning.
Several suggestions are offered concerning the purpose to which the barracks might be put. They may be kept as laboratories for the engineers. W. O. Hamilton of the athletic department and members of the team to use training quarters for University athletes. Several bids have been turned to Topela by different salvaging companies and one building may be used as a store house.
"The work done in this country by the S.A.T.C. was not in vain," said the Chancellor. "The fact that the Germans knew that one million men and two thousand officers were being trained in the Universities of this country was a great influence on the early signing of the armistice."
Women Elect Captains For Class Basket Bal
Seniors and Freshmen Make Good Showing In

Betas and Kappa Sigs Penalized for Holding Dances After Midnight
Disciplinary Committee Limits
Two Frats to One More
Dance
Two student organizations, the Kappa Sigma and Beta Theta Pi fraternities have been called before the Disciplinary Committee of the University for violating the Senate's ruling that all dancing parties shall close at 12 o'clock. Both fraternities admitted they had conducted dances in theaters. They were easily alienated by the Disciplinary Committee by being prohibited from holding any dancing parties the remainder of this quarter and by being allowed to have only one dance the rest of this academic year.
"There was no excuse for these fraternities violating this ruling," said Prof. D. L. Patterson, chairman of the Disciplinary Committee. "This ruling has been published a number of times in The Daily Kansan and all the rules of the Senate and W. S. G. A. were read and explained at the meeting called by Alberta Corbin, adviser of women some time ago. The violation was therefore, deliberate and was treasured as such.
“$\alpha$ majority of the student organizations have been very good about abiding by this rule and all other regulations that have been asked of them by the United States Food Administration. The student organizations should be committed to their co-operation in all war features.”
Boarding Club Menus Should Be Approved For Student Health
Dr. Sherbon Advocates Officia Standardizing of Food by K.U. Authorities
K. U. Authorities
"The University should protect the health of its student body by standardizing the boarding houses as it standardizes the rooming houses," said Dr. Florence Sherbon, recently. "Every boarding house should be required to keep its menus and submit them regularly to a qualified committee which would pass on them. Official approval should be given only to those confronting to the modern needs of balanced diet for students."
"We will never get very far with a universal health program until the person who presumes to feed a family or group will be required to have taken a vocational course covering the anatomy and physiology of the digestive organs, the principles of nutritious composition and food preparation.
"One of my worst problems is the dietary served to the University students at their boarding places. There is scarcely a student getting a properly balanced diet and often the results are serious. The women who are conducting boarding tables are doing so, not because they know anything about food or the dietetic requirements of students, but because they must make a living. Very often they spend more money on what they serve than proper food would cost. They simply have had no vocational preparation for doing a really specialized and important kind of work.
"It is just as important to feed the body wisely as it is to feed the mind. Students come to me every day complaining that they feel dull and heavy and tired mentally and give me such menus as this: Roast pork, macaroni and cheese, peas, chocolate pudding.
Another student reported she had at the previous meal: Creamed chicken, creamed potatoes, creamed carrots, no other Fresh vegetables were served.
There seems to be a general excess of fats and starch and an almost universal lack of fruits and fresh vegetables. Fresh fruit and vegetables are not cheap but neither are fats and sugar. The same money might easily furnish a far better variety of foods. It is simply a lack of knowledge and not economy or intentional neglect.
"It is just as unreasonable to treat the human machinery this way as it would be to feed slack and shale into a furnace and expect to keep up a good head of steam."
Want Winsome Women To Wait Wife's Table
"I would entertain a great deal more if I could get girls to help me serve," said one of the professors' wives the other day.
"That is one of the big reasons why I do not do so," said another.
"Do you know that many of the girls of the University do not know how to serve a real good meal. The girls in the Domestic Science department are good but they do not seem willing to come and help."
"That is true but have you ever thought about asking them to do so? I don't believe that they know we want help."
"Why not tell the Kansan about your trouble and see if it won't help you a@ get a nice girl to aid you on the days you want to entertain?"
"That is a good plan. I wonder
just why I hadn't thought of that befor-
e."
"Then there is another thing. So many of the young people of the college complain about not getting acquainted with the professor. Don't you think that they could learn to know us much better if they would offer their help? I am sure we would appreciate it."
Plain Tales From the Hill
Will the music advertised for Varsity dances ever be?
"Why a Phi Psi?" was the reply. "When you have a Phi Psi date to a Varsity you get to dance with the whole fraternity as they date in reals. Only two men are allowed a date and the rest, who stag the舞, take care of the two dates in relay fashion. I like it myself."
"Do you like a Phi Psi date for a Varsity dance?" asked one of the popular University women, this morning.
It is reported that one candidate in the recent election pledged three fraternities and does not know which one to take-now. Instead of striking a happy medium he is considering dropping all of them.
A certain freshman was broke Saturday night and had a woman friend coming over from Kansas City for the dance. Upon discovering his plight he called the woman over the phone and confessed. She came on and turned the tables by ushering him around on her father's account.
"That woman is a regular girl," he told the fellows at the house after the wedding.
A frush was called before a professor for a conference concerning his class conduct. Several were waiting to be called into the inner office and the last man nipped a cigar from the pocket of the professor while in the ante room.
Where are the politicians, who ruddered women down the campus so gracefully before the election?
Students of Fine Arts To Elect Class Officers
A mass meeting of all students of School of Fine Arts will be at 4:30 o'clock Wednesday afternoon in Room 110 Fraser Hall. This meeting will be for the purpose of organizing the students of the Fine Arts School and electing school officers for the rest of the year.

Millard K. Shaler, '04 Made Knight of Legion Of Honor By French
One of First Americans to Organize Belgian Relief
Worked With Mr. Hoover
Before the War Was Geologist With Expedition to Congo
Millard K. Shaler, who was graduated from the department of mining engineering of the School of Engineering in 1904, has been made a knight of the Legion of Honor by the French Government as an expression of their recognition of his work as a matte of the Commission of Belgium.
Mr. Shaler, who had his office in Brussels at the opening of the war in 1914, was one of the first Americans to begin work for the relief of Belgium. He was also associated with Charles Heineman, American banker, and interested Herbert Hoover in that work in London.
He was instrumental in interesting Herbert Hoover in Belgian relief work and was one of the organizers of the Commission of Relief of Belgium, known in Belgium and Northern France as the C.R.B.
Before the war Mr. Shaler had offices in London and was connected with G. H. Bishops Gate, a London firm. After leaving the University he spent several years in the Congo as official geologist for the Guggenheim Expedition Company. He is now in London.
He is the first graduate of the University to receive the decoration of the Legion of Honor.

D. H. Reitzel Visiting Journalism Classes
D. In Reitz, a former student in the department of journalism, was a visitor to the University since leaving the University in 1917. Reitz has been employed with a couple of small papers in Iowa and with the Kansas City Star. he is now employed by the Kansas City Journal as assistant teerlanz editor.
"Never work on a small paper if you intend to work later in the city. You will find the small town style hard to get rid of," Mr. Reitzel said. "I think that every student when he steps on this hill should say just what he intends to do when he leaves the University, then he should be allowed to take just those things which pertain to his future vocation. What does a newspaper man want with a lot of science or mathematics? What is wanted in journalism in history, art, or literature? Some cultural sciences such as Greek drama or Greek art and all the literature courses one can find. Above all things, all forms of military training should be abolished, it doesn't give a man time to think. Every student should be required to take part in some form of major athletics instead," was the sum of what Mr. Reitzel had to say with regard to future journalists.

COLLEGIATE CREDIT FOR ARMY WORK
University men who have been in the service, and who are now returning to the Hill believe that in many instances they should receive credit for various lines of work done in the army. The University granted credits to the men who left the S. A. T. C. detachment here to go to officers' training camps, but no definite basis for men who did not enter the army through the University has been established.
It seems only fair that a man who has been in the service other than the S. A. T. C. should get just as much credit as the men in the S. A. T. C. Most of them have had more actual experience and more specific training in War Aims than those who remained here in the University. Many men who are returning to school are officers who have had enough experience to equal a year's work in the University. Later men will come back who have seen service in France. Will they receive credit in the University?
Some think that if a man asks for credit for war work that he is trying to beat the University out of that many hours' credit. Others are inclined to look on the matter in a more favorable light. They suggest that the individual should state just exactly what he has been doing and should be granted credit according to the amount of work he has done.
Harvard and Yale are considering the plan of giving to any man who returns to school this year credit for a full year. Other schools are considering the plan of giving from five to twenty hours credit for war work. The Canadian colleges are giving full credit for a year's academic work to all men who have joined the military or naval service since last April.
This same plan was brought up before the annual convention of the American College Association but was not voted upon, pending the return of army officers representing the educational division of the War Department.
PROFESSORS NEED PUBLIC SPEAKING
No, friend professor, you are not getting by! When you think you can come to class, slide down in your chair, cross your feet, and gaze out of the window while you are conducting a class, you are fooling no one but your poor deluded self. Your very attitude shows a lack of interest and indifference, and you may be sure that if you are not interested in the subject you the attempting to teach, that your class will not be.
Remember the big problem in putting an idea across, is the intense desire to communicate the thought to the
audience. If you do not have this desire do not blame your students for going to sleep or looking bored. And what is more, if your students get anything from your course it will be because they are very conscientious or because they are intensely interested in the subject and are willing to do much more outside reading. It is much the same with teachers who read their pictures—lectures which have been copied in whole or in part from text books, and which contain many highounding but meaningless phrases.
The best thing for you to do is to take a course in Public Speaking—in fact there should be a law to the effect that no one shall be permitted to obtain a teacher's certificate until he has had thorough preparation in Public Speaking. If you are unable to appear before a class and talk so the members will remain awake, then your vocation in life is not teaching and you should overcome your failings or go into the landscape-gardening profession. If, on the other hand, you know your subject thoroughly and are so unfortunate as to have no public speaking ability, then publish a text book and let some one teach it who has the ability, to get the ideas across.
There are only a few plutocrats in the University who have cars here at school, but for the benefit of those persons and the mail-man on the Hill, a good roads campaign on the campus would not be at all inappropriate.
Six-sevenths of the students of the University are church members, and only one-seventh of the entire enrollment attend church here in Lawrence. Perhaps the non-members are investigating to see if there is anything in it, and the members feel so sure of their spiritual status that there is no necessity for undue exertion.
MOUNT OREAD OBSERVATORY
The astronomical observatory proposed by the department of astronomy and waiting for legislature appropriations for construction of the building will be an addition of great importance to the equipment of the University.
The University of Kansas is the largest university in the United States that does not have such an observatory. Mount Oread affords, however, an ideal location for astronomical observation, taking all climatic conditions into consideration, according to local experts in astronomy.
Apparatus to equip the building is already possessed by the University. It is stored away in Blake Hall and is rarely used because there are no proper mountings for the instruments.
An observatory will cost about $3,500, according to estimates by Major Alter, professor in the department of astronomy.
Because of the factors that favor the establishment of an observatory on Mount Oread and the advantages it would lend to the University, it is expected that the state legislature will appropriate the small amount necessary for its institution.
The department of astronomy was started at the University at the beginning of this quarter. Formerly one or sometimes several courses in astronomy were offered. A great impetus will be given the new department if the observatory is established, and the University will have a facility that offers opportunity for worthwhile scientific research.
In a suffrage state and a coeducational university, a picture of Susan B. Anthony, trail-breaker of suffrage, has hung practically unnoticed and never mentioned in the public prints since May, 1917. The photograph of Miss Anthony was given to Spooner Library by Miss Kate Stephens, author of Kansas books, and a graduate and former professor in the University.
The picture is a profile in a rococo frame placed in a larger oval frame. It hangs in the south-east corner of the library near Miss Carrie Watson's office, and bears the inscription, "This Photograph taken in Rome, Anthony gave me in Berlin in 1883. Kate Stephens,"
Skiing is very popular at the MeGill university this month.

THE LINGERING SNOW
Along the mountain top a gleam,
Misty and silver, half a dream
Of holiness upon the air,
So far it is, so fair.
And on the garden-side a drift
Touched by a sunbeam strong and swift
But soiled and dun the broken crust,
O'berblown with lathy dust.
And this shall slowly drip and drip.
And round the eager root shall slip.
And come again to light where blows
the whorl of some red rose.
From ledge to ledge in one gid sweep.
Powder to fom and hinge a veil;
From ledge to ledge in one gid sweep.
And this shall feed great brooks that lean
Ob, beauty of the falling mist,
Dissolved on distant amethyst.
As royal thun where stuled snow
Brings the great rose to blow!
Campus Opinion
—Harriet Prescott Spofford in Th Century.
This Column is Open to all Students of the University
Editor Daily Kansan:
Better music should be secured for the all-University dances. Only one of the dance halls in Lawrence is available for University dances and this always assures the dance managers of a paying crowd every Friday or Saturday night.
To The Daily Kansan:
At first sight it is seems pathetic that a group of fine old gentlemen who's glory it is that they did their part to promote the physical freedom of mankind, should be found protesting against freedom of expression exercised by a fellow citizen with whom they do not happen to agree. But it is not pathetic, it is fine. They are a little band of stalwart fighters and they propose to go on fighting to the end.
Under the present regime one must put on a dance at his fraternity house to be assured of real music. All students are not included in dances. It is an expensive pastime when a few pay for high class music, and many more could enjoy the same music for the same price.
Of course the protest of the Lawrence G. A. R. against Professor Hodder's criticism of Colonel Roosevelt is in itself thoroughly bad. It would punish a man for stating views which it was his right and probably his duty to express a matter which he regarded as vital to the interests of the country. Suppression of opinion is not the goal toward the world seems to be moving. But the real cause of the resentment manifest in the resolutions printed in your paper yesterday is probably less the substance of what Professor Hodder said than its form. It is undeniably true that Professorhodder chose rather forceful terms than well-thought-out humility most as forceful as the terms which Colonel Roosevelt habitually chose to characterize persons with whom he disagreed. Colonel Roosevelt's friends in the Lawrence G. A. R. might well recall his hard hitting proclivities and its downright enjoyment of a merry light.
This year dances have been advertised with reputable musicians but upon arrival at the hall students are greeted with a medicine violinist and an unknown accompanist. The students attend these dances every week and take the dance managers' excuses for having such music instead of the advertised players as a matter of course. This happens regularly.
More than one hundred couples usually attend all-University dances here. This crowd will pay for the best music. More students would defend themselves in a dance if they were better. The students would become more democratic.
Again, at first thought, it seems that if a protest against Professor Hodder's remarks was to have been made, it should have been made before the incident was practically forgotten and not after Colonel Roosevelt's death when all controversy about him was naturally laid aside. He was also likely to be particularly in such matters. Our most dynamic American is, after all, about as much a living influence in our affairs as he ever was.
So there is no occasion for any objection to the well meant activities *f* the Lawrence Post. It did them all and will not do anybody my harm.
The University should either place a ban on advertising players that do
L. N. F.
not arrive or see that rqal music is
secured for the dances and that it
is played.
When this is accomplished democracy will be established and students will have a better and a cheaper time.
BOGUS HEROES
There have been a lot of bogus heroes in America since the army began dispatching men back to the States for sickness, wounds, training and other reasons. Every soldier who goes home has been until proved otherwise, and the temptation not to prove themselves has been too much for some.
One Who Tried It Last Saturday.
There is the case of the air service mechanic who went back with heart trouble. His home town newspaper printed his "dairy," which recounted several stirring fights over the German lines, all imaginary. The nearest he had been to the front was Issoudun.
But, once the idea is around, and once we get back with our first hand knowledge of affairs over here, the bogo hero is going to have a pretty thorny trail—Stars and Stripes, France.
Merely Mental Lapses Jokes and Alleged Jokes
There is the case of the sergeant who lectured on the Battle of Cantigny for the fourth Liberty Loan, and sold a lot of bonds, too, until he was found to have spent all his stay in France, barring traveling time, at LeMans.
And there is the case, just to show how hard it was to be a hero, of the major who returned and, merely obeying military regulations, refused to be interviewed. As far as he had got toward gunfire and danger was a training school at Langres. "Modest-ness," he said, "was this the art in Château Thierry fighting" was the second line of the heading over the story about him in the next morning's paper. The fault was the newspaper's, not the major's.
To date in the eyes of the people back home, every soldier who has been in Europe has undergone the horrors of the front. Private Johnnie Jones, whose greatest hardship in this war was taps at 9:30, was pictured in his home journal and captioned—"John Jones of this city, now battling for freedom in the trenches." It is going to be hard to convince the home folks that of the 2 million Americans in France, half of them, through no fault of his own, of course, never got under fire."
SOME UNUSUAL LADIES
Topeka State Journal.
Sir-I see, according to the want a department of your paper, that "A Blue-Serge woman's suit" is for sale; "a solid gold lady's ring and 'a diamond lady's solitaire." Note also a reference to a "corrugated paper man." Would suggest that the corrugated paper man select one of these ladies for a wife. The blue serge woman would perhaps be more fitting than the solid gold woman or the diamond woman—E. N. Graves.
And, by the way, has any one
sued to ask why the peace confer-
ance is not being held in that lovely
way? Or are they doing something?
The Hague? - Topeka State Journal.
Germans will now begin to take the American occupation seriously. Pershing has cut down on their supply of beer.

The following story of a Wellesley Junior would tend to show that the sweet unreasonableness of the feminine mind is not wholly done away with by higher education.
This junior filled a prescription for a tonic sometime during the spring semester. The medicine came in dainty little pills of a delicate apple-green shade. When the first supply was exhausted the young lady tripee back to the druggist and, taking out the last dose, which she had carefully rolled up in tissue paper, held it out to the astonished clerk and said, sweetly, "Will you please match this pill?"—Harper's.

One morning, however, the mistress wished to interview the cook, who had been engaged only the day before.
"What is your name?" inquired the lady.

Paul Flagg Writes Kansan of Welcome in Alsace
Was With Americans Who Relieved French After Cap-ture of Alsace
A letter received by "Dad" Westfall, pressman of the Daily Kansan, from Paul Flagg, a former member of the Kansan Board, gives some idea of the welcome afforded the American soldiers by the French. The letter is written from Chatillon Sur Seine and follows in part:
"This is a historic old town of twenty thousand. The only remains of a castle built in 808 and destroyed in 1619 is a tower about 60 feet high. Tunnels run for 6 miles in several directions, the chateau surrounded by Joffre he directed the First Battle of the Marne lies just south of town. It is a beautiful building set in a wooded and erasery tract of 15 acres.
"I spent 3 months, June, July, and August, at the front in Alasce with my division in the Vosges mountains. My actual time in the trenches was 12 days, from August 18 till August 30.
"Alsace is a most beautiful country.
Tall mountains with narrow valleys
and pine trees galoreh. The welcome
accorded us in Alsace was touching.
If you remember, Alsace was German
territory before the war and in 1915
was half retaken from the Germans
by the French, who believed they
believed the tired French troops,
and pine trees galoreh. The welcome
we had."
Mr. Flagg does not expect to be home before summer.

selling Liberty Bonds Is Short Changing U.S.
Treasury Department Warns Against Skinners Who Try to Buy War Securities
To the Daily Kansan:
This letter is not a request for publicity for the Fifth Liberty Loan, although there will be a Fifth Loan and we are sure some of your valuable assets are under loan balances, unselfishly lent to the Liberty Loan Committee when it is needed.
this advertising has been minimized in many cities until now it is confined in a large measure to the classified columns of newspapers. But it is still doing a considerable harm to the government, and this organization asks that you, in the direction of co-operation with your government which must float a Fifth Loan and therefore must keep the government bond market stable, refrain from carrying any advertising designed to induce holders of Liberty Bonds to part with their bonds.
Many unscrupulous bond brokers and stock salesmen are doing their government a material injury in some cases. They also advertising to buy Liberty Bonds.
Should owners of Liberty Bonds
feel compelled to sell their securities the logical method of selling is through their banker who will be able to obtain a far better price for them than the pawnbroker, or the man who prizes to buy Liberty, Bonis, will pay.
The war bills must be fully pain and it requires another loan to do it. We are interested, and we believe you are interested also, in the success of the Fifth Loan. There is a sedition act which takes care of the unscrupulous dealer who entices a bond owner to sell hisLIBerty Bond at a loss by the amount he has paid and worth par. But in handling the advertiser who is not actually heard to make this statement there seems to be no penalty.
As a protection to your readers, to your community and to the Treasury Department through its Liberty Loan Committees, national, direct and local, we appeal to you to decline to supply publicity to the man who is hampering the government financing in inducing bond owners to sell their government securities.

Washburn Basketeers May Play K. U. Five In Gymnasium Fridav
Coach Hamilton Trying to Ar range Substitute Game With Topekans
Fill Place of Washington U.
Piker School Fails to Fill Their Scheduled Date With University
Kansas basket ball followers may have their first chance Friday night to see the Jayhawks in action, as Coach W. O. Hamilton is trying to arrange for a game between his men and the Washburn College five of Topoka. The Washburn quintet is one of the fastest in the Kansas State Conference. It held the Kansas Agnies to a 36-20 score about two weeks ago and defeated the Haskell Indians last week.
If the game is arranged, it will be played in Robinson Gymnasium at 7:30 o'clock, the usual time set for all the games on the home floor this year. Coach Hamilton does not believe his team can afford to remain idle this week and as the Washington University quintet of St. Louis, which was first scheduled to play a pair of games here this week, cannot make the trip, Washburn probably will be played instead. The Washburn aggregation has one fast forward in Swede Lindell, a former Topek high school star, and three or four other letter men make up the rest of the team.
TIGERS SCHEDULED NEXT
The Missouri Valley basketball season will open here next week with two of the most important games as the Missouri Tigers are scheduled for Friday and Saturday on the home floor.
Every member of the Kansas team is in good shape after the Ames series and the men will be ready for the Tigers. The Varsity scrimmaged an hour with the freshmen last night and came out winner, although the yearling 16am was given a handicap of twenty points. The score was 48-37. The Varsity is a heavy scoring machine when working smoothly, as was shown in the first game against Ames last week, when the combination piloted up fifty points more than was scored against Ames in either of the Missouri games.
BENNETT SHOWS UP WELL
With Bunn and Mill, playing the regular forward positions and Harmus and Lonborg held in reserve, and Matthews at center, the scoring end of the team is well taken care of. Bennett proved conclusively in the Ames games, and especially in the first one, that he is not only a steady defensive player but a strong cog in the team's offensive. He scored twenty points in the first game, something very unusual for a guard, Mason, although he has not had as much experience in college basket ball as the others, is a
scraper and a cool, heady player and fits in well with the rest of the team. Bunn can be slifted to guard, if necessary, and either Lonborg or Harmes can take care of the left forward position. Lonborg scored twice from the field after he had taken Bunn's place in the second Ames game.
Banquet is Planned For K.U. Football Men
A banquet in honor of the football team will be given shortly according to W. O. Hamilton, manager of athletics. Customarily the football letters are awarded at the annual banquet, but plans for doing this have yet been made this year.
"I see no reason why the football men at the University of Kansas should not be given letters this year as in any other year. The athletes in other schools are getting letters. The K. U. athletes should be awarded letters and sweaters. I would like to see somebody on the Hill start a fund to purchase sweaters for the men," said Jay Bond, Varsity football coach.
The men will probably elect a captain at the banquet. The most likely candidate is Stem Foster who played at quarter.
K. U. and Iowa Aggies Perhaps Only Valley Schools to Play
Kansas Will Schedule Spring Baseball Games In Series of Three
The University will have a baseball team this spring and will play the games in series of three according to announcement today by W. O. Hamilton, manager of athletics. Coach Hamilton saw Clyde Williams of Ames while in that city with the basketball squad last week and scheduled two series with the Iowa Aggies, one to be played here and the other at Ames.
Kansas and Ames will probably be the only Valley schools to play baseball in their athletics until '20, when they will try to put a team in the field again. Baseball is usually a financial loser here but will be continued as long as competition appears in the Valley, according to Coach Hamilton.
"I will have charge of the baseball men and think we will have a good bunch out this year. Most of the men on Varsity last spring are in 'school and several of the best men on the first year team last season will be out for places on the University team this spring," said Jay Bond today.
The Kansas battery will find no trouble in the three game series this spring with four good twirlers on the squad. The staff is well balanced with Harms and Pierce, left handers, and Slawson and Marxen, right handers. Slawson was the only winner on the Varsity last spring and the other three twirlers were working well against the Varsity and are valuable men. Bunn will be back at his old position behind the bat. If the staff
gets in hot water, Ruble can be brought down from Rosedale for the series.
Harms or one of the other twirlers can be used at first base when not on mount duty. Cherry, last year's star first baseman, died in a training camp last fall. Isenberger who won his letter at second is in school and MacLood of the first year team is back. Both are good infelders. Stem Foster will be back at his old place at short stop. Steam is a fast man and the mainstay of the team. Lenbont will be back at third. He whips the ball over to the initial sack with a snap that saves many a base hit.
pounding out the hits in his old time form.
Weltmer who acted as captain of the team last season is back and will work in the outfield. Oyster will be back in the field. Smith, the hardest hitter on the squad last season, will be out for the team. Smith was ineligible last spring but will be back
With these men out for baseball the Ames Agrics will have an all around finished team to work against. Games may be scheduled with some of the schools of the state conference if they play baseball.

Students Express Wish To Have Convocations Held More Regularly
Meetings would increase School Spirit and Relieve Monotony
Want to Hear Rock-Chalk
Bi-Weekly Convocations Before The War Proved Big Success
"The student body this year is more like a mass of sand than a block of granite," was heard on the hill this morning. "What we need is a series of conventions of some nature to get 'the students together, I don't know when was the last time that I heard a real Rock Chalk."
That there seems to be a general desire for some sort of get-together affair is evident from a number of observations that have been heard recently.
"Why couldn't we have talks by some of the University men if outside speakers are difficult to obtain. Even some of the students, especially men who have returned from France, could give very interesting talk. The meeting need not be as long as convocations often are, and still serve the purpose of bringing the students together."
The difficulty of finding a satisfactory time has been mentioned and various suggestions have been heard. Some students say that their mornings are so busy now and the courses so important that they opey any interference with class work because of other delays which have occurred this year, but many think that the increase in school spirit, and the relief from the monotony would more than renay for the time lost.
"Maybe if the girls had been there more men would have come out, but why were there only a comparatively few at the Y.M.C.A. mixer last week? You can't expect to get student's to come all the way up the hill in the evening unless the event is of great importance."
"The same thing is true of the late afternoon," said another. "Most students are thru on the hill by at least 2:30 and they won't come back to hear a long winded speech. A morning conversation especially if the address were made shorter would be the best solution in my judgment."
"Other things are going back to a before-the-war basis, why can't we do the same with convocations," said a Senior. "The bi-weekly conversation of three years ago were about the best arrangement we have had for a long time."
"All-University convocation with some degree of regularity, and at a time when they would be largely attended, would greatly increase the athletic spirit, for a short session of yell at that time would make evenings unnecessary and would more people than the evening kind."
One freshman thinks that the university could well copy after some high-schools in this respect instead of being their ideal as the University is often considered. "When I was in high-school we always used to think of our assembly as the best get-together," she said. "We have thought of abandoning it for a minute, no matter what else happened."
Several members of the faculty said that if the students showed a real desire for something of this kind that it could probably be arranged in spite of any difficulties that might at first appear. A straw vote will be taken in their classes tomorrow by several professors to test out the demand for convocations among their students.
Forum Meeting Postponed
Because of the University convo-
cation Thursday Woman's Forum has
been postponed until Friday afternoon
at 4:30 o'clock. Prof. D. L. Patterson
will speak on "Watch the Peace Con-
ference."
John R. Mott, general secretary of the National War Work Council of the Y. M. C. A. has been made a Chevalier of the Legion of Honor. Doctor Mott said he accepted the distinction as a recognition by the French government of the work which the Y. M. C. A. had done to provide recreation and increase the morale of the war-weary French polish, and to cement the feeling of brotherhood that exists between France and the United States.
The University and War Is Gen. Wood's Subject
"The University 'and the War" will be the subject of Major General Wood's speech at convocation Thursday afternoon in Robinson Gymium at 4:30 o'clock. A telegram to Ingham, the Universityartist, was received late yesterday afternoon, from the major, announcing his tonic.
The convocation is an all-university meeting but anyone who wishes may attend.
O. Hopfer Shoots 300 To Fill Up One Section In Peace Book of 1919
UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS, WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON, JANUARY 22, 1919.
Jayhawker Snapshot Artists Takes Heavy Toll of Hill Life
Three hundred snapshots and pictures have been collected for the Snapshot section of the 1919 Jayhawker. Otto Hopfer, who has charge of the section, has taken pictures of the S. A. T. C., athletics, the popular women on the Hill, and also has some very clever surprises in the way of novelty pictures. The snapshot section pictures, but Hopfer believes this year's pictures would outdo anything taken heretofeio.
"With the rapid approach of the Popularity Election, which will be January 24, much interest is being taken in who the eight popular women at the University of Kansas will be," said Lynn Hershey, business manager of the Peace Book. "Thursday is absolutely the last day in which a "Jayhawker" can be bought, and everyone who wants a book which will be complete in the military records and achievements of K. U., together with a complete record of the college events this year, should get busy and see one of the women on the campus, or else go to the "Jayhawker" office, in the old Kansan office. Some one will be in the "Jayhawker" office all day Thursday, to give everyone an opportunity to subscribe for this year's annual," said Mr. Hershey.
Marvin Harms, editor of the book, said that the S. A. T. C. section would be one of the features of the Jayhawker with nearly 500 individual pictures of men and officers, group pictures of the companies, and snappy cartoons and pictures of doings about the barracks.
"This feature of the Jayhawker can never be reproduced," said Mr. Harms, "and all students who were interested in the military events of university of Kansas should not fail to secure a copy of the 1918 Annual."
Lieut. Frank J. Fischer Killed in France Nov.
Former University Man Recommended for Posthumorous Award of Medal of Honor
Lieut. Frank J. Fisher, of Kansas City, who was a student at the University for two years in 1914 and 1916, was killed in action in France November 4, according to word recently received by his parents Mr. and Mrs. William Fisher from Lieutenant Fisher's company commander.
Lieutenant Fisher was commissioned at the first Officers' Training School at Camp Funston and left there May 21, 1918 for France. He was attached to the 355th Infantry of the 89th Division.
Lieutenant Fisher was killed in the battle of Stenny Gap and has been recommended by his major for a posthumous award of the Medal of Honor, the highest award that the government can offer for bravery in action. It was while they were closing on on Stenny Gap which would ent the railroad giving supplies to Germany, he helped disorganize that Lieutenant Fisher did his valiant work. He reorganized the men about him and led an attack into the woods. He was killed as he shouted to his men to follow.
When he was at the University, Lieutenant Fisher was a student in the College and was a member of the Alpha Tau Omega fraternity.
An old fashioned garden with flowers like our grandmothers used to have in their gardens is the new feature at the K. S. A. C. green house.
Trees For Hero Grove Are To Be Discussed At Botanists' Meeting
Best Varieties for Planting As
Memorials Will Be
Determined
At a meeting of the Botany Club, to be held at the home of Prof. W. C. Stevens at 7:30 o'clock tonight, Prof. W. L. Eikbenriller will talk on "Arbor Day in the Schools." The members of the club will discuss the trees that are adapted to this part of Kansas and will decide which varieties they think would be best to plant in the University Hero Grove. A lantern will be used to illustrate the qualities and characteristics of various trees of propagating, transplanting and caring for them.
The Botany Club recently started a movement to plant a tree in a University Hero Grove in memory of the ninety-three K. U. men and two K. U. women who died in the Natio's service during the war.
The Botany Club is classifying the students, whose memory is to be honored, as to their classes or the year in which they were graduated. The members of the classes to which each student belongs will be asked to give toward buying the trees.
The site of the grove will be determined by a landscape architect. Some of the possible places that have been considered for the grove are, just west of the Administration Building, to complete the frame that has been started by Marvin Grove; or continuation of Marvin Grove toward the back of the detection to the base of the ravine there; and along some part of the south slope of the Hill, preferably near the engineering building.
Werrenrath's Program
Pleases Large Audience
Kipling's Ballads and Old English Songs Favorites
The concert given by Reinald Werrenrath, baritone from the Metropolitan Opera company of New York, in Fraser Hall last night was attended by a large and appreciative audience. His programme contained Italian and French opera selections, a collection of Chinese Mother Goose Rhymes, a collection of Old English and Old Irish songs, and a group of songs inspired by Irish O'Connor's "Fuzzy-Wuzzy." One encore especially, "Drink To Me Only With Thine Eyes," received the audience's hearty applause.
The Jayhawker Board will meet Friday afternoon at 4:30 o'clock in the old Kansan office. The Thursday convocation necessitates changing the date of the meeting from Thursday to Friday. The Jayhawker picture will be taken at Squire's at 12:45 p.m. b. Be prompt.
Earline Allen announces her with drawn from the popularity contest
At the close of the programme Mr. Werrenrath returned at the request of Dean Butler to sing Kippling's dramatic "Danny Dever." Many other selections were requested but could not be rendered because of interfering with the continuity of the programme.
All Kappa Phi members of the Y. requested to meet at Squires' Studio, Friday, January 24, at 12:30 c'clock, for their picture taken for the Jayhawker.
The class in "Faiths of Mankind" will be held at Dr. Braden's home Wednesday evening at 6 o'clock Everybody interested in the subject of comparative religions is cordially invited to attend this class.
The Chinese Mother Goose Rhymes are a genuine translation made by an American professor at Peking University and much enjoyed by the audience.
Owls will meet Wednesday night at 8 o'clock on the Alma Nu House. All newly elected members are urged to attend for initiation.
The University Women's Association will give a tea tomorrow afternoon at 3 o'clock at the home of Mrs. Frank Strong.

Kansas and Missouri To Debate Universal Military Training
The question for the annual Missouri-Kansas inter-college debate was decided upon at a meeting of the University Debating Council, which has charge of debating schedules. The question reads:
Forensic Contest to Take Place Last of March or Early In April
"Resolved, That compulsory universal military training should be adopted in the United States."
NUMBER 62
The subject waives all references to any possible action by the peace conference. The question will be submitted to the University of Missouri at once, and they will have their choice of the negative or affirmative side. They left the choosing of the question to the University of Kansas entirely. "The exact date of the debate has not been decided upon but it will be the last of March or the first of April," says Henry Shinn. Kansas
"The exact date of the debate has not been decided upon but it will be the last of March or the first of April," says Henry Shinn. Kansas will make the trip to Missouri for the debate.
Mr. Shim asks that all men and women who would like to try out for this debate, should see him before the end of this week, and hand in their names. The question is to be debated before the University Debating Club several times in the near future, and the debating coach suggests that all people interested should come, as they will profit by it.
Try-outs for the debating squad probably will be Thursday of next week. Mr. Shinn said this morning. The person trying out will deliver an oral discussion of any one point he may pick out on either side of the question. Speakers may discuss the subject for 7 minutes. Judges will be the faculty members of the University Debating Council. Six probably will be chosen for the squad, from which a team of three will be chosen.
Two "Best Engineers"
From Class '18 Return
Men Sent to Answer Call of War Department Are

The two best electrical engineers of the '18 class have returned from the war unscathed. One of them, Clarence Lynn, reached France and was stationed at Brest, Bordeaux, and Paris, but he had to return to Gish, was in New York City with orders to sail when the war was interrupted.
These two men were sent out in response to a call from the war department for the two best men in each school. They were trained for the air-mir air-incision branch of the air force from recent events did credit to their Alma Mater.
Lynn will enroll in the School of Engineering to finish his work. Gish is now on his way to Denver to take a position with the Dougherty Electrical Interests. Practically all of last year's graduating class from the K. U. department were in the service and received commissions.
Honor System to be Discussed
The Men's Student Council will meet tonight at 7 o'clock in Room 113, Fraser, instead of at the Acacia house; change having been made on account of Council members on the basketball squad. Important business concerning a men's mass meeting on the honor system and the council elections will be discussed.

Spreading Rails Delay K.U. Cars One Hour
Street car traffic was tied up on the K. U. loop an hour this morning as a result of the rails spreading beneath one of the cars as it rounded the curve back of the Chemistry Building at 8:35 o'clock. No damage was done except loss of time and cost of repairs to the Street Railway Company.
Plain Tales From the Hill
Shrieks Pierce Night Air
One man died twelve times in front of one of the sorority houses about eleven o'clock last night
He greaned, he sighed, he begged that they 'let him alone', and then he died again, each time a little more horrible death. At least fifty shots were fired but though every one seemed to hit him the proverbial cat had nothing on him for the number of deaths he could die.
No one knows exactly the idea of the slaughter but if it was intended to awake the sympathy of the sisters, it failed entirely, for the only emotion that they felt was that of anger at being disturbed from their slumers. They were longing for one of the bullets to take effect and really stop his agony.
Little children must have their fun, and the University seems to be running a kindergarten department along with people for people with a developed mind.
Gawsh, for once in their lives the Betas are being envied by the other fraternities and organizations on the Hill. Just think how much money they will save, on account of being penalized for dancing over time.
One of the students in the History of American Journalism failed to appear in class yesterday and when asked why she cut, she explained that she had sent practically all of her clothes home to be laundered and they did not get back in time for her to make the class.
The men who come back to the University of Kansas dolled up in their uniforms and are not recognized by their former friends and associates have nothing on the senior women who have had to put on glasses since the men have gone to war and are not recognized by the heroes when they appear on the campus.
Rules are rules and must be obeyed. This is the standing law and order at the Kappa house, and all the freshmen have been made acquainted with it. Two of freshmen of the sisterhood of the golden key, had library dates the other night. As they started to leave they were faced by two stern looking upperclassman and student council members.
Perhaps from experience or perhaps not, any way the freshmen made their dates take them straight home in order to be there prepared for an attack from the upperclassmen. They had no more than reached the door when they heard the telephone bell ringing and he was there to pick them up as perclassmen who had called to see if the two erring freshmen had gone home.
Debating Society Chose Four Members Last Night
The regular meeting of the Debating Society was held Tuesday night in Green Hall. Four students were elected to the University Debating Council. They are: Ferdinand Stuewe, Dwight L. Gregory, Lewis Severson, and Lucile Hovey. Other members of the Council are Robert Albach and Edwin Price from the Delta Sigma Rho fraternity and Professors Arthur MacMurray, Henry P Shinn, H. W. Humble, R. D. O'Leary, G. H. Derry, and W. M. Duffus, of the faculty.
A practice debate was presented at the meeting by members of the society, George E. Strong, Lucile Hovey, H. Evans, and Hamilton R. Fulton.
Musical Points
A million talking machine needles for the American M. Y. C. A. in England make a rather pointed answer to the question as to whether the enlisted man enjoys the musical equipment furnished by the Red Triangle.
The Y. W. C. A. office will be open from 12:30 to 1:00 o'clock, Monday, Thursday and Friday. All workers on the finance teams are requested to bring in their cards at that time.
University Will Help Students Make Choice Of Their Life Work
Senate Appoints Committee To Make Study of Problem
War Experience is Cited
Alumnae Association Gathers Material of Value In Deciding Course
Professor A. T. Walker, of the department of ancient languages was chosen chairman. Others of the committee are Dr. Albert Corbin, Dean Oli Templin, W. M. Duffus, Dean F. J. Kelly, W. S. Hunte, M. C. Elmer, L. N. Plint, C. C. Williams and Chancellor Frank Strong.
The University Senate at its meeting Monday evening appointed a committee to give advice to students along vocational lines.
"The purpose of the committee is to help students, both men and women to find the profession or business in which you are most effectively," said Professor Walker.
"The committee has not held g meeting therefore no detailed plans can be given out," he added. "But it is clear that the first business will be to collect facts about all vocations suitable to university-trained students. These facts will be accessible to the students."
"This is a new thing for the University of Kansas and practically for all Universities. However, Harvard nested such work last year," he said.
One member of the committee pointed out that the advisory body does not want to be considered an emblematic example and the pose would be to give information.
"We realize that the men of the American Army have been placed in the positions to which they were adapted," said Professor Walker. "Much of this placing of the men was determined to some extent by the men's intellectual qualifications that fitted them for various lines.
"The committee here at the University of Kansas does not say that it will be able to determine the ability of the man or woman to enter certain vocations, but it does intend to be of practical value if giving information."
ALUMNAE START WORK
A very practical start was given to the movement of giving vocational help by the local chapter of the Associated Collegiate Alumnae. This organization was started here ten years ago and its main purpose has been to give vocational help to women. Selected lecturers from out of town and from Lawrence were obtained to talk to the students. Money was raised by giving plays. Miss Alice Winston of the department of English was the chairman of the committee. The present officers are Mrs. Frank Daines, Mrs. McKnown, and Miss Hearty Brown.
This fall Dr. Alberta Corbin gave an impetus to the movement by sending out questionaires to the alumnae who were engaged in non-teaching occupations. The questions asked were:
What was your Major?
What was your Minor?
What is your present occupation?
Did you begin this work at once on leaving college?
If not, what work did you do?
How did you get into the present work?
Have you had special training for your present occupation?
l so, what was the cost?
QUALIFICATIONS ARE LISTED
What college courses would you suggest as a preparation for this work?
What course not now a part of the college curriculum would be useful in your study?
How - does remuneration compare with the salaries of teachers?
What do you consider essential qualifications for this kind of work?
Is the number of openings in this work increasing?
How can a graduate get into such work?
orbitin received the following letters:

PROFESSORS NOT TO SELL SERVICES?
Kansas college professors may possibly lose some of their incomes if a bill introduced in the state legislature, Monday, is passed. However, it is probable that the proposed act will meet with common disapproval over the state.
The part of the bill which affects state institutions is the section prohibiting professors and instructors in state schools from accepting fees for any work they do except the regular salary paid for their specific services. If any such fees are collected they shall go into the state treasury instead of the professor's pocket.
Although the bill provides for the readjustment of salaries each year by the legislature or the head of the institution and, although it promises higher salaries for employees of the state, still it is fallacious and extremely impracticable.
If such a policy were put into operation it would be as binding as a trade union and would limit the instructor in his activity outside of school hours. The exhaustive research work which the average professor now does as part of his state work would not be sufficient to satisfy the demands of an exacting public. He must needs turn over the proceeds of books written at home; he would likewise be expected to empty his Saturday night pay envelope, earned during vacation, into the coffers of the state. The liberty given any bookkeeper or stenographer who works during the evenings at home in order to increase a modest salary would be denied the professor.
As things now stand, he lectures freely at high schools and commercial clubs, and expects only a fee sufficient to cover his railroad fare. He spends much time outside of schedule hours in helping to further the work of the state. He stops only when he comes into competition with legitimate business. Then he charges what his services are worth. Surely it would not be fair to have him contribute his services and thus cut short the incomes of those who have struggled to master a profession.
Professors who have the ability and wish to do outside intellectual work should be paid what their services can command.
Lawrence sets the pace for the larger cities. The Kansas City Star says, "Unless a better plan is found, the council may provide for one-way traffic on Main and Walnut streets." The local street-car system has had one-way traffic for years.
The Pennsylvania railroad has found that since the women have been wearing tight skirts, the average train stop is now seventeen seconds longer than when skirts were short and full; they are now considering lengthening the schedule to meet the emergency. We wonder if the Senate thought of the styles when it decided on 8:30 o'clock classes instead of those at 8 o'clock.
GOOD ROADS
The annual spring campaign for good roads cannot begin too early on the University campu. If various communities over the state should regard the University as an example of all that is progressive, and emulate its solution of the good roads problem, then practically all communication would cease.
The most remote rural community in the state does more to improve the condition of its highways than has been done to keep the campus drives in shape this winter season. Now they are dirt最 impassable.
Deep mud holes and ruts are neither necessary nor decorative. The drives on the campus have been laid out artistically, but their beauty of arrangement is lost when the surface is in its present condition.
A road must be repaired and worked on often to keep it in shape. Until the state can afford to give the University asphalt drives, the dirt roads should at least be in as respectable a condition as a country highway.
The School of Fine Arts is the only building on the Hill that has drinking water, and it isn't on the Hill.
Why isn't the department of biological science housed in the "antennae" instead of the journalists?
Kansas sent 81,000 men to war,
4,000 of whom died in the service.
Besides that the state loaned and contributed $210,000,000 to the various war funds.
BEAUTY NOT MEASURED BY FEET
Photographers who are taking group pictures for the University annual could take much more unconventional views than they do. Their opportunities in this direction are unlimited, but they never make the most of them. The photographer who is "doing" K. U. at the lunch hour this year is indeed a calloused person.
Fifty women in party dresses may be very attractive and again they may not. Not at high noon, certainly, in their last year's delapidated costumes with ungainly walking shoes below the folds of wrinkled tulle. The footwear of the group which is being taken is always remarkable for its variety and picturesqueness. The ground-gripper stands next the mud-spattered patent pump. The patient photographer shields the unwieldy footwear by focusing a kindly lens well above the top button.

LITTLE STUMBLING BLOCKS
Now it is usually little things that cause us to stumble. I do not fall over a beer barrel, but I slip over a piece of orange peel. I have never stumbled over a bale of cotton,but if one flag in the pavement-projects a third of an inch, I may be brought to grief. I can avoid the bigger thing; I am careless about the trifles. The little things cause me to stumble. "Look carefully how ye walk," recollect the importance of details. Life is made up of steps and incidents and trifles.—Dr. J. H. Jowett in Christian Herald.

THE WHY OF NAVY UNIFORMS
Many old customs and traditions have left their trace on the uniform of American sailors of the present day. The wide, flaring trousers suggest a waste of material when seen on the city street, but they are really the most practical shape for duty on shipboard. Because of the looseness they may be rolled up snugly to the knees when the sailor is holstoning the decks, and the flare also prevents them from binding at the knee when the bluejacket is taken to go aloft. The most advantage of the looseness is that, combined with the arrangement of the buttons on the side, the trousers can be easily slipped off in the water.
The thirteen buttons across the top of the trousers are supposed to represent the thirteen original states.
The black tie, prescribed by regulation for American blue jackets, was handed down from the British navy. It was worn by the sailors of this fleet in memory of Nelson after the death of Admiral Halsey, and in the three white stripes bordering the collar commemorate three great victories won by Nelson.
The bit of white undershirt showing at the neck is associated with the famous American admiral, Farragut. After his death the sail in which his body was lowered to the water was divided among his sailors, who were seated on the back across their chests. This established the custom of wearing a white dickey, which is now replaced by the portion of the undershirt—K. C. Star

Better Work Being Done
. By Students, Profs Say
Uncertainties of War Time Vanish and Training for Service Begins
As a whole, the University students are doing better work this year than they did last, according to instructors in various departments.
Some of the instructors think the war has caused most of the students to become more serious minded—that it is the fashion to be serious. Things are so much more settled this year than they were last that students are more definite in determining what work they will carry, and work harder to get what they can out of their courses. It was almost impossible last year to know what one would have to do from one week to the next, a condition especially true among the men students, and they did not take as much effort as we did. This year professors say everyone seems to understand that from now on positions will be so few that it will be the best man who will get the best job and it is up to them to prepare themselves to be one of the "fittest."
Frats and Sororities Give More to Armenian
Additional contributions are being made to the Douglas County Jewish-Armenian relief fund by the members of university fraternities and sororites. Cash contributions of more than $50 have already been turned in, and more subscriptions have been promised.
Whenever a University student asks what he should give to the fund,
he is told 51 cents will provide food for three days for a starving refugee of the Near East, and the resulting contribution is 51 cents—if not a dollar.
Fraternity contributions not yet acknowledged are: Gamma Pi Beta,
$15.40; Alpha Omicron Pi, $10.00;

Tobacco Funds not Conspiracy
Gifts of Cigarettes to Soldiers Justified By Extreme Emergency, Ministers Believe
It has been alleged that the whole agitation, which caused tobacco funds to be raised and cigarettes distributed freely to men in the service, was largely the result of propaganda on the part of the tobacco companies.
Ymk E. Parker, secretary of the
YM. M. C. A., when asked his opinion
paid
"While I have never been in favor of smoking cigarettes, I have always considered it a matter which could well be left over until after the war. We have several big fights on our hands, moral and otherwise, which seem to take up all our energy. The final to tobacco when these other things are settled, because it undoubtedly cuts down a man's efficiency.
"The boys themselves were perfectly willing to encourage the gift of cigarettes and raising of tobacco funds. I don't thing that there was any set propoganda on the part of the large tobacco companies, although there might have been."
While not denying the harmful effects of cigarettes, Dr. Franklin G Dill of Westminster Hall said he and his friends have been in a degree justified.
"Tobacco is a poison like opium," said Doctor Dill, "and ought to be used only under the perscription of a skilled physician. The only difference between them is that opium is quick in action; the nicotine in a cigarette is slow and accumulative in effect.
"On the other hand," Doctor Dill continued, "many boys over the training and particularly waiting for the 'zero hour' to 'go over the top' are under terrible nervous strain; so unuual and intense that if a physician had them in a hospital he would prescribe a sedative. That the cigarette helped many men to the control of 'raw nerves' may he keep true, and the gray glove away of cigarettes was justified. I wish I might speak from personal knowledge and observation but Uncle Sam didn't arrange to send me."
Doctor Dill referred to the Manual of Military Hygiene, written by Colonel Harvard, M. C., U. S. S., Ret, which says:
"From what has been said it is rational to conclude that the use of tobacco in any form by students in all educational establishments, including the Military and Naval Academies, should be absolutely prohibited. The development and strengthening of the degree of manly self-control necessary to comply with such prohibition would not be the least of the benefits conferred by such establishments."
Another Lawrence minister said that while he would not be the one to refuse a soldier cigarettes, if he desired them, he lamented the fact that cigarettes were distributed free to thousands of men who would not otherwise have formed the habit. The effect of anti-cigarette legislation and reform has been lost to a large extent, according to this minister, and he fears that a generation of cigarette smokers will be the result.
Charles E. Henry, a Y worker at the University until recently employed in Y work at Fort Leavenworth said:
"I licked one of my boys 16 years old and another 15 years old for that very thing--Cigarette smoking. I think it is a very, very bad habit. I never did approve of it and I do not now. I have never heard any complaints of the tobacco funds was due largely to the proprandia of tobacco companies."
Lieut. V. A. Hower, who is now enrolled in the University and who was an aviator over-seas for more than thirteen months, said:
"If it had not been for the gifts of cigarettes, in a large number of cases the men would not have gotten any of them at all.
"Tobacco could be purchased at Y canteens and later could be obtained from the quartermaster's department of the army. But usually cigarettes were given away by the Y. M. G. A., Red Cross, Knights of Columbus and
other agencies at times and places where the men would not otherwise have been supplied. For instance, cigarettes were distributed at stations when troops went through, at hospitals where the men were nearly ill or dead, and in prison trenches when it was impossible to do more than hand them out.
"Undoubtedly it was justified," continued Lieutenant Hower. "It was no time to quibble. If the fighting man desired cigarettes, they were given to him. If he desired chewing gum, he was given the chewing gum. So far as I know, the tobacco company is in business business firm would have done under the circumstances to encourage the sale of its product."

Track Men in Training for Coming Meets of Season
Date Not set for Annual K.U.— M. U. Meet in Convention Hall
The University track men are working hard in preparation for the coming meets of the season. Kansas will have an indoor meet with Missouri at Convention Hall in Kansas City but the date has not been determined according to Manager W. O. Hamilton.
Dorman O'Leary, one of the best quarter milers in the Valley, says he will not be out for track, this spring and has not worked out with the men since his return to Lawrence some time ago. Murphy is working with the men and getting into condition. He may enter the KC 40 at Staten Island, unattended. Murphy will get up an unattached relay team if possible.
"I will enrol in the University and start to school if Welch gets out of the army and returns in time for track. I would then organize a relay team with Haddock, Welch, O'Leary and myself. I have taken courses at the university but two years and have another year of competition," said Murphy,

Y to Improve Idle Time
Yours very cordially,
Wherever there are as many as 500 reasonably stationary soldiers, sailors and marines at base camps, ports, or with the army of occupation, there be educational courses given by the Y. M. C. A. to those who are to be moved in a few weeks there will be short courses but there will be something to interest every one. Boredom and inactivity are the greatest trials of the soldiers now, and the Y. M. C. A. will offer a counteractive force as attractive as it will be useful.
One of my good friends said to me the other day, when I had been talking about what might happen in the years just ahead of us, "Sanderson, you talk like the advance agent of a cyclone." I jocelyn repeated the remark to a friend who has gone to live for a year in the heart of the East Side, New York, just to be at the center of the unrest in America. Said he, "The cyclone is already here." Is your storm-cellar in good repair?
Students Neglects to Pay War Work Fund Pledge
There is considerable money yet unpaid from the War Work Fund pledges. G. O. Foster is the treasurer and all payments should be given to him at once. If there are any men who were members of the S. A. T. C. who for some reason at this time are unable to pay their pledges or even part of it, they should see Frank Parker, Secretary of the Y. M. C. A. He will make any adjustments necessary. As it is now the pledges are binding obligations and should be looked after as soon as possible.

University Athletics Pays Its Own Way Says Coach Hamilton
Will Take Many Years To Build Concrete Grand Stand From Profits
Other States Aid Schools
NUMBER 63.
All Sports Equipment at K. U Bought By Athletic Association
Athletes pay for itself at the University of Kansas according to W. O. Hamilton, manager of K. U. athletics, but it would take many years before Kansas would be able to build a concrete grandstand with four-sided bleachers from the profits. Football is a good money maker and the other types of sporting events nearly pay for themselves.
"Kansas will never be able to build a concrete bleacher until some outside person makes an appropriation large enough to pay for the building and work as the state legislature will never come across for the amount needed. We are saving our funds towards that end but it will take a long time to reach the goal at the rate we are going. Athletics lost here this year for the first time in years," said Mr. Hamilton.
Most of the schools in the Missouri Valley receive appropriations from their respective states for equipment and other athletic expenses but the Kansas state legislature does not even pay for the coaches here, according to a report issued by K. U. athletes is paid for from the funds of the Athletic Association, and even the ground keepers' wages come from the athletic fund.
The Athletic Association has $10,000 in the athletic fund that may be used toward building a concrete stand on McCook field. The proposition can not be considered by the Athletic Association until a way is provided to secure the additional funds needed.

Rooming House Plans
District Chairmen To Perfect Organization Of House Presidents
In order to aid in the organization of a woman's roaming house the council of the Women's Student Government Association will appoint at least ten junior and sophomore women as district chairmen to work with Mary Smith, chairman of the House President's Council.
The student section of Lawrence will be divided into districts and each chairman will be responsible for the organization of the houses in her section. The district chairman will meet with the house presidents and will serve as a connecting ling between them and the council.
Appointments of district chairmen will be announced Friday. "So far the organization of the houses has been satisfactory to the council," Mary Smith said this morning, "But several of the larger houses have failed to send a representative to the meetings. A plan must be worked out also to provide an organization for the scattered students who are not required to send representatives to the House President's Council."
"The three organizations, the student council, the district chairman, and the House Presidents' Council, will work for a closer interest among women students and for more efficient student government."
Cercle Français Hears Talk on American Army
"What do you think of the Americans?" was the introduction to a talk given by Miss Stanton at the Cercle Frances Wednesday afternoon. "The polis say that is the first thing that Sammy asks when he lands in France. The problem is that it is American concept, but we know that it is merely Yankee curiosity."
The American soldier from the viewpoint of the French officers and leaders was discussed fully by Miss Stanton and was summarized in the words of Marshal Foch to the American soldiers after the battle of Chateau Thierry. He called the Americans admiral soldiers, almost to brave.

Most Popular Woman Will Be Elected Friday By Jayhawker Buyers
Polls Will Open at Nine o'Clock In Basement Of Fraser Hall
The polls for the Popliamity Contest will open promptly at 9 o'clock Friday in the basement of Fraser Hall, according to an announcement made this morning by Marvin Harms, editor-in-chief of the 1919 Jayhawker. The election will be run as any class election. Receipts for subscriptions to the Jayhawaker will entitle the holders to be admitted to the polls.
Only the students who have bought a Jayhawker or who have made a payment on the book will be entitled to cast votes for one of the fourteen candidates whose names will appear on the ballot. The number of votes each voter is allowed to cast will depend upon the amount he has paid on his Jayhawker. A payment of $2.50 entitles the holder of the receipt to cast 250 votes, while the payment of $5.00, the full price of the book, entitles the holder of the receipt to cast 500 votes.
As soon as the voter is admitted to the polls his receipt is stamped in order to avoid all possibility of a receipt being used more than once. Every purchaser must cast his own votes, according to the managers of the contest. It will be impossible for the receipts to be transferred.
The members of the Men's Student Council, two members of the Woman's Student Government Association, one faculty member, and the managers of the Jap Hawker will act as election judges. He be at the polls throughout the day.
"There will be no graft whatever," said Marvin Harms, this morning, "in the way the Popularity Contest will be run tomorrow.
"The plans of the election have been so arranged as to do away with all the old time graft and unfairness that always accompanied the Beauty Contests in former years. In the election this year each voter decides for whom he cast his votes. There will be no buying or transferring of votes this year."
The salesmen for the Jayhawker have been out on the campus and in every building, every day this week, and have sold several hundred books. The sales close at 6 o'clock tonight and none will be sold after that time.
The names of the fourteen candidates whose names will appear on the ballot.
By the rules of the Jayhawner Popularity contest, no contestant could withdraw her name. Some of the young women nominated did not wish to run, but there was no way to get their names "scratched" off the ballot. When the Popularity Contest comes off the names of five women who have personally withdrawn will appear in spite of their withdrawals. Those who have withdrawn entirely and are not running, are Misses Pauline Puls, Earline Allen, Elsie Grant, Volmia Derrington and Kathleen Davis.

Contracts For Rooms Are Kept By Students Says Women's Advise
Few Disregard Them After Pledging Fraternity and Sorority
Students recognize it is a matter of honor to live up to the terms of agreement with rooming house keepers, even they pledge to a fraternity or security and leave their rooms during the quarter, said Dr. Alberta Corbin, adviser of women, today.
The University provides an official lease for rental of rooms, which is used by a majority of lodging houses.
"The purpose of the lease is to benefit the students," said Doctor Corbin, "and it does so in two ways. First, it improves conditions in rooming houses, and second, it gives permanency to the renting of rooms and offices. The higher price of the tenancy is to the advantage of everyone concerned and it tends to make the conditions of school life here more favorable.
The student agrees to pay the monthly rental in advance; to use the room in a curvilinear manner; to preserve good order at all times; to use no other parts of the house without curtains; to off the lights whenever leaving room unoccupied; and to keep register closed when window is open.
The lease stipulates that the landlady is to care for rooms daily; to provide hot water in lavatory and for baths at least twice a week; to furnish light equivalent to 40-watt; to keep room at 70 degrees bareheit when occupied; and to furnish a parcel of furniture at least once a day, on Sunday and Sunday nights and on nights preceding holidays declared by the University, until 11 o'clock.
"Students are bound by the lease and they recognize that it is a matter of honor to live up to the terms. The landladdies are also obligated by the lease to do more for the students than they perhaps otherwise would."
"If rooming house conditions are unsatisfactory," continued Doctor Corbin. "the student has the right of appeal to the University roaming house and the house annuled. In a number of cases this has been done in the past."
"The student is held for the monthly rental for the length of time for which the room is leased. The University recommends that rooms be rented for not longer than a semester at a time, or a quarter under the present division of the school year."
Sigma Tau, honorary engineering fraternity, will award a medal in a few days to the member of the class of '21 in the fraternity who has made the best record during the past year. The contest will be decided on a basis of the following three points: First, scholarship; second, social achievements; and third, practical work done. This is the first year that a medal has been awarded. One will be given every year hereafter.

Students May Gather In Gym Friday Nights
"Robinson Gymnasium will be open from top floor to basement for general student recreation every Friday night from 8 until 10:30 o'clock, beginning this Friday night," said Doctor Goetz today. "Many students are not getting acquainted on the Hill this year, and many would enjoy a place where they could drop in for an hour of any kind of play they like. Every part of the gymnasium will be free of charge, including the swimming pool and basket ball courts. Provision will be made for indoor games of all kinds."
After the game Friday night the building will be thrown open for the first time. This is for everybody on the Hill.

Will Probably Wreck
All S.A.T.C. Barracks
Government Will Pay Difference Between Cost and Salvage Value
All army barracks at the University erected for the use of the S.A.T.C. will probably be wrecked and salvaged for their value as old lumber, according to Chancellor Frank Strong, who returned from Topeka after a conference with James Kimball, of the Board of Administration. The money received by the university from the barracks will be used as a partial reimbursement to the University for expenditures on the Students Army Training Corps.
The chancellor also conferred with E. K. Hall, national business manager of the S. A. T. C. The question of what to do with the barracks built for the use of the students at the University of Kansas has been under consideration for some time. At first it was thought that several of the buildings might be used for general purposes in connection with the University.
In such case they would be of much more value than if wrecked and salvaged, it is held. The erection of the barracks was paid for by the University and the government will reimburse the institution for the cost of the buildings after their value as salvage has been deducted.

Men's Student Council To Ask Marked Changes In Senate Dance Rules
Would Distinguish Between All-University Parties And Varsity Dances
Will Concult Honor System
Mass Meeting of Men Called For January 28 By President
Marked changes in the rules governing student dances will be asked by the Men's Student Council in a petition to the University Senate, it was decided at a meeting Wednesday night. It was said the council would ask the Senate to distinguish between a big all-university party, such as the Hop or the Prom, and an ordinary Varsity dance. The Men's Student Council also questioned the right of the council of the Woman's Student Government Association to full control of the varsity dances this year. Previous to this year the council managed the dances.
All successful candidates in the class elections held last Thursday were declared elected because no protests were made.
TO CONSIDER HONOR SYSTEM
The honor system, which has been discussed by the University and the W. S. G. A. was brought up, and after considerable discussion Horschel Washington, president, was given the power to call a mass meeting of the University of Kansas, to be held Tuesday, January 28. At this meeting, all men will be given an opportunity to express their ideas on the honor system, as it has been brought before the University.
Mr. Washington said "All men of the University are urged to attend this meeting. It is of vital interest to every man whether the honor system shall be established in our University. Any man who does not attend will be considered as against the honor system. In this way, we will be able to judge how much interest the men really have in the new idea." A committee was also appointed by the president to investigate the point system as it has been adopted by the W. S. G. A. This committee will confer with the W. S. G. A. in an effort to secure a uniform system throughout K. U. However, the members of the Council agreed that because of the abnormal conditions, and the decrease of the number of men in the University this year, leniency would be the course taken.
FIVE MEMBERS FOR COUNCIL.
Member will be added to the Men's Student Council next week.
Meetings of the men in the various schools of the city are called on Thursday, January 30, for the purpose of nominating candidates for the Council. Twice as many men will be nominated and then the members of the Council will elect from these. Four men will be nominated in the college, two of whom will be elected by the Council; four men will be nominated in the School of Engineering and two will be elected; and two men will be nominated in the School of Pharmacy, one of whom will be elected. The return of "Bus" Jenson to school fills the vacancy in the membership from the School of Law, and no election will be held there.
Pay Checks Come Late To Thirty Sailor Students
The remaining thirty sailors attending the University of Kansas from the Great Lakes received their pay, January 17.
All of the boys who left the Great Lakes to attend the various colleges were paid in full before leaving. There were 253 sailors enrolled in the University of Kansas and all of those with the exception of thirty received their checks from the Government this fall.
The reason for this neglect was that some person at the Lakes had lost the insurance papers that the boys had taken out last spring, at the time of their enlistment. The authorities were in doubt as to whether the insurance fee should be taken out of their pay this fall.
The Y. W. C. A. office will be open from 12:30 to 1 p.m. Thursday and Friday. All women who have been working on the "Finance Teams" have been requested to return their pledge cards at that time.

AN EXCELLENT PLAN
At a recent meeting the University Senate inaugurated a plan to help students find the professions or lines of business in which they can work most efficiently. A committee was appointed to advise students concerning vocational matters. This is the most constructive and progressive plan to be adopted by the University Senate in years. When the work of the committee is organized, it will be an effective factor in helping men and women of this institution find their real places in business and in the professions.
Although Harvard University started a similar plan last year, it is practically a new departure for a university to maintain a committee on vocational guidance for its students and graduates. The first work of the committee here will be to gather information about all the vocations suitable to college-trained men and women. This information will then be given to students who apply for advice.
The fact that the United States Army employed psychologists to determine the general intellectual qualifications that fit men for various lines of work influenced the Senate to start the machinery for a vocational guidance program. The committee does not say that it will be able to determine the ability of students who wish to enter certain vocations, but it can be of practical value by giving out information.
Surely no more practical thing could be done for society in general than to adapt people to the occupations for which they are best suited. Vocational misfits are a social loss. Up to the present time our school system seems to have practically ignored the question of putting the right person in the right place, thus increasing industrial efficiency.
Members of the University Senate proved themselves to be progressive educators when they appointed a committee to aid students vocationaly.
Thirty-three and one-third per cent of the students in a class in American Government failed to pass the course last quarter. In other studies these students showed average intelligence. Some of them were students of an A and B standard in other subjects. Perhaps they did not apply themselves properly, but in this instance is there not some reflection on the manner in which the courses was presented?
POOR BUSINESS
There has been so much indefinite-
ness, delay and uncertainty about
the plans for the K. U. annual this
year that students are losing their
usual interest in its publication.
A great deal of this delay can be
attributed, of course, to the fact that
its publishers have only recently been
released from military service,
and have had no opportunity to get their
work well organized.
No one cares to buy a Jayhawker or to cast his votes in the popularity contest, however, when he has no definite information about these matters. And a student cannot be blamed for not turning in his senior picture when he is never able to get into communication with the managers.
The Jayhawker this year will excel former publications and will be unique, because it will record a wartime K. U. But its managers must employ business-like methods and have regular office hours if they intend to be supported by all the students.
The University of Kansas acquires new honors each day. Douglas Fairbanks rose graciously in the subway, smiled his best, and gave his seat to a member of the Class of '18 the other day.
KEEP GRADES UP-TO-DATE
When students go to the Registrar's office to get their grades, they discover that many professors and instructors have not yet turned in their grades for last semester, or even las year.
Punctuality in handing in themes, in getting to class, and in preparing class work has been drilled into the student's mind ever since he first entered the University. He has had his grades cut down for late work, and in some courses has even been flunked for not getting his work in on time. In spite of this we hear a lot about the care-free student who cannot be held responsible for getting anything done on time. He probably deserves to be criticized for his negligence, but what of the care-free professor who can never get his quizzes handed back or his grades made out the same year? He is as much a detritum to the machinery of the University as the easy going student.
Members of the Money and Credit course will probably derive more work and credit from it than mercenary recompense. And some of them may not get much credit.
THE DEMOBILIZATION PERIOD
A complete system has been worked out by the Army Educational Commission of the Y. M. C. A., with the approval of General Pershing and the active support of President Wilson and the Secretary of War, where by every soldier who may be kept in Europe during the demobilization period is to be given an opportunity to improve his education under Arm control, whether he has only the rudiments of education, none at all or whether he is a college senior and now holds a commission. The plan was formulated while the routine of war absorbed the Army's main energies but even then plans were made t widen it so that the army during the demobilization period may have the advantage of the higher educations systems of the English and French universities. The plan provided that while the army is waiting on peace negotiations, officers and enlisted me shall be given leaves of absence from their units to attend such classic institutions as those at Oxford, Cambridge, Edinburgh, and at the Sorbonne and the Universities of Paris and Bordeaux in France. The students will receive credits in American universities for courses followed in Europe While the army is demobilizing awaiting transportation to the United States, the post schools will afford courses in English literature, modern history, civics, bookkeeping, accountancy, stenography, elementary biology, and other subjects. Specia schools will provide education courses in electric wiring and repai work, salesmanship, practical agriculture, carpentry, cadrery, tailoring, tinsmithing, cooking, etc.-Pictorial Review.

"Have you ever tried to love your enemies?"
To The Daily Kansan;
Poor music at varsity dances is in doubt a trial and vexation of spiir but there is something to be said or the side of the student council. Many of the musicians popular with students last year and the year before have enlisted and have no immediate prospects of being discharged. People's tastes in music differ; music which has pleased one group of people this year has failed to please others. The council can only change about as much as possible and endeavor to please some of the people some of the time. It is not possible to bring in an expensive out-of-own orchestra every week and at the same time keep the pride of varsity dances down to a personal level. Performance situations Circumstances also have some effect. Snow storms and late trains aren't under human control. W. S. G. A.

This Column is Open to all students of the University
To The Daily Kansan:
A statement appeared in the Daily Kansan a few days ago saying that the council of the Women's Student Government Association had made the ruling was passed by the University College of Oklahoma and the ruling was passed by the University Senate and the student council has no connection with it.
The ruling fixing the closing hour of all dances at 12 o'clock is also a senate ruling, made last spring. The W. S. G. A. and the adviser of women do not have jurisdiction over violations of that ruling. All rulings governing student parties and dances are subject to the rules and jurisdiction of the disciplinary committee. The W. S. G. A. works for the interests of the women of the University and has many other interests besides disciplinary powers. M. S.
THE FATAL DATE
Whenever the thirteenth of the month falls on a Friday the strain is sure to be too much for some delicate brains. Not long ago some so-called "radicals" in *New York* decided to make a Friday the Thirteenth "People's Day, and issued a proclamation abolishing a number of institutions that (to our amazement) still seem to be going on. Among the matters abolished by Ellis O. Jones (who made his first reputation as a humorist) and his soviet were all debts, leases, contracts, and statutes; all public offices were declared vacant: all indictments quashed; all vacant land (to say nothing of vacant skulls) were to revert to the people.
This reminded us of something, we didn't just know what. Now we have found it, in the thirty-eight chapter of the immortal "Pickwick." When Mr. Sam Weller was entertained at a "swarry" by the footman of Bath, some one proposed the health of the indies. "Hear, hear!" cried Sam. "The young missises!" This word was objected to by the footman as being unparliamentary. "We don't recognize such distinctions here!"
We should be sorry to believe that so able a humorist as Ellis O. Jones recognizes no distinction between genuine industrial reform and simple idiocy. If so, instead of parading with crape for "dead Liberty," he should wear the scarf where he used to keep his sense of humor. And, as far as social reform is concerned, we must remember the words of a great humorist, Don Marquis: "An idea is not always blame for the people who believe in it."
RICHES OF THE GOLD CHEVROUT
He wore the only gold service chevron the little town had seen. This fact won him a pleasing distinction right away. Folks he had known for years seemed a little awed in his presence. The greetings partook of features that hitherto had been reserved only for the rare occasions when great men visited the place. A delightful feeling of prominence, of merit at last recognized and rewarded, stole over him. It was great to be a returning hero, after all.
That was the first day, and early in the day, too. Somewhat later on that same day the returned veteran was called to the telephone. It was
"Really, my dear boy, you must come and talk to our Sunday School tomorrow morning," the good man told the man with the gold stripe promised.
He struggled through the talk to the Sunday School, though it left him perspiring and painfully aware of the fact that he had made an awful hash of it. Right then the principal of the high school nabbed him.
"You've just got to come up and talk to the school tomorrow morning," the educator declared. And, reluctant, he said that who had "been across" arrived to do so.
Followed another trying session. He barely had got home and seated himself in the cozy old chair that he had dreamed about so long when the owner of the town's picture show got him on the telephone.
"Ive advertised a talk by you between reels tonight. Folks are expecting you and it will go big," asserted the small town impressor. There was no escape and the man with the bold stripe had another bad half hour.
"Bill, we've got a big food planned for tonight and we want you over to tell the folks all about your experien- ture," she would say. And how could he refuse?
Then the uncles and the aunts and the old acquaintances began to get in their work.
Even when he went to call on her, what did her folks do but insist on coming into the parlor and making him talk about the things he had seen and gone through "over there." No time at all alone, just with her.
He's gone back to work in the city now; didn't stay in the old home town as long as he expected. And that gold service chevron isn't nearly as prized as it was a few days ago—K. C. Star.

He was probably the smallest "middy" in the navy, and one evening he was invited to attend a party in the saloon. He was such a little chap that the ladies had no idea that he was a midshipman at all but took him for somebody's "dear little boy" in a suit. He was one of them, on whose lap he had been sitting, and who had just kissed him, asked:
“And how old are you, little dear?” “Twenty-two,” he said in a voice like a foghorn. Then the lady swooned.-Life.

Junior Prom Will Be Real Party Say Leaders
"Plans are under way to make the Junior Prom the biggest dance this year, with all the frills and ruffles of 'before war times.' During the period of the war, the dances, such as the Prom and the Soph Hop, which are real parties, came to be known as ordinary dances, and were treated accordingly," said Charles Scofstall, one of the managers of the Prom.
"The University of Kansas, like every other university, has its big parties, and if the plan of last year is continued, the real social life of the school will simmer down to a few Varsity dances," continued Mr. Schofstall.
"It has been rumored that the Junior Prom this year will be a genuine Prom, a formal party. The students of the University want such a party, and the Junior Prom, which has always been the biggest party of the year, is the logical choice."
Voice of Chancellor Directs Road Makers
"You fetch that there empty wheelbarrow over here and I'll load the brick onto it whilst you get the segment ready."
The Kansan reporter looked out on the window, for such words from the chancellor were strange indeed. But there was no Chancellor on the landscapes—only a group of colored mer hall on the road back of Greer Hall.
The cub went on with his interview, jotting down notes occasionally, though inwardly puzzled as to the voice of the chancellor continued to float up to his cars, giving orders to the workmen.
"Hey, that board'll slip if you step on that end of it. Turn it around."
There was no mistaking that voice. The cub sprang to the window hoping to see the Chancellor directing the work on the road, if not actually helping, as the tone of the voice indicated. Again the only persons in sight were the negroes, walking back and forth with the wheel-barrows.
Angry at his inability either to discover the chancellor or to figure nute phases of this kind of work, the out his motive for directing such miucil planted himself upon the windowill awaiting further developments.
In a second he was rewarded. One of the workmen, a medium sized colored man voiced his opinion on some matter and the cub grabbed his cap to keep it from flying up in the air after the manner of the Sunday funies.
The cub stared. One of the men essayed a jest about the work and the Man with the voice spoke again.
"Goodnight," cried the cub as he dared back to the Kansean office, "couldn't that guy fool me of unsuspecting people? But you bet I'm gonna keep it dark."

Historic Structure Named For General John Fraser Civil War Veteran
Fraser Hall is First Among K.U. Buildings
Fraser Hall was first used in 1872. This was seventeen years after a university had been provided for in the Kansas State Constitution and six years after the first classes were held in the old North College. Fraser Hall was the first building on the present campus. At the close of Fraser Hall's first year the University had conferred only four degrees. There were 272 students enrolled.
The total cost of the building was $182,000. One half of this sum was appropriated by the State Legislature and the remaining half was obtained by bonds authorized by Lawrence citizens in 1870. The election total was $100,000, but this sum was never reached, the total being about $95,000.
There has been little change in the exterior appearance of the building. The fire-escape on the west side was added about 1910. At one time the foundation had to be strengthened. Offices have made some changes necessary. Electric lights were probably the first big improvement, and were installed in 1893. The telephone followed and the pipe organ was new in 1902.
The building was named for General John Fraser, a general in the Civil War. He was the second Chancellor of the University having succeeded Mr. Oliver of Lawrence. Fraser became the first active Chancellor and the first president of the faculty in June 1868. He held this office until April, 1874, when his resignation was accepted.
The Chancellor's office, office of the registrar, office of the Dean of college, the alumni secretary's office, the adviser of women, the office of the University Extension Division, and the offices and class rooms of the department of English, German, Greek, Latin, Roman languages, Home Economics, and the School of Education are in Fraser Hall.

Track Men Speeding Up For Aggie Indoor Meet And K. C. A. C. Contest
Fifty Men Are Working Now To Meet Manhattan February 17
Five Letter Men Are Back
Other Men Are Showing Up Well, Says Coach Hamilton. Delighted
About fifty track men are working out every afternoon in Robinson Gymnasium for the indoor meet with the Kansas Aggies at Manhattan, February 17. The Aggie indoor meet was scheduled to take place here, but the dates were reversed and the meet changed to Manhattan. The outdoor dual with the Aggies will be here May 2, the day before the state high school meet on McCook Field.
The annual K. C. A. C. meet is scheduled for March 8, in Convention Hall at Kansas City, Coach W. O. Hamilton will send a team to this meet as usual and will have a tryout a few days before to pick the team. Freshmen who show ability will be sent to the meet unattached. Coach Hamilton has asked Lewis W. Shouse, manager of Convention Hall, for a date for the annual Kansas-Missouri indoor meet but has not heard from Mr. Shouse. The big indoor meet is generally held about March 15, and will probably take place within a few days of that date this year.
Kansas has five letter men in school who are eligible for track, including "Dummy" O'Leary. The others are Ralph Rodkey, quarter-miler and
broad jumper; Lorin Dewall, a miler who showed promise last year; Marshall Haddock, who placed third in the pentathlon at the Penn Relay games last spring and who was one of the best all around athletes in the Valley; and Marcus Hanna, a member of the cross county team and a two-miler. Coach Hamilton will be out for the team soon, although he has not yet worked out with the men. O'Leary is the best quarter miler in the Valley.
Other men who are showing up well are Charley Heizer, pole-vaulter; Jackson, a sophomore and former Westport High Schoo1 hurler; Chandler, a freshman from Westport, who is one of the best pole-vaulters in school, and Roy Pringle of Harveyville, a freshman who won individual honors in the state high school meet here last spring. Pringle is an all-around athlete but specializes in throwing the weights.
K.U. Men Realize Value Of Physical Education
Fewer Men Than Women Seek Exemption From
Every dollar extended on the S.A. T.C. was well spent, if for no other reason than the understanding it gave the young men and the general public, of the value of physical education is the opinion of W. O. Hamilton of the department of physical education.
some for time spent in work. A greater interest in the gymnasium work seems to be shown by the men especially in boxing classes. The board of exemption for men has not met to pass upon those claims which have been asked.
This theory is shown in the few exemptions asked for in the department among the men, approximately only one fourth as many men have applied for exemptions as in the second semester last year. A few ask exemption for physical disability, and
The exemptions asked by the women students of the department is much larger than in previous years, due in part to the after effects of the influenza, according to Dr. Goetz, head of the department of women's physical training. The influenza often leaves the heart in a weakened condition, making it impossible to take the extra exertion of entensified gymnasium work, she said.
saint The percentage of women who work their way partially or wholly through school applying for exemption is much smaller than heretofore.
The green and yellow caps of the freshman have appeared at the Colorado State College of Agricultural and Mechanical Art.

You may be teaching in some little town in Kansas. Will you be helping to perpetuate the lines of cleavage between two or more competing little churches? Or are you going to throw in your lot toward the success of the community church?
The future of the church in Amериca depends pretty largely on you. If you ignore it, it will have to struggle along as best it can without you. If you contribute to it whatever of vision and of faith you may possess, it will be just that much richer.

Men's Student Council Will Publish Directory If Chancellor Approves
Plan to Give Students Three Days to Register Names and Addresses
GEO. O. Foster, registrar, thought that the plan as presented by the Student Council was a good one, but said that the Chancellor had to grant permission to the Council for the publication of the book.
"A student directory will be published this year if the Men's Student Council can obtain permission to publish it," Herschel Washington, resident of the Council said today. At the meeting of the Men's Student Council Wednesday night it was decided that the president confer with the Registrar and the Chancellor on the matter.
The plan outlined by the Men's Student Council is to have three days of registration in which all of the students of the University will have adequate time to give their names, addresses, telephone numbers, and home addresses. The lists as they are in the registrar's office, are incomplete and indefinite, and the three days of registration will give the University history, with only the names of the students now in school. Also the addresses are practically a definite thing, and this would make the book accurate.
"The Council does not plan to make money on the directory. It only realizes the necessity for such a book. This directory could be published for a nominal sum, sold at a moderate price, and give them access to everything they ever concerned in catalogue invaluable," said Mr Washington.
Hereschal Washington, was unable to obtain an audience with the Chancellor today, and no action can be taken until the Chancellor is seen regarding the matter.
Afternoon Dances Given
By Students Forbidden
Come Under Senate Ruling Prohibiting Attendance at Public Dance
Students of the University cannot attend the Saturday afternoon dances at F. A. U. Hall that are thrown open to the public, according to a decision of the Committee on Student Interests.
Miss Alberta Corbin, chairman of the committee gave out the following statement today:
Moved and carried that the public dances, termed "Tea Dances," given at F. A. U. Hall on Saturday afternoons he be considered as coming under section 11, rule 2 of the Senate rules on Student Social Affairs, Section 11, rule 2 of the Senate rules on Student Social Affairs, Section 11, a quarter session of the University no student or group of students may give or attend a dancing party in Lawrence, which is thrown open to the public indiscriminately at a fixed price."

After that time it would not be worth while for them to begin the work which by that time will have covered almost two quarters' work."

Popularity Contest Closes Today With 800 Jayhawkers Sold
Will Announce Winners at Popu-
larity Ball In
March
Nearly 800 "Jayhawkers" have been sold by the women who have been selling books on the campus and the two managers of the 1919 Peace Book. The large sale of books is due to the Popularity Contest which will close today said Marvin Harms, editor of the Annual. Eight girls will be chosen by popular vote from the list of fourteen candidates.
"This is the first time in many years that no graft has entered into the choosing of the 'Jayhawer Beauties'," said Lynn Hershey, business manager of the 1919 Annual. "With the personal casting of the ballot by the voter in a regular election ballot box, which is locked and will not be opened until the votes are counted by the managers and Prof. L. N. Flint, there can be no possible graft or staffing of the ballot box."
With the closing of the sales campaign, the managers will devote their time to the publication of the book, Mr. Harms, editor, said, "The inability of managers to secure adequate class list has made it very difficult to reach the students by mail, advising them of their dues, the time pictures should be in, and other information that the students has been through personal work and the columns of the Kansas.
"It is imperative that when the gloss prints are turned in at the 'Jayhawk' office, that they be accompanied by an 'honor' slip, which can be obtained at the office, and also any other printed matter to go with the gloss. The final date for all glosses to be turned in has been set as early as Monday after deadline, and no more prints will be accepted after that date.
"We admit that the Jayhawker has been delayed, but for reasons which would delay the publication of any year book. Every one who wishes his picture in the Annual, is urged to return by order to prevent any further delays."
"The winners in the Popularity Contest will not be announced until the Popularity Ball which will be given some time in March," said Lynn Hershey, today.
Go To Church Campaign Calls Students to Service
"The pastors of the various churches in Lawrence were pleased to notice the marked increase in the attendance
"There are a great many church members among the students of the University who have not yet made the acquaintance of their home church in Lawrence. Every pastor in the city describes to meet all the members of his denomination among the students and asks them if their diplwelcome is extended to those students, who profess no church affiliations." Mr. Parker said today.
Mr. Parker advises every student to make it a point to attend at least one service next Sunday. "This will be a start," he said, "and if you go once you will go again."
$tamp Sales in Fraser
Total $10,853 for 1918
The postoffice in Fraser Hall is one of the busiest places on the Hill. All of the branches of business done in it are located on or near here in a surprisingly large scale.
During the year 1918, the amount of stamp sales was $10,835.97. There were 485 packages registered and 1160 packages insured. Money orders to the number of 575 were issued and 690 were cashed. The estimated number of ordinary parcel post packages received for dispatch was 690.
Council Candidates Nominated Engineering students nominated four candidates for the Men's Student Council at a meeting held at noon today. They are Newton H. Benscheid, John Bunn, C. K. Mathes, and Harold Beisner. This is the first school to nominate candidates. The Council will elect two members from these four nominees.

Daily Kansan Board Elects New Members
At the meeting of the University Daily Kansan Board yesterday afternoon, Luther Hangen was elected as in-office-in-chief to succeed Helen Peffer. Harold Hall was elected news editor, Mary Samson, as Plain Tales editor, Emily Ferris, society editor, Marjorie Roby as exchange editor, and Charles Harmon as sport editor. Martin Harris was elected a member of the board.
Plain Tales From the Hill
Some of our professors speak a language that even the roughest of our rough politicians could not find fault with—if we but knew it.
The Thayer collection is being carefully guarded these days. Every night the professors take great pains to lock up the Fine Arts building so that no picture will be stolen. Last night however, five live specimens were locked up with the inanimate art exhibits. These members of the art class had stayed late and the professors on leaving locked both doors of the Fine Arts part of the Ad building. One of the women called up Professor Cahil and told him to please come up and let them out or bring some food for the caged animals. What Professor Cahil said cannot be repeated even in this column. But suffice it to say that he mentioned the infernal regions in his first reply to the startled art student at the phone.
Overheard in the Library:
Oh, well! he is right. The night the time.
Overheard in the Library:
"Say, Ray, what day is February 1?"
"Why, don't you know? February is Saturday night."
In a French class yesterday one of the recently liberated S. A. T. C. men translated the French word meaning "a midnight revel" as "reveille." Perhaps a peculiar association of ideas had something to do with this translation.
The Chi Omegas are advocating the enforcement of quiet hour rules for men's houses. After an evening spent according to Miss Corbin's rules and advice for women (almost), they are kept awake until one o'clock every night by the stringed quartet and the aspiring soloists in the Pi K. A. house.
Traitor! Propaganda! Pro-German!
A certain professor on this hill has
been receiving cards like this through
the mail:
"Herzlichen Gluckroumsch z u m
Zahre. Zabre."
On looking on the back of the card however, he found the name of Lieut. John C. Madden, a former student in the University, who is now with the 355th Infantry in Gaarburg, Germany, and who is sending his Christmas Greetings in the only language that he can.
"Yes! Honestly, Haley himself will be there. Really he is coming for sure this time. Now, if he isn't there this time, I'll feed you all."
Do you notice that now when the W. S. G. A. advertises that they are going to give a Haley party that they say it this way:
If Haley doesn't show up there will be some poor W. S. G. A. members who will be out of luck.
A Certain Spanish instructor was very much annoyed at the giggling of Dorothea Engle and Edwinna Peckham. He sweeted at them furiously but to no avail Finally he fairly screamed at them: "Now if you two can't quit laughing, get right out of here and take the door with you."
Here is another one on a professor
We hate to do this but—
A certain sorority on the hill has been causing a lot of unnecessary worry to two or three other sororities. This one organization happened to install a new chapter in some far away school. Now all the other rival sisters are wondering who their new pledge is and if it is still worth while to keep up their rushing of a certain girl.
W. A. A. To Give Sweaters
The Women's Athletic Association is planning to give sweaters to University women proficient in athletics this year for the first time in the history of the organization. Probably the sweaters will be given to women who win circles in athletic work. The proceeds of the W. A. A. dances, which have been given to the Red Cross, will be used to buy sweaters.

Train For Emergency Is Military Advice Given By Gen'l Wood
Commandant of Camp Funston Addresses University Convocation
"Next War" To Be Expected
Rhetoric Not Adequate Weapon Against Passions of Another Nation
"To keep the smallest number of men in uniform as a standing army, but to have the largest number thoroughly trained to be ready when the country calls," is the way Maj. Gen. Leonard Wood expressed his idea about keeping young men seated before a joint session of both houses of the legislature Wednesday.
The subject of the General's speech to be given at Robinson Gymnasium today is "The University and the War." It is expected he will talk on much the same theme as delivered to the Kansas legislators. General Wood said the United States should be prepared for future wars, and expressed firmly his opinion that there would be a "next war," "No one wants war," he continued. "The more a soldier sees of it the more desirous he is that there be no more war. The prediction that there will be no more wars is as old as time, but war is like a pestilence. It comes unwares and the most democratic method for a nation like ours is to be prepared. You cannot massage away by fide rhetoric the passions of nations whose methods and morals are entirely different than our own."
General Wood referred to the "fine league of nations already existing between England, France and America — not written in ink but in the blood"
This is the third time General Wood has consented to speak at the University, but he was unavailably delayed each of the other times.
William L. White, c'22,
Now Lieutenant in France
Sees Peace Conference as Private Secretary to His Father —W. A. White
William L. White, c22, was commissioned as a second lieutenant in the United States Army in Washington, previous to sailing to France with his father Lieutenant Colonel W. A. White, editor of the Emporia Gazette, for January. Mr. White is now special correspondent for Harper's Magazine.
He enlisted in the army as private secretary to his father, who was sailing to join the Army of Occupation, but unless he was a commission officer he would not be allowed to attend the banquets, and other functions with his father. Therefore while still in Washington he was given his commission, and they sailed for France early in January. They are now in Paris, and will follow the army of occupation.
Leitentron White was in K. U. last term in the S.A.T.C., a member of Company B. He left school to join his father immediately after the terms here were demobilized. He is a member of Phil Delta Theta fraternity.
Women Enroll in Religion
Enrollment for the class in comparative religions, which has been arranged for University women by the religions committee of the Y. W. C. A., is being held now. All women who wish to join the class are asked to write their names on the schedule just outside the Y. W. C. A. office. The enrolment will close Monday noon. Mrs. Esterly's class in comparative religions which meets Monday at 4:30 o'clock is closed. Dr. Braden will conduct another class at that hour.
Notice!
All seniors and graduate students who are applicants for the University Teachers' Diploma or the State Teachers' Certificate and who expect to teach next year are requested to meet Monday afternoon, January 27, at 4:30 in room 110 Fraser. Important matters relative to enrollment must be discussed and all prospective teachers are urged to be present.

MEN BACK HONOR SYSTEM
If the honor system is finally installed in the University, it will be the result of a gradual growth of student opinion in its favor. No similar program can be instigated suddenly, but must come naturally. Sentiment for the honor system in class work and examinations will eventually become a part of the average student's moral code. When the majority of the students are convinced that it is the only scheme, the machinery to install it and under which it will operate will be naturally evolved.
Another step in this gradual campaign for the honor system is the mass meeting for all men students which has been called by the president of the Men's Student Council for Tuesday, January 28. The men of the University will be given an opportunity to express their their opinion on the question, and will take their stand, without a doubt, in favor of it. The fact that the women began the campaign does not indicate that they are any more interested in questions involving the honor of the students. At the mass meeting the men of the University will have a chance to refute the assertion made in the women's mass meeting that women are naturally more honest than men.
As in the case of the former meeting, all men who do not come to the meeting will be regarded as uninterested in problems of student honor, or as directly opposing the honor system.
EATS
By what they eat and how they eat it—
The psychology of food is the latest course installed at this our University. Classes meet at 12:30 and 6 o'clock in the cafeteria. All interested observers are eligible, and it's a great course.
It begins at the door. The men, with all indications of carelessness, pass up the menu list. They proceed toward the food itself, but there the carelessness is lost. Instead our young men become suddenly cautious and frugal. They insist on a close-up inspection of each separate viand before they will invest their cherished pennies.
The lady prof trips down the line, with her mind all made up in advance. What she demands is calories, and calories.
A group of cookless Greek maidens enters, and take their seats. Meticulously careful of their table manners, and infinitely fond of pineapple pie a la mode, are these maidens.
They pass out in time to see the gentleman prof and wife and family arrive. To them further calories are sold, and at a most horrific cost. Calories and husky pay checks are conveyed table.ward. And then the voice of Mr. Professor's little Mary rises above the cafeteria noises. "Please, papa," says little Mary, "give me the lettuce leaf from your, salad to take home to my bunny."
It's a great course, this new one.
YOU MAY KNOW HIM
He is an advanced economics student. He loves to work. He can not fill twenty-four hours a day with the lessons assigned by the instructors. Accordingly, he waves his hand wildly in class and demands more work. The professors think that if he can do so much studying, other students are able to do the same proligious amount of work. They assign longer lessons. Any student who takes this method of advertising his superior mentality, or his special fondness for "digging" deserves the extreme penalty for disloyalty to the students. He deserves complete ostracism.
NOT EXACTLY FUNNY
"Some people must be inconceivably small! A pair of woolen mittens were taken from my coat hanging in the cloak room at Spooner Library. And they were tucked securely away, too! I'm afraid to even take off my coat now."
An irate, and justly irate, student has sent this communication to the student paper. It may be a bit amusing at first to every one except the man whose gloves were taken. None of us would appreciate the joke, however, if some of our own belongings had been appropriated. A man's wooled gloves may be a small matter to other persons, but they are rather important to him, and in this instance they were evidently important to another. To have your gloves stolen on a cold day is without any element of humor
The principles underlying the too prevalent tendency for students to take each other's property are certainly not laughable. A man who trades his own hat for a better one is guilty of theft, and nothing less. There is no reason why college men should take others' property any more than the ordinary citizen. Such action is a little too playful, and cannot be excused by the time-worn adage that "boys will be boys."
ARMY CHEVRONS SHOW
SERVICE
"You can't tell the players without a score card," the familiar cry at the baseball parks, might be applied to soldiers returning from France, according to army officers. To aid the public in determining a man's time in prison, the federal number of dead wounded, the following explanation has been prepared:
War Service Chevron—"A "V" shaped bar of gold lace, worn on lower left sleeve of all uniform coats, except fatigue coats, by officers, field clerks and enlisted men who have served six months in the war zone. This service is down. An additional chevron is allowed for each six months' service.
Silver Chevron--For officers, field clerks and enlisted men who served six months outside the theater of operations, a silver chevron (worn the coat) is allowed. For each additional six months another chevron is worn.
Wound Chevron—Also a "V"
shaped bar of gold lace, worn point down, on the right sleeve. Not more than one wound chevron car be worn if two or more wounds are sustained at the same time.
Service Stripes—Enlisted men who served three years will wear service stripes of the corps or department of service. The stripes are worn diagonally on both sleeves of the dress coat below the elbow.
Scarlet Chevron—Soldiers honorably discharged wear a scarlet chevron, point up, on the left sleeve of their uniform. A red ribbon to the, regular service attire.
Sky Blue Chevron—Service of less han six months in the theater of war is adicated by a sky blue cloth worn as he gold war service chevron.
The University of Toronto, Toronto, Canada, has opened a school for the blind to be run in connection with the regular university work.

I am a freshman student of the Engineering School, and I should be delighted to be a member of one or more fraternities or societies for social purposes. Will you please advise me how I can make it?
I'm not a fraternity man myself, but there are several hard and fast rules of the game that may help you: First, clean your fingernails and shave as often as is convenient. Thus they will single you out for your personal appearance. Second, appear to ignore the existence of such fraternity men as you may meet. Don't rush them. Third, sometime, when there are several brethern in some order near enough to see, pull out a big roll to pay a bill with. You can work this by using notebook paper for the bills on the inside and have real ones just on the outside. This will make the boys think you have money enough to pay for their new house. If these three suggestions are not enough, write again. Roomie.

I have two lovely kittens and they remind me so much of my favorite profs. One of them is dreamy and sort of poet-acting. The other is dignified and handsome. Would it be all right for me to name them Willard and Davay? Jane.
For cat's sake, don't. The poor kittens ought not to have to suffer from their resemblance to the gentlemen you mention, and the gentlemen deserve some more fitting honor than I. If you want to do that, show your appreciation start a campaign to change the names of the streets in Lawrence so as to name them after prominent people on the Hill. Roomie.

Think of The Teacher
Written by K. U. Students and Lawrence Pastors
There is a 19th century novel that was popular a good many year ago, "Put Yourself in His Place," and the title alone deserves thought. Everyone is taught the substance of this when in the Primary department of Sunday School and some way readily forget it in later life. It's easy to remember when trying to relieve suffering but there's another occasion when it would be wholesome to call it to mind. Put yourself in the place of the teacher who is trying to teach you something you dislike and want to shirk. That's the one who deserves nity!
How would you feel if you were honestly trying to teach a boy or girl a study which—easy for you—was a bugear to the pupil and the pupil shirked and cried all the way along? Could anything be more discouraging and dishearingening? Put yourself in the situation. Put yourself in a little more honest effort to bring up that detested work which has to be done. Not a Teacher.

Board of Public Works Designed Blake Hall
Named for Prof. Lucien I. Blake Formerly Head of Department of Physics
Lucien Ira Blake, for whom Blake Hall is named, came to the University of Kansas in 1887 from Rose Polytechnic Institute, Terre Haute, Ind. He received his A. B. from Amherst College, and his Ph. D. from Berlin University, where he was a contemporary student with Heinrich Hertz, the discoverer of what are known as Hertzian waves. Doctor Blake left the University of Kansas in 1906. He
went from K. U. to the U. S. Light House Board as constructing Engineer.
There is framed upon the wall of one of the rooms in Blake Hall, a telegram from Chancellor Snow to Lucien I. Blake. It is dated March 10, 1893, and says that $50,000 and $10,000 had been granted by the state legislature for the erection of a physics building.
Professor Blake drew the ground plan of the building while giving extension lectures in Wichita, Kansas. He taught by a young architect named Wells.
We planned a dignified building, in the style of architecture, of Green Hall today. All buildings, in those days, however, were erected by the State Board of Public Works. The plan of the Physics Building, as it was at first known, was consequently drawn by the state architect.
Professional jealously led the state architect to draw up his plans as different from those at Wells as possible. The firm has an unusual architecture of Blake Hall.
The building was finished in 1895, at a cost of $88,000. It was named Blake Hall, in honor of Professor Blake in 1898.
Blake Hall is in Chateau Renaissance style, and constructed of Cleveland sandstone. The cornices are of copper, which now has assumed practically a solid black color. The roof is of tile. Care was taken that no iron go into the structure of the building below the third story, so as to interfere with the accuracy of experiments. The black streaks which give a unique color scheme to the building however are supposed to be from outcroppings of that mineral in the sandstone.
The major service of Blake Hall has been as a Physics building. Some parts have served queer purposes, however. For instance, several years before the completion of Robinson Gymnasium, the top floor of Blake Hall was used as a gymnasium for the woman students in the University.

First Baker Quintet To Meet Jayhawkers On Home Court Tonight
Have Warrensburg, Bethany and Pittsburg to Their Credit
The Jayhawker basketball team will open the season on the home court at 7:30 o'clock tonight with Coach Schlademan's Baker University quintet as an opponent. Coach Hamilton attempted to arrange for a game with Washburn, but failed and Baker was obtained instead. The change in plans will be all the better for baseball followers here, as the Baker five is one of the fastest in the state and already has several victories to its credit, having defeated Warrenros Normal, Bethany College and Pittsburgh Normal by large scores.
K. U. Lineup not Announced
Coach Hamilton expects his team will have to extend itself in tonight's game but it will serve as a good test before the important series with the Missouri Tigers, last year's Valley champions. The Missouri series will be played in Robinson gymnasium Friday and Saturday of next week. The Baker team is out for the championship in the Kansas State Conference this year and appears to have the edge on the other teams in the race, so the contest tonight should be worth going to see.
Baker has a veteran team, made of three or four letter men from last year's quintet and a couple of star freshman basket tossers. Bruner, the star of the team, is one of the best forwards in the conference and may give the Kansas guards trouble. In a recent game at Baldwin, he shot fourteen goals from the field. McDonald, his running mate at forward, is a
Every Member to Have Chance On Test Before Mis-
good floor man and an excellent goal shooter.
The lineup of the Jayhawkers has not been announced but probably will be the same as in the games with Ames last week, with every member of the squad getting into the fray before the final whistle. Bunn, Miller, Lonberg and Harmes are the forwards; Matthies will play center and Bennett and Mason will start at the guard positions. Bunn may be shifted to guard at any time, as he is as much at home in that position as at forward. Marxen is the other guard on the squad and may get into the game.
Snow Hall Experienced Varied Career in 1902
Gymnasium, Museum and Geology Headquarters Were All In Snow
A gymnasium, a museum, and a geological building all in one might seem funny but it has been done. Snow Hall answers that with knowledge here. University of Kennesaw.
In 1912, when there was no Robinson gymnasium or Haworth Hall, the athletes if the school filed down to the basement in the west end of Snow Hall for their exercise and the geologists climbed up the wall in one room. And on the first floor where the Botany laboratory is now, was the museum.
Besides the gymnasium and museum, there was a lecture room on the east side of Snow Hall. The large lecture room on the north east corner was then an amphitheatre reaching from the second story to the basement.
Snow Hall, now containing only lecture and class rooms, was built in 1886 and named for Prof. Francis Snow, the first professor of Natural History in the University who later became chancellor.

Colored Women's Teams
Play Basket Ball Here
Series of Contests for Points Planned By Coach Hazel Pruitt
"This is the first time in the history of the University of Kansas that there have been basket ball teams composed of colored women," said Conch Hazel Pratt of the department of physical education.
"Two teams have been organized which practice regularly against each other. About half of these women played basketball in high school and some of them are good players. Mae aHrlan and Vivian Anthony, center, are showing up well and the guards are doing good work.
"The members of these teams have a little different view-point than do the women on the class teams," added Miss Pratt. "They look at the game entirely from a recreational viewpoint while the class teams have a more serious attitude. The colored women are not so accustomed to technical play; they are in having a good time, but without a doubt this type of playing does as much good as does the more serious type of the class teams.
continued Coach Pratt. "They come out for three practices a week although only two hours of gymnasium work is required of them."
"The colored teams are very much interested in playing basket ball."
The line-up for the first team is Laurena Kiser and Mae Harlan, centers; Elsie Scott and Anna Rodgers; forwards; Lucile Lee and Lelah Crump, guards. The opposing team is Armida Thompson and Doris Nevel, forwards; Eden Anderson and Damnie Mae Hill, guards.
Miss Pratt is planning a series of games for these two teams to play against each other for points.
Military Drill Begins At Oregon for R.O.T.C.
University of Oregon, Eugene, January 13. Military drill in the University of Oregon, under the auspices of the Reserve Officers' Training Corps, newly established here, began last week, with an expected enrollment of 350 men. Most of these are members of the first and second year classes, for whom three hours of military work each week is prescribed. Juniors and seniors are not required to take this work.
The R. O. T. C. is directed by the War Department's committee on education and special training, which conducted the Student's Army Training Corps, lately demobilized. Uniforms

Major General Wood Advocates War Course In American Colleges
Universal Training Held to Be Necessary for Safety Of Nation
NUMBER 65.
"Wars Have Not Ceased"
Universities Praised For Part In Furnishing Leaders In World Conflict
A plan to give theoretical military instruction in universities followed by intensive training in the summer was explained by Major-General Leonard Wood in his speech in Robinson Gymnasium Friday afternoon.
"I don't believe it is practical to give much military training in the universities during this academic period," he said, but they can give theoretical courses."
for about a month in the summer at the end of each collegiate year, university men would take practical military training under this plan. Four years of the training thus provided, General Wood said, would prepare men well for officers.
This plan was coupled with the scheme of universal military service advocated by General Wood and explained by him in his speech. The universities, he said, want to teach the doctrine of universal military service as a result of war experience.
WANTS SIX MONTHS OF TRAINING
Six months of intensive training for every able bodied man is called for in the universal training plan. In addition to the military training that would be given in that time would be industrial training, the men for practical peace-time work, according to General Wood.
"We do not want a large army," the speaker said, "but one just large enough for a peace force. We do want the largest possible number of men so trained that they can step into uniform and assume with reasonable efficiency military duties.
'Universal military and industrial training will leave the men peaceful citizens but trained and ready. If they are trained and ready they are pretty sure not to have to go. When you are prepared, the other fellow is going to let you alone. It is an inducement to war, not a force for peace if we go on in the unprepared fashion we have had.
The plan is not militarism, General Wood said. Militarism he defines as the use of force against an opponent.
Senior Play Prospects
Good, Says MacMurray
"Wars have not ceased. We must have a disciplined force of right to combat the force of wrong."
Prospects seem favorable for a first class senior play this year, according to Prof. Arthur MacMurray. Several manuscripts are being examined by the committee which will render the decision in two or three weeks. The original manuscripts will be gone over very carefully, and will be judged with absolute 'narrity to the contestants.
"It was thought for a while by the committee that adverse circumstances would make it impossible to produce an original play this year. But in spite of these conditions we could not keep the good playwrights down," said Professor MacMurray this morning.
Biggest Map of Kansas Made by Paul C. Murphy
Paul C. Murphy of the geology department has just finished the largest and most complete map of Kansas in the state. The map is 7x44 feet and other than the usual markings of a map it contains cells, coil, salt, gypsum, iron, zinc, and other known mineral deposits.
The map was made for the state geological survey and will be used for reference in Haworth Hall. Any new economic resources will be placed on the map, to keep it accurate and up-to-date. It should be stored securely and owing to the large size it will take half this time to blue print it.

Doctor Sherbon Declines Offer to Give Lectures For Section of War Dep't
Position Carried Salary of $150
Per Week With All
Expenses Paid
Miss Dora Robinson, federal agent for the section on training camp activities of the Department of War conferred last week with Dr. Florence Brown Sherbon to discuss proposals for Doctor Sherbon to give lectures under the auspices of this organization.
When Doctor Sherbon was attending the Social Workers' Conference in Kansas City last spring she was asked by Dr. Frances Brown of New York, one of the executive officers of the War Work Council of the National Y. W. C. A., to give occasional lectures on social morality. Doctor Sherbon wrote a type of manualia soli that dows pays for the effort put into it, that it's results are evanescent and unconstructive, and she declined the proposal.
Then the Section on Training Camp Activities of the War Department commanded the lecture bureau of the National Y. W. C. A, and the plans of the Y. W. C. A, broadened out into of the Y. h. C. A, broadened out into an educational campaign, under Federal control and commission, which seemed likely to become a really effective program. When Doctor Sherbon was invited to attend a conference of woman physicians in New York to arrange the details of her visit, she found in it and attended and participated in certain features of this conference. She was asked if she could give all or part of her time during the next few months visiting colleges and universities and giving a series of talks to college women on Health and Social Morality
This offer was flattering and ver,
tempting since it would afford an op
portunity to meet and reach a class o.
young women in whom she is interested
and which constitute what she
considers to be a strategic group as
far as shaping the social standards of
this generation is concerned.
Incidentally the offer was tempting, from a financial point of view since it carries a remuneration of $160.00 with all expenses paid by the courier.
Doctor Sheron refused, however, to absent herself from her work at the University which she feels has the first claim on her time and effort. She may make a few week-end trips that are much easier enough to reach in this manner.
Any student who finished the first semester in any chemistry course last year, will be permitted to enter the course in the middle of the quarter this year, provided he has registered properly, according to an announcement made by the department today. No new classes will be opened for such students. Many students who had one semester of work last year have enrolled at the beginning of the term to take advantage of the opportunity to review but others, including many men returning from military service, are planning to enter in the middle of the quarter.
Doctor's Sherbon's name was suggested to the council by one of the school physicians of Los Angeles, by the Chief of the Child Hygiene Division of the Kansas State Board of Health, and by various Iowa physicians familiar with her public health doctor. Doctor Sherbon has conducted Health Conferences under the auspices of the Federal Children's Bureau, the University of Indiana, the University of Wisconsin, the University of Iowa, and the Kansas Child Hygiene Division. She has conducted investigations and written reports for the Federal Children's Bureau, and is at present writing a bulletin for the Federal Board of Vocational Education.

Honor System To Be Subject of Meeting Of All University Men
Men's Student Council Asks Ful Attendance in Fraser Tuesday at 4:30
Men May Take Over Dances
Council Also Arranging to Publish New Student Directory
"All men of the University are urged to attend the mass meeting to be held Tuesday afternoon at 4:30 o'clock in Fraser Hall," Herschel Washington, president of the Men's Student Council announced today. "Any man who has the interest of the University's welfare at heart should be at this meeting in his vital topic among colleges today. If a man does not come to this meeting, we take it that he is against the system."
Arthur "Dutch" Lonberg, president of the junior class and member of the student council said today: "I am sure the junior class is behind this proposal. The women have expressed their opinion and now it is up to the men. Cheating has not been suppressed under the rules, but something that the honor system will not be learned than the present plan."
At a meeting of the council Sunday afternoon it was decided to hold a meeting of the College men immediately after the mass meeting for the purpose of nominating four members for the Men's Student Council, two of whom will also be elected at this meeting.
Arrangements were made for publishing a student directory, as soon as the chancellor agrees to the plan as outlined by the council.
The council is also making arrangements to take over the Varsity dances. George Devoe has been appointed chairman of this committee.
Chamber of Commerce Will Hear Gov. Allen
Students of University Would Hear Governor at Convoction
Governor Allen will speak before the Chamber of Commerce but no arangements have been made for him to speak at a University convocation. The Chamber of Commerce is giving its final rehearsal in March the exact date not yet set.
No arrangements have been made to have Governor Allen speak before the University according to H. G. Ingham, chairman of the convocations. "The students of the University would probably rather hear Governor Allen than he has just returned from France where he was with the Kansas men and was elected Governor while in France without political campaigning.
Those who will go to Kansas City today, from the Achoh House, to hear John McCormick, are: Lucille Phinney, Esther Carter, Elizabeth Gaddis, Ruth Syster, Nell Hohn, Ruth Oakleaf, Kathlyn Hood. Romana Hood, Gladys Long, and Mrs. John Amick.
Announcements
Those who helped out at the barracks during the influenza epidemic and who expect pay for their services are notified that they should inform Red Cross Headquarters or the undersigned as soon as possible, giving their full names and address, and the kind of service rendered whether as graduate or practical nurse's aid, exact number of days employed, and the dates if possible. Claims will be checked up and verified and forwarded for approval. Information must be in by the first day of next month or it will not be considered.

Flood Relief Experts Plan to Make Rivers Of Kansas Be Good
Would Impound Waters Of Streams During Rainy Season
Supply Source of Irrigation
Federal Government May Aid In Work, Says Engineering Faculty Man
Prof. H. A. Rice of the School of Engineering was in Topeka Saturday conferring with state authorities on proposed measures to protest against losses from floods along the Kaw, Republic, Smoky, Blue, Delaware, Solomon, Marais des Cygnes, Grasshopper and other rivers in the state.
At a recent meeting of the National Drainage Council, which was held in Chicago, a plan was submitted which would lessen the danger of floods in time of high water.
The plan consisted of building large reservoirs at the headwaters of rivers. As this would be a very great and costly undertaking, the council has recommended that the United States government appropriate one billion dollars with which to promote the work. If this meets the approval of Congress Kansas will receive a part and, according to Professor Rice the work in Kansas first would call for a topographical survey which is very much needed and which would be done either by the United States Geological Survey or by the Reclamation Service.
in summer the water of the flood protection reservoirs would be allowed to drain slowly from them and would keep the rivers in a fairly normal condition. The water could also be used for irrigation purposes as is done in Europe. The amount of water to hold back and the storage capacity that would be needed has not been determined.
The State of Pennsylvania has had surveys made along the Ohio River at a cost of $200,000 and is asking the government to appropriate money with which to build seventeen reservoirs, as this would save much in the yearly floods which sweep Pittsburgh. It would also aid navigation by supplying the river with water in dry weather.
The Kaw Valley Drainage Board of K. C. is voting bonds with which to raise the height of the dikes, along the river, about five feet. The project will cost $1,500,000 and would be able to handle floods similar to the one in 1909 with comparative ease, it is said
Delay Naming Winners Of Popularity Contest
Votes Not to Be Counted Until Jayhawker Ball at Later
Apparently few voters were cast in the Popularity Election which lasted for just four days.
The votes have not been counted and the outcome of the contest will be kept secret until the Popularity Ball when the winners will be announced. Ray Hemphill and Lynn Hershey who will manage the dance have a new idea as to how the winners of the contest will be announced.
The contest was conducted on the lines of regular student elections, with the casting of the ballots in a regular election ballot box. Herschel Washington, Ed. Mason, and Arthur Lonberg, members of the Men's Student council; Mary Smith and Lacone Spencer of the W. S. G. A. were election judges, along with the manager and editor of the Lawmaker.
The Alpha Chi Omega house caught fire this morning from sparks from a burning flue. There was no particular damage done as the Lawrence Fire Department arrived almost immediately.
"Now that the contest is off of our hands," said Marvin Harms, editor of the Jayhawker, "we will be able to put some good work on the book. However, we are tied hand and foot until the seniors, junior, and sophomores get busy and have their pictures taken. The class sections are important parts of the book, and it is essential that they be the first made up. The organization pictures are coming in well, but there are several organizations that have not yet arranged for space."

AIN'T THE SUSPENSE AWFUL, MABEL?
The question is "Who Won the Popularity Contest?"
Marvin Harms says that the votes have been stolen. Lynn Hershey says that they haven't been counted and are in the hands of one of the professors. Bobbie Lymn looks wise and tells a different story every time. Everybody knows who the winners are, however, but they all have a different one in first place. Oh, well, they don't worry us as half as much as they imagine. We are still able to eat, sleep and attend classes.
At the dance at the gymnasium after the basket-ball game Friday night, girls were few and far between for a while. Someone conceived the idea of having a tag dance to give all the stags a chance.

Why, only last Sunday night he had a date with a freshman and he took her to Lees for dinner. They were sitting behind the curtains as just as nice as you please and Ray smoked a cigarette. The girl was asking him if he would between puffs as Ray was easy ordering every thing on the menu. She was trying to impress Ray with the story she was telling him, and just as she was waving his cigarette wildly in the air, that cut-up Ray pulled the curtain back, and a whole mob of the poor girls sorority sisters saw her with the lighted cigarette. Now she spends her spare moments explaining to her doubting sisters, and helping blessings on Ray.

Fraternities Organize To Oppose Brown Bill To Tax Their Property
Rep. E. E. Brown of Douglas County Disapproves Greek Organizations
Legislators Get Protests
Harley, Other Representative From Douglas County, Opposes Bill
After the meeting, practically all members of Greek organizations wrote protests to their representatives and senators; in an effort to block the bill, they ready for the third reading and which will probably be this week.
At a meeting held at the Stigma Chi house Sunday afternoon representatives of all the fraternities and sororites in the University organized to oppose a bill concerning the taxation of property belonging to such organizations which is now pending in the Kansas State legislature.
The bill was introduced in the house a week ago by Representative E. E. Brown, of the country district of Douglas County. Members of the Greek organizations hope that it will be killed in the house at the third anniversary again for ten years. They will go to Topeka to lobby against it.
Mr. Brown's main argument for taxing the fraternities property, in this city is that Lawrence and Douglas county receives no income at all members of the fraternities and sororities as persons why try to draw in contributions in the University, and who spend their time and money unwisely.
Tom Harley, the other representative from Douglas County, is vigorously opposed to the bill, and agrees with fraternity members that there is no reason why their property should be taxed when property belonging to the Masons, the Y. M. C. A. and other fraternal organizations is not taxed.
Fraternity and sorority houses partially solve the dormitory problem at the University, the Greeks point out. University authorities agree that the fraternities help to keep University activities going, and that they maintain the high standards adn ideals of the institution.
Chancellor Strong is of the opinion that fraternity property should not be taxed any more than property belonging the various lodges and fraternal organizations in the community at large. "The fraternities and sororities fill the same place in the University student's life," he said, "that the secret orders have in the life of the average citizen."
Mechanical Engineers Hold First Meeting
The Kansas branch of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers, held its first meeting of the school year at Prof. F. H. Sibley's home, 1617 Tennessee Street last Thursday. Besides electing officers for the ensuing year, the matter of planning a program for Mechanical Engineers' Day, which will be held some time this spring, was taken up. The American Society of Mechanical Engineers was established for the purpose of bringing students in mechanical engineering closer together enabling them to better further their own interests. The organization will meet every other week at the home of Professor Sibley. John Bunn, recorder, promises many interesting discussions for the appliers. The following officers were elected at the meeting last week.
President, J. J. Jaykowsky; recorder, J Bunn; corresponding secretary, C Waltshtef; treasurer, W Wahtshtef; program treasurer, J Bunn and Paul C. Saydey

"BEAUTY CONTEST" WANES
The long-endured "Beauty Contest," favorite device of the editors of college annual to sell books, has come to a show-down, along with a few more pre-war activities. A. the University it has been named indispensable, along with several other things it has been found possible, to get along without. It has run its course from high tragedy to farce.
This year a salutary change was made. It was named a popularity contest and voting was put upon a reasonable basis with few opportunities for graft. It has run along calmly, many students not even knowing the time and place of voting. Yet they have bought Jayhawkers, apparently proving that they have some real interest in a college year-book. Many have expressed their intention of not voting. Several popular women have withdrawn from the contest. Other students have announced their intention of not buying their books until the contest is over or until their next check comes from home. They are buying a book, not space for a woman's photograph.
The show-down will come when the total number of votes cast is compared with the total number of Jaya-hawkers sold. On that evidence the fate of the contest in future years will doubtless be determined.
It is almost necessary to carry a notebook of information now-a-days to determine just how long he has been in the service, when he wears a gold stripe, a silver stripe, a red stripe and some corporal's chevrons.
METICULOSITY
A student went over to the library the other day to get a reference book in a certain course. When she located the book on one of the shelves, she found that it was locked up in a glass case and that the key was not to be found.
Another student, a junior, desiring some general information and not knowing just what book she needed, asked permission to browse around in the stacks. She was allowed to do this after signing a pledge promising 'not to consult the books too frequently' and 'not to remain in the stack room too long.'
A great deal of fun is poked at the housekeeper who arranges her books and magazines in a certain artistic design and then has a fit if anyone disturbs the pattern. But is she any worse than the professor who is so fond of his reference books that, while he realizes they should be in the library, cannot bring himself to the point of letting them be used?
There are many clever students in this University, but few of them can absorb knowledge from a book by standing ten feet away and looking at the cover.
THE WEEK-END DESERTER
A considerable portion of the enrollment of the University turns traitor on Friday afternoon, and is absent without leave until Monday morning or noon. The fortunate, or fortunate, persons live in Kansas City, Topeka, or towns nearby, and are prone to descend upon their parents at frequent intervals.
There is the person who rises in the midst of an 11:30 class and leaves, politely but firmly. She figures that she might just as well catch the 12:08 and be home all afternoon, as stay for the last two-thirds of the lecture. The freshman who is out-of-town on Saturday does not have to shovel snow off the walks, nor does the feminine variety have to assist with cleaning the house.
The week-end deserter hates to miss the lecture on Friday and regrets that he is unable to do any library work on Saturday, but he has to go home, and that's simply all there is to it.
If this care-free class would return in due season, it would not be so bad. But once they are home, why should they come back Sunday night and get in late, when they might as well wait until Monday morning? Especially when it only means cutting two classes. The professor is always interested to hear that the student has been home for the week-end, and is pleased to receive that statement as an alibi for work turned in late.
The week-end deserter does not have to eat the dismal Saturday lunch. He does not have to work on the Hill when things look down-cast and quiet. He is a community less for nearly half the week. He does not stay by the ship. Would it be a bald assertion to suggest that he might well spend a week-end in the library some time before the end of the quarter?

THE TWELVE-MONTH COLLEGE YEAR
The demobilization of the Student's Army Training Corps in all collegiate institutions at the end of the first quarter is a disappointment to some of the young men who had counted on getting at least a year of university training by the aid of the Government. For those sincerely ambitious for college training, the promised twelve-month college year has some merit. By this arrangement the student can pack a four-year course into three years. This gets him to his life work a year earlier than otherwise; but it puts the financing of his course on a somewhat different basis.
The student who plans to work his way through college usually begins with some small savings and earns what he can during the summer vacations. Or he does short-hour tasks as he goes along, working as chauffeur, waiter, barber or handy house man in afternoon or evening hours.
The condensed three-year course will eliminate his summer earnings; but it will make the borrowing of money to finance the course a more hopeful alternative. He will be in school for two years, and one year earlier and his power to earn will be increased by his school training just that much earlier.
There are advantages to be gained by working one's way through college, the greatest being the confidence one may acquire in one's power to overcome obstacles and the habit of economy that is formed. But such self-support limits the student's time for study. He it often forced to be more or less superficial in his preparation for recitation and in his research and laboratory work. It limits his opportunities for social intercourse, a large
factor in a liberal education. The self-supported student runs the risk of acquiring habits that are fatal to thoroughness in his life work.
The student able to borrow money to finance his course, and sincere enough to pay his debt promptly after graduation, stands to get more out of a college course than the student able to attend classes such a student, the three-year course of twelve-month years comes as an opportunity—Minneapolis Journal.

Prof. Skilton Praised At St. Louis Concert For His Composition
Music
Fine Arts Professor Successfully Sets Whittier's Poem to
Prof. Charles S. Skilton of the School of Fine Arts received the most enthusiastic praise upon his composition of the music for "The Witch's Daughter," by John Greenleaf Whittier which was presented recently for the first time at the all-American concert of the Choral Society of St. Louis. Professor Skilton was present at the concert.
Regarding Professor Skilton's composition, the St. Louis Post Dispatch
"This work easily projected head and shoulders above all the others from the point of view of music, and the fact is amazing when one considers the utterly unyellow verses by him. He often passes through a boyhood predilection, stubbornly insisted upon handicapping his muse.
"Actually the listener came to watch with certain awe and admiration the indomitable pertinacity with which the composer bore himself up on unflagging pinions through this welter of rhyming prose. Mercifully even he had been compelled to exercise a considerable portino of the poem. But the remnant was lengthy and dreary enough to compel an incessant exercise of Professor Skilton's ingenuity in order to keep the music interesting. His devices were necessarily legion; the music jested and laughed with the merrymakers at Esk Harden's husking bee, it barked with the house dog, it shimmered with the rays of the moon, it shuddered at the nameless terror of the spectral forest, it even became model to fit the 'quaint old songs their father's sung.' The orchestra was fertile in surprises and deft touches, and the chorus was called upon for dissonances and wied intervals worthy of Debussy.
"The cantata is throughout a learned, most ingenious tour de force, which would certainly find a high place in its field save for the deadly burden of its text. As it was, Professors would have been on the stage and received the most enthusiastic t ovation a composer has recently, received in this city."

The President's Lucky "Thirteen".
President Wilson does not believe that "13" is an unlucky number. A trip started on the 13th of the month gives the President the same feeling of security and well being that the discovery of a 4-leaf clover gives to other men. There is good reason for this, too. The name of Woodrow Wilson has thirteenth letters in it. The year of his election to the presidency, 1912, produces by the addition of its digits, the total of 13. Mr. Wilson was the thirteenth President of Princeton, and he held this high office for thirteen years. He was the thirteenth of the month he sold his "Life of Works" to a publisher and this "Washington" has some through thirteen large editions. President and his party reached Brest, France, on Friday, the 13th, a double hoodoo day for most people—K. C. Star.
Major General Wood Advocates War Course (Continued from page 1)
as "a condition where the military class forms a group apart, a close military autocracy." No soldier wants militarism in this country, he said. SAYS UNIVERSITIES PLAYED BIG PART
"Universities played a great part in the war," the speaker went on. "They have aided a lot in training men. They want to do more. They want to teach history better, giving more of practical facts, causes and government, and less of dates and of the generals who led the wars. I believe the universities want to teach universal military service."
General Wood praised the work of divisions in which are Kansas troops. The last of the men in the Tenth Division at Camp Funston are expected to be in their homes by the middle of February, he said.
"Training served to iron out the cheap distinctions between wealth and poverty, religious groups, and artificial differences," the general said, in speaking of the benefits the men had derived from training in the war. "We cannot capture their Americanism by the way they live up to American ideals."

"Statistics showing the number of jobs filled, are unsatisfactory because of the many times when a man lasts only about a week and we have to send another to take his place. Then again jobs that are often listed as odd jobs lead to permanent jobs without any further effort on our part.
"Many men are helped in finding suitable employment simply by suggestions made as a result of a talk in the office, without any record being made of it. They are persuaded to stay in school and then go out and rustle a job for themselves.
"At present we need more jobs, but practically all applicants have been located at least temporarily. On Saturday we can use an almost unlimited number of odd jobs, but in order to all them we must know of them by Friday, at least, because by Saturday morning most of the men have the day planned and we cannot reach them."

AFTER THE BALL
AFTER THE BALL
Funny how some people dance, isn't it. And funnier yet how some people get the idea that they are regular little Pawlaws—even they who leave memories of every dance firmly imprinted on your white shoes (which shoes you had cleaned just after afternoon, for the appalling sum of ten cents), to say nothing of the memories imprinted on your aching feet within the afootmentioned shoes.
There is a man who dances acrobatically, executing starling dips and glides with lightning speed, while you, grasping for breath, and clutching desperately at what few hairpins remain in your hair, expect every moment to crash disastrously to the floor.
Scarcely less strenuous is the human top—the man who whirls you and spins you until you realize that love and champagne are not the only things which make the world go round.
Then there is the exasperating man who no matter how lively a fox trot “Schemmie” is playing, will not move beyond a sluggish amble. How you long for a pin with which to prodm on to greater activity. And these are not all—there is the man who holds you so closely that at the end of the dance your flowers (if you are lucky and you are hopelessly wilted, as is the title) your new evening dress. Then there is another who hums (no, of course you never do that) loudly, or worse, ya, thrice worse, the man who is not sure of his waltzing, and counts lautily“One-two—two three” during the entire dance. But when you realize that all are not fairies like yourself (sad, is it not), so you decide to “be to his faults a little blind.”Daily Nebras-

A SIOUX VICTORY DANCE
One of the most truly American of the many celebrations over peace took place at the Indian Agency at Fort Yates, North Dakota, when the Sloux on November 30, performed, according to ritual, their old-time Victory Dance. This was the first performance of it since far-off day when they celebrated the victory of Sitting Bull and Gall over Custer. In the speeches which were interspersed between the parts of this aboriginal ceremony, we thanked to the Great Spirit for this "barbarium such as the Indians never heard of before." Singularly free was the tenor of their utterances from reversion to savage or revengeful appeals. One speaker said of the enemy, "Let them put away their barbarium and then we will give their nation its old place by the sacred camp-fire of the nations, and we will give them food according to the sacred
custom of our father to be merciful to a conquered enemy." This dance will probably never again be executed save in the event of the United States winning another war, for the prowess of the Indian is henceforth volitionally identified with that of the white citizen. Fannie B. Williams.

Kansas Defeats Baker By Score of 33 to 30 In Initial Home Game
Jayhawkers Didn't Liven Up Until Last Few Minutes of Play
Methodists Have Fast Five
Both Teams Played Loosely and Were Especially Erratic on Free Throws
Kansas defeated the fast baker quintet in Robinson gym Friday night, 33 to 20, in the opening home game of the basketball season. The contest was marked by occasional rogue work on the part of both teams and by the wild passing of the Jaya-hawkers. Only in the last few minutes of the first half did Conch Wiley Hamilton's men show the broad of basket ball that they displayed in the first game with Ames week ago.
Bunn started the scoring by caging a field goal in the first minute of play. R. Wellborn evened the score with a pair of free throws and then Baker forged ahead when Nevin shot a goal from the field. Matthews scored for Kansas and McDonald shot a long basket for Baker's second field goal. The game continued to be a see-saw affair with Baker having the edge on the scoring until the half was almost finished, when by a succession of short, accurate passes, the Jayhawkers worked the ball under their own goal and Bunn and Lonborg scored three times before the Baldwin team's defense recovered.
KANSAS LED IN FIRST HALF
the teamwork of the Crimson and Blue five in the last few minutes of the first half was excellent, but wild passes earlier in the period lost Kansas several chances to score. Baker also missed several easy shots at the basket and the half ended with the count 23-17 for Kansas. Kansas played for three minutes and then rested five minutes through much of the game.
KANSAS LED IN FIRST HALF
the game.
The Jayhawkers opened up with a fast passing game in the second half and increased their lead when Lonborg and Bunn counted from the field. R. Wellborn partly closed the gap by tossing a pair of free throws. Donald brought applause by making a pretty shot from near the center of the court and followed it up with a shorter one. Baker fought hard in the last few minutes in a desperate effort close the gap and long shots by McDonald brought the college quintet to within three points of the Kansas score when the game closed.
WEAK IN FREE THROWING
WEAK IN FIELDS
The game as a whole was loosely played and the Jayawaters repeatedly passed wildly. Both teams missed several chances for easy goals and there were considerable fumbling of passes. Lonborg and Bunn each counted five times from the field for Kansas and Matthews shot three field McDonald of Baker was the individual star of the game, scoring eight of the twelve field goals made by his team. Both the Jayawakers and the Methodists were weak on free throwing, Kansas counting three times out of ten chances and Baker making six of a possible fourteen.

Measure to Tax Greeks Killed on Third Reading In State Legislature
Brown Bill Defeated in House of Representatives By a Vote of 64 to 42
Hegler Leads Opposition
Douglas County Man Now Cons
siders Charging Students
for Fire Protection
Meeting with the approval of the House Committee on Taxation and passing that body on second reading Friday, the Brown Bill for the taxation of fraternity property met with suicide death yesterday afternoon when it was rejected on final passage in the house by a vote of 64 to 42. Representative Elmer E. Brown of Douglas County, sponsor for the bill, upon receiving the count, figuratively applied the pulmotor to his pet measure by asking for a call of the House. The call proved fruitless.
HEGLER LEADS OPPOSITION
It is rumored that Mr. Brown will carry his efforts still further by offering for the consideration of the House, a bill providing that fraternities pay the cost of fire protection for their houses. His original bill was to tax the property of fraternities and sororites.
NUMBER 66.
The opposition to the Fraternity Taxation Bill was led by Representative Benjamin F. Hegler from Sedgwick County. He opposed the bill this year, he said, because he believed its passage would be taking unfair advantage of many students now in the service. Hegler is a graduate of the University and is himself a fraternity man, being a member of Sigma Chi.
this interest was kindled on the Hill following the surprise passage of the bill on second reading Friday afternoon. Fraternities and sororities met in joint session Sunday where opinions were aired and action taken in bringing the side of fraternities before the members of the legislature.

Ask That New Hospital Be Named As Memorial For Doctor Fitzsimons
Legislature Will Be Asked to Erect Building for School of Medicine
"We wish to honor a graduate on the school, and hope to erect a new building," said Dr. S. J. Crumbine, secretary of the Kansas Board of Health. He denies reports that the new project meant the passing of the BELL Memorial Hospital on Bell's Hill at Rosedge.
As a tribute to the memory of Will Jiam Thomas Fitzsimmons, the first American officer killed in the war, the Kansas State Medical Society desires to name the new $200,000 hospital building the legislature will be asked to erect at the University School of Medicine at Rosedale, the "Fitzsimons Memorial Hospital."
The present site for the University of Kansas School of Medicine and the Bell Memorial Hospital was given to the State of Kansas by the late Dr. S, B. Bell, a memorial to his wife, Eleanor Taylor Bell. There have been several attempts to move the hospital to other Kansas towns, but Doctor Bell wrote a letter to the Kansas legislature asking the state to keep the school on the site he grave, and the legislative body adopted a bill providing the school was to remain at Rosedale for all time.
Doctor Fitzsimmons was killed when a bomb dropped by a German aviator destroyed a hospital in France, in which he was in attendance. He volunteered for service soon after war was declared. His home was in Kansas City, Mo.
The are to be two sections of the R. Q. T. C. established in the Oklahoma Agriculture College next semester. One section is for seniors, the other for juniors.

A professor of military science and tactics will be sent there by the Government.
Men's Roaming Houses Will Be More Homelike
Under Present Arrangements Proprietors of Houses Are
Mistreated
The University Employment (Bureau, under the auspices of the Y. M. C. A., is considering a plan which will make the rooming houses for men more home-like and, to give both the students and rooming house proprietors fair treatment.
At present, the students can hire a room and hold it until the demand for rooms has been filled and then move out. This leaves the proprietors with empty rooms and encourages irresponsible people to take charge of roaming houses. But the plan under consideration is it to tell all of the houses in the way to that of the Hotels Commission, and students will be encouraged to keep their contracts. This would insure better treatment for the matrons and encourage the very best people to run the roaming houses.
Electrical Engineers To Have Mixer Thursday
Upperclassmen to Entertain for Freshmen—Faculty Mandolin Club Present
The electrical engineers will hold a get-to-gather Thursday night at 7:30clock in Marvin Hall. The event is for all electricals and those who contemplate taking electrical engineering.
The seniors, juniors, and sophomores will entertain the freshmen. The program is varied and promised a good time to all concerned. There will be a feed, speeches, stunts and music. The stunts will be queer, the eats will be good and the music is by the Faculty Mandolin Club.
This is the first real get together since the war and should be well attended. "This is not an ordinary meeting," Prof. F. Ellis Johnson said this morning, "In fact, those taking electrical work can't afford to miss it." Admission will be by ticket only. These are free and may be obtained at the Dean's office and at Professor Johnson's office, beginning tomorrow morning.
Will Be No Merchants'
Short Course This Year
Lack of Funds Prevents Business Men's Course at University
UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS, TUESDAY AFTERNOON, JANUARY 28, 1919
"Because of the lack of funds no merchant's short course will be given this spring," said H. G. Ingham, acting director of the University extension division, today.
The budget now before the legislature calls for an appropriation to provide speakers and pay the other expenses of the course. If this goes through the short course will undoubtedly be held in the spring of 1920, said Mr. Ingham.
The last course was given February 5-9, 1971, when 355 merchants enrolled. At the closing dinner of the short course, cards were passed out asking the opinion of the merchants as to the value of the course. Every card showed appreciation. That the course is practical and instructive and should be supported by the legislature was the almost unanimous opinion.
Four more names have been added to the University honor roll of students who have died while in war activities. They are George W. Jarboe, Oathe who died at Porter Sound Naval Station on November 1; Carol C. Curve, Sewayne G.; A.W. Lowell, Gaylord, who died at Camp Bowie, October 23; and Elmer Pleicher of Alden. It is not known when Mr. Fischer died. This makes a total of 104 on the honor roll.
Four Additional Names On University Honor Roll
No grades are to be given out by the Dean's office to Students. The students should go to the instructors for consultation and each instructor has been asked to provide at least one hour office a week for a consultation period for both students and the other members of the faculty. A notice of this hour should be published upon the class-room door.
This Is A Long Piece About The Mayflower And Gen. Len. Wood
This Is the Second Deck of Head on the Mayflower
Story
Maj-Gen. Leonard Wood also holds the office of governor-general of the National Society of Mayflower Descendants, one of the largest and oldest of its type in America, formed for historical and patriotic, rather than social ends.
The national organization, consisting at present of about 5,000 members, has as its object to trace the descendants of the Pilgrims, to verify and publish manuscript records and other data of interest, and to discover, establish, and mark points of historical importance, and so to commemorate and perpetuate Puritan traditions and ideals.
Active membership in the National Society of Mayflower Descendants is limited to those who are directly descendant from one of the signers of the Mayflower Compact. At present, branch organizations exist in seventeen states, including Kansas. The Kansas society the present governor is Prof. E. M. Hopkins, of the department of English of the University and several others in Lawnence are active members.
General Wood was the guest of honor at the annual meeting of the state organization held in Topeka, November 21, 1917, the other guests were Arthur Capper and Mayor J. E. House. On that occasion General Wood spoke at length on the problems of the war, some of which have since become the authors of which are still urgently in need of solution. At the meeting following the Kansas society made him an honorary member for life.
The general society issues regularly the Mayflower Descendant, a magazine devoted to the publication of all sorts of interesting antiquarian material, general and personal, pertaining to its general purpose. The number of persons entitled to membership is greater than might be supposed. It is probable that the total number in the United States eligible by virtue of descent is more than 100,000.
During the war the efforts of the society have been centered chiefly in furthering war work; but it now proposes to resume its regular activities with new energy and to make a vigorous general campaign for the enlargement of its membership and the extension of its historical collections.

Dorothea Spinney Will Give Entire Play of "Iphigenia" of Euripides
The university students and the people of Lawrence will be given an unusual opportunity to see Miss Dorathea Spinney, the noted English actress, Thursday night, February 6, according to an announcement made this morning by Miss Margaret Lynn. Miss Spinney will present the "Phibian of New York" play, she presents the entire play, furnishing all scenery and arrangements. The Gilbert-Murray translation of the Greek play used.
"The Association of Collegiate Alumni have been trying to get Miss Spinney here for some time," said Miss Lynn, this morning, "but we had almost decided that she would not come this far west. She has made arrangements to give the play in Cincinnati and wired the Association yesterday that she would come to the University of Kansas, February 6.
Miss Spinney has appeared mostly before university audiences in England and America. She has been in the United States for many months and did not return to England on account of the war conditions. It is reported that she will return to her country shortly after she gives the play here "phiglena" (the students of) the university several weeks ago by the Colunna players.

Plain Tales From the Hill
"A Beauty Chorus of Youth and Charm That Can Sing and Wear Costumes." This interesting description of the chorus girls of "Stop, Look and Listen," appeared in an advertisement the other night. It certainly was a relief to learn that they could wear costumes along with their customary pleasant smiles.
Professor Mahieu of the French department is another one of our dating professors, and according to all rumours, he almost rivals Professor Ferguson as a stepper. However, the other night, he experienced quite a shock. He had taken a certain young woman to a concert on the Hill and had stepped out of Fraser Chapel with her, when all of a sudden he turned around only to find that she was gone and that he was alone in the crowd. He rushed madly back and forth and finally decided that he would just have to give it up. However, when he got up to the bulletin boards across from the law building, he found her, waiting for him with a group of girls. The happy professor breathed a sigh of relief and then resolved*to be more careful with the ladies when he took them to concerts, hereafter.
LATEST SUNDAY EVENING PASTIME Now that this warm weather is coming on again, the dates over at a certain sorority house are becoming so numerous on Sunday evenings that the girls are trying to think up mob games to entertain the mixed parties that assemble in each room. Last Sunday night, fourteen sat in one room with the lights off and told ghost stories. They shrieked and shuddered together passing away a very enjoyable evening.
After the dates had left, however,
one of the youngest remarked, "Well,
that was a nice party, but I think I
could have enjoyed myself even more
if I had a flash-light to turn on the
davenport."
Some people are just naturally too stingy to live. The other day this conversation was overheard at Bricks "Come on, Pete, let go up town and
"Come on, Pete, lets go up town and see what going on."
"Can't do it, Bill. I'm saving my money and as sure as I go up town, I'd go and spend a dime for a shine."
Two girls were walking up town the other day and a couple of dogs followed them all the way.

College Faculty Grants Six Degrees to Students
At a meeting of the faculty last week it was recommended that a motion to recommend Guy Chapman for degree of bachelor of arts be rescinded and instead be recommended for the degree of Bachelor of Science.
The following persons were recommended to receive the degree of bachelor of arts: Agnes Marie Brady, Sara Evelyn Clov, Elxert R. Hills, Daniel L. Katterjohn, and Charles Hoyt Watson.
The University of Texas is thinking seriously of erecting some fitting memorial to those former students of the University who lost their lives in the war.

Early Season Results Place Kansas Quintet In Running For Honors
Missouri Has Edge, With Perfect Score in Four Games Played
All-Valley Men on Team
Kansas Aggies Show Well in Preliminary Games Not in Valley Series
With the basket ball race in the Missouri Valley fairly well started, it appears that Missouri has the edge as far as comparative scores are concerned, with Kansas and the Kansas Aggies very much in the race and the Nebraska Connushers still an unknown quantity.
Missouri has won four games without dropping one, Kansas has broken even, the Aggies have yet to play a Missouri Valley game but have a good team, and Ames has lost three out of four games played. Washington was twice defeated by Missouri, and Nebraska has played no games in the Valley.
Missouri again has a strong scoring machine, as was shown Saturday when the team piled up more than sixty points against Westminster college, Captain Craig Ruby, veteran and All-Vallue man, Scott, the other forward and Vogt, another letter man and center, form the point-making combination which Bennett and Mason, the Jenkins and Anderson, participated Friday and Saturday nights in Robinson gymnastics. The Missouri guards are new men and may have trouble in keeping the Kansas forwards from hitting the basket.
Ames has practically a new and inexperienced team this year, although Levsen, the center, and Shepherd, forward, showed very well against both the Jayhawkers and the Tigers. Missouri defeated Ames two times by a margin of about ten points each game, and Kansas piled up a 33-point lead in the first game, only to be nosed out by one point in the second.
Although the Kansas Aggies have (Continued on page 4)

freshmen Material Promises to Make Point Winning Kansas Track Team
Trip To K.C.A.C. Meet For Several Freshmen On Spring Track Squad
The first year string of track men at K. U, look better than ever this season and from early trials it looks as if the yearling squad would be represented by several men in the annual K. C. A. C. meet at Convention Hall in Kansas City, March 8. That is the only meet on the K. U, schedule in which first year men are eligible and several will be sent if they show point winning stuff.
"The first year men look good and we always send the best of the yearling men to the K. C. A. C. meet and will do so this year if they continue to show up," said W. O. Hamilton who is coaching the track men every afternoon in the gymnasium between four and 6 o'clock.
Sexton of Leavenworth looks the best in the century dash and has good form. He won that event in the state high school meet here last spring and promises to be one of the Varisity's best trick man. Chandler and Jackson, two men who won firsts here under Westport colors last spring and won in the Missouri meet, are out and look like comers. Pringle of Harveville, high point man in the high school meets here, is out for the field events and the hurdles. The Kansas team will need a field man next season as K. U. is short in field events this year.
The first year men will give Kansas a real track team if they return next fall as all are first class men and will be point winners in the Valley. K, U. will have the usual spring interclass meet where the fresh squad will get their first real test.

TO TAX STUDENT HOMES?
A bill offered in the Kansas state legislature providing for the taxation of property of fraternities and sororities was defeated in the House of Representatives by a vote of 64 to 42. The proposed legislation aroused a storm of opposition in the colleges and universities of the state, not only among fraternity men and women alone, but among non-fraternity students as well.
In normal times the case for taxing fraternities is weak enough. Fraternities and sororities are only social and economic organizations that enable students to live more cheaply and with better advantages. They give room for the growth of the normal tendency to group life. The state has consistently neglected the existence of such a tendency in its failure to build dormitories and student rooming houses.
As a result fraternities have supplied the need. They promote interests of the University, and, rightly considered, are nothing if not a part of the university itself. They are not profit making organizations. Their aim in the economic sense is the provision of better and cheaper homes for the students.
To tax them would mean to their eight or nine hundred students at the University of Kansas a substantial increase in living expenses. The proposed action would make harder the way of those who are trying to get the advantages of social contact along with their academic education.
The justification for taxing fraternities now is even more shadowy. The fraternities are in unsettled conditions. They have given their men in large numbers to the army. The abnormal conditions of absence of members and high prices have made their life very precarious.
Whep the men are beginning to return to college it would scarcely be a flattering recognition of their services to single out their school homes as objects of special taxation. It would be a small reward for the returning students to have their living expenses increased after their patriotic actions had occasioned their withdrawal from school and a corresponding neglect of fraternity finances.
The House of Representatives, in rejecting the proposition, acted wisely, not in the interests of a special class, but in the interests of fraternal organizations all over the state, as fraternities stand in the same relation to college activities as more general fraternal societies stand in regard to the public.
UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN
Suggestions have been made to build reservoirs to lessen the danger of floods in Kansas during high water. The University is fortunate indeed to be placed on a hill where overflow of the drinking water in campus buildings can not form a flood, so that such precautions are unnecessary.
REMEMBER THE WOUNDED
This time last year the war was at its darkest stage. Our boys were either sailing or about to sail for France. The Germans were hitting hard and steadily. The outcome was uncertain; But we would not lose heart, and we dared not slack in the little things which we who stayed at home were able to do. We were helping in any way we could. Classes were formed for the purpose of making compresses for the wounded or knitting socks and sweaters for the fighters.
Then came the turn of the tide. Our allied forces beat back the enemy and swept them out of France with deadly swiftness, but at terrific cost. The end came and we celebrated—and ceased our work.
But we have not yet reached the end. Our work did not stop with the signing of the armistice. There are the wounded to care for. Perhaps the convalescing soldiers here and over there do not need the heavy woolen socks or the purred sweater, helmet, or wristlet, but they do need soft easy slippers, crocheted or knitted, while they lie so long waiting for the stubborn wound to heal.
This comfort of these wounded men depends upon us. It takes only one half day to crochet a pair of comfy slippers. There are at least one thousand women enrolled in the University of Kansas. One thousand pairs of feet can be made comfortable and one thousand men reminded that the women of America have not forgotten them.
Those men finished their work—let the women at home finish theirs.
The pessimistic student says that whenever he is not feeling good and his appetite is gone, somebody is certain to ask him into a drug store to have a banana split.
FILL A MUCH FELT WANT
Plans for a student directory this year have been made by Men's Student Council, and if University authorities approve, a book will be published. The year and a half the University has without a timely student and faculty directory has shown the need of such a publication.
Under present conditions ready access to the addresses and telephone numbers of fellow students is impossible, and inconvenience results. The numerous requests for such information at the office of the registrar increase the work of that office.
While agreeing that a student directory is needed, some persons object that it is not practical this year because there will be many changes at the end of the second quarter. Although there will be some changes, they will be comparatively few, and do not constitute sufficient cause to reject the publication of a directory when its advantages are considered
The lateness in the year will require swife work in compiling material for the directory, but the Student Council has made detailed plans for getting out the book promptly, and is waiting only on consent to publish it. It is reasonable to expect that consent will be given and a much-felt need, of both students and faculty will be filled.

With no intention to strike a man when he is down by the indirect method of taking a jab, at his ancestors, it may not be amiss to consider: the decline of the Hohenzollerns from the time when one of them brought suit in Missouri in 1849.
DECLINE OF MONARCHS
And through him alone we draw dews from combs of sweet.
Insanity drove Frederick William IV from the Prussian throne in 1838. Shortly before that a fizzled German revolution came near accomplishing the same result. But Frederick William had his merry little lion before he signed the throne over to his brother. He fed his people the same "Me and Gott" stuff so popularized by the family tree, and he got away with some of the same kindy exuberance in the United States.
In. 1849 A st. Louis court was called upon to consider this petition:
"The plaintiff (Frederick William, IV, King of Prussia) states that he is the absolute monarch of the Kingdom of Prussia, and as king thereof is the sole government of him, he is unrestrained any constitution, nor will his will expressed in due form is the only law of that country and is the only legal power there known to exist a slaw."
A Missouri jury today might balk at such a statement of fact. A typical American court might be pre-emptive in petition. But the King won his suit.
The royal plaintiff was all worked up about some money that had been taken from the Prussian postoffice. An employee had embezzled funds and fled to America. The king, being the government, had to make good the money and the patrons of the postoffice. But old Fritz didn't propose to hold the bag.
He engaged an American lawyer, long prominent at the Missouri bar. The attorney took hold of the case and won it. Besides his fee, the attorney received two magnificent vases from Frederick William IV in token of his appreciation. The appreciative Hohenzellern still remember that good turn. The kindly William II, until 1832, of Austria and Peror of the Germans, showed his appreciation of the Missouri attorney by bestowing upon him in 1890 the decoration of the Grand Cross of the Hohenzellern Order.
WHY?
Old Mr. Hohenzellern and his boy,
Frederick William, both admittedly down and out, probably often recall incidents such as these in reflecting
In *a* military camp, out near St Paul, young soldiers were grouped idly on the grass, near a road. It was Sunday afternoon and the camp was full of visitors. There were many fathers and mothers there, but partied in the open, the unchaperoned young girls who passed, giggling and ogling the soldiers.
The lads at the roadside watched the folks pass, talking among themselves, now and again responding with a laugh or a careless word to the girls who accused them. Finally, an automobile filled with young women went slowly by. The car was driven by one of the girls. It was a costly car with a monogram on the door. The girls within were richly dressed, rouged and powdered and pennelled in the manner popular even with decent girls of to-
the good old days of the dynasty.

day. The girls in the car called to the boys, offering them a ride and a supper, and passed on, giggling.

The boys looked after the car in silence for a moment, then one of them

Every girl in America should be taught that khaki is emblematic of a sacred cause, and that when they aid a boy wearing it to degrade himself themselves are degrading the cause for which he wears it. Every American girl should resolve that she will help the boys she knows to bear themselves like American men—just plain American men, than which there is no finer, straighter, cleaner class in the world. —Pictorial Review.

Increase of Phone Rates Makes Deficit Certain
Kansas Telephone Co. Would Have K.U. Pay Rent on Its Private Exchange
The intended increase in price by the Kansas telephone Co. for the service given over the University lines has necessitated Chancellor Strong's putting a $2,734 deficit item in his budget for the coming year. At present the University has six trunk lines running to the city of Lawrence and 145 branch lines in different buildings of the University.
The University pays $360.00 a year rent for the six trunk lines and besides own her own switch board pays $363.00 a year for operators' salaries. The Kansas Telephone Company, however, is not astute enough want them to pay rent for all telephones on the private branch archives.
This matter was brought before the Public Utilities Commission in Topeka January 10. Chancellor Frank Strong and John Shea, superintendent of buildings and grounds, were in Toneka to attend the hearing.
To date nothing has been given out by the commission as to the result of the hearing but the telephone company has been asked by the Utilities Commission to measure and locate all cable and wiring in the buildings and report the findings to them.

Measure to Tax Frats Killed on Third Reading

THIRD DEFEND OF BROWN BILL
Representatives of Greek letter organizations felt relieved this morning upon hearing of the rejection of this bill which has been killed by the state legislature three times within the last six years. Each time the bill has been presented by Brown of Douglas County. Upon being interviewed the following fraternity and sorority members expressed opinions regarding the defeated bill:
"The bill was a direct stab at the heart of the University and had it passed it would have dealt a blow from which fraternities could not have recovered," Chuck Shofstall, Sigma Alpha Education.
"We appreciate the co-operation of all the students and the support of our representatives in the defeat of the unjust bill." Martha Banker, Chi
"We feel very grateful to our representatives in the legislature for the action taken on the Browi bill," Ernie Clark, Khi Pka Spera.
"We feel grateful to Representative Tom Harley of Lawrence and the other members of the legislature who were instrumental in having the bill rejected." Catherine Oder, Alpha Xi Delta.
"The members of all organizations express their thanks to the members of the Kansas State Legislature who realize the value of fraternity and sorority life to the University." Mary Samson, Kappa Kappa Gamma.
"We want to express our thanks to the students and representatives who worked against the bill." Fred Jenkins, Phi Delta Theta.
"Such misrepresentation as Mr. Brown has given of the fraternity and sorority life at the University of Kansas has been owing to his lack of knowledge of such organizations." Jessie Wyatt, Kappa Alpha Theta.
"If this man Brown would learn something about fraternity men, instead of basing his prejudices on the fraternity man as he is depicted in musical comedies, I believe he would change his life. He could be a better misunderstands the purpose and structure of the fraternity system." Freig Richy, Sigma Chi.
"We appreciate the support of our representatives in defeating the bill for taxing fraternity houses." Edgar Hollis, Kappa Sigma.
"The resulting action on the bill should show the sentiment of the state on this bill which has been defeated in time." Harold Hah, Beta Theta Pla.
"I know I voice student sentiment when I say that the Brown bill is unjust and inconsistent." Ray Hemphil, Phi Gamma Delta.
"The support of our representatives in defeating this unfair bair is greatly appreciated." Earline Allen, Gamma Phi Beta.

Astronomy Instruments Stored In Basement May be Put Into Use
Maj. Alter Asks Legislature for $3,500 For New Building
On Hill
If the legislature passes the appropriation for the budget asking funds to erect an Astronomical Observatory, the building will be erected just east of Haworth Hall, where the vocational barns are now located, according to a report developed by Major Dinsmore Alter of the department of astronomy.
Major Alter, has drawn the preliminary plans which call for a building fifty by forty-eight ft. containing one glass room thirty-two by thirty-six feet with a seating capacity of one-hundred students, a room to contain the master telescope, and other small instruments. The instrument will be the weather instruments, the chronometer and allied instruments.
The equipment for the observatory was purchased about five years ago, no funds being available at that time to house it, and is now in use in the basement of Blake Hall, for demonstration purposes, to students to the uses of it. Although no practical use can be made of them in their present location.
Only a small fund is asked for the erection of the building — $3,500, as the building is only one story, and no new apparatus; only a few minor instruments will be necessary. "The instruments now owned by the department when properly mounted," says Major Alter, "will be almost all that will ever be needed for undergraduate work, and is ample for some graduate students." The lens has a high lens which is large enough for all student work, as there is no need of a larger lens until the field of research is entered.

not clashed with a Valley team, they have defeated Washburn and the Hassell Indians by small scores and also have won Funston service team to their credit.
The Aggies have Captain Johnny Clarke, veteran guard and All-Valley man, and Hinds, a fast and scrappy forward, from last year's team. Besides these men, Hunger has showed up in the attacking games and is an excellent goal shooter. Jennings, a new man, is playing center for the Aggies.
Washington, although twice beaten by Missouri, is liable to develop into a hard team to defeat before the season is over. Captain Marquard, All Valley center last year, is one of the teams whose defense is the field and free-throw line. Russell, a scrappy forward of last year, is also back on the team.
Nebraska may prove the dark horse of the race, as the team appears strong on paper and has already defeated the Ft. Omaha Balloon School quintet with ease. Captain Jackson Hawker forwards and Hubba, tackle on the football team plays either center or guard.
Women's Land Army To Be Theme Of Two Talks This Afternoon
Organization Seeks to Increase Food Production in America
The Women's Land Army of America on which Miss Ida Oglivie will lecture this afternoon to the Y.W.C.A. and the Woman's Forum, is a voluntary organization of patriotic women for the purpose of helping in the increase of food production of the country by providing units of women farm workers to the farmers as seasonable labor.
The Women's Land Army is working in co-operation with the federal and state labor bureaus and the council of National Defense and has been heartily indorsed by President Wilson, it is said.
The women workers are housed in a community house and fed under proper supervision, says the organization's propaganda. They are each given a physical examination and are guaranteed a normal wage by the farmers for whom they work. It has been proved by examination that a
majority of the women have gained in health by hard physical labor.
In 1918 about 8,000 women were sent out by the Land Army. They did all sorts of farm labor including planting, cultivating, and harvesting. They cut, sacked, and loaded hay, corn, rye, and wheat, and performed every phase of silo work. They worked on big western farms, orchards, farm plantations, on dairy farms, truck farms, private estates, and home gardens.
It was as a war emergency that the Women's Land Army started. But now that peace has come its activities are needed more than ever for, in the reconstruction period that is at hand, America has before her the duty of feeding a large part of the world. The Food Administration has pledged 20,000,000 tons of food to Europe in 1919. This is almost double the amount sent last year, and, if America is to keep her pledge, an increase in the labor supply will be imperative.
Over 60 per cent of these women workers were college women, 25 per cent were professional women, 11 per cent were trade workers and only 3 per cent were non-wage earners.

Honor System Accepted By Men of University; Want Senate Approva
NUMBER 67.
Advocate Student Board to Pass on Cases of Cheating
Men and Women Members
Men Meeting Also Nominated Men to Fill Vacancies On Council
The men of the University of Kansas accepted the honor system in their meeting in Fraser Hall Tuesday afternoon and drew up a resolution which will be handed to the University Senate designating the way the honor system will work. The men are in favor of the honor system as it is a top toward student government and we men think the cheaters will act with discretion in crooking when they know all of their fellows are against cheating. The resolution as drawn up and approved by the men is:
Resolved: That the honor system be adopted in all schools of the University of Kansas, such a system to eliminate all supervision of examinations by instructors or agents other than the students themselves, who may report any cheating, copying, or unfair practice to the joint board. Said board to consist of five junior or seniors elected from the men's student body, and four women from the women's student body. Said elections to be held in the sprgm, one representative from the law, pharmacy, and engineering schools, and three from the College, provided a case of a vacancy, the Men's Student Council shall appoint. The Men's joint board shall have excluding jurisdiction over all cases under the honor system, and may use such disciplinary measures as it deems fit, provided that in case of expulsion from the school is ordered, said order shall be subject to review by the Men's Student Council, whose decision shall be final in cases affecting men students.
The women of the University who called a meeting some time ago to discuss the question have accepted the men's plan and want four women representatives on the joint board. The system was debated by the men and finally passed. The men believed that there will be less cheating under the system and that the persons who do the cheating will be found out and dealt with fairly and immediately. Any violation of the honor system may be reported to this joint committee which will take the matter up.
The reason for designating five men, and only four women for members of the board, as given by the men" was that the women of the University have already appointed four members of a committee, and it was felt advisable to have an odd number of persons or the board.
The men held an election to fill out the student council and athletic board
Nurses Should Apply To Doctor Clark for Pay
Nurses and volunteer nurses who served during the influenza epidemic in the S. A. T. C. hospital barracks may get pay for their work by applying to Dr. A. W. Clark, 929 Massachusetts Street, who was chairman of the Nursing Relief Commission. Those pay must give their names and time they worked to Doctor Clark or the Red Cross by February 1.
It is hoped that the Federal Government will pay these women at the rate of $500 a month and $150 a day for subsistence, the pay received by those who served at Haskell Institute.
Doctor Clark has names of twenty-seven women who served in the S. A. T. C. hospital barracks, but not their addresses nor the time they served. Most started on October 11, 1918.
Only Sixteen Students To Try Out for Debate
Henry Shinn, coach and manager of the inter-university debate between Missouri and Kansas, reports that the number of names handed in to him for try-out Thursday is exceedingly small. At present there are only 16 names, but the team has been turned in, and the coach believes that there should be at least twenty-five. Try-outs will be in the Little Theater Thursday.
Moths and Butterflies Flutter About Spooner
Night time truly was never made for study, especially in Spooner Library, during the wonderful premature spring weather that Jupiter is bestowing upon the creatures on the earth now. Only the real moths of the University are attracted by the brilliant lights of Spooner now.
Don't be mistaken. Others go, others besides the moths, but they tarry not long among the learned volumes that the noble ancestors of the University have bestowed upon this generation to cultivate the young Kansas minds. They go, yes. They sit, to be sure, and they have not the attitude of those that intend to stay long. Every time the outside door opens and a young gallant appears, the butterflies flutter simultaneously. The books which they are supposedly reading sometimes upside down, hold no more interest for them. They all watch enthusily to see who the lucky woman is going to be. As the couple walk happily out of the educated atmosphere, they all sight, and watch expectantly for their admirer to appear.
By 9:30 clock the last bit beep. To
withdraw them, you can find more lively

UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS, WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON, JANUARY 29, 1919.
"Doctoring By Mail Is New Course Given By Extension Division
"Home Health and Home Nursing" is Subject of Correspondence Class
Waiting for a doctor to come twenty-five miles and then to have him come in drunk is only one of the many startling experiences that are being told to Dr. Florence Brown Sherbon by Kansas mothers who are taking a new correspondence course in "Home Health and Home Nursing" offered by the University of Kansas.
"This woman is the mother of two children under 2 years old," said Doctor Sherbon. "Her experience emphasizes the need of more physicians in Kansas, especially for practice among farmers, and a need of better education of Kansas women generally on health subjects. Many women write me that their families are without necessary medical attention because roads are so bad physicians cannot read a doctor, the woman's husband had had 2 crop failures in the last two years. Perhaps they couldn't have afforded to call another doctor if one had been available."
Doctor Sherbon's correspondence in "home doctoring" is one of the most individual and 'bipopt enteric division has ever attempted.
"It is my purpose," said Doctor Sherbon, "to get enough information from the people needing help that I may visualize their individual cases. It is not difficult then to send the proper lessons and to give suggestions. I don't expect people to study this course. All that is required is that they read it. I find a good personal letter to some farmer's wife will give the desired stimulus for study. "No one has dropped the lessons after taking them up and my children are un题获幼稚. So far, I have calls for help from people living in town. The great bulbs of the letters come from women living in the country, but it is my plan to make the course as valuable and helpful to women in the small towns and even the cities."
Doctor Sherbon's course is open to all residents of Kansas on application to the University extension division, Lawrence, Kansas. In addition to being a graduate nurse and an M. D., Doctor Sherbon is the mother of twins.
All members of Aboku will meet at Brick's at 9 o'clock Wednesday night. Please take notice the hour before leaving from 7:30 o'clock to 9 o'clock.

French Soldier-Historian Will Speak February
Monsieur Andre Fribourg Wil
Give Annual Alliance Fran-
caise Lecture
M. Andre Fribourg, French historian, journalist and soldier in the first days of the war, will give the annual French lecture of the departant of Romance languages, February 21. His subject will be, "La Jeunesse intellectuelle française et la guerre." Monsieur Fribourg is professor of history and geography in the College Chantal, the College Sainte-Barbe, and the upper school of the Paris Chamire de Commerce. He has written particularly of the French Revolution and of economic geography. He has received three prizes from the Academic Franceise.
He enlisted in a French infantry regiment August 2, 1914, and fought until September, 1915, when he was discharged for wounds received in action in advance of the front line trenches. His works since that time have dealt with the Alsace-Lorraine question.
The one book which took the 1918 Academic prize is "Creio, Histoire d'un soldat." He is now lecturing for the Alliance Francaise.
Smiley, Former Student,
Wounded in Argonne
"Artillery Support Could Not Keep Up With Infantry."
He Said
Stanton L. Smiley of Co. M, which is composed entirely of students of the University of Kansas, returned to his home at Wilder, Kansas, Monday. Smiley was wounded in the Battle of the Argoine Forest.
When asked his opinion regarding the support, or lack of artillery support given his division in the Argonne fighting, Smiley said: "There was plenty of artillery support, when the started out, but the infantry went so fast is was impossible for the artillery to keep up."
Mr. Smiley spoke of seeing William Studer, a former student in the University, coming back from the front, bleeding from a shrapnel wound in his side. Smiley was a student in the college in 1915-16 and 1916-17 until Co. M. left for Fort Sill. He will not be back in school this year.
Former Men of S. A. T. C.
Neglect Hospital Dues
Probably many of the students, especially former members of the S. A. T. C, are unacquainted with the privileges which the University Hospital and Infirmary offer them.
Very few, if any, of the S. A. T. C. students have paid their hospital fee. Although the hospital will turn away no student who desires attention, yet it would please them if these students paid their fee of two dollars for the remaining part of the year.
The student who pays his hospital fee of $1 per quarter can at any time get medicine free at the hospital. Physicians hold regular office hours there, and ordinary prescriptions will at any time be filled. If the student is suddenly taken seriously ill and is unable to appear at the hospital a physician will take care of him if he is so ill he needs to go to a hospital, the University Hospital will take care of him at the nominal price of one dollar a day.
The Commerce Club held an informal meeting of the old members last night at the Sigma Nu house. At the election of officers during the meeting Louis Potuck was chosen president; Daniel Cromwell was vice president; Dwight Smith, secretary and treasurer. The club will meet next week at the Sigma Chi house.
Armenian-Jewish Relief Campaign Lagging Here
Kansas is Asked to Raise $600,

is Needed.
Names for the new student directory are being gathered today and tomorrow by the Men's Student Council of the University. Blanks have been placed in several of the buildings, and are being filled in by the students. Here is a sample blank filled:
How to Fill Out Directory Information Blank
The Armenian-Jewish Relief drive has not met with success up to the present time in the State of Kansas. Of the $10,000,000 Kansas is asked, $600,000. To date Kansas has not failed in a single drive but if this drive is successful the people will have to get behind the campaign and give more liberally than they have up to date, according to authorities.
The purpose of this drive is even more important than that of previous drives in that the money goes directly to these Armenians who are dying by the thousands. The University is not carrying on a campaign for the country, but is now conjunction with the city. Up to date the drive in the city is far behind and the people act very indifferent as to the result.
Kansas has asked for an extension of time to raise the required amount. Only a few towns have subscribed their quota.
Stiff Practice Puts Jayhawkers In Trim To Meet Tiger Team
Freshmen Players Give Promise For Future Basket Ball
Teams
Concn Hamilton put his Jayhawker five through a stiff 40-minute scrimmage with the freshman team Friday night in preparation for the important series with Missouri Friday and Saturday on the home court. The Varsity, although handicapped by the 20-point lead given to the yearlings, easily won the game and showed improvement in their floor work exhibited in the Baker game. Most of the wild passing was eliminated, although the forwards missed several easy chances to score.
After another hard scrimmage to-night, the team will take it easy Thursday and be ready for the Tiger invasion Friday night. Every man is in good condition and will be ready to battle the Missourians to the finish. Missouri is coming here with a clean slate, having won five games this year, including four regularly scheduled Valley games.
Coach Hamilton worked his men in several combinations against the freshmen Tuesday night and each player had a chance to show what he could do. The lineup at the beginning of the scrimmage was: Lonborg and Harms, forward; Matthews, center and Mason and Bunn, guard. Bunn played guard about half the time last year and may be used in that position against the Tigers, as Miller, Lonborg and Harms could take care of the forward positions. Bennett got into the game in the last half and put up his usual hard exhibition. Bennett plays running guard and if he is in form against Missouri as he was in the first Ames games, Kansas' chances of winning will be increased a great deal.

The freshmen put up a stiff resistance against the varsity in the early part of the scrimmage and showed promise of developing into a combination that will be hard to beat before the season is over. Coach Bond is putting the yearling candidates, about fifteen in number, through signal and passing practice every night and has several men who will prove valuable additions to the varsity next year, providing they return to school. Scoop Olson, star Lawrence high school center of last year, is playing

Eaters and What They Eat Subject of Study
The average student or other customer goes into the cafeteria, takes a tray, glances at the bulletin board and then has his tray filled with anything that looks good to him. The only guides that he knows or follows are monochrom and his postcard book. It knows not even common smeal in eating.
Scientists have figured out this business of eating and the home economics students of the University and also the dietitians can spot you the minute you enter the cafeteria, and decide right away what you should order. Of course, you don't order what they think you should, because when you are hungry you don't care to be a scientific specimen. What you want is food. But anyway you have provided the student with material for a lecture next time class meets.
Don't think you can sneak into an eating place without some of these students watching, and wishing that they could warn you.
"A certain woman on the Hill who always goes around as if she carried the weight of the universe and the University upon her shoulders came into the cafeteria the other noon and

Plain Tales From the Hill
ANOTHER EVIL OF THE S. A. T. C.
ANOTHER EVOL. OF THE S. A. T. C.
The men are back in office again
here at K.U. Heensens, Yes! Couldn't
you tell it? Haven't you noticed how
spick and span every thing is? At
the Kanan队 office, we now have a man
in the office, but he isn't the Chief.
The first thing these new office
holders did when they came into
their new offices was to have a regular
old-fashioned cleaning day.
They brought their dust rags from home, swiped a broom and dust pan from a poor defenseless janitor and went to work. Yes, you see they simply can't forget that training they got in S.A.T.A.T. training gives them to distraction and they cannot work until they get the furniture polish.
Time was when they used to be very annoyed by the orderliness of one or two women members of the board, but now they take all the statistics and valuable information that has been compiled by the women in their absence and after inspecting it, it can they disarrange it into orderly piles so that no one could possibly find it. We welcome them back.
"How Mary had a little lamb I'll tell you in a trice Because it was a meatless day And Mary had the price."
This type of plain tale will appear now and then for the next few weeks so be expecting it. The Kansan has absolutely quit all rough stuff so that there will be something left for the Editors of the Sour Owl and other scandal-mongers to print.
That class in architecture certainly develop some original ideas. One girl when asked to draw a plan for a home, drew one long room with a trap door underneath marked rubish. Who said girls weren't good at evening aid saving devices.
In letters written to the Kansan giving advice to students as to their future occupations in life, one of the requirements stressed in a letter from the Bacteriology department: "Ability to work with people, especially in emergency situations" bacteriologists if this was the only requirement. However later on in the letter is says: "Keep you head and be sure of yourself."
Ambitious Reporter: Oh, the Law school has passed something again. I'm not sure whether it is about Holder or P physical Training but it is something rash like that.
A couple of men called at one of the sorority houses Sunday night. They happened to stand just in front of some long glass doors, and they stood there all of two minutes before ringing the bell. The girls seemed to be all crazy to dance but the housemother was gone and they didn't like to disobey house rules while she was gone, so each girl was swaying this way and that all by herself, displaying new and unheard of steps and graceful, and little and big kicks, under the supposition that dancing by yourself doesn't count. At last Scott Johnson got up all his power and rang the door-bell, but he said it was a mighty hard thing to do.
Ask Kansas to Enroll In Woman's Land Army For Summer Service
Department of Labor Believes Women Will Have to Help Relieve Labor Shortage
Director of Units Spoke
Will Go to Topeka to Ask State Co-operation in Organizing For Work
Kansas may be the next state to enroll in the Woman's Land Army, the purpose of which is to relieve labor shortage, if the plans of Dr. Ida H. Ogrivile, professor of geology at Barnard College, and director of the several hundred units now established in the country, are carried out. Doctor Ogrivile addressed the members of the Y. W. C. A. and the Women's Forum, Tuesday, in Fraser Chapel, she spoke last night at a meeting of the Department of Doctor Ogrivile will present her plans for the establishment of a land army unit in Kansas. The extension of this organization is urged by the Department of Labor at Washington.
Twenty-one states enlisted in the Woman's Land Army in 1918, and placed 20,000 trained women on farms to relieve the labor shortage last year. In view of the fact that a large army of occupation must be maintained in Europe, the Department of Labor at Washington believes the farm labor shortage will be acute this year unless some provision is made to fill the places left vacant by the men. The army overseas will not be returned in time to take part in the planting and harvesting of crops.
Twenty million tons of food must be produced this year, according to the Department of Labor, and trained laborers must be at hand to produce it. Therefore, the Department urges the Women's Land Army to continue its work this year, at least until the food crisis is past.
The Woman's Land Army began its work in a small way in 1917. Seventy-five women, including Barnard College women as well as working girls from the city, were trained in farm work at Bedford N. Y., and were sent out to relieve labor shortages in the city's vicinity. Every phase of farm work, from pitching hay to picking apples, was taught at the Bedford unit.
The organization in 1918 was extended to include other of the Northeastern states and the movement across the country to the Pacific Coast.
Doctor Ogilvie believes that agriculture is a new field which has been opened to women by the war. In every instance where the women were given the preliminary training they received from members of the members of the Woman's Land Army were recruited from indoor office work.

The Daily Kansan aims to picture the undergraduate life of the students; it goes further than merely讲新闻 the news by attaching to the ideals the University wants for its students to be clean; to be cheerful; to be kind; to leave more serious problems to wiser heads; to all, to serve to the University, to teach the students of the University.
WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 29, 1019
Just as college professors are about to get into the limelight, some kill-joy of a statistician comes forward with the data to prove that of thirty-seven thousand college professors in this country only twenty-seven have been unpatriotic during the war. This puts the pedagogue back in his former position of a mild sort of person.
MILITARY EDUCATION TESTED
Major-General Leonard Wood's plan for universal military training is more than a hypothesis. It is actually being tested at Camp Funston and promises to be a successful method of carrying on education and military training together, to the benefit of the men as well as the good of the military service.
The Student Army Training Corps is a thing of the past. Reserve Officers' Training Camps are being tried in many educational institutions The "Wood plan" of national service goes a step farther in that it does not require physical training at a time it will interfere with mental work. This objection General Wood aims to overcome by giving intensive training during a certain period each summer instead of the old plan of five or six hours drill a week when studying is the prime consideration.
In the operation of the plan as it is being tamed at Funston, physical requirements take a minor place. Classes in reading, writing, and arithmetic are the elementary courses given to the so-called illiterates in the camp. Spanish, insurance, investments, and banking are offered to more advanced students. Vocational courses, formerly considered purely military, but now modified so as to be useful in civil life, are given at Manhattan as well as Funston. These include blacksmithing, motor repairing, leather working, steam fitting, cooking and radio telegraphy.
Five lecture courses, namely, American history, American biography, American geography, American literature and American government, are arranged with an object of presenting national ideals and the advantages of our form of government.
Included in the scheme are courses in physiology, sanitation, and hygiene, games such as boxing and wrestling, besides dramatic representation. Medical corps officers and athletic and social directors who are familiar with the work conduct the classes.
Such is the plan that has been worked out at Manhattan and Camp Funston. Less than a month was necessary to turn yesterday's vision into the working organization of today.
To select the officers in the camp who were capable of giving instruction, to choose the most desirable places for meeting, and to classify the 27,000 students according to their capabilities was no easy task, but so well has it been done that the approval of the plan is apparent.
It may be that the "Wood plan" is the best answer to the American cry for universal training.
THE ART OF CONVERSATION
Pessimistic persons who declare that conversation is fast becoming a lost art are not acquainted with the genus student, as he is found on Mount Oread. His speech is ready, facile, quick, picturesque, never-failing, and unending. Some criticize it for being colloquial and slang, but no one dares accuse it of being scant.
The student discusses everything. He hails his friends on the campus, walks along with them arm in arm, and always has something which he classifies as "keen dope" to relate to them. He has heard everything from the report that dances are to begin at six o'clock and close at ten, to the rumor that some students are going to raid the next meeting of the Senate.
it is deplorable, but arue, that the feminine contingent of students is even more inclined toward excessive and futile conversation than the men are. They relate at length the sublest details of their latest love affairs. Just what Willard meant by the second page of the letter written on Christmas Day from Haute Marne, France, is a matter of conjecture which can be extended to last hours. The woman with things on her mind can always find a listener—in fact, several of them.
Efficiency experts who want to tabulate the number of hours a day a student really spends in pursuit of knowledge would discover in an investigation of the average student's day items like this:
Hanging over the convivial table and talking of the ruthless instructors, 1 hour, 40 minutes.
Talking to Ruth about what Harold said in the library, 55 minutes.
Asking best friend for a loan until the first of the month, 20 minutes.
Discussion of the Senate's action on the gymnasium question, 1 hour 15 minutes.
Evading the house-mother about the plates and forks in the waste-basket, 5 minutes.

VARSITY DANCE STAGS
Regulations were made and enforced this year by the Women's Student Government Association prohibiting dateless men from attending Varsity dances without paying admission. At the last few dances, however, University men have avoided these restrictions by slipping into the hall by means of the fire escape. They fill the doors and ante-room and view the dance like small boys at a menagerie.
The presence of these stags is annoying to both the men and women attending the dance; to the men, because they constantly are being asked to give dances and receive none in exchange; to the women, because of their constant onlooking and their cigarette smoking inside the building. These men use the chairs and some of the dancers always have to stand up
The worst harm, however, is the injury done the men themselves. In slipping into a pay amusement these men place themselves on the same plane as the small boy who crawls over the fence to see a ball game. The estimation of these men and the social organizations to which they belong is greatly lowered in the minds of every one attending the dance.
The doors can be locked and all unpaying stags can be kept out. But is it necessary that such restrictions must be made for men who have the intelligence and honor of students of the University of Kansas?

THE LUNGS OF TREES
To the Editor;
This Column is Open to all Students of the University
Can some reader of the Kansan
ul锋尼 an unscientific mind?
Can some reader of the KK enlighten an unscientific mind?
I have often heard quoted that "leaves are the lungs of trees." In high school science I learned that every living cell must breathe. Now, what do trees do in the winter when their lungs drop off?
Editor Daily Kansan:
Unscientific.
Were the two fraternities treated fairly who danced until after midnight? They told the disciplinary committee frankly that they disobeyed their ruling and did not try to evade the issue.
Other organizations here have held dances until one o'clock this year but were not reported. These fraternities knew the ruling but sent in an accurate report. They should be compelled to fire the officer by the examples of others that those who turn in inaccurate reports suffer no penalty. Fair Play.
To Editor Daily Kansan:
Why is it that the K. U. athletes never receive letters and sweaters as rewards for their work under Kansas colors when other college colleges honor their athletes with lettered sweaters? The K. U. runners and players put forth all of their spare time to getting in condition for meets and games and should receive a fitting reward.
At one time the Men's Student Council considered having a tag day to make up the fund for the purchase of sweaters but this plan fell through. The organization held a field meet there if the athletic association cannot buy the sweaters this year.
E. L. H., c'20.
Some people think that ignorance is merely an accumulation of facts. But that hypothesis reveals a lack of imagination. Ignorance, any more than knowledge, is not con-
trollable to us. We are quite largely with feeling, and feeling is the product of one's general intelle-
lence.
A NOTE OF IGNORANCE
Mothers make men, and wives mend them—Life.
We acquire knowledge largely by contemplation and meditation. But the thing we are learning about must impose itself upon us in such a way that we are forced to understand it our feelings and not our minds.
The Germans had plenty of facts at their disposal, but they were ignorant. Their feeling was not intelligen-tive. They knew the areas of their national consciousness.
To have knowledge of a particular thing is simply to have come in contact with it in such a manner that one's feeling has been aroused about
This is true, more or less, of all of us. When we are truly ignorant, it is a case of arrested development in certain directions. A man who has not brought up a family may have at his call all the statistics about families. But he is truly ignorant in the sense of not being developed in the feelings that intimate contact with one's family produce.
There is nothing harder to overcome than ignorance. It must be beaten to a standstill. We have done this to the Germans. We must now conclude that more contact by bringing them into contact with the right things —Outlook.
If you cultivate the qualities which you admire so much in others, the very qualities which attract you, you will become attractive to others. Just in proportion as you become imbued with these qualities, so that they shall characterize you, will you acquire one desire—a charming personality.
THE PULL OF PERSONALITY
A good education is a great advantage to a man or a woman, but most of us put too great emphasis upon mental equipment and training. We seem to think that this is everything; but our personal atmosphere may have more to do with our success in life, more to do with determining our place in the world, than our mere mental equipment.-Pictorial Review.

THE REWARD OF VALOR
A French lieutenant, recently from the front, was in Washington on business for his government, where he hailed himself by a pretty American girl, who said:
"With what hand did you do it?" she inquired.
"And did you kill a German soldier?"
“With the right hand,” he said. And then the pretty American girl seized the right hand and kissed it, whereupon an American officer who was standing nearby strolled over to her and asked, “Heavenas, man, why didn't you tell her that you bit him to death”—Burt Box.
The office boy had been sitting for hours at a typewriter, gazing vacantly into distance, and the force was becoming worried. "He's sick," suggested the kindly, old, gray-haired bookkeeper, but the blonde stenographer insisted there must have been some tradeym at home.

Fowler Shops Was Gift From George A. Fowler
Contains Engineering Laboratories and University Light And Power Plants
Fowler Shops was finished in 1899, at a cost of $21,000, and the gift of Mr. George A. Fowler, of Kansas City, Mo., as a memorial to his father.
It is devoted to the mechanical and technical instruction of the School of Engineering, and to the electric light and power plants of the University.
The present equipment of Fowler Shops represents about $20,000, appropriated by the legislature. The building is of native stone, 224 feet long by 50 feet wide, two stories high, with an attic and a handsome tower. It includes 22,000 square feet of floor space for laboratory purposes and contains boiler and engine rooms equipped and adapted for boiler and engine testing, with generators aggregating 2,000 horse power, for light and power for the University buildings.
The building was damaged by fire of undetermined origin May 9, 1918, and a loss then estimated at $30,000 occurred. The building was repaired soon after in order to have it ready for use in the instruction of the vocational section of the army.

The federal government should bear part of the expense of flood protection in Kansas, as a means of preventing millions of dollars loss annually and for the purpose of giving employment to returning soldiers. This is the opinion of H. A. Rite, a professor of engineering at the University of Kansas and secretary of the State Water Commission.
Team Work To Make Kansas Rivers Behave
K. U. Engineer Would Have Uncle Sam Help in Flood Protection
"Flood protection along Kansas rivers such as the Marais des Cygnes, the Kaw, Republic, Blue, Solomon, Smoky and other streams means flood protection for Missouri," said Professor Rice, "and for that reason should be supported by the federal government as well as by Kansas. The tentative plan for flood control in Kansas is to build reservoirs to impound flood waters and then gradually empty the reservoirs in low water periods. This plan is only in the 'praes' of the state because it will have to be made and much preliminary work done before it can be said just how far it may be feasible. Pennsylvania has finished similar preliminary work to prevent floods in the Pittsburgh district and along the Ohio and now proposes to build seventeen huge
reservoirs to impound flood waters if the federal government will aid."

Plymouth Jottings
After the Kansan church notice had gone to press last week it was decided to consummate at once an arrangement which had been pending for some weeks. By it Plymouth Church and the First Presbyterian Church are merging their Sunday evening services. Both churches have agreed to this experiment very heartily. Is it not a significant sign of the times that such an agreement can be so easily reached right in the heart of the busy season of the year? It shows how close we are to one another denominatively. Last Sunday evening Dr. Bleck preached a splendid sermon in Plymouth pulpit. Next Sunday evening it will be my privilege to preach in the Presbyterian pulpit. When the lights are out at one of the churches, try the other! They are only a stone's throw apart.
Did you miss the Mixer last week at Plymouth House? Hard luck! We had so good a time that we almost forgot to go home. Don't miss the next one.

scenes. They are safe so far as the student council is concerned. Could any one, even the crabs on the W. S. G. A. expect them to brave the dark alone and to go home by themselves? After the interrupting element has dispersed, the moths give a sigh of relief. Generally all that can be heard is the busy scratching of pens, gliding swiftly over page after page of note paper, or the rapid turning of leaves.
Last night, however, the peace of the faithful was disturbed. From behind tumbled heap of books, oblivious to all they or the world in general might contain, he slept. Perhaps he imagined he was a horse or something of the kind for truly he was in one of the stalls. He slept about fifteen minutes, then he began to snore. The others were disturbed by this unusual outburst but no one disturbed the senance. Then came the nightmare. Groan, piteous and pleading issued
forth, accompanied by deep sighs.
Finally the librarian had the heart to wake the sufferer and to tell him that he studied long enough for one night.
The lights blink, and all the moths close their books and go to their rooms to continue. Early morning find them in the library again, buried in their books, but the butterflies await for the appearance of the lights at night before they doll up and come to begin their "study."

Many Requests Come For Classified News
Correspondence Extension Department Would Appreciate Used Magazines
The correspondence section of the extension department of the University has received more than 700 requests this month for classified magazine literature on current topics. The majority of the requests have been for articles concerning the work of wounded soldiers. These requests have come mostly from club women and schools.
The correspondence section under the direction of Miss Katherine Fogarty classifies every month all current magazine and newspaper literature on questions of interest. This literature is covered over the state as requests come for it.
Until recently the department received free copies of all the best magazines but war conditions have caused this supply to be cut off. Since they cannot get the magazines from the library, the department has been hindered by a lack of material. If the fact is true and Studies who are some of the好 magazines would turn in their recent copies when they are through with them to the department these would be greatly appreciated.
Illinois was eliminated from the race in Big Ten basketball Monday night at Minneapolis when the Minnesota five doubled the score on them. Minnesota and Chicago are now tied for first place, neither team having lost a game.
The magazines that the department use most are the American, American School, Atlantic Monthly, Current Opinion, House Beautiful, Independent, Literary Digest, New York Times, Review of Reviews, School Arts Magazine, World's Work and Women's Home Companion.
Evans, star track man on last year's freshman team at Manhattan, will return to school the second semester,
according to word from Aggieville. Beatty, a star weight man, is lost to the team, however.
Schedule for Women's Basket Ball Announced
First Game to Be Played February 5 at 7:15 o'Clock in Robinson Gym
The first game of the girls inter-class basket ball games will be played in the gym February 5 at 7:15 o'clock according to announcement by Coach Hazel Pratt. Double headers will be played to enable all teams to play each night. Games will take place February 7 and February 13.
All students will be admitted with W. A. A. membership tickets and the admission for others will be twenty-five cents.
Men in officers training camps will probably be allowed eight hours toward graduation in the University of Ohio. The plan is being discussed now and may be adopted according to the Ohio State Lantern.
Eaters and What They Eat

"Mashed potatoes, escalled corn,
two rolls and a piece of pie. Nearly
all carbohydrates and no fresh vegetables

Then a poor unsuspecting medic, free for a few minutes from the laboratories, and hungry as a bear, steps in and chooses roast pork, macaroni and cheese, rolls, butter and pie in a microwave oven. He he did not notice the disapproving glances of the scientific young women sitting near.
That afternoon as he continued his work he could not dream that he was the subject of a talk before the class. "The idea of a man eating such a lunch. And a medicine at that. One could forgive a law or an engineer for such a crime, but never a medic. He ate twice as much as he needed, which wasn't so bad; but he ate twice as much as was good for him, which is mighty poor performance for a man studying medicine.

Highest Scholarship Made By Women And Non- Fraternity Men
Registrar Foster's Figures for 1917-18 Give Lead to Sorority Women
Students Get High Marks
Average for University is 69.6-
Delta Taus Have 79.6, Thetas
93.5, Phi Betaes 100
A study of scholarship in the University of Kansas, made for the academic year 1917-18 by Registrar George O. Foster, shows that women students, both sorority and non-sorority are above the University average. All the averages, adds Mr. Foster, are better than they were for the two preceding academic years for which computations were made.
Kappa Alpha Theta is the highest of the women's national sororities, with a percentage of 93.59, which is increased from 91.23 the year before. The past academic year, Delta Tau Delta led the men's nationals, with a percentage of 76.93, taking the leadership from the Acacia.
Percentages given in the table represent the relation of the hours of A's, B's, and C's made to the total number of hours carried by all the members of the organization or group. For example Phi Beta Kappa leads the honorary fraternities with a perfect score because none of its members fell below C grades.
Following are the figures for the various organizations;

"The Red Cross quota has been reached and we have gone over the top fifteen per cent," said Prof. U. G. Mitchell today.
He also remarked, "The last echo of the campaign has sounded and official closing of the subscriptions is over."
The quota for the University was $600. The amount raised is $898.90. This shows that the University can give and is giving said one of the faculties whom told that the amount totaled more than fifteen per cent above the quota.

Electricity Improves Farm Life In Kansas In Spite of the War
Prof. F. Ellis Johnson Reads Paper Before State Engineer ing Society
UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS, THURSDAY AFTERNOON, JANUARY 30. 1910
Topkea, Jan. 30—Electricity rapidly is making farm life more convenient in Kansas and despite the retarding influence of war on construction work the building of electric transmissions between Kansas towns has advanced greatly in the last few years. That was the subject of a report by F. Ellis Johnson to the Kansas Engineering Society at its eleventh annual meeting, which was begun today in Memorial Hall. One hundred and sixty-nine Kansas cities and towns are supplied by these transmission lines, and of this number 108 towns are less than 500 in population.
Neither these small towns nor the many farmers who buy electricity from these transmission lines, which total 1,763 miles of high voltage lines, would have the advantages of electric lighting and electricity for power, but for this new enterprising spirit of entrepreneurs of pedding electricity throughout the state in the last eight years.
"At present more than half the transmission companies supply some farm customers," said Mr. Johnson, who is a professor of electrical engineering at the University of Kansas.
"Only twenty-two of the towns enjoy electricity for lighting and jower had this convenience before building of these transmission lines. It is certain that electric power lines have come to play an important part in the development of communities of the state. "As professional men we should recognize that the engineering of these transmission lines is a technical problem, the happy outfee of which should be safe-guarded by a competent engineer and not, as is often the case, left wholly to the eager, enthusiastic hands of an over-optimistic promoter. The "opportunities" created here are actually common here in Kansas where the transmission line is at present very often a local enterprise and not that of a large company with its staff of experts, and when, too, real success may mean so very much to the community served and the neighboring communities as well."

Nearly Score of Yearlings Out for Signal Practice and Goal Shooting
Freshmen Basketers Givening Large Promise For Future of Game
The freshman basketball team this year promises to develop into one of the fastest first year teams Kansas has had in recent years, if early season form counts for anything. The yearlings squad is being coached by Jay Bond and more than fifteen men were on the floor last night, going through goal shooting and signal practice and helping put the varusity in shape for the coming series with Missouri.
The team includes men who have excellent high school and prep school reputations and several of the candidates should make good material for Coach Hamilton's variety five next year.
Turner at center is one of the strong cogs on the team and his years' experience at Kansas City Polytechnic Institute make him a very good player. He's good on the floor and at hitting the basket and gets his share of the tip-offs.
Wesley is one of the most,possining of the forwards and plays in floor well, besides having condeable ability as a goal shooter. I dry his running mate at forward, has had,a year's experience on the Wentworth Military Academy quintet and., although small, is one of the best scorers from the field on the squad. He played especially good basketball against the Varsity in the scrimmage Tuesday night.
A strong pair of guards are out for the team in Scoop Olson and Dan Harrison. Olson, Lawrence high school star, is probably one of the strongest men on the freshman defense and his size makes him a difficult barrier for the opposing forward to pass. Olson is also a good dribler and shoots more than 40 shots per game. A game. Harrison, the other guard, is a crack Wentworth man and should develop into a steady, reliable player. He plays a hard consistent game.
Among the other members of the squad, those who are showing good form in practice are Hower, a strong man at guard; Gross, guard; and Carlin and Stockland, forwards. These men have been used against the Varsity and have a good chance at regular positions on the team.
K.U. Graduate Writes From Sofia, Bulgaria
Professor Erasmus Haworth has received a letter from Borris J. Patchejeff of Sofia, Bulgaria, saying that he is well and might glide the war is over. He is very anxious to hear K. U. news.
Mr. Patcheljeff received his A. B.
and B. S. in 1910 and was granted
his mining engineer's degree in 1913.
The Phi Beta Kappa election will be held the first part of the third quarter. It has been customary to hold the second Phi Beta Kappa election the first part of the second semester but owing to the adoption of the three grade levels, it has been postponed until the grades of the second quarter are in.
Haley, with a four piece orchestra,
will furnish the music for the party.
There will be some new special jazz
music according to Haley, that has
not been heard in Lawrence. The
entertainment will consist of several
new features and stunts that will be
announced later.
Phi Beta Kappa Election To Be Held Last Quarter
The Journalism Jazz, the annual party of the department of Journalism, will be hold Friday night, March 7, in Robinson Gymnastics. This will be the first big party of the year and the first big party since the war began.
Journalism Jazz Date
Announced for March 7
This is the third annual dance given by the department of journalism. Every student in the department is proud of the reputation that those annual parties have created, accordingly, a celebration held in the news room this morning.
"This will be one good party from start to finish," said Fred Rigby, manager of the jazz, this morning. Tickets will be on sale Friday by Fred Rigby.
Student Directory Will Go To Press Monday,February
Additional Names May Be Telehoned to Marvin Harms Friday
"The 1919 Student Directory will go to press Monday, February 3," said Marvin Harms, who has charge of the printing of the directory for the Men's Student Council. Nearly 1000 names have been taken, but not all of the students have registered. Today only a few students any student who did not get his names in can telephone Marvin Harms at the Sigma Nu house at 1246 Oread.
"It is absolutely imperative that any student who wishes to keep in touch with the University and University affairs have his or her name in the student directory," said Harms. Another feature of the directory will be the listing of every organization on the campus. To be able to do this the president, secretaries, managers, advisers, or editors have been asked to get in touch with Mr. Harms by Saturday night. Every publication, club, society, fraternity, board, organization, etc., should take care of its share in putting out an accurate directory, and by getting in information about themselves they will be doing their share, said Harms.
The book will be in the form of a telephone directory, containing the telephone number, the full name of the student, his standing in the school, his home address, and his Lawrence address. There will be a complete list of the faculty and University employees with all telephone numbers listed, and where they can be found.
Price of the directory will not be more than 25 cents, and will be determined by the cost of the printing.
Students May Register Friday for Directory
About Half University Has Regi-
istered—No Charge is
Made
In order that every student may have his name in the student directory this year, the Men's Student Council will keep the registration booth open in Fraser Hall Friday from 8:30 to 10:30 o'clock and from 2:30 to 3:30 o'clock. This is done in order that the book will be finished and ready for the printer as soon as possible.
Over 1200 students enrolled Wednesday at the various booths. This is about half the number, and it is hoped that the extension of time for them will allow the others to get their names and addresses in the directory.
Each student fills out a blank containing the following: name, 'phone number, Lawrence street address, the city, state, zip code No. charge is made for enrollment.
Forher Professor Returns

Engineers Will Revise Service Flag at Once
The School of Engineering will revive its service flag immediately, Data is being gathered in Dean Shand's office, now. There is over 500 stars on the flag as it stands and it is expected that many more will be added when the investigation is complete.
There will be over twenty-five golstars on the revised flag. Men of the School of Engineering who were in Section A who died during the influenza epidemic here will have a gold star on the flag.
Plain Tales From the Hill
"Gee," said the professor, carried away by the beauty of the heavens, "I wish there was a law doing away with all lights on the campus."
HOW BEAUTIFUL ARE THE STARS!

The University Club is not what it is used to. The sunshine of their home has left them. Time was when all was gay. A certain professor lived among them kept the club in good spirits constantly. He taught them to sing at the table just if they weren't men of decorum who should know better. He was the life of the place.
Then his wife came from afar. All is now changed. The professor has no time for his former friends who had grown to depend on him for their joly evenings. The other professors go around with a helpless feeling for their friend is no longer there to cheer them, and when he comes over with his wife, he is not interested in his old associates. Ah! truly, the University Club is not what it used to be!

Dean G. C. Shaad Tells Kansas Engineers of War Training at K.U.
Certificates Issued to 957 Men Who Finished Intensive Courses
The Standards Are Rising
Education Means More Than Technical Training in Studies
War training in radio and practical mechanical courses at the University of Kansas was described by George C. Shaad, dean of the School of Engineering, in an address this afternoon at Toperka, at the eleventh annual meeting of the Kansas Engineering Society.
"Our first agreement," said Dean Shaad, was to take 250 men. The second contingent numbered 350, and the final contract called for three groups of 400 each before June, 1919. When work was stopped by the demobilization order we had issued 967 certificates. Most of these men had but a grade school education, but some were from the colleges.
"In the nation as a whole, about 40,000 men had been trained, the majority of them applying their special knowledge in army positions, and their 'job sheets' will prove the value of their intensive training given the men."
Taking up the more general phases of his subject, Dean Shaun said the engineering schools of the present would develop vocational ability, executive and administrative ability, and citizenship in its broad sense sense.
LONG TRAINING NOT NECESSARY
LONG TRAINING NOT NECESSARY
He pointed out that the first engineering school in the United States was the Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute at Troy, N. Y., and that by 1880 the high schools had increased to eighty-fifth. There are now 126 engineering schools of recognized standing in the United States, with approximately 33,000 students, who are being educated at an average cost of $350 a year. The standard course is now four years.
"A complete list," said Dean Shaad, "of trades for which men are being trained in the schools of the country is too long to be included in this paper." It is sufficient to say that the experience gained in the army vocational schools has led the engineering school to see the possibilities in short, intensive, specialized courses. Such courses will take a greater part in our educational system in the future. It has disproved the theory of the necessity of a long apprenticeship system for learning trades.
"The standard engineering course of four years is not likely to be materially changed in the near future. In this time the student is taught the rudiments of engineering work, the basis underlying engineering design and construction, and the 'core' of the course as it is called, consisting of mathematics, physics, chemistry and mechanics. In addition to these the student must be given enough of the applied engineering courses to show the connecting link between theory and practice.
BROAD TEAINING DESIRABLE
"Training beyond the four years of undergraduate work, especially in the details of engineering application, has been found so desirable that the larger employers of engineering talent have organized a definite line of work—practice schools, if you please, through which the young graduates pass before taking regular and responsible positions in the organizations.
"When all is said and done as regards methods of education as such, the fact remains that engineering knowledge and technical skill are but a small part of the requirements for a truly successful engineer. Qualities may be briefly recorded thus: Character, judgment, efficiency, understanding of men, knowledge, technique.
"A type of education which does not admit of the development of proper relations between individuals, and between men and the community in which they live, falls just that far short of the idea.
"I believe the recent war has been somewhat a test of good citizenship, and that the response of engineers, both graduate and undergraduate, for service shows that we are not too far astray in training our engineers as regards good citizenship."

HONOR SYSTEM PLANS
Perhaps one reason why the once popular population for open windows in class rooms is little heard of at the present time is the refusal of soldier-students who have recently returned from months of living in the open to allow conditions of ventilation to be what they formerly were.
A further step toward the institution of the honor system in class examinations at the University of Kansas was taken Tuesday when a meeting of men students voted in favor of its adoption. With the previous endorsement of the system in a meeting of women students, apparently the student body stands together in desiring the system.
Unfortunately, only a small percentage of the men of the University attended the meeting. Some absences are accounted for by conflicting duties, but in most cases, perhaps, the student was content to let others decide for him, though the matter be of great importance to himself. Although the meeting of the men was not the mass meeting it should have been, the results are taken as representative of the opinion of the majority of University men.
Adoption of the honor system will mean that each individual student will be responsible for his conduct in examinations. He will be placed on his honor as a man—or woman—to do the things that are right and just to himself and fellow students. According to the expression of student wishes, opinion should be so strong against dishonest practices that it well be detrimental to a person's reputation to ask for unfair help or give such aid in examinations.
The plan for carrying out the honor system, as suggested in the resolution adopted by the men, seem inadvisable. It was drawn up hastily and adopted without long and serious consideration of its possibilities. A more careful survey of different aspects of the plan would, no doubt, suggest improvements.
No necessity exists for the establishment of a new board, elected by the students, to have for its sole purpose the consideration of cases of students flagrantly unmindful of the ethical standards in quizzes. A commission from the two student governing associations, Men's Student Council and the Women's Student Government Association, could be appointed to look after such cases
Indeed, it is highly advisable and
certainly more practical to use such a commission instead of a separate joint board. The student councils are elected to be representative bodies, and in their capacity as governing boards rightly have jurisdiction over instances of cheating. A board from these associations wouldn't have the unwieldy character of a board having for its sole function adjudication of matters that would be brought up seldom.
The plan, however, was only suggested, and further action is essential before it can be declared adopted. More practical machinery for punishment of those who may abuse the privileges of the honor system may be devised, so that the benefits of the system will not be destroyed by inadvisable means of carrying it out.
The desperate student who has not studied for the quiz may get comfort from the recent head-line which said that "Congress Gropes in Dark."
COLLEGE WOMEN FARMERS
When the call to arms took many men from the forms, Dr. Ida H. Ogilvie of Barnard College organized seventy-five women into the first unit of what has since become the Woman's Land Army, established for the purpose of relieving the farm shortage.
Twenty thousand women last year devoted their time and services to helping the farmers in twenty-one states plant and harvest crops." The Department of Labor at Washington is urging that the work of the Women's Land Army be continued this year and that the organization be extended to other states. This is for the reason that the large occupation army now necessary will keep the men oversens and it is certain they will not be able to return in time to care for the crops this year.
Twenty million tons of food must be saved in 1919 to help feed the millions of persons in Europe and in order to save this amount for foreign consumption, the food must be produced and America must produce it. American women are being called upon and depended upon to see that a food shortage shall not exist.
Barnard College women were first in the ranks in the new army, and college women in twenty states soon followed.
The women in the University of Kansas may have an opportunity to enlist in this movement this year if Doctor Ogilvie's plans for establishing a unit in the state are carried out.
The preliminary training given the women enables them to do their work well. Doctor Olgivie says the health of every women who has entered the service of the land army has been improved.
The new organization, from the fact that it has brought together college women and women employed in the workday world, is called one of the greatest democratic movements ever started in this country. The common cause of service has broken down barriers erected by a false estimation of education.
Freshmen at Princeton are forced to wear black neck-ties and caps. A similar measure might improve the artistic ensemble on Mount Oread. It would at least eliminate the freshman who, of his own volition and without coercion, wear it bright green or red sweater.

Frieda Daun, A. B. '18, now city bacteriologist, Spokane, Wash. offers the following suggestions to students interested in an interest in diseases to enter as bacteriologists:
PLANING YOUR FUTURE?
Perhaps these former K. U
Students can help you
Are you interested in BACTERIOLOGY?
Physiology, chemistry, twenty hours, bacteriology, and some premedic work are essential in preparing for this work. More practical experience in medical training and in bacteriology than is now a part of the college curriculum is needed.
Salaries average from $1,200 to $1,800 for the beginner. They are practically the same as the teachers' in the West, but are better in the East.
Essential qualifications for this work are a liking for science, originality, self-confidence, and the ability to get along with one's associates.
Opportunities for bacteriologists are increasing. A graduate can usually get into such work through the bacteriology department.
Elizabeth Fleeson, A. B., '13, M. A.
'15, bacteriologist, Students' Hospital,
University of Minnesota, says;
Take practically the whole first two years of medicine.
The remuneration for work of this kind compares favorably with teachers' salaries, and, as nearly as I can find out, this work is far better paid. Women receive from $1,200 to $1,500 for their first year's work.
Annette Ashton, A. B., '77, city hathcortioriol. Wichita, advises:
Enroll in as much bacteriology chemistry and medical work as pos
Salaries will be from $100.00 to $175.00 a month for twelve months.
Essential personal qualifications are ability to work with people, ability to keep your head and ability to be sure of yourself.
The college courses necessary as a Preparation for this work are at least twenty-five hours of chemistry and fifteen hours of zoology and human
The number of openings for graduates is increasing. A graduate can get into this work by going back and taking one year in bacteriology.
Cora M. Downs, A. B. '15, instructor in the department of bacteriology, University of Kansas, offers the following:
Events unheeded in the large march of history, yet of extraordinary and moving significance, crowd one in these mad days of war.
Speaking of the part music was playing in war, a friend recalled this incident: He lives in a quiet little town near the Atlantic coast. Within a few miles is an encampment where soldiers from all over America are concentrated just before taking ship for France. There is, of course, careful military secrecy maintained. Few people know just when the regiments slip away in the darkness to embark for the great adventure.
Essential personal qualifications are initiative and plenty of energy.
Opening s in this work are increasing. Graduates are in many instances placed in hospitals and in private city is oratories.
OLD SONGS WITH NEW MEANING
One night, however, the friend was wakened by the dull sound of marching feet, along a dirt road. It was a breathless night; the song of a cricket and now again a whip-poorwill could be heard above the rhythmic beat of hundreds of young feet. Then, rising very gently to a full chorus a familiar song in tones so rich he knew it must be from a colored regiment:
"God be with you till we meet again!
The song rose and fell and died away as the sound of the marching feet grew remoter. He heard the crickets and the whippoorwill again, then from the camp beyond the town, soldier comrades, waked by the song ruilted.
By his counsel guide, uphold you;
With his sheep securely fold you;
God he with you till we meet again
We thought of this later in the year when crossing Lake Ontario. There were many Canadian officers and soldiers aboard, smoking and laughing on the after-deck. Some one started "Keep the Home Fires Burning," and a few men joined him. "The Long, Long Trail," but routed little interest. At last a tenor voice began: "Work, for the night is coming,
"God he with you till we meet again! When life's perils thick confound you Put his Arms unfalling round you; God he with you till we meet again." He did not sleep again, the incident so touched his imagination.
While their bright tints are glowing
Work's daylight flies.
Work, for daylight flies. Work till the last beam fadeth,
Under the sunset skies,
Work while the night is darkening.
When man's work is oder."
Before he had finished the third line, every officer and soldier in sight had joined him, and the song was repeated over and over until the landing was made on the Canadian side.

Plymouth Jottings
With this issue of the Kansan the Jottings come to an end for a little while. It would be fine to have a half column in every issue of the Kansan straight through the year. But churches like students have to watch their pocket-books. Allowances cannot be overdrawn or there is trouble.
We have tried to do one thing in this column. We tried to keep the name of Plymouth before K. U. Plymouth is an institution. It is the oldest church in the community. It stands definitely for freedom to think, for liberty of conscience, for all those rights which a man educated in our time holds dear. It stands also for service. It belongs to a fellowship that has been noteworthy in its contribution to the educational life of the nation, and to the social progress of humanity. Plymouth Church is simply one of the radiating centers of truth and goodness and beauty which make up the nexus of modern Congregationalism. And we call it Plymouth rather than the Congregational Church because we want to emphasize the fact that we put the Kingdom of God steadily above denominationalism. Loyal to our own fellowship we yet believe that there is a broader and a finer loyalty to be practiced in a day like this. Edith Cavell said, "Patriotismism is not enough." She was a true patriot. Every true church member sees these days that sectarianism is by no means enough.
In this column I have not hesitated to use the first person. It has been a sort of intimate chat with the readers of the Kansan. But Plymouth is not Plymouth's pastor - Plymouth is something for more than that. Pastors come and pastors go, Plymouth continues. This column sought simply to put before you some of the characteristic ideas of, Plymouth folks.
Yours very cordially.
ROSS W. SANDERSON,
Pastor of Plymouth.

The purpose of the meetings, is to interest and enlist the K. U. students in foreign missionary enterprises.
Lack of Funds May Mean No Kansas Chemallurgist
The question of whether or not the Kansas Chemallurgist will be published this year has not been decided definitely, according to Prof. F. B. Dains of the department of chemistry-Lack of funds may prevent the publication.
The Kansas Chemalurgist is an annual publication of the department of chemical engineering and the department of chemistry. It was founded in 1915 and was intended doubly as a scientific periodical and as a welding force for the auumni of these departments. Contributors to the magazine have included many prominent chemists and chemical engineers of the country.
The circulation is now about 1,200 copies, and copies are distributed gratuitously to all chemical alumni of the University. Prof. W. A. Whitaker was advisory editor last year, and S. F. Farley, e'18, and F. C. Walters, e'18, were student editors.

Matthews Is Elected Basket Ball Captain In Laslett's Place
Jayhawks Improve Goal Shooting Before Contests With Missouri
Kelsey Matthews, veteran center on the Jayhawk basketball team, was elected Wednesday night to be captain of the quintet this year in the absence of Scrubby Laslett, who was elected captain after the close of the season last year. Laslett is now in France with the tank corps. Matthews won his letter at center last year and was a member of the varsity squad the year before. He also played freshman basketball.
The varsity again went through a hard scrimmage with the freshmen Wednesday night and the men are in shape for the Missouri series. The team will rest tonight and be ready for the opening of the Missouri Valley season at home Friday and Saturday.
The Jayhawkers are improving their goal shooting and with a fair share of the breaks in their favor, will give the Tigers a pair of real battles. In the Baker game last Friday, the breaks went against the Jayhawkers and several times when easy
goals were in sight, the ball hit the hoop, rolled around it and then fell out. Lonborg was especially unucky in this respect, Miller, who was not used in the Baker game, is one of the best goal shooters on the team and he will probably be used a part of the time against Missouri. Bunn, Lonborg and Harms are the other forwards.
Bennett and Mason, varsity guards, will have a real test in handling the Tiger forwards, as Ruhy is an All-Valley man of last year who showed especially good basketball against Kansas, and Scott, the other forward, is almost as strong on the offensive as the captain. The heaviest scorer on the Missouri team, however, is Vogt, the center who was a later scorer. Vort is a fair floor man and a deadly goal shooter, the records showing that he secrated fourteen field goals against Westminster college last week.
The Tiger guards are new men and if the scoring end of the Kansas five works in form, the Missouri defense is likely to have trouble. Kansas plays a combination of the long and short passing game while the Tigers use mostly short passes, and the contexts promise to be hard fights from start to finish.

All members of the Students' Army Training Corps who continued in college without interruption and all students who entered the service or engaged in war work will be eligible for competition in intercollegiate athletic contests this year.
Recommendations to this effect were adopted by the executive committee of the Intercollegiate Association of Amateur Athletes of America. These will be presented to the annual convention of that organization, which will be held at the Columbia University Club March 1.
two stipulations were made, however, one of which was that the men discharged prior to that date should have reported back to their universities by January 6, and the other to April 1, so that they would back in college within three weeks after their discharge or resignation, but not later than April 1.

The Jayhawker basketball team is ready for the opening of the Missouri Valley season in Robinson Gymnasium tonight at 7:30, when the Missouri Tigers, undefeated, invade Lawrence for the first game of a two-game series.
The Kansas quintet rested Thursday night and every man on the squad is in good condition for the Missouri games. The Jayhawkers are making no promises as to the outcome of the contests, except that they are going to fight hard to win both games.
MISSOURI HAS PERFECT SCORE
NUMBER 69
MISSOURI HAS PERFECT SCORE
Missouri comes here with a perfect record, having won four Valley games and lost none. The Tigers scored the Ames five in a pair of games on the Columbia court, week before Kansas played the Iowans at Atmos. Missouri had a margin of about ten points in each of the Ames games. A latter, they won two games from Coach Rutherford's Washington University Pikers with ease and last week they played a practice game with Westminster College and won by uplining more than sixty points.
KANSAS IN GOOD FORM
Craig Ruby is the individual star of the Missouri team because of his steadiness and excellent floor work, although both Scott, the other forward, and Vogt, center, are good goal shooters. Browning and Schroeder have had basket and point appearances at Missouri but have not had as much experience of the other members of Browning's regular position is forward, but he was shifted to guard this year. Coffey is the extra guard on the Tiger squad.
Word comes from Columbia that Coach Miller believes he has one of the best teams turned out in Missouri in years, but if Kansas plays true to form, the Tigers are going to strike opposition tonight such as they have never met with before this season. With the Jayhawks playing passing and accurate and shooting games played when they game Ames under fifty points last week, Missouri will have a real battle on her hands tonight.
The promise that Ernst Quigley, National League baseball empire and dean of basketball referees in the Missouri Valley, will officiate, makes it certain that the game will be fast and clean, as Quigley has a reputation of being one of the best officials in the west. Quigley is now coaching St. Louis University athletic teams.

Iphigenia Revives Art of Ancient Dramatist
Greek Play Being Placed on Business Basis By Modern Ticket Sellers
Tickets for the Iphigenia by Euripides, which will be presented in Fraser Hall the night of February 6, were put on sale this morning at the business office in Fraser Hall and at McCullough's Drug Store down town. The Greek drama will be presented to the students of the University and the people of Lawrence by Misa Doree. The movie will feature aress who is making a tour of the United States before her return to England.
Miss Hearty Brown, is in charge of the sale of the tickets and has a large committee of student salesmen working under her direction. The play is being given under the direction of the Association of College Alumni.
UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS, FRIDAY AFTERNOON, JANUARY 31, 1910.
"The practical purpose of having the play produced at the University is to increase the fund for the scholarship which the association offers every year to the University students," said Mrs. P. B. Dains, president of the association, "but the most important is that it is the students of the university an opportunity to see Miss Spinney in the production."
Miss Spinney will be the guest of miss Margaret Lymn, during her visit la Lawrence. Miss Spinney is ac ticipant in a celebration of Miss Alice Michaelia, of Australia.
"For real appreciation of the Curipides, one turns with relief to Suripides, one turns with relief to ier character drawing is her treatment of the impersonal chorus with its delicate suggestion of rythmic notion. It has the simplicity of ruth."
Miss Spinney has won a national reputation in her short stay in America. In the "Nation," the following drama of the ancient drama is published:

Basket Ball Matches For Women's Classes Begin Wednesday Night
Preliminary Games Between Sophs and Frost, and Seniors and Juniors
The first round of the Fourth Annual Inter-Class Basket Ball Tournament for women, will be played in Robinson Gymnasium next Wednesday night at 7 o'clock. The freshmen meet the sophomores, and juniors the seniors.
The line-ups have not been chosen and will probably be announced before the game. The teams have been practising every day for over two weeks, and it is reported that the juniors have been showing up exceptionally well.
"The games should be very inter-tering," said Miss Hazel Pratt, basket ball coach, "as the women have been playing exceptionally well in practices. This is only the first round, however. The second round will be February 7, when the sophomores play the seniors, and the freshman play the juniors. The finals will be February 13, when the sophomores will meet the juniors, and the freshmen will meet the seniors."
There is a new cup up this year, as here is the year, given by the Athlete.
Miss Ruth Endacott, c18, and now an instructor in the physiology department, will act as referee. She played guard on the winning team each year the last four years, but the tournament has been on for the last three years only. The team she has played on was never defeated.
The admission to the games is a W A.A. ticket or twenty-five cents. It is not open to the public in general and it is not permitted by the invitation of a W A.A. woman.
Kills Bill to Make Greeks Pay for Fire Protection
Lower House Puts Skids Under Another Measure by Elmer E. Brown
The bill was not for K. U. fraternities alone, but applied to all such organizations in the state.
A bill to charge fraternities and sororites for runs made by the fire department to fraternity houses has been defeated in the House of Representatives of the Kansas Legislature. It was introduced by Elmer E. Brown of Douglas County, author of the bill to tax fraternity property, which was killed in the House Tuesday. The bill provided that claims for fire protection would stand as allies against property of fraternities.
In a speech by Representative Carvin of Stafford County, as quoted by the Topeka State Journal, we find the following assertion, "If Lawrence can't figure to meet some of these expenses as a result of the benefits which the State University brings the town, I know Stafford County will be mighty glad to build the sorority and fraternity houses, give them to the boys and girls, and maintain the buildings free from taxation or expense for fire protection if you will send the University to our county."
Offered Summer Position
Prof. H. B. Hungerford of the department, Entomology has been offered a summer field station in the Biological Field Station of the University of Michigan. Professor Hungerford was unable to accept this position because he had arranged to teach in summer school here next summer.
Sour Owl Will Appear
First Week in March
Magazine Wants Contributions From Entire Student
The Sour Owl, humor magazine published by the Owls, the junior honor society, will be put out in the first week in March, according to information given the Kansan today. The det dat, it was said, has not been set.
This will be the first issue of the Sour Owl this year. Absence of members of the society in military service prevented issuing it the first quarter. The Owl in former years has put out several times during the year.
"Contributions to the Sour Owl will be open to the entire University," Luther Hangen, editor of the publication, said today. "We want to urge students to write for the magazine, and expect that a large amount of snappy material will be turned in by persons outside the society. Arrangements will be made for a place to turn in all copy.
"What we want chiefly is original jokes, the short, peppy, conversational type. Many of these jokes can be illustrated by cartoons. A few moderately long humorous or satirical articles will be accepted but such articles are best suited if limited to a paragraph or two.
"Illustrations for the cover will be considered, and the best picked out and used. They must be attractive and useful in a page of about seven by nine inches.
"All contributors to the Sour Owl, whether of jokes, cartoons, long articles, or cover illustrations, who have their material accepted, will be placed on the contributing staff of the magazine. Their names will appear on this stuff rather than with separate jokes and articles."
The board of managers of the Sour Owl is as follows: Editor, Luther Hangen; business manager, Glen Banker; assistant editor, Floyd Harms; associate editor, Floyd Hockenhull; advertising manager, Basil Church; art editor, Froed Leach.
Snapshot Editors Want Donations for Jayhawker
Another call for snapshots for the 1919 Jayhawker has been issued by the book, Mr. Hopfer, snapshot editor of the book, Mr. Hopfer said, "I would like to get some good individual pictures of students, athletic pictures, and snappy unusual pictures. I have a good number of S. A. T. picture books that I'm going to write before Christmas. That is why I need pictures of the school activities that have been going on since the now semester."
Class and Organization Pictures Should Be Turned In as Soon as Possible
The mail box just outside the door of the Jayhawk office will accept all contributions in the way of snaps for the 1919 Jayhawk.
Because of the large number of pages that the S. A. T. C. section will take, the space for class pictures has been limited. Luther Hangen is editor of the Junior section, and Roland Hill has charge of the sophomore section. Letters are being sent out to the students in these classes, and it is urged that they make dates for sitings at once so that the glasses can be in the hands of the editors by February 15, which is the deadline for all Jayahawk pictures, whether snapshots, organization groups, senior, junior, or sophomore pictures.
Harley Scott, editor of the S. A. T. C. section said, "It is absolutely necessary that all write-ups on the different companies be in to me not later than February 3, as the S. A. T. C. section is about ready for the engravers and printers. We cannot hold this section any longer, so all material that is not in by February 3, will not be used."
The Freshwater University Sunday School will entertain its members and friends Friday evening at Westminster, the program of games and refreshments.
Dance Prices not Fixed Yet
Nothing definite has been decided about fixing the price of admission to the Junior Prom Soph Hop, Law Scrim or Beauty Ball by the University memorial hall. "But action will probably be taken by the University senate at the next meeting on February 4.
All University Party Not Given This Year
"The All-University party which is usually held on Washington's birthday will not be given this year." Miss Corbin said this morning.
The adviser of women and repre sentatives of both men's and women's councils had begun to make plans for the party. Ray Hemphill had been made general manager and the necessary committees had been appointed. It appeared later that the party had to be given up on account of lack of funds in the University. "The custom of the All-University Colonial party will undoubtedly be continued next year," said Miss Corbin.
Plain Tales From the Hill
LAWS BECOME BEAUTY CRITICS
The Senior Laws, looking over the women of the University from their observatory at Green Hall say that the women are becoming inferior in appearance, so maybe so, but the senior woman who have also been here four year speak thusly about the senior laws.
"In the years past women were known to go blocks out of the way merely to go past the law school, where they could gaze on the gratifying spectacle of the law students Now they never think about looking up when they are forced to pass by.
"Women do have a more worries look this year than ever before. Time was when the law students took the responsibility for the school affairs. Now they pass resolutions that any teacher who does not naturally maneuver naturally have to take the responsibility and thus have less time to spend on their looks."
"Laws? Oh they're the scum of the earth."
"Insignificant."
There are two sides to every question.
"Low creatures, morally, mentall and physically."
Ray Bennett and Heinie Olschinger came over to the library last night and posted themselves at the stacks in the back of the library. Evidently they couldn't find what they were looking for. They took down one book, looked all the way through it hastily, scowled and took down another. They must have met at the location before they last located what they were looking for—two girls seated at the far end of the library—and left.
"Look up all you can about Euri nides."
These instructions and nothing more were given to an innocent looking freshman the other day. He immediately went pouring over the files at Snow library to find out what kind of a biological specimen the Euripides was.
WE ARE SO GLAD YOU ENJOYED YOUR
"I enjoyed myself so much."
Gentlemen! when you haven't anything else to do, sit down and count up how many times you have said this in the last week on the calls you have made. If you want to relieve the monotony, think up something new.
"I really enjoyed you much more than I enjoyed myself."
"I'll never forget those eyes."
"I've had a delicious time."
"The quality of your dancing is superb."
Or be absolutely frank and say,
"It would have cost me a dollar if I
had stayed away, but now that I have
been well paid it would have been
worth the price."
It is F. Ellis Johnson, if you mean the professor at the Engineering school. Professor Johnson sent word over to the 'Kansan office to please not refer to him as F. E. Johnson hereafter. If we didn't know the circumstances we might think that he was overly particular about his name. However, Professor Johnson was once funked out of school for receiving a dose of beer and a case of whisky addressed to some F. E. Johnson that he knows nothing about. No wonder he clings to the name Ellis.
The girls at the door said that there was no such place around but she imisted that someone had directed her to the Fire-side house to see Mrs. Thompson the cook. Then the Mu Phis fell. Mrs. Thompson is the Pbi Pai cook.
SOUNDS LIKE AN OLD LADIES HOME
The Mu Phi were startled the other afternoon by having an old negro dinner with a chef. "Is this here the Fire-side home?"
Right of Free Speech Reaffirmed in Meeting Of the Woman's Forum
Organization Resents Criticism of Its Constitutional Policy
Speakers to Express Idea
Clash of Opinion Necessary to Development of Broad-mindedness
"The Woman's Forum is for free speech and argument," said France Hitchock, president of the Forum, in speaking today of the resolutions adopted unanimously by that organization yesterday. "It is the policy of speakers on both sides of a question; otherwise it is not open minded."
"It is one of Roosevelt's own prin-
ciples of free speech, and Roosevelt:
would have been one of the first to ac-
cuse the same manner as we have in this
natter," is the opinion of Mable Mac-
kinten, secretary of the organization.
The resolutions are:

Wilson Leader of Liberals
Peace Conference Focus of All Reactionary and Progressive Influences
"Watch the Peace Conference," was the title of Prof. D. L. Patterson's address before the Forum Thursday afternoon.
"The Peace Conference is worth watching," he said. "First because it is the greatest peace conference ever held in history; secondly, it is the focus of all reactionary and liberal influences struggling for world conformation." He added that a leader so powerful and skillful as President Wilson."
Professor Patterson indicated four ways in which privileged interests are trying to block the Wilson program. These were: opposition to his trip to the peace conference; opposition to 'open diplomacy'; opposition to the League of Nations; hostility toward the Russian socialistic republic.
"President Wilson has made a success of the first three," said Professor Patterson, "as he predicted that the Conference would end in a victory for liberalism throughout the world. Russia has been at work for eighteen months under the Lenne constitution, and the Russian people appear to be satisfied with it. We should, therefore, aid them, and sympathize with them, rather than oppose their plans is this time."
The speaker also advocated the observation, after President Wilson's return to this country, of a League of Nations Day—a world-wide event to mark this significant turning point in the world's history.

BETTER SCHOLARSHIP
Students of the University of Kansas have been doing better work in classes as shown by the higher average of grades found in computations by George O. Foster, registrar of the University.
His report shows the average scholastic standing was higher for the academic year, 1917-1918, than in preceding years, and the different organizations, classes, and groups of students had better averages in grades.
The average for the University a whole was practically every per
The students were able to increase our scholarship in spite of the unattied and abnormal conditions of a year is indeed highly creditable.
whole was practically seventy per cent. This does not mean that seven was the average of all grades of students. What the figure indicates is the percentage of A's, B's, and C's found in the total grades of the University.
The plan followed in computing the averages was to add the total number of hours of each grade made by numbers of the group under consideration and using the percentage of the three highest grades in relation to this total as the ranking of the group.
The increase in scholarship averages of the University as a unit, while not great, indicates that the men and women were able to overcome the handicaps of diverting influences.
It is not surprising that only sixteen students have tried out for the debating squad. Most of the men exhausted their powers of argumentation earlier in the year, securing week-end passes from unpitying officers.
MEN WHO KNOW
With University men at the head of the ways and means committees of both houses of the Kansas Legislature, educational interests as affected by those committees ought to be well guarded. Walter E. Wilson, chairman of the ways and means committee in the Senate, was graduated from the School of Pharmacy at the University of Kansas in 1893, and Lacey Simpson, chairman of the corresponding committee in the House of Representatives, attended the College
of Liberal Arts for three years, from 1896 to 1899.
Their efforts will not of course, be for the University of Kansas in particular, but for all the state institutions. The important thing is that men who understand the value of the schools and can appreciate their needs are in positions of influence and responsibility. They are business men who appreciate the work of the present business manager for state institutions. They will support Mr. James A. Kimball's recommendations because they know that he has recommended only what the institutions must have in order to meet the needs of the state.
Mr. Wilson and Mr. Simpson are the right men in the right places.
Seniors at the University of Oregon are required to grow mustaches beginning this week, in accordance with their ancient custom. This causes the observing student to marvel at the scarcity of these adornments at the University of Kansas this year, and to offer the warmth of the winter as the reason for their unpopularity.
NEED GENERAL MEETINGS
About the first never-to-befogether-day of the average freshman's life is the day when he attended his first convocation. It was there that he learned how the "Rock Chalk" is really given and there too he learned the engineer's falsetto version of "We are the K. U. Laws." The old school seemed like one big family then and the newcomer was glad to be a part of it.
A few weeks later the yearling attended his first All-University party at the gymnasium and learned how the University folk get acquainted. Money and dates were unnecessary. The affair was just general good time without much formality.
It is greatly to be regretted that these formerly well-established meetings have been abandoned. Now that the abnormal war times are at an end the usual convocations and parties should by all means be restored. Speakers and lecturers of nationwide prominence can be secured for convocations, and ALL-University parties can be resumed with little effort.
With the coming of peace, the watchword of every community and institution is reorganization. Due to war conditions many older students were forced to leave the University and their place has been taken by an inflow of younger men and women who generally are without college experience. Disorganization and lack of unity in the University at the present time is noticeable. A remedy which would greatly reorganize the students both in the individual schools and in the University as a whole is the revival of All-University parties and convocations.
The average cost to each student or an hour's instruction in the class room is one dollar. Think twice, brilliant student, before you sleep through the next recitation hour.
If Holland continues to be a refuge of deposed monarchs, King Alcohol seems likely to be the next resident.
The insistently practical man is an unconscious idealist. His idea is action.
The sternest iconoclast is an idealist. He wants to realize simplicity.
WE'RE ALL IDEALISTS
Ideals impractical in one stage of human development become the realization of later generations.
Sneers at idealists and idealism are wasted. They are too often self-
ondemnations.
Ideals are the oars of progress.
The higher the ideal the nobler the
society.
The Great War was a class of ideals as truly as it was, conflict of men. The higher ideals won. They always win.
Ideals: create enthusiasts. Thrice armed is he who has enthusia.
A pessimist is a man who believes that it will take centuries for the world to recover from the blow to civilization; and an optimist is a man who retails that there will be plenty of centuries—Rochester Post-Express.

What troubles the University this year? We had a basketball game last week but none of the old time yelling. We had a beauty contest last week but none of the old time interest. Is K. U. coming back to normal in college through the University of Kansas were going backward in many respects.
Editor Kansan:
When Kansas plays the Missouri Tigers here this week the students should give the team their support and fight with the team. It is said that Kansas players inconsistent basket ball. If everyone would get behind the team, that might be eliminated. A fighting team always makes a good account of itself, and a fighting crowd will make a team that plays inconsistent ball fight all of the way through the game.

"And He came to Capernaum and being in the house He asked them what was it that ye disputed among yourselves by the way? But they held their peace for by the way they had disputed among themselves who should be the greatest. And he sat down and looked at them, and said to them: "If one man desire to be first, the same shall be last of all and servant of all."
By Mary Samson.
You can't climb up in the world by knocking other people down.
It isn't the man who lies awake nights planning to get ahead of the others who is honored with the position of leader among men. It is the man who, by unsafishness and willingness to help those who need help, even when it is inconvenient for him, has proved himself big enough for the job.
If you want to be truly great, remember that all the great men and women in history are remembered for the work they have done for others. The lives of Abraham Lincoln, Jane Addams, and the supreme example, Jesus Christ, prove that they were the greatest people whether they were the greatest people of their age. They were too busy working for others.
Try to take others with you in your struggle for the heights, and to your surprise they will not hinder you, but will boost you along.

Athletes Will Receive Letters and Sweaters For Two Year's Work
Not Given Last Year Because Athletic Council Was Disorganized
Letters and sweaters for football, basketball, baseball, track and tennis will be given by the University of Kansas to men who won them last year or this year just as they have been given to K. U. athletes in formation made by a statement made by Athletic Manager W. O. Hamilton today.
"There have been rumors on the campus that the custom of giving letters in K. U. athletics had been discontinued," said Manager Hamilton today, "but there is no truth in any of them. Sweaters were not awarded last year because the athletic council was split up and many of the members were not in school, but the matter will be taken up in a short time and the awards made." It was an impossibility to have sweathers made during the war with the service stripes woven into the sleeves but they can be obtained now and will be ordered as soon as the athletic board officially awards them, Manager Hamilton said.

Mademoiselle Clement is a noted educator, lecturer and journalist, and has long been recognized as having a valued influence upon public opinion in France. She's for many years been actively interested in furthering a fuller understanding and richer exchange of benefits between France and America. She says that this union can be better accomplished through direct communication with the people rather than through the ambassadors, and has therefore been willing to devote a great part of her time to giving lectures throughout the United States.

Princeton May Become National University Proposes Dr. Hibben
Harvard Boasts Students From Japan and Oceanica
Plans for making Princeton a great national university, with adequate representation from every State in the Union, were discussed in the New York Evening Post Friday. The president of the proposition says, "Scholarships are prominent among the things that will help students to enter."
He also says, "We have many magazines which by title or sub-title claim to be "American" or "National" in some peculiar manner denied to their rivals, but our universities have hitherto thought modesty the better part of valor, and even while encouraging students from all sections to enter their gates, none of them has formally assumed to have a place in the sum larger than that of any other of their size, endowment, etc."
There has been one persistent effort for a "National" university. This was to be a new institution, located at Washington, where it would have advantage of Government institutions, as the Library of Congress, and particularly the prestige of being in the national capital.
Harvard boasts students, not only from Canada and South America, but also from Japan and Oceanica. In a year or two she will let it be known that candidates for the freshman class from Czecho-Slovakia and Jugo-Slavia have passed the entrance examinations. Harvard is not alone in this distinction for Columbia has allowed students from all over the world to enrol in college. But the only exception is not too new or too far inland to have undergraduates the pronunciation of whose names passes all understanding.
"Visitors from abroad hardly believe in our chain of State Universities until they have seen them. The University of Maine, the University of Illinois, the University of Kansas, the University of Oklahoma, the University of California,—are these actually in being or only the dreams of a nation of dreamers?" said Professor Hibben.
Concerning Professor Hibben's proposition, the New York Post continues to say, "Princeton it not the only institution to realize the advantage, if not indeed the necessity, of enlisting all parts of the country under her banner."
The New York Evening Post remarks, "The Great American University is as Mythical as the Great American Novel. The longer we have to wait for it, the less confidently do we expect it. But that is no reason for not making our universities more national than they are now"
The paper also says, "more than one Eastern university president has as the first item on his annual schedule, we carry out our Western and Southern alumni."
The paper proposes that although the University of Princeton cannot be made a National University it can be made more national in its work.

Women Confuse Browns, Burt E. Brown Asserts
Elmer E. Brown and Bert E.
Brown not
Related
Kansas being a state where a woman is considered better than a man, except at the polls, where she is just as good. Burt E Brown of Lawrence is being considerably disturbed over the fact that University women are confusing him with Elmer E. Brown, of near Lawrence.
"I'm not Elmer E. Brown," said Burt E. Brown today. I'm Burt E. Brown. Neither am I a member of the lower house of the state legislature. Elmer E. Brown is the solon Brown. Elmer E. Brown is the father of the proposed bill to tax fraternities and sororities that was killed this week in the lower house. Burt E. Brown didn't have anything to do with that scheme and Burt E. Brown isn't overjoyed to hear that University women are referring to him as "Old Burt Brown who tried to tax us out of existence." They've got their Browns mixed.
"Burt E. Brown doesn't believe Burt E. Brown should have to stand for any of Elmer E. Brown's shortcomings or should have an honorable mention that may be coming to Elmer E. Brown, or vice versa. Burt E. Brown is not related to Elmer E. Brown. They do not belong to the same church, the same lodge or the same political party.
"University men seem to have the Brown's on straight. It's the women who are worrying Burt E. Brown by mistaking Burt E. Brown for Elmer E. Brown. Burt E. Brown has two daughters in the University and for that reason don't care to be confused with Elmer E. Brown, in addition to opposing Elmer E. Brown's notion of picking out one form of organization and trying to tax it while other similar organizations are not taxed. Burt E. Brown wants to see University sororities and fraternities taxed at the same time that the Masons, the Knights of Columbus and other benevolent orders are taxed, but not until then."
Track Team Needs Men For Half and Two Mile
"We need more men in the half mite and the two mile races," said Paul Murphy, who has charge of the runners at K.U. "Several of the good men in the University have not turned out for track. We need Simons, Duff and Russell out regularly." Simons, Duff and Russell are all good track men but are indifferent about coming out for the team.
Dorman O'Leary came out for practice Wednesday for the first time this season and will be captain of this year's team. It was reported that the star was giving all his attention to his academic work and did not have time for track. O'Leary has always been one of the best students on the team since he has been on the squad. He will greatly strengthen the team. Rodkey, Dewall and Haddock are the other letter men in school.

Fine Arts School Elects Officers and Councilmen
Both Departments Equally Represented on Board to Prevent Factions
The organization of the School of Fine Arts is nearly completed. At a recent meeting of the students a plan of organization was adopted. Two presidents were elected to prevent domination by either section of the school.
Miriam Merritt, fa'19, is president from the department of music; and Gertrude Doyle, fa'19, from the department of painting. Mary Tudor, fa'20, of the department of painting was elected secretary; and Laura Jackman, fa'20, of the department of music, was elected treasurer.
The governing council of the school will be composed of these officers from the two departments and of underclass representatives from both departments, making in all, ten members. Thelma Hale is sophomore representative from the deartment of music.
"The council plans to give several parties during the rest of the year," said Miriam Merritt, this morning. "We will probably have a Fine Arts banquet and a Fine Arts dance. And if we can arrange it we want some informal parties and picnics."
Lucile Phinney was elected to represent the department of public school music. The freshman classes and the students must select their members for the council.
Get Petitions for Exemption
The department of physical education has received a number of petitions for exemption from gymnasium work for this quarter, according to W. O. Hamilton, manager of K. U. athletics, but these petitions will not be acted upon until the middle part of next week by the exemption board. Many of these petitions ask exemption because of outside work and some give physical disability as the cause of their inability to take gym this quarter.
