MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 16.
The Chancellor takes this opportunity offered by the Kansan to extend a cordial greeting to the students, both old and new, who will be at the University of Kansas during the coming year. He hopes they will render all the assistance in their power toward making this the best year in the history of the University, and to that end he expects them to stand for the highest and best things in university life. The University is now large enough so that the matter of size need call for no special concern; what is needed now is a higher ideal as to the importance and continuity of university work and the moral and spiritual standards of our community life.
THE CHANCELLOR.
Fatherly advice is always trite. The gratuity that prompts it is usually wasted on the ungrateful receiptents. But those who are entering the University for the first time, listen: You are sent here for purposes greatly different from what your inclinations tempt you to pursue. Next Monday when classes begin, Freshmen, you should begin—and don't let up. Ninety out of every hundred who find failure the sequel to the their brief college career fix their destiny the first few months of school. Keep before you the picture of the delinquent returning home at the end of the first term—a failure in the first struggle of life. Attend your classes and keep up your work for the first month and the habit will be formed and many an hour of despondency at the close of the first term will be avoided.
Students can stand a trust on most things but when the livery men want to monopolize such a necessity as cabs it is indeed time someone is shouting "hold, enough." It is not known whether or not the Attorney General and county attorney have a son or daughter in the University, but anyway their action in "busting" the trust put their names along side the greatest "trust-busters" of the age.
One freshman says he has already promised his laundry to nine different firms,has subscribed for seven papers,has engaged board at eight clubs,
and all before he got away from the depot.
There were several hundred students who went boating on the river this summer without getting wet, but three or four professors got off dry land and the bunch got ducked.
Willis Carruthers, A.B. '06 who has held the position of principal in the Holton high school the past year, was recently elected by the Leavenworth high school board to a Latin professorship.

THE NEW COLLEGE CLOTHES INNOVATIONS
The decidedly new development in "College Brand" Suits for this season are responsible in the styles that're most pleasing to ultra-smart dressers. These innovations in fabrics and styles are shown in many odd contrivances, also pockets and buttons, and oddities in sleeves are noted. The effects obtained are such as for everyone to wear to advantage a tailored suit if he so desires.
