Professor Haworth will speak in chapel.
The resolution passed by the athletic board favoring the playing of the Thanksgiving game on University grounds will find hearty endorsements among the students. While the sentiment here is not in favor of going to St. Joseph for the first game, still if that is the best that can be done the student body will sanction the move. It is, and has been the general opinion all along that the game would be played in Kansas City and the city on the Kaw seems to have the same impression. But now there seems to be some ground for the belief that all the talk of not playing the game in Kansas City is not entirely "bluff." The students of Kansas University do not want the game to go to Kansas City unless it offers as good a proposition as other places. The game is worth enough to make it worth while for a city to seek the game, rather than the universities beg for a place to play the game.
Every loyal student of the University who finds it possible to do so should turn out to the band party next Friday night. The cause for which the party is given—that of raising funds to purchase uniforms for the new members of the band—is one worth the support of the students.
Under the direction of J. C. McCanles the University has the best band this year it has had for a long time. The first two or three appearances of the band has made it evident that
when the band goes to other towns it will not be" roasted."
Afterthoughts
There are no knockers at M. S.U. They are all back of the weakest team M. S.U. ever put out and expect to win all their games by hot air.
Nebraska is getting ready to pull out a few Jayhawker tail feathers.
Tub isn't so fast, to be sure but it takes six men to tackle him.
We had no idea that there were as many plutocrats in K. U. as lined up on the 15 cent bleachers Saturday.
Some pledges have advanced theories at variance with Professor Schwegler on the reasons why men become "flattened."
Let's hope that Tub will never have to be carried off the field.
"Now I am mad," said a little freshman Saturday. "There I took my registration card out and they wouldn't punch it at all. Just laughed at me."
The opera chorus this year will have to practice "Patience" if they make it a success.
"Et tu Brute" was the prophetic cry of the Kansan repor-
Men who are posted say We've the best Clothing in town.
Ask any of the good dressers you meet anywhere.
If it's a Suit or Overcoat, there will be just the right number of buttons on the Coat—just the right roll on the lapel—Coat the right length—just the correct shape to the Trousers, etc., etc.,
Any particularly nice thing you want to wear you'll be apt to find here. It will be right, too.
You'll find that they always favor this store.
The price of the Suit will be just right, also.
In short, this is a just right Clothing House.

The band is a grand and patriotic institution, one of which the University is justly proud. But it's quite as well not to live too close to the individual members.
The report is being circulated today that Eudora has instructed a committee of the commercial club to do everything in their power to land the Thanksgiving football game.
No, Doubtful One, when Professor Schwegler said that the round man is the highest type of man, he didn't mean at all that the "rounder" is the highest type.
If the question of the location of the Thanksgiving game were left to a vote of the students, we wonder what the result would be.

Uncle Sam After Grafters.
Prof. P. F. Walker, of the Engineering school, has been testing the Meyers Automatic Pumping System which has been held up by the post office department in Kansas City. The pump is run by a spring which is supposed to be wound up by a boy of eighteen years in fifteen minutes and pump all day. The pump works by clock work. United States Marshall H. S. McCowan is conducting the experiments. The pump was found to have an efficiency of about five per cent. of what it was claimed to have.
The automatic company has sold $60,000 worth of county rights and it looks as though the managers of the company would be invited to spend a few years at Leavenworth with free board and rooms. Prof. P. F. Walker made experiments in Fowler Shop.
Pure Food Law Hard to Enforce.
At the meeting of the Chemical Club Thursday afternoon Dr. Sayre spoke on "Some Unforeseen Problems Connected with the Pure Food and Drugs Law." He showed that in the execution of the law a great number of unanticipated problems had arisen, calling for the attention of experts.
