With this issue of the Kansan the present editor will conclude his management of the University paper. During the term since last March we have tried to maintain the reputation of the Kansan as a strictly nonpartisan paper, to build up the various departments of the University and the organization of the students by praise where we felt such was merited and by criticism where we believed such would tend toward betterment. The former was a duty easy to perform, but the latter, equally a duty, was not done without a degree of anxiety. We have enjoyed the work and the praise, and when censure came we listened with as much consideration as the case would admit of. At times our issues have come out late and other times early, these conditions depending upon our ability to get the news ready for the press. In resigning the position as editor the hardest problem is to await the reports of our readers. Heretofore we have had them at our mercy in a way, but now they can say their say. The editor wants to thank all the subscribers for their forbearance at times of disapproval, and also, he wants to thank the Kansan staff for their hearty cooperation in getting out each issue. We are now ready to rest our case. And now for Missouri. The waning football spirit that has come as a result of the last two defeats should be thrown away and the University should present a united front to our ancient opponents. The idea of Missouri ever beating Kansas at football has perhaps never seriously disturbed the slumbers of a Jayhawker, but Missouri has been playing a good game this year and Kansas has suffered some severe defeats. All the signs do not point to a certain victory. If Kansas can give Missouri a good drubbing Thanksgiving day it will go a long ways toward soothing the wounded spirit of many a Jayhawker. The time for the mid-term quizzes is now here. This week is a time for redemption for the flunker, a time of joy for the "gun," and a time of despair for the student of mediocre ability. To the one who is on the ragged edge of despair it is, however, of the most importance. "Bugging" is a poor way of mastering a subject but it is so much better than flunking that every student who has wasted his time should take advantage of it. Afterthoughts The Rooters (in chapel Monday): Siss-ss-ss! Boom! Wheeee! Holiday! The Chancellor: You are dismissed! The Rooters: Siss-ss-ss! Boom! Whee-ee! Stung! When a certain physiology professor said that he had no brain he undoubtedly meant that he did not have a sheep's An important proposition. Are you ready for the question? Question? It makes a heap of difference where. If the Suit and Overcoat comes from here, they'll be perfect in every way, and you'll be proud of your appearance. Where are you going to buy that Fall and Winter outfit? If your Hat and Haberdashery comes from here it will be correct. Hats and Haberdashery are our long suit. Trust our prices—they are all right.
