THE KANSAN
The official paper of the University of
Kansas.
Entered as second class mail matter September 30, 1904, at the Lawrence, Kansas, Postoffice under the act of Congress, March 3, 1879.
THURSDAY, DECEMBER 10, 1908
The next issue of the Kansan will be the Christmas number and will be issued next Tuesday. This edition will contain about thirty pages and will have special writeups of all the organizations of the University. It It will contain a two-page half tone portrait of the individual members of the all victorious football team, which will be suitable for keeping. The cuts are all made from the latest photographs of the players and are full size. But the issue will not by any means all be given over to football. It will try to tell the story of what the University of Kansas has done and is doing for itself and its supporters. As soon as the Kansan comes off the press Tuesday
it will be on sale at the check stand and at the Kansan office.
Tomorrow the girls of the senior class are going to meet for the purpose of indorsing or rejecting the rules which have been made by the faculty committee for the purpose of regulating the girls of the University. Now if the senior girls take a decided stand on this question it may result in a strengthening of the sentiment in favor of the rules. Ultimately the only power back of the rules is the good sense and acquiescence of the students. The senior girls should come out in full force tomorrow and if they oppose the rules should not be slow to make the fact known. If they stay away from the meeting then they should not afterwards assert that the rules were not endorsed by the class.
When the election for the captainacy was in a hopeless tangle last night, the votes being divided between three men
"Bill" Caldwell than whom there is not a better tackle in this country, arose and manfully withdrew from the race. "I will play just as hard and fierce next year as a regular man as I would as captain and so I withdraw," was the way Caldwell sacrificed a possible honor to end a close election.
Caldwell's playing during two years has merited some reward. Since the day he stepped into Donald's place he has taken good care of every man that came against him. He is an all around man and a great player.
And now the University of Nebraska is looking for a chancellor and turns to the University of Kansas. The compliments which have been paid Kansas by Missouri in selecting a governor, Idaho in taking a United States senator and New York in securing her magazine editors from Kansas, and now Nebraska in looking to Kansas for a chancellor are certainly
appreciated by the University of this state.
And now the denominational institutions of the state are taking up the weekly service idea, which had its birth in the wicked University. Seems to be a case of the lion leading the little child.
Today is the last day to get the souvenir edition of the Jayhawker at two dollars. The editors and managers are endeavoring to put out a high class annual but their efforts will be reduced to nothing unless at least 500 students promise to support the scheme. All persons who want one of the annuals at the special price should see any of the committee tonight or early in the morning before the manager checks up with the committee.
L. S. Cambern, of Erie, senator elect from Neosho county is visiting his son Fred, at the Sigma Nu house.

LISTEN, EVERY BODY! We Launch Our Great Semi-Annual Clearing Sale Immediately! Six Weeks Ahead of Time!
EVERY Fancy Suit and Overcoat in our entire stock. The finest and most comprehensive collection of Men's, Youths', Boys' and Children's clothes in the West, now on public sale at
The Most Startling Price Reductions
ever made at this period of the year on strictly fresh new merchandise of the highest possible class and quality. Read carefully every one of the following items and, as you do so, bear in mind that the celebrated Ober Guarantee stands back of every offering just the same as though we were selling the garments at their regular prices. There has never been an opportunity anything like it and it is extremely unlikely that its equal will ever occur again in the annals of the clothing trade.
OUR $25 Suits and Overcoats, esteemed by all for their magnificent tailoring work, elegance of materials and exclusiveness of styles; sold by no other establishment in the west for less than $30 and $25, respectively, now CUT TO... $18.75
OUR $30.00 Suits and Overcoats, without equal anywhere at any price; the very finest and most luxuriously tailored garments that haver been known in the clothing industry; patterns controlled almost exclusively by the tailors who made these garments for us, now CUT TO... $20.00
Here's the Reason
EARLY in January an army of workmen will swoop down upon our store and begin the colossal task of transforming it into the handsomest, best arranged and most completely equipped clothing establishment in the entire state of Kansas. The full and complete details we will make public at a later date and when we do—well, we'll just say this: it will be one of the biggest surprises Lawrence has known in many a year. The point just now is this: the contract for this "grand transformation" was let two months ago. We are impatient for the work to begin. But it can't begin until we have sold a tremendous volume of merchandise and cleared the decks for the workmen. We have therefore decided to launch our big semi-annual clearance sale immediately instead of waiting until the customary sale period, believing that by cutting our prices to the lowest possible notch we can reduce our stock sufficiently to enable the contractors to take possession of the store early in January. That is the whole story in a nut-shell. The reduced prices speak for themselves, and in view of the fact that the entire stock is strictly fresh, new, up-to-the-minute and embraces nothing but the finest products of the greatest clothes-makers in America. We look for one of the greatest raids on a clothing stock ever recorded in this part of the country. Remember, early buying is always the best, and particularly so in this case.
Cordially yours.
