The present system of maintaining the chief educational institutions in this state is wasteful and uncertain. It prevents the making of adequate plans for the normal growth of the institutions, and it compels their administrative heads to spend time and effort lobbying at legislative sessions which could be expended more profitably otherwise. The educational institutions of Kansas can never take their proper rank until provision is made to support them by a mill tax. It is reasonably certain that those fancy plays which we have heard so much about, and which the coaches do not dare to use because of the presence of foreign spies in the bleachers, will have to be called into service some time before the season ends. The President of Oklahoma University found himself with a medical school on his hands and as his problem in handling it is similar to the one which the University of Kansas has been working on for a number of years, he made a trip to Lawrence and Rosedale to see what the methods used by the officials of the University of Kansas have accomplished. This is one kind of "spying" which the University welcomes. For a young School of Medicine, we think we have a pretty good one, which will be still more worthy of imitation by sister universities as time goes on. Nebraska has always assumed a slightly "uppish" air in discussing athletics with the University of Kansas, as if the Cornhuskers were conferring a favor by scheduling games with the Jayhawk- ers. Probably the fact that Nebraska gets to play some games with the big teams to the north and east is responsible for the attitude. A comparison of results of Nebraska-Kansas football games shows that our neighbors to the north have nothing on us in the matter of gridiron skill. Each school has eight games to its credit. The contest next Saturday has additional interest since the tie will then be played off, and one institution will be able, for a year at least, to claim superiority over the other. The students at the Kansas State Agricultural College are anxious to have their school be come a member of the Missouri Valley conference. The "Aggies" should be welcomed into the fold They have no difficulty in developing teams of conference strength. The acquisition of the Manhattan school would strengthen the conference and would mean an improvement of athletic conditions in the Missouri valley. One University student spent the summer devising a slogan which would stir the blood of the football rooters. The result of his labors—"Get N. U.'s goat with K. U.'s shoat"—is useless, because Coach Mosse didn't give the team a pig mascot as the student expected him to. The danger from typhoid seems to be over, but it will do no harm to have the landlady continue to boil the water. Freshman Pole Vaulter Injured Freshman Pole Vaulter Injured Lewis Helvern, a freshman in the College, was hurt Saturday while pole-vaulting in the gymnasium. Helvern was in the act of going over the standard when the pole sprung beneath him, causing him to fall heavily to the ground, striking on his head. The force of the blow caused unconsciousness for about ten minutes. He was attended by Dr. James Naismith in his office in the gymnasium. We do particular cleaning and pressing for particular people. Lawrence Pantatorium, 12 West Warren. "Oh! my tongue! That stuff burns, doesn't it?" said Miss Palgrave-Turner, the contralto singer of Madame Lehmann's concert company, after she had performed an experiment with liquid air at the chemistry building Thursday morning. The four members of the concert company were visiting the departments of the University, accompanied by Dean C.S. Skilton They were introduced to the mysteries of liquid air. Several soft chocolates were used in experiments demonstrating the freezing properties of the liquid. Miss Turner was jestingly asked to bite one of the frozen sweets in half and she in all seriousness did as asked. The dainty touched her tongue and raised a goodly blister. One of the gentlemen exclaimed, "Gee! That stuff burns like the deuce!" when he held a bit of the liquid in his hand and neglected to keep it moving about with the result that a large blister appeared in the center of his palm. Awarded Contract for Lake. The contract for the construction of the University lake, north of Marvin hall, was let Friday afternoon to W. W.
