THURSDAY, OCT. 14, 1909 We hope that at the earliest possible moment the disabilities against the law school in the present constitution of the student council will be removed. There is no need for any sort of ill feeling between the different schools, and when the matter is sifted to the bottom there is not so much trouble as appears on the surface. The law school is conscientious in wanting to join in the council and in making a success of the council. The college and engineering students are anxious for the laws to join the council. If all parties are sincere in their statements, and we have no reason to charge insincerity, the matter should be settled at once, all parties should be satisfied, and the student council should go about its plans with the solid support of the student body. The Freshmen have responded very well to the custom of wearing a distinctive cap. A great number of the first year men have provided themselves with the distinctive headgear, and the majority of the class will be following the new custom next week. It is a distinct honor for Freshmen to wear the small, blue caps, just as it is for a senior to wear the cap and gown. Those freshmen who disdain to wear caps because it might brand them as first year students need have no fear. They are already branded as the greenest freshmen in the lot. A real, royal Freshie will be glad to wear the cap that will band his class together. It is an honor to be a Freshman. Sophomore Track Committee. Albert LeMoin, president of the Sophomore class, has appointed the following committee to act in conjunction with Coach Hamilton in promoting class track athletics: Will French and W. Rice of the college and John Ellis and A. R. MaeKinnon of the Engineering school. The department of Chemistry has just received from the Roessler and Hasslacher Chemical company, of New York City, a new apparatus for manufacturing oxygen. By this machine oxygen is made from a new material called "oxone." The apparatus will be used in the industrial and the organic chemical laboratories. Paul and Clifford Royer were called to their home in Abilene Monday by the death of their aunt. That Was Dr. Sudler's Advice Tuesday. JOIN HOSPITAL ASSOCIATION. Dr. M. T. Sudler, dean of the Medical School spoke in chapel Tuesday morning in regard to the health of the students in the University and with special reference to the Hospital Association. It has been the custom each year for some member of the University health committee to advise students how to take care of themselves. This is especially desirable for the benefit of the Freshmen whom Dr. Sudler said in their enthusiastic confidence were apt to lack in moderation. He said that the girls needed special caution that they might not overtax themselves during the period of life in which was laid the foundation for health and strength. To supplement and extend the work of the health committee in the University the Hospital Association was formed. With its house on Ohio street it is better prepared than last year to care for students. The student fee is necessary to assist in paying the maintenance expense. Dr. Chambers may be consulted at the gymnasium during his morning office hours. Dr. Sudler stated that the Medics would canvas the students and he urged every one to join the association. INITIATED FIVE MEN. Medical Fraternity Took in New Members at Rosedale. Gibson, Mills, Finney, Mc Carty, Heuser, and Denny of the Nu Sigma Nu Society of the Medical school here went to Rosedale Saturday to officiate in the initiation of new members there. Plates were laid for thirty at the Coates house. After the banquet three members of the Medical class and two men of the faculty were initiated. Dr. Binnie, one of the best known surgeons at the Rosedale school was one of the men taken into membership. Take 'em down to Newby's, those shoes you want repaired. KANSAS The K. K.
