THE END OF THE CHAPTER
We have reached the end of the road. This week will close a year of school and we will depart for our homes—some to return no more. The past year has been one of vital importance to the University and the attitude of the student body on certain questions has been watched with interest by the citizens of our state. Each year the University is called upon to enter into new fields and it is essential to her progressive spirit that she inculcates in the students a spirit of loyalty and fidelity to school life, and a desire to defend the Alma Mater at all times. This year there will be four hundred men and women who will receive their degrees from this school and the great majority of these will go to various parts of the state. Surely four hundred people who are thoroughly imbued with the real importance of the University and the peculiar position that she is called upon to take, can do much towards relieving any feeling of restraint or lack of harmony that is alleged to exist between some of our citizens and this institution. Augmented by those who have graduated before, they form a formidable and imposing foe against any untruths or male-dictions that may be directed to the school. The question is, will interest in school life end in the obtaining of a degree? Past experience would seem to indicate that in a majority of cases it does.
The present senior class has been active in many ways. They have undertaken certain projects that have distinguished them as a progressive class. This same originality of ideas and spirit of innovation that has characterized their school life, should be after graduation even more than now, a dominant factor in the life of each. The University needs men and women who are true and loyal. To those who are going and will return no more as students, we can wish only a happy life, filled with success and honor. Let them ever maintain in their daily life that element of sturdy manhood and true womanhood for which the University has ever stood.
UNIVERSITY IN WAR
Today the nation is paying honor to those men who have fought in its defense. The place of the University in war is significant
of its spirit of fidelity to an ideal and its stand for the best of manhood. From our school has gone forth a galaxy of men who are today recognized as among the military leaders of our nation. All Kansas knows and is proud of General Fred Funston a former student at this school. His rapid rise in military circles has excited the admiration and respect of all. General W. S. Metcalf, who graduated from the school of law in 1897, is another instance of a man who has seen active military service. Colonel E. C. Little, who also received his higher education at this school, achieved fame during his service in the Philippines. And in addition to these we have Major W. W. Reno, Captain Adna Clarke, Captain Clarence Cole, Captain Fred E. Buehan, and Lieut Winton. All these mer are in regular service at the present time.
In Fraser Hall is a bronze tablet, a mute tribute to one of the University men who died while fighting. Alfred C. Alford represents a group of University men who cast aside their books, gave up their other ambitions, and stepped in the ranks and marched to war. The Oread men were men of grit and courage in the "Fighting Twentieth" and all honor is due them.
And as the years go by, war or no war the University of Kansas can look back on a record of achievement in military life that is a credit to any institution, any state, or any nation. The boys
