Following the custom of former years the Chancellor takes the opportunity offered by the University Kansan, to extend a welcome home again to the students of the University who have been here before, and a very hearty first welcome to those who are new to our university life. Already the University spirit is showing itself more powerful than ever, and the standards of the University life are becoming higher and higher. The year just beginning is likely to be one of great importance to the University in many ways. The students who are just coming to us, should get into the best spirit, and tradition of the institution, and, like the students of past years, make up their minds to self control and the sacrifice of some of their inclinations, for the good of the institution. Few of the two thousand and more that are enrolling this year, will ever go to another university, and what the University of Kansas shall be in the future, will determine entirely the worth of their university connection. He is a fortunate man indeed who has behind him in after life the influence and power of a great university. See those long white streaks eating their way across the valley? Those are trains bringing the old bunch back. See those lads with the turned up trousers and those lassies with the winsome smile—they are the old bunch coming back. And you appreciate our love for you don't Alma Mater? Yes you've put on your handsome clothes to look your best for the new bunch. Dear old Alma Mater. heart's away from you,—the old loves just the same, only stronger and more of it. FRANK STRONG. Just Greetings. This is to be a year of new things at the University of Kansas. There will be many new faces in the faculty, new courses will be offered, a new building will be opened to the students, and last but not least we will have a new football and baseball coach with new methods. Just Greetings. Good Morning Alma Mater. Well you're looking fine. The summer sure agreed with you. Yes the old gang's coming back and bringing some new convert with them. No, Dear Mater the summer girls didn't win our Among the important projects that have already been proposed and await the labor and planning of the coming year for development, are the men's union building, and the women's dormitories. Both are notable im- dents of the University had drawn up a set of rules and laws which are being put up in book form. Every freshman should see to it that he possesses one of these books. provements that will affect the student life at the University tremendously. While the plans for the men's union building is still in the nebulous state, it is the intention of the Men's Student Council to raise money before the year is out. As planned the new building will cost something like two hundred thousand dollars, and will contain a large assembly room for student meetings rooms where visiting athletic teams may be lodged and other interesting features. The girls of the University and ladies of the faculty who are interested have already formulated a plan of campaign to secure funds, an outline of which appears otherwise in this issue. It is to be hoped that the students and alumni realize the importance of both these proposed additions, and by their assistance this year, justify the confidence which the originators of the plan have placed in them.

It may appeal to some of the students of the University as being in bad taste to continue to object to the weather at the time of the year when everybody is buying his fall suit, and roasting ears have ceased to be in season. It is only truthful however to state that the copious rains which fell at the beginning of the week have served but little to temper the torridity of a cloudless sun. A walk up the hill to register brings wilted cuffs and collarls, and thoughts of the camp where we spent two weeks on the river during the summer vacation. The registering clerks perspired at their typewriters and pens, and students who had dutifully climbed the hill to deposit ten or fifteen dollars to the credit of the state treasurer, would never be picked by a cheer leader to yell a team to victory. It is the duty of every freshman coming to the University to at once inform himself upon the rules governing the students and to ever afterwards obey those precepts and be a law abiding student.
