After the smoke had cleared away last Saturday, Charles Vernon, a former University student and now editor of the Manhattan Mercury, penned this tribute to our football team.
"K. U. need not feel that the University team has lost its prospects to win the Missouri Valley championship just because they did not run up a big score against the Aggies. The team that played last Saturday was in a class away above the team that has been playing before. The coaching in individual playing and more especially in team work, has transformed new men into football players. The game that was put on here Saturday would stand comparison with the old team in many respects. It is up to the University rooters to get behind their team right. They will not find many harder battles before them than the one Saturday and they ought to be better prepared to fight them."
The letter of the University card of regents to Governor Subbs is significant. Invited by the Governor to go to the University of Wisconsin where they do things, the regents pointed out the large number of lines of work that the University is now undertaking. Thirty nine distinct branches of state work are maintained in this school and more will be added as soon as adequate means are provided for their upkeep. This means that besides its regular routine of classical, professional and scientific courses it extends its help to the people of Kansas in thirty-nine different ways, each of which represents an economic saving to the state. The visit of the board of regents will no doubt be helpful, but after all the University of Kansas is not as bad as it might be.
In this issue of the University Kansan will be found some interesting facts concerning a number of people who have been engaged in Y. M. C. A. work and will leave soon for the Orient to take up a new line of missionary endeavor. The chapel hour tomorrow will be given over to a man who has been identified with the Y. M. C. A. for a number of years and is said to be one of the most attractive speakers that this organization has today In respect to those who will soon leave for India the student body should attend the exercises in the gymnasium tomorrow.
In memory of his athletic achievements and his activity in various school interests, it is befitting that the University of Kansas extend to Tommy Johnson its best wishes for a speedy recovery of health. For almost a year the former athletic star has been suffering and will probably undergo an operation this week in the hope of a more rapid return to health. Tommy has won his niche in the University hall of fame and the entire student body hopes to see him soon in their midst well and strong.
Are we ready for Drake? Indications are that fully two hundred and fifty Iowaans will come here for the game Saturday and the natural supposition is that such enthusiasm means a good team. Coach Sherwin is rounding his men in shape for a hard contest and it is up to the students to do their share. Why don't some one start something?
When the cheer leader issues his call for a mass meeting, let every one be on hand to give support to our team.

"Put your money in clothes that will stand the racket."----BER'S
Such a large percentage of the well-advertised clothing
"on its looks" that it behooves a man to be careful in choosing his buying place, especially since the good-looking poor-wearing kind costs just as much, and often more than the good-looking, good wearing kind. Every suit and overcoat in our immense fail stock was selected on the merit system and without regard to the "adve tised" reputation of the maker, consequently every customer of this store is not only assured if correct style but reliable workmanship and unsurpassed quality.
For high-class workmanship, purity of materials, fine finish and accurate fitting qualities, no clothing is made that surpasses our new Fall Suits and Overcoats; price range
$10 up to $35
