THE SLUFFER IN COLLEGE
To the editor of the "Princetonian" we are indebted for an able edition upon things as they are, at Princeton, and here. It is entitled "The Sluffer in College." It follows:
"Editorials as a rule are not interesting. But if they bore you think how awful it must be for the man who has to write them every day, day after day, world without end."
"It it is easy enough to fill this column. It is easy as it is to fill a money-bag—with moth-balls. But the poor man who comes along, picks it up, and instead of finding something worth while finds only the stale, musty smell of last year's hand downs. The function of an editorial is not to fill a column, but to praise, to blame and to suggest. As it is much more difficult to praise and to suggest than it is to blame, an editor is therefore one of those men who spend most of their time looking for trouble. And he usually finds it. But there is nearly always something on which to write an editorial. If there is not anything, then there is nothing, and that is what we have chosen to write today—nothing.
"It is appalling to look at the number of men in the university who do—nothing. Men who have ability, but spend their days killing time, doing nothing. Men who seem to have no ideas of their own, who produce—nothing. Men who take things ready made. But who give the world—nothing."
"Look at them in any lecture hour. They are either asleep or hunting eagerly through the morning's 'Prince' for tyopographical errors. Look at them in their rooms, studying, maybe but learning—nothing. Talking-perhaps, but saying—nothing. Day after day they shuffle through their bromidie existence, they travel the easy road of unproductiveness which leads from Nowhere to Nothing. You can pick fifty men in each class who do practically everything done by that class, and there are an equal number who do absolutely—nothing. What is their
value? Nothing. Yet, after all,
they have their place in the system of things; they are the nth term in a rapidly converging series."
A PLEDGE OF LOVE
"Unele Jimmie" Green long ago enshrined himself in the hearts of every student and the manifestations of love and respect that were shown him at the annual banquet given last night in his honor, add to the monument that loyal collegians and graduates are erecting to show how dear he is to them. Every year eminent men of the state, alumni and students in the School of Law gather to pay tribute to the man who has built the legal department of this University to its present high standard.
Beginning seven years ago to commemorate the erection of Green hall, the annual banquet has come to be the most distinctive gathering that occurs during the school year. Thursday night one hundred and thirty-five men gathered for the seventh annual banquet and the pledge of friendship, respect and devotion was again renewed. Every speaker who appeared on the program emphasized those qualities of guidance and solicitation that have recommended Dean Green to every student who has ever been associated with him.
The "Uncle Jimmie" banquet is the most cherished possession of the School of Law and long after "Uncle Jimmie" has passed away it will be handed from one generation to another, the richest heritage that can be bestowed.
COME OUT FOR DEBATE.
The question for the triangular debate between Oklahoma, Colorado and Kansas has been chosen and those who expect to enter the tryouts had better get busy. The question selected by the three schools is perhaps one of the most important questions that is before the public today. The recall of judges has been discussed extensively in the press during the past few months and authorities may be found who support both sides of the question .
President Taft recently sent a message to congress in which he placed himself strongly against the recall, declaring it to be pernicious and at the least unneeded.
The question is an open and debatable one and the schools were happy in their selection. Those who work on the question are sure to find it interesting and instructive.
A large number of students have already signified their intention of trying out and it is hoped that the largest number that has ever been out will come to the first tryout on November 21.

An' you'll do as much for Ames;

Ames;
You humbled Kansas Aggies.
An' you won some other games.
But there's someone in the wood-
They're a-playin' kin o' fumbly.
But they're takin' of it slow;
You'll see 'em win their battles
Though the score is kind o' low
So don't you get th' swell head-
Wait a bit before you shout-
For the Jayhawker'll get you.
Ef you

Editor, University Kansan:
May I call attention to the fact that the article "Graduates will not be Represented," in your Thursday's issue, very evidently presents only one side of the discussion. No report whatever is made of what the "six or seven" graduate students who debated so enthusiastically with Mr. Sears had to say for themselves.
In addition to this, two or three misleading statements are made in the article which should be corrected.
To the best of my remembrance, Mr. Sears did not state, as reported, that fully half of the graduates are instructors in the faculty. What he did say was that about one half were from other colleges. He argued on
Once you try a single pair at 25 cents you will buy them y the box. A better made at 35 cents per three pair to the box.

this basis that graduate students are largely first year men, and on a level with poor benighted freshmen, and therefore apparently, having no rights whatever which the student body is bound to respect. If this is the case why are graduate students permitted to vote in the senior class election, thus letting them vote just as if they belonged to one of the three ruling classes? The Graduate School is a good sized separate school in the University and has a perfect right to representation by its own chosen representative. The statement that the student body has excluded the Graduate School from the Council is absurd. The comparatively small group of men, who gathered at Green hall on Thursday, was is no way representative of the student body as a whole.
These comments are made by a second year man, who is also a graduate student, and who does not instruct whatever in the University. G. Bruce Blair.
