MONEY MUST COME IF HUN "KULTUR" IS DOWNED NECESSARY TO FREE OURSELVES FROM OUR NATIONAL SOFTNESS. (By George F. Hurley, '18L.) We as a nation are engaged in a death struggle with a foe that neither knows nor practices the principles of humanity. Hardened by privation, brazen in its self-confessed mendac- ity, and infurated by a powerful and stubborn opposition to its lustful craze for power; they do not expect nor intend to give any quarter. We face such a foe, whose every human element, and whose entire ec- onomic resource is centered in this conflict, with a citizenry steeped in a philosophy of individualism that bor- ders on selfishness, a philosophy that preaches that the individual is above all, and that democracy exists to serve him. . Such a philosophy breaks down when pitted against a highly concen- trated autocracy. Great Britain does not talk in terms of the individual° today as she did four years ago. Let us profit by her experience. National Life Soft. Our life as a nation has been so soft, and prosperous, and peaceful. We have taken everything in so ef- fortless a manner that we are forget- ful that what we enjoy has to be paid for with a price, and that to pay that price is our bounden duty. We have incurred an obligation which, if we are at all honorable, we will endea- vor to discharge. We who enjoy the privilege of an education at the hands of the state are heavily obligated to it, and we are bound to redeem this obligation, by service to the State when oportunity presents. To feel the responsibility of paying this great debt is the true es- sence of citizenship. Too many of us are veritable spong- es, sucking in all we can get, and hold- ing it,-until the strong hand of the law, under pressure of necessity,' squeezes out of some of our surplus, and then we yell with pain. If we be- lieve that the purpose of education is to make us first class sponges- then we deserve to be squeezed, and squeezed hard. To believe such is to proclaim that we are devoid of all loyalty to our fellow men and the country thatis their composite self,- that we are citizens only to exploit our country . Spicy News From Other Universities Students of Columbia university will cast their votes for the next mayor of New York. A straw vote is to be held under supervision of the Specta- tor. Both men and women will vote. The coal supply of Ohio state uni- versity is not yet on a secure basis. Only one carload of fuel has been re- ceived by the university and conse- quently the danger of a tieup from a cold spell is still imminent. Nine machines from the aviators' training camp at Dayton visited Ohio State university lately. The trip was a surprise to the residents of Colum- bus, but a large crowd was at the field before the last of the planes land- ed. The planes traveled in military formation, with two men to each ma- chine. The entire trip was accom- plished without any serious accident. A cafeteria has been established in conjunction with Indiana universi- ty. The creation of a homelike atmos- phere with the serving of meals that will tempt the most jaded appetite at a price that will be an inducement for everyone to put on weight, is said to be the aim d~ this new institution. One of the managers is quoted as say- ing, "If, as Napoleon said, an army fights on its stomach, it is equally true that a student studies in the same way. The student who has in- sufficient or improper food will not get on in his work. " Outdoor exercise woll take the place of the gym work for women of the University of Kansas.

Abolition of formals during the per- iod of the war is advised by Dr. Strong, Chancellor of the University of Kansas. He urges that if formals are not entirely done away with, at least their expense should be greatly reduced, so that the price of admission will be as low as possible.

Their new production, The Bridal Twirl, will be their initial offering. It is a tuneful melange of scenic splendor, offers a bevy of beautiful girls garbed accord- ing to the latest dictates of Dame Fashion, and is altogether one of the most spirited vehicles in which this company has appeared. There is f profusion of jingling mel- ody, of the whistling kind, and smiles ranging from the tiny crinkling of the lips to the full-blown guffaw of up- roarious laughter. There is never a let-up when things have started- from the curtaIn's rise there is some- thing doing in some interesting or amusing way. The gowns that are worn by the pretty girls in this company are a rev- elation to feminity. WOMAN'S LEAGUE POSTPONED PARTY WILL BE HELD TODAY The postponed membership party of the Woman's league will be held from 3:30 to 5:30 o'clock this afternoon in Barbo'ur .gymnasium. For this first big league party of the year, Wyvern, junior girls' honorary society, has provided an original play. Besides this entertainment, dancing will add to the afternoon's enjoyment. "Y" TO RAISE $35,000,000 FOR WORK AMONG SOLDIERS The Y. M. C. A. will open a national campaign Nov. 11 to raise $35,000,000 for association work among the sol- diers. $11,500,000.00 of this fund will be spent at training camps in this country, a large part of the balance will be used among the American sol- diers in France. Russian and Italian officials have asked that the asociation send repre- sentatives to their countries to help improve the morale of their armies. Must Give. Fighting the foe that we are, and as unprepared as we are to do it, the greatest opportunity that we ever will have to settle our debts with democ- racy presents itself. If we cannot fight, then we can give of that which under a beneficient political spstem we have been able to enjoy. Either method of settling with our country entails sacrifice, and both go to our credit toward striking a balance in our account with our republic. We cannot be selfish and be patriotic at the same time. To be the former, is to blind ourselves to our duty, and that is a form of treason which, while not pun- ishable with death, merits, and will surely receive, the scornful treatment that it deserves. All of us, rich and poor, are in- debted to this democracy of ours. We owe more than we can pay, and if we have any respect for our manhood, and womanhood, we will at least urge up- on our generous and patient creditor, our country, a substantial percentage of our obligation in the shape of sub- scriptions to the Liberty Loan, to serve her, andthrough her, our fel- lows, in our common necessities. We cannot be true citizens and be blind to our duty,-only ingrates turn deaf ears to the call of that great democ- racy that represents us all, is us all. With the Hun thundering at the gates of civilization, if we prize what we have, let us cast aside our petty indi- vidual comforts and rise as one to re- pel him ere he spread ruin and ter- ror among us. FEW BOOKS HANDED IN AT LIBRARY FOR SOLDIER CAMPS Although the library is still caling for more books for . the soldiers' camps, very few have been brought within the last two weeks. Books con- tributed have been mostly fiction, but a few French text-books have also been brought in. No technical works have been received for some time. Tryouts For Varsity Debate To Meet.
