BREAD AND BUTTER.
BY o. G. W.
My mother says, il little girls
Want curly hair, they must
Eat all their bread and butter up,
And specially the crust.
So very many little girls
In all the wide, wide world
Would be so very happy il
Their hair was only curled!
And can be 80 selfish them
No, dear mamma, | must
Give other little girls my bread,
And specially the crust.
EXHIBITIONS.
When Susie spoke her little piece
On exhibition day,
That looks down Warson way;
In pinafore and dangling braids
She seemed vision sweet;
For me to worship where l sat
And shuffied in my seat.
When Susie spoke her little piece
All red and pale grew she,
With bashful air and shifting glance
That saw no soul but me.
Although no word l understood,
So low her lispings were,
gloried in the thought that
Whole audience was to her.
When Susie spoke her little piece
But that was years ago.
We're married now, and still am |
Her audience l trow.
Now when she speaks her little piece
Her voice rings clear and loud:
| ID rather be boy again
And share it with a crowd.

the Missouri university football team,
Coach Outland said today:
1T is not true that Missouri has made
me an offer of the position. I have not
decided to come back to Washburn
however. I have promised Manager
Leach this: that if 1 coach anywhere
next fall, I will coach Washburn. If l
accept a position here at Washburn, L
will move here, and make Topeka my
home. I will start up here in the prac-
tice of medicine, and not expect to re-
turn to Wichita.
Whether or not I will continue ath-
letic work do not know. I am talking
the matter over with members of my
family, but have arrived at no conclu-
Sion.''
1t can be stated on the best of auth
ority, however, that while no tender OF
the position of coach was made to
Coach Outland, yet Missouri men
sounded certain Washburn players, and
also Manager Leach, to find out what
chance there would be of getting Out
land Missouri is dissatisfied with Coach
Mclean, and will probably throw him
overheard if possible. The members OF
the team abuse Mclean and will not
work for him. Missouri would like very
much to get Outland for their coach,
but the emphatic declaration of the
popular Washburn man sets their hopes

Glimpse of Teams That Meet on

1.-The Mysterious Disappearance OF
Billy Rice" would make a nice title
for a melodrama to be enacted by the
Washburn College Dramatic club. 1t
would be founded on fact, for Billy
Rice. the star football player, who was
counted on to win the Haskell game
by at least so to 0, was not out for
practice with the team Thursday after
noon, and nobody seems to be real sure
that he will be here even in time for
the game on Saturday.
Rice is at Tonganoxie, testifying IN
the case of a chap who tried to stab
him last summer. He can't get away
until the trial is over, which may be
today and may be next week
The details in the stabbing affair are
of no special interest at this time. Suf-
fee it to say that a fellow who didn't
like Mr. Rice tried to carve off a sec
ton of his anatomy, and succeeded in
infficting quite a serious wound. Rice
is able to take care OF himself pretty
well when it comes to physical encoun-
ters. and he kept his bloodthirsty OPP
moment from infiicting a fatal wound.
The proba biIity is that the man with
the knife will have to languish behind
the bars for a while during the cold
weather.

Nash had his hand hurt in the Mis-
souri, game, and may be unable to play
Saturday. He is likely to be needed
for end or halfback.
In the practice yesterday, the back
field was composed of Caldwell, Dadis-

probably play the right half unless
Rice gets home. The work Thursday
afternoon was fast and snappy. The
team is showing up better than it has
at all this year.

Comparison of Teams.

Comparison of Teams
Haskell is expecting an easy victory
over Washburn. They think they will
beat WaShburn as easily as they did
K. U. Coach Outland said Thursday:
"Of course the chances are that Has
keu will beat US, but we hope to hold
down the score. Haskell is playing bet
ter ball now than when they beat K.
U. early in the season.
On the ends of the line, Haskell will
have the better of it. Pete Hauser and
Captain Guyon are both superior to the
At tackle, Haskell has Emil Hauser
and Bull Dubois. Hill will play against
Hauser and Williams against Dubois.
The two Haskell men are heavier, and
be a pretty fight. Washburn's guards,
Louthan and Sharp, or Louthan and
Pearson, ought to at least hold even
with oliver and Warren. Washburn
may have a little the best of it at
guards.
Stub Felix, the Haskell center, has SO
far played all around every center he
has encountered this year, according to
reports. He is said to have had the
better of Michaelson of K. u This line
of figuring ought to make him consid-
erably the superior of Brown of Wash
burn. who is new to the position of
center.
For quarter, Haskell will probably
use Falls, with LaMotte and Moore
for reserve, Falls has none the best of
Jimmy Stewart if the latter is in con-
dition, but with Stewards weak ankle,
Falls is probably superior.
Archiquette is probably as good a.
half back as Caldwell so far as speed
is concerned, and he carries more
weight. Rice and Dadisman ought to
do better work than Gokey and Porter.
On the whole, the Washburn back
field with Rice in the game, is super
ior to that of Haskell, but it lacks the
training, speed and team work.
On this estimate, Haskell has rather
the better of it in individual players.
provided every man is in condition, and
is it admitted that it will have a large
advantage over Washburn in team
work The chances are that Haskell will
beat Washburn by about three or four
touchdowns. There is, however, a
strong probability that Washburn, by
battering away at the Haskell line, can
make a score on the red men. If Rice
is not in the game, however, Wash
burns chance of scoring is very mater
tally reduced.
