THE UNIVERSITY TENNIS
COURTS.
For tre or six fears there has
appeared tta annual agitation for a
few more tennis courts on the city
campus. Each season a promise has
come from somewhere that p'an
were under way and that ample court
space would soon be available. And
eaoh time followers of the sport
greeted such news with delight and
Indulged In the expectation that per
haps before their alloted four years
were up, they would be able to play
tennis on University courts. But
each year has sent out its graduates
with their rackets still unpacked and
with no recollection of the tennis
matches staged.
Now that the campus has been
extended and" the new buildings com
pleted it would seem that the long
promised tennia courts might ma
terialize. Especially when the ground
where they are to be located needs
little preparation and at least six
serviceable courts could be made at
onee with small expense.
The two courts that exist have not
been in first-class shape and yet have
received extensive use. The fact that
they are not in continuous use lends
little weight to the argument that
more would not be used. About one
experience of a student getting up . .
six 'and waiting "la line" for their
turn to play, Berree as a rather valid
excuse for not playing tennis and
incidentally for little interest in a
tennis team.
This year a good start has been
made, several meetings held, and
quite a number have' manifested a
revived Interest by their attendance
at these meetings. The question now
arises: "What can the Btudent body
do that its request will not be shelved
for another year or more? Tennis
committees might be appointed to
circulate a petition. But such a
method is hardly in keeping with the
general scheme of our institution and
ought not to be necessary.
WHAT YOU MAKE YOURSELF.
Did you admire your friend who
made that brilliant impromptu speech
at the banquet last night? Did you
notice how easily that athlete carried
off the gold medal because of his
excellent physique? Did you hear
that your class-mate who doesn't
study half as much as you received
ten per cent more than you In his
final grade? Did you see what a good
impression that girl made Just be
cause of her "good looks?" ,
And. then, did you feel sorry for
yourself?
Let m give you a "hunch." The
things that appear to be accomplished
lu0 most easily are often the results
c.r the hardest work. The ordinary
person can learn to make a good im
promptu speech. A course in debat
ing or public speaking will be of
great assistance to you in developing
this art If b forms the habit of
remembering all the good Jokes he
hears and telling them often, be will
be considered witty. The ordinary
person can develop his physique. The
ordinary person can prepare nis
lessons in one-half the time he now
spends if be will persistently practice
concentration.
"But," you may ask, "how about
looks?' Can we develop cupid's bow
lips out of straight, firmly set lips?
Can we change an irregular, turned
up nose into a Grecian nose?" No.
But think a moment. What are the
elements that are most Jmpqrtant in
making a favorable impression? They
are taste In dress, pleasing facial ex
pression, taste In combing the hair
and general Immaculate appearance.
The type of person you are to be is
not pre-ordained. Every person is
what he makes himself. If "he does
not overcome his natural handicaps,
it Is because be Is mentally lazy.

Iron will of his he molded his life
and lived perhaps more intensely
than any other American. If he bad

THAT DELINQUENCY.
Were you notified that you were
delinquent in one of your studies? If
not, congratulations! If so, what are
you doing about it? Will you have
the delinquency removed before the
mid-semester reports are Bent in to
Dean Engberg?
The reports are due November 13.
From the eighth to the thirteenth
your time and your professor's will
be occupied by mid-semester exami
nations. Today is November 4. You
ought to have your work all made up
today or tomorrow If you want to
have a clean record when the next
reports are made.
A TIME-SAVER.
A busy student cannot afford to be
without a University directory. Be
sides giving the addresses and tele
phone numbers of all the students and
the addresses, titles .and degrees of
all the members of the faculty, the
directories give valuable Information
about University organizations. Sup
pose that a student's time is worth
thirty-five cents an hour, which is a
low valuation. The price of a direc
tory is fifty cents. If a directory
would save him an hour and a half it
would pay him to buy one. Most stu
dents know that a directory will save
an hour and a half many limes. If
you don't know, ask someone.
