TRIES OUR SYSTEM
Kansas Thinks Our Ways is Good
and Patterns After.
Kansas is laying herself out as never
before to beat Nebraska In debate this
year. The- Jayhawker faculty, backed
by Chancellor Strong, has adopted a
now system of training the team, and
the dobatlng council has adopted a new
plan of selecting the team a plan
which will, it Is thought, secure for the
University tho very ablest men the
men who know most about tho sub
ject and who aro tho best arguers on
their legs that tho Kansas State Uni
versity can turn out. Instead of pick
ing tho team at once, the council cboso
a half dozen men. They have been
studying tho subject debating on it
twice a week for two months. This
week tho team that meets Nebraska is
chosen. On the new methods, which
are somewhat like Nebraska's, the K.
U. Weekly of last week jubilates as fol
lows: "The success of tho new plan of
choosing debaters has surprise its
most ardent supporters. Noxt week the
men who will finally represent the
University will bo chosen in a public
contest. Whoever is chosen from the
debating squad to make up tho teams
confidence is expressed on all sides
that they will know their respective
questions better than any teams over
before sent out by Kansas. The de
bating squad has mow given nearly two
months to the study of the questions.
They have met at least twice a week
for oral debate, considerable rivalry
between men and Sides having resulted,
all of which has tended to bring out
the strong and weak points of the ques
tion at issue."

how Can I Keep Up with
the Times ?
IT is pretty hard to keep well informed on the
political news, the scientific news, the literary
news, the educational movements, the great
business developments, .he hundreds of interesting
and valuable articles in the hundreds of excellent
magazines. About the only way it can be done by
the average busy man and woman is to read a
magazine like ' The Review of Reviews," and. as
it is the only magazine of the sort, it is a good
thing to send $2.50 for a year's subscription.
PRESIDENT ROOSEVELT says:
" I know that through its columns views have been pre
sented to me thai 1 could not otherwise hae had access to ,
because all earnest and thoughtful men. no rratter how widely
their ideas diverge, are given free utterance in its columns."

"I consider it a very valuable addition to my library."
