THE TALISMAN 9 Our Guide, Philosopher and Friend This is Prexy, our elderly, verbose friend who presides over the F. U. carpet, and well may the owner of the guilty conscience tremble, as he obeys a summons to the official sanctuni. For Prexy can be rather terrible when he likes. Yet he very seldom Hlikesl' and is noted and beloved for his genial good nature and leniency. No student ever approaches him for counsel in vain, for he is never to busy to listen to troubles and to give advice. We will never forget him, and in future years the sound of l'We have with us this morning and Let the words of our mouths and the meditations of our Iu-arts, will never fail to recall to our memory our dear old friend. President Stanley received the training for his present position among the Ku Klux of the South in the stirring times of '65 and '6fi. Hence, we inter, his present distaste for strife, and love of peace. He was called to the presidency of the university after long- years of experience as superintendent of the public schools of Kansas, and his fame as an educator is wide spread in this state. The great growth of the university in the past has been due, in a large measure, to him, and into this school he has put all that was in him. Vile have firm faith that, under his wise guidance, the university will continue to grow until it is one of the largest in the state.
