The Nebraskan Is In receipt of Miss Wllla Cather's small volume of short poems -"Aprll Twilights" Rearing upon various subjects and Bhowlng unusual depth of feeling. The verses are smoothly and naturally written and the emotions ring true to experience. "Grandmother. Think Not I Forget," Is a charming bit of dialect, simply told, but not leBB strong for its quiet narration. The book contains a pretty sonnet, beginning with "Alas, that Juno should come when thou didst go." The "Tavern" is a distinctly in dividual piece of work. Occasionally an excellent visualization touch finds ita way into tho book. Most of the poomB, however, are portrayals of emo tion, more or less transient, but given with many excellent touches.

The seventh volume of the Sombrero will make Its appearance Monday. Be ginning at 9 o'clock the book can be bought for the sum of $1.25 at tables In the library building, University hall, and the Mechanic Arts building. Those who have taken subscriptions should turn In their Blips to the managers at once, that they may know just who and how many have subscribed. It will bo well for those who have sub scribed to got their books at the tables, as they will probably get them late If the managers are compelled to look them up. Business will be done strict ly on a cash basis. No credit will be given. Although the book has been well advertised by this time, a short de scription of it will not come amiss. Tho cover is a deep scarlet cloth, In which is stamped a large cream cow boy. A Bam pie has been posted on one of tho bulletin boards in Univer sity hall for several days and has ex cited considerable commont. Because of its cover alono the book would be an ornament to any library. It contains 286 pages exclusive of advertisements, and 240 pages of this are devoted to serious matters, the "josh" department being limited to forty-five pages. It is dedicated to the football team and of course football is one of the chief features. Thirty-four pages are devoted to athletics and six teen pages to football alone. Full page pictures are given of the coaches, cap tain and manager, and a picture five inches in length is given of each play er. Many alumni among the business men of town have shown themselves Interested in this feature of the book and aro asking for a copy. The military department embraces sixteen pages and contains a full-page picture of Captain Chase, pictures of all the officers, the companies, the band, the Pershings, and camp scenes. Thanks to the interest shown by Cap tain Chase, the department has a very creditable representation. Fratornities and literary societies take up fifty-five pages. Each organi zation has a full-page cut. Cuts and biographies of Juniors fill up fifty well arranged pages. Tho cuts are of tho finest quality that could be obtained. As for the literary part of the book, It is necessarily shortf but interesting i uere are stories hy Arthur Welch and Ruth Bryan, and poems by E F Piner Helen Field, and other wejl-known writers. This B illustrated, as is afso the Josh department In the fortv ve pages of Joshes there are over lfty cuts, which give a very fine effect indeed. v Aside from these departments, some or the prominent features of the book are a full-page engraving of the chan cel or a lino half-tone of a Nebraska h... iuivuii Kora a wash drawing by Bernlce Branson, and several fine campus views. On tho whole, the book is a veritable ibrary of University Information and 8 very valuable to anyonewho wishes to keep In touch with University and class affairs. The managers will not make any apeals to the students, be cause the book speaks far itsolf and Its merit will in all probability sell a sufficient number of copies to pay the cost of publication.
