A LOFTY SPIRIT
Be noble! and the nobleness that lies
In other men, sleeping, but never dead
Will rise in majesty to meet thine
own.
Lowell
We are for woman suffrage.
And you will be if you attend the
mass meeting Tuesday night.
A "P. B. K." is made in the fresh
man year. And, remember, it is one
of the big honors in school.
TOASTS.
Last year more than two hundred
million toasts were delivered. Indi
cations are that owing to the unprece
dented growth of forum clubs, 80Cial
service organizations, and honorary
fraternities the number this year will
be forty million more.
One of our friends, if elected, has
promised to introduce in the Legisla
ture a bill for regulating after-dinner
speeches. This bill will provide that
any one who intentionally and with
evil intent makes a twenty-five min
ute toast shall be guilty of a mis
demeanor and subject to an indeter
minate sentence of from one to three
years.
This is drastic, but conditions war
rant it. A man who will deliberately
take advantage of a polite invitation
to say a few word3 and use the chance
to make other people hear his voice
ought in some way to be made to feel
the displeasure of society. It is no
small matter to be guilty of wasting
the time of busy University people.
The merit of an after-noon speech
depends on its brevity. Two-minute
toasts are received with enthusiasm.
A ten-minute speech can be made
without causing hard feeling. But a
twenty-minute after-dinner speech can
separate more friends and give rise to
more sinful thoughts of violence than
the Y. M.,C. A. can eradicate in six
months. If you want to be popular
as a speaker, be brief and crisp and
original.
THE FORUM
To the Daily Xebraskan:
I am glad of an oportunity to say
something in the way of an endorse
ment of the candidacy of Chief Jus
tice Reese fof re-election to his prcs'
ent position. I am openly and pub
licly for him In this campaign and
have no conditions or qualifications
to impose upon my views. My belief
and confidence in him and his worth
as an official Is formed after having
watched closely his career and dec!
sions while on the supreme bench
years ago and during the term of his
present incumbency. There is usual
ly a right side and a wrong side, both
in law and in good -onscience, to
most of the many . t ' which are
presented to the supreme court for
determination. It is my sincere be
lief that Chief Justice Reese, with
rare exception, has been found cast
ing his Influence and rendering his
decisions on the right side. I believe
his very nature, thought, and train
ing compels him to such course, and
will always so do. The courage and
independence with which he performs
his duties challenge admiration and
strengthen the conviction that he is
usually right because his nature will
not permit him to be wrong. I.t is en
couraging to know that these views
seem generally shared alike by both
the members of the bar of this" state
and the public generally.
It was my good fortune to attend
the State University Law School
when Judge Reese was its Dean. Of
course, I came to know him to an ex
tent that might not otherwise have
been possible, anyhow, thoroughly
Everybody liked him and could not
help but like him. In the most nat
ural way and in the most agreeable
manner he obtained results from his
classes and imparted and Impressed
information and instruction, not likely
in any other way. Class work under
him was looked forward to with posi
tive pleasure and every student felt
at home and at ease, simply a riot of
good fellowship. But no one's con
science or pride would permit him to
become a failure or a dullard in the
eye of the Dean. With him and his
ork in the classes, there was absent
the usual student's reign of terror,
Big I and little you." Everywhere,
at all times, and under all circum
stances, Judge Reese is the same
genial, inspiring, good soul. I most
sincerely believe that his candidacy
not opposed by a single student of
is, but on tne contrary, is actively
espoused. Like all truly big person
ages, the biggest and best of Judge
Reese, Dean Reese and Chief Justice
Reese is M. B. Reese, the man. I am
ncerely working, wishing and hop
ing for his success in this campaign.
Sincerely yours,
W. C. LAMBERT,
First Assistant City Attorney of
Omaha.

But Not Alone.
There is in Brooklyn a young, re
cently married couple who have been
having the usual half pathetic and
wholly amusing experiences incident
to somewhat limited means and total
inexperience. Last Saturday, there
was a hitch in the delivery of the
marketing, and Sunday found them
with a practically empty larder.
When dinner time came the young
wife burst into tears.
"Not a thing in this house for a dog
to eat! I am going home to inamma."
"Oh, this is horrible!" she wiept.
"If you don't mind dear," exclaimed
the husband, as he visibly brightened
and reached for his hat, 'Til go with
you!" Chicago News.

In an argument against vivisection.
Euston Rogers, a Denver scientist,
said:
"The champions of vivisection have
about as much logic as the j'oungster
in the garden.
"'Oh, you-cruel child!' a lady said
to a youngster in a garden. 'How
could you have the heart to cut that
worm in two?"
"Well, it it looked so lonesome,'
the youngster answered."
