dent comes, If no sentiment against
"bumming" Is promulgated. The
Dally Nebraskairputs Itself on record
as opposed to this evil.
We have not touched, as yet, on the
ethics of "bumming." We have no
great love for the railroads, althougli
they should be treated fairly! We
have greater concern for the ethical
welfare of the student, who lowers
himself in his own self-respect and in
the opinion of his fellows when he
"bums."
And another matter is suggested
as long as we have started moralizing
The mean and vicious practice of
"taking" blankets, towels, brushes
and combs from the Pullman Is noth
Ing but plain thieving, pure and slm
pie. The student who forgets that
fact and steals should be maintained
in a home for feeble minded; there
is another institution suited to the
needs of the person who steals and
knows he steals. Besides, the Ath
letic Association has to pay for stuff
stolen. W. J. M.

Why is it that the "good fellow"
nearly always leans toward dissipa
tion? If it isn't whiskey, it is chorus
girls or loud clothes.
A man with a long list of wrongs
quite often doesn't amount to much.
Either the wrongs are imaginary, or
the victim is too lazy or thick-headed
to remedy them.
one of the choicest privileges that 1
have enjoyed has been the privilege
of association with the faculty, not
only out here but down town also. I
have gotten an inspiration that will
help me as long as I live. I shall al
ways have an intense desire to assist
in every way possible in the develop
ment of the university. I want to con
gratulate the students upon the. privi
lege they have of living on a campus
that will be one of the most beautiful
in the country. I have brought my
good friend, .Mr. Miller, and I hope he

such an amendment will pass this
coming session. It would evoke little
surprise. The Webb Bill went through j
with a whoop over President Taft's
veto.
Once submitted the battle is on in
the states. Once a state ratifies it that
closes the conflict in that state. That
action by the legislature cannot be re
pealed. But if the state rejects the
amendment, that only Invites another
fight. Finally the Drys are bound to
win. Nine legislatures in succession
may reject the amendment, but when
a tenth one ratifies it, the state is
listed as favorable.
It cannot be questioned but that the
liquor traffic is national in its organi
zation and influence. It is a federal
evil requiring national Jurisdiction and
treatment. In this age of fast express
and automobiles it is nigh near a
hopeless task to have Prohibition ef
fectively prohibit without the aid of
federal authority.

Regent-elect Miller was not Intro-
Iduced and did not speak to the stu
dents at his own request.
Following Regent Coupland's talk.
Principal Harry E. Bradford, of the
School of Agriculture paid a tribute to
Regent Coupland and called on Dean
Burnett for a few remarks.
Dean Burnett said: "I had no
thought of saying anything to you,
and I shall not make a speech at this
time. I would, however, consider it a
privilege to say to our Regent Coup
land, as Principal Bradford has said,
that we appreciate beyond our power
to express his services for the insti
tution during the period he has of
ficially connected with it. I hope
that his advice and counsel will be
given us in the future as In the past
in our effort to build a greater institu
tion, and I feel sure that he will give
that service."
To the Kditor:
Yesterday's Daily Nebraskan con
tained an item headed "Tramps Will
Start Soon Toward the East." It is
well to be loyal to the best team in
the country and to cheer it to victory.
But the team should not feel com
plimented to be cheered on by a gang
of "buma." To ride the rods, the
cowcatcher or the tops of cars may be
a nervy thing to do, but it is a most
asinine f-tunt. It reflects no credit to
i he University, to the team or to the
"bum" himself.
An accident, resulting in loss of life
or limb, is bound to occur-if the prac
tice is continued. The people of the
state will then condemn the Univer
sity authorities for not having taken
irastie action t prevent overzealous
but hairbrained youths from taking
such chances. But the student body,
collectively and individually, should
consider itself and himself guilty, in
VESPER SERVICE PROGRAM.
Consister of a Song and a Talk Mrs.
Candy Made an Impressive Talk
to the Girls.
The vesper service program last
night consisted of a solo by Miss
Slama and an intimate talk by Mrs.
Candy.
Announcements were made concern
ing the association calendars, Jap
anese pictures and account books
which are on sale in the association
rooms. The Y. W. C. A. is planning
to send several baskets to the poor.
All who have contributions are urged
to let thessociation know at once.
Mrs. Candy's talk centered about the
joy of knowing Christ intimately. She
made many helpful suggestions, mak
ing a strong appeal to every girl pres
ent to make the most of her opportunities.
