Entered at the postofflce at Lincoln, Nebraska, as second-class mall matter, wnder the Act of Congress of March I. 1879. THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 25, 1915 Some people at least are thinking about the honor system. A debate Is scheduled upon that subject at the Palladian Society for Friday evening. It -would be interesting to hare some of our star debaters discuss that Ques tion at convocation some time. The University is proving a source of much debate and interest in the daily sessions of the legislature. Stu dents should keep in touch with what Is going on down there. It is only a few blocks to the state house and now is a good time to see the legislature in action. The opportunity may not pre sent itself again soon. It has been suggested that Dr. Con dra and his motion pictures be in cluded in the road show which is one of the group of entertainments that will be taken over the state during University week. The suggestion Is worthy of consideration. These pic tures show the views of the campus and farm and many other things of in terest. There are pictures of the dif efrent professors caught here and there about the campus. The people in the state would do doubt appreciate this opportunity of meeting these men in their native haunts. Dr. Condra is well known over the -state and would prove a drawing card for this entertainment THE FORUM In the last f ew issues of The Daily Xebraskan articles have appeared ad vocating the discontinuance of crook ing at University dances. As a Uni versity co-ed I wish to go on record as opposed to any interference along this line. Although I never have smoked in my life I have no objection to my gentlemen friends smoking in my presence. On the other hand I en joy a limited amount of smoking. Neither do I believe that I am alone in this view, because many other girls have expressed the same opinion to mbe siDce these articles started. For the benefit of those girls who do object to men smoking in their pres ence, most gentlemen ask the permis sion of the pirls before indulgiiig iu the practice. I believe that in so do ing they fulfill all objections which any girl can have to the practice. If fche has objections she has the privi lege and the opportunity of giving voice to them and if she does not she has no one to blame but herself. As long as the .gentlemen do not ob ject to the girls dressing in the out landifh costumes in which most of htHi now clothe themselves. I believe that no girl has the right to object, to her friend doing as their desires along the smoking lines may dictate. Now as far as the harmful effects of smoking cigarettes is concerned, it is a disputed point what kind of smok ing is the most harmful. Certainly no sort of smoking could be more harm ful than smoking a pipe. In a pipe the nicotine collects at the base of the pipe and in the stem and every mouth ful of smoke must go through this poisonous mass. In summary along this line I might add that many of the modern costumes do more damage to the health of students than any sort of smoking possibly can. In order to secure final determina tion upon this question I suggest that other girls write their pinions and have them published in" the Daily paper. I feel sure that the majority of the girls who attend University dances feel as I do along this line and I am anxious to read their discussions. E. S.

MOON STORY Finally Discovern That There Will be , no Full Moon This Month Girl Reporter Secures Story The assignment maker on the Daily Xebraskan heard a rumor a couple of weeks ago about something out of the ordinary concerning the moon, to be gotten from Professor Sweetey. Every day it was assigned to a differ re porter with the result that r i ne hesitated, then grew brave and ven tured to approach the observatory as a seeker after the truth, but returned saying that there was nothing to be told. Nevertheless the editor, nothing daunted, continued to assign It At last a certain young lady re porter was given the task and like the others, she hesitated but finally screwed up her courage and in fear and trembling, made her way to the fated place. But what was it? Was it the pro verbial moon of green cheese, or a newly discovered variety? Such were the questions which disturbed her -nental equilibrium as she hurried on her way. Again Professor Sweezey wearily explained that it was not a strange phenomenon and that he did not have a moon in captivity but it was only that there could be no full moon this month because of the shortened num ber of days in February. "Only that!" And he dared to say "only." Why, isnt that enough? Just think girls! Xo full moon in February! Oh,' -the sorrow attached to that for now, February of 1915, must pass to be gone forever and no fair co-ed can wander in the light of the full moon and, gazing over her left shoulder, wish that wish which lies nearest her heart But never mind, girls. February is a dreary old month anyway and "Spring is coming." Infant Predlfly at Harvard Harvard is to enroll one of the youngest freshmen in it history in Louis B.
