Coach Kline and Coach Reed have both taken the op portunity offered them of getting a line on their athletes for future com petition, and have entered a surplus of men in many events. Coach Reed has based his selection of the entries lor tomorrow's meet upon the condition of his- men at the present time. The squad is rounding into form gradually and some of them are not yet ready for strenuous com petition. For this reason the coach has chosen for each event those men who in his judgment are in fit condi tion at this early stage of the game to compete in tomorrow's struggle with out effect in sr their work for the re mainder of the season. As the men round into form, every man of ability will be given a chance to show what he can do. Scott, Irwin and Peering are entered for the hundred, and in the two-twenty Scott and Captain Zumwinkle will run for the Huskers. The captain and Bates are the only Nebraska entries in the 440. Three half milers are slated to com pete with the Coyotes Clark. Claar. and Kubik. Spohn. Anderson, Gribble. and Garrison are registered for the mile event. Coach Reed has uncovered a find in the two mile in Webermeier, a senior, who is making his first attempt at varsity track. The new miler has dis played surprising form, covering the ground with a long, ground-eating stride indicating wonderful possibility. Besides Webermeier, Nebraska will be represented by McMasters and Raecke, both or whom have demonstrated their ability in former years. Rees. another new man. is clearing the bar in the high jump at promising heights, and with his partner Hum mell should net Nebraska the major ity of points in this event. Rees. who is also a broad jumper, is entered with A nk en y in the broad jump. Reavis is the only Husker who will vault tomorrow, but he is an almost sure first. The Titian-headed lad is showing form which will probably prove the surprise of the valley. A trio of football stars Rutherford, Chamberlain, and Shields will put the shot for Nebraska. In the discus, Otoupalik and Lowan will compete against the Methodists. Otoupalik, a new man at track, is hurling the dis cus creflitable distances and is show ing marked improvement all the time. In the hurdles, Nebraska has en tered six men. Geoteze, Bolton, Israel : i : & ' V:' - lf --v!":li ' "' - - HI III f 1 ' i 17.2 I M .Stf J f 4 VALERIE BERGERE & CO.

FOREST CLUB TO ISSUE AN ANNUAL High Standard of Efficiency Set Technical Forestry Work Included The sixth number of the' Forest Club Annual will be issued the third week in May. The Annual sets a high standard of efficiency, and as a tech nical forestry publication, with an established national reputation, its appearance will undoubtedly receive the usual hearty welcome among for estry men. The book has experienced an en viable success in the past and it is ex pected to continue this precedence set, in the future. Nebraska was the first school in the United States to put out a technical forestry publica tion, thereby setting an example which is now being followed by most of the other prominent schools of the country. The Nebraska publication still stands at the head of the list with possibilities of remaining there indefinitely. The Annual this year will be of the usual size, containing 125 to 130 pages of printed matter and twenty-four cuts or illustrations. The contents of the book will include, among other things, twelve very interesting and valuable articles along forestry lines, which are sure to attract the atten tion of forestry men. The staff this year is: L. J. Talmer, editor; H. B. Rigdon, associate editor; L. M. Towle, business manager. i Nebraska Foresters on Grazing Reconnaissance Moving Camp Pre-Medic Week Program This is Pre-Medic Week, which in cludes a program at Convocation and a trip to Omaha over Friday and Sat urday.

Dinner at the Commercial Club, finals in the tennis tournament, an auto trip over the city, inspection of the school, visits to the various clinics Saturday morning, and dances at two fraternity houses in the evening. Rewards of Tree Planting Tree-planting has its rewards in both pleasure and profit. The Japan ese consider the man who plants a tree a philanthropist. He works not only for himself but for future generations. His name goes down in the records of time as a good man nd his tomb stone is engraved with wreaths of honor. Though he is read, his living tree speaks words of praise and tell the people of his virtues when in the world of action. No greater monu ment the dead can be erected than the life-giving, health-restoring and pleasure-sustaining tree that talks and sings of the good deeds performed by its donor. The Nut Grower. ARBOR DAY VALUE (Continued from page qne. Interest not only to plants, but also to animal forms. The fact that soon afer the estab lishment of Arbor Day it became the custom to celebrate it not only by tree planting, but also by songs, recitations, and other appropriate exercises gave rise to a series of results, primarily aesthetic in their nature, which have proved to be of much value. An inter est was stimulated in trees, and through them in shrubs and other flowering plants, and finally in a'.l natural objects which was to be far reaching In its effects. The move ment may be said to have begun at the schools themselves. It is probably . true that the great improvement in the appearance of school grounds in the last few years is directly traceable to the influence of Arbor Day. From the schools the movement spread through the communities. It became not mere ly an attempt to improve the lanscape features, but came to include all those manifold activities undertaken under the name of civic improvement efforts to better in every possible man ner the genral welfare of the com munity. All these results and more, are traceable more or less directly to the Arbor Day idea but the idea itself has undergone a change. It has wid ened in scope. In place of the concep tion that Arbor Day means merely the planting of trees, we may now con- 'ceive its object as the betterment or environment and a better inheritance for the coming generations. "Its spirit is hopeful. Its moto is progress. It is ever to impart new and more wide spread benefits." But after all.' it has probably be stowed its greatest benefit when it. has awakened in one an interest and regard for Nature in all her farms. Religion excepted, there is no single gift more useful to man as an indi vidual. As Wordsworth says: Nature Never Did Betray The heart that loved her; 'tis her privilege, Through all the years of this our life, to lead From joy to joy; for she can so inform The mind that it within us, so impress With quietness and beauty, and so feed With lofty thr-ughfs. that neither evil tongues, Rash judgments, nor the sneers of sel fish men. Xor greetings where no kindness is, nor all The dreary intercourse of daily life Shall e'er prevail against us, or dis turb Our cheerful faith that all which we behold Is full of blessing. Worth Remembering I willingly confess so great a par tiality for trees as tempts me to re spect a man in exact proportion to his respect for them. He cannot be whol ly bad who has a sympathy with what is so innocent and so beautiful. But quite apart from any sentimental con sideration, the influence of trees upon climate and rainfall gives to the plant ing of trees, and to the protection of them where nature has already plant ed them, a national importance. Our wicked wastefulness and contempt for hte teaching of science in this matter will most eurely be avenged on our descendants. James Russell Lowell. , j t J7w . sir-.'V .
