Kyle's Forum article in the Nebraskan Monday we take it that he considers our views on patriotism all wrong. Owing to the fact that we seemed to have made ourself clear in our article on April 21 that is, clear to most people we will not attempt to answer his question. "If these acts of 'saluting' or 'standing' are indications of patriot ism and things for good, why should there be any reason for abandoning them after the army and navy have been done away with?" However, we might mention the fact that sometimes the truth hurts like everything. BURTON S. HILL. Athletic Board Election The election for the Athletic Board will be held May 10.

They realize the facts and are doing their best now, working hard to straighten out the most obvious de fects and to get their men in the 6pirit of the work. They are calling their officers together for special orders im pressing upon the corporals especially, as the commandant had at the first of the spring drill, the value of the effi ciency of the small unit to the effi ciency of the whole. The captains have entertained their companies in an effort to instill in each man the spirit of the work and to solicit his best efforts. The captains will have three nights a week in which to drill their men the fourth night being given over to bat talion drill and parade. Government inspection is over now, as well as all the extra drill and interruptions in the regular routine so the captains can now get down to solid routine work and get their companies into fighting shape.

Warde, 1501 "O" St., Neb. State Bank Bldg. Verified Statements The girls at Colorado University ob jected strenuously because the En gineers didn't dress or shave, accord ing to their wishes, that is, neatly and without courdaroia and beards. Me thinks that we should send a commit tee of Nebraska Engineers to Colo rado, Warner, Craig, Allen or Norris for instance. Even at this school they are not dreamed of as being engineers. They would surely be popular with the co-eds there. "Unions The weekly meeting of the Union Society will be held Saturday, May 1, in place of Friday, April 30.
