Entered at the postoffice at Lincoln, Nebraska, as second Class mall matter under the Act of Congress of March 3, 1879. Today is election day and the arguments for, and against the candidates will be many. If you vote, don't make your cross after the candidate's name that is the most melodious, or vote for him because you "really don't care which one gets it," but take a couple of minutes and find out which candidate has the best executive ability find out his ideals on democracy discover whether he has ever done anything for the school. Then if you are satisfied that he is the right man, go in and cast an "intelligent vote." ' There is no man who has not been tempted to tilt his nose in the air and be a snob. When someone who has no claim to birth, breeding or brains, carries himself with an air of aloofness, and makes himself generally disagreeable, someone else's feelings are hurt. The man or woman who is broad-minded and sensible is the one who displays refinement and the element of human kindness and abandons the unklndness of an "holier than thou" attitude. The Hughes meeting last evening was a "sign of the times." The Nebraska state hymn which appears in this issued is a com position which will be sung when we are all gray-haired old men and old ladies.' "Thy manly wisdom firm to rule; Thy womanhood in church and school Thy learning, culture, art and peace, Do make thee strong, and ne'er shall cease To keep thee great!" When Marcus Poteet resigned his office as business manager of The Daily Nebraskan, the "Rag" lost one of the ablest business men it has had for years. Mr. Poteet knows the advertising game from the beginning and much of the success of the paper this semester was due to his able work on the advertising end of the paper. CLASS ELECTIONS Nothing can add so much to the dignity of class offices as real competition at the elections. The man who Is elected as the best of several competitors is certain to command more respect than the man who needs only his own ballot to secure his election. Class officers can be. and should be, influential men. There should be more than one candidate for every office when the nominations close tonight. Exchange.

Ct THE MAN WHO QUITS The man who quits has a brain and hand As good as the next. . but ho lacks the sand That would make him stick, with a courage stout, To whatever he tackles, and fight it out. He starts with a rush, and a solemn vow That he'll soon be showing the others how; Then something new strikes his , rov ing eye. And his task Is left "for the bye and bye. It's up to each man what becomes of him; He must find In himself the grit and vim That brings success; he can get the skill, If he brings to the task a steadfast will. No man is beaten till he gives in; Hard luck can't stand for a cheerful grin; The man who fails needs a better ex cuse That the quitter's whining "What's the use?" For the man who quits lets his chances slip Just because he's too lazy to keep his grip. The man who sticks goes ahead with a shout, While the man who quits Joins the "down and out" Exchange.

Tm6 Daily SMraskan constructive editor ials all the campus news daily features the best Varsity sports society news SISOSGH BRIEF BITS OF NLWS J. A. Waddell of Kansas City pre sented the engineering department with thirty copies of "Addresses to Engineering Students." The book is a series of articles on engineering subjects prepared by the prominent men in this work. WOMEN AND ADVICE It is easy enough to understand why theN women's magazines print so much about marriage, for matrimony 1b the one subject in the world nearest and dearest to the heart of every woman, and she will read articles concerning matrimony whether or not the United States goes to war with Mexico. But why do publishers give up bo much space to writers whose highest mis sion seems to bo to warn the Ameri can business woraan against lunches of dill pickles and custard pie, short skirts, thin blouses and designing em ployers? Regular hours, lot of hot water, common sense shoes, "immacu late shirtwaists" (of fairly thick ma terial) and "neatly arranged hair" are regularly recommended to the busi ness girl in almost any magazine she may pick up. It would seem that the average woman who has brains enough'to carry on the routine work of an office should know enough to comb her hair and manicure her nails occasionally without having to consult a magazine. Another curious thing is that this class of advice should be directed so exclusively to the business woman. No one ever yet read an article en Joining school teachers to beware lest their skirts be cut one-tenth of an Inch too far from the ground. One might Judge that school teachers live on a higher mental and moral plane, or that less in the way of outward appearance and seemly behavior is ex pected from the woman who works with children than from her who works with men. Of course, it must be admitted that a fluffy little girl in the schoolroom with the children and a fluffy little girl in the children's fa ther's office are two different proposi tions with the woman at home. It is to be hoped that the time is near when women's publications will discover some of the many ways in which they may be of real and valu able assistance to the woman who makes her living through office work. University Journal. GOOD COMPANY (By Karle Wilson Baker, in the Poetry Review of America.) Today I have grown taller from walk ing with the trees The seven sister-poplars who go softly in a line; And I think my heart is whiter for its parley with a star That trembled out at nightfall and hung above the pine. The call-note of a redbird from the cedars in the dusk Woke his happy mate within me to an answer free and fine; And a sudden angel beckoned from a column of blue smoke Lord, who am I that they should stoop these holy folk of Thine?
