Entered at the postoffice at Lincoln, Nebraska, as second-class
mail matter under the Act of Congress of March 3, 1879.
Having nothing else to do. now that they haw won the war sue
cussfully, our Kansas contemporaries turn their attention to their less
fortunate neighbors. Following are clippings taken from the front
page of a recent issue of the Daily Kansan:
The S. A. T. C. fellows stepped out in
style at Lincoln. Officers at Lincoln
wear wrap leggings, as do privates at
K. U. In the rain, officers' and S. A. T.
C. hat-cords looked a; ike. And the poor
S. A. T. C. dubs of the University of
Nebraska thought the K. V. privates
were officers, and saluted respectfully
and often. Which made the Oread sol
diers feel good.
The men on the gate at the game
had ini-tructions to admit all lieuten
ants free, and when swageering buck
privates from Lawrence advanced,
they saluted and let them pass. Said
one who had passed in this triumph
ant manner, and had reached the re
served seat section without a casualty,
"Well. I've saluted two dollars and a
halfs worth, all right."
.
The military system at Lincoln is no
good. One company has uniforms, and
i: is a queer looking bunch. The lieu
tenants don't even have leather leg
gings, and everything around .he bar
racks is wrong. Ia fact, the only thing
they" have- at Nebraska is a football
team, wbkh doesn't cut much ice in
limes like these.
Aeeordnig ;o Kansas we are all wrong. Kansas is all right.
There can be no mistake about that, they assure us. Our S. A. T. C.
unit is no good. Its members do nut know officers from privates, be
cause from the careful ot c-rvatica of the Kansans the Sk-ers at Ne
braska do not have leather leggings and other accorremeirs :hat
go to make uj rai orT.ters lilt those from Kans-as.
When ;h- Kir.-j.s football team came to Liwrn 'o p"ay Ne
braska, the Karas root-is who came along. accepted the hospitality
of the Vjw'.y Corr:huk-rs and took advantage of !.:- ej-j-urtunity to
sing aloud :be i -ai- cf themselves, and to take ,. i;i;n the fail
ire? ar.d niul.:tt3ir:cus shortcomings of '.hose w hoe g- -Ms ihey were.
I: v. cuM .- m that a. we have in Nebraska is a "f'tAlzV. teani hk-h
cotMs'i Cut ijjijih k-e in times like these." Would it he anything short
of rjr: p-" "j Mi'jose that Kansas could not be tho:o-ighly acquainted
a th x'::'- facts about Nebraska, or does she refj-e to bothered with
r.j. jf- r'.f.- like facts, for which she evidently ha- r.j o;-rn? Is it
I''ssitle that perhaps twe shudder Jo wrie jti. tLere was a tinge of
"sour grajKV in Kansas' comments upon us? lo dare to call the
attentiori cf the Kansan to the startling tru'h that Nebraska ranks
fourth as a college for the number of men sent from school irco the
service? Nebraska has sent thirty per cent cf her men to war. while
Kar.sas has sent but seventeen per cent of her m-n. Nebraska then,
has tent 1337 men. as compared with Kansas, SOS. an still Ne
braska can play football well enough to beat Kansas, with a score of
twenty to nothing.
If uniforms, and hat cords, and a "swagger." constitute Kansas
contribution to the S. A. T. C. service, then we are glad that, instead,
we have a lot of real school spirit, and the grit to make a success of
our students' army, even in the face of such hardships and disap
pointments as would have caused woe and consternation in the camp
of the Jaybawkers.

SOME THOUGHTS ON SUCCESS
m Jacob vice president. Intenmtlonul Banking corpora

t, .. in vour success is not to fancy yourselves above
V" ! Tuv . no that vou are on some higher piano, and that
routine work, or Inn in
:x ; z: fits u . -
with a little " .M)si(ion That sort of thing Is not going to
i;np,:;;v::;;!er "Option ,.. .
' ai,tud;:r;:;;-t ,. .aUin. You are to encounter
,av things which are not to your liking, and occasion! you will
m" v, hat .PIH-.r- to he unfair treatment. The Question is the
extent to whhh vou can take a certain amount of punishmn.t without
whin.per.ng. Some are an ,onstituted that if things do not go their
wav thev feel grossiv abused and become soured and morose. K ou
tind vourelf getting into this condition it will be well for you to
spend some effort on self analysis. No one with a disposition toward
,oreheadedness can do good work. He is likely, furthermore, to spread
discontent and hwome a trouble maker who sooner or later must be
eliminated from the organization.
Remember this: You cannot pall you.elf up by pulling someone
eNe down. You will be tempted occasionally to speak disparagingly of
some fellow employe with the idea of promoting your own interests.
Resist the temptation.
One quality which I feel to be of great importance in this life Is
the capiu iiv for friendship. To have friends one must not be harsh in
his judgments nor expect perfection In his associates at all times.
You sdiould overlook the frailties of your fellows and make sure that
jou have no: worse faults yourselves.
However ordinary a task you may be given, you should not slight
it. You should do it to the very limit of your ability. By doing small
things well. ou will get the opportunity to do bigger ones.
One of the most difficult things in life is to learn to be patient.
The older you ga the more you will come to value this particular
virtue.
In the course of your life, it is probable that in more than one in
stance you will have someone jump over your head whom you do not
regard as jour equal. In most instances you will be making a great
mistake if you permit yourselves to become greatly exercised over
the apparent slight. You should not permit such happenings to throw
you off your balance. When you see your fellows advanced you should
have the breadth of character to rejoice with them and not become
soured with envy.

the praili..j
w hich you did not feel, friend Hal suj.
gested that you spend th. evening i
song. Spend the evening in song! !
You grew weak at the thought of try.
Ing- to play that music why y09
refuse to practice in your younger
days! And why, oh. WHY. had yon
ever lead Hal to believe that yoq
were a regular little Paderwski?
You took the music over to the
piano, wishing every moim ni that yon
would fall down and break your arm,
so you would not have to struggle with
that music, but nothing of the sort
happened. You sat down upon the
piano bench, and opened a piece of
music "Smiles." Many a time yon
had danced to the strains of "Smiles,"
but never before did you realize what
a complicated bit of musical composi
tion it is. In desperation you hied
yourself over to the victrola. dug out
some records, explaining to Hal with
i a heroically assumed flippancy, that
J you were a record-breaker at playing
the Tic. All went well for a time, then"
I Hal expressed a desire that you re
j turn to the piauo.
Again you approached the object to
your distress. You opened another
piece of music, "Hindustan." even
more intricate than "Smiles." You
looked at it. Y'ou felt yourself on the
verge of tears. You almost decided
! to confess your musical limitations,
when the telephone rang. Never was
i such a sound so welcome to you. The
! call was for Hal. It seemed that he
! was A. W. O. L. You had no idea
j what that means, but whatever it was
you were glad that Hal found it neces
! sary to beat a hasty retreat. "A miss
is as good as a mile" yea. verily, it
is! : !
