Clements, '94. and he expect to start north by car about the first of May, passing through a large part of Texas and Oklahoma where they will do some work on the grazing problem, "We are trying to arrange our schedule so that we will be in Lincoln for commencement week, so would be very glad to have the program as soon as possible. 'My sister, Harriet Long, '08, is in Paris with the Ameri can Library Association. General Pershing has arranged It so that any soldier in the A. E. F. can write in to headquarters and have two books sent to him at once from the library. So many demands have ' come for books that the whole force is kept busy filling orders at present. They hope soon to be sent out to establish centers for distribution nearer the army of occupation." Edward Ford Piper, '97, had a poem published in the last issue of the Literary Digest. It is an American war poem and has for its title "Gee up Dar, Mules." Miss Lillian Wirt, '18, has returned to her position as head of the Y. W. C. A. association at St. Paul, Minn.

Alumni Association of southern Cali fornia, which has over three hundred members. ALUMNI NOTES To South America by Rail Wouldn't the average American citizen feel a peculiar thrill if he Baw a freight car with Spanish inscrip tions pull into town, loaded down with tropical fruits, say bananas? Yet, that is liable to happen some time in the next few years. It la now possible to go by rail as far south as the border of Guatemala but hiatus exists from there to the Panama Canal. Yet it is believed that in the near future Interested capitalists and engineers will furnish these missing links, and a railroad ride to the Panama Canal may be a possibility. n The dreamers even go further to day. By constructing railroads from the Panama Canal southward1 through Columbia, through the mountainous regions of Ecquador and Peru, a con nection would be established with the railroads in Lima, Peru, and thence a journey southward would only be prevented by a few small gaps yet to be built. It Is said that it takes twenty-five days by steamer to get from New York to Buenos Aires but this rail way system would be able to carry you there in fifteen. A Trans-Atlantic Air Flight Nearly a hundred years ago, lack ing a month or so, the first steam vessel, crossed the Atlantic ocean. The voyage lasted for twenty-nine days. This year the world I going to be disappointed if th Atlantic is not crossed in the air. Great Britain, France and the United States have flyers anxious to make the effort. The chances of success are apparent. The thing will be done, whether by airship or airplane re mains to be seen. American army officers flew 664 miles in 300 minutes in a plane. At this rate the ocean can be crossed In fifteen hours. A huge dirigible is reported from Great Britain, which plans regular air service to Africa, and the nearby dominions. France Is also looking for laurels, and the first ocean flight may be accomplished at any time by any of these nations. The American navy has announced its purpose to make this adventure. Preparatory work is now under way for a flight some time in the spring; during which destroyers, stationed every few hundred miles, will lock out for the big craft Just as it was an American steamship to first croea the ocean let. us hope that the first aerial trip will be made by an Ameri can. Let us also hope that in this new initial effort will be sustained, and, our aerial fleets lead -the world. AMANO PLAYS FOR UNION Alfred Amano, noted Hawaiian steel guitar player, furnished the program for the- Union Literary Society which met Friday evening In Union hall. Mr. Amano has traveled with the "Bird of Paradise" and has also made many other important circuits in this coun try. The program was one of the most attractive presented this year. The idea of some people that you have to be belligerent to secure re sults is a mistake. You can some times achieve better results by other measures. "The opinion of some experts Is lhat a cotton crop of 9,000,000 bales next year will bring about a cotion famine. Germany alone reports a need of 4,500,000 bales. No country is whipped until she be lieves she is whipped. France and Belgium were defeated but not licked, because they never thought that they were licked. Germany was beaten be cause she knew she was a goner. The American naval experts are planning a huge battleship, combin ing the armor of the dreadnaught with the speed of the battle cruisers. This will start a new race in naval programs. j VICTORY LIBERTY LOAN J I f 1 irate Heart of the Cora Belt ilALF of all of the com raised in the United States is raised in the territory directly tributary to the Omaha market.
