ALUMNI NOTES
Rachael E, Hahnes, '10 has been
transferred from Columbia, Mo., to
College Station, Texas. She is to have
charge of a government seed labora
tory at that place.
. Dr. Francis Long, '06 is now at the
Desert Laboratory of the department
of Botanical Research at Tuscon,

F. E. 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

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.
