the speakers will be on hand, cow

HAND GRENADES
ANY NEWS TODAY?
, What a gay and giddy time you
have getting news for the "Rag."
Every noon you launch upon a ir.nd
career of telephoning. You call ever."
one you have ever known. You call
many you have never knovn. nnd
never will know. In fact, you spnre
no one. You know more telephone
numbers by memory than any other
one person in the world. "Have you
any news for the Daily Nebraskan?",
has become such a habit, that at the
table you often ask for news Instead
of sustenance, which often results
in food for thought, which is all very
wel, but not exactly nourishing. .
. And how do people respond to your
implorations (No, I don't believe that
Webster mentions that word, oui
what of it? It merely indicates that
I'm one ahead of him.) for news!
Well, some of them are very nice,
and in their efforts to please, mey
resurrect ancient history for you.
Others, honor you with a surly, "No
news," and hang up the receivers
with a bang! Others create brilliant
and sensational stories, which be
speak imaginations worthy of culti
' vation. Then there are those who
would carry on flippant conversations
with you, and those whose mlndc act
so slowly that your hand clutching
the telephone receiver is well-nigh
paralyzed by the time one bit of
news has been imparted to you.
After an hour or so thus, you wend
your way to the office to write up the
choice bits which you have collected.
There, you find all of the typewriters
in use. You wait for nearly an hour,
and then for some time laboriously
pound out your items. The lime
passes pleasantly with People-Who-
Know-More-Than-You suggesting fui
provements in your work, and calling
attention to certain flaws in your
previous work "which must never ap
pear' again."
You hand your completed effort to
the managing editor, who, wita a
scornful, "Is that all you have to
day?" proceeds to dull the point of
his pencil in making corrections on
said effort, during which time you
. stand in worm-like silence.
Wearily you Journey home. Ihe
next day the paper comes out wiih
not as much as a symptom of your
handiwork. It seemed that the ne vs
editor lost it the night before when
he was transporting it from the
office down to the printers.

WILSONISMS
What have been the use of var's
sacrifices if we cannot confront the
problems at our own door?
Nothing in the way of force can
save America.
Paganism, and I speak of the es
sence of paganism, is that which
uses human beings as the means with
which to obtain an end for private
gain. It is the symbol of disrespect
for the human race.
Only some great statesmanship
some great spiritual effort can save
America.
The power of God alone can save
the human race.
We face a basic, significant hour.
What Is to happen will be recorded
sacredly in history's pages. God only
knows what our fate is to be
MUSICAL COMEDY IS
ATTRACTION AT THE
ORPHEUM THIS WEEK
A bit of fun making, some clever
camouflaged musical comedy and a
few worthwhile songs combine into
an attarctive program at the OrpLeum
this week. A musical comedy entitled
"Putting It Over" heads the bill.
Jack Gray and Marie Norman open
the program with a varied vaudeville
skit, a little playing, a little singing
and some remarkably good dancing.
The four dancing Kewpies are an en
tertaining diversion featuring the act.
Nell ockwood gives a pleasing in
terpretation of dialect ditties. She
sings popular songs, deftly changing
her coice to strong Irish, Italian and
African accents with enough variety
to be interesting.
One of the most remarkable acro
batic exhibitions ever seen on the
local Orpheum stage is presented oy
Long Tack Sam and his company of
Chinese phenoms. The lithe per
formers mystified the audience with
their Juggling and spinning and
wound with some marvelous gymnas
tic feats. Clever Chinese comeqjr
was Interspersed with the perform
ance.
The trials of prohibition were re
hearsed by Johnny Keane and Billy
Walsh who work in some fine speci
mens of real Irish humor with songs
and dancing. The title of their act Is
"From Cork and In Cork" and a dis
sertation upon the subject of "Jazz"
Is an Important part of It.
"Putting It Over" gets Its anima
tion from feministic interpretation
by former soldiers and on6-Ume stars
in New York musical comedies. They
make a decided hit with their imper
sonations. All members of the com
pany served with the 27th division
In France and five of them were cited
for bravery.
Lloyd and Christie, two southern
gentlemen; bring down the house
with some well-told Jokes and Mcin
tosh and bis Musical Maids close the
bill with some good brass music and
delightful songs.
The personnel of the Orpheum man
agement has been Increased by the
arrival of Louis Shlmo.i. who .mes
from Minneapolis to act as treasurer
of the Orpheum here. Mr. Shimon is
a popular song writer and is the com
poser of a number of catchy songs
which have a wide popularity at the
present time. He will be here the
ent're season and he expects to return
next year. i
