The list warm, spring days have como and school work is almost drudgery. They are just .the days to take a long hike out in the country or wander about the campus arguing whether to go to class or not. The campus benches are beginning to blossom out with de voted couples and wayward "students." But alas, mid-semesters are only three days away and the delinquency committee is seldom taken with spirng fever. We hate to have to be a joy killer, but we want you to remain to finish the semester with us. Let's not throw up the sponge yet. Begin to study for those exams now for loitering and spring breezes will prove fatal to the best of intentions. KEEP AT IT, GIRLS! The 1920 Cornhusker campaign started off with a whoop and we rejoice to see the enthusiasm and friendly rivalry among the four teen teams competing for first place. About forty "co-eds" most effi ciently "covered" the campus and checked in a large list of names. This annual campaign is one of the most successful methods of deter mining the real Nebraska student loyalty, and so far the student body has not fallen below our expectations. But today and tomorrow will be the real test, for then the first flush of enthusiasm will die down and many solicitors may become discouraged. The proof of your school patriotism and true worth of character will come out in this trial, for the ones who stick to the post now are the dependable individuals. Above all, if you do not have the time or inclination to continue selling, do not discourage others, for they may be able to carry on the contest to a most suc cessful close. Just Because you were able to sell a large number of books last year and have not been so fortunate this time, is no sign that some other person can not make your former record. Talk for the year-book at any rate! HOW DO YOU LIKE SIMPLIFIED SPELLING? An interesting letter appearing In the paper today is a curious example of the much discussed method of simplified spelling. Many people have argued for and against the system until it is quite a well known question. We all will agree that it Is most aggravating to have to spell out "thorough" in a rhetoric theme for the rhetoric de partment here, when at some other institution, we might write "thoro," and there are many more as complicated words still required by educators today. Of course, many of the new words would be as difficult to become accustomed to as the old, for It is too true that a fact once learned, either right or wrong, Is not quickly unlearned. Commercial writers have made use of this idea for some time, especially in the subject of Short-hand, which is taught by rote, or the sound of the words, rather than sight They Insist that, once learned, it is so much more plausible than the old .spelling that It far over-balances the many objections ot the "old-school" disciples. We are not especially prejudiced either way, but we would like to hear some student opinions on the subject What do you really think of It? mAMW tvtav WEAR LAST YEAR'S GOWNS IVY DAY The Black Masques have evolved a plan whereby the Ivy Day expenses can be somewhat lessened this year. They decided that the gowns which the senior women and undergraduates wore last year In the Ivy Day exor cises would be appropriate for use this year. The gowns last year cost a large amount, and materials have soared since last May. Books will be placed on a table In the gymnasium and library where women who have' last yeart gowns at their disposal, may register. This Information Is de sired at an early date, in order that definite plans for the 1920 Ivy Day program may be formulated.
