QUIZZES THAT ARE SPRUNG.
The reports for the first quarter,
containing four weeks of work, are
due at the beginning of this week.
When students in a number of classes
reported for recitation Friday several
professors announced that they would
bo compelled to give quarterly quizzes
so that the grades for the first four
weeks may be computed.
In a few instances these blind ex
aminations, for which the students
had had not chance to prepare, con
sisted of from five to ten detailed
Questions. These tests-were to count
as the baris of theflelinquent reports
which are due tomorrow in the office
of the Executive Dean.
In fairness to the student, when the
instructors know by this time exactly
when the quarterly reports are due,
should they not give them a warning
that these examinations are in store
for them?
SIGN YOUR STUDENT OPINIONS.
The Paily Nebraskan welcomes stu
dent thought on questions and is glad
to record this thought in the Student
Opinion column. However, ? number
of student opinions are being re
ceived each day without any signa
tures affixed to them. After this, all
student opinions that are submitted
to the daily for publication mst be
signed by the person who writes
them. If the writer desires that his
name shall be omitted when the
article is published, he will also be
allowed to affix a nom de plume.

THE SUNDAY "RAG."
With the exploitation of the Sun
day morning "nag," a new custom has
teen Instituted at the University of
Nebraska. News will be served hot
to University students. The happen
ings of Saturday which are all cold
when they appear In the Monday
morning Nebraskan will be real news
when they make their debuts In the
Sunday morning paper.
Perhaps this system will aid Sun
day morning sleepers to forsake their
couches. Perhaps It will make the
paper seem more cosmopolitan, with
Its Fix or eight pages. We think the
students will co-operate with the staff
in making the Sunday morning paper
a success.
EDITORIAL OF THE DAY
THE BUSINESS WORLD AND
BETTER ENGLISH.
(University Daily Kansan.)
Many a man has lost an opportunity
to secure a position because his
collar was dirty, or his shoes were
unshined, and many a woman has lost
her chances because her dress was
untidy or her hair noticeably fussy.
Sometimes a man's manners have left
him seeking a position. Likewise, the
way a person talks, the effectiveness
of his speech, Is a deciding factor in
the success of any one who goes Into
the business world. The ability to
speak good English Is no little asset
for the young man or women who
goes out from college, and attempts
to get a position. And effectiveness
of speech requires first of nil, a
vocabulary and the ability to use It
correctly.
