In 1321. Haute Alighieri, the great
est of Italian poets and one of the
greatest poets that has ever lived, died ;
in Kavenna, Italy. Ho had led a life
of sorrow and disappointment, having,
been an exile from his native city, j
Florence, for nineteen years. He left
to the world as a heritage of the
greatest masterpiece of poetic art and
the most stupendous undertaking in
that field ever attempted by man. The
Divina Commedia. in its conception
and execution, is universally recog
nized as a wonderful poem for all time,
picturing the medieval spirit.
In order that the anniversary of
Dante's death may be fittingly marked
in the annals of this country which
has furnished some of the most noted
students of the Divine Comedy (among
whom are Longfellow, Lowell, Norton,
Parsons and Fay), a Dante Memorial
Association has been form.vl in
America to restore the church of San
Francesco in Kavenna, where Dante
prayed and worshipped during the last
days of his life, and the church from
wliirh lie was buried. His remains

very definite plan In mind as yet con
cerning tho method by which efficient
and speedy exchange might bo mado
possible; perhaps every station could
look after itself and broadcast its own
news, definite hours for such work
being set for each, or perhaps it might
bo better and more satisfactory to
have two or more powerful and some
what centrally-located stations to
which tho others might send their
press by radio early each evening,
there to bo broadcasted at certain
hours.'
"Our present interest, however, is
not with tho method; the general idea
! of co-operation between college papers
and college- radio stations for the
j rapid transfer of press news from
j three to six nights each week is the
'goal toward which we aro aiming and
I tho means can bo worked out later.
For tho present, we would be most
' pleased to know what your opinion is
on the matter, whether you know of
jany such system already under way,
and whether you would be willing and
able to cooperate with other schools,
could such a plan be worked out. If
you are interested in the suggestion,
a reply would be appreciated."

FARM SHIPS LAMBS
TO OMAHA STATION
1921 CORNHUSKER COVER
TO BE ONE OF THE BEST
Tho animal husbandry depar'ni- nt
of the University shipped two hundred
of experimental lambs to Omaha, Tues
day evening. These lambs have been
used in a duplication experiment. pro
fessor W. II. Savin and W. W. Der
ricks accompanied the shipment lo
Omaha in order to obtain data, and
photographs of tho dressed carcasses.
Professor Savin stated that "The
purpose of this experiment was to
study further value of adding corn
silago or linseed oil meal, or a com
bination of these two feeds to thp
standard Nebraska lamb feed in; ra
tion of corn and alfalfa bay, and to
study the value of adding a 50-50 mix
ture of alfalfa meal and cane molasses
to the standard ration plus silage.

cieties as some of the organization0
data has been turned in. For the
numner of 1 ho staff working in this
section poor results have been shown,
compared with other sections wh'ch
are being molded into shape very
nicely.
Another call for pictures of the last
year baseball team is issued to the
students. Whether pictures aro indi
vidual, group or of the games, makes
very little difference as they can be
used to a great advantage by the stnff
Fraternities having cuts of the'r
bouses are asked to turn them in at
the Cornhusker office this week H
possible, as this section of the annnl
is being formed and the cut3 have to
be placed. The Cornhusker office is
open from 2-3 every afternoon.
MANY STUDENTS WORKING
WAY THROUGH UNIVERSITY
Nebraska Not Only School Having
Large Percentage Living By
Own Earnings.
Nebraska University is not tho only
school with a large percentage of stu
dents living by their own earnings.
With the tightened finances prevail
ing now tho student is coining moro
and more to rely upon himself to gain
education. Tho number working part
time has greatly increased this year.
Labor no longer carries with it ostrac
ism from college life. Business men
are picking graduates who have
worked their way through school be
cause they have already experienced
hard knocks and will possess the self
reliance to command big positions.
Testimony to tho number of self
supporting students in Kansas Uni
versity was contributed in a recent
survey of the financial situation made
there. The report fololws:
Approximately fifty per cent of the
money spent by K. U. students in
fi.mi flioir own earnings. Tills is
shown by the answers of 1200 stu
dents who replied to questions sub
mitted by Registrar (!. (). Foster, re
garding their expenditures. The
proportions announced by Mr. Foster
follow:
Personal savings .12','
Earned while In school 17' ',
Received from parents 43' J;
Borrowed ',
Additional light on tho self reliance
of Kansas youth is tho fact that 31
per cent of the K. V. students are en
tirely self-supporting and an addi
tional 23 per cent are partially so.
Naturally more men than women are
able to earn their own way through
school. Seventy per cent of the men
aro either entirely or partially self
supporting.
Decidedly interesting details of
K. U. expenditures are given by stu
dents. Tho uverago amount paid for
board is -G.67 a week. The natural
hunger of the youth is proven by the
additional $1.13 spent each week for
extra meals. Within tho last few
weeks, rates at hoarding houses have
decreased.
Average room rent at K. U. is
Fhown to he $9.SS a month. The high
cost of clothing until recently is re
flected by the expenditure of 1."i3.GS
annually for wearing apparel and
shoes. Hundreds of students send
their laundry home. Those who have
it done in Lawrence average $2.S7 a
month in laundry expenditure.
This, then, You say, is but a natural
law
As Your experience shows for two
wholo years,
Ah, Lover, did I weary you with Love'.'
I was your pastime, but You were my
world,
I loved tho hook you touched, the
flower you wore.
Your smile, your laugh, and each pe
culiar "Shoot"'
Which you were wont to say, when
we talked o'er the phone
Not long ago in our homo town.
If you were sad, your mood O'ersln
dowed mine.
And I moved softly, waiting your de
sire. When I. through jealousy, my black
bate unleashed, v
You needs hut sigh for Love, one litil
sigh,
And I in unison with your every pebv
beat turned.
. '
And now, though few the days thai
have passed by,
And scarcely draws the month to it's
untimely close,
All that is changed, and though
My heart still beats in true refrain,
The note's not heard, but passes bv;
Think's you that it will fall on ferti'n
soil,
Or shall it like the rose in Northern
Clime
Wither and die?
Oh! That I should be your happy
slave again,
And this poor heart, how long shall
it lay dead?
Would thrill and waken, just to break
once more.
