BUY TRACK TICKETS.
By purchasing a ticket lor ail U.e
events of the coming track season,
which officially opens April 16 on Ne
braska Field, you wfjl save much
more than, a dollar. These seayou
ticket booklets sell for only one dol
lar. Nebraska, with more than three
hundred men on the cinder patS each
day, bids lair to become one of tb
leading track schools in the country
hi a very short time. You were on
tlie job when i'ootball tickets were
sold; you rallied to the cause when
veu were solicited for basketball
tickets. Track needs your support
too, in order that it may bo assured
that Nebraska's position at the top
in this sport will not be disputed.
Buy your booklet today.
A new twelve-story women's dormi
tory to cost $1,500,000 will soon la
erected at Ohi State University, Co
lumbus, Ohio. This is certainly a
remarkable step forward for Ohio.
The Ohio State Lantern announces
that the building will house more t'.ian
seven hundred girls. It will be the
largest building of its kind In tho
United States. The dream of Nebras
ka co-eds la a dormitory with like fa
cilities. Illinois is not behind the times,
either. A stadium to seat more per
sons than the Yale Bowl is planned.
ACQUAINTANCES.
The acquaintances you make whi'.'
in college are a part of the biggest
benefit a University education lias to
offer. They are easy to make, but
usually they endure forever. It is
true that yo ngain much books, lec
tures, social functions and other Uni
versity entertainments. If ya ncg
lect to make friends, howeverr, in
your mad rush to do many othr
things or to push yourself ahead,
when you finish you will find your
self alone.
Friends made during college da3
are more valuable after graduation,
in a great many cases, than they
are while you are still struggling with
calculus and logic. Many college ac
quaintance has made a stay in a
strange city a pleasant one; many .mi
old friend has helped out with ad
vice and assistance in a business ven
ture. As you go along from day to day,
make acquaintances. It should be your
aim to make a few friends ea"h day.
Beware of the powers that cause you
to forget this new friend's name or
his face. Tho chances are ten to one
that he will remember you and will
make your college career Just a little
more worth while.
THE SAME OLD QUESTION.
Editorials with the heading
"What's the Matter With tho Worl.5
Today?" continue to pop up at '.ntr
vals In various college papers In rl!o
of the fact that this subject has be
come hackneyed. Why waste per
fectly good time asking what's the
matter with the world? If the writer
of such an editorial thinks the world
Is tumbling around space In a topsy
turvy manner, why doesn't he suggest
some means of righting it, instead o
asking the bromidic question: "What's
the matter anyway?"
The world today Is In the throes
of an ordinary perfectly isual reac
tion from the greatest war ever
known to history. It seems to us that
on the whole, conditions are better
now than they have been for years.
Why should we continue to "crarb?"
Aren't prices coming down, hasn't our
boycott been successful, and aren"'
things assuming a normal aspect
again?
If we would try to put on tho coat
of normalcy again ourselves, we
would find that we would be right in
style. Tho world loks funny to some
people today because there are so
many different kinds of coats. Tho
normalcy of an individual makes for
the normalcy of all.
The matter's not with-. the world;
it's probably with you.
WHAT DO YOU THINK OF THIS?
Students at Yale, Harvard, Prince
ton, Chicago, Wisconsin, Illinois and
now at. Ohio just saunter to the Vic-
trola and put on a record of their
most popular college melodies. It has
proved a decided success at these
schools. Fraternities, sororities, dor
mitories and rooming houses report
that their respective college anthem
mixed with a program of Ted Lewis
and Whiteman's Orchestra make I
pleasant sensation.
Why not have such a record at Ne
braska? "Tho Scarlet and the
Cream on one side with the "Chant"
and old U-U-Uni" on the other would
be a record that would live as long
as any memory of your Alma Mater.
Perhaps the University Orchestra,
the Nebraska band or the Southern
Rag-aJazz would be willing to inter
pret these pieces for an all-Nebraska
record.
EDITORIAL OF THE DAY
(Rocky Mountain Collegian.)
EXAMINATIONS AN UNNECES
SARY EVIL.
This is an opinion expressed by
some faculty members and many stu
dents. In some onses it is based on
ictual experience in which better re
sults have been obtained where exams
are not given than where exams have
been given. If the faculty thought
tnat better daily preparation, less
cutting and greater information would
be obtained were no exams given they
would certainly favor it. The stu
dents would favor it knowing they
would give better preparation, get
more out of their courses and do away
with all the attendant evils attached
ti exam giving and ihis is true.
The remedy is simple and effective
and has in it an element of collegiate,
man-to-man spirit which makes it ap
pealing. It is this: At the begining
of every course the professor shall
announce to the class that no exams
will be given and that their grade will
depend absolutely on the quality of
the daily class work.
The result, though it may not, make
K students of every one, will be like
this: Knowing they have no other
recourse the students will aim to have
the day's assignment read and ready
for that day. They will be prepared
for any discussion knowing it's their
one chance to make good. It will
keep up the daily interest and stimu
late greater participation. There are
lew classes, if any, too large to make
this infeasible, so that each individual
record can be clearly kept.
Because of this, unretentive cram
ming will be eliminated, and piles of
uninteresting repetitions of old infor
mation (or lack of it) will not stare
the professors in the face and take
their time and energy every six weeks
or three months.
Parodies
By Adie.
Try this Over on Your Jew's Harp,
I'LL CALL IT SPRINGTIME.
To the Tune of "Springtime."
I'll call It "Springtime"
For all seems fair,
The scent of roses
Perfumes the air,
I'll call it "Springtime,"
Each garden rare,
Is fill'd with lovers,
Their hearts to share,
I'll call it Springtime,"
The classroom chairs,
Are fill'd with dreamers
Without a care,
Would that the "Springtime"
Will never part.
And keep the "Springtime,"
Within each heart

MRS. EDDY SPEAKS
AT VESPER SERVICE
Mrs. Eddy, who ) is here for Ihe
Grace Coppock campaign, started it
at Vespers. She said we were looking
toward a country, China, that is fac
ing a crisis. Napoleon said that when
Ihe giant China rise to his feet the
whole world would understand. Now
China has awakened and there is a
lack if understanding now between
nations. There Is also a lack of love.
What happens io China within these
few years will set mold for Ihe ruture.
This country has a pathetic trust in
Ihe United States partly because she
too Is a republic." We cannot expect
to escape all the choas that is coming
to this world if we refuse to share the
responsibilities. Therefore, we must
help China in her time of need and
one of the best ways is to help Grace
Coppock in her work. We can' do this
not onlv by giving our money but also
by -our enthusiasm. We hope as we
enler upon this campaign that there
will be, besides money, a real enthu
siasm and -a joy of service. We
should feel that we are very near
China. We should also feel a deep
appreciation of Grace Coppock and
her service. We all need to put all
our strength and loyalty into this
campaign, as it is well worth while.
NEBRASKA IN EGYPT
MEETING TONIGHT
(Continued from page one)
done in htat country.
The famines in China have of
course increased the need for funds
there and have made especially urgent
the necessity of not. only keeping the
fll force of workers on the ground
but of bringing over more. Many In
teresting facts concerning the work
there will be told during the week to
University co eds by Miss Lowry, who
has spent some years there and by
Mrs. Eddy who is sent out by the
foreign department of the Y. W. C. A.
One hundred and seventy-five girls
who make up the teams canvassing
for funds for Miss Coppock will have
their headquarters at Ellen Smith
Hall. The University Y. M. C. A.
started their teams out yesterday
afternoon after a luncheon at the
Grand hotel at which Mj. Miller
spoke. Instructions were given to the
captains and a good start made finan
cially toward the goal. The head
quarters of the Nebraska in Egypt
teams will be in the Y. M. C. A.
offices in the Temple.

Weren't we fortunate to be able to
snap this photo of the campus Walt
Rawley just as he was about to
raise Minnie Ritz-Carltons $4.98
silk umbrella for her? Minnie,
who shines sicially in the Slappa
Slappa Banga constellation, is like
wise Scotch so she not only
knows "what's what" but what's a
bargain! You've guessed it that's
why she bought that $4.98 silk
umbrella. Magnanimously, she left
a few for the rest of you. These
umbrellas are all-silk; may be had
in black, navy, dark red, and pur
