Hundreds Visit Farm Campus and
Take in Sights During
Day.
PARADE IS PIG FEATURE
Humorous Floats Prominent of Morn
ing Demonstration Wild West
Show In Afternoon.
Hundreds of people crowded (he
sidewalks on O street yesterday morn
ins when the Farm ore' Fair day
parade, headed by a twenty-five piece
band, stopped transportation for half
an hour. In the afternoon and eve
ning, exhibits, shows, oat ins and danc
ing were indulged in by thousands of
University students and people from
Lincoln and the surrounding towns.
The parade, was a work of art. It
not only depicted what agriculture
means to Nebraska as a state, but
had humorous floats that brought
penis of laughter from (lie interested
onlookers. A complete $5, 000 "still"
which supplied the Yellow Dog Saloon
did much to bring students to the
Farm campus for the day.
A wild west sfmv that outshone
Buffalo Hill's aggregation in its palmi
est days was, the big feature of the
afternoon. SHo shows, too, attracted
the crowds.
The educational end of the fair was
civen a great deal of consideration
this year. Exhibits occupied one
entire floor of the plant, pathology
building. Student-made clothes were
exhibited by the home economics de
partment. Model arrangements for
kitchens and labor savings devices
were shown.
The fancy stock owned by the col
lego was exhibited, including La
Yerna. the champion cow of the state
of Nebraska.
The agronomy department, showed
samples of many kinds of grains,
grain grading machinery, specimens
of grasses and grains, weeds, soils,
etc.
Dancing, on three floors, contri
buted a great deal to the enjoyment
of the people that atteruled.
The fair, although hampered by
Omaha day, the Kansas-Nebraska
track meet, and the "annual" rain,
was a distinct success from every
standpoint.

GORNHUSKER BOOK WILL
APPEAR ON CAMPUS SOON
University Student Annual Crowded
with Interesting Features Sure
x to Score a Hit this Year,
Bulging with pictures, jokes, car
toons anil sketches, the 1921 Corn
husker, a review of the student life of
Nebraska University will appear about
the third week of this month, provid
ing everything runs along as smoothly
as it has in the past, month. Five
hundred and fifty pages of pictures
and reading are devoted to University
student life on and about the campus
during the past year.
The book is made to conform in
shape and size with the regulation
standard. It is bound in leather of
light grey with an imprint of the
Social Science building on the cover
which is finished in a green and red
combination. The announcing of the
dedication will be made the latter
part of this week.
The annual is divided into twelve
sections each representing a differ
ent phase of University activity. The
first section contains pictures of Uni
versity buildings and scenes about the
down-town and farm campuses. Sev
eral additional pages are: devoted to
pictures of the University deans and
a foreword.
One of the most interesting features
of the annual from the standpoint of
the student is the section in which
tho individual pictures are printed of
tne senior and junior classes. One
half of each page is used for group
pictures of the students alphabetical
ly arranged with the names, colleges
and society affiliations on the opposite
half of the page.
The section for athletics is unusual
ly complete. Football heroes, basket
ball players and track athletes are
shown in a bewildering profusion. A
review of the football season of the
Tall of 1920 a continuous procession
of basketball victories and the won
derful record in track work is the
climax of htis department.
Perhaps a larger portion of the
masculine half of the student body is
concerned in the affairs of the mili
tary department than in any other
one phase of college work. Each com
pany received a certain number of
pages in the book. The pictures of
every company with officers will ap
pear. Tho so-called "Kollege Klubs" shows
group pictures of fraternities, sorori
ties and all the varied clubs and
organizations connected with tho stu
dent.
ti.o section devoted to the school
year is a review of the various school
activities of the year, including an
elass activities, such as football, girls
basketball, debating, Ivy day exer
cises, Olympics, dramatics, social ac
tivities and politics.
The last section of the dook stu
dent Life" is the one that comes home
to the average student. In it are
(!,inP,l hundreds of cartoons, snap
shots and sketches of students in their
playtimes. In addition, write-ups will
onmnanv the pictures wnicn win
paint in the true colors many of the
bright lights that attend unive.suy
on.i tiav about the campus. It is
thoroughly characteristic of student
life and represents better than any
other part of the annual the real
undergraduate life. It is the work of
student writers and artists.

DAY PRONOUNCED
ENTHUSIASTIC SUCCESS
Tradition of Visiting Metropolis is
Re-established at UnU
versity.
The tradition of Omaha day was
re-established Friday when six him
rirp.i students traveled to Omaha on
a special train to inspect the indus
tries of the state metropolis in wnicn
they were particularly interested. An
additional two hundred left Lincoln in
nutos and two adopted an aeroplane
as as the most unusual method of
getting there. The special train left
Omaha late Friday night with most
of the six hundred it had carried down
in the morning.
The morning was spent in visiting
the various concerns of interest. The
students from each college had par
ticular places to go that would be
along the lines they are now studying
at the University. Lunch was served
by the concerns through which the
different groups traveled.
No plans were made for the after
noon, except a general sight-seeing
tour which lasted until time for the
big dance which was held at the M. E.
Smith company's establishment.
