Perscrverance in not unliki! many other things for, while it is possible to irpt nlomr without it. ten-fold the work can be accomplished with the aid of it. Perserverance is not nat ural gift; it must be cultivated. Difficulties are mastered by persist ent application of zealous thought and study. Koine was not built in a day; neither is an education to bo obtained in a year, nor a knotty proolem to be solved in an hour. College pre sents many problems that require hours of deliberation, and perserver ance is necessary for their satisfac tory solution. To continue steadily and firmly means to reach the depths and to receive an understanding that is remembered. Half-hearted, incon sistent effort, avails nothing in the long run. It creates only a surface ripple which disappears as soon as the subject is changed, and is prac tically forgotten until approaching ex aminations necessitate some shallow research. Perserverance often results in the burning of midnight oil; lack of it leads to the Orpheum. lutlons to them, and talk at length about thorn with the serious ones In our class. Why needless repetition? The sen iors, :too, begot a viewpoint. They became ready, they thought, to bat tie the world. Is It funny that university men and women have a hard row to hoe when they onter the field of business? They foel that they know nil, can do all and nt once should take over the reins and become the directors of things. No wonder the successful peo ple of today look qulzically pt college men and women and want them to have a year or two of "seasoning" before they work for them, so that the point of view of the world is a part of them. If you don't believe this, what did YOU think of things one, two, or three years ago? COLLEGE ACTIVITIES. A great deal of criticism has been directed to the students of Nebras ka who have been, and are at the present time, engaging in what are called "college activities.' These hc tivities consist of athletics of all kinds, membership in class organiza tions, professional groups, the Y. M. C. A., and work on college publica tions of one kind or another. The biggest complain: is that this participation very greatly 'owers the scholarship of the indinduHi and the school at large. Thi3 is not true. In the first place, the men engag ing in athletics must have had a clean record for an entire year preceding their representing the school. They must be carr;.ng requl.cd num her of hours rt.d must be up in tbem when mi ; team. Most of the professional organiza tions set a high scholarship record which must be met by thoso who de sire membership in souch, groups. The same thing is true of all po sitions on publications, class offices, and committees. In fact, any man or woman at Ne braska who wishes to enter into any activity must keep a scholarship rec ord that is clean from start to finish if it is soiled, there can be no furth er participation until the black mark is erased. In most cases, a good rec ord is made by Nebraska workers. The positions they hold and they seek offer such an allure that they strive harder to "come clean" than if nothing were at stake. If more Nebraskans would enter student affairs, the scholarship rec ord of our school would be raised. Cornhusker Queries Q Has any chancellor of the uni voa-sltv been a graduate of .the school? A Dr. Samuel Avery, '92, Is the first alumnus to serve as chancellor. Q When was the second sorority established at Nebraska? A Delta Gamma was established here in 18S7 as the second sTority. Q What was the first sochl science to be taught in the univer sity. A History was the first social science to be taught here. Q What is the oldest of Nebras ka's, athletics? A Baseball is the oldest of Ne braska's sports. From the very be ginning of the university, baseball contests were held between various classes. An inter-collegiate game with Doane in 1882 is the first out. side contest recorded. Nebraska was victor by a decisive score. WOULD not miss. Gosh! Ain't it fierce? It is not. The Cornhusker8 will be placed on the schodule if they will come for 110,000 or less The Marquette Trib une, Milwaukee, Dec. 2. In spite of the fact that we don't think the team would like the city of Milwaukee, money talks and the athletic depart ment probably understands this kind of talk. There are two reasons why a girl won't speak first; either she doesn't know that recognition must be first on her part or else she Is with some one she doesn't wish to bo seen v. 1th. ment will please do so at once.

EXHAUST While the dairy department of the college of agriculture has conducted numerous inbreeding and linebreed- ing experiments with remarkable re sults, nothing to date can hold a can dle to the following record of a Mr. Carney of Philadelphia. Angus Carney of Philadelphia, who has announced that he is his own grandfather, has his neighbors doing mental arithmetic which makes the age of Ann a mere primary problem. Carney, who is a barber, has com piled the following: I met a widow with a grown daughter and I mar ried the widow. Then my father met my step-daughter and married her. That made my wife the mother-in-law of her fatherin-law and made my stepdaughter my step-mother. My father became my step-son. Then my step-mother, the daughter of my wife, had a son. That boy was of course, my brother, because he was my fath er's son, but he was also the son of my wife's daughter and therefore my grandson. That made me grandfather of my wife's grandson. Then my wife had a son. My mother-in-law, the step-sister, is also his grandmother, because he is her step-son's child. My father is the brother-in-law of my child, because the step-sister is his wife. I am a brother of my own son because he is the child of my step grandmotheij. I am my mother's brother-in-law. My wife Is her child's aunt. My son is my father's nephew and I am my own grandfather. POINT OF VIEW. As seniors in high school we looked with longing eyes toward the Uni versity of Nebraska, and then we made the big step to our college. The short three months of the summer made a great change in our attitude toward the high school. The stu dents there seemed young, they were unexperienced, they were immature we were mighty important. Then we became sophomores How funny we felt at the ideas wo had en tertained the year before! The half baked notions of which we were so proud, seemed ridiculous to us. Our younger and newer brothers and sis ters amused us with their running about, their peculiar sense of values, and their attitude toward the world in general As juniors we again had our ideals remodeled to fit our new position. We cought poise, apparent self-assurance, had or at least' attempted to show mature Ideas n ever problem of the day, present most feasible Bo lt was Friday Last week In i ten OV.;.ck class, And a one O'clock class Was my last I was tired Of the work And I longed For some rest From the drudge Of a week Almost past.

Social Science 105. Dairy specialists of the Nebraska college of agriculture endorse the fol lowing statement which recently ap peared in the Rural New Yorker. "The Dairy cow is bound to step out into the limelight under prevail ing conditions. She is by far the most economical transfer agency for con verting feet into edible solids. Give her 100 pounds of digestible nutri ments and she will yield 18 pounds of edible solids, as against 2.75 pounds of steer. Is it any wonder that the dairy sections of Wisconsin, Iowa and Minnesota are peopled with tenants who are able to pay their bills, whihs the less fortunate beef-maker is look ing about for an animal machine which can function more effectively?"
