TKLL, Klmer. you have the ad
vantage of me. You see, I
don't know who you are. In any
case, you seem thoroughly fa
miliar witn Die, "the splendid edu'
rational sytem," "old American
institutions" and all the finer
things of life. I'm sorry, but 1
find myself decidedly at a loss,
when t-onftonted by your strangle
hold upon the eternal verities.
However, I will do my best.
You know, Elmer, I wasn't
aware that I had struck such a
death blow to "one of the oldest
of American Institutions .
When I passed the teachers col
lege this morning, they seemed
to be doing business, quite as
usual. Perhaps you took things
a tnfle too seriously, Elmer.
CTILL, there are parts of your
letter tb.it I cannot ignore
Elmer. I read that concluding por
tion of your letter with care, and
then started to examine myself
for those telltale signs of moral
degeneration. Was I becoming a
"thoroughly dangerous person" or
was I not? ThAt was the ques
tion Well, Elaiei. you are right. My
sin has found me out; I'm on the
downward path. I actually swear
occasionally, which is positive
proof that I have departed from
the principles of "clean speaking,"
and I don't think as you do, so I
must have abandoned the "princi
ples of right thinking," as well.
Elmer, tell me. Is there no
hope?
VTHERE is that good old Corn
husker spirit one hears so
much about during the football
season?
Evidently the intangible thing
known as school spirit must be
confined to that particular period
the grid season judging from
the dormancy of students as re
gards other activities.

possible deficit In last year's

that more than 350 copies of
that number are still unsold.
What does all this indicate?
Let's have some letters on this
subject.
