TWO
DAILY NKRR'XSKAN
Message to
Congress
(The following Special letter whs sent
hy us late last evening to every ennpress
man representini? the Htate of Nebraska.
It may not represent the view of every
university student such representation
would be Impossible on the part of the
DAILY NKRK .'!h'AN. But It seems quite
the fad these days. Maybe It will be read.
Chances are 100 to ona It may even be
Considered.)
How would you like to be a
hero? How would you like to be
picked out of a muddy ditch and
placed in a fl?g-draped coffin?
How would you like to be laid
in a beautiful white marble
mausoleum with a military sa
lute and the sad, sweet sound
of taps for a lullaby?
The last Unknown Soldier
was a lad like us. He worked
at his job, he studied, respected
his elders, and built his shining
dreams of the future. And then
the Great Chance came. He
grabbed it or had to grab it.
Now he is one of the Immortals.
Now we are the lucky ones. We
too can easily be unknown
soldiers.
The Last Fling
at War-Relief
MOST PEOPLTC like war if it
Isn't too damn close. It's the one
thing with almost universal ap
peal, especially on the other side
looking in.
WHEN HITLER says "JsV to
Chamberlain the newspaper read
ers clap their hands in plee. They
get up five minutes earlier to rend
the mobilizntion plans over the
breakfast table. It's the most ex
citing continued story ever writ
ten and the audience hopes ever
lastingly that it will reach a
smashing climax.
THE CANNON fofkler likes war,
too. Oh, for the life of a soldier,
marching to martial music and
fighting with strong right arm foi
a worthy cause in the name of
patriotism. The problem of mak
ing a living in a dull world is gene
and all cares are transferred to
commanding officers. Carefree
comrades and a job full of thrills.
WHY NOT have war and relieve
the unemployment situation? Why
not have war so we can see jobs
opening up? Why not have wnr
so that the million and one thou
sand can prosper on the stock
market? Then we would all be
happy. Perhaps, that's why we
like war.

THE PSEUDO-SCIENTISTS
want it. And some times it takes
a fine distinction to separate them
from the over-militarized mind.
They all love to talk about radio
controlled bombing planes, new
long range guns, new battle for
mations and other mysterious
weapons of war. They're anxious
to see exactly what will happen
when these wonderous inventions
are given their proper opportuni
ties to wreck construction.

Soon the girls will be showing
the new styles and the new styles
will be showing the girls. This
brines about thesnroblem f what
women should wear and how they
should dress.
-0-0-0-
The way that it appears, the
only way that a girl can dress to
please a man is with the shades
up.
-0-0-0-
Ronieone once said that in girl's
clothing it is the liltle things that
count. And the littler they are the
more they count. But let's look
over the well dressed girl from
head to toe.
-0-0-0-
Women will continue to wear
silk stockings for bullions of
reasons. Kveryone of them a man.
As for underclothes, I can say
this. Not so long Ago, under
clothes were unmentionables. To
day, they are nonexistables.
-0-0-0-
God gave women feet to walk
on. Evidently, the shoe designers
kept this in mind. The new shots
are all feet.
-0-0-0-
And the gowns. Some gowns are
fitting and proper. Most of 'em
are just fitting.
-0-0-0-
Hats? Good lord!
-0-0-0-
Sealskin is the thing in coats.
Five skunks, three cats, a couple
of Spitz dogs, and a stray muskrat
and you have one sealskin.
-0-0-0-
Which can lead to put one con
clusion. Women dress to displease
other women and men are nothing
but innocent bystanders caught in
the onslaught.
As for the women, they simply
dote on war. The tears shed for
sweethearts dressed in snappy uni
forms. Heroic sacrifice. Women
sensational creatures, appreciate
war as the greatest emotional out
let known to mankind. We all do
perhaps.
