course, a curriculum of studies in
tended particularly for young peo
ple who intend to make farming
their life work, marks still an
other change in Nebraska living
wrought by the war. Many farm
boys are going into the armed
forces, and girls will be called on
to do many of the tasks such a3
tractor and machinery operation
and care, production of pork, beef,
poultry, vegetables like, which
formerly were done largely by
the young men. The change in
plans for the course was the re
sult of the college's wish to help
out in the situation.
Dates are Nov. 30, 1942, to
March 3, 1943, and here again a
change in plans was necessary
because of the war situation. The
starting date is almost one month
later than usual, which will allow
time for farm boys to help pick
Nebraska's bumper crop of corn.

smoking rifle held gingerly in the
quaking hands of a white-faced
member of the Rifle Club.
But she will be white-faced not
much longer because every Tues

4:30 to 5:30 capable instructors
demonstrate the delicate art " of
shooting and caring for a gun.
Talk about being ready on the

Determined practice goes on and
