Late Societ Notes.
Honlor Clnim I'lirty,
The committee on the senior party
announces that It will be given In the
Armory Friday evening, AprllS. Al
though amusement Is one of the ob
jects of the party, Its real purpose is
to bring the seniors together and makeJ
them better acquainted before leaving
school. It Is often the case that peo
ple will go through school together
for four years without even knowing
that they belong to the same class.
The committee Is hard at work, plan
ning to make this a most ertjoyable
affair In every way. Dancing will be
provided for those who Indulge, and
games and other amusements will be
furnished for the rest. Other inter
esting plans will be developed later.
The average reader of Tho Nebras
kan will be rather surprised to read on
the first page of today's issue the de
cision of the lntor-soclety party com
mittee on the matter of cards and
dancing. Precedent has given such
prestige to University Indulgence in
these pastimes that the reopening of
the question, and especially a decision
in the negative, Is somewhat startling.
Does the new departure mark the be
ginning of a reaction, or is It merely
the temporary dominance of the non
card playing and dancing element?
Tho majority of denominational col
leges place strict prohibitions upon
these amusements, although they per
sist to a large extent, secretly, In spite
of the restrictions; but student senti
ment in the majority of state institu
tions has long .endorsed dancing and
cards, and reproduced In miniature the
social life of the non-college world.
The NebraBkan has no particular com
ment to make upon the action of the
committee, but will watch with consid
erable Interest its working out in
actual practice, and the action of future
committees on the same question.

College newspaperdom has been con
siderably interested of late in The
Bookman's article on "College Jour
nalism," but has passed over some
rather Interesting facts it contained
almost without comment. Nearly
every paper has called attention to tho
fact that Yale and Harvard dailies
make $5,000 or $6,000 profit yearly, and
pay somo of their editors as high as
$400 salary. But none mention the
very evident fact that the Yale Dally
News, for Instance, Is little else than
an advertising and announcement bul
letin, and almost no "news-papr" at
all. Out of four pages, three are p"rac
tleally Bolid advertising, and the re
maining one Is oyf r two-thirds devoted
to committee and other announce
ments. What the high-salaried editors
have to do Is rather a mystery. The
west is proverbially generous, and all
of its college dallies have large space
devoted to more or less legitimate
"news." Doubtless a few years will
find them inclining toward k eastern
methods, and beginning to accumulate
profits Instead of deficits for their busi
ness managements. That this would bo
a desirable state of affairB hardly any
one will want to deny; but that it
necessitates so thorough a suppression
of the news features as It has produced
at Yale will not be so readily admitted.
There is a golden mean to everything
even to .college Journalism.

Saturday evening the Palladian girls
entertained the Palladian boys at sup
per In Palladian hall. Sixty-four
happy-hearted Palladians were present.
The hall was prettily decorated with
plants and paper napkins. The south
end was shut off by screens and filled
with sixteen round tables, artistically
covered with the daintiest of paper
napkins and laid with china and silver.
When the signal for supper was given
tho screens were taken away and the
boys had a merry hunt for their places,
which were designated by means of
unique place cards. When all were
finally seated, the feasting began, and
the hall rang with the sound of merry
voices. It was as if a large family
had gathered together at supper after
a week of separation. The feasting
over, the toasting began. Mr. Edward
Rowe, '03, acted as toastmaster. Mr.
RufiiB Woods talked about "The Other
One" In a bright, amusing manner.
Mrs A. R. Waters' toast. "If Only."
was in rhyme and whb enjoyed by
everyone. Mr. Newell Elliott talked on
"Palladian Joy" a broad subject, but
well treated by Mr. Elliott. Miss
Emma Shinbur toasted the Palladian
boyB, and Mr. Louis Lightner did the
same for the Palladian girls. The
Palladian boys then rose and as the
toastmaster proposed the toast to Pal
ladian girls, drank to the tune of clink
ing glasses. The remainder of the
evening was spent In music, conversa
tion and progressive jackstraws. Pal
ladian spirit was higher than ever, and
when "going home time" came, sing
ing "John Jones" with unusual vim,
the Palladlans left the hall feeling that
to be a Palladian Is greater than to be
a king, and each loyally saying in his
heart, "Vive la Palladian." P.

That a University dance can be suc
cessfully held in the armory was clear
ly demonstrated Saturday night. The
band 1b to be congratulated upon the
successful arrangement and completion
of their plans, and upon tho general
outcome of the dance. As advertised,
tho program began at 9 o'clock, and
lasted until midnight. It consisted of
sixteen regular dances and five extras,
which were bo well timed that the prfl
gram and Saturday night ended at ex
actly the same moment, and the Sab
bath was unbroken.
There were about eighty paid admis
sions, but as a large number of these
consisted of "stags," the floor was not
crowded at any time. The committee
had made excellent arrangements, and
the armory was admirably fitted up for
the occasion. The floor was well waxed,
.and except for two large bumps on
either side which required the dancers
to make a flying leap whenever they
came to tho defective places, It was
well suited to dancing. The office of
the physical director was fitted up as
a dressing room for tho gentlemen,
while the commandant's office served
in the same capacity for the ladles.
The party was chaperoned by Professor
and Mrs. E. H. Barbour. Quick's
orchestra furnished the music. Mr.
Ralph Jenne was master of ceremonies
and Mr. MaJcomb Campbell chairman
of the committee.
A pleasing feature of the party was
the fact that the dancers were for the
most part University students. It was
feared by some that on account of the
low price of tho tickets, the affair
would be patronized by an undesirable
down-town element. Such was not the
case, however, Saturday night, and the
fact should be emphasized that only
people connected with the University
are wanted. The crowd that attended
was the best in school, and If the first
dance Is anything of an indication of
what the rest will be, we predict that
the band informals will be looked for
ward to as tho most pleasing of Uni
versity affairs. Tho band realized a
neat sum as the result of their efforts
and it is hoped the second party will
be given in two weeks as proposed.
