Editorial Remarks
The fences around and on the Uni
rrfilty campus since the Senior
Junior attempt to outdo each other In
securing space, have become quite
p:ominent for advertising purposes.
Kven the iron fence alone; the strtx t
has become conspicuous with a sign.
Wo question the propriety of such
advertising, admitting at the same
t'mc that the cause is a good one.
Hut there are many other places just
as conspicuous, just as well adapted
"as tho fence. Yet the sign appears for
reasons unknown ' to us, and people
passing wonder If the janitor will not
soon be putting the towels out on the
Iront fence to dry.
The University Hall tower has
proven an excellent place for signs this
winter , and it also places the sign in
a place where it may be seen by all.
Bulletin boards are also furnished for
advertising purposes, yet the fence re
ceives the preference.

Dear Nebraskan :
It greatly rejoices me to receive
ccples of The Dally Nebraskan and to
get news of the U. of N. so dear to
the heart of every one of her sons
wherever they may be. Hut it isn't

Syria with which your obedient ser

one who handles the "shekels" of th
