Barbs Monday.
The meeting of the Associated
Barbs called for 1 p m esterdny had
to be postponed on account of a lack
of a quorum. Since their defeat at
the bands of the frals in the Athletic
Board flection the Interest in the or
ganization seems to have fallen to low
tide and now enthusiasm enough to
gft a quorum out at the time of elec
tion of officers can not be aroused.
However, the offices do not seem to
-lack--ftttplruntH nmPIt Is probable that
the final attempt, which will be made
Monday, will prove successful.
Vacation Tuesday.
A full diyy's vacation has been grant
ed by the University authorities for
Tuesday, May yo. The object of the
vacation is to allow the students and
professors to observe, Memorial Day.
A Success

A great many complaints have come
from over the state to Professor Bes
sey in regard-! o a yellow hop clover
which is very common as a weed In
alfalfa fields. Apparently the alfalfa
seed sold in Nebraska has been adul
terated with seeds of this little clover.
Although harmless, it is practically
worthless.
