Nearly two hundred Juniors and Seniors were interested enough in the experiment of an itner-class break fast to arise early enough to catch a 7:30 car for the State FannSa turday morning. The Juniors provided a breakfast that could not fail to satisfy even the discriminating Seniors. It was pleasant morning lark and every one seamed to enter into the spirit of the occasion. This affair deserves to become an annual event. ON TIME The appearance of the 1915 Year Book on time comes as a pleasant eurprise to most students. In former vears the management each time promised the book for May 1st or May 15th and there was usually a month of postponed promises and the book distributed but a few days before the close of the school. But this year itrue to their word the editors and managers! have given us the book on time. This achievement is worthy of considerable mention for it required much extra time and effort. Editor Daily Nebraskan: We were certainly astounded by Mr. Hill's curt refusal to answer Mr. Kyle's question. The question was a fair one. put in a fair manner, and de- eerving a fair answer. Mr. Hill de fends himself or rather evades the question altogether in a most in glorious manner with the comical plea that his article was "clear." Sad to say, unsound ideas have far too often won support by being expound ed in a "clear" manner, tl is not a question of clearness at all. It is a question of right or wrong. One does not have to agree with Mr. Kyle in order to take such a position. j Of course it was very apparent that . Mr. Kyle's question was a very perti-j nent one. If "these acts of 'saluting' or 'standing are indications of patriot- ito e cnosen. The Girls' Club nominated the fol lowing for members of the board for the coming year: Freshmen Jean Burroughs.

From this list five Juniors, four Sophomores, and four Freshmen are The Juniors having and things for good," there isithe highest number of votes is presi- SUNDAY THEATRES University students seem to be more or less indifferent about the question of Sunday theatres. It is most certain that they have shown no disposition to indorse the idea. The average stu dent has his time so occupied now that the prospect of having still more places to go can scarcely interest him. But there are some fundamental points involved in this the solution of this question that we as citizens ought to consider. Aside from the moral and religious side of the ques tion which we must admit is worthy of consideration there is the danger in this step of moving in the direc tion of state of society that will not recognize the value of one day's rest in seven. From a purely commercial standpoint anyone knows that a week cffer aj ism absolutely no reason why they should be discontinued after the army and navy are abolished.- If, on the other hand, "these acts of 'saluting' or 'standing' are indications of patriot ism and things for the good'' only while the army and navy exist, their "good" is certainly only of ephemeral value, a mere tribute to pomp and splendor, and not an indication of true patriotism as Mr. Hill in his first article contended. The fallacy in Mr. Hill's first article seem6 to have been fairly well exposed. If Mr. Hill could not answer he should at least have admitted that much. let he clings tenaciously to his argument despite the fact that its fallacy has ben exposed. All he is doing in effect is clinging to the wreckage of his shattered bark, with the excuse that since it is his, he is is going to hang on even if he has to go down, altogether unmindful of the fact that he knows his position is un tenable. Tt Is not exactly right that he should go down with hist ship out of sheer love for it as long as Mr. Kyle is standing by valiantly, ready to with one day of rest is the most effective. The adoption of this pro posal may not materially affect the most of us directly,, but we need con sider the position of many people to whom the adoption would mean seven days work in every week instead of ix. More than that it is the first step PHI BETA KAPPA KEYS . We make Fraternity jewelry of all kinds. We carry Monogram and Crests for 15 Fraternities and Sororities (gold and silver) in stock. HALLETT Uni Jeweler Est. 1871 1143 O Mr. Hill closes with this bit of phil osophy. "However, we might men tion the fact that sometimes the truth hurts like everything." Yes indeed! Perhaps that is why he failed to an swer, lie first refuses to answer a question which was raised to deter mine the "truth" of his argument. Then in this rather philosophical man ner he suddenly declares, by way of intimation, that his argument is the "truth." hinting that the occasion of his article is one of those times when the word "sometimes" is applicable. We have absolutely no objection to Mr. Hill becoming a philosopher. Oh no, go1 ahead! All that we ask is that Mr. Hill square his evasive conduct with a study so profound as philos ophy, if for nothing else, at least to avoid the appearance of the ludl crou8. The question is yet unanswered dent; the next highest, vice-president; the Sophomorehaving the highest is secretary, and the Freshman with the most votes is treasurer. Next year the Mid-West Inter-collegiate Association for Women's Self Government, of which Genevieve Lowry is president, meets here the last of April or the first of May. Be cause of this fact, a change was made in the Constitution (Art. 4, Sec. 1) as follows: Election hereafter to beheld on the third Friday in April, instead of the first Thursday in May.
