THE CHALLENGE
We have at last received a copy of
the Challenge, a magazine published
at New York. It outlines its reason
for existence as follows: "Challenge
is a magazine organized to stimulate
the free discussion of opinion among
American students, to the end that
each American college and university
may become a conscious, informed
and intellectual democracy."
From its preliminary announce
ments, we feared that this paper was
to be subsidized by those philanthro
pists who are active in the Interests
of peace. But the cursory glance that
we have had time to give it indi
cates that we were mistaken.
We are ready at any time to en
dorse any paper that has for its ob
ject the stimulation of the student's
interest In the responsibilities that
gravitate to him as a citizen. A pub
lcation that can gather the best the
college world has in this line and
presents it to the college public is
certainly to be commended. If the
Challenge can do this, without be
coming the slave of any particular
movement it will be a great success.
As Nebraskans, It Is our duty to sup
port this magazine. The subscription
price is within the reach of alL Let's
show the people of the east that Ne
braska is wining to do her part in the
college world.

SPRING VACATION
The approaching spring has contam
inated the campus with germs of
spring fever. Our brains works slow
ly, and our souls grow weary for
the coming camping trips and picnics.
Classes are easily forgotten and
grades become Immaterial.
And yet there are over two months
of school work the hardest of the
year yet to be completed. It be
hooves us, therefore, to accumulate all
the enthusiasm possible, with which
to combat the Inevitable spring
drowsiness.
The Dally Nebra6kan has not been
Immune to the fever. We have the
hottest place on the campus to work,
and have often chosen to use the scis
sors rather than the pen. We will
reform, however, and promise much
of interest to all before the year Is
over. After school begins again, we
will take up the anti-noise campaign,
the Single Tax, Student Union, and
two or three other matters of Im
portance, and push them to their logi
cal conclusion.
BLACK SPOTS
before your eyes are usually
of a purely nervous origin,
while the cause is found in
uncorrected visual defects
which proper glasses only will
remedy. Pleased to talk with
you about your black spots.

STYLE ALL THE WHILE
Who Is that I can see from the class
room.
Her hat at an angle a.-UH;
While the forehead I thought of as
marble
With bangs hanging low is o'erbuilt
A Jacket of spidery fineness,
And shoes of wondrous design;
Can It be that short-skirted person
Is the girl that I used to call mine?
Say, who is that individual,
Witff a hat like the flaps of a sail
Whose coat surely chokes in its tight
ness;
Who is that incongruous male?
His trousers are surely sklnfitting,
A loud necktie, too, do I see;
Can that young man with the glasses,
Be the one that used to fuss me?
So styles change In the autumn.
So styles change in the spring.
And we don't know the friends of
last season,
When bedecked with the changes
styles bring.

WE MEAN THIS
When the girls at Nebraska have
their pictures put in a down town
window, without even an "if you
please" for the Roman mob to specu
late as to the the eight-prize beauties
and all this is a mere advertising
scheme, (though "clever") It Is about
time that a well balanced discrimina
tion be made between propriety and
popularity.
MEN UP IN ARMS
The poor neglected men of the cam
pus are about to rise en masse, to
vindicate the terrible outrage perpe
trated when the girls of this high and
noble institution showed such thought
lessness as to have a "degrading, com
mon vocational conference" and to
actually forgot them for two whole
days.
WE DONT CARE
Now that the ."Phi Bets" have been
chosen and everybody is feeling hap
py, we would like to state, and it
isn't "sour grapes." either, that we
wouldn't have been a P. B. any
way, because "it reely is only pull
after all, you know."
"OWED" TO VACATION
Vacation starts tomorrow.
And all are filled with sorrow
That their roommates win have to
borrow
Some money to get home.
Our new spring hat, or Easter bon
net, Some gloves, a handkerchief with
lace pon it,
A tie, or collar will be loaned.
To get the other "feller" home.
