THE SENIOR CLASS GIFT
At a recent meeting of the Senior
Class Gift committee, it was decided
to postpone any definite action ior the
time being, and to call on the student
body for suggestions. If you have
any ideas on this subject, you owe
it to the class to turn them in. Leave
them with T. A. Williams, at the stu
dents activities office.
To start things going, we have a
suggestion. Why does the present
senior class not give the Student Un
ion its first financial boost? It would
be a few years before any material
representation of such a gift would
be seen on the campus. But we know
of no greater present to the school
than the corner stone of a great Stu
dent Union, the corner stone taking
the form of the first substantial do
nation. Think it over.

The leading man with Miss Howell

test his versatility.

the highest art In the theatre by the

With a fine gift of gab he is blessed;
He talks all day long,

MENTIS
If you think The Daily Nebraskan
is a punk sheet, come down and let
us show you some of our exchanges.
THE SHOE FITS
A few days ago, the "Rag" con
tained an editorial on "Students and
Cuss Words." Those of you who had
especially dull classes may have read
it. If so, you will remember that it
referred to three university students
who kept the air blue with their
oaths at the opening of the Western
league. Since then, between thirty
and forty students bave met the edi
tor with an exclamation something
like this: "I didn't see you sitting
so close to me at the game the
other day!"
I cannot sing the old songs,
I cannot sing the new;
My ear has lost its hearing,
And my voice has gone askew.
Have you ever felt like a cab-horse
that has stood out in the rain all
night?
FRANK LONG
WE PUN ONE
When you go up the steps, don't
stair so hard.
GLOOMY WISH
wish I were a pot of paste,
All nice and white and thick;
would not have to use such haste,
For I could join all things so quick.
WEATHER FORECAST;
THE OFFICIAL DOPE
From this day, henceforth, an offi
cial weather forecast will appear in
this column. The weather is a topic
of common interest to all of us, so
here goes, w(h) ether you like it, or
no.
For Tonight: Partly cloudy; pos
sibly light frost.
ANOTHER "FORD" STORY
A Beta freshman who was "calling"
at a sorority house, one rainy night
not long ago, left his raincoat in the
hall, along with other garments of
the same "denomination." The hours
sped speedily by, and when 10:30 ap
peared on the scene, freshie, fearing
frowning chaperon, grabbed a coat
and hastened homeward. Noticing for
the first time that the sleeves were
abbreviated to some extent, and that
there was an unexpected belt across
the back, he hoped that he would get
home before the owner noticed its dis
appearance. But when, in the dim hall
light, he discovered in the pocket, a
postal card addressed to a well known
freshman girl, the horrible truth
burst upon him with tremendous
force. Next morning, long before the
breakfast bell, the horrid culprit
stealithly left the coat on the front
porch of the sorority house, and the
unsuspected owner wondered how she
could ever have left her coat out all
night.
Who are they? Well, it wouldn't
be hard to guess.
When we study our lessons till mid
night, And then sleep all the next day,
We are almost convinced that it real
ly might
Be better to do nothing but play.
