' Entered at the postofflce at Lincoln, Nebraska, as second class
mail matter under the Act of Congress of March 3, 1879.
For several years, Nebraska has gone through the football season,
undefeated. But anyone who is experienced in football will acknowl
edge that victories and defeats go in cycles, and though Nebraska has
not, up to this time, lost any game, the good luck cannot go on for
ever. We are bound to lose sometime in the future, though the general
trend toward fortune may be prolonged for some time.
If a team loses, it may be for some reason other than the common
idea, a weakness of the team. It may be the strength of the opponents.
Nebraskans have gone out to the games, so filled with the idea
that the team was so perfect that it could not see the perfection of
the other team as well. As a result, our team has been blamed for a
small score when in reality, a little credit should have been given the
opponents.
The spirit, "we will win" is quite fitting and proper, and cannot be
emphasized too strongly, but we should also remember that the other
team is fighting with the same spirit, and the time may come when
their spirit will be greater and more generous than ours, and will
carry them to victory.
The suffrage tea in Faculty hall, Saturday afternoon, was p- in
spiration. Over three hundred women and girls braved the disagree
able weather and attended. It is the beginning of a big movement that
will spread through the University girls, and its influence will be felt
throughout the state. It will be an efficient and effective organization,
one of quiet, dignified influence, not of rattle-brained, red-fire mania.
The- informal dances at the Armory, like the one Saturday night,
are the realization of a big dream that has bew the desire of many a
Nebraska student.
Young people with all their vigor and enthusiasm demand recrea
tion, and they will take it. The informal dances take the place of more
expensive affairs and furnish an alternative for many a person.
Mrs. Bryan was right when she said that nothing can be gained by
being bitter. Men have been known to lose elections because they
knocked their opponents. Knocking only creates a sympathy for the
other person which is inevitably disastrous to the knocker. People
are afraid of those who carry knives in their belts and a small wood
pile on their shoulders.
A gushing person is like a slippery sidewalk. He's dangerous.

Anent Bohemian and All Slavonic
Names
Editor Nebra6kan:
In yesterday's Nebraskan, I noticed
an item concerning Cyril J. Hrbek, but
the name was spelled "Hrbkova." This
is Incorrect for the suffix "ova" accurs
only in feminine names in the Slavic
tongues and is wholly out of place in
masculine names. Thus, the name of
the instructor in Slavonic is ' Hrbkova"
whereas any male member of the fam
ily Is called "Hrbek." In the familiar
Russian name "Pavlova" is another
example of the Slavic method of indi
cating sex pr gender by the "ova"
suffix which merely means that Anna
Pavlova Is "Anna" of the house or
family of "Pavel" or Paul. When the
feminine suffix "ova" is added to a
name ending in "ek" or "el" in the
masculine, the "e" is omitted, making
the complete feminine form not "Pave
lova" but 'Tavlova." If the name hap
pens to be an adjective in origin as
for instance, in English, such names
as "White," "Green," etc., the mascu
line form would end in "y" and the
feminine in "a" since "a" is the typi
cal feminine suffix just as it is in
Cafin. Thus "Bily" (White) masculine,
but "Bila" feminine.
I believe Professor Hrbkova will
bear me out in this as I have seen a
similar explanation of forms in the
grammar in use in the Slavonic depart
ment. V. K. MERLIN.
