It was too good a thing to be dropped; can it not be revived Every day The Nebraskan receives a letter or two from former Corn huskers asking that the paper be sent them so that they may "keep in touch with Nebraska." The let ters come from everywhere from coast artillery posts on Puget Sound to concentration points in Maine. Always the request is the same, al ways it is for news from home. Some day The Nebraskan hopes to print a complete soldier mailing list, so that students may see just how many former classmates are in the country's service. But to make this possible it will be necessary for everyone to help by sending lists of names and addresses to the business manager of The Nebraskan, in the office of student activities. Students at the first football rally yesterday heard that Iowa has a slogan, one that is being instilled this week into the blood of every Hawkeye. Nebraskans have long known the cry, "Iowa Fights," and have respected the vigor with which it was carried out. But Nebraska, too, has a battle cry. one which is particularly apropos this season. Our obstacles are not insurmountable, but they are so huge that it will re- might have repressed in a "calmer frame of mind. At any rate, this is what he said to Admiral Dewey in 1S9S, as faithfully reported to the government, in the archives of which the report has since lain: " 'About fifteen years from now my country will start a great war. the will be in Fans about two ' months after the commencement of I hostilities.

We do not purpose to j take any of your territory, but we do intend to take a billion or so of your dollars from New York and other places. The Monroe Doctrine will be taken charge of by us, and we will dispose of South America as we wish. Don't forget this. abotU fifteen years from now.! "The German admiral was a good prophet. Sixteen years from the date of his prophecy Germany start ed her 'great war." the war that was to crush France and England and every other nation that stood in her path. The war has not gone exactly as the German admiral predicted. There have been some delays and some obstacles that were not antici pated. For one thing, the United States did not wait until Germanv iad finished her work in Europe, to off New i ' York. There were some Americans who advocated that course, but ! events overbore them.

For filling sol diers' boxes, an old fashioned "pound party" might be worth trying, each rue?t being a?ked to bring a pound of supar or a gift to put in a sol dier's Chri-trr.as box.
