Nebraska students will be called
upon this winter to suport one of the
older forms of war relief that has suf
fered somewhat by America's preoc
cupation in the care for her own sol
diers. The importance of th-; provi
sion for French war orphans has net
been minimized by our participation
in the struggle. America is still the
only country which is in a position to
furnish financial support tor the desti
tute, fatherless families of France,
and the fact that she must also add to
her burden cares of her own does not
in any way lessen her first duty.
Although this country has already
taken care of some 45,000 children for
the coming winter, 100,000 more are
yet to be provided for. Students who
have been concentrating their con
tributions on the Red Cross and the
Y. M. C. A. war work should not for
get the importance of this succor for
our great but prostrate ally.
While meatless and wheatless days
have been observed more or less gen
erally by University students, another
form of war economy almost as im
portantthat of saving sugar for
France has escaped our general at
tention. Few of us seem to realize
the need for the conservation of this
pleasant-tasting food despite the proc
lamation of Food Administrator Hoov
er and the present local shortage in
the sugar supply. The situation is
locally and nationally so important
now that students will have to aban
don an old-time form of war relief
revenue the making and selling of
candy. Soldiers of France need it in
its original form as much as they
need other things that money gained
from the selling of candy will buy
them.
The University administration has
taken the lead in this sugar conserva
tion and now candy will not form a
part of the refreshments at All-University
parties, nor will it be served
at the teas for co-eds given by the
dean of women. We may follow this
lead in a number of ways. University
men really need no more to explain
why they do not take a box of candy
along on Sunday evening dates, and
co-eds should not expect the continua
tion of the custom, and since meatless
and wheatless days are steps we have
succeeded in taking without the loss
of health, is it radical to assume that
sugarless days are impossible.
A great man whose influence Ne
braska University was fortunate
enough to feel was lost to the world
' in the death of Chancellor Emeritus
E. Benjamin Andrews. An economist
of international reputation, a deep
student and writer of American his
tory, a profound scholar in classical
and modern literature, he was more
than that to us. It was under his ad
ministration that Nebraska started on
her rapid progress upward in enroll
ment and prestige among the educa
tional Institutions of the country, and
it was under the influence of his per
sonality that hundreds of youthful
minds, reaching out for world knowl-
: edge, were stimulated to feel ambition
and Inspiration which but for him they
might never have known. So ger
mane was his Influence that it may
well be compared to the wonderful ef
' feet of Coleridge or the younger Eng
lish writeri of the nineteenth century
The example of his life was also a
stimulent. Youth found in his roman
, tic career an example of the fighter
carrying his battle into the field of
culture and knowledge, of a sturdy,
outspoken soldier tackling the deep
est problem of society with the same
unflinching, vigorous, honest purpose
that sent him out at the age of seven
teen to fight for the life of the Union.
It was such a man that the world
lost in his death; it was such a spirit
that those who knew him will never
allow to die.

Born in New Hampshire
Chancellor Andrews was born in

He prepared for college at the Con
necticut Literary institute at Suffield.

battle of Petersburg, August 24, 1S64.
he was severely wounded and lost the
sight of an eye.
In 1S66 he entered Brown university

Germany to study history and political
economy in Berlin and Munich univer

university. In 1SSS he was made

this high position and then he went to
Chicago to accept a position as super
intendent of the public schools.

University of Nebraska, and held that
position for eiglit years.
A Notable Career
During his work as an educator he
was a member of the international
monetary conference which was held
to membership in the Loyal Legion.
He was author of several volumes
whih have become recognized as au
thoritative on subjects both in history
and political economy. Some of his
most important works are. "Institrtes
of Constithtional History, English and
eral History," 18S5, 1S95; 'Institdtes
American," 18S4; "Institutes of Gen
Dollar," 1S94; "Wealth anr Moral

Following his retirement from ac
tive work, he journeyed to Italy with
the hope that the change of climate
would benefit his health. For some
time he remained in Italy and then
traveled throughout Europe. He re
turned to America a few months ago
and remained in the east visiting rela
tives in Massachusetts. A short time
ago he returned to Lincoln. During
the past few years he has made his

SQU'RREL FRU'T
Dear Folks:
Don't you think the Rag has had too
many Jokes in lately? Its a pood
thing to laugh part of the time but
not all the time. Now, bfore I es
caped from Lancaster, life was jast
one round of pleasure. This Is, with
one exception. There were bars, bars
all about me, but not a drop to drink.
Since then, my mind has dwelt upon
thoughts both serious and sad. I feel
it my duty to lend a touch of serious
ness to the hitherto rolickins columns
of this paper.
Seriously yours.
IMA BEEG KNUTT
P. S. Ima is not my real name.
That's what they called me out at
Lancaster. Sort of a pen name, you
know.
T think we ought to have something
sad to start with. About the saddet-t
thing I know of next to a senio'- is a
funeral. I can't think of anything to
say about a senior so I guess I'll write
about a funeral.
IN MEMORIUM
Ah, woe is me. woe is me.
Silently the crowds stand around
the bier.
Women are weeping softly, strong
men are wiping tear dimmed eyes.
Student Council is Dead!
Slowlv the procession moves. The
faculty walk beside the hearse with
uncovered heads. The grief Is too
great to be borne. Women wail and
tear their hear. Tears are flowing in
torrents, splashing on the pavement
with the roar of a cloudburst.
Student Council was loved. Had
they not cast their votes for him in
the -soring? Had not the faculty
welcomed him as a friend? But he is
dead. Dead.
A ray of hope thrills the vast multi
tude for a second. Can Student Coun
cil die, No, he cannot die, he never
was born.
The falling of tears swells to a
Niagara.
Alas, alas, woe is me.
Now that Nebraska is dry it does
not seem fitting for students to be
standing around the bier.
A Poem
Lives of Seniors oft remind us
We can make our lives sublime,
And by asking foolish questions,
Take up recitation time.
I didn't make up this poem. I can
write lots better poems but I can't
think of any right now.

The team taking part in these dairy

the hearty appreciation of all good
