THE FIRST PRODUCT
In less than a month after the
w heels of the Nebraska unit of the stu
dents' army training corps began to
move, the first product has been turn
ed out. Twenty-nine members of the
corps, selected as the most fit of one
hundred fifty men, will leave the lat
ter part of this week for officers' train
ing camps if influenza quarantines are
lifted. It is the first product of the
new University mill and the best wish
es of eyery Cornhusker goes with
these soldiers as they leave for higher
training.
The men who were selected are the
men who have shown especial fitness
both 1h the scholastic work and in
their leadership in the short time they
have been in training. They have
found that hard work, mental alert
ness, physical fitness and soldierly
manners have won for them the oppor-
tunity to try for commissions and it j
is certain that if they keep these j
things ever in mind while in the offi
cers' camp they will succeed.
Calls for men will be received near
ly every two weeks for members of
the S. A. T, C. who wish
to enter '
these camps and it is the men who
have their work up to the minute and
who have followed every detail of in
struction who will be chosen. The
man who Bluffs along may be sent to
enter active service in a shorter time
but he will have a hard fight to ever
rise above the ranks of a jrivate. The
man who leaves the University with
a rating of "good" or "excellent" will
find that his way is paved to further
advancement.
Just how Coach Kline will be able
to develop a winning team at Nebraska
with the conditions under which he
is working would puzzle the wisest.
The past week of practice has been
handicapped by the illness of half-back
Schellenberg and the part-time ab
sence of half-back McMahon who w as
called to Great Lakes as a result of an
error ia his enlistment papers. Quarter-back
Lantz and Ross and Dana in
the line have been out of the game be
cause of sickness or injuries. Al Du
Teau, varsity left tackle, has left for
training in naval aviation on the Pa
cific coast. Cypreansen, .who won a
place as varsity end, and McCoy, are
named among those who leave the lat
ter part of this week for an officers'
training camp.
Camp Ftinston is coming to Lincoln
next Saturday with an eleven com
posed of practically all Star men.
Fun Eton has played several games al
ready this season and every man will
be in tie best of trim for the battle.
This is not "dope," but real facts
which should show cvery Cornhuskfr
the prospect which X -braska faces
this wcX and the necessity for every J

Here are some comments on the Kai
ser from the rpn of a Chinese stu
dent: "The German Kaiser la not a
superior Man as deciphered by the
Chinese literature; he is surely a
mean fellow containing much fiendish
tunning In his decelted heart. The
Superior Man Is shown in the merits
of excellent heart lth much loving
kindness to all peoples; the mean
fellow Is displayed in th black heart
of the unregenerated devils of the
hell with much loving kindness only to
h'inself. In the history of China was
a emperor w ho burned the books and
slew the scholars to extinct the civil
U .tion of the peaceful Inhabitants;
!;ut he was net success In this crafty
tricks, for the civilizations could nev
er be extinct by such dlshonable bar
barism means. Now the German Kai
ser he also awfully wishing to slave
the people and extinct the civilizations
of the universe; he also destroy the
literature books, and the arts, and the
snips, and mess the people of allied
nations. But he will not succeed."
GENIUS
Genius is only the power of making
continuous efforts. The line between
failure and success is so fine that we
scarcelv know when we pass it; so
1 fine that we are often on the line and
! do net know it. How many a man his
j thrown up his hands at a time when a
little more effort, a little more patl
f nee would have achieved success. As
the tide goes clear out, so it comes
! clear in. In business, sometimes,
! prospects may seem darkest when
I really they are on the turn. A l'ttle
j more persistence, a little more effort.
and what seemed hopeless failure may
turn to glorious success. There is no
failure except in no longer trying.
There is no defeat except from within,
no really insurmountable barrier save
our own inherent weakness of pur
pose. The Fra.
THE MESSAGE OF THE LISTS
Most of us now turn first of all to
the daily roll of sorrow and of honor
whtich every paper in cur land is
proud to tarry. You can see elderly
men hanging around the front yard
an hour ahead of breakfast time wait
ing for the newsboy. They will no:
budge from the gate until those fate
ful names have all been scanned.
Every list is a brief review of our
United States from Montesano, Wash.,
to Adairsville, Ga., and of all names
from Adams to Zimmerle. The dull
est can feel that what was only a
newspaper has now become a herald
of eternal things. A casualty list is
not news, but the final proof of the
heroism of our country's sons. Nor.
m spjts Cf grjeft does it relate onlv
to the past. Those who have fallen
fell fighting for a better future, and
thus departing, leave it it to us to
make or mar that coming world for
which they cared so muc h. An Eng
lish poet, John Masefield, has put it
in better words than ours:
Now the young men are bringing us
the water of peace. This will, I be
lieve, be the peace that passeth un
derstanding, when we shall have our
lives again, our loves again, and can
do our work. It will be like the drink
ing of the blood of these young men.
Love and courage are the main things
in this life. With them you can face
the world. We will need them when
we try to remake the world. May
your country and mine stand together
in the remaking of this world a little
nearer to the heart's desire.
To keep the daily roll of our dead
from becoming a record of failure, our
nation must be true to that inspiration
and that trust. Collier's.

JOHN M. ROSBOROUGII
MARRIED WEDNESDAY
The marriage of Miss Annie E.
.Tones to John Rosoborough, which
took place' at 4 o'clock yesterday after
noon at the family home, was very
beautiful and impressive in its sim
plicity. In a bower of greenery on either
side of which were high pedestals
with baskets of pink roses, the bride
and groom received the marriage
lines, which were read by Dr. L. D.
Young, of the First Fresbyterian
church.
Preceding the ceremony, the No
vello trio, which was on the second
floor, played a group of selections.
To the strains of the Lohengrin wed
ding march played by Miss Ruth
Pikher, the bride and groom entered
unattended.
Mr. and Mrs. Roeborough left late
yesterday afternoon for Estes Park,
Colo. They will be at home to their
friends at Lincoln after December
first.
Mr. Rosborough is head of the har
mony department at the univer-ity
school of music.

KAISER FALL WAS PROPHESIED
IN 1600 BY A GERMAN MONK
A most remarkable prophecy made
by the German Monk, Fratre Johan
nes, in the year 1600, seems to he
nearing fulfillment. As a key to this
prophecy, one has only to realize the
following, it is pointed out by the
Great Falls, Mont., Leader:
The Kaiser is a German Lutheran;
i he has a withered arm.
Germany is the Black Eagle.
Austria, her ally, has also an eagle.
Russia is the White Eagle.
France Is the cock.
England, the British empire, is the
Leopard.
The following prophecy by the
nonk, Fratre Johannes, who lived
a':e it the year lfif;0, is remarkable in
i;! application to the present world
crisis. The authenticity of this pro
phecy -jas at fust doubted because
of a few discrepancies in the text tut
the matter was referred to the news
j per Information bureau at Wash-
tngton and Director F. J. Hasklna re- j
plied as follows:
In reply to your letter asking
whether the prophecy by the monk
Fratre Johannes Is real, we would
say that this rrophecy was discovered
In an old pan hmcnt In the convent of
the Holy Ghost at Wlsmar, In Ger
many, and Is kept under glass In the
town hall of this city. There have
been numerous translations whose
texts vary somewhat. We are re
turning your copy of the prophecy.
"The discrepancies which we noted
and which you may also notice, are
probably due to the variations In the j
translations of the text. On the whole j
It Is a remarkable prophecy." j
It Is as follows: j
The real antichrist w'll he one of j
the nmnarchs of his time, a I.u'horan,
Protestant. He w ill Invoke God an j
give himcelf out as His messenger orj
apostle. - j
This prince of lies will swear by j
the Bible. He will represent himself,
as the arm of the mcft h'gh, sent to ,
chastise corrupt peoples. i
He will have only one arm, but his j
innumerable armies, who will take j
for their device the words, "God is
with us," will resemble the infernal !
regions. j
. ... . ,
For a long time r.e win mi nj
craft and strategy. His sp'es will
overrun the earth, and he will bo
master of the secrets of the mighty.
He will have learned men in his pay
w ho will' maintain rnd undertake to
prove his celestial mission.
Not anly all Christians, but Mus
sulmans and even more distant peo
ples will bo involved. Armies will
be involved from the four quarters ol
the earth.
For by the third week the angels
wi'l perceive th3t the man is a.t
ehrist and that all wiil become his
slaves if they do not overthrow tM
onqneror. Antichrist will be recognized by
various tokens in special he wi'l
massacre the prieptr., the monks, th
women, the children and the aged
He will show no mercy, but will pas
torch in hand, lilce the barbarians,
but invoking Christ.
His words of imposture will resem
ble those of Christians, but his vows
of all the human race.
He will have an eagle in his arms.
he-e will also he an eagle in th?
.vms of his confederate. But the lat
t;-r will be a Christian and will die
from the maled'etions of Pope Bie
lief, who will be elected at the be
ginning of the reign of antichrist.
!n order to conquer antichrist it
iil be necessary to kill more men
han Home ever contained. It will
need the energies of all the kingdoms
because the cock, the leopard and the
white eagle will not be able to mak'
in end of the black eagle without the
tid of the prayers and the vows o
the human race.
Never will humanity have heen
faced with such a peril, because the
triumph of the antichrist would be
hat of the demon, who will have
taken possession of his personality.
Tor it has been said that.tvent
after the Incarnation of the
centuries
world the beast will be incarnated in
his turn and will menace the world
with as many evils as the divine in
carnation has brought it graces.
Toward the 2000 antichrist will be
made manifest. His army will sur

pass in number anything that can
be imagined. There will be Chris'ians
among the cohorts and there will be
Mohammedans among the defcnlers
of the lamb as well as 6ome heathen
soldiers.
For the first time the lamb wi'l ! e
red for blood will flow in the do
mains cf the four elephants at once
The black eagle will hurl itstl;'
upon the cock, whom will lose miry
feathers. It will soon le exhaustc.;.
but for the leopard and its claw.
The black eagle, who wi'l con e
from the land of Luther, will make
a surprise attack upon the cock.
The white eagle will come frcm the
north.
The black eagle will find itself
forced to let go the cock in order to
fight the w hite eagle, whereupon tl e
cock will have to pursue the blaci;
eagle into the land of the antichrisc
to aid the white eagle.
The battles fought up to that time
will be as nothing compared to that
which will take place in the Lutheran
country.
When the beast finds himself lost
he will become furious.
Men will be able to cross the rivers
over the bodies of the dead.
Antichrist will sue for peace many
times, but the seven eagles who,
march before three animals of th
land, will have proclaimed that vic
tory will not be given except upon
condition that antichrist will le
crushed like straw upon the thre.-h-ing
floor.
The three animals will not be per
mitted to stop fighting as long as
antichrist has soldiers.
Antichrist will lost h's crown and
will die in solitude and madness. His
empire will be divided intov22 states,
but none will have any longer fortin-
j cations .armies or ships of war.
The white eagle( by order of Mi
chael, will drive the Crescent out of
Europe, where there will be no longer
i any "but Christians. He will install
himself at Constantinople.
