This is decidedly encouraging to the
medical authorities who were com
pelled to handle 4"0 cases when the
epidemic was at its height. The mor

sity students outside the S. A. T. C.
only two of the twenty-two who have
teen reported ill since October 10
have not recovered. No new cases of
influenza were reported Wednesday.
Strict Measure Taken
The medical department of the S.
A. T. C, however, were taking strict
precautionary measures against the
. spread of the disease among the newly
drafted men in section B, who arrived
Tuesday. No cases of influenza have
been reported among the new men.
If the decrease in the number of case

LT. GLEN V. GRAF
SENDS WORD TO DAILY
HEBRASKAH FROM CAMP
!!:-. learh.
1hi morning I was down in Colum
bia viewing and reading the inscrip
tion.? on the monuments erected to
the confederate generals and south
em women. Gn the state capitol
building I saw seven dents made by
shells shot by General Sherman.
I like my work very much; and am
proud that I am a soldier in the great
emergency at hand.
With the best wishes to the stu
dents of old Nebraska, I remain,

HAND GRENADES j
A letter hau been received by the
editor of The Daily Nebraskan from
Lit. Glen V. Graf, who is stationed at
Camp Jackson, South Carolina. Lt.
Jackson writes that he is very desir
ous of getting subscriptions of The
Daily' Nebraskan, and wonders if the
paper Is still in existence. His let
ter follows:
1st Brigade Officers' Hotel, 10-6-18.
The Daily Nebrakan,
: State University of Nebraska".
Dear Editor:
Lt. Graf reports desiring a sub
scription of the "Rag." Not Showing
whether the "Rag" is still in existence
due to the emergenetic change in the
university, probably I am taking quite
a chance in writing you, but I hope it
is not true. It would do me a world
of good to receive a few copies now
and then, for if there is anything that
I hold dear to me it is the old Uni
versity of Nebraska and her Husker
activities.
As a few know at the university
I went into the service as a "buck"
immediately upon the close of school
last spring. I went to Camp Dodge,
Iowa, where I was attached to a bat
tery. I remained in the battery eight
days, then through recommendations
of the captain of that battery (or I
might say indirectly my U. of N. train
ing) I got into the 4th O. T. C. at
Dodge. The artillery department de
cided to .standardize its training of
officers, so I was sent to Camp
Zackary Taylor, - Ky., where seven
thousand others assembled to what
is known as the "Field 'Artillery Offi
cers' Training School." Upon the
completion of a three months' grind
there, as we called it, I was graduated
as a 2nd lieutenant. I am most proud
of my promotion, for it sure took hard
work on my part. Well, that was on
the 23th of September. I was assign
ed to Camp Jackson, so here I am.
When I reported In here I wan un
signed to the F. A. R. D. which means
TRY A DOSE
It i3 easy to laugh and be happy
When your pockets with money an
lined,
When you're, feeling "as fit as a fiddle"
And there's nothing that troubles
your mind.
If is harder to smile and look cheerful
When you've little or nothing to
spend,
When you're racked with acute indi
gestion
And imagine you're near to your end.
But the doctors can't add to your In
come,
And no physic will gladden your
heart ;
There's a medicine which if youll
take it
All your troubles will cause to de
part. Keep on taking It twenty times
a dose here and now, and drink
deep:
"Loving Thoughts," Is the name of
this tonic.
It's the grandest on earth and so
cheap!
Think of others who suffer as you
do
Who are lonely, "hard up", and de
pressed ;
Help your fellows to conquer their
troubles.
And you 11 soon feel as "fit as the
best!"

She loves me.
She told me slie loved me last night,
You doubt it?
I don't, for I'm sure that I'm right
She kissed me.
That's not a sign, did you say?
You're wrong, sir. It all depends
on the way.
She fool me?
Oh, never! I know that she loyes
You an, lie, sir?
I tell you, we kissed like twoo doves.
She married?
Oh. nonsense! Can't ever be true.

OU have said it as you have
looked at some vivid picture or
read some stirring account of our boys
fighting with American courage and
self-sacrifice. If you cannot go out to
them, you can fight for them, over here.
Smash open the way for them with
howitzers and big guns. Send them am
munition, tanks, airplanes, rifles, cloth
ing, food. Help to keep them victorious.
You can lend as fearlessly, as unself
ishly, as they fight. That is your
job as a part of our war machine.
OF COURSE you would "like to be there."
They don't need you yet or you WOULD be
there. But they need guns and shells, every
hour they remain on the road to Berlin.
Absolutely the next best thing to going over is to
