Yesterday you were stunned to hear
that today you would be forced to en

been too busy for the last few weeks.

you decided that It was absolutely

VSchool of many cares Is made"
quoted from an epic by Gayle Vincent
Grubb see Dally Nebraskan for No
vember 11, 1918.
In accordance with the foregoing
decision, you retired to your room Im
mediately after dinner and commenced
the perusal of "many a quaint" and
curious volume of forgotten lore."
You had scarcely finished reading the
first page, when two of the girls came
In. and after conversing with you for
nearly ten minutes, Imparted the real
object of their visit, namely, to bor
row your hat and new fur neck-piece.
Again you studied. Why, WHY. did
the girl In the next room play the
ukulele so steadily? You darted in
her abode to see the cause of the ce
lestial strains. There you found the
whole gang making inroads on a great
chocolate cake! Did you linger!
Well, you are but human nearly an
hour wasted.
Again you studied. Nearly five mhv

ruption. One of the girls cama in tD

was still shuffling around in your
note book, you were called to the tel

Claribel's room on your return from
the telephone booth, but you stayed
only long enough to tell her that you

that you were going to the Junior

Again you studied. Why were you
so sleepy! 'ou simply could not get
anything out of those boring books..
You remembered having once heard
that lessons could be learned by sleep

NOTHIN P'TICKLER
By Jeff Machamer
Notice to exchange editors:
Please don't borrow from this col
umn,' we can't stand that sort of flattery.
It has been scientifically establish
ed, that a-cork, when held against the
bottom of a tub filled with water, will
come to the surface immediately after
being released. A simple way to keep
the cork under water, wou'd be to
fasten a brick thereft. (The latter
discovery was made last evening, by
Mortimer Spoofus, of the college of
science.)
Just because the sun seems to touch
the earth when it sets, dont' think it
hits anybody.
From a "dummy" news story, writ
ten by a member of the class in Journ
nalism: " the wheel was blown from the
freight car and it went through the
wall. of the Lincoln hotel. The wall
didn't terminate its flight and the
wheel continued through more walls
until it dropped through a ceiling and
lit on one of the eggs and demolished
it. A piece of the shell landed in a
cup of coffee and the drinker strangled
to death."
Speaking of calls; when you're down
by the river, drop in!

DR. NEWHALL COMING
FOR S. A. T. C. WORK
Captain Leslie Q. Drake, new com.
raandant of the local S. A. T. C, an
nounced last evening that he bad re
ceived word from the surgeon gener
al's office stating that Dr. New hall
would arrive at the Nebraska Univer
sity November 27, for the purposo of
delivering a series of lectures on the
subject of personal hygiene. These
lectures will be given to all the nun
In the S. A. T. C. and S. N. T. ('. ami
attendance at same will be compulsory.
At last comes the underlying rea
son for the scarcity of cloth around
and immediately below the waist line
of a sailor's jeans. It follows:
When the first pair of sailor's trous
ers were made, the machinery employ
ed thereon contained a flaw. There
had been a rain the night before, and,
due to a leak in the roof overhead,
(roofs are generally "overhead") the
machinery became wet. The Janitor
insisted on keeping a hot fire (that
variety of Janitor s now extinct) and
the machine which fashioned the seat
of the trousers, shrank! It was fas
tened to the machine on which the
cuffs are made. When the first named
machine shrank it pulled away from
the other one and the result was a
severe stretching of the cuff ma
chine. When the trousers were fin
ally ready-to-wear, well you have
observed the result. So many uses
have been found for the "bell"
J shaped effect that the flaw went un
remedied.
Two heliotroped slips of forty-five
were conversing in sn undertone.
First one: "Is my hair on straight?"
Second one: "Yes! but your teeth
droop a little on the left side."
The above story is mostly "false,'
don't believe it.
