It is to bo hopod that it vill remain with us. The Oorr.hus.kor banquot is the only -got together mooting" for all university men. It is a thoroughly enjoyahlo, highly democratic event in the round of student affairs. Last year the banquet was obtained through the efforts of inter ested alumni, after it had been forbidden by school authorities, on account of the 'unfiontlemanly conduct" of the men in former years. The war has had a sobering influence on the men. Formerly they reveled in rhe spirit that is nothing more than rowdyism, at such col lege functions. This spirit reached its height two years ago at the Comhusker banquet. Last year was the teeing time when the men proved to the school officials, their aMlity to conduct the banquet along more orderly linos. When the athletic authorities asked for the banquet this year prac-. tically no objection was raised against it. The result of another or derly affair this year, will mean that the tradition is firmly reinstated. AN INDUSTRIAL WAR ON THE PUBLIC In every strike which affects public utilities there are three parties. All three suffer injury, but the most immediate suffering comes upon that innocent third party, the public. Yet it may not be quite right to call the public innocent, because it is the fault of the people of the country that such strikes are not made impossible. In dealing, or rather, not dealing, with this matter, the people simply neglect to urge into proper action congress and the legislature of the states. They seem to go on the principle of the lazy man who would not mena the leak in his roof in fine weather because it didn't bother him then, nor in stormy weather because he hoped it would clear up srwv. Two tumgsare needed to make such discomfort, annoyance, and danger as the traveling public around New York endured in the harbor strike impossible. One is a law forbidding under penalties employees of industries from engaging in strikes affecting the health, comfort, and freedom of action of citizens. But if such a law is enacted, as it should 'be, it is a necessary and obvious corollary" that another law should not only provide a just method of arbitration and conciliation tor such disputes, but should make it compulsory. Nearly all impar tial students of industrial problems agree as to this, hut it seems im possible to get the plan on the statute-books. There is a conciliation board under federal law. hut it does not afford a complete and sure remedy. The war labor bo'ird has special jurisdiction as a war measure over many industrial dispute; but as shown in this instance, it cannot always prevent an almost unen durable attack on. the rights of the public to travel, to have its food supply brought "to. its great cities, and to have its business free from interruption while employers and employees quarrel The Outlook. tint ii. i u h a reputation - nut ... t- - - - hownhastly.

"Be good, sweet maid, and let who will be" clever" so said Kingsley, and wisely did he say so. Once upon a time you wrote a theme which the professor said was clever. Many times had you written themes which neither the professor nor any one else said were clever, 'but this one time, the professor said it was clever in fact, so clever that he announced j as much to the class, and as proof j thereof, read the theme, i For one so lowly as you 1o write a j clever theme was so astounding that j you awoke from your usual class rev I erie to find yourself famous. Your contemporaries regarded you as a : hitherto unappreciated genius in their j midst. To them, you embodied all of the qualities of a Miss Mark Twain, or a Georgia Ade. Even I. Cobb had nothing on you. j All of vhich w as very pleasant. Theme Readers Course A course for students reading Humes, and for those training as Eng lish teachers will 1-e offered next sem ester by Professor Gass of the rhet oric department. The lderlv mulionane was asking, the advice of one of iris friends at the club. "Would you consider it any harm to deceive her about my age?" he asked. "Perhaps not.'" "Tin sixty-two. How would it do to confess to fifty two?" "'1 think your chances with Gladys would be better if you said you were seventy-two,'" said the friend. S ! if 4 Days Starting Wed. Wat.
