"I wonder what lied in the road
ahead?"
I have asked successful men,
Who have micked and mired cud
cursed, dead-tired
'Till their courage smiled again.
"There's none can tell what lies In
the road
I have heard 'em smile the phrase
The road runs well or is oare as a
cell,
You get what you put in your days."
j
I've asked of a Rector, "What lies in
the road
That stretches out ahead?"
"Success, if you plod with the aid of
God,
Is the straight high road," he'a said.
To the learned I've asked the question
again,
"Good Sirs, what lies in the road
That seems but to laugh and shows
you the path
Where you stand with a heavy load?"
They have mused and said, "My friend,
could we
But look In the road ahead,
Life's mystery guide would open wide
And wise men wake from the dead."
From the wayfarer dressed in a tat
tered suit
Who begs for the right to live,
I have sought what lies in the road
ahead
I have asked what answer he'll give.
"Son, he has said and his rudy
face
Has managed a sorry smile
With a care-free load I have trav
elled the road
Of many a weary mile.
But ever the road leads on and on
And there seems to be no end,
Though I've followed its trail, it Is no
avail
No answer will it lend."
And so I gaze at the road ahead,
"What pinnacle lead you to?"
While the dusty track but questions
. back;
"My friend, what lies in you?"
MISS PERRIN SPEAKS
AT VESPERS TUESDAY
"Live better lives ad realize what
our boys died for. If we fail to realize
this, all good that .could possibly come
from the experience of war, is gone,"
said Miss Edna Perrin at Vespers
Tuesday evening.
Miss Perrin, who is a Nebraska girl,
spent over a year in Y. M. C. A- work
in England. She was unable to so
across before the armistice was
signed but there were so many Ameri
can boys over there that there was a
great deal of work to be done even
then.
There were a number of the gills
out to hear Miss Perrin and they all
enjoyed her talk immensely. She did
not give a speech but just a friendly
heart to heart talk with the girls. She
told of her. experiences nnd expla'ned
many things regarding cond'iions
"over there" that we have often won
dered about. The only thing to regret
about the meeting is that more girls
did not hear her.
STUDENT OPINION
Lincoln, Nebr., Febr. 11.
The Military Department has been
very severly criticised by ex-soldiers,
students and interested observers. The
criticism has been quite. Just and fit
ting, as broadminded and fair consid
eration has been cast aside In order
to make room for letter-perfect tech
nicalities. One man served in the United States
army, during the war, for a period of
eleven months and twenty-three days.
The requirement for exemption from
cadet drill demands exactly twelve
months active service in the army.
Because this man lacked only seven
days of serving the minimum amount
of time, the policy of the Military de
partment is so inflexible as to require
him to drill a semester in the cadet

regiment.
Another man served in the Canadian
army, in order to get into action
sooner. He was wounded, gassed and
decorated; yet upon his entrance into
the university he is to receive no drill
credit and is required to drill four se
mesters under a group of cadet officers
some of whom probably don't know
a machine gun from an old fashioned
churn".
Still another man served in France
for eleven months, but must now drill
with the "Rookies" of the cadet regi
ment on North 12th street. These men
will not be granted a degree from the
university until they have drilled ac
cording to ths requirements. The
answer is; they will probably never
graduate.
We can cite many more such cases,
but feel that these are sufficient to
warrant our criticism. All due respect
Is granted to a few of the cadet offi
cers; and it is not the intention of this
letter to criticise the methods or ys
tern of training. But almost every man
in school resents the rules that seem
to be adhered to in such a letter-perfect
manner, regardless of individual
circumstances.
