MISS COPPOCK SPEAKS
AT VESPERS TUESDAY
.
"Thirteen Years in China," was the,
subject of Miss Grace Coppock's ad- bp adopted by the society as a whole
,lress before a crowded Woman's Hall (n aU academic work. In personal re
al the Y. W, C. A. Vespers Tuesday j utonB wlth teUow students and In all

; ij i,o m-ov her snbiect was
announced; for, she said, she had been
thirteen and a half years in China, and
Fhe did not want to lose that six
months. She sketched the rapid
growth of the Y. W. A. In China
during those years.
The steps in organizing a new Y. W.
C. A. In China are long and complex,
because the Chinese women are not
v-iuot7 Mi. ......... - -
used to organizing. First a good deal
. m. 1 MiAfl-Inff tin
of work must be done In working up
enthusiasm in seperate groups. Then
a preorganizatlon committee Is formed
which manages finances, publicity and
the general business of getting things
started. Before either of these things
can b done the secretary has to be
found, has to spend at least a year
:n learning the language, and has to
study the special problems of her
field. It Is this preliminary work w ith
which the two graduates of Nebraska
now In R. W. C. A. at HangChow,
Miss Lowry and Miss Hartley, are
now engaged.
Miss Coppock told many interesting
experiences which she had been
through, such as her trip over in a
treteht 6hip, her journeys by house
boat, her two years of language study
in the interior. She brought warm
greetings from the other Nebraskans
in China.
THE DAILY DITTY

Ah The curse of booze, the cur?e
Of wicked, wicked booze;
Tbo' banned from use, its little stream
Continues still to ooze.
And 6trange, ah very strange it is
How many seek to soak
Their souls in imitation of
Good booze ah, its a joke.
To that extent that certain of
The fact that they are stewed.
They long to have the whole world
know
And add to gossip's food.
Yet, ah, why steal a pink shade limp
And cart it off in glee.
To park it on the front porch of
A gent's fraternity?
i
Why boldly lift an unlocked latch?
I can't conceive it right
To drum airs on an upright when
It's four bells in the night.
Shameful? Ah, it's more than that
I pause to choose a word
That will adequately describe the lay
- Of scandal that I've heard.
V
'Tis no use, I will call a halt
But I know how I feel;
And you who love good scandal well
What make you of the deal?
"Mary bought a pair of skates
And both of them were rollers;
But the first time she tried them out
She knocked out all her molars.'

ler anticipated two victories for his
proteges but by no means underesti
mated the strength of the Tigers. On
the western trip the Huskers split
with the Tiger nippers but the Nebras
kans believe that this was due to the
atmospheric conditions of the Colora

a disastrous effect on the brand of
basketball exhibited by the Cornhusk
ers but in Lincoln on the home floor
these handicaps will not be present.
Consequently two more marks are
