AMERICAN COLLEGE MEN.
In many sections of the country the college men have been
deemed fit subjects for jest and the cartoonists have found a never
ending source of inspiration for their pencils in the clothes, the
habits, the attitudes and the goings generally of these favored sons
of fortune. Now fortunately all this has changed and the college men
stand forth now as leaders men trained with the purpose of accom
plishing large tasks.
The college men of today are taking an older and matured view
of ethics and life. They are interested in the problems of govern
ment and the American people, because they feel that with them
rests the ultimate solution of the great issues before the American
nation. It is a noticeable fact that the University students in their
fraternity and boarding houses are spending their leisure time debat
ing with each other on these vital issues, rather than monopolizing
the conversation with athletics, dances and the passing things of
today.
The seriousness of life has begun to present itself to the average
student and he knows that in order to be a successful farmer, busi
ness man, engineer, or architect he must have cognizance of the
great fundamentals of social, political and economic sciences and be
able to apply them to every-day life.
SLUFFING.
Sluffing is a state of dormant torpidity something akin to the
sleeping sickness, but it is not confined entirely to tropical climate.
The advance of the thermometer to eighty degrees causes the infec
tion of the entire student body.
A happy successful Freshmen year means to ninety per cent or
the graduates of Nebraska a happy and successful Senior year.
SELF STARTERS.
Freshmen upon entering the University are mainly dependent
upon some upperclassman friend to get them into some, activities.
Whether it be athletics, publications or politics, the Freshman usually
waits until some friend higher up takes him in hand and leads him
to the coach or some one in authority on the publications to get his
start in University public life. The Freshman feels that he is a novice
and that some one else knows the ropes better than he.
This is a mistake. The man who makes good in school is the
one who does not take a chance on some upperclassman spoiling his
start with some mistake but who dives into the line of activities
which he desires to enter and starts off on his own legs.
The coach or the head of a publication is perfectly willing to
forgive a Freshman for a mistake but they think it over before for
giving him for failing to come up to the standards set by the helping
upperclassman who brings him to them with a line of talk meant to
bulldoze. The Freshman who takes the main road without fear and
who fights his own battles will be the one to succeed. Self starters
are modern appliances and each Freshman should be up-to-date.
TO DISPEL PIPE DREAMS.
The new Senior and Junior divisions of the Arts and Science Col
lege are primarily instituted for the purpose of helping a student to
derive more benefit from his college work. The arts course is elective
to a greater extent than that of any other college in the University.
In past years many Etudents have taken this course in order to
get their degree with as little effort as possible and have taken
"pipes" as electives. Certain requirements were demanded but this
did not prevent an upperclassman from taking work far below his
mental powers thus enabling him to make his requirements when he
could do so with the least effort. Also upperclassmen often found at
the end of their course that they had slid over some requirements
and confusion followed before they could receive their degrees.
The new divisions will give each entrant a more distinct idea of
the work he is to carry and will fit him for some special work far
better than before. Thic new arrangement which has seemed to take
the Joy out of life for some upperclassmen is after all for their own
benefit and for the betterment of both the college and the University.
GETTING BACK.
Some students are of the opinion that their vacation does not
end until a week or two after classes commence. But the wise stu
dent loses no time in getting into the swing of classes at once. On
his program vacation ended with the start of classes Monday morning.
Your summer vacation should be a stimulous for getting back into
the harness immediately.
LET'S GO SLOW.
Student expense accounts are higher this year than ever before.
The basic expenses connected with attending college have gone be
yond all previous bounds. A large number of student will be unable
to complete the semester and year unless they spend their money
conscientously and logically for absolutely necessary expenses.

Have you noticed the galaxy or
pretty girls which adorn the Univer
sity campus between class periods
these hot days? Have you noticed
the dazzling beauty ot Nebraska's
co-eds as they walk slowly down the
arteries leading to the Cornhuskei
ninnul'atturlng plant of education? If
you have not, there is surely some
thing the matter with your sense or
beauty and as the old saying goes
"ove within your bosom is dead."
If it is true that Chicago turns out
the most beautiful girls in the world,
we would venture to suggest that
Charles Dana Gibson, who picked
these these beauties, has navei visited
the University of NebrasRa campus
at least during the fall of 1920.
Someone remarked th:U the campus
blue g 38 would soon be withered
and gone because of the multitude of
co-eds who find that the turf is a
good place to prepare their next
hour's psychology lesson. This same
person also suggested that the cactus
bed would be a fine lounging place.
But in defense of the co-eds who find
the campus a delightful place to
study, we think that it would mar the
beauty of Nebraska's campus to have
the gorgeous beauties of the Corn-
husker school forsake their favorite
haunts.
Are high schools sending up prettier
girls than ever before, or do we have
a new sense of beauty? Surely Ne
braska has never seen such an array
of beautiful co-eds at one time, and
their presence on the campus sug
gests a Corot painting of "Spring."
We can not be convinced that New
York oi even Chicago has any chance
in a contest for beautiful women
when Cornhusker co-eds are among
the competitors.
Say:
i 'i
Ain't it awful when
You follow the crooked
Finger of a fellow inmate
Who is kindly pointing out
The prof, you are choosing
For the Mathematical torture
Chamber and you see a nice
Kind looking guy with an
Almost human look and you
Feel relieved and have visions
Of pulling down a grade that
Will please Mamma and then
When you go to class the first
Day you are greeted with an
Icy stare and find yourself
Looking up into a face that
Makes your heart act like the
Elevator at Miller and Taine's
And the awful truth rushes over
You like Salt Creek in December
And you realize that you lamped
The wrong guy? Oh Daddy!
