CARELESSNESS.
. Students are careless. The average student does not take pains
with his work. He "does his bit" and nothing more. The in
accuracies which are found so often in his work are due to this care
less attitude toward his studies. It is quite unusual for students to
take a subject to task in a real conscientious manner and master it
in detail. The careless work comes in the mastery of detail and
flaws and faults are found there more than in the general part of his
work. Deep study and exactness in detail are essential to mastery of
a subject and this is an unusual thing for students to accomplish.
Rarely does a student take his work as seriously as he ought He
does not realize the importance of getting the essential facts and
making them a part of him. It is the ability to assimilate the sub
ject that makes one a successful student and this ability cannot be
acquired when one is careless. But when the mid-semesters are near
at hand the realization of what he has missed diagnose his case and
show that every mistake and every blunder Is due, in some respect,
to carelessness. And carelessness is not conflined to studies alone.
Carelessness is found in every walk of life. The careless attitude
which students, and every one else, takes otward the feeling of others
is sometimes to be abhorred. It is carelessness to forget a newly
made acquaintance or to absent-mindedly pass up an old one. So to
save the feelings of others and to benefit one's self a student should
get the greater education than books can give, the knowledge that
he is exact in detail and avoids carelessness.
THE NEW WHO'S WHO.
How many of us have ever taken the time and trouble to read
the Who's Who book? A careful perusal of this volume will teach
us many new things. We are here for an education and the finding
out of new things is part of an education. The latest Who's Who
can be found In the library. In. this last volume there are many
names familiar to students. A number of instructors at the Univer
sity of Nebrask are famed far beyond the walls wherein we know
them. Numbers of them are men of national prominence if not of
national fame. Their opinions are considered in national and even in
international movements. Their books -are used in many other uni
versities and colleges. Articles from a great many can be found in
the modern magazines giving expert advice on the subjects of which
they, have made a life long study. So do not think tha tthe professor
who meets you at certain hours each day is some old mossback that
knows nothing but the names of the students and the rudiments of
his subject fo ryou are most ikely underestimating your man. Dig
into that volume which gives each man his due and find out Who in
this great institution is Who.
HOMECOMING DAY AND THE GREAT GAME.
Next Saturday is Homecoming Day and the day of the great
game. The Olympics also fall on this day. It will be a gala day for
old Nebraska. The old grads will be there with their everlasting
fire and the confidence in Nebraska. It is that confidence In the team
which will defeat Notre Dame. The team has the goods and all i
needs Is the backing. They will get it, they must have it. And the
grads will be there to inspire and help. Nebraska should be at the
game In full force. Especially Bhould the Freshmen be certain that
they are present at this great event There Is nothing that will
make them better understand Nebraska, Nebraska spirit and the depth
of Nebraska feeling as much as will this great day and game. The
Olympics should inspire in every Freshman that spirit of fight which
is the embryo of enthusiasm at the football game. Their confidence
in their ability to defeat the Sophomores could well be retained after
the Olympics, whether they win or lose, and turned to the support
of the eleven which meets the Irishmen from Indiana. The Iluskers
have shown their mettle in previous games and are keyed to go into
Saturday's fray with the spirit of winning deep rooted in their
minds. And Saturday night should be a night of celebration. Every
"true Nebraskan should do his share to help win the Homecoming
game.
NEBRASKA PROSPERITY.
There is nothing that speaks so eloquently of the present pros
perity of this state, as the long rows of automobiles that surround the
'University campus every day. On some days it is almost impossible
to find space for parking a car. And these cars belong mostly to
University students. This array of motor cars speaks of the fertility
of the Nebraska farm lands and of the industry of the people who
farm these lands. Yet scarcely less than a generation ago, the fathers
and mothers of the students of today, walked to their classes. That
their children are today riding in motor cais is but an indication of
social progress.

FOOTBALL!
Football! and its crowds that roar
Football! and the sounds that pour
Like waves that roll from shore to
shore.
Ever, ever you will be,
Game of strength, a joy to me.
Men of iron, brawny, broad.
Men of whom our state is proud
To you we sing our praises loud.
Always comrades this we pray,
Grant us one more victory day.
Watch them when the goal they near
See the crowd rise up and cheer
Hear them moan as o'er a bier
When the lines so slowly creep,
No! They must not know defeat.
The leaders as they yell and prance,
The band with its determined chants,
The students in the wild snake dance,
Forever this the spirit be
In frigid loss or victory.
As long as hills and valleys stand
As long as ever in this land
The torch burns bright in youths

May campus grounds and Uni. Hall

I'm so hot I perspire torrents.
He makes me sick.
I cearly had a fit when he told roe

was at such a garden party that
KrntFtlne Shayler was presented.
Being presented to the king and
queen of England was only one of
the many interesting parts of her
trip. Receptions, at the embassies,
dinners, luncheons and teas with
noted persons in London affairs;

nomes;two weeks in Paris; and a
trip over the battle ground are
of the fascinating things with which
Ernestine Shayler filled her summer.

Omaha. She is a member of Delta

BUBBLES.
By Ima Cuckoo.
It ought to be a game with a lot
of "kick" in it Saturday, because
Notre Dame is again bringing
"Brandy" with them. This joke origi
nally belongs, to Dr. Maxey.
Those co-eds who are just "dying"
for lighter hair should sit In the
bleachers at the football games.
A recent headline in the Nebraskan
said: "Man Hunt Started for Mur
derer of Nebraskan." Somebody asked
me who killed the "Bag," and why
did they want to find the murderer?
With the menu -given for cross
country men by Coach McMaster they
ought to be nice and fat in a month.
It Is unanimously agreed that cross
country men can have more of a
variety than most humans. Let's run
cross-country; we won't be a Mac
Swiney. It is a coincidence that two Fresh
men presidents within the past year
have had the name Craig. It is
rumored that if your name is not
Craig, you are not eligible to run on
the Freshman ticket. All Craigs who
are now in high school, please take
notice. Political honors are in store
for you.
Some one asked me yesterday why
they gave Freshmen Intelligence tests,
anyway. "A vacuum is always a
vacuum or a stone is always a stone,"
was the reason for the comment.
The annual class scrap between the
victims of Intelligence tests and the
second-year men will be the second
Olympics held in 1920. Wonder how
the intelligence tests will apply to the
Sophomores after the battle?
