Continued reports have come to the "Nebraskan-, of dishonesty among students. To be frank, there are men and women on the campus with not enough pride in living their lives straight to keep from taking other students property. It has ceased to be "merely an accident" and has passed beyond the joking stage. This state of affairs is vital to the morale of the University. It is a shame that the suspicion has to be cast on every student of the University simply because a few are willing to indulge in dishonest and corrupt practices. When a Nebraska student has lost his personal honor to such an extent there is little to be said to him unless it is to his face after he has been convicted. The unusual feature about the stealing is that the thieves are not In need. In fact, usually, they are students who have not the slightest need of stealing a single article. Our verdict to such students is to beware of detection, or your stay at Nebraska University will be of short duration. The time to "set down" on such actions is RIGHT NOW, and examples should be made of anyone found guilty. DON'T TRY TO FOOL THE PUBLIC. Some members of this University, mostly Freshmen, have not yet come to realize that they are no longer high school athletic heroes, but merely common units of a larger and better educational institu tion. These debonaire individuals daily attend their classes, clad in the sky blue pink trophies won with mighty endeavor from the foot ball field of Pumpkinville-Center where they were chosen, from the entire student body of fifty members, to represent their school. Wearing these sweaters adorned with a huge letter shows poor spirit toward the University. It's time to rip them off and quit advertising your prowess of high school days for, if you are a good man, Coach Schulte will find it out soon enough and, if you're not, don't try to fool the public. HE NEVER He vat a college student. He had his good points, but "he never had time." ' A place on a Y. M. C. A. committee was offered him. About a half hour's work for each of a half dozen socials during the year was all that was required. "I am carrying an unusual heavy study sched ule this year," he said. "I haven't got time." His fellow literary society members expressed their opinion that he could make good at debating and hoped that he would increase his society's chances of winning by entering the tryouis. "Can t see my way clear," he replied. "It would take an hour a day for several weeks, and I haven't got time." He had played football in his high school days and had been accounted worthy by the country newspaper writer to be listed among those who "played good ball." The coach eyed his athletic build and upon urging that he appear for practice was answered, "I don't be lieve I have any chance of making the team, there are too many ot the old men back and besides, I haven't got time." It happened to be a college where chapel was not noted for large student attendance. The suggestion was made to him that one ot the ways in which he could get most out of his college career was to make some effort to be regular at chapel. Without much hesitation and with no thought he declared, that, "somehow I always have a lesson which other school duties prevent me from getting before the chapel hour and the recitation comes right after, so I haven't got time." -Come out to the game and yell for the team," the local fans asked him. The rooters were not doing their best for they h id not recovered from the sting of the last defeat. The next game was a crucial one. With. the proper support of the student body, victory was not only possible, but very probable. All this was made clear to him "The team is playing too ragged to deserve support," he ex cused himself with. "The little yelling I could do won't count, and anyhow, I am too busy, I haven't got time." It is not recorded how he got through after life, though the lack of such record does not seem strange. Perhaps he did not have time to live. Most certainly it did not take much time for him to die. Saint Teter accosted him at the celectial gate. "You were so busy on earth " said the guardian saint, "you won't be at home here with out something to do; come right in, we will find you a Job at once." Promptly and without thinking force of habit got the best of him bnt Peter saw what reply was coming, and as the heavenly gate closed between them Uf-re t ame floating in through the lattice work of gold, the old familiar strain so often beard at college, 1 haven't got time."

NEBRASKA N Dr. Condra Takes Notre Dame While Nebraska Cornhuskers battled for supremacy with Notre Dame on the Athletic Field Saturday, Dr. George E. Condra, with his pilot, K. V. Gardner, just returning from a. 1200-mile flight over the length and breadth of Nebraska, zoomed out of the clouds, darted low over the cheer ing thousands, circled the field a few times, and snapped some pictures of the closing moments of the game. Dr. Condra, head of the Geoghaphy and Conservation Department at the University, left on this (lying venture October 12. The trip has attracted wide attention because of i s extreme novelty. Purpose of Expedition. The purpose of the expedition was to secure motion and still pictures of the topography of the country, the soil regions, and the cities and vil lages over which the route passed. This tour through the air is part of a plan to study Nebraska's resources and institutions by means of photo graphs and motion pictures. "The first stop was made at Nor folk. The. plane then flew to O'Neill These towns were visited the first day. The second day of the- trip took the party to Valentine and Chadron. No Tying was clone on the third day, as Dr. Condra took a jaunt by rail to the Black Hills country. The Pine Ridge section was visited the fourth day. Nebraska's table-lanes in the vicinity of Alliance were studied from the air. From Alliance they flew to North Tlatte where they spent the night. Saturday at 10:45 they started on the return trip, which took them to Lexington and Kearney. Actual flying time of the journey was thir teen hours. The pictures that were taken com prised a large number of motion pic- Bubbles By Ima Cuckoo. BUBBLES. By Ima Cuckoo. "Why do so many fellows sit with their heads out of the Nebraskan office," asked a reporter yesterday as she saw two feet dangling from be neath the window pane. "Well, they can't smoke inside," said the associate editor. "Do you think jazz music is im moral." asked a ". W. C. A. cabinet member recently? "Not if it is played on an upright piano." replied the president of the Y. M. C. A. Once a Lama and Swami Saw a Chamois do the shimmie; 'Twas yama-yama Chamois And she shook a wicked shimmie. "Oh. Lor' lumme," said Swami And the Lama said. "Oh, mama," Then the Swami and the Lama Shouted: "Shimmie, Chamois, shimmie." Soon the gray and gamy Chamois With her dreamy show-me shimmie.

During the war he was an aviation camp instructor. He now lives in Lincoln where he is connected with the Nebraska Aircraft Corporation. Dr. Condra said that from the air a train moving at a great rate of speed looks as though it were crawling along the landscape. There is no sense of speed, he says, and mile roads pass almost in rapid succession beneath the rlane. "Horses run from the buzzing of the plane, cows have little fear of the machine, and chickens run to cover as from a great hawk," explained the traveler. Scarcity of cattle grazing on the sandhills was a surprise to Dr. Condra. Very little corn was being picked throughout Nebraska. Fall wheat fields in the southern part of the state looked exceptionally green. Weather conditions were quite stable, although the plane had to tiy against the wind at times. A strong up current was encountered between the two forks of the Tlatte River. "I counted ninety lakes from one side of the plane in the sandhill region." remarked Dr. Condra in closing. We told a fellow co-ed In accents joyous at the Game the other day that One of our very' best men Was warming up and surely Things would brighten up When he got in and she Said she didn't see how He could possibly be very Cold wearing all that heavy Clothing on such a warm day.
