CAMPAIGNS ON THE CAMPUS.
Campaigns on . the campus will be
looked upon with disfavor during the
next few months by the students.
The late move to bring down the high
cost of enjoying themselves has shown
the student body that money i not
so plentiful as it has been during the
past few years. Money comes slc-er,
needs more coaxing and is in smaller
portions now than it has been for a
number of years. The students are
feeling for the first time the pinch of
money stringencies. They are meet
ing with new conditions in finances.

unless their merit is unrpjesi icmnb'e.
The students will count their pennies
in ihe near future unless 1hey beein
now to economize and keep in ihr
clear financially. Unpaid bills are
being paid, fewer hills are being in
curred and credit is being extended
less and less. A few studenls will
lose their heads and drop out of

ability to stay in school but the

sult men of experience before taking
such a step. The students must take
care of their finances. They must
look to the future and prepare for
still tighter money conditions, lower
prices of products and a slack in
wages. And the campaigners who
step on the campus from now on must
have an object worthy of contributions
berore the students will make any
effort to back such movements on
ihe campus.
I
SOCIAL FRIVOLITIES.
Students are losing their interest In
dancing. This form of entertainment
has worn itself out on the camrus.
The students are becoming restlesR.
they want something new. something
different, something with more excite
ment. But the dance is becoming
less popular every day. This has
been Ihe only form of amusement at
the mixers, parties and other enter
tainment for some time. Week end
after week end the students have
danced away their spare moments.
They have not enjoyed it but they
have danced because dancing was the
fashion. Movies are used as a mid
week pastime. Theaters are for Mon
day and Tuesday with a possible
Saturday night thrown in on special
occasions. But dancing leads them
nil and no one enjoys it. The dance
has lost its novelty. Music is worn
out in a few weeks. The moment a
new piece comes n the market it is
swallowed up by the hungry public
and in a short period of time U be
comes tiresom). The dancers are
taking up square dances for a novelty.
These are becoming porular in some
sections of the country- The dance is
reverting to the past for novelty.
Society is getting tired of its own
frivolity.
THE REAL STUDENT.
"He is a real student.
Wnw often we have heard people
.1.1- mirt1 And what do
jnaae u" -
they mean? Nine times out of ten
. that the person they are
speaking of is eagerly seeking knowl
dge for Its own sake. This mean
ing does not make -student" synony
mous with -book-wora. ooweier. m
the -real student" uses
boot occasionally.
T fh. rrsiversity "real student"-
nmst hare EtHl larger meaning than
i.,.y- Th Etcl,'r,t m""!
Ucfely prised University is
eeUng knowledge for the sake of its
its use in iuture life. He studies books
and he studies life first-hand. He
has three purposes in coming to tht
University, namely, to acquire good
ha'oits and methods of. thinking, to
obtain v knowledge of facts and to
learn how to "get, along" with peo
ple. To work out these purposes he di
vides his attention among scholarship,
social life and school activities. The
University is a miniature of the world.
The student who neglects no phase
of University life and meets it square
ly, accepting facts as thoy are in
stead of complaining that they are not
what they ought to be, is a "real
student' in the sense that he Is pre
parin hi '"sell f cr life.
CORNHUSKER STATE AGAIN ON
MAP.
Nebraska was again put on the
map by the showing her represent
atives made in the International Live
Stock Exposition recently held in
Chicago, accounts of which have al
ready appeared in the Daily Nebras
kan. The University of Nebraska
Stock Judging team of the State Farm
was responsible for the success the
Cornhusker state had at the Chicago
meeting. By winning second place,
the traditions ol Nebraska Cnivtrsiij
were upheld.
Out of eleven tt-ams sent by the
college to the big international show.
the winnings consist of one first place
soconus and one third tally. This
record is remarkable, considering th;.t
practically every big live stock stau

tion. Practically every eornbeit state w:..

GIRLS CORNHUSKER .PARTY.
The annual girls' Cornhusker parly,
which will take place Friday evening,
is a tradition that tjjoiud not be
neglected. A number of other social
events were scheduled for the same
evening before the posiponiment c.
the Cornhusker party. The date fo.
them has not been changed, hut thc
should not conflict with the phis
Cornhusker party. It will begin at
7:30 and girls who have other tor
gagemeaU can attend this party iirsi.
No girl3 should miss out on this
tradition b'veryone comes in costume
and has a hilarious time. The usual
restraint 1 other parties is tabooed.
Surely girls who have attended in
other years will not miss this time.
All Freshman, girls (should come;
those who do not will at some time
regret their staying away. The cos
tumes need not be elaborate. Old
clothing aud perhaps a roll of crepe
paper plus an idea and a small amount
of wor will make a costume.
