STUDENT EXTRAVAGANCIES.
A number of students arc just now
finding out what it means to be
pinched for Dionev A great many
students have received warnings from
the folks at home that their allow
ances will be curtailed soon and that

school or have found pa. time work
in the city.
The latter, however, is getting to
be a scarce thing in Lincoln. But
students will be able to alleviate thou
troubles to a great degree if they w,t:
enly begin to economize. Too many
parties, too many "dates," too many
lances and too much ice cream, candy
and high priced clothes are the chiei
reasons for the shortage yi sui.h u'
finances.
These things can be dene a way
with to a great extent if only i!k
student will make an attempt :.i
break away from the lures of ex
' travagance. If they do not break
away from the spending habit it v.:;:
not be long until they will be lo.cc!,:
to stop spending altogether.
Dances can be spaced farther a pur;
and can be held at the chapter house;;
when it Is deemed necessary that
they be held. "Dates" also can be
held at intervals farther apart and
less regular than each and every
Sunday, Wednesday, Friday and Satur
day. Other things can be moderated
a great deal and temperence in all
things should be the motto of each
student during the present hmineial
crisis.
HELLO, CLASSMATE!
nM vni ver think what an un
natural custom well ave? We see
the same people in class several
times a week- We hear them recite,
and we become acquainted with their
personalties. We exchange remark.
with them and sometimes carry on
jonversatlons" with those sittinn
near us. '
And then, outside of class, when
we met these peoplo we know so
well, what do we do? Why, we wall,
right past them with an icy glance
in thrir direction and never a
thought of giving any sign of recog
nition. Once in a while we forg. t
ourselves and speak to a classmate
We explain to our friends that wr
cant remember whom we have met
and whom we havent met and th;;t
we have to watch ourselves or we
will be speaking to students we set
in class every day thinking we have
met them. What a terrible ca!ainit
that would be! Can you imagine any
thing worse?
Of course, there are exceptions to
all rules. We all make some acquaint
ances in c;ass, but we dont make
one-tenth the number we tdiouh!
make.
We live in the West where uncon
ventional democracy is the boast.
Why hamper ourselves with an un
natural Eastern convention?

demands to the Cornell faculty that
women students in the institution be
segregated in their own colleges with
instruction in separate buildings and
that enrollment of co-eds be strictly
limited.

GIRLS!
The Nebraska hen is losing her grip
on the 8-hour day. Information has
reached Prof. F. E. Mussehl of the
College of Agriculture that several
Nebraska poultrymen are now using
artificial light to stimulate egg pro
duction. No longer can the pullets sit
on the roost until laey old Sol ap
pears over the eastern horizon. In
stead of an alarm clock, electric
lights blaze forth at 6 a. m. and the
day is on. Likewise, instead of knock
ing off. at 5 p. m., Miss Pullet finds
plenty of light in the house for a
couple of hours after darkness falls
over the land. Nebraska poultrymen
have now entered the highly special
ized class, heretofore known only to
the big eastern poultry states or in a
few spots on the west coast.
