"A TALE O OLD JAPAN."
Coleridge Tayhv's "Tnle of Q
Japan" will be presented Tuesday
morning by the University Choi in,
muter tlie direction of Mrs. Carrie It.
Raymond, at a ppeclal musical convo
cation. Unlike most canlatas, '
chorus interprets most of the story
instead of the soloists. The University
singers will be accompanied by sev
eral sdoists.
Musical convocations used to b
weekly occurrences at the Universes
of Nebraska. Splendid offerings were
given by capr.ble artists. Small au
diences at these convocations caused
them to be abandoned. By this, Ne
braska lost a cherished tradition.
There have been, as a (Consequence,
very few musical treats this year.
Mrs. Tiivniond, wh. l.as given net
services t . rtvir.vt; Mont Or s
many years, has woTk-.u hard and dili
gently for many ;reks in preparation
for Tuesday's convocation. You
should feel that it is a privilege to
hear "A Tale of Old Japan" inier
preted by finished artists.
You should plan to attend this car
tata. Every seat should be filled ana
standing room should be at a premium.

PUT AWAY THE HAMMER.
"There is so rirueh good in the worry
of us.
And so much bad in the best of us,
That it hardly behooves any of us
To talk about the rest of us."
Burns.
What a lot of time, breath and inV
are wasted knocking! How we love
to sit around and orate about the
things that are not done to suit us.
We pick out members of the faculty,
fellow students, persons to whoif
some task is entrusted, and vent all
of our pent up theories on how to run
the universe on their unsuspecting
and often undeserving heads. We pick
flaws in their methods, but do we
ever put forth any honest effcrt to
help them a little?
We gossip about our friends nnu
about mr ir.emies. We are only too
glad to listen to and repeat lilile
Btories about others, often not realiz
ing just how much we are instru
mental in helping to give those oth
ers a black eye In public opinion. And
utter all, who are we to judpe oui
fellows? Are we so much better than
they are that we can. with jusiice,
condemn them for their faults or
their mistakes?
Let us pause a moment or two for
a little inspection. Terhaps we will
fit away thi hammer and offer a
little constructive criticism instead ot
knocks and idle condemnation.

Preparations for Knineers" Week. I
April IS 23, are proresln rapidly. (

ition, there will be inter-class rivalry

EDITORIAL OF THE DAY
OUR AMERICAN CO-EDS.
3. The Frivolous Type.
Still again there are co-eds who
come to college for frivolity in or
der to elevate their social position
Knowledge for them is only a collat
eral Issue; only an excuse for spend
ing 11,000 a year. The Library is alsc
their place of habitation but it 13
used for recreation purposes. To thU
type of co-ed, which excludes every
thing from its curriculum except the
social calendar, learning is a non er
sentiaL
The thirst for knowledge In such
cases is about as extinct as was home
made brew In 1910. The butterfly
social climber on the campus should
swallow these words of a contempo
rary writer as food for though: ' Sbe
woh thinks in terms of social func
tions to the exclusion of everything
else, will find it a hard time to mak-
apple dumplings for her future hus
band." This sounds rather far-fetched anft
a peculiar philosophy, but think it
over!

SLEEP.
In casting about for a subject for
editorial comment me can find none
more pertinent than sleep. It Is an
excellent topic, for sleep is an activ
ity which needs additional suppor'..
Though essential it Is apparently un
recognized by the authorities. No
provision is made for it in the curri
culum; no time is allowed for it in
the allocation of hours. It is indeed
sadly amiss that the necessity lor U
is not clearly seen by the powers that
he and The Tech's duty to champion
its cause is plain.
The glee with which all individua'3
lie down to 6leep is hardly compli
mentary to the world. They rejoice
to escape from its irksome tasks and
myriad annoyances by seeking refuge
in the Lethe of repose. Every night
the earth's populace gladly forsakes
its native planet. There must be
something wrong with this world that
everybody gets tired of it in some six
teen hours. Or there must be some
thing powerfully attractive about
sleep to draw all mankind away from
earthly interests. And again it Is sin
gular that man who clings so ten
aciously to life should lay himself
down so happily to death's counter
feit. The conclusion is Inexorable that
sleep must be marvelously appealing
Five persons picked at random are
asked a question each day.
Today's question: Why do so mvy
people stand in fron of U Hall?
1. "Chxk" Hartley, 544 So. 17th St.
I suppose to see the girls. If ycuH
noticefi however, you'll see the crowd
is almost always composed of fresh
men, very few upperclassmen stand
around there.
2. Emily Ross, 1414 G St.
To see all the people pass.
3. Harold McGlasson, 1631 F St.
Nearly every one has classes there
besides they probably like to w-atch
the parade go past. j
4. Dorothy Faul, 1414 G St. j
Nearly every one stand there so
they can meet people. I
5. Jimmy Fiddock, 229 No. 17th St. j
To see every one I guess, but 1
know I never meet any one there, j
