of the practical while seeking the
thoorotlcal.
Doth does of workers gal na great
deal because of their efforts. In a fin
ancial way they may not realize as
much as they hope for now, yet In
the long race of life, th training they
receive, the accompanying mental dis
cipline resulting, and the necassary
call upon the resourcefullness of an
individual will show in most cases
what an advantage this work has

itios through which it may serve the
University.
The book is a good one. With many
more names than were in last year's
book, it was issued nearly as quickly
as the one in use last year but with
additional features that make it far
more serviceable than ever before.
In the first place, the addition of a
town directory will make the book of
benefit to every student traveling in
Nebraska this coming year, and a
pleasure to every man and woman
going from city to city in the state

FALL FEVER.
Each spring, as regularly as it
comes around, the Editor of the Daily
Nebraskan, through inspirated? words,
tries his best to get the student body
to stick to work and finish the job
creditably when the work of the sem
ester is so nearly completed.
The disease that overcomes is called
"Spring Fever."
Is Nebraska suffering from the same
ailment this fall? The weather has
been ideal in fact if we had wished
for weather of this kind our fondest
hopes would never have imagined
such a fall as we are having this year.
Nebraska's scholarship record may
be suffering from it, but most of the
student's whistle the far-famed "I
don't care."

Student Opinon.
In a Student Opinion published re
cently, an organization of the Barbs
was offered as a possible solution for
the present condition of affa'rs By
suggesting a remedy the evil is ad
mitted. But the Barb organization is
the last thing this campus needs.
There has already been too much
Barb-Greek friction, and an organiza
tion such as this would be directed
against the Greeks, would certainly
net remedy the present unrest.
The fraternity organization is a
logical solution of many of our hous
ing and social problems at Nebraska,
and from these standpoints, which
are of greater importance than univer
sity politics, ihelr existence should
not be threatened as such a large
"anti" organization surely would.
But "ifs" must be simmered to facts.
Such an organization probab!y could
not and surely should not exist.
The Greeks are, as was stated, tbe
dominant factor, but the conclusion
drawn does not follow: That there
fore they should fill all major tludent
offices. These offices should be filled
by the most capable men In school,
reeardless of the organization to
which he belongs, whether to the dom
inant minor, or unorganized factor.
It is up to the dominant fraternity
organizations to see that this happens.
The "slmmerings": The Greeks are
the dominant factors. They shall, iu-so-far
as we can see, continue to be
for some time. In tha past they have
neglected the rights of the nnorgaa
ized student body (those who didn't
happen to have an athletic reputation

A THOUGHT FOR TODAY.
What Do You Want Most?
(From Side Talks by Ruth Cameron)
(What do you want most?
That is one of the most Important
things in the world to know. And one
would say it was one of the simplest.
And yet how many of us know what
we want most?
You can't have everything. That's
the law of the universe. You will have
to choose, and your choices are your
life.
Some people never choose , consci
ously. They Just muddle along, and
then lives and personalities are as in
determinate and meaningless and un
satisfactory as that word "muddle"
.suggests.
Other people choose what they want
most at the moment, without stopping
to weigh value and decide whether it
is what they want most for keeps.
It is only the wise few who look
things clearly and thoughtfully in the
face, and then decide what they want
most and go and get it
You can't have everything. You can't
have health and the pleasures that
destroy health. You can't have
effortless, easy life and the fine Wnd
of character you admire and whick
is bullded only by eternal Tigilance.
You can't have the appearance o1,
good grooming which you like so much
and that last half hour of sleep to
the moining. You can't have a well in
formed mind and yet devote all your
reading to easy novels.
Bu'. you can have almost anything
you really wan, provided you know
what you want most, and make aP
your mind today to go and get It- j
Why don't you! 1
