Examination Cramming In Vogue;
Students Have No Time For Pleasure
The newest fad In the University
of Nebraska circles was introduced
this week. Yet It Is not a fad, rather
a semi-yearly event in the Cnrnhusk
er and every other institution of
learning.
The fad if such it may be called
Is that Bystem of study which has
long since been termed "cramming."
Examinations for the Tirst semester
commence next Saturday and stu
dents of the university have suddenly
become aware of the fact tliut they
know less about the subjects, they
are taking than they did at any other
time during the present semester.
So, forthwith, viewing the situation
carefully from all angles possible,
students have come to the conclusion
that the only way they are going to
be able to do proper Justice to them
selves is to absorb in from one in
seven days all the knowledge which a
hard-working corps of profes3crs has
been trying to pound Into them for
some seventeen weeks.
Classes for examination cramming
have become the custom amonf
many students. Each afternoon, or
at any time when any members of
them have moments to spare, a group
is formed and the absorbing of knowl
edge commences.
Pleasure, which during a part ot
the semester at least has taken tho
place of study in. the daily run of
many of the students, now lias no
place in their lives. They aie out
to get better than 60 per cent and
get It they must whether pleasure
suffers or not.
Friday night Is a closed night for
university students. It was uecreed
such when the examination comment
ment was decided as Saturday, Jan
uary 14. And even were it open, lit
tle patronage would be given to
parties or dances that night especial
ly by students who have examinations
on Saturday.
Dance halls and motion picture
theaters aie reported to have suffer
ed a severe loss in business this week.
The only cause for the loss is the
coming examination and tl;ey nie
cause sufficiency.
And so It comes to pass that exam
ination cramming has become the lat
est fad among university students.
PRINTING PLANT IS
READY FOR STUDENTS
All Necessary Equipment Install
edCan Start Work By
Next Semester.
Opening of the second semester oi
work In the University of Nebraska
will probably see a corps of students
working In the trade school printing
plant. All necessary equipment for
the plant has been installed and F.
A. Miles, Instructor, is about pre
pared to start handling the students.
The printing plant has been in the
process of completion ever since the
opening of school. Delays in ship
ments and other unavoidable ibreaks
in the run of delivering the equip
ment for the plant has so hampered
the work that the plant will not open
for at least a month later than it
otherwise might have. So far the
rlant has done much good work in the
printing of university stationary and
other small jobs.
A folding machine which was brok
en in the original shipment and sent
back to the manufacturers has been
replaced by a new one, a large stone
has been installed and a couple of
galley racks placed. All of the type
has been placed in the cases and are
ready for use.
Mr. Miles has, praaticajly every
thing lined up in preparation for the
coming in of the trades students. He
can handle nearly a dozen men in the
shop and about that many will prob
ably be placed.
JUDGE PALMER TALKS
C
ALUMNI NOTES
J
Supt. Everett Hosman of Ord, re
cently elected secretary of the state
teachers association, was a visitor at
the teachers college yesterday.
Dr. Lida B. Earhart of the faculty
of the teachers college who has been
quite ill, is in Rochester, Minn., wher;
she is getting along as well as can
be expected. She will probably be
back in a few days " to take up her
work.
Immensity of Potiltry Industry
In Various States Brought
Out in Talk Thursday.
The auditorium in agricultural hall
was filled Thursday afternoon, Janu
ary 5th, with poultry men gathered
here for the annual meeting of the
Nebraska State Poultry Association.
Mr. O. G. Smith of Kearney who was
scheduled to speak on, "How Hens
Have Helped,' was unable to be pres
ent on account of illness at home.
Mr. R. F. Palmer, a prominent judge,
spoke in his place. The first point
brought out by Mr. Palmer was the
immensity of the poultry Industry.
There are more people raising poult
ry, than any other one kind of live
stock. In one county alone the as
sessed valuation of poultry and poult
ry 'products was over a million dol
lars. It la a large, rapidy growing
industry. In discussing the Nebraska
State Poutlry Association he explained
that it is organized under the laws of
the state. It is as much a part of the
state as the university and receives
an appropriation regularly from the
state. He congratulated the associa
tion for encouraging the raising of
the more practical and popular breeds
other than the ultra fancy breeds. In
defense of the breeders of show stock
he showed that they were not fanatics
or cranks, but actually do a great deal
toward the Improvement of the breeds.
In a study of the poultry conditions
in the south, Mr. Palmer discovered
that in one instance a hen would have
to produce ninety eggs each year to
pay for her food and care. A two
hundred egg producer then would pro
duce one hundred and ten eggs profit.
A hundred, two hundred egg hens
would produce one thousand dollars
profit under those conditions. To pro
duce the same amount of profit it
would take twenty-eight, eight hund
red pound steers or eighteen thousand
pounds of cotton.
In conclusion, Mr. Palmer, brought
out the fact that on the average farm
the care of the poultry is left to the
farmer's wife. Since she does not
have the time to give proper atten
tion to the chickens, they fall to be a
profit producing enterprise, But If the
farmer would give his chickens the at
tention he gives to his other livestock,
they would become as profitable a
eide line as any other branch of farm
activities.

DANCE PRICES GOES
TUMBLING DOWNWARD
(Continued from page 1.)
than usual this year. The constant
draining of the pocket book which
the "dollar ten" charge caused has
been seriously hampering the finan
cial conditions among a good many
students. The reduction of thirty-five
cents, equal to almost one-third, will
find favor for all orchestras which
have taken it up.
CAST FOR OPERA
IS ANNOUNCED
(Continued From Page One.)
Their abiliry as stingers has. long
since become known to Lincoln peo
ple through their work during their
high school days. The Aeolian Sing
ers club is the only organization of
its kind in Lincoln.
Staging of the first act is scheduled
to take place Wednesday evening. The
chorus parts are all memorized and
only tho parts of the leading persons
are yet unprepared. Good progress is
being made on the opera and it will
be in readiness late in March.
H. O. Ferguson, director of music in
ths Lincoln public schools, has charge
of the opera.
COMMERCIAL CLUB SHINGLE
READY FOR DISTRIBUTION
Name Plate, Gift Of Pledges, is
Taken From Alpha Delta Pi House
All Bizad students who were initi
ated into the commercial club last
October can get their shingle by call
ing at the commercial club rooms this
weeek. Harm Harms has been able
to give a few of his services to the
club. To him credit must be given
for the clever way in which he printed
the shingles. Harry LaTowsry, presi
dent of the commercial club stated
that he was able to secure the valued
services of Mr. Harms only after co:
siderable talking. Mr. Harms is rap
idly coming to the fore as an artist
and penman to the commercial club
is indeed fortunate to get his serv
ices.
Alpha Delta Pi sorority is ha-
moaning the loss of a hammered
brass name plate which has since the
commencement of school this year
been adorning the front door of the'r
chapter house. On the Thursday be
fore the Christmas holiday vacation
some one decided the name plate was
not Just where it belonged. So ac
cordingly they walked upon the porch
of the house and unscrewed the plate,
from the door. It has been missing
ever since.
The name plat fll valued at
Learly S50. It was a beautiful piece
of brass work bearing the Groek let
ters of the sorority. It was purchased,
by the last year pledges and awarded
to the active chapter.
When school started this fall, the
plate was entirely finished and db
Hvered. Immediately It was placed
n th front door to welcome th
Tisitors and to tell passers-by that this
was the home of Alpha Delta h. u
was believed to be In safe repoae
there on the door end little thought
of it was given.
T,,f .nmA reason or otner, some
AU w
one decided the name piste should
net thusly sdorn the chapter nouse.
v . ramnvm! it from the door and
walked off with It without leering so
conditions.
May be a Joke.
The carrying off of the sorority
name plate may be only a joke. Such
things have been known to happen.
But in cases such as that, the things
carried off have usually been returned
in less time than has already elapsed
In the missing name plate.
Jokes if such it Is similar to that
have long since been condemned as
impractical. Carrying off the name
Dlate from the Alpha Delta Pi house
is no more a Joke than carrying off
a sign in front of a store would be.
If the plate was not carried off as
a Joke it was taken for Its physical
value. The plate as it exists can be
of value to none other than the sor
ority whose Greek letters It bears
The Dlate was prized more highly by
the sorority as a gift from its' 1920-
21 freshman than it was for its act
ual value.
The smallness of the act of carry-
lnr off the plate Is to be condemned
bv all students. It Is hoped that the
plate will soon repose again on the
front door of the sorority house so
that other fraternities and sororities
may feel safe in Investing In Ilka
door plates which are fitting decora
tions for front doors.
