RESPONSIBILITIES
When a student enters the univers
ity he must know that from then on
he will have to discharge his own
responsibilities and answer for his
own ob.igations. He must know that
they are his and he must meet them
himself and not plan to fall back on
his parents or those who have been
accustomed to support him or who
have assumed his duties for him.
Everybody must some day shoulder
a more or less heavy load of respon
sibilities; nobody can expect to go
bis way through life unincumbered
by any cares. When a person comes
to college he ought to be mature
enough and sensible enough to be
equal to his obligations and able to
discharge them creditably without
parental guidance.
The primary object of coming to
the university is to get an education
and if that fact is kept constantly
in the foreground, it will restrain the
temptations that tend to lure the
mind from work to play. People
have to learn to restrain impulses
and resist temptations, and the col
lege student ought to have su....cient
stanima about him to stick to his
good purpose in spite of other at
tractions. The conscience tells what
is right and what is wrong, and i.
the individual will power is not
strong enough to enable him to do as
his conscience dictates, there is
something wrong with him, and he
had betc-r start at once to correct his
weakness. Stevenson says: "You can
not run away from a weakness, you
must fight it out sometime or perish;
and if that be so, why not now and
where you stand?"
Contemporary Opinion
TIME BUDGETS
Some important wag has remarked
that it' the time the average student
wasted each day was to mean a finan
cial loss to him, he would be continu
ally broke instead of spaHmodically, as
is the case with the majority at the
prenent time.. Or else did lie say
that if every studf-nt were to be given
a penny for every moment wasted
during his college life, that all would
be mi.ionaires? Anyway, it was some
thing to that effect, and the wag'F
tongue that wagged that Baying or
eome similar saying certainly wagged
the truth in regard to far too manylf'tic coach and line up plan for ath-
collt-ge students, even at the Uuivers
ity of Utah.
True it is that the college student,
if he does all that is required of him.
would have his hands fairly full. But
still the average student has time
for all that is required of him plus
several college and outside activities.
And yet how often do we find the
student bewailing the fact that he
has not time to do this and to tio
that, when 'the aocomplishment of
these things should be his duty and
to his benefit? It is not so much that
he has not time to add one or two
more tasks to his seemingly already
full and overflowing day, hut rather a
natter of spending systematically an J
valuably the precious moments that
he wastes.
True also it is that the individual
cannot do everything that he wishes
and would like to accomplish. There
is a limit to all things. And tha
ability of each individual is bonded
by different limits. Others have gone
before us and others are with us now,
and others will follow us who have
done, are doing, and will do far more
Jn the twenty-four hours than most
Individuals would think humanly
possible. And yet erery one of us
baa the same twenty-four hours in
each day that we live to use in the
same manner. The trouble lies in
the fact that we fall to systematize,
are unab:e to evaluate the different
fnctions that we should perform, and
too . often procrastinate, thus losing
many valuable momenta In content
plating an act when if the time was
spent in performing it the task would
bo soon accomplished. Proscrnstin
ation is the blame of the existence
of many college students.
The individual who boasts that he
has nothing to do has much to learn.
There is never an excuse for idleness
Lost moments and hours can never
be made good, for the opportunities
lost in these moments and hours will
never appear the second time with
the possibilities for accomplishment
that they possessed the initial time
they came into our lives. There is al
ways something lost by waiting for
these opportunities to reappear.
Too often we forget our purpose
in attending an institution of higher
learning and fall by the twayside.
ust as the wise plan in regard to
finances is to place them on a budget
system, so is it the wise thing to do
to place the time at our disposal on
the budget system. For time now
saved means money gained now or in
the future. And besides money, time
well spent brings us the satisfaction
of knowing that our days are being
well spent. The student who sets o
time to do certain things and does
these tasks in that time set, if the
tasks are worth doing, cannot but be
repaid many fold for his systematic
endeavors. Time saving habits now
formed will serve the individual well
in future time. Utah Chronicle.

VESPERS.
Vespers this week was a traditional
affair as it represented a joint meeting
of the Y. W. C. A. and WT.. S. G. A.
Eleanor Duffield, the traveler's aid
lady at the Burlington depot, gave a
most interesting talk telling of her
varied experiences in that capacity.
Men as well as girls are cared for by
Miss Duffield. Everyone from Italians
who can scarcely speak a word of
English to children "tagged" for ship
ment come to her for information. Ir.
fact she seeks out work to do.
Great tact is to be employed in
approaching people, she said, for many
resent the proferred aid. Eyes are
her guide as to the tactics to be used,
she explained.
The Exhaust.
FOIBLES IN SLANG.
(By Girst Ade.)
No. 4 A College Type.
Out here upon our western plains
We find the university
Where suffering mortals go thru pains
That far eclipse diversity.
I A struggle tense for Learning Here
Is going on about us
The more we think, the Mce we
Fear
It Could go on Without us.
And out of all This endless din
What do we Find Emerging
Where does Nebraska enter In
The Spirit of this Surging.
In other words, In this Old School
Do we Evolve a type?
Can we recognize, here As a rule
A Nebraska Man with his Pipe?
Can we tell on Sight A Nebraska
girl
Is thereS nch a thing At Ail?
B.it Man or Girl, Mustache or Curl
What's Nebraska's .Place in It All?
Both TJ and I when All is Said
We merely Graduate
But the Thing that Goes to a College
man's head
Is the School Type Be it College
or State,
So when he Goes back to the Old
Campus scenes
And sees tbe "thirty-eights"
He can say that the Boys with their
Paws in their Jeans
Are Just Like bis Old Class Mates.

If the skirts come down in the
spring fashion parade, as the report
says, there'll be lots of long faces.
Somebody is all the time taking the
Joy out of life.
To pass in some of the xams, you

is but the prof says it is. Don't use
the book when you cram; use the
notes you have taken, where you
have jotted donw, "the prof thinks
this way about theory of convolution",
and you will most likely pass. Don't
let them know you think they are
egotistic.
When you seee a sweet young thing
coming wabbling down the street like
a pair of winding blades, with the
galoshes flapping like a pair of sails
on a scooner, don't it make you think
of the good old days of your child
hood when you use to dress up and
go to a tacky party?
When a girl; Jooks at you le
she knows you and gives you a half
cocked smile and suddenly switches
off into a sun grin, it makes a feller
feel kinda giddy, for a time and then
he quickens his gait and wonders
why some men go wrong.
Some people are so homely, that
they would make a board fence laugh,
but they go right on bothering; the
looking glass for about two or five
"hours a day, trying to get thei." own
consent to go out and circulate among
those "who are continually hurling
pretty bouquets and complimentary
decorations on those beauty-show
prize-winers who don't need it.
When a student has both arms full
of books, and his cap on backwards,
isn't it funny to watch him unexpectedly-
adjusting the books to tip
his hat to his best girl, and then for
getting that the cap is on backwards,
reaches for the bill and misses it by
about four inches, ending in a com
bination between a kick of a mule's
hind leg, and the first salute, of an
oer-excited rookie.
What do you suppose your girl, who
before you started to going with her
was accustomed to riding at super
speed in a Cadillac, would say if you
sailed her up and asked her to go
car riding with you and you were to
show her the city on the street car?
"Yes. we do raise a lot of Cain,"

After passing the shop of a florist
and reading 'Say it with Flowers"
and then reading a sign at a music
shop down the street, "Say it with
music' we wonder why they don't
have a "Say it with English" sign in
some of the O street hash houses.
Chit Chat.
Dear Jane:
Aren't girls the funny things?
Since you are such a consoling friend.
I hav ea little story to tell just to you
alone, and it is not to be repeated
because if some of those unsympa
thetic men would hear it I can just
see them hooting and jeering about
the inconsistency of women. The
other day I was waiting in the hall
of the Lib and at girl came rushing
up to another girl and in stratgetic
whispers she pants, "He's in there,"
and held her hand over her heart as if
it might get away.
"Who?"
"My secret lover!"
"Your secret lover? Why Jenn!"
"Oh, he is, he is, you know what I
mean, I've never dated him, he doesn't
know it, but I'm wild about him."
The other girl tried to look like she
understood and made a mess of it
because her mouth began to turn up
at the corners. A minute later an
other girl came bounding up and she
of the strange affliction imparted the
news to her in awed tones. This
one was the more congenial because
she said "Oh, is he? I wish I could
see t mine I haven't seen mine for
two days and then I only saw him
from the back."
B'lieve me I took it all in and again
I say Pm glad the men aren't on to
this latest amusement or every one
of them would think he was one of
the secretly loved ones.
'Course men wouldn't understand
they aren't gifted much in the ap
preciation of women's hearts and it
really seemed quite an event in their
young lives, tho I hate to admit it
myself.
