"Nothing in your own possession is more priceless than your health," do elated Dean Cutter. "If you could buy health and you had the money where with to buy it, each and every one of you would make sacrifices to obtain good health." The Dean pointed out that without health there can be no social happi ness. A man cannot be a good citi zen if his health Is not good. He also nude it plain that the control of dis ease rests in the hands of individuals and that when an individual becomes sick it is usually his own lault. In taking up the first requirement of health, that o fexercise, Dean Cutter explained that the body demands a certain amount of exercise. This de mand is greatest during childhood and from that time gradually decreases until death. He also pointed out that exercise was not so vital to the In dividual who had not been exercising regularly. Dean Cutter explained that an ath lete who had been exercising strenu ously could not suddenly stop this exercise without danger of his heart muscles becoming flabby. Using tech nical terms, Dean Cutter emphasized the fact that exercise was required to oxidize the food In the tissues of the body. Unless the body Is exercised there Is not enough oxagen taken in to complete this process. "It Is possible to dig your grave with your teeth" and food is our greatest friend an dour greatest enemy," were two statements mado by Dean Cutter In taking up the subpject of food. He also declared that most of us oat too much. Ho explained that there was a difference between the number of calories needed by a man working ten or twelve hours and the number need ed by a man In one of the semi-sedentary occupations. He told of an ex periment conducted at the medical school In Omaha, which disclosed the fai t that there the students ate about twice as much as they noeded. The ordinary Individual needs about 2,500 calories a day, but these students were fating 4,000 calories. "The eating of food has become a habit with us" the dean said. He Pointed out that the individuals who refuse some foods because these foods do not agree with him, is usually suf fering from a weak head rather than a weak stomach. "The mental attitude of the indlvl lioth mental rest and physical rest are requirements of good health, the dean explained. ' - "There are few foods, which when eaten In moderate amounts, will harm "H," Cutter stated. dual has more to do with restful sleep than any other factor," stated Dean Cutter. He also pointed out that six hours of good, sound sleep were more restful than ten or twelve of unsettled rest.

The stu dents of Minnesota set the goal for their Stadium-Auditorium fund at the minimum of $500,000 and the faculty and employes have pledged more than 170,000. These figures make the $90, 000 and $21,000, which the students and faculty members of the Univer sity of Nebraska, respectively, were expected to pledge, seem much smaller In comparison. The 1.B00 student and faculty work ers In the University of Minnesota, were able, In the first three days of '4 rv El DEAN I. S. CUTTER. Dean I. S.

Probably no other body of men in the world with the same incomes you have, would have done its well. Our alumni all over the world will congratulate themselves that they have had tlie privilege of calling you their teachers. They are more than proud of your great achieve ment and hope they will be able to keep step wilh you when their turn comes. HAROLD F. HOLTZ. Alumni Secretary.

Vespers Tuesday evening in Ellen Smith hall. Ruth Codington led the meeting aad Lillian Uanson pang for special music. Mrs. Lowe began thy saying that the Jap-'nse woman is as attract!- as her dress, with beautiful ivory features and black hair that is done with nclasses and oil to keep It smooth, 'ihe homes are very clean and "'I'tic. and fit the women. "But in spite of everything, Japan ese women are not happy. Theirs is a lot ofo three obediances: to their fathers before they are married, to their husbands after their marriage and to their older sons when they are widows." Subordination to men is the lot of tho Japanese women. There is no such thing as an un married woman in Japan. She usually doesn't see her husbabnd until she is taken to his house for the marriage ceremony. AH the arrangements are made by go-between of the two families. "The family system in Japan is deplorable," Mrs. Lowe said. "The matter is commonly discussed, and woman is more of a machine than a mother. It is pathetic that women are treated as creatures with no souls and no brains. "This is a woman's age in Japan as In other countries. Japanese women are working and are trying to find their places. They aro entering in dustrial life, though not the profes sional life yet. Japanese girls and women are too elated at their new freedom, and are breaking tho bonds of restraint. "More schools and Christian ideals aro needed to keep them steady," the speaker told tho girls. In telling about tho schools in Japan, Mrs. Lowe told of the terribly overcrowded conditions. There aro forty girl schools In Japan, which are of high school standing and offer five-year courses. Highest Test Is Given to Honor System in Exam. In a recent examination given in agricultural engineering classes the honor system was used. The examination which was given was too long to be completed in one period, and, rather than have the pa pers handed in incomplete, tho pro fessor allowed the students to come back the following week and finish the work after putting all of them on their honor that they would not dis cuss the questions or seek any Infor mation concerning them. According to a statement from the professor of the class and several students therein, the results were most favorable.

Excellent seats in the student sec tion will bo saved for the fathers and sons who come to the game together. Father will be charged $1X0 in place of tho regular $2.00. This Is an excellent opportunity for fathers to see the game that will prob ably decide the Missouri Valley title o f 1922.

An excellent insight into University life is one of tho best results to be obtained by fathers who come for Dad's Day, in the opinion of the com mittee. Except for the routine of study tho clay should bea typical one in the life of a University man. Chancellor Avery, Governor McKel vlo, and Mayor Zehrung, will probably speak at tho banquet to be held fol lowing the game. The committee hopes that this will end tho clay well. Kansas University had its "Dad's Day" last Saturday on the occasion of Its game with Oklahoma. Coach "Penny" Owe n, Oklahoma roach, and former K. U. quarterback, and Wil liam Allen White, prominent Kansas writer, spoke at a dinner that even ing. If Dad's Day is started well at Nebraska this year, those In charge believe that a fine tradition will have been set In motion.
