Drinks for Thirsty
The Yellow Dog Saloon opens1 with
the first gun and closes when the last
dog is hung. There will be lots of
"yell" in the Yellow Dog Special and
a free whisk broom goes with every
drink so you can brush yourself off
when you get up. You'll have to ad
mit our stuff is the dog's bow-wow.
As proof of the merit of our special
we give our formula.
Chase wild bullfrogs for three miles
and trather the hops. To them add
ten gallons of tan bark, half a pint of
shellac, fourteen ounces ot sulpiiuric
acid, and one bar of home-made soap.
Boil 30 hours, then strain through
an I. W. W. sock to keep it from
working. Add one grasshopper to
each pint to give it a kick. Pour a
little into the kitchen sink. If it takes
the enamel off it is ready for bottling.
We wish to extend a cordial in
vitation to the faculty and students
of all the Colleges of the Univer
sity to be present at our Fifth An
nual Farmers' Fair, Saturday May
5, 1923.

GORNHUSKERS PLAY
T1GERSHERE TODAY
Missouri Here This WTeek End to
Avenge Defeat Given by
Nebraska.
Today at Rock Island ball park the
Nebraska baseball team will meet the
Missouri university nine in the first
of a two-game series. Missouri is
coming to meet the Cornhuskers bear
ing a grudge because it has already
lost twice to Nebraska and the at
tempt to settle it should produce some
real baseball playing.
The game today is scheduled to
start at 4 p. m. Saturday. The Agri
cultural college will be the battle field
as the game will be included in the
annual Farmers' Fair of the college.
Lewellen, mound star of the var
sity who was injured Dy naMiig
finger split open during practice this
wppk. is recovering and will be aoie
to pitch one of the two games. Hubka
will probably be on the receiving end
of the battery. It was reported that
Ppttv was below in some of his hours
and might be unable to play but thin
was not confirmed. Coach Earl Carr,
who took over the directorship of the
Husker machine this week from
Scotty Dye, announced that the re
mainder of the line-up would be prac
tically the same as that which met
Oklahoma last week.
It was reported that the Missou
rians were placing much confidence
in Knight, a whirlwind pitcher. Knight
was ineligible when the two teams
played before and consequently the
Nebraskans have jet to test his
strength.
PRESEN
PAGEANT
The Farmers' Fair, given by the
students of the College of Agricul
ture on their campus Saturday, is
scheduled as one of the greatest
events ever staged on that campus,
according to members of the commit
tee which are in charge of the affair.
The parade, at 11:30 in the morn
ing, will be more pretentious than any
of the past. Floats representing all
of the different branches of study on
that college will appear as parts of
the parade.
The Carnival
If you need a self-commencer, just
drop around to the "Yellow Dog
Saloon.". Lublications of all kinds
may be obtained here. In case you
do not indulge, plenty of beautiful,
entertaining bar maids will see that
your time will not be wasted.
The Devil's Den is Hades itself.
If you have any blots in your past,
your destination may be determined
by visiting these eternal tropics.
Moaning, shrieking skeletons will
walk to and fro among the molten
rocks. Clanking, clashing bones in
termingled with the gnashing of teeth
will constitute a turmoil. Do not
visit the Devil's Den unless you are
strong physically and morally.
Real Vaudeville !s Offered.
The Snorpheum Circuit manage
ment has taken special pains to se
cure the cast for this year's show.
The show is a splendid New York pro
duction and has been a successful ve
hicle for the Follies. This is the only
engagement the cast has in this sec
tion of the country.
The minstrel show this year prom
ises to be one of the best ever. Black
faced comedians and "Alabama
Roses' have been secured, and their
entertainment is rare. The show is a
continuous whirl of song, dancing,
and clever jokes, and includes a pro
gram of clean and wholesome wit and
humor.
Barbecue Meat Is Delicious.
The prize steer has been groomed
and fattened for many weeks and will
make the supreme sacrifice the morn
ing of the Fair. He will make his
final appearance at the barbecue in
the form of tender slabs of beef be
tween whole loaves of bread.
Hot doughnuts right out of the
kettle will be served at the doughnut
stand. Following in line with other
manufactured products since the war,
the holes in these doughnuts will be
smaller than ever before.
The Dippy. Dizzy Drum.
In case you get lost in the crowd,
or think north is south, or after an
exciting time at the Wild West show,
the Snorpheum, the dance or any of
the big attraction, a means of re
cuperation has been provdied. The
Dippy Dizzy Drum will instill exhil
arating energy and pep into the
wearv. After riding this Drum

Law and Order to
Be Safeguarded By
Fearless Ag Police
Led by their chief who can drill an
ace of spades at thirty yards, the Ag.
Police are out to see that everyone is
fully protected and that law and order
are observed on Farmers' Fair Day.
Ever since Farmers' Fair was started
six years ago, it has been found nec-
essary to have a group 01 siuuenw
to regulate the parking of autos, to
direct traffic, to give out information,
and to keep order.
For this purpose the County Sheriff
has sworn in a score of fearless stu
dents as deputies. If anyone desires
aid of any kind on the fair grounds
they have but to report to the police
for this is their business, and woe be
unto him who disturbs the peace, for
they are reckless men.
