PROPAGANDA AGAIN.
Propaganda we always have with
us. Whether it is grood or bad, dan
porous or safe, depends upon our
point of view. When we dislike or
fear the uver of ideas and his pro
duct, ve say it is propaganda. Jurt
now we are the victims of propa
ganda of a peculiar organization, one
which has no officers that w can
blame, and no permanent members.
It is the most, democratic organization
in the University of Nebraska, or
perhaps the most exclusive.
This mysterious society meets lut
once a year, and this meeting which
takes the form of a banquet is de
scribed as a brilliant affair, and we
believe that brilliant is the proper
word, and that it represents no ex
aggeration, literarlly speaking.
The fame eligibility rules for
membership prevail each year, are
very strict, and the membership com
mittee approves or disapproves each
prospective member with nice dis
crimination. It is a society out of
reach of the "climbers" and "join
ers,"' for one must be endowed with
natural qualities to be eligible. Like
geniuses, members are born, and not
made.
So, on March 8, the Order of the
Golden Fleece will frolic and make
merry at Ellen Smith hall, and hold
its annual competition to determine
the "red-headedest" of the "red-head
gals" registered in the University of
Nebraska.
Eight prizes are to be awarded for
WEEKLY ETIQUETTE LESSON.
The pair of chop-sticks offered for the b?st solution of the problem
last week was won by a gentleman who signed his answer "Three Fi Fi
Omegas." He said, "all things come to him who waits and he has it
coming."
This week we are offering a beautifully decorated, excellently printed,
picture of a telephone used by George Washington. Who'll be the lucky
one? The problem was sent to us and we will pass it on to the readers.
"In eating pie should you hold it in your right or left hand?".
Among University students smoking is a habit that is evidently disap
pearing for at an Arts and Science college smoker the other night only
3 per cent of the students of that college attended.
'
And 3 per cent is a rather low rate of interest, it seems to us.
But it doesn't mean a thing.
ADVICE FREE AS AIR BUT NOT AS VALUABLE.
To the Editor of The Morning After: "I have attended the University
for seven semesters and at the end of the current one I will be graduated.
I am now confronted with the problem of earning a living. Could you give
me some advice in the matter?" - "PERPLEXED."
My dear "Perplexed :" You are not the only one so are we. It would
be extremely difficult for us to recommend the exact line of work that you
should engage in but we will give you a few general suggestions. You
should seek employment in some trade, or profession, or in the industrial
world. Once vou find work that is satisfactory it is unlikely that your

well not to mention it. Nevertheless, University graduates are frequently
very successful. We were reading recently of a graduate of a large uni
versity, who at his death left a fortune of ? 100,000. This was accumulated
through painstaking effort and unceasing toil, coupled with a good imagina
tion, remarkable foresight, and the death of an uncle who left him $99,500.
You can readily see that the situation is not as dark as you 'believe
it to be. We are glad to have been of service to you.

First we would like to state that in beginning this column we had but
one purpose in mind that of service to humanity. It was pointed out to
us that the serious business of University life needed its "drop of oil" and
we feel that we have! been very successful in pouring forth the desired
lubricant, for only last week we heard a fellow refer to us as an "oil can."
In view of the fact that at the start we adopted as our slogan "Humanity
First," it was only natural that the spirit of martyrdom would permeate our
being and restrain us from signing our weekly effort. (No pun permitted.)
Conditions have changed, however, and the daily flood of requests have
convinced us that it is our duty to tell our fellow men who we are. Here
after the contents of this column will appear over the signature:
"HERR BRAINS."

WRESTLERS BEAT KANSAS.
The Nebraska wrestling team de
feated the University of Kansas ag
gregation at a dual meet at Law
rence Friday night, at a score of 18
to 5. This is the first time this year
that' a Nebraska team has triumphed
over Kansas, and it was up to the
wrestlers to see that Kansas came
up on the short end of the score.
The Kansas-Nebraska football
game was a tie, Kansas won both bas
ketball contests and the cross coun
try race, so the wrestlers were
forced to defeat the Jayhawks and
retreiver Nebraska's prestige in the
south.
The wrestlers won their first meet
with Northwestern and this second
victory gives them a clean slate so
far this season.

MY ATHLETIC CONFF.SION
OF FAITH
(Sigma Alpha Epsilon Record)
I believe in athletics, but I believe
in it as a means to an end and not as
an end in itself.
I believe that the body is the ser
vant of the mind and of the spirit and
that it therefore merits the fullest
development.
I believe that the primary object of
athletics is recreational, for the relax
ation of the nerves, the stimulation of
the muscles, and the diversion of the
mind; that amusement is a secondary
object incidental to diversion; and
that the feature of contest is stimu
lating to mental and muscular pro
cesses but of somewhat doubtful
value as relaxation.
I believe that it takes brains to be
a successful athlete., that the game
must be played with the head as well
as with the feet or bands, and I there
on him; even when he is "going his
best gait," I am always waiting for
him to " blow up." I am dristrustful
of his grit.
I believe that athletics is of the
essence of play and loses immeasur
ably when it becomes a business or
a profession.
I believe that college athletics
should be college students at their
play and that the so-called college
athlete or varsity man should be a
representative man at his play and
not merely a man of physical skill
temporarily domiciled within college
walls.
I believe that college athletics has
its grave dangers, and that chief
among them are the excessive de
mands upon the time and strength of
valuation of victory, and the com
mercialization of contests.
I believe that college athletics has
become a burden instead of a recre
ation for many of its followers, that
too few are participants in its active
exercise and too many are onlookers
trying to get its advantages by proxy,
that the college athlete is in danger
of becoming a professional enter
tainer instead of an amateur sportsman.
I believe that while he who plays
should play to win, victory is less im
portant than the fine spirit of en
deavor, that the object should be
" not the laurel but the race."
I believe that the intercollegiate
contest is being made an elaborately
staged theatrical instead of & simple
game and that the expense of equip
ment is becoming a burden.
I believe that the preservation of
the amateur status of college athletics
is essential to its maintainance of a
secure place in the college scheme,
I believe that if the growing dis
advantages of athletics are allowed to
become greater than its advantages,
there is strength of mind and purpose
enough in college faculties and col
lege students to blast the whole thing
into a thousand fragments.
I believe however, that there is
too much good in athletics to allow
the evil to submerge it, and that the
