One sees Sousa as he is today, but

before he won the World War,
You've never heard the story?
Well, then if you must know, it
was Mr. Sousa's whiskers that preci
pitated the great conflict. We have
the word of Mr. Sousa for that. It
was this way: prior to the war Mr.
Sousa was the proud possessor of one
of vthe finest sets of whiskers in the
world. Equipped with them, he made
several expeditions abroad and in all
the courts of Europe the whiskers
and their proprietor were greeted
with acclaim. It was that way in Ger

UNIVERSITY OF NEBRASKA,
Won The War
I was afoot in 'Unter der Linden.'
The Kaiser was in the royal bar

itary manner, and he returned the
salute. I noticed that he got the full
effect of my whiskers.
"The second time I encountered
the Kaiser he again saluted me, but
this time there seemed to be less
enthusiasm in the gesture. I noticed,
too, that he turned slightly green
when he eyed my whiskers. I began
to detect a distinct aversion in the
Kaiser's attitude. Cn my last visit
before thn war, the Kaiser wan frank

presence, he merely glared at me.
This time he turned completely

New Luncheon Plan Proposed.
A letter has been sent out to the
presidents of the four class honorar
ies, Mystic Fish. Xi Delta, Silver Ser
pent and Valkyrie suggesting that
the organizations sponsor a luncheon
or any similar affair, to take the
place of the Cornhusker Luncheon
which will not be held this year be
cause of the impossibility of accomo
dating the number of women that de
sire to attend such an affair.
The letter is as follows: 'Since
the traditional annual Girls' Corn
huskrer Luncheon has been aban
doned, the Associated Women Stu
dents Board feels tout some siirilar
affairs should take the place of the
luncheon. ' -
The Board therefore suggests that
each of the class honoraries give a
a luncheon for all women of their re
spective classes. This may be given
at Ellen Smith Hall or elsewhere on
any convenient dale.
Remember that the Associated
Women's student Board stands ready

Third Chase Is Best One Yet

The race was the most successful
vet in the matter nf envino- the hnvii n
good workout, according to Coach
Jimmy Lewis. The course, as it was
originally laid out, was about two
miles in lenghth but most of the
runners covered considerably more
ground than the two miles. A
group of small boys had been playing
the game, and had added some trail
of their own, which was followed by
some of the runners.
The race was also the most suc
cessful in respect to the number com
peting. Over one hundred men were
out for the race. Due to the mixup
in finding the trail, the usual method
of scoring was not used. One point
was given to every man competing,
making the scoring as fair as was
possible.

ENFORCEMENT
TO BE STRICT
Stringent Prohibition Laws Are
Announced In Notice To
Chancellor's Office
MOVEMENT IS NATIONAL
Notice of the more stringent laws
concerning the prohibition act has
come to Chancellor Burnett's office
from Elmer E. Thomas, acting depu-
ty administrator of the prohibition
enforcement law for Nebraska. Es
pecial attention is called to the law
governing the transportation of li
quor in cars. There is a movement
all over the country toward strict en
forcement of the law.
The law reads "The federal law as
to the transportation of liquor is that
any person who shall illegally trans
port liquor or illegally have liquor in
his car may be fined $500.00 and his
car must be confiscated. If two or
more persons, men or women, are in
the car they are guilty of a conspir
acy to violate the National Prohibi
tion Act. The penalty for conspiracy
may be two years in the peniten
tiary."
The statement is made that here
after the penalties imposed by the law
will be strictly enforced upon all
persons who are convicted of this of
fence.
