"V "o Be A corker.-'
Other committees have not yet
been selected, but will be eoon.
Much talent is lying latent wait
ing to be discovered," Grau said
vesterdav. "It seems to be the
opinion that this year's show will
be a corker."
Preliminary evidences indicate
that the show will be superior to
the one last year, which was so
favorably received that it was de
cided to make it an annual event
Last year was the first time the
festivity was held.
Coll-Agri-Fun was Initiated lat
year as a new activity on the agri
cultural campus- to fill a seed that
had been prevalent for some time.
In the college at the present time
thra is -much musical, dramatic
and other talent which might not

receivo any uuiitri, uun ui mc in
convenience of ag students be
cause of the distance in partici

in the opinion of its backers, and
is similar to the Kosmet Klub
which plans year round entertain
ment for Nebraskans.

LYMAN URGES AIL
TO BE VACCINATED
Ten Smallpox Cases in City
Warrant Attention Dean
Warns Students.
COLDS LESS FREQUENT
Ten cases of smallpox bave
been reported In Lincoln, accord
ing to Dr. R. A. Lyman, dean of
the college of pharmacy. Dr. Ly
man In an Interview yenterday
stated that this was an unusual
number of cases for the city of
Lincoln. He said that no cases
have been reported among univer
sity students yet but as a pre
caution against the spread of the
disease everyone should be vac
cinated against It
That la the only precaution
one can make against the dis
ease," declared Dr. Lymnn. "Vac
cinations may be obtained free
of charge In the student health
department located In room 204
of Pharmacy hall. It would be a
very wise messure for every per
son connected with the university
to get vaccinated. The university
has offered the vaccination free
of charge becaus It considers It
is to Its benefit to keep out the
disease, If possible."
Not Many Colds."
The cold epidemic has been
very light so far this year. There
have hardly been enough to call
It an epldctrlc, acordlng to the
dean. Only tU usual number of
cold cases have een treated at
the health dlspenBU-y. he said,
and the infirmary does not have
any patients. There have been
no cases of Influenza reported,
according to Dr. Lyman. Colds,
he said, are caused by exposure
and the manner to which people
care for themselves under chang
ing weather conditions. There
fore, because of the recent wea
ther changes, a certain number of
colds are to be exp-cted, he also
said."
Colds may be prevented many
times. Dr. Lyman thinks, by a
proper selection of food, avoid
ing over-fatigue, plenty of sleep,
with clothing enough to prevent
chilling of the body.

Dr. Reed Expresses Desire
That All Girls Attend
School With Males to
Pick Their Husbands.
Girls who wish to marry should
attend a coeducational institution,
ia the opinion of Dr. Anna Y.
Reed, a graduate of the University
of Nebraska, now in an eastern
university. In an article published
in the New York Times she stres
ses the value of such schools as a
medium to help young wom-m In
choosing their future husbands.
"If a girl were to get married,
and, of course, she should, then
she ought to go to a coed school,
where she will meet a lot of ro-n, '
said Dr. Reed. "She will meet, in
a coeducational college, various
types of men and leara which type
she best agrees with. Then,
whether she marries a college
mate or not, she will bave some
thing to guid j ber when she fin
ally makes ber choice."
Dr. Reed firmly believes that a
girl should have an opportunity to
compare herself mentally with the
man before she decides to marry
him.
"She Might Be Wrong!.'
