Something Original Wanted. Hnmcfoimue is almost the next order t 1 hinss. Plans for a big Homecoming party aro -roups arc preparing for the annual house decorative competition. Most houses, in past vears, have done decorating of some form or other on this occasion, hoping that perchance ihey may receive the distinction nt a nrst P1 Here is another of those timely events which campus. On October '24 it is hoped that every fraternal order will appear in special Home coming dress. There is no cash prize : the ad vertising is of some value: but best ot all, it shows that students are really interested in some of Nebraska's traditions. "Look here!" someone pops up. ''The Daily Nebraskan is campaigning against deco rations. Why encourage such things?1' True this newspaper has dedicated itselt strenuously against the practice of going into extravagant dress up. Much editorial yardage has been addressed to the students appealing to them for a cut on social expenditures. Whether anything comes from it is hard 1o determine, but it must be admitted that, an ef fort has been made to bend the mass of student ! hot to one thing: Cut down on non-essentials so that wc can remain here to enjoy the worthy. Decorations for Homecoming day can be put up for little or no cost. That is why they are recommended. In times as these it is fool ish to spend twenty-five or more dollars for gaudiness which lasts but a day. It is true that the organization sponsoring Homecoming decorations sets twenty-five dol lars as the limit in expenditures for that pur pose. But that organization does not say twentv-five dollars must, be spent. It is also true that several lodges on the campus have been spending more than their allotted portion in setting up decorations for Homecoming. Some, investigations show, have exceeded the twenty-five dollar limit by sev eral additional dollars, perhaps even doubling that fixed amount. That must be checked : it is not fair to those groups which are conscien tious in sticking to the rules. The time has come for something original m Homecoming decorations. This is no year to do 1 hat. with extravagant money-spending. It is, rather, a year to do that with ideas which will cost little or nothing to put into effect. The prizes should not go to the house which spends the most money for the greatest display of gaudiness. They should go to that organiza tion which displays the greatest amount of initiative and ingenuity, combined with the least cost. Maybe the reason there are no reports of violations of the rushing rules is because fra ternities have found it is ton fx pensive to tell on each other. Combatting Student Disregard of Honor System. During years past, consecutively and unfail ingly there has born raised annually some agitation concerning the honor system at the University of Nebraska. .Some of the hue and cry has been scathing, derogatory, ironic, and depreciating in general tone the absense of the honor system within the walls of the in stitution. Irate protestors have expounded on the no ticeable dearth of honesty and honor among university students especially during written examinations. There has been a good deal of enfuriated and emblazoned copy written by proponents of an experiment of the plan. And now we blend our voice with those of the former standard bearers of the cause, and say in effest, "On with the honor system; may it scale the battlements of carlessness. neg ligence, indolence, and incomplete preparation and gain the castle of honesty situated on the summit of the hill of exclusive personal at tainment." It has long been the practice of a good many professors on the campus to combat this stu dent trend toward disdegard of the honor sys tem by an alternate seating plan coupled with two separate sets of questions for odd and even numbered seats. It has been the exper ience of every student at some time in his career to be sitting in an odd numbered seat when the even numbered questions are such that he could easily answer and do credit to himself; whereas the odd quest ious he can answer only in a mediocre and hazy manner. Obviously, the practice of such professors has arisen from necessity. How much to be preferred, one set of similar, fair questions and a class room of trustworthy students! Criminologists arc prone to say that one who is dishoiust in an exniiiiiiat ion will not lie above other forms of dishonesty. This, how ever, is not true at least in the majority of cases. A student recogni.ei the fact thai he is in school for a purpose; he realizes en exam ination grade til least represents tangible evidence of his knowledge of the course, and naturally he desires that grade to be ns crcdilible ns possible. Joe College arrives at an eight o'clock in a very hazy minded condition. Tuper is dis tributed; there is an exam on the outside reading assignment for the day which Joe has neglected to look up. Joesephine on his right, on the contrary, spent an hour in the library yesterday afternoon. Josephine writcs.a large and very legible hand, and Joe's eyes have a tendency to wander much In Jo-iephine's dis pleasure, which however she hesitates to show for fear of being thought n "scoofer" or u "wet blanket" or some Mich unpleasant sort of " low life. " y How much belter an intensive campaign for an honor system; a campaign for the support of the entire student body even as that of foot ball tickets and University Players! The above mentioned scene might then be re-enacted: Joe arrives at an eight o'clock: paper is distributed: there is to be an examina tion over an outside reading assignment. Hut Joe just laughs and laughs because he studied in the library too !

Some Worthy Ideas To Further Party Cam pat pi. An unsigned letter to the edilor sets foil.li seven vital points which would aid in cuHiirr the high cost of entertainment. They are astounding revelations and had the writer given his name, we could and would have pub lished the entire letter. Here are the points as outlined : 1 Combine all fraternities into one. 2. Hold all parties in barns or on street corners. o. Bring guests to the spot in street cars. 4. Use a portable phonograph to furnish music. 3. Serve lollypops for refreshments. (The sticks make useful as well as inexpensive favors. ) 6. Begin at, five and close at seven. (Saxes light bill.) 7. I'se four-inch lengths of hemp for smokes. Company K, Second lieutenant.

TO THE EDITOR: In regard to the letter in your "Morning Mail" of Oct. 9. containing the ravings of some person who signs himself J. H. the Marb council wishes to present the facts as they are. In the first place J. H. would have no doubt saved himself a considerable amount of em barrassment if he had taken time to investi gate the facts before he attempted to tell why the price, of All-University parties should be lowered. He says that the alleged high admissions cut down the attendance and tend to make the parties date affairs. This can hardly be true since Ave believe that the number of stags at these parlies offer ample refutation to this statement. He speak,s of ihc parties given during lhc summer session at which the admission was ten cents per couple. Either intentionally or thru his own ignorance he has neglected to mention that thQ Igal tost ot these parties came from the ticrelmnn fee that each student paid at the beginning of the year. If he doubts this statement the council feels sure that our good friend Prof. Lantz will be glad to prove this to him. If he desires to investigate things in a real way, let him discover why the same plan is not. used for the regular school session! J. H. says that orchestras can be cngavrcd for $60. The Barb council wishes to say thai if J. H. can show us an orchestra of the calibre that we have been using, for 1 hat price, we will be only too glad to pay him a commission of at least V-'O. From the tone of the letter written by .1. II. he seems to assume that tbe only costs is I lie decorations and the orchestra. Did he inten tionally locket the advertising, punch, elec trician fees, cost of using university trucks, and several other items? It might surprise him to learn that the university charges Ihe Barb council $.")0.00 plus janitor fees every time the coliseum" is used 1o put. on a parly. 1-ct .1. H. take that burden off the parties if he wishes to see lower prices! The Barb council has attempted to gie parties on Friday and we find lhat the attend ance is less than on Saturday. This can be verified by the records at the finance office. J. H. asks what the council does with the money that is taken in on the parlies. Per haps he would be vastly interested to know that Mith the small surplus the council has. it sends flowers every week to the infirmary. J. H. might also be interested to know that the council itself never so much as sees the money it takes in on these parties. It is all handled by the finance office. THE BARB COUNCIL.

OCTOBER COUNTRYMAN PUBLISHED TOMORROW (Continued from Page l.i culture as the basic industry of the world. "Hayseed and Haywire, as written In the Daily Nebraskan last year, again appears in the Countryman. The author of the column, Is George Round. In tha October issue, Round criticizes the Lincoln police department for not keeping the Ag campus clear of cars parked in non-parking dis tricts. Probably one of the most inter esting stories in th"? magazine is the on,; supposedly written by Otto Dillon. The title of the story, "How I Became the Biggest Little Man," is in the form of a reputed interview given by Dillon to Otto B. Shot. Two pictures show how Dillon looked at. the age of twelve and later at fifty. It is thought to be the first time ti humorous story has been printed in the Countryman. Still another story tells how Delphin Nash is working his way thru school by s?lling potaoes. In another article Kva Buel tells how Helen Hengsller gives piano les sons for college finances.

M "A Planned Social and Economic Order" CAST OF FIRST PLAYERS SHOW RELEASED TODAY (Continued from Page 1.) of the unity of Time. The past, the present, the future are one for those to whom the veil is thin, and so it is that young Peter Stan dish, inheritor of a Queen Anne house on Berkeley Square, is able to step back into the twilight on an October day in the London of 1784 and live for a time the ex periences which his ancestor en joyed there. Not all of those experiences does he enjoy, though, for it was Kate Pettigrew his ancestor married, and it is with Helen, that Peter, defying time and the things that happened, falls in love. The play has a high element of mysticism and the scenes shift from 1784 to 1928. Much of the play is done in costume and these are being imported for the produc tion. Herbert Yenne, who plays the part of Peter Standish, is a mem ber of the dramatic department faculty and Robert Reade is stage director for the Players.

The five riles added to speed limits in llic business and residential districts seem 1o. testify that police officials are merely bowing to con ditions which are too much for them, for oonly those who will never drive any faster obeyed the old rules. The most damning accusations have been ap plied to the recklessness of student driving by members of that public -which watches the ac tivities of university students with hawklike activity. Students are the more spectacular in all they do merely because they are students. They are the moer confident because they a-e young. They will take a chance on "getting away with it." and discredit the possibility of accident. We suggest that speed limits be raised so high that only the elite of ihe motor population can maintain thru'. At least, fail ure would bo no innovation.--Oaily Californ-ian. Dr. O. D.
