"Made" wonc, which utilizes the large share of relief funds, tends to break the morale. All workers, skilled and unskilled, re ceive the same fixed wage under die present plan, discouraging former "white collar" men who find themselves on par with the common laborer. Miss Powell be lieves that the wage scale in re lief work should be made to cor respond to that in industry. The opportunities for trained workers in the social work field are great in the opinion of Miss Powell. It is. however, becoming practically impossible for un trained persons to find positions in the -ocation. altho many junior league members are active in re lief work. All of the social-work students in last year's class at this university have been placed m Lincoln or other mid-western cit ies, while many of the older gradu ate are located in agencies all over the country.

HAD IT cleopatra HELEN of TROY HAD IT ORG! COUNCIL FORGROUPACTION CADET OFFICERS DRAW SOPHOMORES' MIRTH Finds Diversity of Opinion About Commands Among Men in Ranks. There's both laughter and anxi ety in the sophomore ranks. Anxi ety, in most cases, because of the small number of first sergeants or platoon leaders that direct an R. O. T. C. drill unit. Laughter be cause every candidate for these Important positions is being given the opportunity to direct a platoon or squad. The diversity or opinions among the members of the squad or unit which is under the command of the candidate is alarming at least, to the commanding officer. "As you were" resounds frequently over the campus, as some mentally or orally upset "commanding of ficer makes a blunder. A aeian, unable to be halted by a wouldbe 'officer." was marched directly in to the fringe of bushes surround ing Memorial stadium. A cadet in the rear rank of the unit, desirous of maintaining order, to which barberry bushes are very disrupt ing, shouted the command, "I n- der cover, March!" But amidst hilarious confusion, the unit re belled at execution of the impul sive order. Botanically or sophomorically minded coeds scamper in all di rections as units under command of a new student officer approach. Upperclassmen watch, and smile covertly, as each candidate takes his position at the head of the unit which he is to direct. And, en visioning the life of an officer as one of peace and contentment, the R. O. T. C. cadets blissfully march onward. GIRLS ATTEND TEA, Tassels Made Hostesses; Mortar Boards Will Serve Lunch.

While industry is said to be reviving, the number of peo ple in Lincoln who will need help has not decreased.

Amercian Institution of 'Boy Friend Remains Mystery to French People "The American institution known as the "boy friend' "is some what of a mystery to the French people." Dr. Harold W. Stoke, instructor in the political science department who made this statement, spent eleven weeks touring Euro;e while on his vacation this past summer. His trip included England. France, Belgium, and Germany. "the French are intently in terested in this individual called the boy friend because such a per son is unknown to them. I read an article in a French paper thus summer." continued Stoke, "defin ing that term somewhat like this "The American boy friend is some thing of a combination of a brother, a fiance, and a flirt'." The French do not believe in the casual companionships amonr the young people such as are practiced here, stated Doctor Stoke. The ulti mate object of any friendship be tween a man and a woman in France is usually marriage. I'arri ags there are more or ! ar ranged aa a business proposition. The parents nf the prospective bride and bridegroom have more enjoyed liy the daily fur some u ginning of me campaign last .Mon day, according to Jennings. The total number of subscrip tions was hurtled upward w hen it was revealed that eve'-y organized house on the campus had either made their block subscriptions, or indicated that they would do so before the end of " the campaign, with the exception of one. Faculty subscriptions continued to pour steadily in yesterday, indi cating that before the end of the drive this Saturday the faculty will subscribe nearly 100 percent. The announcement that several new features would be aclrled t'l the regular publication of the Ne braskan gave impetus to the num ber subscribing Indications pointed yesterday to the fact that most students were subscribing to the $l.r0 rate for the year, taking advantage of the conveniently located distribution booths in Soical Science ball, and in the ag finance office on the ag campus. The new policy of distribution, Jennings declared yesterday, may be responsible for the increase in subscriptions. Contrary to the practice of last year, copies of the Nebraskan will not be distributed at the book stores near the cam pus. They will be available only at the regular distribution booths, or thru block subscriptions. In addition to the new regular rotogravure section picturing stu dent life and work in colleges all over the country, the Nebraskan will carry many additional fea tures concerning student life on this campus. "Nebraskan will carry feature this year that the student canml afford to miss," declared Jen nings. "We are satisfied, however, that the subscription drive has been as successful as it is. From all indications, by Saturday after noon the campaign will have realized a lager subscription list than ever before."

The French family is a stable institu tion. Evidence of this fact is the rarity of divorce there in com parison with America. Have Less Freedom. ' It is also true that girls in France have less freedom in their contacts with other young peopic than those of any other country in Europe which I visited." Doctor Stoke stated. It is very seldom that one sees girls the age of the aver age American coed on the ttreets in French cities." The reasons for this are. Stoke believes, that in the first place there are not aa many girls of that age in France. While they neces sarily reach the same age. the long period between adolescence and maturity which is exemplified by the American college weman is cut short in France. Secondly of French girli of that age. the great majority of them attend girls schools and are constantly chap emnd. While there are coeduca tional universities in France. tby (Continued on Fag 2.)
