A Grand Old Man
There may be some instructor in this univer
sity who view their position in the lipht of a busi
ness just another way to make money. If there
re any, we question their business acumen. In
fact, the professional spirit of service so far out
weighs a desire for gain that
Take the record of Dr. A. U Candy, whose
fcOth birthday the university joins him in celebrat
ing today. Senior member of our faculty, he has
seen three generations of students receive their de
grees. Would his interest in the students the time
he spent on their problems indicate anything but
devotion to the welfare of another generation?
We of the Nebraskan are prone to point with
alarm at instructors who leave these classrooms
for larger salaries, in an effort to call the attention
of the legislature and the people of the state to our
Instructional needs. We often overlook those men
who know that an opportunity for service exists
wherever they are, and who stay at Nebraska be
cause they have become familiar with our problems.
Today we honor Dr. Candy, whose influence
will be felt long after the achievements of text writ
ing pedants are forgotten. And Dr. Candy, we feei
sure, would be first to give us permission to extend
laurels to all those instructors to whom students are
more than numerical entities.
Someday, the Nebraskan would like to print,
not a list of those instructors who received higher
salaries and left Nebraska, but those who received
bigger offers and stayed. Wind of such offers
sometimes leaks out from the other end; the World
Herald found enough of them to make up a story
some weeks ago. But we'd have a hard time get
ting our information from the professors them
selves; that kind of an instructor wants no public
recognition. He gets reward enough from the
friendship and appreciation of his students.
Dr. Fashion Prescribes New Jigger
or Tailored Suits to Cure the Blues
Style Dictates Twills, Serges
of Beige, Blue for
Daytime Wear.
Suits will be the favorite day
time costume this year, espe
cially the tailored suits which are
not nearly so mannish as those
shown last season. As during the
previous coronation year, twills
and serges will once again hold
the center of the stage. Navy will
predominate in all suit materials
and will be combined with beige
contrast. An interesting feature of
the silhouette will be the pleated
peplum of the jacket and the high
trouser line of the skirt. Old fash
ioned braid has been revived to
adorn the edges of many of the
. suits, and high flap pockets are
very much in evidence.
Jigger Suit Popular.
Perhaps the most popular suit
this spring will be the "jigger''
suit which has a loose hanging
New Peasant Theme
Brings Color, (iaiely
for Spriiifi l a-liion
Variously called dirndl, Basque,
Tyrolean, and Dalmatian, a dis
tinct peasant innovation appears
on this season's fashion front.
Smocking and gathers are the fea
tured points about these costume
frocks.
For festive occasions when one
desires casual clothe6, different
from the studied formal town
. models, style experts suggest 1
evening gown with billowing gath
ered skirts, enormously full, of
splashy peasant print or gaily
flowered poplin. Topping it off is
a black fitted velveteen bodice
with perky sleeves.
Bright blue piquet with thy
usual swing skirt adapts itself to
street wear. Its tidy little, jacket
Is almost covered with white peas
ant cross stitching.
Ever since the "dirndl," with its
fitted bodice and flaring skirt sp
peared, Paris has been playing
with the idea as a coming sil
houette. Now the "Basque" is their
contribution as the silhouet of the
season.

A Familiar Sijht,
(trowing in Significance
No male student who has taken basic military
science and mighty few haven't cannot recall the
first time he encountered the encampment of the
Nebraska Well Drillers association. With the same
humble and inquiring spirit that causes Columnist
Meyer to sample Ag college steaks or roam thru
Avery laboratory, we used to puzzle over the in
tricate machinery that jammed the corridors of col
lapsing Nebraska hall.
When we become seniors, we begin to think in
abstract quantities and forget the painted apparatus
that somehow digs wells. Some question like a de
clining university appropriation is bound to pop up
and trouble the adolescent mind, which immediately
begins to think in terms of the state's resources,
square miles, and grain market quotations.
Our agricultural state is undergoing a funda
mental change. It is facing adaptation to a new
set of natural conditions, and these well drillers who
convene annually in Nebraska hall are slated to
take an important role in future developments.
If dust storms mean more to you than an addi
tional car wash, if the federal agricultural agencies
were any more than so much alphabet soup, and if
the increasing crop failures of Nebraska farms
spelled more than a smaller Christmas trade, you
probably have some conception of the crisis that
agriculture is facing.
Of course, agriculture isn't the chief concern of
all the well drillers; the activities of some in south
eastern and western sections of the state demon
strates their belief that "There's liquid yellow gold
in them thar hills."
But most of them are thinking of a crystal
liquid far below the soil that makes corn grow from
the baked, arid earth. They point to the success
of pump irrigation in the Elkhorn valley, and the
increasing interest the federal government is show
ing in its development.
So when you next put on your monkey suit and
clamber up the sagging stairs to drill class, pass
that convention scene with something more than a
bewildered air. What potatoes did for the Irish,
and what the cotton gin did for the south, wells and
pumps may some day accomplish for Nebraska.

so fresh that they make you catch
