I have my share of them. Here's just a few of the puzzlers that bother me: Do people who talk to them selves ever become boring? t Why is it that when the word limb is mentioned, men never think of arms? Isr.'t it imposing on yourself when you tax your memory? Do people laugh up their sleeves because their funny bone is up there ? Shouldn't the choke in an auto mobile be on the back seat driver? Do fighters go around wishing each other a "slap happy New Year?" Isn't it better to have halitosis than no breath at all? - Is leaving footprints in the sands of time a matter of just hav ing tig feet? What would a reform school alumni party be like? Do two stitches in time save eighteen? ' Aren't you somewhere else -than where you are when you are be side yourself? Niemann of New York addresses bizad class Economics classes in the college of business administration were addressed last week by H. H.

First music faculty recital wins praise of Daily critic Most successful and satisfying was the first of a series of three recitals presented by members of the faculty of the school of music in the Student Union ballroom Sunday afternoon. An audience of 300 heard this delightful concert which was sponsored by Mu Gamma chapter of Mu Thi Epsilon. national music sorority. Participants in the re citals were Miss Marian Wolfe, 'cellist; Frank Cunkle, organist; Hermann Decker, baritone, and Earnest Harrison, accompanist. Miss Wolfe, who joined the fac ulty this fall, displayed unusual technical and artistic talent in pre senting her two numbers. Her tone is unusually firm and round for a woman 'cellist and she ap proaches her instrument with a surety that delights. The two numbers that she played give ample opportunity for her to reveal her versatility. The first was the plaintive "Vocalise" of Rachmaninoff and the second the 'celloistic "Hungarian Rhap sodie" by Topper. Mr. Decker was heard in several numbers. His vibrant voice was especially well adapted to the lusty Salt-water Ballads by Kiel. Bar nett's "A Caravan from China Comes," provided a more romantic type of setting for his full baii, tone voice. Solemn and uplifting was Mr Cunkle's rendition of the three oho rale Preludes by Bach, with which, the program opened. He consis. tently demonstrated musicianship and artistry. Mr. Cunkle closed the recital with a competent and inspiring rendition of a Toccata of Mulct, "Thou Art the Rock." Mr. Harrison's accompaniments were done with a musical sense that was in no small measure re. sponsible for the success of the program. M. C Artist will supervise sketch class Thursday The hobby group sketch class will meet Thursday at 5 p. m. in room 315 of the Union where Miss Katherine Schwake, of the school of fine arts, will instruct students interested in learning how to sketch. A model will be present at this week's session. Ink and brushes have been added to the equipment provided to the hobby group by the Union so that sketch work can be done. (Continued from Page 1.) the doctor and his four aids treat about 125 patients a day, and per form from 15 to 20 operations. Al tho he is a medical missionary, Harrison's objective has been to bring healing and enlightenment to the natives. He has found many converts after such a course of treatment. Among his patients, Harrison finds representatives of all social classes. He has treated both shieks and slaves in a single session. It is here, on the outskirts of Muscat, that Dr. Harrison, with his meager equipment, tries to overcome the ignorance and superstitlion of the natives. A few years ago Jerome Beat tey, writing a series of articles for the "American Magazine" on fa mous Americans abroad, used Dr. Harrison as the subject of his initial article. Another article on his work, entitled "Surgery In Arabia." was written hy Dr. Har rison for the April 1931 edition of the "Nebraska Alumnus." Won P. B. K. honors. Dr. Harrison graduated from the university in 1905 with Phi Beta Kappa honors. He later took his medical degree from Johns Hop kins university, and was awarded an honorary masters degree by Yale. When he finished his educa tion Harrison decided to follow the carter of the Medical missionary. His first post was A labia. He has served there for almost 29 years. Every few years Harrison gets a leave of absence during which time he returns to the United States to visit his family. Each time he Is urged to give up the work he has undertaken, but each time he goes back to Muscat. Because of the adverse condi tions under which he is forced to work, Dr. Harrison, has teoome an authority on special methods of spinal anesthesia and the treat ment of hernia. Harrison has used such primitive ipparatus as a pressure cooker at.d a blow torch in sterilizing instruments and wounds. Now at 55, Harrison is known as the "Miracle Man" of Muscat. He operates his hospital on ap proximately $7,000 a year, which he collects runee by rupee from his patients.
