Personally, I have never kissed a girl. When I was a little
boy ray Sunday School teacher had all the kids in my class sign
a pledge that we wouldn't kiss any girl until we were twenty,
one years old.
Slif turned the plodjrc card over to my father, who en
forced it rigidly, lie followed me around all the time. He even
kept a graduate chemist in the house to analyze my breath for
slight traces of lipstick.
Once he thought he would trip me up. We were sitting at
the dinner table, when suddenly be said: "Who was that lady
1 saw you kissing last night?"
"That was no lady, I was reading a book," I said.
I had made extensive plans to catch up for lost time, on
my Iwenly-first birthday. My father suspected this, and was

pressed to contact tne tsriusn
Rnnnlv Council and broach the
idea, which met with instant ap

From a Letter:
Ouotintr from a letter by Fran
cis Flood, former Nebraskan now
with the British Supply council
"You will notice the emphasis
on bread and flour products and
potatoes and the relative aosence
of meat, butter, fats and milk.
The bread by the way is 85 per
cent extraction.
"I think it is well to remember
ton that the small list of available
foods is the same week after week
and month after month. Altho
the Enalish oeople are not starv
inn at all because there is a rela
tive abundance of bread and po
tatoes, the variety is so monoto
nous that one rarely has the feel
ing of real satisfaction after any
meal.
"The situation is, of course, im
nroved since Lend-Lease food be
gan arriving . . . However, you
can tell from the enclosed menus,
Britain will need all the food that
she can aet which ... is limited
horaiKte of shiDDina facilities,
since England depended pre-war
for more than half her food supply
on importations, most of it now
from countries occupied by tne
nazis. '
Mr. Flood was on the Organized
Agriculture nroeram in Lincoln
this February.

ness comes the promotion of all
student civilian defense projects.
One of the most rec-nt and most
campus-raising was the Draft
Dance for which 100 coeds were
drafted to entertain an equal num
ber of soldiers from the Lincoln
flying school. Draft registration
was held for five d:iys during
which the gills were given num
bers and matched according to
their prospective dates' heights.
Dancing lasted in the Union
ballroom from 7 to 9 p. m. on a
week night, and enthusiastic com
ments were heard on all sides.
Also in the dancins line arc the
regular Defense Matinee Dances,
nponsored by the Council every
convenient Saturday afternoon in
the Union ballroom. Admission for
these dances is the price of a 10
r 25 cent defense stamp which i.
then returned to the dancer to put
in his defense stamp book.
Planned to keen Cornhusker
soldiers in service over the coun
try up to the minute on campus
doings, a monthly news letter is
sent to over 300 former Nebraska
men. '
Sponsors First Aid Classes.
Sponsored by the Council, last
winter's classes in first aid were
given to about 75 students who
signed for instruction. A certifi
cate was given at the successful
completion of the ten-week course.
Instructors volunteered their serv
ices, and four classes were or
ganized at different times during
the week. Three met in the Union,
while the fourth was accommo
dated at Carrie K.llr- Raymond
hall.
During the recent city victory
brwik campaign to collect books to
send to the loys in service and
overseas, the Council gave the
chairmanship of an affiliated cam
pus campaign to members Laurd

Over 5.500 books were collected
from Nebraska. Also for U. S. and
British soldiers was the British
War Relief association center
housed in the Union Commuters'
clubroom. Hundreds of sweaters,
scarves, mittens, and helmets were
made by volunteer coed knitters.
Contributes to Red Cross.
From the proceeds of the va
riety show, "High Jinks," put on
bv student talent entirely, the
Council made $135 which was
turned eiver to the Hed Cross war
fund. Thru the rale of tickets to a
local showine of "A lank in 'he
R. A. F.." with the understanding:
that 1 0 cent of each ticket would be
riven to benefit the British War
Relief, a gexd sum of money was
donated to that organization.
To the Fert Croek recreation
center, by solicitation cf various
campus organizations, the Coun
cil was able to give VJ0 plus a
lame amount of equipment.
