A problem which If treated right Would stack my papers Out of sight And fill my room And what is more Would even fill The second floor. But then there is No sense I fear To tell of all The ways they're queer Because I know They couldnt heed them Probably wouldn't Even read them. The power of speech In women grieves me Ya-ta-t-a, ya-tata Really peeves me A woman's words Are like a riddle Talk so much And say so little. Paint and powder Truly barm A Teal beauty's Natural charm I paint a house To stand the rain But paint on people Seems insane. Women pout And women worry Always late But never hurry A million things I could relate I got a date. Well, the weather outlook for Wednesday is typical of Nebras ka's sprint:: scattered showers and cool. Thomas M. Conway, Lincoln, Business Administration Adele M. Coryell, Lincoln Teachers Gale E.
