There has been a growing spirit in the University of Xebrnbkii in favor of de bating organizations and opposed to ota torical associations. I.nst ear arrange ments were made to bold annual debates with Kansas University, which proved an honor to both institutions in the de bate which was held in Kansas last June This year a greater mtetest is shown in the work and thirty-one have regis tered in the preliminary debates, which will determine who is to represent Ne braska in the next debate, which will be held in Lincoln. All the students should turn out to these preliminary debates and help this good work on. I here is nothing more helpful to a student who wishes to become ellicieut in public speaking than these debates, and we should do all we can to aid them. Among the important steps that the Uni versity has made this year is the found ing of this college debating association, and it is hoped that it will prove a -Jvucces We know how to receive a victorious foot ball team. We did it last year in a manner that was entirely satisfactory to all. Why can we not do it tins year? The result of the Denver game, whatever it may be, should not have any influence with the amount of enthusiasm we are to raise ou the team's return. The boys are coming back from their first trip. Now is the time to show your enthusi asm. There is no cause for waiting until tlie end of the season before any demon stration of our appreciation of the team's work is shown. We want to do it now. At the beginning of the season, when it will count, is the proper time. There ought to be a mass meeting called for Friday or Saturday afternoon or evening. That rope we used last year is stowed away in one of the Co-op lock ers. It is within easy reach. I.et a com mittee of two or three be appointed to make the proper arrangements, and with the co-operation of everyone we ought to have another "howling success." If all that can, will come to that mass meeting with very little time and trouble, a program can be arranged for the recep tion of the team. This ought to be done. It is our duty. Let some energetic fel low get ahold of this project and push it along it's a good thing. Jug to alTairs bicycle Now that the sug gestion has boon mnilc act upon it.

Of course there is a lit tle disappointment exptessed on their countenances at this neglect ou the part ol the managers in overlooking them, but they make up for it by taking one out of the box anyway.

Why do not our wheelmen orgnnUe a club? Judging from the number of wheels we see about the campus every day, we think an organization of this sort could have a large membership. Itoth the University and the wheelmen would be the gainers Some good bicycle races could be arranged for field day, interest ing wheeling matters could be discussed, possibly with a close organization some accommodations for the wheelmen could be seemed. Then one would not have to be wondering if his wheel was safe when he ought to be listening to a professo. "a lecture. Moreover the social advantages which the members would obtain would alone be worth what little trouble it takes to organize. Permission to use a room for regular meetings could be easily sec ured. Here discussions and a good social chat could be held, bringing men with a common hobby together. They would know what to talk about. Who ever saw two wheelmen, although they be total strangers, who could not thoroughly en joy themselves in a conversation pertain- AROUND THE CAMPUS. The Quarter-back, the Hanjo Fiend, tho Gilded Fool and the Mar Idiot were in a group near the south door, talking about the races. They had all been out to the paik the dav'betore that is, all except the Star Idiot, but since he was an exception to all gen eral rules ho was never counted in. The reason why the Star Idiot was not out was because he-did not know that the races were on that particular day. Ho had read the adveitiseinenls and had a vague idea that tliov wit- in corny fl sometime, but he did not think of looking lor the date, and, of course, no one told him, because they never told bun anything it was too useless. The Gilded Tool was evident ly very much worked up and his stam mering talk was full ot "honiestietch," "broken tandem" and "mini in blue suit." Whenever the Gilded Fool was intensely interested his tongue never seemed to work right, and today his speech was very ineohoient. lie was one of those very neivous people who got oxolMl over nothing and when anything interesting occurs are on the verge ol insanity. The Gilded Fool's, laugh was ptutly exuberant and partly hysterical. 'What made mo tired," stud the Quarter-back in his usual drawl, "was the way they cut us out of that last nice.' "JJut the riders had to catch the train," broke in the Gilded Fool. "Catch nothing,-' sniired the Uanjo Fiend. "Don't make that sort of a drive at mo. I'm from Missouri." "Why, I thought you were from Da kota," said tho Gilded Fool, iimonmiilv. The Gilded Fool could never grasp the moaning ol a slang phrase until after everyone had abandoned it on account of its age, and humor, except in its simplest stnges had no charms lor him. "I hoard an awfully funny story yes terduy," began the Stur Idiot, in his nerve-nicking monotone. "It was about " J ust then the door opened suddenly and the Social Straggler swept in. She did not notice the group near the radiator and was about to hurry on when a shaft of ijht from the closing door shone on the frater nity plu of the Uanjo Fiend. She turned around with a winning smile, which was the result of lonir and dili. gent practice, and greeted them indi vidually and collectively. The sparkle of a lrat pin had a wonderful effect on the Social Struggle:-. She had been brought up to believe that a frat pin was me symbol ol everythitnr desirable in mankind and she consequently took great pains to speak to the possessor oi every badge. The fact that she was a frat herself did not have anything to do with tho magical olio t the plu had ou tho mind and notions of tlm Suoliit Straggler. The Gilded Fool did not notice the Social Strugglur; ho was too luisv tolling tho Star Idiot how "tho second fuller passed tho II rat one and thou thoy wore caught up with by tho follor In blue and tho tandem wasn't In it and tho man in hluo boat by a half n wheel " Of course tho Slur Idiot did not know what ho was talkltur libout, but ho gavo him his undivided attention and looked very interested, which was enough Tor the Glided Fool. When ho did turn around ho was unite effusive and asked her If she had seen tho moos. She replied In the negative of course, since she never wont inuoh of anywhere except whore tho Glided l-'ool was her escort. "1 want to toil you people a story," began tho star Idiot, who soomod de termined to bo henid. "It was awful funny and " "Your English is bad," said tho Uanjo Fioml. "You should not mix your adjectives with adverbs." Tho Star Idiot was not in tho least hurt by this interruption and was going on when the Sweet (.'roaturo canto around tho corner and shut him oil' again, much to the relief of the rest of tho crowd. Tho Sweet Cieature was look ing for the Perfect Monde, but was not at all disappointed to run into the Quarter-back. Tho Gilded Fool im mediately began to toll hor how tho "man in blue won tho mile open by a half a wheel." The Hanjo Fiend was meanwhile grow lug restless; he did not eaietohoar tho Gilded Fool tell his tale for tho thirtieth time, and besides he saw tho Star Idiot watehiinr bis chanco to tell his story, so ho broke away and went over to tho mail box to talk with the Politic Maid. Ho did ! not admire the Politic Maid very much, but she had a charming cousin in school, and it was a good" plan to stand in with the family. The group by the radiator had been augmented by the Shy Youth and the Ladies' Man, and they wore all do ing their best to choke off the Gilded Fool. When he had told lliein for tho hundreth time that the "man in blue came over tho tape ami a half ahead," his breath gave out and he was com pelled to discontinue his narration. "1 heaid an awrully funny story," began the V-ir- IUiot again, "and it was just " but that minute the chapel bell rang and the Star Idiot's story was never told. n. S.
