'Rut tho troublo thnt tho registrar and her assist ants must undergo as a result of his neg ligence. Is another side of tho question whleh must be considered. Suroly the ofllco would bo Justified In not making any attempt to rind mtoh n one. Owing to tho unusual business depres sion this yenr, tho task of publishing tho Sombroro will be harder thnn nt first sup posed. To prevent It being a llnanclnl failure, every student must sbouldor a little of the responsibility. Thoro Is such a largo number of our studonts who lot these things pass as not concerning thorn, that no enthusiasm or Interest Is displayed at all as to tho probable outcome of this onterprlso. Truo tho business managers liavo been elected to tnko tho financial responsibility of tho publication of tho Sombroro. Hut unless a llttlo more caro nnd Interest Is shown by a lnrgo number, It can bo said Justly, that the business mnnngors wore solicited to tako charge under false pretenses. Thlp Is roally what It amounts to. A student should not reason that ho can get nlong without a copy of the Sombroro, thoroforo ho will not got one. Ho should reason thnt ho must not permit himsolf to be without one, and mnko a sncrlflco somowhero olso to procuro a volume. The work tho department of publicity Is doing for tho unlvorslty will probably result tho most beneficially of any that can bo directed toward advertising the university fnvorably. It Is the object of this department to procure Interesting ar ticles on university subjects, and send them to vnrlous newspnpors and period icals, which aro glad to receive them. Tho Omaha and Chlcngo papers will bo supplied with Interesting matter from our unlvorslty. Besides these, the homo pa pers and the Wostorn Newspaper union aro well supplied. Tho latter company print the Inside pages of nearly ovory country weekly In Nebraska, A groat deal of university matter finds It way Into these columns, through the department of publicity. This mattor could not bo put In a better space, ns It nlfords state news to ovory render of country pupors In Nebras ka. Professor Taylor has ohargo of this departmont, nnd ho Is pushing It with all of his characteristic business sagacity. All the members of tho Journalism class are assigned special subjects, from which they aro to work up special nrtlcles. As credit 1b given for this work, tho students lmvo tho time to Inquire Into their topics and get details und facts that tho ordin ary wrltor would not stop to Inquire about. Professor Tnyloi would be glad to re ceive articles from any of tho students, with a vlow of having them published. In some of tho numerous publications to which ho has access.

Tho Mndam never smiled, a smllo might de rango tho workings of her Jnws and spoil the rythmic bear-trap action. Ho was u little lad of twelve yeurs. In tho cub of tho great dead engine ho worked tho levers and dreamed that she lived and moved to his touch, Evory day ho camo down to the shops and climbing into tho scut of tho master hand prepared to pull No. 4 over division I for a record.

The quick sharp chuck or hor panting breuth as his old 600 feels tho touch, rings like music to his ears. He Is chilled to metal, a part of his flying machine trembles with de lightputs the levers Impatiently, whls pors excitedly to tho flashing wheels, urg ing them faster, faster.

The mori bund trees and shrubs In tho nakedness of their desolation stand as butts for tho rudo Jokes of the vulgar wind.
