Everybody known, too, how glad both professors and Htudents woro whon thin work was laid niilda and no longer mado a part of 'tho stato'H grout educational head. At tho Haino time, all felt Kind when last spring tho Preparatory Sohool was organ ized outside tho gntoH for It was clear that If mich woik had to bo carried on In Lincoln, It should bo dono In somo nuoh way us this. It Ih well known that close to all great unlvorsltlos there nro prlvato preparatory schools, and nil are a help to tho Institution they feed. Iowa univer sity, for example, has ti vory largo and prosperous feeder of this sort. Tho one ut Minnesota university Is even more prosperous, while at Chicago university, thero are a number cf thorn and all doing oxcellont work. At Cornell, tho board of regents oven Incorporated such a school, tho Onscadtlln school. Somo of tho pro fessors of tliu Nebraska university made their way through college by teaching In Just such a preparatory school as has been established horc. It Is evldontly the purpose of tho school to serve tho University In tho best pos sible way by giving the best preparation that can bo offered In tho s.ato. It car rlos all tho preparatory suhjeotb not given froo In tho University, and offers tho work at a rate so low that It certainly requires caroful business management and fore sight to mako the school tho succoss that It Is attaining. Already enough students have registered to Insure a good school for tho your, and yet It Is behoved that not half of those luivo registered who ex pect to attond. Tho school employs all Its Instructors upon recommendation of heads of departments of the University, and so secures tho very best Instructors' available, Instructors whoso work Is not merely acceptablo but worthy of nccert unco by any unlvcrslty.pr oxnmple, one of tho instructors In Engllsli, Mrs. Frunk Hn, has taught thirteen years In that sub ject, and for nlno years was head of tho department of English In the Kansas stato normal. Tho lust two years sho has been a spoclal Btudont in English lnnguago and literature at Chicago university, and Is Wghly recommended by that Institution and also by tho department of English of our own University. Students who want to do any preparatory work or who havo friends who aro coming, would do well to investigate tho preparatory school In tho Conservatory building. It may save tlmo and certainly will savo money. At any rato it can do no hurm to Investigate and then glvo 'tho sohool tho support it merits. The Students' Club, 1200 T streot.

But sho looked sweet! I kissed her! Sho sprang to her feet, "I thought you wero a gentleman," she said; "With scornful tone and glance. I lied. Then when remorso hnd gained control, And pcnltene qulto filled my soul, I wrote her with Impassioned pen And begged hor smile on mo again. I quoted Byron, Burns, Shakespeare, To soothe her hurt and pleaso her ear; I begged forgiveness and said I'd lost my heart, likewise my head. What did she say to all of this? Sho wrote, "For Just one llttlo kiss It seems you mako as much ado As If you'd taken twenty-two!" I'm suro you'll say I did Just right: I went round there that very night, And continuing whero I'd begun, I took my other twonty-one. Marlotta Collcgo Olio. Subscribe for Tho Nebraskan, only $1.00.
