The markings of tho judges In the
opening set of prliniinary debates
soem to be a cyujtable, or. the whole,
ns could bo txpscted from tho complex
system. One fact is especially notice
able, that Is, that of the entire sixteen
chosen to participate in the finals, but
one man received a place who spoke
first on the affirmative of his question.
This would suggest that possibly oth
ers who heid similar ps.tions did not
receive the grades thty uesoned. Upon
the founua.ion laid by the brat speak
er rests tho entire argument of the
question. It requires as much ability
to state and define a question clearly
as it does to formulato argument to
suppuri a proposition. To do this
properly roi,ulro3 tho groator portion
of the allotted twelvo minutes, loav.ng
little or no time for pure argument.
The one who can open a question prop
er y d.s rws as much credit as ho who
upholds tho piopts.tlons of his prede
cessors. This fact thould not be lost
sight of by tho judges, but should in
fluence them to a great extent In their
markings.
The cemp'tt on of the series of pre
liminary debates hcom to mark a now
epoch in i.ur universlt yiife. It shows
thai the spirit c.f debate is at prohont
on' of the ttrong st factors In our col
lege today.
Noser before haa thero boon nearly
the same number of contestants on
tered for theso debates, and what is
more strongly a uibjct of cong atu a
tlon, never beforo has thero boon so
few dropped out after once reglstored.
Not alone did tho debaters outer and
speak, but almost without exception
th.-y carefully prepared thomsolvos on
their rojpottlvo subjects. Fow, if any,
who debatod would not have done
credit to our university If they had
been among tho lucky ones. Thero
certainly were few, If any, of the con
testants who did not have a faint hope
of winning as a result of their hard
work. This was evidenced by the fact
that tho debaters almost as a whole
waited patiently on Monday evening
almost two hours for tho final decis
ion of tho judges.
Certainly If tho University has one
thing moro than another to congratu
late Itself upon this year It is the great
auccess of this annual preliminary de
bate. Somo tlmo ago tho Nebraskan men
tioned tho discipline committees in
vogue in Leland Stanford University.
Wo may have made a remark or two
"I was watching you all the tlmo,"
exclaimed he, "because I Immedlat"ly
picked you out for a divinity student."
Poor John managed to tell him that
he was only a plug electrician and he
told tho Brownie afterwards that he

because he was always getting hard
rubs, hut ho did feel bad for his new
suit of clothes.
VACATION NEWS.
Tho people who are so benighted ns
to Imagine that there Is no fun In town
during tho holldnys should have
stepped into Lincoln about Christmas
time when some of tho old timers were
sneaking Lack frcm the r headquarters
around the state. There wasn't so
awful much to do, of course, besides
sit In somo frat quarters and swap lies
or play alx-handel "Hearts." This
last was very popular however on ac
count of tho high Intellectual qua Idea
tion of "shilling tho queen" on somo
rcubeii college man who has been
"farmed out" at York since graduation.
Thero was a little skating, too. There
was a spot of ico at Lincoln park about
as big as a tambourine where Bert
Whedon would "cut tho llguro 3" for
hours without stopping. Ho was on
oxhlbltlon all day and looked very
nicely.
Doc Everett was in from Chicago
and was quite willing to be Inter
viewed. Ho epoke several times at the
Red Ribbon hall on "Resisting Trmp
tation in a Great City." Ho is the
samo earnest student as whon wp lnt
saw him. Ho will bo back In time for
tho convention of the Epworth League.
Allio Randolph also walked In fiom
York, whoro ho has boon Uachlng at
the colloge. Ho hadn't teen the bright
side of a plpo since ho left here and
was looking frail and unhappy. He
soon got In trim again arid learned
to Blng "Hot Time," and a few other
new songs which had not yet struck
hi- town. He found life In the city too
exciting, however, and started up to
somo little country berg seeking change
and rest ho particularly lacked
change.
"Chick" Abbott got It Into his head
one time when he was out to Lincoln
park to "frisk" tho hot tomalo sign.
Just as he got It off the building tho
owner came out of tho shed and gave
him an exciting foot race. Ho chased
him around tho park twice and finally
corralled him under tho switchback
where ho despolsled him of his sign
after belaboring him over tho scono
with a walllo iron. Chick tried to per
suade him that ho wanted the sign for
his grandmother, who waa starving,
