Spring lias comic and in spite of the rnvliifrs of sonic wild-eyed fanatics, wheel enthusiasts will don their golf suits and make the usual delightful country runs. There arc some ,you know, who always live n liundcr years behind the times. Do not. vxp'ct these to be reconciled to modern and sen sible ways. The only thing the university ha to regret of the recent, intercollegiate oratorical contest. Is the exceedingly low mark which her representative re ceived from the judges on manuscript. The N'cbrnxknn suggests that the manuscript needs strengthening bo fore. Mr. Talbot's chance of winning for the university in the Interstate con test. Is hazarded. In delivery the uni versity will have a tower of strength, but perfection cannot be too nearly reached hi either. Nebraska wnnrts fust place in the coming contest. For next Saturday, April 22, a base ball game with Washburn college, To peka, Kas., is announced, and for the following Wednesday a game with Mis souri State University. Here is an op portunity to see two good games of base ball on the home grounds and at the Kami1 time let the players know that the students are interested in the team and anxious to see it win. The success of the team will depend as much upon the reception given on the home grounds as upon the captain and the players. Go out and root for the team even if you have to lay aside some lesson for the moment. When you are on the grounds do noft lie afraid of your voice; use u ns treely as you would during a foot ball game with Kansas. The rules adopted by the athletic club for the election of the student members for the coming yeov arc pub lished in the Xebrnslvan's news col umns. In the election, which, accord ing to those rules, takes place May 10. every student should take an active interest. The success or failure of ith letics during the coming year depends largely upon the character of the men elected. The character of the men elected will depend largely upon tho interest taken by the stu dent, body. Every student should consider it his duty to see that representative men becomo can didates before April 2,", and that good men only are elected. Then it. should be equally everyone's duty to support the board when elected, in spite of any previous difference. A board elected according to the rules adopted, .vill necessarily represent, the majority of the student body and no one hereafter can have any valid excuse for not put ting a shoulder to the wheel and push ing for the university's representa tives, no matter on what tea.ni they may be. Now is the time to be ac tive, after the election the board will expect and deserve the undivided sup port, of the whole university. ADDITIONS TN ZOOLOGY.

Woman, woman, winsome woinanl Tell us are you saint or human, Or a toy Beelzebub ihas sent us from afar? We've thought about you, sighed about you, Stayed up nights and lied about you, puzzle that you are. .lust when, we dream we've got you Figured out, as like as not you Leave1 us topsy-turvy, guessing what to say or do; Now we hate yon, then caress you, Now berate you, then we bless u, But our lives are stale unless you keep us In a stew. Some there are who really dre.id yo, Some who long to woe and wed you, Sonic would banish you forever to a distant hind; Artists paint you, poets verse yon, Bishops saint you, cynics curse yon, But "for better or for worse" you still arc in demand. There are time you sadly vex us, Puzzle, plague us and preplex us, Till we wish you were in Texas, very far away; But, although we sadly doubt yon, You've such winsome ways about you We can never do without you, so we let you stay.
