THE HESPERIAN
friends, but mi extensive correspondence is
too burdensome to be long continued.
Naturally they turn to the college paper for
what information it may afford. The editorial
board of that paper must of necessity be
made up of under-graduato students whoso
acquaintance with the alumni is not very ex
tensive. Alumni notes can only be had as
some one hears of them and reports them to
the editor.
In view of those conditions, we would
most respectfully urge that each alumnus
will not fail to consider himself hereby
called upon to aid us in making the alumni
column more valuable to those to whom it
should be valuable the alumni of the Uni
versity. The abovo is simply a short way of saying
please write us a letter. We make this re
quest to each alumnus or former student.
Tell us about yourself or any of your friends
who are known or ever wore known in the
University of Nebraska.
