t ' ' . The. Nebraskan-Hesperian & Wotes anb Comments As wo go to press it looks a good tloal like ram. There's no place like home. There's nothing liko the mumps, either. As a .rule a person Is judged by his cpearancc, Ins clothes, ui.til he Is known by his words and works. You can wear any old thing If people know you don't havo to. The crossing or to bo more exact, the place where the crossing ought to be on the west side of the intersection of Twelfth and P streets, is in a villain ous condition. Unless this is repaired before the next rain the street commis sioner's name will be the same as the crossing's, to-wit: MUD. One of our subscribers requests us to state that during the recent wet spell, his umbrella, which ho left alone for a short time in one of the build ings, was kidnaped. The name of the abductor is known. If the umbrella 1s not left at this office before Thurs day "noon, the person in question will bo exposed. The umbrella need not be marked with the name of the "finder," nor need he attempt an explanation. "What wo want is the umbrella. Honesty is the best policy. Prizes for games and things have a decidedly pernicious influence. At av ordinary card party some people lose all the social pleasure of the occasion, malco themselves exceedingly disagrne a'blo and got themselves cordially dis liked by every one else through their olToits to pull the first prlzo . There may "bs such a thing as play ing high five just for the sake of the game, but that is not the idea at a party. A person has to play so fast to got through by the ;ime tne first tablo does, that a violent case of brain fag 1s liable to result. If I bave to worlc 1 havo math, lessons to get. In your excitement you may bo so unfortunate as to discard a five. Then If your partner bo a player for revenue only he will quickly inform even ono prosont of the fact oeforc the average person can ejaculate ".lack Robinson" A good, though strenuous way to learn to play is to go ahoad according 'to the dictates of your conscience. If you make any mistakes you will bo 'told, it Avill bo impressed upon your memory in such a way that you can jievor forgot It. But your instructors will fall about 1)0 pur cent, in your oa ttinmtion. "What wo want is pure sport AFTER THE BALL. An interesting incident occurred In connection with the basket ball tourna ment, which shows the evils of playing for prl?es. The university teams arranged the tournament, bought two prizes and in vited The high school teams to take part in it. It 'didn' cost dem nodding," and there was a chance to win two prizes or two chances to win a prize. The Lincoln high school girls saw the samovar (Russian for tea pot) and saw that it was good. They put their dear little heads together and had a bright idea. They requested Miss to wait upon them at the school house to negotiate upon the subject of rules. They had borrowed a little mal let wherewith they knocked. They knocked on Bob Andresen for umpire, because he was a man they said. They knocked on Captain Miss Mill er (or should it be Miss Captain Mill er?) because she was a graduate and therefore a professional. How they reasoned this out is not yet clear. They knocked on Miss Emmons be cause she sometimes plays for gym. classes and is therefore a paid assist ant. They knocked on the gym. because the university teams were useder to it than they were. They knocked on several other points which are not recorded, but the games wero played just the same. WHAT'S THE MATTER WITH KANSAS. Since the Pi Phi girls had tne Wsckly all the schools are following the examplo set by the 'Varsity. Now the Minnesota girls have Drought out the prettiest edition that lias appeared this year, and the Normal girls are to bring out a scorching hot edition of the Oven. The Central high school girls had an edition and so it goes. Some schools havo only one good edition a year and that is the one issued hy the girls. Of course that is easily ex plained.
