Herbert |. Myers Honored.

According to the Nebraska
State Journal of March ?, Her
bert @. Myers, of Broken Bow,
now attending the State Uni
versity at Lincoln, has been ell
ected editor-in chief of the Corn
huskcr, the new annual publica-
ton of the University. The Corn
husker will hereafter be publish
ed by the Junior and Senior class
es jointly. 1t is a consolidation
of what has previously been three
class books, comprising the Som
brero, the Senior Annual and the
Annual of the College of Law.
Mr.. Myers will be the first ed
itor of the book. The first issue
will appear in April 1907. 1t will
be book Of about four to five
hundred pages and will contain
the pictures and short write-ups
of all members of the Junior and
Senior classes next year. Also
Jokes" on the students and fac
ulty and general information
concerning the University organ
izations.
The plan for the publication
of the book provided that the
president of the Junior class
should nominate the editor and
the nomination to become valid
had to be ratified by a majority
vote of the Junior class. Mr..
Myers was, therefore, not in po-
sition to be nominated since he is
now president of that class.
However, the class seemed de-
tcrmined that he should edit the
first issue of the book and passed
resolution compelling him to
nominate himself for the position
and allow his own name to be
voted on by the class along with
that of his nominee. AS result
Of this action he was elected ed
itor by a two-thirds majority.

One of the Food Guards Best Trips
 Ever.
 The Second company, Governors Foot Guard, arrived home from Boston at ' o'clock Saturday evening. Their three days taunt in Boston and over the old battlegrounds in Lexington and Con cord, they declared, was one of the most enjoyable trips they have taken. The Ancients and Honorables, who enter tained them at Faneuil hall Thursday night, provided such entertainment that the bonds of friendship have been weld ed inseparably together.
 One of the features of the march from Lexington to Concord on Friday was the assembly of the school children of Concord. They turned out along the road | in a double column, and as the redcoats marched by they waved flags and cheered. The appearance of the Foot Guard with their bright uniforms, a correct copy of that worn by the fa- nous Coldstream Guard, one of King Edwards crack battalions, excited nc little interest.
 Assistant Signal Sergeant Edward Atwater who is an honorary member of the Foot Guard band, led the band in playing the Second Regiment March at the banquet in the Somerset Friday night.
 Saturday morning there was no duty for the soldiers, and so they boarded 'rubberneck" wagons and went sight. seeing.
