The Kansas City Star of May 23,
said in regard to the installation of a
chapter of Delta Delta Delta at Mis
souri University:
"Probably the most pretentious in
stallation ceremonies by a sorority
entering Missouri University in the
last three years was the series of
entertainments given by the group of
girls receiving Delta XI charter in
the Delta Delta Delta national soror
ity. The society was founded at Bos
ton University on Thanksgiving Eve,
1SSS. The girls of the new chapter
opened this week with a reception to
the men of the university at the chap
ter house last Sunday. They gave a
buffet supper and a dance at the Vir
ginia Tea Room Monday evening. The
hall was decorated in Tri-Delt motifs,
the pansy being the sorority flower,
the crescent and stars being1 the em
blems and badge of the society, and
the colors of the society, gold, silver
and blue."
Six girls were pledged to four of the
sororities Saturday on the last pledge
day of the season. The list is as fol
lows:
Alpha Omicron Pi Helen Ayres,
David City.
AlDha Xi Delta Helen Sorenson,
Omaha: Euphrosyne Planck, Madison;
Edith Yungblut, Lincoln.
Delta Delta Delta Gladys Klocke,
Dodge.
Delta Gamma Betty Walker, Doug

"In this country public opinion is
only less mighty than omnipotence.
It creates and amends constitutions;
it makes laws and determines whether
or not they shall be enforced; It
shapes national policies, domestic and
foreign, and the press educates and
sways public opinion." Strong's
"Challenge of the City."
The Nebraskan and Awgwan have
several times this year alluded to the
establishment of a 6chool or courses
in Journalism in the University. There
is an urgent need for this very thing.
Editors are moulders of public opin
ion. Hundreds of people who never
have had the advantages of higher
education have received a great share
of their knowledge from the news
papers. Editors make a considerable
contribution to the public intelligence.
Other professions, such as medicine.
law, engineering and pharmacy have
long ago learned that the college edu
cation is much superior to the former
office or shop apprenticeship. Should
the editor, considering his influence,
be less trained? The editors of Ne
braska in their recent convention
passed a resolution favoring the estab
lishment of a school of journalism at
the University. Should not the ex
pression of 600 editors be considered
seriously?
We have evidence of journalistic
efforts in the Nebraskan and Awgwan
and such departmental publications as
The Blue Print, Forestry Annual,
Pharmacy Annual, Agriculture. Let
the Board of Regents at least estab
lish a department of journalism in the
College of Arts and Sciences. This in
time can be expanded into a school
if the number of students in the course
(demands it.
Is no better way for the United States
tn build no an efficient reserve ot
nfflcprs Dossessing superior mental
qualifications than by compulsory
military drill in all state univerBiue.
in rase of war the United States would
be most advantageously placed to
draw upon this reserve to officer a
volunteer army. From a patriotic
noint ofl view I . can not see how any
one can be so prejudicial against mili
tary training.
Aeain it is a known fact that mili
tary training develops in the man that
obedience, subordination and attentive-
ness wheh is so important in tne me
of every man, whether renowned or
unknown. And therefore m conclu
sion it must be said that one who is
so hostile to military drill can hardly
nnRRARs nv deen feeling for the future
of his country and holds In himself
only bis own interests.

Military Training
j The subject of military training has
been the subject of much apprehen
sion on the part of a minority oi stu
dents whom I think have been in
fluenced agaisnt militarism by an
tagonistic influences and have not
given the matter serious consideration.
In the first place there is a deeper
reason why military drill should be
made a part of the course of every
man in the1 University and likewise In
every other college and university in
the country, and that is from the
standpoint of national defense. There

Editor Daily Nebraskan:
A request is being made of ail
Seniors to pay their Individual share
of the assessment which is partly for
the purpose of clearing up the class
debt which we are told amounts to
about $75.00. When such a request Is
made the parties interested have a
righf to investigate and criticise the
artinns of the students in charge of
class affairs, especially those dealing
with finances. The following facts are
hereby made public at the request of
several Seniors and are not intended
ns either a criticism of the manner of
financing the Senior play nor pub
lished for the purpose of reflecting
unon the integrity or good character
of any one, the readers can draw their
own conclusions.
Last year the Senior invitation com
mittee turned in to the class treasury
a profit of $41.00; this year the chair
man of the committee has made the
statement that there will be a profit
of approximately $12.00. Because of
the limited time before the last issue
of the Daily Nebraskan for the pur
pose of this article, iz is necessary
and fair that the facts be set forth at
once and also as a result it is neces
sary to compare figures with those of
last year on the basis of last year's
profit. Negotiations for the purchase
of invitations last year may be of in
terest. There are two firms in this country
who specialize 1n graduation invita
tions, the Wright and Elliot com
panies, both of Philadelphia; both
