L.oys n their teeng The receDtion accorded us at me metropolis was far beyond the high est expectations of the most optimis tic. Not. only did the city open its eates to us without reserve, but a THE PLACE OF PERSONALITY IN EDUCATION (By Dean R. Leland) "Tom Brown's School Days at Rug by," and its sequel, "Tom Brown at Oxford," from a boy's point of view, are among the best books ever writ ten. The descriptions of football, cricket "fagging" and student's pranks make these books very interesting to I happened to pick up a copy of "Tom Brown s School Days at Rugby" recently and found In it more than the daily inci dents of English school life. To trace the growth of Tom Brown, Harry East bring shame or sorrow on the dear folks at home." This is an appeal to honor and truth through the vital touch of the deepest and best human relationships, Tom's heart responded and the line chivalry latent in him expressed itself in word and deed. This describes an important influence in education and the best teachers that we ever have are fathers and mothers and the Thomas Arnolds who touch life in its deepest places. These who value the power of personality in the process of education will appreciate these clos ing words of "Tom Brown's School Days at Rugby." "It is only through our mysterious human relationships, through the love, tenderness, purity of mothers and sisters, through the strength, courage' and wisdom of fath ers and brothers and teachers that we come to the knowledge of , Him in whom alone the love, tenderness, purity, strength and wisdom of all these dwell torever in perfect iuu- ness. The close of the year or the end of course of study is a good time to say a word of appreciation to those who have meant much to us in our education. This Is the least that can be done toward paving the debt or gratitude which every student owes to those in the unfversity and at home who have given their life to make edu cation possible and to make it vital and of permanent value. BRIEF BITS OF NEWS great many of its business men and ld &n the rfiSt toward character and women devoted the day to our enter tainment, at a great personal sacrifice. Did the University do its part? We must answer in the negative. The rain was not a sufficient detriment to take all the blame for the smallness of the crowd. Fifteen hundred would have been only a fair showing on such an occasion. It is to be hoped that if the occasion ever arises in the future the students will more properly demon strate their school spirit. OMAHA A BOOSTER Omaha's attitude toward the Univer sity has always been the most altruis- ShaU T gQ mt0 the gort of temptatlonB he will meet with? Shall I tell him manhood under Thomas Arnold the determining factor is a study in suc cessful education. Students often burst Into reckless ness and impiety the minute they feel that advice is being poured upon them by parents and teachers. Squire Brown must have known this trait in young people. Listen to his brief words to Tom the night before he started for Rugby. The father had said to him self, "I won't tell him to read his Bible and love and serve God; for if he doesn't do that for his mother's sake and teaching he won't for mine, tic. A fair example of this can be seen in the manner in which her news papers have always been anxious to do their part in boosting the schooL They do not seek for scandal that will make a sensational story, and give the people of the state a wrong impres sion as to what the students are doing. They publish that which is proper news, and not that which tends to be sensational without having any real news value. Furthermore, they are always anxious to publish all the news cf the University, and not merely an occasional formal notice. FORUM Omaha, Nebr., May 13, 1916. Editor Daily Nebraskan, Lincoln, Nebr. Dear Sir: On Tuesday, May 2nd, a letter was published in the "Daily Nebraskan" over my signature, in regard to Greek letter societies and other phases of University life. I should like to have this opportun ity of stating that the letter was not to mind his work and make a good scholar? But he isn't sent to school for that, at any rate, not that mainly. If he will only turn out a brave, truth telling Englishman and a gentleman and a Christian, that's all I want Very good advice, but Squire Brown did not say this. He said in a very natural tone, "Now, Tom, my boy, re member you are going at your own re quest to be chucked into this great school like a young bear with all your troubles before you. If schools are what they were in my day you'll see a great many black-guard things done and hear a deal of foul bad talk. But never fear. You tell the truth. Keep a brave and kind heart and never lis ten to or say anything you would not have your mother or sister hear and you will never feel ashamed to come back home or we to see you." "Tom kept thinking of his father's last words and he look with which they were spoken and he resolved that come what might he would never Any Fraternity Sorority or Society Emblem can be fur nished on any article in our stock.

Then ragtime music was started by a tuneful colored or chestra, and the auditorium floor was cleared for an informal dance. It was a most happy day. E. V. Parrish, who first conceived the Idea and who planned it throughout, was the busiest man in Omaha, receiving the students and taking care of them. He was ably assisted, however, by a score or more of alumni, headed by Dean I. S. Cutter of the medical col lege,, president of the Alumni asso ciation. Vincent Haskall, W. C.
