The first venture in the way of a
ftudent publication in the University
of Nebraska was the Hesperian. The
University opened its doors Septem
ber, 1871. The very next year an
enterprising young man feeling the
need of a student paper, bought some
type and other materials and brought
(he first issue of the Hesperian. Dur
ing its first year this ancestor of the
Daily Nebraskan was a four-page
monthly.
The next year our present Professor
Howard, head of the department of
Political Science and Sociology, then a
mere sophomore, was selected as the
editor-in-chief. He purchased the
previous editor's equipment and en
larged it at his own expense, being
reimbursed later by the regents. The
paper was reorganized when Mr. How
ard took hold of it and emerged under
his guidance as an eight-page monthly.
It contained several columns of news
items, a page of unsignpd editorials,
and a number of essays and other con
tributions from the intellectuals of that
day.
Its relative importance can be bet
ter appreciated when one remembers
that the entire enrollment of the Uni-
ersity at that time was not as large
as some of Professor Howard's pres
ent classes. In the early years of the
University no fraternities or sorori
ties nor other social organizations ex
isted. The literary societies, the de
bating clubs and the paper were the
big features of school life. The state
ment as made by Professor Howard,
can then be readily believed, when he
Fays that the work on the Hesperian
was one of the most valuable parts of
his University life.

VI. Of the Drama
The gods, who in destructive mood
were used
To make men mad before their deaths,
delight
In this sad spectacle, the woeful plight
Of Drama, unrestrained and yet
abused.
The sport of any dabster, who to write
Finds license in a keen desire to hear
His Muse clink silver in his listening
ear.
The playwright works his ill, and is
excused;
The actors' turn is next; with all their
might
They pose and posture, rant and rave
and howl,
Whereat the waiting public madly
cheer,
While dozing in the circle sits the owl
Of Criticism. High Olympus nods, j
There echoes now Ihe laughter of the
gods.
