A FRESHMAN SCHEDULE. Tin suggestion presented by tlic Daily Nebraskun recently to liave a regular football schedule for the fresh nan football team should meet with the heartiest approval of University of Nebraska students. In the fresh man team the University relies entire ly for its future teams and the fii'.u year men should be given every chance to improve their football tact ics. The better freshman team there is, the better the next year's varsity squad will be. In all of the high schools of the state where there are enough foot ball and basketball candidates to war rant more than one team, the second team is given a schedule of games with teams of its class. Many of these Ramos are played as preliminaries to the bigger games but many are with teams from small schools and the second stringers take a trip while the first team battles either on home or foreign ground. A schedule for the University of Ne braska freshman squad could be so arranged as to have one or two con tests played as preliminaries to big games possible with the freshman squad from the varsity opponents' echol. Then there could be several games with teams from the many smaller colleges in the state and pos sibly the University of Nebraska freshman might be able to get a rat ing in the state conference. Such a schedule would give to thn first year men a further incentive to work hard. And the harder the fresh men work, the harder the varsity must work and a better football team will result. The constant drubbings which the freshmen take from the varsity are enough to entitle the fresh men to reward in the nature of a football schedule. Hut holes can servo a better pur pose. There In a utory going the round ol a hole that produced results. In a iniall town there was a new building being tretted. Acroi.s the street there was a vacant lot. At tho same time as the filial touches were being put on Hie building, a group of men appeared on tho vacant lot and began to di a hole. They dug for several days with out uttering u sound. Queries of pas sc. by who asked what the purpose of the l"!e was, failed to produce re suits. The dinners responded with very unsatisfactory answers. The mor l 'icv duff the more people watched them. Finally the building across th si rift w;i8 finished. When the final ti uches had been nlace.l on it, th 'Jiggers acro.w the street laid (low their spades and went home. The nex ('ay the following sign appeared a I he bottom of the hole. "The Majostl Theater will Open in the IJullding Across the Street for Regular Evening I'erfornianccH. Tomorrow night nt S O'clock. No other sign appeared anywhere in the neighborhood, or for that, mat ter In tho town. Hut long before the lime for the opening of the doors arrived, the sidewalk in front of the theater was Jammed with people. The hole with tho ultimate sign at the bottom was the only phive where an announcement had been made. Yet tho curiosity of human beings had l;ien such that a sign in the bottom ol' the hole had brought more than the (l f-ired results. Contemporary Opinion (Michigan Daily.) YOUTHFUL PRODIGIES. CORNHUSKER DEMOCRACY. Democracy, that thing which means no much but which is hard to explain, is by no means lacking in the Husker school. Every student in Nebraska University stands on a par with every other student there are no class distinctions of any kind. No matter whether the boy be rich or poor, students at the Cornhusker school cannot tell from his clothes what his financial status may be. His father may be worth a million but he may appear on the University camp us wearing corduroy trousers vnd a leather vest. And the best part of it is that his clothes have no bearing on his social status among his fellows. On the campus the democratic spirit of the institution should further re veal itself by everyone greeting every one else he meet? on the campus. whether or not he knows them by nsme, he has seen them, and seeing is enough to give a Cornhusker a speaking acquaintance with his fellow students. Some say that one has no right to speak to another person unless he has been properly introduced. But every student on the Husked campus is a Cornhusker and on equal terms with everyone else. He is not to be blamed if he cannot remember every name that he hears. That is no rea son why he should pass up a familiar eva. Last year owing to the financial stringency, the only company to go on face without a cherry "hello." It all goes to make a more democrat ic University of Nebraska. HOLES AND CURIOSITY. Holes are peculiar creatures. No matter what their nature or where their location, they create in the hu man being a desire to investigato their character and purpose. Holes In trousers, stockings or shirts always exoite the Interest of anyone who happens to be a witness to them before the possessor can discover his "error" and correct IL A cut appears in the rotogravure section of a Sunday paper to tJ;e ef- iect tht "Henry Jones is the youngest freshman ever to enter Siwash univer sity." Four years later another cut npp.'T.rs saying that "Henry Jones Is the youngest student ever to graduate I'r '.'ii Siwash university," and the bios Niphy of a youthful prodigy is wi'ttai '.ceit fcr the death notice which men tions this fact under a mediuni pJzea head in a local newspaper. Such is the case In the majority of such p e-nomenons. It is a natural, though regrettable fact that most precious youngsters fail to attain eminence. The prodigy s very youth, which would seem io give him a great advantage over Ins fel low, is his worst handicap. lie lacks experience, knowledge of men, phy sical growth. Often his brilliance is mere receptivity he cannot apply his knowledge to the solution of pa1 ti tular problems. Socially he is at a i if ad vantage, for he is too young to iei'1'y a member of his ov;' genera ti..u. Psychologists are continually adco eating that exceptional children be given exceptional training, that their extraordinary abilities be cultivated and directed. This is a laudable ef fort to make the best use of such unusual capacities, but it may well be doubted that the effort will suc ceed unless some provision is made for their entrance into, the more ser ious activities of life at a mature age It seems the part of wisdom to allow these individuals the same time to develop their faculties that is al lowed the average person, and lot them acquire more knowledge in that length of time and develop them selves more fully. In the meantime it would be well to collect figures on the accomplishr ments of the exceptional student in the outside world in order to have a ?clid basis for educating the prodigy in the most efficient manner, and for determining if he is worthy of special e'fort.
