A TRAGIC LOSS
The fatal shooting of Judge W. M.
Morninp: is a tragedy that has touched
all hearts. It has been years since a
district judge has been shot down in
the court room and is a rlic of the
frontier days, rather than of the or
ganized civilzation in which we live.
This is one of the dangers of public
life. A distinguished jurist killed by j
a deranged person is a sacrifice that
is to be deplored.
Judge Morning was for years a
leading member of the T.nraster bar
before he was elevated to the judge
ship. He was formerly president of
the Nebraska State Bar association.
He has taken great interest in the
court of domestic relations and the
juvenile court, and he devoted the
greater part of his time to this
kind of work.
He was one of the most fear
less judges in the state, and achieved
a national reputation in the seven
years he was on the bench. His
stinging indictments of those he be
lieve should be censored has gained
for him a wide reputation, and he
also was known for his kindness and
the humanitarian spirit with which
he handled many other cases.
It is -indeed a sad incident and
the community is the loser.
Student Opinion.
- SMOKINGC
To the Editor:
University men have a common
meeting ground for the discussion
of the joys and sorrows of campus
life; they have a stimulus for the
joys and a solace for the sorrows.
The west entrance of the Social
Science building is the meeting
ground; stimulus and solace are com
bined in the services of "Lady Nico
tine," so dubbed by our well-disposed
academic forebears.
What is in effect an unofficial
convocation is held every morning
between classes, Tobaco smoke
the air hazy, old and beloved pipes
shriek to the nostrils of passers-by
competitive chorus in which each
bowl sets forth its claim to strong
man honors, and cigarette ends fly
like bullets.
Women might be expected to have
become thoroughly accustomed by
this time, but, strangely enough, they
have not. A few of them have even
dared invade the rights of men-to
life, liberty and pursuit of hap
piness by complaining.
It is safe to assume thai .Nebras
ka women have, s a class, no fond
ness for tobbaco smoke. Inasmuch
also as rules -of etiquette grant wo
men the privilege of indicating their
are in contact with men, it would
seem that Nebraska men are subor
dinating courtesy to women to the
convenience.
Concerning the question of smok
ing itself . there are as many
conflicting opinions as there are
people who have thoughts on the
subject. No attempt is made here
to present such an opinion. But
the world is quite evenly divided
into two classes of people: those
who are courteous, and those who
are not.
Smoking in front of the Social
Science building is unquestionably
discourteous.
articles written abaut Russia become
quite bewildered if they attempt to
believe every statement that is made.
One person goes to Russia and comes
back with a tale of the great prog
ress and achievement being made in
that unsettled nation. Another per
son, equally well qualified to judge,
returns in a pessimistic mood and as
serts the country is in a state of chaos
on the road to rack and ruin.
The same thing is true in this
country. One editor, William Allen
White of Kansas, for instance, bit
terly denounces the college man and
woman of today and gives a black
description of college life. Another
editor comes out In ringing defense
, of the collegiate youth.
I To Woodrow Wilson and his asso
ciates and followers, the League of
I Nations seemed an ideal path to
w orld peace. Senator Lodge thought
it a menace t the best intersets of
this country. Warren Harding and
Secretary of State Hughes believed
a World Court would make for in
imore and the judges who awarded
jhim the prize for his peace plan feel
a combination of the League of Na
tions and the World Court will pre
jvent the nations from fighting,
j It's all in the angle from which
a person studies a situation. The
eauor in looKing nac-K over ms inree
years in college from an academic
standpoint, feels that he has wasted
his time. From another standpoint
that of friendships made, associa
tions, and contacts, his three Years,

looks at a problem.

Thinks Point System Democratic
To the Editor:
The point system as planned to be
carried out if it goes Into effect at
the University of Nebraska, is truly
the only real democratic function of
school regulation on the campus. It
not only distributes a sense of respon
sibility to more than a few strictly
chosen individuals but brings to a
greater level fellowship and yes, even
scholarship among fellow men. It
puts a responsibility into the hands of
one capable to handle that respon
sibility through intellectual intelli
gence, and not by having a luminous
political background wiping away all
shadows from the limelight playing
on "the man behind the reins."
It has been proved in the walks of
everyday life that corrupt politics en
danger many but satiate with glam
orous fame the heads of -i revered
few. Applying politics to school life,
how well it is known that politics play
lead in the ascention to the throne of
responsibility. This fact, I know, is
ready to be refuted by many. Surely
many; and who, pray may I inquire,
and who are the many? They are
the ones who have their shields woven
strongly with tee! threads of politics,
depending on the strength of their
political notoriety, achieved in various
modes, to pierce the realms of "height
and power." It is they who etch them
selves into the ranks or those "up
above," if you understand what 1
mean. It iB they who with their pol
itical glamour, whether or not it
gained corruptly, and it often is, At
tain achievments for wnleh others
could not atempt to reach; it is they
who opose the proposed system.
Those whose financial influence, at
times, or other means of influence,
gave them an "upper berth", are the
ones that do not sponsor a democratic
movement like the point 6ystem,
wherein it would truly be "the best
man for the place." So, dear reader
east your reflections heavily on so del
icate a point and do not overlook any
details. Of course, I do not expect
"everybody to agree with me, because
if I did the theme of this article would
contradicting itself and therefore
valueless.
Let me say that the democratic
point EyF-iH deserves the liighest
merit that 4.i.n be bestowed upon it
and should be adopted and supported
by etirbody loyal to Nebraska.

VIEWPOINTS AND ANGLES
Ohio State Lantern)
Karl Bicket, who is president of one
of the three great newsgathering or
ganizations in the United States, and
should know what he is talking about,
declared in a speech to the editors of
the Associated Ohio Dailies that con
ditions in Russia were just what the
observer wanted them to be.
Mr. Bickel uttered quite a funda
mental thought in this statement. His
observation applies to other things
just as appropriately as to present
day conditions in Russia.
