Nebraska Papers Equal.
"The impersonal side of newspaper-
ing in Nebraska takes us far afield
and visualizes a transformation that
falls little short of magic. Even twenty-five
years ago Nebraska newspa
pers as a whole Were out-ranked by
the newspapers of the middle west
and east. Today Nebraska newspa
pers do not suffer by comparison, and
some respects they now excel.
Times have changed. The newspaper
man has changed. His public has
changed. Within the craft has grown
up a profession, and the School of
Journalism of the University of Ne
braska is the natural expression of
the professional aspiration that has
been stirring newspaperdom.
"What is journalism? It is life!
What is life? It is one thing today
and something else tomorrow.
"Journalism can not be summed up
nor set down, nor weighed out, ac
cording to fixed rules or tables of
weights and measures. It is of the
earth earthy, with a soul immortal,
and vision beyond the infinite. Yet
no magic key admits you to its holy
of holies. You must work your way
and gain admission as a reward for
work well done.
"Journalism is not judged alone
by brilliant writing. Nor by sensa
tional featuring. Nor by reportorial
cleverness.
"Journalism demands a compre
hension of details, a capacity for
work, and an everlasting persever
ance.
Editorial Page Important.
"The editorial page or column is
important and should not be neglect
ed, but after all it is incidental, no
more than a fraction of the day's
work. Make you editorial column
snappy. The average leading edito
rial requires no more than a half col
umn and rarely two-thirds. Brevity
spells 'open sesame' to the apprecia
tion of readers.
"The reporter's work, the clipping
and culling, the wire news and the
markets if a daily, the proper classi
fication and arrangement of the mass
of matter, and scrutinizing to the last
line and the final twist of the quoin
key, these are the things which make
a newspaper man, and offer the sur
est credentials for a front seat in
journalism.
"The news is the thing! The news
of your field is the major part Not
a part of the news, not tardy news,
not impersonal news, not scavenger
news, but news that is good and
clean, and kindly personal, and that
supplements the actual pulse-beats c
your community. Do this conscien
tiously and continually and the ap
preciation that will flow in upon you
will be the great Joy of your life.'
Accuracy Is Fundamental.
"But after all that has been said it
is still necessary that your aim shall
be accuracy. Verify your facts. One
slipshod mistake will discredit ninety
per cent of meritorious performance.
Beware of rumor, it is not news until
run to earth, and the chances are
that its name then will be 'hoax.'
"Reverting briefly to the editorial
phase of Journalism. Cultivate your
editorial column or columns. Do not
take your editorial writing too seri
ously. It Is important but it is not
all-important It is both an oppor
tunity and a responsibility; appreci
ate the one and faithfully discharge
the other. Do not be dull, nor didac
tic, nor disputatious. Do not feel the
weight of a cause or a universe rest
ing upon you. Do what you do, say
what you say, as a part of each day's
work, and do not worry 1 Do not de
ceive yourself that great transforma
tions will be wrought or Important
results achieved alone through the
power of your pen. Possibly the
thing you want most to do will be
easiest done through the medium f o
absolutely truthful news publicity,
and no comment whatsoever. In the
matter of delicate local questions, or
where the acta of your county board,
city council or board of education are
involved, the salutary thing is, to
print the news, and this vital public
ity will enable Tije public to do the
reit When Yiecessary, do not be

The red corpuscle in college life today is the
flashy red Conklin pen or pencil. In the
pocket, on the desk, dangling from ribbon or
chain it is the sign and symbol of the sanguine,
active mind. -
That Conklin pencil is a real word magazine
too. It shoots a lead 3X inches lor.g and car
ries over two feet of them. Fill it on your
birthday and forget it for a year. Fitted with
"the clip that can't slip" or the ring for ribbon
only $2.50. For those who don't see red
there is black, mahogany and all metals to
match any pen.
