The condition is quite natural and
quite laudable. For the student
who is disgusted boffins to take
stock of what he has accomplished.
Often he finds it is little. But he
inquires into his reasons for going
to college and tries to understand
just what his goal is.
Such thought is excellent, for by
it the student may, if he stays in
school, profit immensely Jn wiser
selection of courses to work toward
his goal. Ho also thinks over the
courses he has taken and begins to
grasp their relation to one another
and to his life. He realizes that
after all, he has accomplished some
thing and that by continuing he
will accomplish more.
We recommend that all students
become as disgusted with college as
possible at the end of the sophomore
year. They will profit greatly
thereby.
THE DECEASED
One of the outstanding jokes on
the campus is the Student Council.
It is a body which is solemnly elect
ed each year and which solemnly
meets and elects a president. Its
activities then end until the presi
dent begins to feel pricks of consci
ence and calls a meeting for no
good reason at all except that he
feels the body should meet some
time. The members gravely consid
er various unimportant matters and
refer them to 3omeone. If. by any
chance, they are of the slightest im
portance, the Council does nothing
because someone might object. Such
is the glorious record of the Coun
cil. There are two reasons for this
defunct state: first, the students who J
are members are interested only in
" being elected so that they may add
another activity to their list of col
legiate trophies, and, second, the
constitution of the Council, while it
reads well, means little or nothing.
Under the constitution the purpose
of the Council shall be "the relating
of all extra-curricular activities to
one another and to the University as
a whole; the creation of such other
expressions of student life as shall
supplement those already establish
ed; the direction of such other mat
ters of student interest as shall btj
initiated by or referred to the Stu
dent Council."
Two other duties complete the
Council's burde.i to call mass meet
ings and to supervise elections.
Truly, here is a little for the Coun
cil to do; but the Council does not
even do that. It is dead yes, as
dead as the well known dodo but it
continues to- go through the formal
ity of electing new members each
year.
Perhaps the Council might dis
cover some activities for its august
attention by interpretating liberally
the vague language of the constitu
tion. But it will not Unless the
constitution tells the Council ex
actly what it can and must do it
will continue in its cataleptic state.
The continuation of the Council
may add to the campus humr, but
it is really a rather sorry
Either the Council should have
something to do or it should be abolished.

one of intolerance and barbarism.
We are not living in an era in which
minorities are crushed by force. Mi
norities that allow themselves to be
erased are unhealthy; they lack in
dependence. The world has many of these mi
norities. Some will never extermi
nate minorities that have real of
them thrive. Others are silent, await
ing for the time when they, too, may
thrive. But force backbones.

Ten Years Ago
DR. BUTLER ERRS
(Syracuse Daily Orange)
"This is an intolerant and barbaric
era, which hounds men for their con
victions and crushes minorities by
force." From address of President
Nicholas Murray Butler of Colum
bia University to annual Newman
club convention.
Dr. Butler, we fear, has beaome
too much of a pessimist. His conclu
sion apparently reveals that the Col
umbia executive has seen so much
of blue laws, -so much of censorship,
so much of suppression, that he has
been led to believe that there is noth
ing else but intolerance in this grow
ing land of ours.
True, one does not have to go far
to find intolerance. Every commun
ity in the world possesses it in some
degree. It is only natural; where-
ever there are liberals, there are
bound to be conservatives, and so
the other way around. No Utopia
exists either for liberals or conser
vatives. Degrees of liberalism vary. What
is considered even radical in the
United States may be regarded as
ultra-conservative in some other part
of the sphere, Europe, for example.
But that is because the Old World
is the Old Worid and that the
thoughts the New World today cher
ishes were long ago digested by the
Old World. Of course, there are in
this country today a number of think
ers whose minds are of the same
stuff as those across the seas; these
are different, and they do not repre
sent the great majority.
Obviously, many institutions are
founded on a conservative basis. A
safe and sane policy is the most ad
visable in establishing the policy of
the administration of these entities.
After all, there is a far greater
chance of going wrong on the adop
tion of a liberal policy than there is
in the acceptance of a conservative
policy; at least that is the case today.
The time may come when more lib
eral stands may be assumed; in many
instances wisdom advises a take-it-easy
plan.
So there is little occasion for Dr.
Butler's education. The age is not
The Nebraska State Historical
Society celebrated its annual ban
quet at the Lincoln Hotel. Ap
proximately two hundred well-known
citizens and friends attended. The
banquet was preceeded by a recep
tion which enabled friends to get
together and recall the days gone
by.
The pre-medics held a meeting and
listened to :.n illustrated lecture on
"Advantages of the Medical Man in
the East" This was followed by
an oyster stew and a talk by Dr.
F. M. Patton on the "Necessity of
Specialization in Modern Medicine."
The Nebraska Legislature Refer
ence Bureau was made a state de
partment, placed by legislative act
under the Board of Regents of the
University. The purpose was to
carry on research in subjects of
special public interest."

Twenty Years Ago
The Commons of the University
was the name given to the newly
organized Junior Club, which was
an organization in the barb associ
ation. Its purpose was closer fel
lowship and equitable distribution
of college honors. Since it was so
democratic, members of the other
organizations or fraternities were
eligible to the Common member
ship.
The management of the Univer
sity Band decided to give a concert
at the Oliver theater to raise funds
for the remainder of their pledge
to the Temple fund.
The regents required that candi
dates for all athletic teams pass a
satisfactory physical examination be
fore taking part in all atheletic contests.

The winner of this tournament was
to have possession of the girls' pen
nant for one year.
A musical was planned at the
home of Miss Pound to raise money
to defray the expenses of Nebraska
delegates to the Nashville Conven
tion. This was under the auspices
