Golden Uule It,
Von Upnerclassmcii.
With so many charming excur
sions along1 the byways of the
primrose path revealing- them
selves to susceptible neophytes, it's
just as well that some old hand
stick in a plug: for the rockier
straight and narrow. Sophomores
already are feeling, called upon to
educate the youngsters of the year,
to display their own newly won
service stripes. Juniors take care
to drop casual hints of the vast
worldlincss mantling their shoul
ders. Seniors, soured and cynical,
are full of "Nichcvo's" for the
morrow. But I'm telling you mugs
to lay oif.
In the first place, pnmrosing
has hundreds of connotations to
freshmen long forgotten to up
per classmen. Most first year
students feel a definite struggle
with their consciences when they
skip their first class, take their
first quiz unprepared, bull their
first lab instructor, doublerross
their first double date, get their
first down slip, wreck their first
fraternity brother's car, neglect
to purchase their first text, coke
away their first morning. Cal
lous upper classers have all too
soon accepted such deviations
from principles as natural and
smart.
Save Non-Sinners.
The young souls vc are cam-
signing 10 save irom acme col-
legeiatitis are not those belonging
to the boyish faced minors with a

he world firm under the feet of
the kids wiio by background and
conviction have ideals.
There s nothing on earth more
vulnerable to attack from every
conceivable vantage point than a
belief. It's something you feel,
don't reason. What makes things 1
absolutely right or absolutely .
wrong to high schoolers comprises ;
strong feeling but little logic. So ,
when some enlightening realist !
lays a childhood faith barefaced ;
with a demand for whys am j
wherefores, he's hitting an almost
indefensible section of youth's
anatomy.
Which is sporting enough, I
guess; some guys bash up little
babies, too.
Easy on the Educating.
No one wants to artificially re
tain a college age, almost adult,
young person's morality at child
hood s blind believing stage. Stag- j
nation at that point is nearly as j
fatal to emotional maturity as a
sharp swing to belieflessness. But '
kkis can oe neipea to grow into i
mcir roie oi grownups ny simply ;
letting nature take its course.;
Education in the more or less lib- j
eral extracurricular arts takes
more easilv when it is forced down I
sensitive throats piping hot
Windpipe scarers often appear
in the guise of more or less well
meaning fraternity brothers, or
helping hand sorority sisters.
Some of the boys may decide
that a pledge is too green on
the oldest question in the world,,
and take it upon themselves to
educate him in commercialized
fashion. Or some of the girls
may come to the conclusion that
a new sister is not suffiicently
smooth, and undertake to make
her over. Net result, in cither
case, may be a permanent and
unhealthful complex. And a
jaded, bitter outlook.
So go easy, you reformers.
Whatever your intentions, hesitate
before you play God to a trusting
froshie. Remember the days of
your own youth and try a little
golden rule stuff. Do not to others
as ye were done urito.

Poliomyelitis Threat
The agricultural college faculty
student reception, set for Satur
day, Sept. 25, has been postponed,
according to announcement of the
social committee, in charge of the

The decision was reached upon the
advice of Dr. E. T. Hohbs of the
city health department, who rec
ommends that all unnecessary

Dr. Earl H. Bell has so much
specimen material from his several
summers' work that he de.es.i't
know what he is going to do with
it. The yield at Lynch. Neb. last
summer brought in an enormous
amount of bone and artifact
treasures, leaving store rooms and
laboratories Jammed with boxes
and bundles. The problem has
become more acute now with the
addition of the 1937 collection
taken from various nites near Ver

Group of 65 Prospective
Reporters Seek Work
On Campus Daily.
Sixty-five prospective reporters
appeared at the Daily Nebraskan
office yesterday afternoon to hear
their first instructions on news
getting from the managing editors,
Willard Burney and Helen Pascoe.
A larger number of new re
porters than has attended the ini
tial meetings in previous years
found the rag office too crowded
for their group, and made it neces
sary for them to be ushered up
stairs in the building to a large
classroom.
For practice in taking down
news stories and writing them, the
reporters were given practice
stories and these were later cor
rected for them by the managing
and news editors and suggestions
made. Those who showed thc most
ability were given stories to write
for the Nebraskan since the large
number of reporters present made
it impossible for all to have a try.
Reporters were asked to leave
their names, what experience on
school, weekly or daily papers they
had had, and the type of writing
which they preferred. Reporters
may come to the office for assign
ments this week and try out the
different types of news. Tempo
rary beats will be assigned follow
ing another meeting next Saturday
afternoon.

zine by .John Krskino. The Nebraskan feels that 1 he' figures

Krskine's thesis is that colleges are failing in education be
cause (if their lieyleet, of character biiildint:. The 1 'niversit y e.f
Nebraska sponsors and cneoiira'jes a church program to make
tip this deficit with more vior than most schools. Our survey
seems in show that, the pro" nun is failing.
The remedy suggested by the noted educator in Liberty
is that of more emphasis upon ethics in ihe college curriculum,
lie says in part : "I Have spoken of religious services and sports
because ihe American eolleye has relied on ihem as yood in
fluences for character and morals. But why hasn't 1 he "curricu
lum attended adequately to character training;:' Especially in
modern times, when such subjects have become popular as so
ciology, economies, polities, with attention to labor problems,
working- hours, living- conditions.' Why shouldn't such courses
be the natural opportunities for training the young to feel and
think ethically ?"
llo laments the fact that the moral considerations in these
subjects have been pared to the bone to make pure sciences. He
notes lhat even the purest of the pure sciences rest upon ethics.
His conclusion is that education without attention to character
is a folly and a racket.
