Tho night boforo Christmas tho government thermomotor registered 4 degrees bolow zoro. This is tho cold est fio far this soason. It had snow ed a littlo and tho ground waB whlto. Christmas morning was not so cold and tho sun ahono bright. It was all ono could wish for Christmas wcathor and with mild tomporaturo, tho bright sunshlno and tho ground covorod with snow, North Tlatto certninally had an Ideal ChrlBtmas day. Cnllforn .ians please notice V Tho prosonco of so many young men at tho Chamber ot Commerce banquet last night was spoken of by sovoral. At tho same tlmo tho ab sence of 'somo of tho men who hnv.j long carried- tho burdqu was remark ed. Wo missed T.C. Patterson, John Ilallllgan, J. G. Dopier, Dr. McCabo, A. F. Stroit., W. W. Blrgo, W. T. Wilcox, and a number of others. It is a hopeful sign when tho young mon got into tflo gamo but we hato to soe tho older mon drop out and tholr counsel will bo greatly missed. Tho odltor of Tho Trlbuno approves of the vocational night school and nil it stands for. Wo lmvo studied tho idoa for u number of years and dur lng that tlmo wo wore looking for ward to Uio tlmo when North Piatt would havo ono, Wo are, assured by Sporlntondont Llttol that a way linn boon found so, that It will not add ,to tho tax burden of tho community. Tho mon and womon of North Platto are onrolllng In numbers which scorn to guarantoo its succoss. Tho Trlbuno is pleased to add Its word of encour agement and hope that It wlll prove the succoss which similar schools line boon In othor placos. and Bomo tho unlvorslty. Each oi thoso is necessary nnd must bd main tained. Tho common school Is for everybody; tho high school for all who will and can nttond and tho unl vorslty trains our leaders. Wo cannot do without any of thorn. But onough. monoy could bo saved to cut tho edu cational costs In two, If reforms were made which would not Impair tho quality of tho Instruction. Sup pose a high standard of scholarship woro maintained at tho Unlvorslty of Nobraska and tho enrollment limit ed to thoso who Avoro earnestly seek ing on education and woro willing to work night and day to get It. Wo would havo a fow of tho hlg buildings on that campus for rent and about half tho professors out of a job. But us long as wo niuke tho Unlvorslty n j plac.0 whore thoso aro allowed, to ' attend who aim to "get' by" just so thoy have a good time, tho cost will mount higher and hlghor. Tho Unlvor slty authorities arc not to blame. Thoy aro lead to bollovo that tholr showing with tho pcoplo consists in announcing "a greater qnrollmont than over boforo." Thoy aro striving to get tho. students to work and' are having somo success. But tho great mass of taxpayers aro not demanding seriousness of purpose nnd dotormln -i c' on tho part of tho stu dbnts and tho Unlvorslty authorities stand ulono in tholr efforts. Wo must not cripple our stnto university and It Is tod much to think that tho reform mentioned can ho accomplished soon but wo need not complain If wo havo to pay tho prlco. :o: W. E.
