O one who ruo tho slightest atton
lion lu inn coii'iiraiion in iiiu
twenty-fifth anniversary of tho
Ubljshtnent 'fif the University of No-
broskR, which wus ho conspicuously sue
cetaful, could huvo failed to be Impress
ml with the strong ticrKonality and won ,
derful vigor, Intellectual and physical,
of tho chancellor. HIh influence wbb
felt in every exercise or foaturo of the
varied program, and all day Thursday
and Friday Chancellor CauHeld wan tho
vibrant axle on which over) thing
turned. ,
1
Chancellor Cantield has not escaped
criticism. No man who obeys Longfcl-
lows injunction and Becks to escapo
fmm the ranks of dumb, driven cattle,
L jj),rD
free from the shafts of enmity, or
and thojols"bncd darts that are
thrown nrornbJuuously by little people.
Men altjras want a leader; b(ut when tho
leader appears cavil must needs 'come
also. I do not mean to infer (hat Chan.
cellor Can Hold has provoked any serious
l opposition, or that thoro is any consider-
I ablo fault lindlug with his dourso. Ho
' is a men of ideas and activity, and since
he came to Lincoln lie has proceeded to
' put his ideas into practice, fearlessly
PUid not always with tho greatest regard
Iftror conventional precedents. Ho has in-
Vfused a wonderful energy into every do
W partment of tho university, and has seen
r a his labor bear fruit.
I A progressive, aggressive man, ho has
hitched' his wagon to a high star, and
it would be very surprising indeed if ho
had escaped criticism. Tho, man who
goes through life and escapes criticism
jfdght much more profitably have re
4inained unborn. Ho is of no uso in tho
mworld. Thoro aro two kinds of criticism,
honest and dishonest. Ono is tho ingen
ious expression of an intelligent, hon
est opinion, and the other is really no
Wwriticism Hi al). Jt is merely the ,vehi
Ale for the trunsmission of spiteful and
Ell-temjiored Ideas coming from dwarfed
p minds.
if
Jl "Tho chancellor puts himself forward,
3 a great deal," is a remark , sometimes
I heard. Ho does. What of it? Is he to
' secrete himsclMn some obscure cloister
of tho univorsity,HfnJlowing the example
of too many educators! and exhibit him
self before the publiogaze at very infre
quent intervals as an oGject! of curios
ity? Is ho to shut himself .out of Jhe
world, and shut the world out of tho
university, and conduct the institution
on monastic lines? Is ho to allow him
self to be disqualified for his important
poeitlou.bfburylng himself in tho cob
webs and dust of his sanctum, and grad
ually become encrusted with ancient
V forms and filled with ohsoletp ideas? Or
ho to moasuro up to something liko
1 the idea of tho professorial office which
I Professor Howard advanced in his splen
did address last Thursday ovoning, and,
teing and remaining a man of learning
W" ami on educatcr, roach out and come in
contact wan xne wonu anu us practical
ities, and keep Btep with its various pro
gressive movements?
People complain sometimes of the
lack of practicability in the present sys
tem of college and university education,
and no doubt justly. One reason for
the condition that makes such a com
plaint justifiable is tho fact that in so
many instances college professors are
nothing more nor less than book worms
alive to the nicities of differential cal
culus, or tho hypotheses of philosophy,
or tho fecundity of philology, or tho
tninutia) of ancient history, but dead
to the living, moving, progressive things
of the world of to-day. Their ideas go
backward rathor than forward, and im
bibing none of the juico that Hows ho
freely in the current of active, real life,
they dry up and ehrivel away among their
dusty tomes and worn;put apparatus.
Conjuro up in your mlrid's eye thov-pro-fessorial
type, and you will see a blood
less, shriveled, stoop shouldered person
with lack lustro eye. This is the type
preBenteu on the stage, and it corres
ponds with more or loss proprioty to the
general idea of what the professor real
ly is.
That Chancellor Canfiold has bo effec
tively steered away fmm the old time
traditions is highly commendable. It is
by so doimr that he has achieved sue-
jess. He has indeed put himself. for
ward. He as become since his resi
dence in Nebraska, a Nebraskan. Ho
haa mingled with men, and ho is a man
amongjmeni Yes,, he has put himself
forward), if you like to express it that
way, but who can say that ho has over
had any other idoa than the broadening
'of his own mind, tho enhancement of his
JVn usefulness, and coirespondingly.the
y, 'elopmont of tho University of No
Kr ska, to which he has thoroughly cou
secrated himself?
Tho chancellor is a scholarly man I
think no one will question his Intel-
f,'lectus ospabllityj'and tyot-ho' is singu
larly successful in avoiding tlie pedagogic
characteristics that wo are so accus
tomed to seeing. He is more liko bis
feljow men than any professor I know.
We say of a man that he is in hhvele-
ment In this or that occupation or func-1
tion. Chancellor Canfiold Is always in i
his clement- and this Is what makes i
him a remarkablo man. His versatility
and adaptability aro extraordinary. If
ho is in Ids element In tho class room, ho
is equally in hip element In tho great
business office of the university, where '
ho llnds pleasuro in assuming respon
sibility anil (wrforming hard manual
laborj and I am sum that those who '
have had tho pleasuro of hearing his
witty remarks at tho banquet table or
his addresses fmm tho public platform
will testify that ho is happily at home in I
both of these places. In fact I do not .
know of any reputable place where ho
cannot gq and appear at ease and acquit
himself creditably, or of any undertak
ing in which he could not successfully
engage. Tho rough edges, if any thoro I
were, havo lieou knocked off him; tho
dust of tho study is not ohserviihlo--contact
with the world and his nervous
activity keeps him clear fmm this. He
is warm blooded and enthusiastic with
enough self restraint to keep him on
this sido of the border of crankdom.
It is not my desire to bo laudatory,
but simply to give tho chancellor his
duo credit. Ho has his weaknesses.
Ho is a man. Ho is tremendously ambi
tious. Tremendously is a strong word;
but it docs not overstate tho truth.
And this ambition leads him to under
take moro than ho ought to perform;
albeit ho docs not attempt moro than ho
carries out. Ho wants things well done,
and this desire, quickened by his intense
nervous energy urges him to do many
things that ho ought to leave to his
subordinates. Energy Is wasted on
small details that ought to bo reserved
for larger and moro imtiortant things.
Somebody has said that ho is tho great
est executive who makes thoso who uro
under his control rcliovo him, satisfactor
ily, of tho greatest amount of work. Chan
cellor Cantlcld does not carry out this
idcu. Not content with planning and
directing, ho must also got down among
tho workmen and put his own shoulder
to the wheol. Thoro can bo no doubt
that ho Injures hiniBelf by too clone ap
plication to comparatively unimportant
details.
It isn't an easy matter to distinguish
between cuubo and effect here. Whether
tho chancellor has bocoino nervous
through tho strain to which ho subjects
himself, or whether nervous energy is an
original characteristic and that it is this
very thing that causes him to attempt
so much more than ho ought, is not very
clear.
One of tho chancellor's strong mints
is tho quality that enables him to link
his arm with that of the passing stu
dent, und to make the latter fool that he,
Canfleld, has an interest in him und his
work.
What tho chancellor may accomplish,
what ho may do for the university, aro
subjects that do not properly come with
in the province of this sketch. . Wo havo
only to do with his personality. But
endowed as he is with strong intellectual
powor, and groat vigor; possessing in
reasonable moasuro tho power of con
centration Beldom the concomitant of an
ambition such as his, keeping himself in
touch with tho latest and most progres
sive ideas of his time, and with tho rare
gift of adaptability, it would seem that
the chancellor of tho University of Ne
braska has something more than an
ordinary future boforo him, and that tho
institution over which he presides, is
destined to mako rapid and effective
strides toward the goal, which the chan
cellor and the people of Nebraska huvo
marked out for it. Tryn.
