"Excessive social lite, excessive
frivolity and oxcosslvo student activ
ities have no place in war times, for
an extravagant dinner may moan a
soldier hungry In Franco!"
Urging the patriotic necessity of
eliminating all unnecessary clogs from
scholastic progress this yoar, Chancel
lor Samuel Avory of tho University of
Nebraska, In his annual convocatlonal
address, dellvored to tho student body
said:
"It does not seem an unreasonable
request that while your comrades aro
in tho miro of tho tronchos, you may
well cut out half of your social ex
pense and glvo tho balance to tho
work of tho Ited Cross and Y. M. C. A.
"No one would llko to think that
the money foolishly squandered on a
prom or a party dross might, if di
rected In tho right channel have suvod
tho Hfo of a Nobraskan lighting for
poaco and security of tho world.
"In my Judgment," ho continued,
"tho way to bring about peace is to
convince tho imperial German govern
mont that wo intend to fight to tho
-last man and the last dollar; that
thero is no limit to our courage, our
resolution and our devotion. And one
of tho ways to do this is to stop tho
clamor for side-stepping the war and
concluding an inglorious peace."
Of Germany, ho said: "Wo aro fac
ing a combination of rugged honesty
in tho people and rank deceit in of
ficial circles. We aro facing a para
dox in tho Gorman people, tho most
gonorally intelligent and at the samo
time tho most systematically deceived
of any peoplo that tho sun has over
shono upon."
Motion Picture Work a New Course.
Photography and motion picture
work is a now courso open to students
of tho University of Nebraska. Its ob
ject is to prepare men for motion pic
ture taking, especially from aero
planes, and it will bo carried on in the
department of geography and conser
ration, a department closely connect
ed with tho stato conservation com
mission, both of which aro headed by
Dr. Q. E. Condra. Tho state has tho
best equipment in tho west for tho

Coal Famine Not Likely
Possibilities of a coal famine in Ne
braska tho coming winter aro com
pletely dissipated by the announce
ment of tho results of tho census
which tho Nebraska state council of
defonse took of tho coal situation and
Just mndo public. Onu-rourth of tho
total nmount of coal needed in tho
stato during tho noxt twelve months
is already on hand, according to tho
information coal dealers havo fur
nished the .council. Omaha and Lin
coln aro particularly well provided
for, although exact figures havo not
been given out by tho council. Un
officially, It is said that in both cities
thoro is a sufficient nmount of 'coal
in the yards of the dealers to look
aftor tho ontlro noeds for half of tho
wlntor. Probably 10 per cent moro
of tho total amount needed has al
ready been contracted for and shortly
will be shipped. This is believed by
tho council to preclude any possibility
of a coal famine during tho wlntor in
either city.
Rate Case Hearing Postponed
Express rate cases will not be takon
up again for hearing by tho Nebraska
railway commission until November 5,
having been postponed by general
agreement from tho date of Septem

commission's accounting department
six weeks more time to assemble ma

the express companlos officials, who
have already testified.

As anothor measure to prevent
monopoly in the acquisition of min
eral rights on state school lands, tho
board of educational lands and funds
has adopted a rulo that prohibits the

Tho board had spoclflcally in mind,
it is said, when making this 'ruling
tho possibility of operators of west

On September 20, 1702, France first
assumed the title of a republic. On tho
same day her raw Carmagnole levies
fought and won the battle of Vnlmy, a
bnttlo which proved to tho doubters
of whom Franco herself was one thnt
the republican spirit possessed mettle;
thnt France could not only declare her
self a republic, but could defend nnd
mnlntnln herself as n republic. Vnlmy,
declares Creasy, set tho kings of Eu
rope trembling after 18 centuries of
security. Vnlmy, wrote Goethe, who
wntcheil the battle, "commences a new
era In tho world's history." Vnlmy de
creed there should bo thnt republican
Franco which fights the bnttlo oL free
dom today.
Vnlmy was fought In the same re
gion which has seen some of the blood
iest encounters of the presen. wnr. It
took place in the nmrshy country of
the Alsne nnd the Aube, with the for
est of Argonno, then much heavier
and greater In extent thnn It Is now,
as a prominent strategic feature. Its
victor was Kellermnn, father of the
Kellermnn whose brilliant cavalry
charge afterward decided the battle of
Marengo. Under Napoleon tho elder
Kellermnn nwimed the title of duke
of Vnlmy. When he died ho desired
thnt his heart should bo burled upon
the battlefield where he hnd won his
fame.
Tho- nrmy which enmo against the
crude French republican volunteers In
cluded not only G0.000 Prussians nnd
15.000 Austrian, but no less thnn 15,-
000 French emigres of the old royalist
days, most of them of noble birth, all
of them skilled In nrms and represent
ing the flower of the commissioned
personnel of the old and formidable
French nrmy. In chief command was
the duke of Brunswick, second only In
mllltnry skill to the Grout Frederick,
as whose lieutenant he had served.
Heading the emigres was Conde.
Against these Dumourlez, tho sixty-year-old
veteran who held the chief
French command, could oppose only
a total of somo 50,000 men badly or
ganized nnd disciplined, for tho most
part worse officered and shockingly
lacking in equipment and supplies.
Eight bnttallons were so mutinous
thnt Dumourlez, under pretense of
reviewing them, posted them with n
strong force of cavalry In their rear
and cannon on their flanks, after
which ho informed them thnt they
were not worthy to be called either
soldiers or citizens. They would do
well, ho further Informed them, to
do their duty, or the cavalry and tho
guns would do dnty to them.
1 The Invaders advanced in what
,they believed would be only a march
'of Joy and triumph to Paris In three
columns. In the earlier engage
ments tho French fled llko sheep. On
one occasion they fled without fir
ing a shot On another a division
of 10,000 scurried back before tho scat
tering flro of a few Austrian skirmish
ers. To make matters worse, French
underestimate of the enemy's sagacity
left weakly defended an Important
pass which an Austrian corps, under
Clarlfayt, promptly forced after somo
sharp fighting.
Misfortune nnd tho necessity of
covering an extended front rather
than faulty generalship caused tho
separation of Dumourlez nnd Keller
mnn who was trying to Join him by
a wheeling movement from Metz nnd
gavo opportunity for the Invading
force to attempt tho overwhelming
of the latter ns ho stood Isolated on
tho plateau of Valmy, at a dangerous
interval from his chief. Tho young
king of Prussia, who was with
Brunswick's forces, Joined with tho
emigre French princes In urging an
immediate attack. Accordingly tho
right wing of tho invading nrmy
moved forward early in the morning
to turn Kellerraan's left flank nnd
cut him off from retreat to Chalons.
Dumourlez, an alert nnd spry citi
zen In spite of his years, ordered up
troops to support Kcllcrman, but theso
troops were Blow in Btartlng.
Tho samo sort of fog which embar
rassed tho opposing forces of tho
present war when they clashed on
the same ground hung over the bat
tlefield. It was ten o'clock when tho
tatterdemalion French nrmy per
ceived emerging from tho white
mists tho countless Prussian cav
alry and the bristling columns of In
fantry now closo upon them. The
French, remembering tho running
they hud found It advlsnblo to do In
tho preliminary skirmishing, wero
nervous, nnd showed It. However, Kel
lermnn nnd the youthful Due do Chnr
tres, a youngster of twenty who served
ns n general under him, steadied their
men so successfully thut they endured
splendidly tho'pouudlng of tho Prus
sian artillery which opened on them
from La Lunc. Tho French guns re

man, believing tho enemy tiro slacken

tho undoing of the French for tho
charge landed itself fairly under the
pieces of a masked battery which open

tho French broke in wild disorder,
whilo Kcllcrman fc'mself went down

was beside himself with rago. Be

formed the Unwer of his regiments In
person nnd headed them for the French
line. The French artillery was ngnln
firing with spirit nnd by now tho re
enforcements sent by Dumourlez wero
beginning to como Into piny. Tho
Prussian king's staff was mowed down
by his side, but still the boyish mon
urch, his sword waving nbove his head,
besought his men to go forward. For
a time the Issue hung In tho balance,

vainly endeavored to closo the great

their king back In the flood of disas

Brunswick lingered some time aft

lack of confidence thinned his ranks.
France, on the contrary, felt a giant's

It. Never again was tho decision In
