Already some of the older students
have felt the hand of the law and are
finding themselves forced to register
for the military drill. While many of
them do not object to the drill in itself
they do not like the idea of going
back Into the battalion after they have
been in college for more than three
years. By the ruling of last year, how
ever, the drill will be a necessary re
quirement in graduation and Seniors
will find themselves confronted with
the problem of returning to the ranks.
A friend of Columbia university, in
A fried of Columbia University, in
New York City, has offered to endow a
university press, with a private print
ing plant, to cost $20,000, for the benefit
of the student publications. The ofTer
is now in the hands of the trustees,
where its acceptance seems doubtful,
Inasmuch as several of the trustees are
said to b(p unfavorable to the acquisi
tion of a press by the university.
Whether or not the plan is accepted
by the trustees the student publications
are practically lssured of having a pri
vate plant near the university. Sever
al of the leading printing firms In New
York have already been approached
with a view of establishing a branch
near the institution for the printing
of college papers.
A number of sophomore and junior
students have registered with a view
-to working gradually into the new
course In forestry. Conditions are Buch
that they can not take the course as
scheduled, some having no credit for
subjects which should already have
been taken, and some having to make
up freshman requirements In subjects
which afford no credit on the forestry
course. New students who wish to go
Into the work must take the course as
outlined, but for advanced students
who have some credit to apply on the
course, and who by reason of con
flicts or other disadvantages find them
selves handicapped, Dr. Bessey offers
liberal substitutions In tho non-essentials.
In other words some subjects,
such as history and economics, are re
quired to give the student a broad gen
eral education. These not being tch
nlcal and not absolutely necesarry to
an understanding of forestry, substi
tution may be made if occasion de
mands.
The school of forestry opens up a
new field to Nebraska students, that
of government forestry work, a field
which Is practically unlimited because
comparatively new and of national ex
tent and importance. The problem of
maintaining the forest reserve of tho
United States yearly demands more
attention. Before long there will be a
End for men experienced in
forestry, while as yet the supply is
small. To meet this growing demand
the course in forestry is offered at
tho univerfiity and those of moderate
ability who go Into the work will bo
sure of pleasant situations with just
compensation.
In discussing the value of newspaper
reading In education Frank Nelson
state superintendent of public schools
of Kansas, recently made the follow
ing remarks:
"From ten to fifteen minutes should
be devoted In each common school In
Kansas each day to the reading of cur
rent news from some good dally paper.
A good newspaper Is as good an edu
cator as one of the regular text books;
in fact, better. The pupils, by reading
It or listening to it being read, get
the practical side, not the theoretical.
The teacher can select news concern
ing governmental affairs and stuff of
that kind. He can read some of the
editorials on subjects not of political
character and read boiiic of the funny
sayings. The pupils will enjoy It. I
tried it once when I was teaching.. It f
became the most pleasant fifteen min
utes of the day's work. It not only
posts children on the current events
of the day, but helps them in gram
mar, hiBtory and geograph.y Show me
a Bchool where a newspaper is read
every morning and I will Bhow you pu
pils that, for intelligence, can dis
count pupils of a like grade where the
newspaper is wanting." Exchange.
(Chancellor's Address from p. i.)
commodities above the level where
competition would place these prices;
they may to some extent vassalize so
ciety; and they may retard inventive
ness and inventions.
He says: "My belief is that mon
opolistic agencies will, in the course
of time, be effectively looked after,
their mlchiefs abated, and the agencies
themselves turned Into public bless
ings. You can never suppress them
and you ought not to desire to."
To counteract the tendency of a
truBt to pile up riches he would have
a Just, non-partisan board with a duty
to U) ascertain once a year by just
appraisal and to publish the actual
value of that trust's property; (2) to
compare that with the face value of
the stock and publish the result, and
(3) to ascertain by an examination of
its accounts and to publish its gross
and Its net earnings. Public opinion
would then have a tendency to prevent
prices from becoming high.
As to the vassalage of society re
sulting from fewness of industries com-,
pulsion of men to work for wages, and
the control of universities and news
papers by monopolies, Dr. Andrews
says: "Tho domineering power now
possessed by wealth in this country
arises not from its abundance but from
Its paucity." Rich men are too few for
the public good. They form a clique
and work for their own Interest to
the detriment of society, whereas If
the number of wealthy men were mul
tiplied they would break Into factions
and competition would result. Thus
the remedy for the trust Is found In
tho trust and the ultimate result will
be a benefit to the people.
The third danger Is the repression
of Invention. The Chancellor admits
that the monopoly does not further In
vention, for when a firm has absolute
control, it has lost lta Incentive to Im
prove machinery. But even In consid
eration of this fact the monopoly
turns out wealth faster thin competi
tive Industry ever could, anumultlplles
the means of education to such an ex
tent so that it "redounds to the in
tellectual and aesthetic development
of the race and the advancement of
civilization."
