It Is during these days of preliminary
practice on the gridiron that the var
sity rooters should begin to get Into
some kind of shape. It is encouraging
to see the interest taken on the field
and In the men. but there isn't very
much noise as a rule. The rooters will
have to hurry and get into training.
Doane will be on hand Saturday and
If enough supporters come -along with
the team they will make themselves
heard. The university should show
them how to root this time.
Anyone who wishes to advertise any
thing for sale or rent, or for anything
lost, strayed or stolen, or If anyone
wishes to sell a book, a piece of fur
niture or uny kind of a possession, they
should put an "add" in the "Daily"
and get what they want or find a re
turn for the small expenditure. Small
line '"adds" of rooms for rent, for
boarding houses, or for anything else
would bo a paying Jnvestinentr'in the
"Daily." Send them to the ofllee and
they will receive attention.
With the return of President Roose
velt to Washington tho hopes of many
Lincoln people will be blasted for at
least some time, as it Is ;iot known Just
when another trip could be made into
the west by the chief executive. There
will be a large number of citizens who
will not have the privilege of showing
their patriotism and respect to the
highest man In tho land. Many of
Lincoln's best citizens will be denied
the chance, for the time being, of
grasping the president's hand, and of
showing evidences of their great es
teem. As the whole affair was planned
In honor of the chief executive of the
land, there were to be no manifesta
tions of party spirit and Lincoln was
to have turned out enmnsse and loud
with rejoicing. As it is, however, this
dream us it turns out to be. will actual
ly be a dream, and President Roosevelt
will not know, for some time at least,
the welcome the capital city of Nebras
ka had In store for him.
In an early number of last year's
"Daily" an editorial appeared suggest
ing to the students that they write to
their home papers letters relative to
the university that the Institution
might become better known throughout
the Btate. It is probable that few acted
on the suggestion.
Judging from the present registration
it ought to be conceded that the uni
versity needs no such advertisement.
The yearly product of men and women
it turns out and their success In life
Is the only advertisement necessary to
bring students from all parts of the
state and even from other states. There
will probably be more students this
year than ever before and professors
will have more cause this year than
last for complaints that their depart
ments are crowded.
It Is to be earnestly hoped that the
next legislature will make liberal ap
propriations for the university, that it
may do the best possible work for the
education of the young people of the
Mate.
An Essential Study.
O.i ant said: "If 1 would do anything.
I must first be a man." Never before
has this been i.s true as it is today,
('.ranting that we must first be men
and women, our course of study should
be selected with the aim of building up
strong manly character, rather than of
getting a college degree.
We take work under the instructors
in whom we find traits of our "ideal."
We select our friends Trom among
those whom we would make our mod
els. We read and study certain books
because they contain that which we
want in our lives, because they add to
our lives more of the good, true, noble,
and beautiful.
Our greatest examples among men
(an not equal the example of Christ,
set before us in the Bible. Besides giv
ing us the spirit of Christ, "the Bible
Is," in the words of our Chancellor,
"the masterpiece of the world as lit
erature." And quoting Dr. Tittle, "The
Bible is the most modern book."
It was of so much value to a suc
cessful student last year that he said,
"All my other studies only go to make
the Bible clearer," adding, "I would
not exchange what I got out of a year's
study in "The Life of Christ," for all
the knowledge that seventeen hours in
the university curiculum gave me."
If this study can mean so much to a
student, and if it has meant so much
to our Chancellor that he would not
give up what knowledge he has of the
Bible for his knowledge of other great
works, is it not worth our considera
tion? The V. M. C. A. Bible department
invites your attention to its courses
2 Acts and Epistles.
1. Studies in the Life of Christ.
3. Old Testament Characters.
4. Teach IngH of Jesus and His Dis
ciples. College "yells" are wonderful things
as a rule, but the following from the
Syracuse Medical College is entitled to
first place:
"Well man, sick man, dead man
stiff!
Dig etu up. cut 'em up what's the
liff!
Humorous, tumorous, blood and
gore!
Syracuse Medicos 1904!
. Those who contemplate taking a
course of any sort by correspondence
may find valuable suggestion in an ar
ticle by Kussell Doubleday in the
World's Work for September. Mr.
Doubleday states the fact that there
are thousands of people who can get
their education in no other way than
through schools of correspondence, and
henue he thinks the correspondence
school is destined to be a powerful fac
tor In education.
