Remember tho basket ball game to
morrow evening. Every Bophomore
and Junior should come out and sup
port tho mon who will strive to uphold
tho honor of their respective classes.
Here Is an opportunity to show that
class spMrit Is not a thing of the past
In the University, as well as to lenl
encouragement to the promotion of
lnterclass contests In general. Let all
rally to the support of their fellow
classmen and make their presence feit
In determining the result of the game.

There seems to be an Impression
among some of the cltlzenB of Lincoln
that the University campus Is a public
thoroughfare. So many parties who
nre in no wise connected with the Uni
versity have become accustomed i.o
UBlng the walks on the campus as a
short cut, in preference to going around
the block, that active measures have
been taken to do away with the
nuisance. While all who wish to visit
the University or the campus are wel
come, objection must be made to those
who habitually use the walks as u
short route, in order to suit their own
convenience.

Every student in the University
should take a physical examination at
least once a year. Each should find
out bin own personal defects and try to
overcome them. By following out the
ndvle of a competent person and in
dulging in a certain amount of exer
olw, In almost every case the constitu
te will be strengthened and the con
dttion of tho body Improved. Good
health Is essential to every student's
success A student with poor health
od a weakened constitution is study
ing under disadvantages and cannot do
justice to himself. An education ob
tained at the expense of the health is
a costly one and by It a student is un
fitted rather than fitted for the cares
and stress of life. It is important for
each student to take proper care of the
body and to train it to do his will.

organized labor In obtaining lta rights.
It Is now customary for a student to
work three hours each day for his
board. If the scale goes through he
will be ablo to earn his board and sixty
cents for tho same length of time. This
will pay all his expenses In school and
at the same time he will be aiding
unionism, which means "living wages
for laboring men." I. C. B.

Yesterday's Exercises:
Owing to illness Dr. Corthell was un
able to speak at convocation yesterday
morning and In his absence Chancellor
Andrews took advantage of the occa
sion to make a few announcements and
general lemarks. Since the require
ments have been put Into effect for
five hours' drill, there has been a de
mand for an open period In which
st'ldents and professors may confer
and class meetings be held. Accord
ingly it has been decided to set aside
the convocation period on Monday for
these purposes. Then students may
hold whateer meetings or rallies are
legitimate and necessary In the chapel.
In reference to the attendance at con
tention, the chancellor thought that
chapel was by no means a failure in
this respect. Mathematics and philoso
phy are not failures because the classes
are not well attended, and the same is
true of chapel. The main reason why
the attendance is not greater than it
i, is because large numbers who fail
to attend are unaware of the fine op
portunities they are missing. A gen
eral attendance of professors and stu
dents at chapel would be the best
thing to develop University spirit. If
all could come and meet and see each
other day after day the problem would
bt Bolved. Each student should take
upon himself some missionary work
and do all In his power to help in bet
tering the attendance. By so doing
each would be contributing his share
toward tho increase of University
spirit. Old students who have settled
down to their life's work always look
back to their college days a3 the pleas
antest they ever spent, and are alwayb
willing to do whatever they can toward
upbuilding their alma mater.
At 10:30 yesterday morning the cooks
and waiters of the city walked out on a
strike. There has been a great deal of
trouble betwoen tile restaurant men
and their employes and this culminated
, in the action taken yesterday. Th
union men assert that they have taken
thhi step only after tho longest and
most careful deliberation. They have
presented several Bcales to the restau
rant men, who refuse to recognize tho
union In "any way, shape, or form."
This action of the union will affect a
great many students who aro earning
their board by this kind of work. The
stand taken by the union has doubt
less been greatly misunderstood. The
union Is not fighting the students, but
Invites them to Join the union and aid
Omuha Medical School Pulse: At
last tho legislature has made a move
toward suitable requirements for med
ical practitioners in Nebraska. The
least illiterate state in the. union hus
been one of the last to recognize that
with higher standards around us we
have become a dumping ground for the
so-called "faith healers," "scientists,"
"osteopaths," "magnetic healers," and
quacks and charlatans of every kind,
color and sex. We don't want men
from our school or any other to prac
tice here who are not able to pass a
fair examination given by a state
board. Let tho good work go on down
there at Lincoln we won't care If that
osteopath bill comes up again.

Dr. Aley, chronic diseases, 1318 O.
Professor Wolf, principal of tho Lin
coln high school, gave a thirty-minute
talk beforo tho Pedagogical club last
night on "Personal Characteristics
That Influence the Employment of
Teachers." The discussion was given
from tho standpoint of a principal,
which the speaker thought was not
much different from that of the prim
ary or elementary teacher.
Professor Wolf thinks that teachers
are born, not made, as poets are born,
and that the pupil will learn much
more from the born teacher than from
one who acquires his art by study.
The supply of good teachers, however,
Is very limited and the ranks must
therefore be filled by those who are
not fitted by nature for the profession.
The high school student Is far dif
ferent from the lower grade student.
He sees things and weighs them, asso
ciating and comparing one with the
other. The mere statement of the
teacher is not sufficient to convince
him of the truth or untruth of the
problems that present themselves. He
finds fault continually and must be
coaxed, not driven, which makes the
teacher's position a hard one.
With reference to physical conditions
Professor Waif, speaking from experi
ence largely, said that good health is
the prlmo essential to successful school
teaching. No one with poor health
should think of teaching.
Next to good health, the speaker con
sidered a good, strong, pleasant, clear
voice as most important. A voice with
the proper pitch, tone and force will
have more influence with the pupil
than threats and the rod.
Good looks are a greater advantage
to the high school teacher than most
people imagine. A good face, not a
pretty one, at once commands respect
and wins the affections of the student.
Force and vigor that carry every
thing along and allow no halting, no
slacking of progress, is an absolute
necessity In the high school teacher.
The teacher who lagB holds the entire
school back with him. To obtain the
best results tho teacher must be in
tense and must go about his work with
an earnestness that comes from tho
heart.
As to the Intellectual characteristics
of the high school teacher, Professor
Wolf said that the teacher must be a
thorough njaster of every subject with
which he deals; he must love it and be
devoted to his work. He must not
work for salary merely, for the student
soon finds out his object and purpose.
Teachers fail before the board or
education because of roughness. They
should be gentle in manner, unselfish,
patient. Tho high school pupil is .un
reasonable and variable and blame the
teacher on the moment, but repents
later.
Many teachers fail, too, because of
rashness. They take a quick stand
which they ultimately have to abandon.
They should bo slow to act and never
have to retrace their steps.
Tho last and greatest characteristic,
said the speaker, Is plain common
sense. Tiie successful teacher must
have It.
