THE ELECTIVE 8Y8TEM.
Tho question of the elective system
in collogo as tho basis of the students'
course Is one over which school men
have had a good many rounds of
heated argument. It has its warm ad
vocates and its decided opponents,
each stdo maintaining its position for
or against tho systom completely.
What is a better solution than that
found hero at Nebraska?
In tho University, the plan has been
adoptod, whereby tho student must
got moro than a certain amount of re
quired work, then' he has a remainder
to eject himself. This plan includes
diploma. Tho proscribed course un
doubtedly does them good.
Thero are some credits more easily
obtained than others.
But to havo a university curriculum
entirely prescribed does an injustice
to the ono with real ambitions and
donito plans for realizing them. He
lias little opportunity to follow his fa
vorite subjects. Not that tho student's
oye ought to be fixed solely upon his
after-graduation career, but ho ought
to have something definite In mind re
garding that career. This does not
happen to bo a world simply of the
abstract.
Consequently, that plan which in
cludes tho greater share of the advan
tages of both systems is to be most
highly commended. Hero is something
at last which can bo boosted, not
"knocked at"
Arrangements are now being made
so that the agricultural students will
be able to take considerable more
work at tho State Farm than at pres
ent. This will be a great convenience
to those who now make several trips
a week and who drill at tho University.
The article in the January issue of
the University Studies on "The Influ
once of Crodlt upon thb Level of
Prices" by Mrs. England, has been
highly praiBed by Dr. Arthur Hadley
of Yalo. Ho snys ho cannot accept
the theory as yet, but will study It
with pleasure.

Unfortunately, there are some peo
ple of suillcient years and credits to ob

judgment or roal maturity enough to

Somebody elso has always told them
vhat to do; maybe if thero Is some
body, to take their little hand and
