RAISE THE DUSTI
With tho realization that there 1b
danger of retrogression at Nebraska
comes tho question of the remedy.
The thing most needed Is, of course,
monoy. Now It has been argued by
somo that professors and students do
better work where overy convenience,
every ready-made bit of appointment,
or ovory desired kind of Bupply Is not
forthcoming nt the turn of a finger.
Luxurious surroundings and unlimited
resources might, It can bo understood,
influence toward easy living. Should
professorships becomo objects of
strife and wire-pulling because entail-
and when onco united in working tow
ard a common end can wield a won
derful Influence. They can bo drawn
together In two ways.
First, nil alumni should bo organ
ized by cities or by counties at least.
In Nebraska there are no great num
ber of largo cities, but each one of
six or eight thousand and over and
ovory county In the state should have
Its club of graduates from the Univer
sity who meet regularly, at least quar
terly, to discuss plans for boosting the
old alma mater. In this way some
thing deflnlto could bo worked for and
something worth whllo attained.
Hut these various clubs of alumni
would have to bo kept in touch with
the University In order to be kept In
terested. The only means for that is
an alumni paper issued regularly and
Issued often. The move toward in
troducing an alumni column into the
University Journal Is very, good, but
why not have things stirred sufficient
ly so that a full sfep and not only a
partlul and faltering ono be taken?
There ought to be thoro alumni or
ganization nt once and there ought to
be an alumni weekly to further it. It
la not impossible, if there are enough
willing to work. Whly not "go after"
things with a spirit that will -raise
somo dust??

ASTIGMATISM
A slight defect may make but little change in the appear-
pfi ance of things, but the unpleasant effect may be great.
ASTIGMATISM
uncorrected is a continual drain on your nerve energy. You
should have your eye defects attended to at once.

ing an easy life, universities would
naturally go backward In a short time,
but there Booms at present no need
of worrying over such a possibility.
Even at those universities best ap
pointed and paying the greatest sal
aries there is much to bo desired that
can not aa yet be obtained. . There is
no question that as conditions now
'stand, It Is t,ho wealthiest 'universities
that are rapidly going to tho front.
Therefore, what Nebraska needs is
money.
How is tho money to be obtained?
At least ono scheme that has proved
very effective at. other universities is
the organized effort of all alumni.
Alumni are people in high positions
