The now school of Journalism estab lished In the Missouri State University at Columbia has already attracted a good deal of attention, and the pros pectus Just Issued by the University scorns to indicate that It will be con ducted In a brooder and more thorough fashion than other' ventures of the same sort. Thoro Is room for dif ference of opinion as to whether the Intending Journalist should receive a special education or follow the or dinary liberal curriculum, trusting to actual experience for such special knowledge as Is required; much may be said on both sides. But if a course In Journalism is worth while at nil, it Is such a broad and educational course as Is here marked out. The routine of a newspaper office Is not quite as much a gift as an accomplish ment. The things newspnper men can profitably know, too, nre so In numerable that no college course could Include them all. Yet In a more re stricted way there 1b a body of knowl edge which Is of paramount value in a newspaper ofllce, nnd which an ordin ary college education gives in part and in part misses. Broadly speaking, Journalism as a field for intellectual effort has always meant one of two things. It has mennt politics or it has meant literature an the arts. Kappa Epsilon Is the name of the new fraternity organized by upper classmen of the College of Liberal Arts with the Intention, It Ib said, of applying to Delta Kappa Epsilon for n charter. "D. K. E." as the name 1b universally shortened, is one of the Immortal big four which have always enjoyed a recognized prestige In the In the collego world. University of Washington. The University of Washington re ports 14 per cent Increase In total enrollment. Profiting by the example set by older colleges nnd universities of the East, the University of Washington has decided to abollBh the cane, rush, and after this year some other form of contest will be adopted to settle class supremacy between the sophomores and freshmen. The annual sophomore-freshmen re ception nt Syracuse University was made the occasion of a lively demon stration by upper classmen. The un-der-classmon reached the hall only with great difficulty nnd thoro dis covered that the refreshments had been already seized. Pandemonium reigned for n time, and life was gen erally made mlsornblo for the sopho mores and freshmen. A special train for Purdue students and friends will bo run to Chicago on the day of the Purdue-Chicago game, his Is the annrtal football excursion which the authorities' at Purdue sanc tion, but which not taken last year be cause a rate could not bo secured. This year the Monon agreed to fur nish one of the finest special trains out of Layfette for the seryleo of the Pur due football enthusiasts. Tickets J WELL AS BOYS A COMPLICATED TASK MAKING OF LARGE TELE8COPE 18 A DELICATE TASK. TESTED IN PHYSICS BUILDING Artificial Light Is Used to Test the Lens After It Has Been Ground to the Approximate 8hape Required. At chapel Tuesday morning, Profes sor Sweezy attempted, by means of pic tures to explain the methods by which a modern telescope Is built. Ho ex plained that tho building of n telescope naturally falls Into two divisions. First, the cutting of the lenseB, which taxes the Bklll of tho best mechanics, and second, the making of the machinery which runs the telescope. The llrst problem In the making of tho lenses Is to get a suitable piece of glass. There aro only three firms In the world that make a business of sup plying lenBeB for great telescopes. The reason for tho great difficulty encount ered Is the fact that (he-glass must be cooled slowly. The glass naturally cools more rapidly on tho outside than the inside and this makes a uniform density Impossible. The glaBS comes out of the furnass aB a big mass likely to contains flaws of many kinds, such as air bublcs. Chunks of the glass containing the flaws are first sawed off. The glass Is cooled in a huge oven made especially to prevent the outside of the mass from cooling more rapidly than the Inside. It is sealed in this oven and Is left there for days until it becomes thoroughly cool, The Grinding Process. A big disk Is used for grinding which has exactly the right curvature. With tills machine the lens Is ground until it has reached tho approximate shape required. The glass is then polished with fine emery paper. When the lense has reached this point it 1b ready for the testing room. This Is a long dark room with an ar tificial light at one end. The light Is focused through the lense nnd the op tician can then tell where the lense needs regrlndlng. In the Physics building an arrange ment has been made so that the lenses can be tested there. A thermometer bulb with sunlight flashed upon It is used as the artificial light. It has been found that thiB makes a very good artificial star. A Great Difference. There 1b a very great difference In the complication of large and small tel escopes. In the Bmall telescope alP parts are reached easily from the floor and can be manipulated by hand. A thirty-six Inch telescope 1b a remark ably complicated and delicate instru ment. The machinery must at the same time be massive enough to carry a great weight and delicate enough to make possible the most careful ad justments. The Season. This Ib the season When the great Question rising For debnte Is not whether Mr. Taft Should go forward Or go aft; Or if Mr. Bryan should Get It, Or just Get It good; Or If Mr. Sherman's ferns Catch more wind Than Mr. Kern's; .Or if Ted'B Arrangements were Really A dollar per; Or if It is Wise to go On a trip Qr save the dougu; Or if thunder, What's the use? Simply no one's Tongue is-loose On a single Other score Than the best way To restore . Luster, newness, And all that To a soiled Straw hat. ' St. Louis Post-Dispatch. Notice. A meeting of all cross-country men will, be held in Doctor Clapp's office, Thursday at 11 o'clock. WHERE YOU Wkv "Don't Tl?ey Want The men who advertise in The Nebraskan want your trade the others don't. Your friends always treat you better. PATRONIZE OUR ADVERTISERS Fall Boat Training. Fall training for the oarsmen of Stanford and California will begin at once. Stanford has a strong squad this year, many old men having returned and announced their intention of try ing out for the crew. A full regatta to be held under tho auspices of the Los Angeles and San Diego athletic clubs will" be participated in by Stanford fours and eights. Coach Dan Murphy will soon resume work. California's prospects wei'e never brighter. Fall training for freshmen will soon begin under the direction of. Dean" G. Witter, 09, captain of last year's varsjty eight, assisted by the coflswain and other members of tho crew. Coach E. M. Garnett will not be with California this year, although his successor has not been appointed, Coach Colson of Cornell will' probably be selected to coach the varsity crow. Iota Delta, a local fraternity organ ized November 2, 1907, at the Uni versity of Washington, has petitioned for a charter of Delta UpBllon. DO BUY? You Go Where Yom Tzade ? SOPHS GETTING BUSY. (Continuod .from Pago 1) served to agitato matters considerably yesterday. The situation in the class Is some what peculiar from several stand points. For one thing the sudden Im petus which the campaigns of various aspirants received last week was sur prising to nearly all tho members of the class. A quiet time had been an ticipated and only one man was in the field until Wednesday. On that date two others publicly announced their candidacy and things have been hum ming since. Tho class Is being thor oughly canvassed and it is probable that an unusually large number will turn out at the election. German 13, Notice. . The class in German 13, novel and drama, will meet in U. Ill, at'l o'clock Thursday, at which meeting tho tme for the regular session will be de-terminedi 1 V
