TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 2, 1909.
It has boon announced that the
poster which was placed In University
Hall to advertlso tho sophomoro in
formal has boon stolon. Such an act
as this cannot bo justified and Ib con
tomptiblo vnndalism. It is amazing
that a work of art should nrouso BUCU
feelings in tho mind of anyono, much
less a Btudont at tho Unlvorslty of
Nebraska.
As usuul tho ond of tho somoster
has brought a largo number of fatluros
to university studonts. Is It not pos
sible thnt this may bo largely ex
plained by tho cold condition of many
of tho rooms In which examinations
woro held?
THE FIR8T I88UE.

will, howovor, bo- no break In tho ap
pearance of tho paper bofore tho stu

has had previous exporienco on the
paper.

much of the students tlmo and Inter
est during tho fall, have largely given
way to the regular work of the school
year by tho middle of the winter. For
this reason then tho Bchool paper
which reflects the activities of the stu
dents, must from tho very nature of
the caso be slightly dlfferont during
the second semestor from what it is
during the first. It may be a little less
breezy in spite of, all that the staff
can do, but this Is not by any means
saying thnt it is not fulfilling Its func
tion to the university in just as high
a 'degree.
It is undoubtedly ono of tho most
Important functions of tho university
paper to givo all tho nows of the
school and of tho difforent student ac
tivities in as bright and Interesting a
manner as possible. But thero is also
another function which the paper must
perform if it is to realize Its highest
valuo to tho university. It should
form a dally record of tho achieve
ments of tho university along every
lino.
This is a thing that ltNls impossible
for the Nobraskan staff to accomplish,
by Jtself -It must havo the hoarty
support and co-operation" of tho fac
ulty. Tho Nobraskan commences tho
;VHew semestor with' an unusually large
' number '.of reporters, and it will be
' glad to faond them regularly to allifoundation.

During tho coming semester it will
bo tho policy of tho Nobraskan to
speak out clearly when It seos things
which It bellovos nro wrong. It will
not, howovor, consider itself an instru
ment existing for the solo purpose of
roforming tho school and hunting
something to bo changed. Abovo all
It will bo Hiiro of tho facts bofore It
speaks.
During the iust semester tho Nc
braBkan has maintained a department
called tho Forum for tho publication
of all communications which may bo
received. This will be continued dur
ing the next semester and It is hoped
that tho studoutB of tho unlvorslty will
tako advantage of it to discuss ques
tions of gonoral interest. Tho No
braskan can perform no higher func
tion thnn to make possiblo tho freo dis
cussion of all questions of interest.
8HALL IT BE ACCEPTED?
In tho last Issue of tho Unlvorslty
Journal tho loading article is devoted
to a discussion of tho question as to
whether or not tho stato universities
should accept tho Carnegio Rotliing
Pensions. The author qf the nrttelo,
Professor Georgo Elliott Howard, 3s
particularly capable of speaking on
thlB subject, as his -work has boon
along a lino that. has brought him in
touch with tho question. Tho matter
is of great importance to tho unlvoc
Bity nt tho prosent tlmo, as it Is now
being considered by the legislature.

Professor Howard discusses the
question franklyand.comesao'the ;on-v
elusion that the pension system should
b6 accepted. He says among other
things:
"Therd: are obvious reasons why a
collegiate penBlon system may prove
of great social and educational value.
At tho best, professorial incomes ;irp
small compared with tho rownrds
-which the same ability and cost of
training aro able to command in many
other vocatjons. Yet ItJ. of the great
est moment to society that scholars
engaged In tho creative research by
which tho boundaries of knowledge ure
widened Bhall bo freed from apxloty
on tho bread-and-butter question, and
be able to devote themselves zealously
and uninterruptedly to research.
"This winter, In all of tho states
nhoso legislatures meet, the question
Mill arise: Shall the nroffer of the
retiring pensions be accepted? Tho
question Is almost sure to bo answered
in tho affirmative, Thftt sentiment is
strongly in favor,' the writer knows
from personal discussion with ropre'
8entatiye men of leading universities,
such as those of Minnesota and Wis
consin, Indeed, tho loglslaturo " of
Massachusetts has already approved
tho application of hor.-8tate agricul
tural college for participation in tho
"It will bo safe and wiso for tho
Unlvorslty of Nebraska, to partlcipato
In tho Carncgio foundation. All tho
moro so, bocause aftor Its benefits aro
onco accepted,4 thoro Is no opportunity
for' favoritism or unjust discrimination
In tho caso pl Individual teachers. In
effect tho operation of tho systom is
automatic. A contractual relation is
created; and surely tho court would
maintain tho just rights of any toach
or oven against an unwlso action of
(h'o board itsolf, should such an
emergency ovor arise. Tho stato it
self is thus a bulwark against oppres
sive uso of tho system. Freedom of
teaching is not in peril Academic and
democratic ideas aro safe."
