Mrs. Silesce Dales-Knapp Violin Recital Memorial Hall ( ill Elevfen A.

THo editor wlBhos to oxplain that tho rio'ciiliarly confUBCd condition of tho editorial columns yoBtorday morn lng Was not duo to any dorangomont a( his mind, but was ono of tho re-. suits of tooxcusnblo carolossnosB in tho printing shop. It 1b most sincoroly hbpVd that suoh blundors aB this can In tho futuro bo obviatod. Tho world has professional men without number, hidn with toclinical kuowlodgo aro at ovory hand, but a man who crin think clearly and ac curately, a man who can meet his problems and solvo them is as rare as a' truly great man. Tho ability to do this, if it can bo said' to como from education at all, must como not from technical study, but from broad knowledge of history, art, -roligion and philosophy. Theso aro tho things that glvo a man such a bearing that nothing can over whelm him. This fact is coming to bo roallfcod moro and mora in tho tech nical schools of tho country and many professional courses havo been closed to all Who havo not first taken their A. B. degree Such a movement not only means bettor mon but it moans that tho professions will bo put upon a higher piano. University Bulletin Tho timo haB como for tho uni versity to "havo an original song that stands for somothlng definite and means somothlng to tho studenta of tho university. It ought not to bo noedssary to offor a reward to in torost tho best studont talent in this matter, but it scorns that no other mothod will accomplish anything. Thoro is most cortalnly sufficient tal ent in' tho university to produce a song that is" as distinctive as thoso of any elslorn collogo, and tho matter has now bpon sufficiently advortlsed so that ovory studont knows what is noeddd! It Is now up to tho students Vact'. ' . LET UB DO LIKEWI8E. Tho freshman at last havo tho right spirit ovoi1 at Iowa. Taking it upon thomsolvoB to ralso tho standard of Iowa athletics tho froshraen havo adopted a training plcdgo and agreed to abstain from tho use of lntoxlcun-,B, tobacco, and Injurious drinks and Bweots. Hero is what tho Dally lowan has to say of tho matter edi torially: "A training pledgo for freshmen track candidates is to bo found on tho armory bulletin. Throwing cus tom to tho winds, tho freshmen are determined to ralso tho standard of tho Iowa athlete upon tho highest plane. H.orotoforo, the general run of Iowa athletes havo not trained, consequently Iowa has been unable to hold her own In tho recent state meets. And furthermore, her track records aro-proof of tho fact, when compared with thoBO of eastern schools or of neighboring colleges, that her athletes do not develop their powers to tho highest degree MARCH Wednesday, Id. -"Graduate Pia'no Re cital," by MIbb Genevieve Podrea.

Dr. Bessey has recently written a, statement in which ho declares that training is tho impprtant thing whlio the .facts, of information aro of sec ondary importance. In a ripoeoh io .contly dollvorod, President Hadley of Yale declared: "Tho ideal collogo education seems to mo to bo ono whoro a student loams things that ho la' not going to uso in after life, by .methods that ho is going to use. Tho former element gives tho breath, tho latter element gives tho training." President Wilson of Princeton recent ly doclared? "I b'ellovo in general train ing with' no particular occupation in 'view, to bo ttio yory heart and os seticti of university training, and tho indispensable foundation of every spe cial development of knowledge oc 'aptitude that' is to lift a man to his profession1' or a scholar to his func tion of investigation." HWe' dre statements from three m'e'ri whdse lives havo been devoted , -to' education' on a' problem that is al- -way's of Vital' interest. It has been 'bhteridedf ro'm timo immemorial that Hhe time of a student is wasted if ho is (Tiot grubbing every moment during his '&!' career with tho direct end in -tieitlbt acquiring technical skill for iJonWpr6feBslon, or mental equipment for some speclaT buslne8. ' of efficiency. "Tho freshmen realize this weak ness of! loose training that retards ,tho development of tho Iowa ath lete, ana which, is encouraged to u great extent by tho student body. They not only deplore It but thoy aro ttaking decided stops in tho direction ot cnangmg , this popular attitude, .First, they aro voluntarily depriving themselves of luxuries and onjoy- munus wmen conuict witn their phy sical training. Second, they ask the co-oporauon, or ovory organization and individual in, tho university to support ,and encourage this attitude, and if, ,necossary to demand strict training of .every member of IoWa'a athletic .teams, and especially ot tho cantalns. "The following is the pledge which ,mony freshmen track and baseball candidates are singing: "Wo, tho undersigned freshmen track candidates, do hereby pledge ourselves to maintain the highest standard of physical training from now until tho end of tho track sea son: That, is, wo will abstain from the iuso of intoxicants, tobacco and injur- J ." - , WT. 1UU8 UriUKB ' HUU HWDUIB. 1I1UBU SO- .cauea sacnucos aro tne expression or our loyalty to?
