A8 TO ADVERTISER8.
With each day tho Dally Nobraskan
Is seeking to enlarge Its list of adver
tisers. It Is constantly ondoavorlng
to persuade the merchants of Lincoln
that its columns nro a' profitable
moans of reaching tho university pub
lic. Theso morchants are business
mon. They do not bollovo in doing
that which yields them no return.
Thoy ndvortise in tho Nebraskan be
cause they believe that the advertise
ments aro read by the university stu
dents and that tho Btudonts aro at
tracted by the wares so displayed. It
is plainly a business proposition with
them and they are not guided by
sentiment.
ThiB being bo, tho success of tho
.Nebraskan manager In soliciting ad
vertisements depends wholly upon tho
manner In which the readers of the
paper patronko tho mon who aid him.
If thoy pay little attention to the ad
vertisements of the paper, either by
not reading them, or by, not following
out tho suggestions mado therein, tho
Nebraskan loses patronage that is
worth much to It. Subcsriptlona do
not pay for publishing this paper. Tho
advertisements constitute the bulk of
tho receipts. Tho welfare of the pa
per therefore depends upon the stu
donts In the advertising as well as in
the subscription department. It Is a
fact stated by many advertisers that
tho students at Wesleyan and Cotnor
patronize them better In proportion to
the advertising in the school papers of
those colleges than do the university
irion. These students, they say, think
i loyalty to their school paper to aid
its patrons. So It should be with uni
versity students.
Patronize our advertisers. It helps
them1, us, and finally you.
to find somoono capable of taking his
place, but so far hiB efforts have been
vain, and, unless Colling finally de
cides to throw up his job for tho foot
ball season, the contor position can
not but bo weak.
Ewing and Wolcott, strong mon for
guard and tacklo positions, aro up
against tho scholarship rule and both
must pasB special examinations bo
foro thoy can lino up with the varsity
squad. Captain Beltzor is not in the
best of physical condition, owing to
sickness during the summer, and thiB
adds to tho worries of tho coach.
With those four men out o'f. the
game, four distinct places in the
CornhuBker line-up are weakened.
Could ColllnB, Ewing, and Wolcott
come back, the lino would bo much
strengthened and Nebraska's chances
would not appear nearly bo Bllm "as
thoy seom now. Tho calamity talk Is
not faked, if tho words of Colo and
Manager Eager count for anything.
Tho Nebraska team Is in reality in
bad shape and the wholo situation re
volves about Collins, Ewing, and Wol
cott' If Ewing and Wolcott pass their
tests, if Collins will sacrifice his
financial gain for the sake of tho
CornhuBker glory, thon but, will
thoy?

AVERY BANQUET8 FACULTY MEN.
Members of Assignment Committees
Met at Lincoln Hotel.
Chancellor Avery tendered the as
signment committees a banquet at the
Lincoln hotel Monday, at which six
teen guests were present. The ban
quet was given in appreciation of the
work the assignment committees had
dqne during registration week.
At tho banquet tho guests discussed
ways and means for getting things
into shape for the next semester's reg
istration. Tosq present werq: Pro
fessors Bengteon, Ford, Borrowman,
Aylsworth, Johnpon, Peralnger, Pool,

RaBmussen, Brehke, Sclplo, and Slay
maker. Registrar Harrison apa Pro
fessor C. A. Engberg were also pres-ent.
With tho announcement that exam
inations will soon be held for the
Rhodes scholarship, many Nebraska
undergraduates aro getting busy re
viewing their Latin and mathomaticB.
Tho graduation from Oxford In Juno
of Samuel Rlnaker will leave a va
cancy from this Btate which will be
filled by one of those passing the ex
amination to be held noxt month. The
examination will be held the 19th and
20th of October and will be open to
any student who has reached at leaBi
the end of hlB sophomore year. V
The scholar chosen from this state
will take up his residence at Oxford
next fall. Two scholars aro ohoson
from each state, but some of the
states, as Wyoming, have not been
taking advantage of the offer. The
Rhodes scholarship has heretofore
been more widely advertised and
sought after in tho eaBt than in the
west, but tho institution of a few
ohanges In the examination .schedule
It is believed will attract a larger
number of competitors. Heretofore
Latin, Greek andmathomaUcs com
prised the three subjects upon which
a candidate was , examined. Many
students disliked the Idea of talcing
Greek merely for tho sake of compet
ing for the scholarship and so were
debarred from competing.
Greek la Omitted.
This has been changed, however,
and a competitor Is now allowed to
take the examination In Latin and
mathematics, and if ho should be
chosen, to make up the Greek require
ment later.
Another change In the policy here
tofore followed in the choosing of the
Rhodes scholars Is the recognition
now given to the general ability of
the candidate in other lines besides
scholarship. Athletic ability, popu
larity with fellow students, personal
character and many other similar at
tainments and characteristics all now,
play their part In the choosing of the
lucky scholar. The examinations
have been lightened this year for the
purpose of allowing more candidates a
chance tq pass and so as to obtain .a
wider selection of men representing
the other attainments In combination
with scholarship. All of this has been
done so as to eliminate the mere
grind and secure the good all-around
man.
Is Attractive Life.
A Rhodes scholar receives $1,600 a
year, and according to the Nebarska
representative At Oxford at present,
living expenses are lower there than
here. Student life at Oxford is de
scribed as delightful. According to
the college system of that, school each
student rooms in the college In which
he is taking his work. The student
has two roomB, in which he may give
entertainments to his friends.
time is spent in travel on tho con
tinent, the expense of such travel com
ing .easily within the means of tho
Rhodes scholar. The American stu
dents at Oxford carried off over fifty
per cent of the athletic honor's last
year. They are scholars in tho true
sense of the word and aro described
as the cream of American. manhood.
Sam Rlnaker of Beatrice, who will
graduate there in June, has been
spending tho summer in this country.
George Marsh of Cotner Is the other
representative of tills state at Oxford
at tho present time. He will receive,
his degree In 1911.
