a showing as this Is greatly to tho ad

for tho activities of Professor Engborg

to lend him money occasionally to help

SENIOR CAP8.
Tho senior girls .nro now appoarlng
in their usual graduation capB, thoroby
marking thomBolvo8 distinct from tho
glrla of tho three lower classes. Their
donning of tho mortarboards has led a
prominent senior man to suggest tho
propriety of like action on tho part of
tho men of tho class. Ho does not
nocoBBarlly advocate tho ubo of tho
mortarboard arrangomont, but ho
thinks it would bo an excellent plan
for tho seniors to wear class capB of
somo sort.
Tho idea is not at all bad, and may
woll bo considered by tho sen lore.
Hero at Nobraaka tho woaring of claas
cap8 has always been a moro or I08B
perfunctory custom, aomotlmea fol
lowed quite generally, but moro fre
quently passed by without much no
tice. In somo othor schools tho woar
ing of aomo designation marking each
of tho claesea has become a traditional
cuatom. While Nebraska is founding
traditions it might be well to remem
ber this ono.
but tho rivalry has boon of a clean and
healthy aort, woll calculated to work
to tho bonoflt of both schools.
With Ames back on tho Cornhuskor
achcdulo, it la less probablo that Mis
souri enn bo glvon a placo on tho list.
No offort should bq spared, howovor,
to schedule tho Tlgors, If It can bo
dono without overburdening tho Corn
huskors with heavy games. Nobrna
ka's IntoroBt In tho work of tho M1b
sourlans Is mnrkqd and a gamo with
tho Columbia Institution would un
doubtedly draw a good crow. It would
soom advantageous to drop Denver nnd
porhnps ono 6r two othor schools not
of striot colleglato standing In order
that both Amoa and Missouri could bo
given games with Nebraska.
LE88 DELINQUENCY.
.Tho report of Professor Ohatburn to

decrease in student delinquency at tho

AN ETHICAL STANDARD.
In his convocation address TueBday,
Rev. S. Mills HayB issued an appeal to
tho young man of tho twentieth cen
tury for adhoronco to tho ethical stand
ard rather than to tho domand for gold
at any cost Ho declared that in his
belief tho present century was to mark
tho roturn to higher form of business
competition with moro regard for oth
ors and with loss porniclous grood.
Rov. Hays' suggestion is woll for
university studonts to dwell upon. Ho
sounds a note of optimism which Is
well worth noting amid tho many pes
slmlstlc utterances which aro going
tho rounds of both pulpit and press.
Too many men, thomsolvea of high
character, deem it noceaaary to de-
ploro tho present business methods
and tho morals of tho men engaged In
commercial enterprises without offer
ing any light to lead tho way out of
tho alleged dark paths of moral turp
itude. They point out tho ovlla exist
ent and then leave tho youth to medi
ta(;o upon tho wickedness of his ago
without offering any solution 'of tho
difficulty, and many of thorn without
apparently expecting anything but a
steady progress to tho eternal bow
wows. ' '
