AN OPINION.
Tn an opinion expressedvjn a
,y.
letter to tho Lincoln Daily Star
yesterday, a member of the stu
dent body voices a sentiment
which, in kind if not in degree,
exists throughout a great portion
of tho student body.
Wq speak of traditions as fos
tering university spirit. Then
why not cling to what we have?
' There may be features of these
traditions' which gain the censure
of the press of tho state. But as
the university grows older these
traditions go through the mel
lowing, refining process until
there arc no rough edges to irri
. tato the most sensitive.
' The main thing in a tradition
is; age and lots of fresh air and
"exercisp. They do. not root eas
ily and they refuse to thrive un

CREATE NEW DEFARTMEHT
Dr. Joseph E. A. Alexis to Have
Charge of Department of
Scandinavian Languages.
Tho University of Nebraska
has decided to extend its activity
to tho Scandinavian languages.
During the past year tho country
ha.s been canvassed for a suitable
man to take chargo of the new
work, and the efforts have result
ed in the selection and appoint
ment of Joseph E. A. Alexis, at
present at tho University of Chi
cago. Mr. Alexis is well fitted for
his new duties. lie is a man of
scholarly attainment and consid
erable practical experience. Lin
guistics is his chosen field of
work. Although chiefly interest
ed in Germanic languages, three
of which he speaks fluoritly, he
has also devoted a great deal of
attention to Semotics. In fact, he
Was at one time in doubt as to
the particular course of study he
would pursue, whether -the for
mer or the latter. After duo con
sideration of the question he de
cided for Germanics, in tho study
of which he distinguished him
self during his college years.
Mr. Aloxis was born in York,
Neb., but lias lived with his pa
rents in New Jorsoy, Florida and
later in Michigan.
From the fall of 1905 t6 the
spring of 1907 Mr. Alexis was a
student of tho University .of
Michigan. During the school
year 1907-08 ho was a teacher of
modern languages in tho Coeur
d 'Alone college, Idaho. This in
stitution is governed by the Co
lumbia "conference of the Swed
ish Lutheran church, and special
attention is given to the study of
the Swedish language. The same

year, in the fall, Mr. Alexis
entered Augustana college, Rock
Island, 111. The institution is con-t
trolled by the Swedish Lutheran
church and is the largest of its
kind. While at Augustana, Mr.
Alexis distinguished himself as n
student of Germanic languages
(including Swedish and Dano
Norwogian). lie was one of tho
most active members of the
Deutsche Gesellschaft and was
honored with election to member
ship in the Svcnska Vitterhcts
sallskapet, perhaps the most noted
society in the country organized
for the study of Swedish litera
turo and culture. In 1905 Mr.
Alexis graduated from the insti
tution with the highest honors.
In the fall of 1908 Mr. Alexis

STRENUOUS KEYS.
Tale of Adventure of "Missing
Bunch,
After a strenuous trip from
Boston to Lincoln through the
U. S. mails, a rest of several
weeks in a postal box at station
A, an investigation by a practi-,
cal detective, and a speedy trip
from Lincoln to Now York, a
hunch of keys will reach its own
er at 60 Wnll street, New York
This is the same 'bunch of 'keys
which fell out of a mail bag at
station A about three weeks ago.
A metal tag which was engraved,
"T, E. Chappoll, University of
Nebraska, " was the only clue
which Detective E. E. Anderson
had to work on. He turned to
tho alumni directory, found the
name of Mr. Chappell, wrote o
hasty note to the gentleman in
question and anxiously awaited
the reply which ho felt confident
would soon Teach -thocityr A
wait qf seven 'days more or less.
and tho answer arrived.
Tho letterhead contained the
business address of "T. E. Chap
pell, 60 Wall Street, New York,
Electrical Machinery and Sup
plies." By referring to the uni
versity alumni directory, Ander
son discovered that Chappell had
graduated With tho class of 1891,
and upon an investigation of the
telephone direotory he learned
that some of Chappell 's name
sakes lived in the city. He called
up the number. Not a voice -answered
the phono. Hence the let
ter to New York and the reply.
The keys are now speeding
across thq continent in a mail
bag. If tho mails are not de
layed Chappell should receive the'
prodigals very soon, as they left
Lincoln yesterday.
