A forum nrticlo in yesterday's No brnBknn by a soiuowhat eminent critic toomoaned tho fact that tho editorial columns havo been used In treating things "lamentably shallow." Tho Ideal of tho collogo paper which Is to puff up everything wiiotnor lfTT gaodtj. or bad was alBO sot forth In scholarly form. Thoro was a clover picking of phrases hdro and thoro that demon strated great Intellectual ability and nlBo put n different meaning Into tho protended quotation. However, no Get Under $2i50 HAT i4is o st harm Is done since tho Nebraskan is square against this "mingling with follows" our learned critic talks about on tho library stops. It hinders thoso who wish to go in and out of tho building. Tho policy of the Nebraskan Is to remain unchanged for all that. It will still boost Nobraska by attempting to mako It a more worthy Institution In calling attention to matters that need correction. A collogo paper exists for practical purposes. It Is not an ngency by which a soothing Balvo 1b rubbed on tho woimds of tho wrong doer; neither Is It a hot air pump to carry on a wind-Jamming campaign to mako worthless objects and nuisances ap. pear useful and beneficial. Wo would call tho learned' gentle man's attention to tho fact that his ponotratlvo mind has traveled too fast and missel a great deal In tho rapid transit. The University of Nebraska is something which is to exist perma nently and is no bubble that needs blowing up. .Neither is the Nebraskan an. advertising bulletin not a soft soaper. Tho university was estab lished for tho purposo of Btudy. It was Intended as a' place to cultivate tho mind. Energy and ambition are looked up to. Tho development of .the -aHjoupd, man. JsBQughL-JI!herjaaiia hops, proms, parties and dances galore to interest thoso socially inclined. But tho school is a place for work. Tho "mingling with one's fellows" (and wo infer tho mingling with feilow women) Is nil right, but it has its place. It does not belong in the library or in tho class room. Already thoro have been too many in our Institution who havo adopted tho philosopher's wisdom. They make lifo miserable for their instructors and students who havo some aim and pur pose In lifo. The hardest problem which tho colleges today havo to solve is to get young people over tho Idea that they have really come out of the kindergarten. We do not wnnt a lot of grinds in our school, nor do we desire to havo It like a military academy. What wo want is men and women who havo a high senso of self-responsibility, for whom it 1b unnecessary to pro scribe rules of conduct. We want tho pooplo -who can use discretion and j common sense, who know tho time for pleasure and tho time for work.. The "fiiBser" and the "coquette" havo n place of courso, because everything has Its placo. But civilization has reached a stage of progress and is go ing forward so rapidly that there Is lit tlo tlmo for these dummies of frivol ity. But tho world Is kind and Is will ing to let them alone. Now if they would bo equally kind' and carry on tholr operations without Injuring those who aro In collogo for business, the majority would bo very thankful In deed. Did you got a drink at tho fountain on tho campus yesterday? If you want to shake this spell of dull feeling out of your frame got out on tho cinder path and tako the medl clno prescribed by Coach Field. SOPHS RUN THE BA8E3. WayneUannlno Apppinlod.
