THE FINISH.
The vacation jiiHt passed lias been
n break in I be -form, so to speak. It
enabled tlme sho were so inclined to
catcli up in back work It has made
it possible lor some lew practical jok
ers lo studs' a week or so in advance,
tlien bae ihe ;nit;h on tbeir toiling
classmates It appealed to the ma
jority because it meant a half month
of rest, interspersed with joous tango
piirlie-, days of idleness, and wee,
Hina' bouts.
There ale four weeks of this first
semester rtinainiim, and they will be
busy weeks. They are the finish of
the semester's effort And just as the
race lias been run, so will it be fin
ished. Those who have conserved
their sirength and have run wisely will
find no difficulty in crossing the tape,
represented by l lit final examinations.
Others will make a frantic effort and
cross over nearly exhausted. Some
will not cross at all. Where do you
belong?
WE WANT ROOM.
In another pane of this issue we are
presenting the statement of a consid
ered ehange from the four-column to
the five-column style. This statement
is still somewhat previous, inasmuch
as the publication board has not yet
passed upon the merits of the sug
gestion. Hut even before the board
has met, there should be an expres
sion of student sentiment oer the
change. Not so much as to whether
the students would like to see such
a change, but whether they will sup
port it. Hast experience has proven,
to tho bitter disappointment of busi
ness managers, that the management
of a five-column dally on the cam
pus Is not to be taken lightly. Ad
vertising hnB failed in paBt years to
provide for this desired change, but
a long line of business managers has
worked to finally place a fair-sized
sheet permanently before the student
public. One lesson which experience
has taught, further, is that an increase
in the subscription list does not nec
essarily follow an increase in the size
of the sheet. It is this lesson which
we hope to disprove now, for we be
lieve that the financial condition or
the paper, with generous student back
ing, can support the change.
It is not necessary to dwell upon
the advantages which lie in the larger
paper. Increased reading space, a bet
ter balanced appearance to the entire
sheet, and unlimited room to cover
the many fields of student activity
can be met in the five columns. On
the other hand, an increased cost per
isue, the absolute need for adequate
advertising, and essentially a greatly
increased subscription list must be
met. It is "up to" the students who
read the "Hag"- whether it be their
own or their neighbor's to take a
hand in this question. Those who
would discountenance the change
should express their views, together
with those of the friends of the move
ment, through the medium of the
"Forum." The Nebraskan will try any
thing, do anything that the readers re
quest. And the publication board
would be greatly enlightened on the
question if the subscribers will state
their case. We want room, but we
want you to help us get it.
