Wisdom is the principal thing; therefore, get wisdom; and with all thy getting get understanding. Proverbs. witnessed never )iave I been so Im pressed, so thrilled, as I was last No vember at the Kansas game. The thing that thrilled me so was that famous K. U. yell the Jayhawk chant. It has that wietd, monotonous tone that sinks into you and thrilli- your very soul. Think of two thousand students rising and putting their whole' souls into it. What is it that causes them to do it? Its their school spirit, inspired by that wierd, wild yell. Have you ever heard that wonder ful Princeton Tiger yell? If not, imagine the K. U. yell, make it five times as thrilling and you are begin nlng to get an inkling of the volume of that yell and the impression it makes upon you. Now, to come back to Nebraska. What have we here? Two yells that we can use are all we can boast of; and they what are they? Time-hon ored yells no more. Outside of that they are of no value, because they do not portray real Nebraska spirit nor Nebraska environments. The thing tbat we need is a real, sure enough, wild and wooly Nebraska yell. One that brings us thoughts of Indians in war paint,, cowboys, and wild and woolv things In general. Not that we have such things in Nebraska, hut we used to have, and many people think vet. With a few yells of that type that are novel and awe inspiring we can create a greater Ne braska spirit and help Nebraska make a bigger mark in the school world. So Jet us all enter into this contest for the prize offered by the Athletic Board for the best yell, and lets make it a yell, a real Nebraska yell, one that brings forth thoughts of Indians, and men who are going to do or die, Yours for a greater Nebraska spirit, BEETEE. VICTOR HALLIGAN. Editor Dally Nebraskan. Honor ought to be given to those who deserved honor, victor Haiugan is not a politician, but a man who has won honor and fame for the Univer sity on the football field.

A son of the Kaiser recently tele- cranbed his father: "Papa: God has; been good to me. He has permitted me to be wounded in the leg in my country's cause." IDEALISM AND BUSINESS. It is difficult for us younger men to comprehend the .changed ideals of the business world. We can measure it best by comparing the personalities of leaders fifteen years ago and now- Then the successful railroad mag nate was known for his contempt for law, his ability to exploit the public, and his harsh and indifferent treat ment of employees. idpnlifim is abroad. A 1UUUJ uvu - spirit of partnership with public and employees. Watch a railroad leader enrh as Howard Elliott. He tries to obey the law in every particular. He recognizes and practices the doctrine that the railroads are run for the benefit of the public. And instead of treating his employees as so many iron machines to be thrown into the scrap pile when worn out, Elliott seeks their confidence and co-operation. The conduct of modern business is responding to human ideals as well as to the cold laws of political econ omy; and who knows but that the new policy, even financially, will be as profitable as the old. DR. HARTLEY BURR ALEXANDER student publications and here he be gan his career as a writer.. Upon graduation from Nebraska he received a fellowship in the University of Penn sylvania and later in Columbia Univer sity, which institution conferred on toim the degree of Doctor of Philos ophy in 1901.

NEBRASKA MAN TO FRONT AT STANFORD Arthur G.'Kennady Instructor in Eng lish Philology Received A. B. at Nebraska. THE FORUM To the Editor of Daily Nebraskan: I have been a student in the Uni versity of Nebraska for over two years and a resident of Lincoln for nearly six. During that time I have attended very nearly all of the foot ball games and a great many of tho other athletic contests. Also during those six years I have had the pleas ure of visiting several other large schools and witnessing athletic con tests of all descriptions. During all of the games that I have In a letter to Professor Grummann of this city, we are informed of the success of another one of tWa many men who have gone forth from this great University of Nebraska. The man upon who fortune has smiled this time Is Arthur G. Kennady, of Palo Alto, California. Mr. Ken nady will no doubt be remembered by many formter and present university students. Aften going from Nebraska and finishing his course he left for Leland Stanford University to take up work there. Since his sojourn there he has secured a Ph. D. degree and is at present acting instructor in English Philology at Leland Stanford. He Is also assisting Dr. FJugel of that Insti tution In his work upon the Chaucer Dictionary. He is practically assured of a permanent position at Leland Stanford. Many of Mr. Kennady's friends will bo glad to know of his success. He is one of the host of men who have tone out from Nebraska and brought credit to his Alma Mater and himself. It is from the records of such men that- the students of the University can proudly hold up their heads and say, "We jgo to Nebraska." Loeb's Orchestra, L-9896. 325 No. 17.

From Oberlln Review. The; Oberlln football season will open Saturday afternoon; when Var sity meets Miami University. Warned by past experience with this team, and by reports from the south, Coach Pyle Is by no means preparing for a practice game. In all probability tho contest will be one of the stlffest of the year, and Oberlln will have to show mid-season style to win. Miami already has a 40-0 victory over Otterbeln to Its credit, and the OtterbeJn cQaches are not claiming a poor .team. Talk with Ludwlg about your clothes. 1028 O. Scott's Orchestra, B-4521.
