WISDOM.
Wisdom is the principal thing;
therefore, get wisdom; and with all
thy getting get understanding.

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.

who deserved honor, victor Haiugan

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-

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.

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."

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.
