SOCIALISM AND WAR.
The Springfield Republican, is not a
Socialist publication. Perish the
thought! It is a conservative paper,
but willing to give credit where credit
is due. - In a recent editorial it said,
in part:
"But, in regard to war. Socialism is
plainly on the right track, whether or
not it could ever be realized fully in
the Industrial organizations of so
ciety. At two points it strikes heav
ily at the foundations of the world's
militarism. First, it embodies the
principle of internationalism as op
posed to nationalism, and the princi
ple of human solidarity as opposed to
race hatred. ... It begins by
wiping out nationalities and creating
a political federation of the states.
. . . Socialism would create in Eu
rope a great state having no aggres
sively imperialistic or militarist basis,
and thus It would obliterate those bit
ter nationalistic passions which have
been responsible for so many wars
periodically drenching the continent's
soil with human blood.
"'Slav against Teuton. 'Latin
against Anglo-Saxon 'Caucasian
against Mongolian 'white against
black,' all the catchword coinage of
the fierce race conflicts of the world,
find in Socialism a consistent foe.
This 'Slav peril,' which forms the
staple excuse of the Austro-German
alliance in precipitating the present
war, shrivels to nothing under Social
Ism's analysis, for are not Slavs hu
man nd have they not built up a
civilization and have they not pro
duced great men and women who
have enriched the world's culture?"
The Socialists, it is true, have no
patent on Ihese ideas. These views
have been the gist of the thoughts of
many men and women of all political
nations, but the Socialist party Is the
only oe that has as a party preached
them in and out of season. For this
the Socialist are entitled to much
credit and the thanks of humanity.

EXTENSION COURSES
ARE GREAT AID
Four Main Phases Comprising Courses
in All Departments Many
Study.
The Department of University Ex
tension, which seeks to supply the in
tellectual needs of the people of the
state who are unable to attend school,
Is steadily widening its field under the
able direction of Inspector A. A. Reed.
The motive of this department is not
to gain in size so much as to afford a
means by which all the people of the
state may broaden themselves intel
lectually, no matter where they are.
Anyone who can fill a few simple
entrance requirements may register in
this department upon payment of a
nominal fee. It is divided into four
main classes, namely, correspondence
study, lectures, debating and public
discussion, and general information
and welfare.
The correspondence study consists
of a study of various branches just as
if one were in school, by reading the
necessary textbooks and wri'ing pa
pers or exercises on the work. These
lessons are sent to the director of
University Extension, corrected and
returned to the pupil. Examinations
also are conducted through the aid of
county superintendents and high
school principals. There are branches
from almost every college of the Uni
versity included in the list of courses
studied in this way.
The instruction by lectures means
that various members of the faculty
will, on request and the payment of
actual expenses, make engagements to
deliver addresses in any of the towns
in the state.
The debating and public discussion
is carried on by issuing bulletins
throughout the state discussing the
various questions of public interest
This department is materially aided
by the Nebraska High School Debat
ing League, organized by Prof. M. M.
Fogg of the Department of Rhetoric,
in 1908.
Through the General Information
and Welfare department valuable as
sistance is rendered to thousands of
people in the state. Its purpose is, to
quote Professor Caldwell, "to investi
gate all problems artistic, literary.
historical, social, industrial, moral,
political, educational, problems of
sanitation, city lighting, sewerage,
banking crisis, money, divorce, etc.
in fine, all problems that may concern
the citizens of Nebraska.

HOWARD AT END.

proper way to play their positions,
they were allowed to scrimmage, the
second team kicking off to the varsity.
Then began a march toward th goal,
that was a revelation to the fans who
had watched the skim-milk efforts of
the squad during the first few weeks.
There was no fumbling, no hesitation,
but at the call of the signal the nttwi
sprang to their places, and a moment
later, plunged through the opposition
like a rock from a catamount no, not
a catamount, a catapult, that's it. a
catapult. Even after the freshmen took
the place of the yannigans the first
team found little difficulty in carrying
the ball for long gains. However, the
vounesters got sweet revenge when
they were given the ball on the varsity
fifteen yard line and invited to go to
it. Go to it they did, and with such
vigor that they scored in four downs.
Then they repeated the performance
in two trials. However, Cameron, Hal
ligan. Chamberlain, Howard, and per
haps two or three other regulars, had
been takn out to make way for subs.

County Organizations in Kansas.
Organization of county clubs by
the Student Council is proceeding
slowly. Up to this time five counties.
Smith. Jewell, Leavenworth, Douglas
and- Wilson, have met and made plans
to work for better things at the Uni-
ersity. Several other counties will
bold meetings and get into working
order within the next few days.
Several students from any county
that is yet unorganized can meet and
form a club independent of the Council
and later can get help and literature
from the Councilman who has charge
of the work In that county. A number
of the counties in the western part
of the state from which there are only
a few students attending the Univer
sity may combine and form a short
grass club as was done two years ago.
