The April Mid-West Quarterly
With the recent appearance of the
April issue of the Mid-West Quarterly,
that periodical approaches the close
of its second year. Its success as a
literary venture is already assured.
While still, as is appropriate, largely
filled with contributions from the fac
ulty of the institution behind it, it has
drawn others from many different
sources, and of a quality that speaks
well for the appreciation it has
aroused elsewhere.
If its previous numbers have seemed
lather academic after all not a very
harfch criticism for a review published
in academic precincts the present
number is valiantly up to the minute
with Blx of the seven articles-that
make it up devoted to the war, and
the seventh devoted, with Borne fine
malice, to certain aspects of socialism
If the Mid-West is to be criticised
it Bhould be brought to task in the
present Issue at least for not having
an editorial section. Such utterances
as would occur there might, to be sure,
mar somewhat of the Impersonal calm
and dignity that no academic inaga
zlne should be without. And for the
usual range of Mid-West Biibjects per
haps Buch a department would, after
all. be superfluous. But this is a war
number. And to feel that there is
anyone person, staff, committee, or
board Bitting calmly in our midst and
not, amid protests of neutral upright
ness, leaning angularly in one direc
tion or another, is a spectacle that is
profoundly unamerican.
Such a criticism of the Mid-West
editors, however, may not te wholly
deserved. Perhaps thy do lean. Four
of the six war articles are plainly fa-
rorable to the Allies. "The Diplomatic
Background of the European War," by
Bernadotte E. Schmitt; "Colonial
Aspects of the War," by C. D.'Allin;
Canada and the War," by J. E. Le
Rossignol, and "Some Legal Aspects
the iSvasicn ' of &c!'um,' by
Charles Sumner Allen, lean to the Eng
lish side of the dispute. "The Ideal of
Peace," by S. B. Gass has one or two
protests against the American attitude
to Germony, bat is, on the whole, a
defense of all the warring nations
against the loose thinking of jthe
pacifists. "German Versus English
Aggression," by A. D. Schrag Is the
only one, of the six that attempts a
defense of the German cause.
On examination the number turns
out to be fairly representative of
American opinion on the wholft.
largely English in tone, and sympathy,
with an occasional lonely voice raised
in behalf of the Teutons.
HUNDRED DOLLAR VER
DICT FOR HESS AND AGOR
Young Attorneys Win Initial Legal
Battls Against Weil-Known
Lawytr - -
The youthful law firm, Harvey Hess
and Hugh Agor, Juniors in the College
of Law. succeeded In winning a one-hundred-dollar
verdict in a case which
they prosecuted In O. B. Clark's jus
tice court, Friday afternoon.
The action was against the J. C.
Orcuit News Company for breach of
contract in refusing to pay for 2,500
State Fair programs purchased from
Ralph Northrup and Russell Clark in
1913. Against the- plaintlff'slalm for
two hundred dollars the defendant
counter-claimed for one hundred and
fifty-seven dollars. The plaintiffs at
torneys succeeded in proving that the
counter-claim was Invalid, and the
Jury rendered judgment for $100 on
their claim against OrcutL
The attorney for the defense was
George L. DeLacy of the well-known
Lincoln firm, Holmes & DeJacy.
Although this is the Initial appear
ance of the Hess & Agor firm before
the bar of Justice, they say that' they
have several other paseB in view
They admit, however, that their law
business will probably not detain
them In Lincoln the entire summer..

. enct Simmon Retains the
Hurdle Championship
Nebraska now holds two American
records in track athletics for girls

Track for girls is becoming more
popular each year, bo few can make
class ' teams even of the really good
players. Then there is a large num
ber of those who come out just for
the fun and exercise. These need
only to be given a few directions as
to the form of the various events and
they can practlceas much and as long
as they are allowed to. Many a girl
of fine ability In track work has been
discovered in just, such a ay.
