Entered at the postofflce at Lincoln, Nebraska, as second-class mall matter under the act of Congress of March 3, 1S70. The Dally Nebraskan offers this dia gram for those who failed to under stand an editorial of December 21: Professor Fogg's work in journalism has been so successful that' in Uni versity circles to think of Journalism is to think of Professor Fogg. His work with the Four-Minute men and the recognition that he received from the government has been gratifying to the whole .University that his name at once suggests patriotism. "A hint to Nebraska" to follow in the footsteps of another University that had dismissed its professor of Journalism for lack of patriotism struck The Daily Nebraskan as comic. The entire University smiled at the suggestion. If some department other than journalism had been mentioned, it might have been serious, possibly tragic. The Nebraskan acknowledges the error of its way in attempting to be facetious in war times. The error will not be repeated.' A former professor, a staunch Amer ican who felt the lire of battle, and enlisted soon after the declaration of war, who is now wearing the uniform of his country as a commissioned of ficer, and is soon to go to France, has written a remarkable letter to The Nebraskan. It contains a message which those of us who are students instead of soldiers will do well to heed. This is what ho says: "I do hope that you who are stay ing by the University in these days of war are not forgetting that you owe the country oven a greater serv ice than we who have elected to fight. If the war is for making democracy safe and to preserve it, it is your duty to make it worth saving. If ever the ' tradition of liberal scholarship needed to be kept alive It is now. What the democracy of the next generation is to be will be largely determined by you who have stood by the University. "This is a serious problem. If schol arship at the University for some of the students has no more wortu than it seemed to have before the war, they are doing the cause we are fighting for the most serious of injuries. While we work here to preserve, you must work equally hard to make the thing worth preserving." on tho various fronts no longor deal to any such extent as in tho past witn umirin combats, man to man. This moans that aerial warfaro, liko that on land, has dovoloped in an unex pected direction and is fast losing Us picturesque and romantic foaturcs. Tim aviators nowadays do compara tively little of the solitary hunting for solitary antagonists that gave them fame as "aces." Instead thoy work in carofully organized groups, tho mem mrs of which are expected to show not independence and initiative but tho ability to carry out witn exacmesH plans minutely laid out for them by superiors who never quit the ground Each member of the group has an assigned part and placo in its opera tions, and usually thoy are divided, some flying at a great height, some at a modorato one, and tho rest up only a few hundred feet. In other words, thoy have "flanks," Just as do terres trial lighters, but tho flanks aro up and down, not at right and loft. Thoy must be guarded none tho less on that account and sometimes they aro "turned," with tho familiar disastrous results. Aviation has become a "service like another, and its principle is co operation. Thence will come military results, but not much, or at any rate not so much, of fame for individual aviations. The New York Times. Announce Apple Judging Contest at Farm campus An annle Judging contest for stu dents will be held during organized agriculture week beginning January 14. onen to all students In the school nr rnlletre of agriculture. The prizes offered are three silver loving cups, one for individual excellence In plate judging, one for individual excellence In package judging and one for the best all round Judging. HOME ECONOMICS STUDENTS TO EXHIBIT CONSERVATION (Continued from Page One) the first year food study will take turns in helping at the booths and will help arrange the exhibits. The organized agriculture exhibit corresponds to the farmers' congress of other states. The exhibits will be open every day until 9 o'clock and the displays at the different booths will be explained. The Nebraska home economics as sociation will be in session at the same time. Meetings will be held in R. 306 Agriculture hall. STUDENTS OF FRENCH HOLD "FETE" PARTY UNIVERSITY ANNANIAS CLUB Dame Rumor is smiling at us from all points on the campus these days. One person has inside information that the university coal won't last un til morning because residents of Co lumbus have seized the entire supply, while another person knows from ab solutely reliable sources that the uni versity has 50 more carloads than are needed for the entire winter and Is trying to sell the surplus. Again comes the rumor that so many men arj leaving college each day to enlist that the university can't stay open until June, while another Tumor states that school will be pro longed into the summer. In a recent issue of the Independent it was advocated that everyone make it his duty to run down all war ru mors and then publish the names of those who started the rumors as an Ananias club. Such a practice might work well at v Ohio State. Find the original source of each campus rumor you hear and then start an Ananias roll call in the Lantern. Of course there is one drawback. The number of names published might increase with such rapidity that some of our choicest scandal-mongers would find the club not exclusive enough for their membership. The Ohio State Lantern. AVIATION HAS LOST ITS ROMANCE Attentive readers of the war news must have noticed that the dispatches describing the work of the aviators (Continued from page one.) Is Fourth Soirie Francaise This is the fourth Soiree Francaise, the first being given last exactly a year before, as a Fete des Rois. This was a much more elaborate affair but was no more enjoyable than the "war time" party of this year. Over forty were present. The second party was a Hallowe en party where Miss Isabelle Thomas told fortunes in French and the play "Le Capuchon Rouge," Red Riding Hood, was given. Before the Christmas vacation, a Christmas party was given when everyone took a five-cent toy and Santa Claus distributed them im partially. These toys were later sent to the Orthopedic hospital for Christmas day. It is the intention of the French department to have thees parties the first Saturday evening of each month to encourage conversational French. The programs will all be given in re lation to some French fete day and many interesting customs will bo shown at this time when spoken French is becoming so popular, these parties offer unusual opportunities to try one's skill among others' equally unskilled and all who have attended the parties have been surprised at the ease with which they can converse.

Comus Club Dance Rosewilde Friday ILLUSTRATED ART LECTURE AT CONVOCATION TODAY (Continued from Page One) Jonas Lie. Lie is noted as a portrayer of industrial life. He has recently given an exhibition in New York of scenes around and in a copper mine. Each of his pictures is valued at $2,000. The first, "Palms in the Wind," painted in Panama, is a strik ing example of conveying of motion by picture. His "The Harbor," Is a good illustration of his treatment of the sea, one of his favorite subjects, "The Winter Afternoon," showB a frozen stream, snowbanks, and an overcast sky. Yarrows "The Reflection," is inter esting because it was painted from the reflection in a mirror. Single admission to the exhibit is 25 cents.
