RETARDING THE CORNHUSKER Progress on the 1919 Cornhusker Annual is being delayed by the half-interest taken in the publication by juniors and seniors. To date but 125 juniors out or a class of 350, have answered the call for pictures. The seniors are doing little better. Can it be that the upperclasses of the university mean to defeat the purpose 'of their college year book? The success of a publication such as the Corn husker depends upon the active support of all students. Without that support the toil of the editorial staff is wasted. The Cornhusker is the one keepsake and souvenir in memory of our student life that is treasured after the passing of college days. In this volume, are included all the important events of the college year, the activities of the campus, the traditions that cling to our university, and above all, the photographs of our college chums and acquaintances. It is this last item, that will add interest and senti ment to the book, long after the other factors are forgotten. Real izing this, every junior and senior in the university should rally to the call for pictures, and should add his or her bit to the successful completion of the 1919 Cornhusker. The time limit on the individual pictures base been, extended for five days, giving those who have been indifferent to the many urgent requests for pictures, another chance. The leniency of the editor acords a final opportunity for the tardy ones to get through under the wire. - WAR AND REGISTRATION Registration statistics from the ofliee of the Registrar give very little encouragement to those who entertained hopes of a bumper crop of new freshmen this semester. Many of the S. A. T. C. boys who promised to return to the University for the second semester, have not kept faith. No doubt the "call of the job" has wielded too strong an influence upon them. The brief stay at the University of Nebraska proved a disappointment. But it is not for Nebraskans to feel that the responsibility for this rests upon them. The student soldiers had no opportunity to become acquainted with our school under the more favorable cir cumstances of peace times. The martial atmosphere screened from view the phases of our institution that most of the older students have learned to appreciate. The registration figures show a decided drop from those of last semester. It is to be expected that such would he the case so -soon after the ending of the war. Men have not yet had time to get into th swing of civilian life, and it Is difficult for ex-soldiers to confine themselves to the "old grind." Perhaps within six months they will all realize, as many have already done, that life is after all a grim reality and that the daily bread must be earned. Then the benefits of college education will be magnified, and our fighting men will asssume the role of student. It is the task of the present student body to "carry on" until such time as the soldiers shall decide to return, and increase the enrollment to the customary 3,000 or more. Just when college professors are about to be thrust into the lime light some unknown, and unheralded statistician comes forth with the facts and figures to. prove that of the thirty-seven thousand col lege professors in this country, only twenty-seven have been un patriotic during" the war. This highly agreeable piece of news places the pedagogue back in his former position of a mild sort of person.

PHILISOPHY OF EDUCATION Professor Bentley offers a one-hour lecture course in the philosophy of col legiate education on Saturday morn ings at -9 o'clock in room 109. Library. It may be taken for credit by ad vanced students in philosophy or edu cation, but all interested are heartily welcome. The hour will be fully occu pied by the lectures in developing cer tain aspects of the philosophy, pysch ology and pedagogy of the collegiate part of the university, but time may be found for questions and discussion at another hour (8 or 10) on Satur days, if desired. Particular attention is eiven to the relations of secondary uii.i hie her nedaeoKV. Any one who will read Dewey's Democracy and Ed ucation An Introduction to the Phil osophy of Education will be specifi callv prepared for the course. Follow ing Is the technical theme under which this philosophy is applied to the Col lege, and a summary of its argument Individual Project in the Liberal Col lege Summary Collegiate teaching implies an instl tion devoted to the intellectual growth of selected students. Ml aaencles and instrumentalities of collegiate teaching may be appraised n terms of a philosophy of thinking and learning to think. Problems ot organization and administration arise in subordination to this issue. Mature thinking is individual in its haractcr. This differentiates col legiate aim from that of lower scnoois. The course, syllabus, textbook. lab oratory organization, are i"""' rather than learning., devices. Think ing does not 'take place without pur- nose in the thinker. The student must have problems. "Project" is the type of the student's problem. "A science scarcely becomes a students promem. CAPT. FRANKFORTER BEGINS WORK HERE (Continued from page 1) there will be enough men to mak a regiment of twelve companies. Tenta tive plans now indicate that the com panies will be organized . tomorrow. Officers and non-commissioned officers will be appointed at a later date. Uniforms May Be- issued Captain Drake recently received a j query from the inspector of the cen tral division asking about uniforms and equipment on hand here. Indica tions are that arrangements re being made for clothing and equipping the men as soon as possible. At present, Lieutenant Hotchkiss, quartermaster for the S. A. T. C. unit, has between three and four hundred wool uniforms on hand. These may be issued to the R. O. T. C. men at a . later date. No rifles of the. kind de sired are available here. Plans for the proposed artillery unit here are still incomplete. It is prob able, however, that this feature of the military work will be arranged.later in the semester if a sufficient number of men are signed for military work. "A DOLL HOUSE" TO BEi GIVEN BY UNI. STUDENTS (Continued from-Page One) feel the responsibility of a mother. For eight years she lived this way with her husband. Then something hap pened. Through her great love for her husband she put herself under financial obligations which she could not meet. Thus she fell under the power of an unscrupulous man. Through it all she had the vision of how her husband, when he learned the truth, would shield her hoy "the miracle of miracles" would happen WtVui.I. etaiid out ill Three kinds of project are distin guished: (a) elemenatry and earlier secondary-social and co-operative m type; (b) the senior collegiate project Individual, but specializing; (c) the junior collegiate project indidual, but liberalizing, general rather than spe cializing; organically synthetic, ratner than scientifically analytls-strictly an educative project. Problem is the psychological key to thinking, implying (a) doubt, (b) in vestigation. -Problem is the metnou of thinking." Project is the pedagogical form of "problem." The cognitive, affective, and active asnects of project yield the pedagogi cal correlates, "context," "cycle," and "activity attitude." Cultural, individual project gives ed ucational coherency to collegiate ped agogy. Student's projects are the tests and proof of courses. The pedagogy of project yields precepts of collegiate learning. Major J. P. Westerman, ex '00. vis ited at the Phi Delta Theta house Sunday. Major Westerman entered the- second O. T.
