Newa Editor
WHERE IS NEBRASKA?
The following editorial appeared In the University Daily Kansan
under the caption, "Why Not Kansas Too?" It tells how the Uni
versity of Missouri provides for its school of journalism. The article
speaks for itself.
"The University of Missouri has the first complete newspaper
plant in the world built solely for a school of journalism. The
building with its equipment will cost $SO,000. It will include
class rooms for the classes In journalism, a press, a sereotyping
outfit, and other equipment. The composing room will be en
closed in glass, affording a complete view of the mechanical
production of a newspaper from the outside. There will be a
mailing room, a room for newsboys, a photo engraving laboratory,
and a storeroom.
"The offices of the members of 'the Journalism faculty and
the student managers will be on the first floor. Besides the
business office of the Evening Missourian there will be a city
room with a telegraph and telephone alcove, coneference rooms,
reading room, library, morgue and wash rooms.
"The advertising department will be quartered on the third
floor and the remainder of this floor will be used as an audi
torium. "We are not going to rave on but read this carefully and
then come over and see our little lean-to."
The University of Kansas at least appears to have a "lean-to."
Nebraska has two antiquated rooms in University hall devoted to its
department of journalism. They are crowded and poorly lighted.
No classrooms adapted for classroom instruction in journalism are
provided.
The Evening Missourian, official student publication at the Uni
versity of Missouri, occupies a large part of the journalism building.
Compare this to Nebraska, The three largest publications, the Daily
Nebraskan, the Cornhusker and the Awgwan are quartered in a
tiny office room, not larger tfian twenty by twenty-five feet, in the
basement of U Hall.
Missouri's equipment for journalism cost $80,000. Nebraska's
outlay barely exceeds $100. Nebraska compares favorably with other
schools in different branches of work. Why is it so lax and so in
ferior in providing for a school of journalism?
A college editor at the University of Iowa has blithley suggested
that the "Stagg" party the Iowa football team attended at Chicago
last Saturday had a "kick" in it. ,
"STUNTS" VINDICATED
"Stunts" . have been charged with being harmful to appreciation
of the more serious things of life. The advertising of a "stunt" at
every casual gathering is looked upon askance by those who harp
on the degeneracy of the times.
College students have perhaps been singled out as the most fla
grant offenders, but out of justice to those undergoing a formative
period that demands more recreation than later years it should be
remerabered that the adult world is wild with the craze for musical
comedy. Serious drama hardly receives enough support to warrant
its production. The desire for unusual feats among the students is
merely a reflection of the tendency of their elders.
f
The objectors to this craving for the novel should not overlook
. the good points possessed by "stunts." Laughter Is the best pro
ducer of good feeling and unity of sentiment "Stunts," whether
good or bad, usually stir up this form of expression in any group and
n this way act as saving graces in a world of turmoiL With all the
irritation and impatience that can be sensed in the air, social unrest
would be even greater were it not for the fact that once in a while
this great country laughs from coast to coast. In addition to skits
and farces, there are comic supplements, world series games, foot
ball contests and humorous magazines, all of which serve as safety
valves for pent-up feelings.
Originality is another of the points favoring "stunt" produc
tion. Their conception and planning affords more mental develop
ment than resorting to commonplace and well-worn methods of
enterVInmenL Of course there is a danger that we may become too
blaw If we cannot always find something new, but it seems to be a
thoroughly proven trait of human nature that there are times when
we enjoy the absence of the sensational as well as its presence.

announced today. Tiie purpose of the
week will be the endeavor to start
the country off in the New Year with
a sound financial program for every
individual and household. Two ends
are sought. First, that the condition

Eteond, that the financial and indus
trial strength of the nation be in
creased by the great sums of capital
which will accrue through the prac
tice of steady saving and safe invest
ment on the part of citizens.
The program for National Thrift
Week, as at present tentatively
planned, is as follows:
Natioaal Thrift' Day, Saturday, ou
uary 17, 1920. To enlist the Nation
in a campaign to "Save first and spend
afterwards." In other words, to stick
resolutely to the program of makmg
the present 'insure the future by the
regular saving and investment of some
t.art of every pay envelope to finance
future opportunities or needs; to in
vest savings safely, preferably in loss-
proof government securities; to curb
the profiteer by demanding a dollars'
worth of goods for every dollar spent.
Thrift Sunday, January 18. Ser
mons in all American pulpits on the
relation of economic life to religious
well-being, and the need of sharing
with others.

&nd labor.

She will have interest mi:

Interested in clothes, the
tricks and turns of fashion
which make them individual
and yes, just a wee hit

That's one of the reasons
why she pounced with such

SALE OF SUITS
AND DRESSES
"Imagine getting a $55 trice
tine and tricolette dress for a
third less!"
The gossip saw it yesterday
on a rack full of other equally
good looking frocks at the same
reductions. It was navy blue
and had the best looking em
broidery on it in black and gold,
at the places where the materi
als were combined. And then
there were Georgette dresses
taffeta frock s good-looking
black ones, and well just about
any kind of a silk dress you
could use all at one-third less.
But better still was another
group of dresses at
HALF PRICE
Tricolette, Georgette, satin,
crepe de chine most any kind
of silk and in Just about every
fashionable color. Really, girls,
they're worth looking over all
sizes, too.
AND THE SUITS
Sixty-two of them all late win

HALF PRICE
Suits of peachblooiu, velour,
tlwseltone, silvertone, velour,
checks, trlcotine and heather
mixtures. Some fur-trimmed,
and others with collars to per

Plenty of them are in the pop

blue trlcotine suit from the col

well into the spring.
