A CHANCE FOR NEBRASKA
Tfce defeat of Syracuae by Indiana last Saturday shows that even
the eastern champions are not invincible. In indicates that the Oiange
eleven has a weakness which, if the Cornhuskers can locate and over
come it, may mean victory for Nebraska.
The fall of the easterners on the first lap of their western jourjley.
however, is dangerous to Nebraska's chances. Humbled in their first
game, they are coming to Lincoln all the more determined to xia.
The etlng of one defeat will take away the acute attack of overconfi
dent for which the team paid the penalty at Indiana.
Taking it all In all. the situation relative to the Thanksgiving game
should give the Cornhuskers an even break. It ought to give Ne
braska confidence, but not overconfidence. It means that the Orange
will have to play the type of football which won the eastern cham
pionship in order to triumph over the west.
KEEPING ONE'S EQUILIBRIUM
One of the marks of true greatness and real worth of an indivM
ual Is the manner in which he receives honors which are thrust upou
him by his associates. Many men and women who happen to re
ceive some unusual honor or signal mark of attention from their
associates lese their poise and begin to attribute qualities to them
selves which make them think that they are really better than they
are. They affect an air f superciliousness and snobbishness towards
those ef their former acquaintance because of this fancied superiority
of theirs. This Is especially true on a college eampus. Hardly a
generation of students passes but what this same kind of thing is
repeated in scores of instances. Students have honors thrust upon
them or succeed to a particular class office, then suddenly become
inflated with a sense of their own worth to the community. Many
men, who ia the firBt year or two of their college career were thought
of as good fellows by their classmates, lose the esteem of their Al
lows because of this reason.
The same thing is true in the case of certain women, who because
of certain little traits in their personality become to receive more at
tention here at college than they were accustomed to in their own
home town, no longer accord the same little courtesies and considera
tion to other folks as they were wont to do before they attained their
popularity.
Then some day comes the bitter awakening to the truth thai tney
are not what they have seemed to themselves but mere humans and
of a very mediocre type at that. Many individuals never come to re
alize such a thing which is to their misfortune.
Alter all the Individual who really counts Is the one who ooes
not allow the events of the passing moment to tun his head and to
overestimate his worth Purdue Exponent
BUILDING FROM THE TOP DOWW
One of the chief criticisms with the American educational systems
is that they have been built from the top down instead of from the
bottom up. The purely scholastic mind has been the goal rather than
the practical mind so developed as to meet the ordinary problem- m
everyday life. In the past the grade school curriculums have been ar
ranged primarily to fit the pupil for the secondary or high school and
the high school work has been mere preparation for college work.
Too frequently the young man or woman graduated from college with
high honors ia actually fitted for nothing except to teach that which is
directly connected with the individual's educational experiences.
It Is only in recent years that any progress haa been made ir. fit
ting the student to meet the practical problem of life. Evea no
there is much for improvement in. this matter and it la only fair to
the teachers and professors to say that the blame lies largely with the
parent and children. The idea of sending a young man to high school
or college to make Mm a good workman, and subsequently, a better
citizen, is eldom foremost In the parent's mind. America's colleges,
broadly speaking, are filled with young men whose fathers were denied
the opportunities of such an education and these fathers, hopmg 10
,cive their sons advantage which they as young men did not have,
unwittingly sent these son off to college to learn bow to be dandies,
or at the best, master of certain branchea of human knowledge wnica
are removed from everyday experiences by a chasm so broaC mat
the average young man finds bis education virtually useless.
Thi I not to disparage the study of science, philosophy, art and
the other necessary subjects with which one must acquaint bimt-eif
in order to recive a eoIJe diploma. But a whole chest of tools will
not help a man build a boue if he does not know bow to use tue
tool, and unless a jourg man or woman knows how to u?e the knowl
edge obtained in the bolution of practical problems, the education Las
no more value than any other luxury. Lincoln Star.
