NEBRASKAN swallowed up In the mass and energy
of hundreds of other toners.
What this nation needs now are
small local dailies and weeklies that
load in moulding the opinions of their
community, and which command the
respect and admiration of their sub
scribers and readers. It Is up to the
small town newspaper men to develop
mighty news orpins with far-reaching
Influence. The University of Ne
braska is turning out trained news
paper men every year. The editors
and newspapers of the state should
now make it possible for these embryo
j editors to serve their calling In a
worthy way.

A MESSAGE FOR TODAY
FROM ABRAHAM LINCOLN.
"Let every American, every
lover of liberty, every well
ww, her to his posterity, swear
by the blood of the devolution
never to violate in the least
particular the laws of the coun
try, and never to tolerate their
violation by others. As the
patriots of "6 did to support
ihe Constitution and Laws let
every American pledge his life,
his property and sacred honor.
Let every man remember that
to violate the law is to trample
on the blood of his fathpr, and
to tear the charter of his own
and his children's liberty.
"Lot reverence for the Laws
be breathed by every American
mother to the lisping babe that
prattles on her lap; let it be
taught in the schools, in semi
naries, and in colleges; let it
be written in primers, spelling
books and almanacs; let it be
preached from the pulpit, pro
claimed in the legislative halls
r.nd enforced in the courts of
justice.
"In short, let it become the
political religion of the nation;
and let the old and the young,
the rich and the poor, the grave
and the gay, of all sexes and
tongues and colors and condi
tions, sacrifice unceasingly upon
its altars." Abraham Lincoln.
(Michigan Daily.)
"TWILIGHT CONCTCTITS."
Many students have found music
highly effective in counteracting the
unsettling arter-effects of final exami
nations. With this in mind short
musical programs are given following
exams in several colleges, pieces be
ing selected for their restful dualities.
Not long ago the School of Music gave
"Twilight Concerts" for a .similar pu--noso.
but it is reported that none or
these hnv.i been planned for this yea''.
In view of the large mtn:W of siu-
Vnts who may appreciate the bene-
fits of these programs and the service
ibpy can perform during the exami
nation weeks it is to be hoped the
'-ri'ool of Music will not find it too
late to restore the "Twilight Con
certs" during the coming finals.
Five persons picked at random art
usked a question each day.
Today's question: What do ou
think 01' delivering "Rags" "I llie
foreiiL houses?
1. Sigma Nu, 1615 F St.
It's a mighty good idea lor lots ot
the houses' never get worked and if
;,urh means are used the house wil'.
wish to get deliveries and so sub
scribe. 2. Kappa Alpha Theta, 1548 R St.
Good idea. Saves the subscribers
iots of trouble, and does away with
much congestion and confusion at ui--posloffice.
3. Phi Kappa Psi, 1548 S St.
Good idea. Certainly is all right.
4. Phi Beta Phi, 1414 G St.
It is a very good Idea for it saves
trouble, as will as influencing more
people to subscribe.
