For United States Consular
Service Abroad.
COURSES WILL BE OFFERED
Announcement of Class Schedules For
Applicants Will Soon be Made
From Washington.
Organization of courses for students
of the University of Nebraska who
wish to enter the diplomatic service of
the United States will be started soon,
according to &n announcement by
Dean Philo M. Duck. Examinations for
entrance into the diplomatic service
Will be hold at Washington. D. C,
next July 11. The examination la held
to obtain men eligible for appoint
ment as third secretaries in the diplo
matic sen-ice.
The diplomatic servire is charged
with the conduct of official inter
course between the United States and
the foreign country where they axe
serving. It is composed of forty diplo
matic missions, known as ambassies
or legations according to the import
ance, situated at the capitals of the
foreign countries.
Each mission consists of an ambas
sador, minister or charge d'affairs,
and one or more secretaries. It is
the duty of the mission, to protect the
property and lives of American citi
zens in the country where- 4hey are
serving to conduct the communica
tions between the governments. Obser
vations upon political and social con
ditions in the country where they are
serving must be made and reports
gien to the secretary of state. The
mission must safeguard and promote
the general and commercial interests
of the United States and its individ
ual citizens.
Advantages of Diplomatic Service.
The duties of the officers place spe
cial requirements upon them both in
character and ability. To individuals
meeting these requirements unusual
advantages are offered. Members of
the service occupy broad positions of
dignity and consequence. Diplomatic
officers are given special privileges
in the countries of their residence.
The work of the men in tho service
brings them into direct contact with
leaders of thought and action in the
fieids of government, the professions
and business. In foreign eyes, these
men represent the Uniied States and
its institutions.
The officers must establish and
maintain in the capitals in which they
reside, a position befitting the com
manding prestige of the United States.
Essential factors toward success as
a diplomatic officer lies in adaptabili
ty, balance, tact, sound judgment,
rigid impartiality, and integrity, as
well as thorough general education
and technical proficiency.
A strict discipline is imposed upon
the members. They must perform the
assigned duties without question. They
must go to whatever part of the world
they are sent. Many times their hours
are long and the work hard. They
must perform their duties without re
gard for discomfoii or personal dang
er. Requirement of Diplomatic Service.
Rewards of the service are not.
in money. The money compensation?
allowed at present are not adequate.
Improvements in this respect are a
rtainty. Material gain is not the
reward. Instead the foreign service
offers the cultural advantages of for
eign travel, active contact with leaders
in other lands and the opportunity of
distinguished patriotic achievements
It offers the spiritual gratif'cation
found in the path of public service
id responsibility.

Dr. Albert Schneider Receives Prize
for Pharmological
Report.
Dr. Albert Schneider, professor of
pharmacognosy of the college of phar
macy, has been awarded the Ebert
prize for his report on "A General
Method fur Making Quantitive Mic
rornalvses of Vegetable Drugs and
Spicis." He is president of the newly
organized society of American Mic
roanalysis and is preparing a number
cf riporis on microanalytical methods
to be submitted to that body for con
sideration and action. He has devised
a gieatly simplified method Tor de
termining the phenol cc ffcient of dis
infectants which it is believed will
soon displace the expensive and time
consuming method now in use, known
as the United States public health
service method.
Dr. Schneider has given much at
tention to the ventilation of public
onveyanres and is now drawing tjp
specifications "For a Ventilating Sys
cm for Tublic Conveyances inclusive
if the Mechanical Appliances pertain
ing there to." The system supplies
filtered air to all passenger cars. The
cost of installation is said to be slight
and the operating expense is merely
ominal.
Investigations of Cancer.
The cancer investigations which Dr.
Schneidt r began last January are sti'J
under way, but somewhat baLdieap-
ed for lack of cancer material. Sev
eral preliminary reports outlining the
suits of the Investigation to date
ill soon appear in several of the

nothing has developed in his ob
servations which would disprove his
statements as announced in a report
dated April 13, 1921. to the effect that
cancer is caused by a Plasmodium

of the Plasmodium of malaria.

ARTICLE
PUBLISHED
Independent and Weekly Review
Prints Discussion by Be
braska Instructor.
Wonders of the ant world are the
objects of a full page article by Dean
Philo M. Buck in the last issue of
The Independent and The Weekly Re
ijw. Ambitious, habits, customs oi
time, and all things pertaining to the
i:iits a:e discussed by the deau.
j "A .socialized slate with a socialized
conscience" is what Dean Buck calls
the ant hill. The quctr.s, rre queen.-,
without ruling; the work.-rs, work
with tho knowledge that their only re
waid will be moie work; ai:d live a
short inelorious life with ihe thought
that their places will be taken to pre
cision by the next generation. Dean
Buck declares there is a perfect di
vision of labor with no aspirations to
. atisly the individual capacity.
All the ants work for the good of
the community. Human beingr are
not made cf the same stuff as ants, the
dean asserts. A human laborer would
not be at all annoyed if he weie re
lieved of a load three times his size
in the middle of the task of moving
it'as an rnt' is. Ants, when attacked,
scorn individual flight, says the dean,
and rush to the nests to pave the
children and cattle. The enemies,
even, are not like lesser breeds. For
lacy do not eat the ones which they
capture, nor do they slay them. In
stead they roar them as slaved and
slaves they remain.
In a flood, ants do net run. nor do
they take to the raft Instead they
make a living ant ball with the queen
and the young ants in the centre, and
float down with the stream until they
find a new place to take up their
abode. Then it is the same monoto
nous life of work and more work
While the ants float in tho water
they do not let the ants underneath
stay there but they roll over and
over each taking his share of the dis
comforts and each his fh"re of the
burden of bringing their clan through
safely.
The ants conserve their energy and
allow no waste motion. If they multl
lr fast they form new colonies.
Then as a finale to the article Dean
Buck descrils bow ants are the
same now as they were thousands
of years ago, as they will be thou-j
ands of years ahead. Nothing teaches
bem anything new for tley have ac
complished perfection.

INVITATION
LEBHLBACK
FROM BIG REUNION
Dean of Business Administration Col
lego Returns From McGill Uni
versity Centennial.
NOTED MEN RECEIVE HONOR
Impressive Ceremonies Mark Confer
ring of Honorary Degrees to Men
From Many Nations.
"The meeting of the representatives
of all the leading American universit
ies at the Centennial reunion of Mo
(lill University in Canada last week
will have a great effect in increasing
the good will between the -scholars of
America. The lOnglish-speaking peoples
ought not to heed the attempts of sin
ister influences to create ill wi'l be
tween them. The closer union be'ween
the university men of the United
States and Canada and England will
create an intellectual entente that will
rake a leading part in keeping up the
iood feeling between the branches of
the English-speaking peoples."
This is the message Dr. James E. Le
Rossignol, dean of the colleg3 of busi
ness administration, bri rs back from
Canada, where last week he represent
ed the University of Nebraska at tho
Centennial reunion of McGill Univer
sity. The dean was on 3 of the fifty
distinguished persons wno received
the honorary degree of LL. 1). from
the institution. McGill is the alma
mater of Dr. Le Rossignol, who gradu
ated from it in 1SS8.
Always more ea;er than the Ameri
cans to make certain occasions fetes
of great moment, the Canadians put
on a week of ceremonies, pageants.
and events that will long be rememb
ered by those who either participated
in them or observed them, accord
ing to Dean Le Rossignol. The con
vocation at which the honorary de
grees were granted was an impressive
scene. Lord Byng of Vimy, noted war
hero, commander of the Canadian
troops in France, now governor gen
eral of Canada, led the procession.
There was something of the romance
of pageantry and statliness about the
march, which led through the streets
of Montreal. Gowns of solemn black
and royal purple alternated with robes
of brilliant scarlet, quieter pink and
spotless white. Hoods of dozens of in
stitutions of learning were displayed.
Chiefly noticeable among the academ
ic gowns were the scarlet of the Mc
Gill doctors of law.
All Professions Represented.
As one of the Montreal papers put
it: "It must have been a great revela
tion to those who watched the parade
to realize that scholastic attainment
and success are not incompatible.
There were leaders of the people, lead-
rs in every sense. There were sol
diers there. Some of the men had done
reat things in medicine, in law, in
literature; one was a poet; some had
lug into ihe ground and laid bare
strange secrets and great wealtn;
some had delved into the past and
made great books; some had been
teachers; some had built bridges:
some had guided the spiritual paths of
their fellows; one had won the Noble
prize for scientific research. There
was the Premier of Quebec. Nor had
ihe other sex been forgoit-n because
wo of these who received degrees hid
been real sisters of mercy during the
war."
The ceremony was impressive be
cause of its simplicity. A long marcn
f notable persons, together with the
University staff; a brief prayer; a
short address by the Chancellor of Mc
Gill; and four addresses by represent
atives of the candidates for the de
grees. It was the atmosphere of the
situation that made the occasion mem
orable.
Universities Sent Greetings.
There were many congratulatory
messages from other universities. The
University of Nancy reminded McGill
that it would never be forgotten that
Canadian troops had fought in France.
Louvain, Brussells, Liverpool, Trinity,
Wales, John Hopkins, Vale, Harvard,
Nebraska, and other institutions frotn
far and near sent pleasant works for
McGill. The striking figure of Dr. Bou
gie, dre.ssend in the saffron robe of
Doctor of Law of Paris, made fretdi
contrast .when he ascended the plat
form and delivered a message from
he L'niversity of Paris in the French
to'rgue.
President Angell of Tale made one
of the best speeches of the reunion.
