Are you reading the daily bits of
news in the Nebraskan thai have
been gleaned from exchanges? Tney
afford a bird's-eye view of happenings
of interest in' other colleges and uni
versities and should be of interest to
Nebraska students.
We sometimes think that Corn
husker students know too little about
other institutions. One cannot know
too much about his own school, but
it is very easy to overlook on ac
quaintance with conditions oc othci
campuses.
Don't become too self-centered, Ne-
braskans! Wake up to the fact that
other worlds than ours exist. Read
this column every day.
Thursday, February 2 at 7:30 for the
election of officers for the comins
semester. Every member is urged tc
be present.
Rifle Teams
All members of the vniversity Ride
Teams No. 1, 2 and 3 are requested to

1 and 2 to fire first stages of Corps
Area Matches.

STUDENT INDIFFERENCE.
When a man believes and admits
that a certain thing dhould b'j done
and then does not do it, he is admit
ting his own weakness. And yet most
of us fall into this category for we
believe i.nd admit that there is too
much social activity and not enough
serious consideration of worthy prob
lems. t!:e solution of which is certain
to confront us in the near future. How
many of us are willing to forego a
single social function in order to at
tend a lecture on some live subject
that is commanding serious atten
tion? If choice lies between hearing
a debate of some current qusiic-n
and accepting an invitation to a dance
it's dollars to doughnuts that we'll
dance.
And yet we continue to dance while
these important problems are .de
manding solution just as Nero fid
dled while Rome burned. Those who
struggle to awaken the student body
from its indifferent mood are still
hoping that tiie students will obey
the impulse that often rises and at
temps to assort itself. A faint ray
of hope exists. A few students have
promised solid support for the Sher
wood Eddy meetings but H ere still
remains thr (task of securing the
support of the great body of stu
dents. Very likely most of us will flock
to the first meeting more out of
curiosity than because of a real in
terest in the subject and purpose.
We are prone to regard anything that
savers of V. M. C. A. as dull and un
intf .-tin?. Just because it lacks
the superficiality of ordinary enter
tainment and requires our concen
trated nif-nt.il effort we dismiss it ss
belonsing outside of our sphete.
Sherwood Eddy comes to Nebraska
with a real message. He is seeking
to interest the students in serious
consideration of moral, political and
social problems of the world. If we
havr- any sense of responsibility to
ward ourselves and others we will
at least lend an ear to a man who
ccrr.--s with a world of information.
FAULTS.
What do you suppose this world
would be like if people did not have
any faults? If we were all perfect
there would be no variety, and vari
ety is said to be the very spice of
life. It is presumptuous to imagine
a faultless world, and since faults
are bound to exist ti is well to con
sider them.
Everybody has his faults there is
so much bad in the best of us though
perhaps no two persons have the same
ones. They are as varied as they
are numerous, hence it behooves
everyone to judge as ho wou'd be
judged and be as generous as possible
in measuring his fellowman. It is
not charity to overlook or forgive a
fault in a friend, because he may be
tolerating a very similar trait in you
Rare indeed is the person who does
not know what his faults -are. He
may strive to ignore them, but de; p
in his heart he always knows where
his weaknesses are. We know our
selves well enough to realize the
point at which we begin to give way
and let faults overcome our better
judgment.
Faults are not of necessity bad in
Mie sense that 'we consider most
tilings bad. They are merely imper
fections, and a slight imperfection is
not ruinous provided the basic fabric
is good. McGiil Daily.

CLEAN POLITICS.
Just lately we have been hearing
much comment on the subject of
cleaning up the "rotten politics" said
to be existing in the university at
present. When election time rolls
around these sentiments r.re invari
ably expressed by some ambitious re
former or group of reformeis. When
the time comes for candidates to file
for offices someone always tak-:s no
tice that our politics are anything but
clean.
As a matter of fact we refuse to
believe that conditions aro half as
bad as they have been painted, with
all due respect to the coeds who
are going to do the cleaning. The
views referred to above are usually
advanced by persons who really have
little or no conception of what poli
tics, is. Politics, from its nature and
origin, demands organization. It is
not a game for the individual. I;i
the university, just as in the btate or
nation, this holds true.
Political parties are a fundamental
necessity of representative govern
ments. It is not necessary to defend
them in detail here. As a form of
organization, this applies to a univer
sity campus as well.
We are glad to note an o-ganlza-tlon
of non-fraternity students. It
Is the only way they can get repre
sentation to which they are ju.-.tly en
titled. In the past fraternities have
probably controlled politics on the
campus, and why? Because of one
thin g organl zation.
So again we contend that politics
Is not so bad as is claimed. We must
realize that politics on the campus
Is Just the same as politics anywhere
else. It Is a game of organization
and always will be.
