WRITING LETTERS.
Writing letters is an nrt, hut a fa
miliar one today possessed In .some
decree by everyone. It requires no
research or study or great intellec
tual effort to write a letter since it
la merely a communication of events
told in the natural, unaffected way
of tho writer. The arrivnl of a letter
is hailed with joy. Then why is it
that the art is generally so miserably
neglected?
It has been said that friendship is
a boon to life. It is also a fact that
friends cannot always remain to
gether. Time and distance almost in
evitably grow between them, and the
one big. tangible tie that remains to
bind them is the letter. News
papers and other printed matter may
bring Information of plac.3 and indi
vidual, but they can never bring with
them that feeling of having enjoyeu
a visit with the absent one. Facts
that look cold and Impersonal in print
become rich In Interest when read
in the handwriting of a friend. Let
ters save us the necessity of for
getting much of the treasured past
which is called up only through the
communications of friends.
Our rapid mail service communica
tion is one of the high marks of our
civilization. It costs two cents, a
wee bit of mental effort, and fifteen
minutes of time to connect through
means of a letter with a friend that
you have not seen for years. It is
quite unlike conditions years and
years ago when people were incap
able of writing their own letters and
had to hire masters to do It for
them.
Tho general excuse for failure to
write is the lack of time. Thi3
world does not move so swiftly that
there is not lime to live or to re
member that there are others living
who would like to think that they are
not entirely forgotten. A letter con
stantly put off until a future time
may have to be put off forever. Mail
service is practically certain, but life
is not, and its saddest words are, "It
might have been."
If you would make someone in this
troubled old world happy; if you
would keep the flower of life bloom
ing brightly; and if you would keep
the memory of the past fresh, write
a letter to your friend that you have
neglected.
with the Interests of the world in
which It functions.
N'eglerting this situation nltoglher.
too many students enter a Unlvor
city with the Idea of paining an edu
cation completely within tho bound
aries of its campus. Although in
their home communities they may
have been Interested In some phase
f national or international life, nl
though they may have been ardent
levspnper readers each evening,
their four years at college are marked
by a decided disregard of every
problem which confronts ration or
world. Thry become lotus-eaters in
regard to outside affairs. They study
political science, and don't oven know
who has been elected governor of
their home state. They absorb his
tory, and fail to follow the makers of
history today. They study the past,
and totally disconnect themselves
from the more important present and
its bearing on the future. They sur
round themselves with the walls of the
University, and live in isolation for
four precious years.
To be sure, the student who thinks
matters over is practically .".ever
guilty of this failure to keep in touch
with the world. Hut the fact remains
that all students do not ponder then
choices to any considerable extent,
and too many are inclined to take
the easiest way of complete forget
fulncss of the world during their
stav in an educational Utopia. What
Universities need is not only stn
dents who digest the contents of text
books, but readers of newspapers,
periodicals, and modern books which
keen them well posted in current
events.
If University is to mean what it
should, we must keep in touch with
the world. Michigan Daily.

Oovernor McKelvIe finds a few
things to bo thankful for, to which
ho calls uttentlon In his official
proclamation for tlio observance of
Thanksgiving day, November 30 in
Nebraska.. Ho says:
"Tho president of. tho United
States has designated Thursday, the
thirtieth day of November, as a day
of thanksgiving, to bo observed by
the people of the nation.
"Verily, this should be n day of
universal observance In Nebraska.
How many aro tho blessings for
which the people of this common
wealth should bo grateful! Again,
rich acres have yielded up their
bounty to the husbandmnn, and upon
every hand thero is evidence or na

parison with the plentiful supply of
human necessities in fills fair domain.
"If we are moved to complain, it

our duty to give thanks to our Heav

have crowned this year, and so turn

we may appear just as worthy in his
eye.
"Wherefore, I, Samuel TH. McKelvie,

proclaim Thursday, the thirtieth day
of November, a day of Thanksgiving,
and I recommend that due observ

Unification of college spirit and
strengthening of fellow-feeling, thru
the erection of a number of commodi
ous men's dormitories on the campus
is the goal toward which the Associa
tion of Unorganized Is at present di
recting its energies. C. J. Sembowcr
and C. 13. Edmundson, deans of men,
are co-operating with Russell E. Wise,
president of the association, in carry
ing on an extensive correspondence
with chambers of commerce in Indi

companies, in an effort to induce
them to aid actively in tho project by
interesting capital.
Few responses to tne letters have
been received as yet. An Interest in
the plan Is evidenced in the early re
plies, however, and future communi

of men's dormitories to the campus
as one of (he most outstanding im

Tho death rate In Kansas from ty
phoid fever has been reduced 7!i per
cent, while the rato from tubercu
losis Is the lowest In tho United
(Sates, according to tho records of
tho Slato Water and Sewer Labora
tory in Tnow hall, There have been
no epidemics from water bacteria
dlsoases in tho state of Kansas in
the last five years.
Statistics furnished by the United
States Public Health service place
the water supervision in tho state of
Kansas third In importance. The
work of tho Water and Sower Labor
atory ranks with tho eight loading
states of tho country. Tho great
diminishing of disease in tho state
has proven beyond a doubt the effi
ciency of this department. Since a
great many scientists believe tuber

ment considers its efforts most suc
cessful in stamping out this dreadful
