DEBTS AND DEBTORS.
These are times of nervousness
yea, of niuch agitation. The poor
students are slowly and yet swiftly
travelling toward the abyss of final
examinations. And the worry is co
lossal. Yet there are others not exactly
of the campus but certainly a part
of it, once or twice removed, who
also are beginning to suffer with
mental perturbation.
The merchants of the metropolis
wherein we reside!
They, the purveyors pf every
thing which will lead the family's
pride to squander the family's
wealth, are righteously having
qualms about some of the campus in
habitants who are not exactly
prompt in the paying of their lawful
debts.
In his hurry to get to the old pitch
fork or the rusty bookkeeping pen,
the industrious student should not
forget to settle his obligations to the
townsmen and others.
Leaving unpaid bills is not only
bad business but the load has to be
carried by the more honest of the
collegians who usually have hard
enough times.
Be fair, be square and pay up
before leaving town for'the sum
mer. At least go to the merchant
and have a definite understanding
with him before taking a departure
and some of his goods lor parts
more or less unknown.
INTERESTED? YES!
Several colleges throughout the
country have been holding "sacri
fice weeks" in order to raise funds
for the support of Ihe international
student relief work. In many in
stances the students have worked vol
untarily in order to earn the money
for their contributions.
In one academy a full holiday was
declared for this purpose, and in
fashionable finishing schools the
girls have engaged in a variety of
occuptions from shining shoes to
making hats and painting pictures
all for the sake of students in other
lands.
Truly it can be said that such ac
tions are eloquent.
When the leaders of this move
ment were trying to get the students
to support the relief enterprise they
did not stress the privation and suf
fering of students abroad, but rather
the constructive achievements of the
work, and its significance as the first
world-wide student co-operative un
dertaking. This would seem to be
conclusive proof that students are
interested in constructive interna
tionalism, even though they do not
designate it by that term.
Yes, the students of American col
leges are interested in international
affairs. Youth is interested in the
world exclusively so.
Precisely therein lies the great op
portunity for educators to consoli
date that intensive interest, and so
ground it upon the bedrock of philo
sophical, political, economic, social
and moral truth as to make it an in
vincible power in the development
and production of international
thought and action.
CO TO SCHOOL.
The nation is sorely in need of in
teligent men and women, who are
able to decide questions for them
selves, instead of merely following
time worn examples of what is best,
or following radicals blindly without
consideration of what that following
wili lead to. These citizens are
needed and it makes no difference
as to their color as long as they are
voters.
To obtain such citizenship, educa-;
tion must at least be a basis, al
though it does not in itself accom-

plish such an end. The negro stu
dents of America are not only edu
cating themselves, but with much
enthusiasm are carrying on a cam
paign to better their race. In this
way they will bring about a higher
standard of living for their people
thus enabling them to have a chance
to develop to their highest capacity
as well as a race.

BERGE AND LANG WILL
PUT OUT 1925 ANNUAL
Board Makes Sampson Manag
ing Editor; Appoints Two
Business Assistants
Wendell Berge was appointed edi
tor and Robert Lang business man
ager of the 1925 Cornhusker in the
meeting of the Student Publication
board May 28. Several changes in
the organization of the annual staff
were decided upon at that time, but
reconsidered in a meeting held yes
terday. Donald Sampson, '26, of Central
City, is to be the junior managing
editor of the Cornhusker. Two of
the applicants were given the posi
tions of assistant business managers.
They were Ira Brinkerhoff, '27, of
Pawnee City and Thomas Varney, '27
of Broken Bow.
Wendell Berge, the new editor,
graduated from Lincoln high school
in 1920. He was the managing editor
of the Cornhusker this year and is
prominent as an intercollegiate de
bator, having represented the Univer
sity of Nebraska for the past three
years. He won the second prize last
May in the national essay contest con
ducted by the Institution of Interna
tional Education.
Robert Lang, the new l-isiness
manager, is a graduate of the Wy
more high school. He was in charge
of local advertising for the 1924
Cornhusker. Donald Sampson, the
managing editor, is a graduate of the
Central City high school where he was
business manager of the annual.
In the meeting of the Publication
board last week it was decided to ap
point four associate editors on the
1925 Cornhusker to lessen the burden
of the editor and managing editor.
In the meeting held yesterday, the
board reconsidered its action. The
salary of the editor of the Cornhus
ker will be $500 next year as it was
this year.

NEAR EAST RELIEF
ASKS STUDENT AID
Requests Discarded Articles of
Use for Shipment to
Oriental Camps
An appeal is being made by the
University committee of the Near
East relief to all students to leave
any clothing, bedding, towels, or
other articles that are of use, for
shipment to the relief camps of the
near east. The clothing may be left
at the Temple, at Ellen Smith hall
or at any of the dormitories, fra
ternity or sorority houses. Miss
Ruth Carpenter, chairman of the
committee, should be notified at
F6146 that the clothing has been
left.
Most of the clothing will go to the
relief camps around Salon iki where
Ted Gannaway, a former Nebraskan,
is doing relief work and attempting
to reduce the number of deathes
from starvation and exposure by a
very careful use of the material sent
over.
About 150,000 destitute refu
gees are gathered in these camps.
They were compelled to leave every
thing behind them except the very
clothes on their backs and in some
cases even these, when the Christians
were expelled from Asia Minor dur
ing 1922 and 1923.
Daisy Rich, president of the Silver
Serpents and members of that organ
ization are in charge of collecting the
relief material.
