The fact that this department is able to continue its work without interruption in Miss Howell's absence is a tribute to the thoroughness with which she has or ganized her work. MLsa Howell's heroic action in risk ing her own life to save a child was no revelation to those who had watched her at work at the Univer sity. C. A REGULATION. Letters to the "Student Opinion" column have been received in the last few days, but it will be impo sible to use any of them unless the writers identify their letters. It is not necessary that the name be sign' ed to the published communication, but it is necessary that the editor know fr 'vhom the letter comes and talk 'e writer to make sure he is se.w3 id that his subject is worthy of such comment. The iden tity of the writer will always be withheld by the editor if that is re quested. The College Press THE OFFER OF SYRACUSE. This week marks the start of a new life to hundreds of young men freshman organization, in spite of its claims, is not an honorary society. Its membership is not more than half re presentative of the incoming class, and is representative that far only in that each fraternity offers the best one of its freshman pledges for initi ation. Although the Goblins are considered an unnecessary organization by most University students, they have a real place in the institution, although that place is a minor one. Organization of the freshman class for the Olympics is the chief activity of the group. The men are also use ful for odd jobs that are necessary but inconsequential. The chief objection to the existence of the organization then, is that it is not actually representative of the class. A plan for selecting representatives of a new class, the members of which have had no opportunity to show their ability would be difficult to outline without the collaboration of many in dividuals. Some form of psychological test might be used; with an investigation of scholastic records to make sure the candidate would be able to remain in the University while engaged in Gob lin activities. The membership might be limited to thirty-five or forty men, not more than one from each fraternity, with the provision that if not enough can didates qualified in the tests con ducted, fraternities not represented among the successful candidates might complete the membership. While constructive criticism is more desirable than mere criticism, a small group of editorial writers could hardly be expected to work out a feasible plan. The Student Council and other representatives of the up perclasses, with the aid of University authorities, should easily be able to present a workable method of choos ing Green Goblins. This charge of misrepresentation is not, and it should not be confined to Green Goblins. It is true that a num ber of honorary societies attribute to themselves the names of classes of students which they do not truly represent. cuse seeking an education. And the education which they will find will be largely determined by the man ner in which they search for it. For college has much to offer beyond the mere perusal of specified books. The attainment of a well-rounded, broad and valuable education is en tirely up to the student Academic work, of course, is to be placed first in the schedule of every freshman, so definitely that a habit will be formed which will carry through the four years. And here, too, the student must choose for him self just how to gain what is most desired from his studies whether it be to develop his mind and intellect in a general way, to absorb a smat tering knowledge along various lines, or to train himself for a certain ca reer. But to gain knowledge and then to lose it puts one in the class with the old man who always starts to tell story and then forgets the point Development of the power of reten tion is an important factor in the completeness of an education. Extra-curricular activities come second in importance in a well-bal anced education, for they furnish that contact with new acquaintances, new ideas, and new affiliations, which contribute so largely to the growth of individual responsibility, co-operation, and executive ability. Personality and character building are not by any means the smallest phase of education and they are as sisted by the demands of social life at college as well as by actual living in an atmosphere of freedom where each person has returned to him frankly the social judgment that his acts and character deserve. Theodore Roosevelt in an address before college students, once said: "You are here today to study and while here, to study hard; when you have finished studying and come to play, play hard. The man who shirks his work will shirk his play." The so- ENCOURACING OUTLOOK. The close of the subscription drive this year finds The Daily Nebraskan in better circumstances than ever be fore. Financially, the success of the pa per seems assured, with more Station A subscriptions, more fraternity sub scriptions, a large mailing list more advertising contracts and more con tracted inches of advertising than last year, when all records were broken. Office equipment is better and more complete and the operation of the paper is based on the metropoli tan style. The separation of the edi torial and business offices is one of the more significant steps in this change to the methods of the big rity daily. More typewriters have been pro vided for reporters, the telephone are better arranged, railings have been constructed to half "loafers, a copy desk has been placed advantage ously and an adequate filing system has been installed for copy and "cuts." Definite copy and advertising copy deadlines have been set and the staff is adhering to them rigidly. There are still the difficulties encountered with a reportorial staff composed el post entirely of freshmen who are just learning the essentials of news writing. Upperclassmen, who could easily take tbe precedence because of their ability, seem uninterested in the work of reporting for the University daily. cial events incident to college Ufa, art a part of a thorough education Lastly, there is the spirit of Syra cuse. Though it may not be termed an educational requirement there is no doubt that a college education at Syracuse would be incomplete with out it To foster a sentiment of fel lowship and co-operation for those connected with it and a loyalty and love for the institution itself is the offering and demand of our Alma Mater.

Ten Years Ago An earnest political writer deplor ed the "pitiable condition of affairs in the senior class," on the eve of the class elections. In the junior class "things seem to have reserved them selves." The Y. M. C. A. was gen erally expected to enter a candidate for the freshman presidency. "Lack of sufficient interest in Bible studv and mission work and the prev alence of smoking among the Uni versity students has prompted the Y. M. C. A. to put a candidate in the field," the political follower said. COLORADO AGGIES An old Aggie tradition was revived this year when freshman women decided to wear green caps. The custom died nut over twenty years ago. but was revived by a vote of the freshman women themselves. You are cordially invited to open an ac count with ut in our New Bank Building.
