ON BEING AN INDIVIDUAL
Students are in revolt; at least
some of them are. They always
have been, ever since the day when
Heraclitus passionately denied the
changelessness of Being and asserted
the universality of Becoming. They
always will be revolting. As long as
all the forces of socioty are concen
trated upon making the student con
form to conventional rules, remould
ing him and turning him out upon
the world, the colourless, steretyped
product of a mechanical system, he
will be rising in rebellion and stren
uously demanding from society that
he be accorded the sovereign right
of man, recognition as an individual.
To be an individual is a privilege
open to all, in varying degrees, and
taken advantage of by surprisingly
few. Year after year thousands of
young men and women are thrust
forth from the obscurity of towns
and villages and given the golden
opportunity of acquiring that nebu
lous something known as a college
education. Year after year a few
men and fewer women emerge from
the mouth of the educational hand
mill, flushed and struggling and
sometimes rather profane but exult
ing in the realization that they have
conquered, broken free from the
musty dusty cobwebs of convention
that had enmeshed them almost as
surely, but not quite, as the golden
threads of the Lilliputians, and
achieved what men throughout the
centuries have sought for but seldom
gained, freedom, individuality.
The rest of those thousands of
young men and women are turned
but from that same educational hand-
mill, tepid, colurless as when they
went in, a long line of steretyped
nonentities, uniform, monotonous,
uninteresting, thinking the same
thoughts, talking the same inanities,
and doing the same conventional
things in the same conventional way.
Smug, complacent, contented they
are because they have never known
anything better, never known the
joy of thinking their way through to
conclusions as individuals regardless
of the opinion of the mob, never ex
perienced the thrill that always ac
Companies an action done because it
is the most worthwhile thing and not
because the world dictates. Out into
life they go, into business where
they chase the almighty dollar just
as they managed the track team, into
teaching where fearful of a mistake
they follow the text book with pain
ful exactness, into engineering where
like cyclones they tear down upon
the world destroying the beauty of
nature and increasing the complexity
of the civilization that produced
them.
Each generation is like the last,
the great mass of youth accepting
without protest or even question the
traditions of their elder, meekly
adapting themselves to their environ
ment, fitting themselves into the in
numerable ruts of a soul destroying
civilization, throwing all their energy
into perpetuating and developing
systems and organizations which may
be and probably are unsound. But
always there are the few, the indi
viduals, who protest against being
mere puppets, who break loose from
all these insufferable bonds, and
see things in a clear light, and have
the courage to pick out the things
that are worth while doing and do
them. Then it is when we get a
Galileo or a Bruno, a Carlyle or a
Ruskin, a Socrates or a Jesus, men
who stand out above the centuries,
who will live "when Lloyd George,
Foch and William Hohentollern share
with Charlie Chaplin that ineluct
able oblivion which awaits the un
creative mind."
Anyone can achieve individuality
who but allows himself. There is an
insistent little voice in each of us, al
most smothered sometmes but still
there, crying out against this prison
life, demanding release from its iron
fetters. Lsten to it before it dies
away, and before the burden of years
and habits make self expression im
pessible. Hear what it says, "Wake
up I Assert yourself I Be an

Kappa Phi Takes in
Nine New Members
Members of Kappa Phi initiated
nine 'new pledges Saturday evening.
Kappa Phi is an organization for the
Methodist women who are attending
the University. The new members,
who were chosen last spring, are:
Margaret Beeler, Virginia Jordan,

Wallwey, Elizabeth Wilson, Gladys

Spanish Program IS
Presented Saturday
A Spanish program was given in
Teachers College Saturday night.
This was the fourth of a series of pro
grams being sponsored by the mod
ern language department. An ad
dress in Spanish was given by John
McCoy. Spanish songs of various
kinds were sung, and Spanish games
played during the social hour.
Plans were also made for the pre
sentation of a Spanish play at the
next meeting, which will be held the
latter part of this month.
Attend Meeting of
Council in Lawrence
Miss Erma Appleby, secretary of
the Y. W. C. A., and Cyrena Smith
left Friday morning for Lawrence,
Kansas, where they are attending the
meeting of the regional council of
the association. They will return
Monday. Miss Appleby attends the
conference in the capacity or joint
chairman for the Estes Park- summer
conference. Miss Smith is a member
of the council representing large universities.
There is nothing the home folks
would appreciate more than a really
good photograph of yourself. A
glimpse into Townsend's display win
dows on South Eleventh street will
demonstrate the superiority of their
portraiture. Here "you will always
find familiar faces."

An alumnus motored to
Lincoln to a game recent
ly (she wa3 a married wo
man of about 35) and
spealcing to her compan
ion said:
"These young men look
different, somehow, from
the young men I met here
on Class Day, 15 years
aero. They seem more
practical, more business- P
like, closer to the world.
Lincoln is no larger out in
the wide open spaces in
the literal sense th e
automobile, radio, tele
phones and modern news
papers have ended its old
time seclusion'
This explains why an old
alumnua who wanted a
safety razor, got it at
Rudge & Guenzel's.
It explains why another
alumnus sent to Rudge .&
Guenzel's recently for a
particular kind of silk
hose and some colored
handkerchiefs.
College folk remember
the stores of their college
days, and the farther col

chases to go in service and
value the quicker they
