War Between Kansas and Nebraska
"The War Between Nebraska And
Kansas," is the topic featured in the
latest edition of the Nebraska His
tory magazine, quarterly publication
of the Nebraska Historical Society,
now being issued. The cause of tne
present conflict between the rival
states is a controversy between their
respective historical authorities as to
the true location of the historic Pike
Pawnee Indian village.
In 1806, Lieutenant Piko with
twenty-two soldiers and the assist
ance of Lieutenant Wilkenson, as
cended by the Missouri and Osaga.
Rivers to the village of the Republi
can Pawnee Indians. Here, on Sep
tember 29, he succeeded in persuad
ing the chief of the village to haul
down the Spanish Flag, erected
shortly before his arrival by the
Spaniards from New Spain, and to
raise the Stars and Stripes in its
place. This act is recognized as the
completion of the downfall of Span
ish authority in Nebraska and the
plains of the central West, then a
part of the Louisiana Purchase.
Erects Monument
In 1901, Kansas erected a monu
ment near Republic, Kansas, at a
place where it conceived the loca
tion of this Pawnee village had been.
It is the judgment of the Nebras
ka State Historical Society that the
true site is in Nebraska, between the
towns of Guide Rock and Red Cloud.
RADIO LECTURE IS
GIYEN BY CAMERON
Social Worker Declares Nebraska
Has Same Poor Laws as in
Territorial Days
M iss Anna Cameron, instructor of
Social Work in the extension divis
ion, gave a radio lecture at 2:30
o'clock Wednesday afternoon on
"Changes in Nebraska Poor Laws
Since Territorial Times."
"There have been relatively few
changes," Miss Cameron said. "Up
until 1921 it was possible for child
ren to be left in the County Farm,
and for children to be born there.
The Mothers Pension Law, passed in
1921, prevents this.
"One law which has not changed
at all is the Residence Law which
says. Any person becoming charge
able as a pauper in this territory shall
be chargeable as such pauper in the
county in which he or she resides.
The term residence shall be taken
and considered to mean the actual
residence of the party where he or
she made his or her home. This law
is practically the same one we have
today."
Miss Cameron will lecturer next
Wednesday afternoon at 2:30 o'clock
on "A Comparison of Nebraska Poor
Laws with those of there states." Be
ginning February 15, there will be a
series of papers read by the students
who have written them for research
in social work.
DAKOTA CLOB WILL
STUDY DRAMATICS
Associated Community Drama Club
Reads One Act and Longer
Plays as Object
Vermillion, S.D., Feb. 8. Reading
of plays and the study of foremost
dramatists will be one of the primary
objects of the Associated Community
Drama Clubs of South Dakota, ac
cording to Garrett Breckenridge, sec
retary of the Extension Division at
the University of South Dakota. The
association of community drama
clubs is just being organized in South
Dakota to meet the growing demand
for community drama work.
"We have selected a list of one
act and longer plays to cover about
two hours of study," said Mr. Breck
enridge. "In the list are included
many great dramatists such as Lady
Gregory, J. M. Synge, Lord Dunsay,
Eugene O'Neill, James Barrie, Hen
rick Ibsen, Oscar Wilde, and many
more popular dramatists. We have
included many recent stage successes
in our list for club study."
"The drama club will study not
only the plays, but the dramatists.
Material is recommended for the
study of each of the dramatists, and
when it is possible to do so, plays will
be choser from collections that offer
biographical material."
The association of drama clubs,
under the direction of the extension
division and the department of
speech at the University of South
Dakota, hopes to establish clubs in
every community in South Dakota.
The production of plays will be en
couraged, with regular programs of
play reading to keep the interest con
tinuous, said Mr. Breckenridge.
BLANCH CLARK VISITS
AGRICULTURAL COLLEGE
A recent visitor to the Agricul
tural College campus was Miss
Blanch Clark of the Better Homes of
America Association in Washington,
D. C. ?he had appointments with the
tome economics department relative
to the planning of the "Better
Homes" week in Nebraska which will
be b'ild the last week in April.
Article Features
This is about thirty miles northwest
of the Kansas monument The Ne
braska society bases its belief on the
original Pike documents, the topog
raphy of the country, and the Indian
village remain sfound at this place, y
Proposition Offered
The Nebraska Historic Society, in
this quarterly's issue of the Nebraska
History Magazine, offers a proposi
tion to the Kansas society, suggest
ing that an expert be chosen to visit
the route followed by Pike, to care
fully examine all documents cited by
each of the two societies, and to
render for publication a written de
cision relative to the correct location
of the spot at which this historic-'
episode took place.
An announcement from the Ne
braska Historical Society yesterday
stated that an article published earl
ier in the week by the Topeka State
Journal contains the only message of
any sort received as yet from Kansas
in regard to Nebraska's proposition
William E. Connelley, secretary of
the Kansas Historical Society, in this
article, says: "No fair person can
read Pike's account of his approach
to, his experiences in and his descrip
tion of the Pawnee republic village,
then fully examine the ruins and en
vironments of the Kansas site andi
not come to a conclusion that the
Kansas Historical Society has marked
the right place." .
Miss Bullock
Prepares Work
For Next Year
"This is an off-year for the Legis
lative Reference Bureau," declared
Miss Edna Bullock, director of the
Legislative Reference Bureau, in an
interview with a Webraskan re
porter.
"The reason that this is an off
year, however, is because it is not a
legislative year," continued Miss Bul
lock. "Next year our work will be
carried on at the legislative meet
ings." Because this is an off-year for the
Historical Society does not mean that
the members have been idle. All
during the time between meetings of
the legislatures, work must be car-,
ried on to prepare for the next meet
ing to come. The Society at this
time, these off-years, does all it can
to prepare material and make every
thing in readiness in various ways a3
well as they can foresee.
For more than a year, Miss Bullock
and her assistants in the Reference
Bureau have been preparing a book
for the taxpayers of Nebraska which
they will probably have ready to put
out sometime next month. The title
of the book is "The Taxpayers'
Handbook."
"The book," said Miss Bullock,
"gives a statement of revenue and
expenditures of the state as it is in
operation. It shows what the laws
are and how they operate. But it is
not a repetition of the statutes.'
Other work which is done by Miss
Bullock and her assistants is keeping
up the library and the blue book,
sending out material where it is de
sired or needed, keeping track of all
civic works throughout the state,
keeping a running account in their
heads of the material that is on the
shelves, and helping students with
final papers and theses.
Syracuse Professor
Says Cramming Is as
Crooked as Cheating
Syracuse, N. Y. (IP) The argu
ments of the Carnegie Tartan re
cently in defense of cramming be-
jfore examinations, were somewhat
refuted recently by Dr. Ross A. Bak-
Ser, head of the chemistry department
afcvSyracuse university.
"Cramming," he said, "is uneth
ical. No athlete would begin to
train for football half an hour before
the game, and mental training is on
the same order.
"It is just as crooked for a stu
dent to cram his head with innumer
able details at the last minute as it
is actually to carry written informa
tion into the examination room.
What is hastily collected is usually of
an unimportant nature and will
crowd out the fundamental ideas ga
thered during the whole semester."
A person of ordinary intelligence
he said, cannot gain by studying
madly an hour before the examina-
to keep up a good appearance.

The February issue of the Awgwan

cover page, drawn by Alan Klein,
portrays a big-hearted college boy,

Although the number of contribu

short poems by Kate Goldstein are
especially good. Those who submitted

it but it serves man, and the values
of life. To a Humanist all life is
sacred.
Humanism does not deny im
mortality. It is not a denial of God
but an attribute toward God. It is
not atheistic but tries to find and
investigate. It does not know if
there is a God or not. The Human-
Fist is called an Atheist because he
does not believe in personally direct
ed will and religious investigation.
"Theoism demands that the idea of
God must be remade. According t
the points cf view of Humanism, we
are divine and we living in a crea
tive world."
More than fifty attended the
luncheon which was held in the main
dining room of the Grand hotel at
12 o'clock yesterday. Next week,
Reverend Paul Johnson, pastor of
the Westminster Presbyterian church
will speak on "Theoism" in opposi
tion to the views of "Humanism."
