The Old, Old Story.
To pre. To press. Hclcase of the Au
ram, monthlv humorous publication of tic
UniTarsltT of Nebraska will W ma-lc at ex
actly 7:56 ocloek on the morning of the steenth
dv of Octovember." Who has not hcarJ the
Ulel
And the sequclt Ah. yes. It too anumls
id too familiar: "The editor (whoever he
may bj the story is the cam one year as
another) la forced to announce that Mean
of tha Awgwan, achcruled for 7:36 o'clock
this morning has been postponed for this, that
or aoma other reason until 8:11 o" clock next
Wednesday morning."
Then when next Wednesday moruing eoui. a
around but why continue further! Ti a
well known fact on the campus that at least
two delayi in publication must be announced
befor the actual release of the publication.
Wliat, if any, difference does it mnkc?
None, perhaps, as far as the quality of the
material within its covers is concerned. A good
joke ia a food joke tomorrow junt as fully iis
it is today and a poor specimi-n of wit can
certainly become no worse with aire.
It doea make a difference, however, in a
variety of other ways of more or le.st. im
portance. Continued action of wich a nature
tends towad making the magazine itself komc
thing of a laughing stock which even n pub
lication dedicated to humor can scarce afford.
On the part of certain students it creates
a sense, of disgust. Promptness of publication
is essential for any newspaper or ma.-izine
that hopea to continue with a favorable degree
of success. Furthermore, such delays neet s
sarily entail additional work for staff mem
bers and assistants, thus creating at times a
considerable degree of inconvenience for a
number of people.
Needless to say, delays in publication are
sometimes necessary. I'nexpected factors arise
iver which the editorial and business 8tafi'g
an have no control. Nevertheless, something
can be done in the way of withholding an
nouncement of release dates from the general
public until it is fairly certain that release
can actually be made nt the time indicated.
Continued postponements, whatever the
editor may or may not think, do not make
for favorable publicity. Much trouble could
be avoided and possibly the circulation of the
Awgwan would increase if a little more
thought were given to the matter of such
announcement! than has been given in the
past.
'The Royal Family.'
Another season of the University Players is
now in full swing. They opened last Friday
night what promises to be the most, successful
year in their brilliant history. The players are
now enjoying the inspiration of full houses
of delighted patrons.
The sale of season tickets to the student
of the university has far exceeded the prey
ions total over a period of five years. This is
largely due to the splendid work of the Corn
Cobs in their ticket selling campaign. Never
has any university been more fortunate in se
curing the active interest of such an enthusi
astic group for such a worthwhile endeavor.
The Corn Cobs merit the commendation of the
student body for their fine cooperation.
Ilut this docs not tell the whole story. The
succs of this season' productions rests now
upon the players themselves. They have their
"ffndinee ; they have an auditorium which is
nicely dressed up; they have the attention of
the attident body. It is now up to them to
maintain the high standards they have "t for
themselves, and give the student the highest
dramatis values which the stage can present.
Their beginning, with "The Royal Fam
ily," augurs very well. The comedy, which is
playing the rest of the week, wa superbly
done. It i light comedy, well-staged, and
excellently presented.
The story of three generations of a dra
matic family is artistically portrayed by
Frances McChesney, as the grandmother;
Augusta French, as the mother; and Dorsel
Jaeke as the daughter. What a trio! In their
intelligent understanding of their respective
roles, their work present arare blending of
three characters into one supreme passion : A
love- for the stage.
Inimitable Herb Yenne offers the audience
torn highly exhUirating comedy. As a happy-go-Heky,
faat spending son and brother, bis
work adds color, interest, and lots of laughter
to tha actioa. He hould have had more
lines; one eould hardly wait for him to get
en tha stage and start his delightful "horse

get a soft job with a fairly large wage. Kelt

The Youth Problem.
Omaha World Herald: "Give me," said
Stevenson, "the young man who ha brains
enough to make a fool of himself."
Perhaps modern youth is the answer to
Stevenson's prayer. At any rate Dr. L. A.
Pcehstein of the University of Cincinnati ex
plaina that modern parent have been out
witted by their son and daughters and that
is why there is a youth problem. The boys
and girls, he says, have been smart enough
to gang up on their parents, but not smart
enough to do the right thing with the gang.
This seems a sound enough conclusion but
for one thing. The fact that most of these
easy explanations and easy solution of the
youth problem overlook is that it is not a phe
nomenon peculiar to the present generation.
The youth problem is as old at bast as civili
zation. We rather suspect it is even older than
that, that its age is about the same as that of
the human race itself. "0 iempora! 0 mores I"
has been the lament of the elders from time im
memorial. "O bunk!" or words to that effect
has been the reply of youth.
fJutwardly the youth problem varies from
ffejieration to generation to fit the conditions
of its time. Its essential nature remains un-i
changed. It is the same now as it was when
it was found necessary to issue a special com- j
mandrnent to yrwth to "honor thy father and I
thy mother." Children it seems have been!
at the job of outwitting their parents and'
making fools of themselves for a long, long!
time and getMng away with it, too.
Dr. Pechstein would have parents start a
counter offensive by ganging up on their chil-
lren. He thinks if parent would set their i
feet down collectively on the social activities
of the youngster the result would be a lot i
more effective than setting them down one at
a time. Perhaps it would in union there is I
no doubt strength but it wouldn't solve any!

can do is to set a good example.
