Thanks to a
Loyal Staff.
When the time for leave-taking
arrives, retiring "execu
tives" are likely to realize more
fully than ever before, their
great indebtedness to assistants
and associates whose faithful
work has made any kind of a
finished product possible. To
the staff of men and women
who have labored together
throughout the semester the re
tiring editor expresses his ap
preciation, and takes leave of
them with the best of good
wishes.
The Final
Word.
JT its a well-established principle
of collegiate journalism that at
least once during the semester an
editor shall be entitled to discuss
his professional activities in pub
lic. In the discussion, the cam
paigns of the semester are re
viewed, a tear or two is sometimes
dropped over the sundry ideals
that have fallen by the wayside,
and the editor has a general good
time at the expense of his long
suffering readers.
This time, however, no extended
analysis of the semester's work
will be attempted. A rather limi
ted number of topics claimed our
attention, it seems in retrospect,
and in reviewing them none stands
out as likely to be world-shaking,
but that is not a disappointing
thing to discover for the semester
was begun with a rather clear
realization of the path that lay
ahead.
There have been times when the
labor of turning out general obser
vations on the state of the campus
or the affairs of the nation has
been a dull task, but on the whole
there have been enough interesting
things going on to make the edi
torial vantage point an enviable
position to occupy. Omniscence
hasn't been achieved, naturally
enough, but there have been
enough opportunities for observa
tion to make it possible for us to
pass on to our readers something
of our impressions and our
thoughts.
pROM time to time affairs of the
campus have concerned us as
some organization or some student
action stirred the stagnant "activi
ties" waters. When student or fac
ulty groups fell below the ideal
standards set for them, the result
has often been editorial reprimand
or a cry for reformation, and this
we conceive to be the duty of
every editor, just as it is pleasant
job to commend actions that come
up to ideal standards or surpass
them.
But of this we have become con
vinced: there is nothing to be
gained by editorial lamenting
when cries go unheeded. Reor
ganization is always a slow and
delicate business, and it isn't likely
that any one school year will see
much progress, no matter what
the activity involved. (This by
way of solace to our successors).
A one-semester term, at best,
can be little more than a constant,
careful examination of all the
things that go to make up the af
fairs of the campus, and in that
respect we are firm believers in
the permanent prophylactic value
of the Nebraskan.
gUT all the attention hasn't been
devoted to things of the camp
us. There has been a constant ef
fort to extend the horizon of stu
dent interest beyond the limita
tions of college and class room.
We have tried to hammer home
the idea that things are going on
in the world and that these things
should be of vital interest to every
undergraduate and every faculty
member. It is not often that
changes in a social structure can
be recognized as they occur, but in
the last year or so there has been
growth and change in which every
American has taken part, willy
nilly, consciously or not.
To place some glimpse of the
shifting scene before our readers,
insofar as youthful ability and un
derstanding has permitted, has
been a steadfast aim. In this di-

rection our efforts have not been
wholly futile, if occasional com
ments from readers can be taken
as an indication. It is heartening
to realize, too, that the endeavor
has been worthwhile, and in this
connection we would call attention
to a letter from an alumnus which
appears in today's "Student Pulse"
column a letter we would en
grave on the minds of our student
readers.
"THEN there have been the phil
osophizings and the "analyses"
of educational and pedagogical
topics. These are the stock ma
terial of the student editor, to
which he must turn on the days
when all other possibilities have
been rejected.
We cannot feel that the words
have been entirely wasted, how
ever, for occasionally some chance
phrase or wandering idea may
have stimulated someone, some
where, to reinspect his own ideas
of matters educational in the light
of the most recent condemnation
or the most recent theorizing.
So much for the various mat
ters that have been the editorial
mainstays of the semester. It goes
without saying that this, the sixty-fifth
semester for the Nebras
kan, has been productive of as
much enjoyment for the editor as
all the previous semesters have
for the previous editors.
It has meant work. Sometimes
it has meant anguish. But now
the cycle of the semester is almost
over, and a new staff is ready to
take over the direction of the
sheet for another semester.
We bow ourselves out, and com
mend our successors to the read

HEAVY fl frequently makes sluggish thinkers. So
take the advice of veteran students and eat Kellogg's
Rice Krispies the delicious rice cereal that satis
fies hunger without "bogging" you down. .
Those crisp, crunchy bubbles are fine at any
meal. The way they crackle in milk or cream always
appeals to the appetite. Nourishing and easy to
digest. Extra good with canned fruit or honey.
Ask for Kellogg's Rice Krispies at your campus
restaurant, fraternity house or eating club. Don't
forget to enjoy a bowlful after a long study
session at night. You'll sleep better. Made
by Kellogg in Battle Creek.
