the stigma implied by the term
"Barb," an appellation which is
unceremoniously slapped onto all
of us individuals who fail to
pledge a fraternity or sorority
by the end of our first six weeks
in college; but, we managed to
give vent to our fervent feelings
thru other outlets than this col
umn until we unluckily chanced
to espy the exact meaning of the
word in Webster the other day,
and since then nothing will suf
fice us. Just the mere connota
tions of the word are bad enough
when one says "Barb" he im
mediately begins to think of
fences, fish hooks, spead heads
and poisoned darts but the
meaning given to it by Webster
is absolutely unendurable.
Webster says of it: "A man
in a rude, uncivilized, state, but
ahove that f)f a savan?! an un
cultured person; a brutal man;
one desitute of pity or human
ity." However close we moderns
may approach the 'uncivilized' I
state at times, it is, of course,
obvious that the unaffiliates on j
the campus are no closer than ;
the Greeks. But still the term re-!
mains to rankle. How much less I
and evil sounding are such words j
as "non-orgs," "unaffiliates'' or j
"independents." .
BarhariMiis?
Just in case you wondered, we
looked up the meaning of the word
"Barbarisms too and found it to
be : "Ignorance of arts, learning
and literature; an outrage; an'
offense against purity of style or!
language." We must admit that, at'
least insofar as it applys to this!

ining. hiking, and camping, using
fire arms and engaging in ath
letics. It is an age when youth
begins to fsce the real problems
of environment. It is natural then. ,
that high schools should stress the
prevention of various types of ac- j
cidents common to this age."
Much time was devoted to gath- j
ering the material for this proj-'

achievement which reflects the

true aim of higher education that
of guiding civilisation to a higher
place of living.
Five Areas In Setup.
Its general setup provides for a
ocsidcratlon of five areas as the
authors speak of them. These are:
First, motor vehicle accidents;
second, other public accidents; third
agricultural employment; fourth,
industrial employment: and fifth,
home and school accidents. Each of
these areas has been broken up
into four to six units for class
room treatment in connection with
existing courses of study.
Illustrative of the manner In
which one of these areas has been
treated, the authors discuss such
subjects as: "The automobile it)
modern life," "Playing safe with
the automobile," ' "Safety first
highways," "What constitutes safe
driving," etc.
The two educators also include
a complete bibliography of source
materials and a chapter dealing
with "Safety in the storage, care
and handling of oxy-acetylenc
welding and cutting." This new pro-,
gram originating in Nebraska is
not intended for juvoiiles alone.
It goes further than that, since
it has a miscellaneous assortment
of materials of great value to
shops and factories. Almost every
type of accident is dealt with,
including even the careless using
of the sewing machine and other
household appliances.
Program Memorial.
A review of the death toll from
car accidents alone suggests that
any improvement that might come
from such a safety program would
stand as a lasting memorial to the
ambition and insight of there two
Lincoln men. That the country
needs to be aroused from its
lethargy as it concerns the acci
dent problem, is best vouched for
by an acquaintance with some of
the following statistics:
"Automobiles in this country
reach the alarming fatality record
of one life every 15 minutes during
1935,' the authors write. "Besides
the immense number of deaths,
more thin a million people were
injured during that year. Looking
at it anotht r way, cne person out
of every hundred was injured in
a motor vehicle last year, and fol
lowing this same line of reasoning
one might expect that one of each
two persons now living stands
a chance of being injured within
t Virt n T.rt imn .D O 11.1 rillt rtf f rtl tl
within the next 25 years.
Accidents Boost Death Toll.
Accidents are tne roremosi
cause of death among children of Miss Esther Anderson, assistant
school age. About 15.000 children professor of geography, spoke be
under 15 arc killed in this way, fore members of the Junior Civic
each year. Among those under 5,
burns are the chief cause of acci
dental death, while motor vehicle
accidents top the list for children
5 to 19. As the educator sees it,
accidents to juveniles are respon
sible for 1.SOO.000 days lost in a
single school year.
It is inconceivable. Dr. Rosen
lof and Mr. Grossochme feel, that
the American people are going to

slaughter and waste as a result
of accidents. The only reason that
such a condition IS tolerated today
is because most persons think that !
our fine motor cars arc at stake.
This is a mistaken idea, they point
out, since there is no reason why :

Safety Hints.
Among the safely driving hints,
the authors list the following:
1. Take lessons from an au
thorized teacher.
2. Learn your weaknesses and
try to overcome these personal
handicaps.
3. Develop alertness and power
of concentration.
4. Drive only when your mind
is free to devote complete at
tention to your driving.
5. Obey all traffic laws.
6. Be courteous behind the
wheel.
7. Check the mechanical .ef
ficiency of your car.
"There can be no one cause of
accidents. Haste, liquor, ignorance,
chance taking, defects of mind and
bodv. defects in highways, and the
vehicle all play their part," says
Dr. Hosenlof. "If ench individual
does his part, the fight against an
increasing death toll is all but
wen."
Objectives.
General objectives in safety edu
cation: 1. To develop in the minds of the
high school students an apprecia
tion of their personal responsibil
ity in the matters of safe living,
accident and fire prevention.
2. To develop character traits
which will result in good citizen
ship and co-operation with law en
forcement agencies.
3. To bring about a safety Hand
edness which should result in the
reduction of accidents to a mini
mum. 4. To teach the fundamental
facts relating to physical, mental,
and emotional laws which have di
rect bearing upon accidents.
5. To develop a desire and will
ingness on the part of students to
refrain from that titanic sin care-
lesfiiess which is the- cause of the
major part of all accidents.
6. To teach the principles of
construction and operation of the
automobile.
7. To study city and state laws
governing pedestrian, bicycle, au
tomobile, and other vehicular traf
fic. 8. To study city, state and na
tional laws on accident and fire
prevention.

March Weather
Breaks Records
Of Precipitation
Prof. T. A. Blair of the loca,
weather bureau announces old man
weather broke two records last
month. On the day of March 23,
the record for one hour's precipita
tion was raised from .38 of an inch
to .43. The record for the down
fall in two hours was also raised
from .64 to .6" of an inch.
This all went along to help bring
us the 2.3S inches of moisture dur
ing the month of March, far above
the normal, which is 1.27 for tht
month. This raised the total pre
cipitation for the first three
months of the year to 3.96 inches,

which Is an inch and a half ubove
normal.
Weatherman Blair said this is a
good start toward catching up on
the rain we missed last year. We
only received 14.09 inches in the
last 12 months, which is only about
half the normal amount. Iast year
was the driest we have had here
since the establishment of the local
weather bureau.
The geological survey depart
ment gave out the comforting
tidings that the subsoil water level
was only slightly below normal,
and that there was no danger in
sight to our water supply. There
are a few sections of the state
where the wells are dry, but it is
not serious and shows no signs of
getting worse. The recent rains
have raised the water level some
what, but there was not enough to
make a material change.
Most of the damage from a low
water table would be to trees and
some of the grasses. Many of the
trees, especially the older ones,
were killed as a result of last
year's drouth, and anothrr similar
dry spell would undoubtedly kill
many other trees, but at the pres
ent thorn Is nlentv of subsoil water.
