it.'
"She did. And when the notifi
cation came as she sat down at
her typewriter in the country town
newspaper office she looked over
at me and said: 'I got It.'
"That was all. In 15 seconds she
was back at work. She continued
to cover her beat, six days in the

to leave for New York City. She's
like that, is Elizabeth Kelly."

.All I'niversity church night Inst riMny
did not ha vc to compote with funny papers and
the chronic desire i'or Sunday mornina; sleep.
Pastors of 11 of the more prominent religious
sects reported to the Xcbrnskim n total of 1,082
students at their combined student at their
comliined student night church parties. This is
nlinost one-third of the total enrolment.
The Neliraskan's survey of last week
showed that far fewer students attend church
regularly than were present at the All I'niver
city church night functions. AYe feel that the
social attraction at Friday night's affairs was
responsible for the larger number of students
attending. Ye doubt whether a change of
regular church services to some time in the
evening would cause more students to bo
present.
. The Xebniskan shares the feeling, which is
not (iiite a conviction, with most students that
universal student attendance at church would
ba .beneficial. The churches have no strong
hold upon us as students. They represent mul
titudinous faiths, which we accept with per
sonal modifications. Our faiths arc not crys
tallized. Hut we are neither faithless nor godless.
Nor have we thrown off the moral ballast ac
quired at home and in Sunday school. Ve rec
ognize the churches as a moral force, institu
tions necessary to society. "We go sometimes
and are warmed and uplifted. The reminders
from home to attend more often help, as does
the church advertising.
Bear with us. "We're just young.

College education has become a fad. Our
colleges are overcrowded because of a great
gjut of students either unfit or tmdesirou.s of
highc education. Educators have been work
ing on the problem of weeding out the incapa
ble. Jlutchins of Chicago has been the leader
in the fight. IVor scholarship has been the
standard for elimination in most plans.
According to Time magazine for Sept. 27,
when Dean dohu .Hlack Johnston of Minne
sota's college of science, literature, and arts
retired recently, be published a treatise en
titled "Scholarship ami Democracy," which
should give impetus to llutchiiis' idea. Like
JIutehins, Johnston feels that there are entirely
too many students at the educational trough,
lie recognizes the fallacy in the old democratic
truism, "Education for all." All aren't fitted
for higher education. Many don't want it.
To abolish the great waste in education.
Dr. Johnston suggests sliding scale fees. Honor
students would pay no fees; those who pass.
$80; the less callable or less willing, $200, and
1hc dullards. $401).
Basis for Dr. Johnston's plan of sliding
scale fees rests on scholarship figures he has
compiled at Minnesota. Cil'ty-t w o percent of
the l.-toS who matriculated in 1!V.1 never be
came successful students. M' the children of
the poor, 15 percent won honor standing, 58
percent did satisfactory work.
Children of ihe well to do provided 0.5
percent of those who received honors; 42 per
cent did passing work. Only one out of every
1.600 laborers in Minnesota sends a child to the
university. One out of every 21 financiers is
represented.

Girl of Month, She Gets What
She Goes After That's Miss
Elizabeth Kelly, Says Maga
zine. I Continued from Page 1.)
no truer words than those appear
ing in Good Housekeeping could be
spoken. A small girl from a small
publicity seeking town, Miss Kelly
does get what she goes after. As
excerpts from the. mag.i.'.iae state:
"A .dream came true for Miss
Elizabeth Kelly, 22 year old small
town newspaper reporter, when,
with a year's scholar. ship tucked
under her arm, she entered Colum
bia university tins fall. She went
with the Gilbert M. Hitchcock
scholarship, provided annually by
the widnw of the late Nebraska
senator-newspaper publisher, for
the outstanding young journalist
of his state. Miss Kelly is the first
young woman to be chosen.
"In the year at Columbia this
Nebraska City, Neb., girl expects
to complete her master's degree.
After that-well, she hopes she'll
be able to get ahead with her writ
ing. A desk in the editorial room
of a city newspaper; a column,
perhaps; at least n job as a writer
of feature yarns the sort of news
paper slories people remember
after they've forgotten the page
one headlines. Those are the ambi
tions of this mite of a girl, whose
work, since her graduation from
the University of Nebraska school
of journalism little more than a
year apo, has been that of a re
poiler cuveiiiiK H daily beat.
"A woman's job on a newspa
per? Editing a society page or
writing sob stuff? Not Miss Kelly.
"And when Elizabeth entered the
university, her brothers saw her
through the first year. After her
small town shyness vore off she
went on her own and never earned
less than half of her way. She
clerked in stores, did some writing
for a Lincoln newspaper, went out
for "activities" and took part in
the social life of the university,
worked on the college daily, was
treasurer of her sorority and in
her senior year its president. The
last of the Kelly children was
graduated In 193.
