Tho general lack of football entnus iasm and tho failure of crowds to turn out to the games has been a subject of comment since the lirst game of the season. The mass meeting in chapel on last Friday was fairly well attend ed and considerable spirit was shown. However, not as many tickets were pledged as should have been. Of course every one is busy with their work, but they, should at least encourage the team. A part of tho students and a Bmall part of the faculty attend the games but it is always the same ones at every game. We venture to say that some students have been here one, two, or even three years and havo not seen a single game of lootball. A part of the members of the faculty and some assistants have been here even longer, some almost a decade and have not aided the team in the least. They havo even gone farther than that by increasing the difficulties atteiulent upon making up back work, they have even hlndred tho team. While wo do not advocate letting -the men slip through their classes, we think it would bo only fair for the professors to inconvenience themselves a little in order to help the boys along. Many of them do it and receive the good will of the students in return, but others are indifferent. Ail students and prof essors and instructors and assistants, should contribute their mite to the success of tho team. We expect much of the team and should be anxious to to give it any legitimate aid. Plans havo been made during the past week to enable the University to have an engineers' society. Many of the technical schools have such an or ganization and are able to support it profitably. Here, wo havo threo so cieties, one in each group and all struggling equally hard for existence. By combining forces, these threo bodies will Iorm a strong organization, able to demand recognition among like societies of other colleges. Tho Chicago Record of a few days ago contained a few words from Presi dent Harper of tho University of Chi cago to his students, regarding health. A perusal of this notice brought to view the oft discussed topic of, "high pressure" in colleges. It really is a serious question whether tho colleges and universities of tho country dovolop tho youth of our land ovonly by this crowding mothod. Would not half tho work, half tho tlmo spent In culturo studies, produco a far bettor man or woman If ho or sho bo allowed tlmo for Bolf dovolopment? Aro wo really nothing but automatons with all tho originality crowded out of ua by re quired work? To revert to tho health sldo; young men and women In at least tho first two years of collego llfo should havo half tho day for recrea tion tlmo to learn outsldo affairs If you wish to call It such. If this con dition existed nerve forco would bo generated and stored. A student day of eight hours Is equal to a laborer's day of eighteen hours and consequent ly tho student needs moro tlmo for recreation and relaxation from tho attention of close application to his studies. Upon the college newspaper are placed many responsibilities. There are many things which it should do and some things which it should bo There are also many things which it should not do and some things which it should not be. in the first place, it should not misrepresent the college which fosters and supports it. Its first duty lies In avoiding this fatal shoal. And no matter what its pretentions, no matter what Its intentions, tho facts will speak louder than its words and will rise up continuously and for ever to condmn it. Again it should not be narrow and selfish in its view of tho collego world which it is in duty bound to mirror truthfully, faith fully and completely. Virtue, ability, and conscience are never found exclus ively and only n a particular group, large or small. It is a college paper's duty to be able to see the good and the evil, wherever they may happen The rirroRD-tiead "Book Club $atc flecks holidau and other books and current MaQazinea at special priees to our subiteribers.

This is only another way of sr.ylng that tho collogo papor must not bo partisan. It does not sufflco to repeat in moro words that it is representative and non-partisan. Its deeds like a man's acts speak much louder than its words. What it is, its readors know bocauBO thoy seo and not because they hear lto claims made. Professors of tho University of No braska aro quito often highly honored, however, not so often that wo can afford to lot a caso go by without mention. Somo tlmo ago Professor Fossler recognized tho literary worth of Roscggor's "Forest School Master" nnd had It placed in tho University as a text. Now its worth is recognized by overyone and a translation of it is to appear as a serial story in tho Critic beginning with tho November number. THE LIBRARY.
