Annex Idea Turned Down Annual
Dues Increased and Officers
Chosen for Year.
Irt annual meeting fnturday nlffht the
Omaha club flatly turned dau-n a tiroposl
tion to build an expensive annex to tho
present club house, with a plan In view to
erect an entirely new home within the next
few yars. The sum of (0.009 will prul
ably be expended on the proposed new
structure. '
Following the gr-nnral sehemo to raise
funds and ktep up the Ktandard the club
voted to Increase tho membership dure in
the organlaation from $G annually to $104.
This rate will apply for the uevt two yea re
Bt least. l'aymenU aie to be made In
quarterly Installments ot $2f each, Instead
of $IS under the old plan.
Officer for the year were chosen aa
follows: rrealdeiit. Myryn Jo. Ijearned,
vloe president, W. M. Uurgrss; secretary,
C I D'uel. Tho board of directors will
consist of Jnveph Cuduhy, M. L. Learned
and Oeorse U. Peck. Joseph Cuduhy la
tho only new member o. t:ie directorate,
aucctHdlug Victor Caldwall. The other
members of tbe board eud the general
officers succeed themselves.
"There la no question but what the club
needs more commodious quarters," said
Secretary Deuel. "Our membership to day
Is 3i0 active members, and our present
quarters are Inadequate.
"The prnpoaltlon to build an annex to
the present building at Twentieth and
Lou! streets did not meet with favor.
Instead of improving" what we have the
members have expressed the sentiment that
they itant something more' 46minodloua,

"It Is probable the club will build a new
home within the next three years and will
spend approximately 12&O.000 on the pro

As a preliminary step In the direction of
establishing instruction In agricultural edu
cation in the proxmlty of New York,
course of thirteen lectures on economic
agriculture will be offered Under the
faculty of applied science at Columbia unl
verstty, beginning on Tuesday, January
18, and" continuing on successive Tuesdays.
Theae lectures, while dealing with scien
tific aspects of the subjects announced In
the course, will be divested aa hutch as
possible of technicalities. The - Instruction
will be of a practical nature, not only to
those who are directly engaged In farm
operations, but also to any who are inter
fitted in the agricultural conditions and
problems of the country.
The Introductory lecture on the develop
ment of agriculture and country Ufa, as
well as several of the succeeding lectures,
will be delivered by Mr. George T. Powell,
president ot the Agricultural Experts as
sociation.

HONOR SYSTEM AT PIUNCKTON.
Satisfactory. Results Indicated on Its
Analveraary.
Tomorrow, January 18, Is the seventeenth
anniversary of tbe institution of the Honor
System of holding examinations at Prince
ton university, and the, mid-year ex
aminations beginning on the 27th ot this
month will be the eighteenth set held
without faculty espionage of any sort. Dur
ing these years there has been no question
of the unqualified success of the practice.
and it is believed that the very few cases
of cheating detected and punished have
been practically all that ever took place.
'I pledge' my honor as a gentleman
that, during this examination, I have
neither given nor received assistance."
That pledge, with the signature of the
student taking the examination, has
taken the place of the old system of hav
ing- profeeaora keep watch during testa.
It applies to every examination taken by
a studttat In Princeton university, but, of
course, not to entrance examinations,
taken before matriculation.
Princeon men consider themselves under
the obllagtion to report any cheating that
might come undor their observation In an
examination. . Trial of the accused Is held
by an undergraduate committee, and a
verdict of guilty results In the offender's
having the privilege of withdrawing fron
tbe university within twenty-four hours or
appealing to the faculty for a review ot
the decision.
In 1803, when the system was inaugu
rated, there was a strong sentiment among
the students against the mode of con
ducting examinations then prevailing. Not
only was the practice of watching to
prevent and detect cheating keenly felt,
but the shame of the existing state ot
affairs was oonsidered highly derogatory
to the moral standards of the students
themselves.
The students suggested to the faculty
that examination be conducted along lines
similar to those in the University of Vir
ginia, and on January IS, 1S03, the faculty
adopted a resolution which recognized the
repugnance of the students for cheating
and the desire to have the examinations
so conducted that they would be put on
their honor not to cheat. The r solution
abolslhed' faculty supervision and estab
lished the pledge.
Nowadays, if a professor Is In the room
during a test. It Is only to answer ques
tions that students may want to ask. The
men may leave the room and even the
building. If they wish; their pledge gives
them the utmost freedom.
The result of the system has been that
cheating Is far from the mind of the man
taking an examination. Home violation
have been- detected, probably all thosj
which took place, but they have been very
few and confined mostly to freshmen who
did not realize the full Import of their
responsibility and the reproach connected
with their offense. The Honor Hyitem is
a living Ideal held to by each student in
Princeton with a seal that brings it as
mar to absolute perfection aa such a
system can be brought.
