STRONG MAN BEST FOR COLLEGE WORK Chancellor Avery 8&y Pale, Emaciated Student Is No Longer Ideal for Learning. TALKS PBIPAREDNZSS, TOO Lincoln, Sept 19. (Special.) The pale, emaciated ttudent with a hectic flush on hit cheeks if no longer the ideal toward which colleges work. Chancellor Samuel Avery aaid at much this morning in bit opening ad dress to the student body of the Uni versity of Nebraska in the chapel hall at Lincoln. "During my studies in Heidelberg," he continued, "one of the most suc cessful students that I knew weighed 190 sounds and was as expert in the turnverein as in his studies. Vigor in scholarship and a wholesome view of life are deoendent upon sound physical makeup. There can be no alliance between mental activity and bad vital organs. With health, too, should be happiness supported, like health, by moderation and well-regulated habits. But students should main the haooiness' that SDrinsrt from physical well-being a by-product, and not the main purpose of their univer sity work. In all their activities they should remember that moderation is still as Important as when Marcus Au- relius made it the keynote of bis phil osophy. The ardent pursuit of hap- ninei. esneciallv material pleasures, as has been observed by every thinker and philosopher from the earliest dawn of thought, too often defeats its : own ends. Discusses Preparedness. In discussing the proper conduct to secure the favorable opinion of mankind, the chancellor took occasion to discuss preparedness, at least in some phases. "I wish to emphasize the fact," he said, "that the real ob ject of the appropriation of these vast sums of money for national de fense has been to command the re : SDect of the world. "During the last summer our com paratively small regular army and . many thousands of militiamen have been atationed along the Mexican border. It has been stated again and asram that forbearance has been mis taken for. weakness and that respect . can only be gained by a display of force. Necessary as these prepara tions undoubtedly seem to the ma jority of our tellow citizens, ana inv nniiihle as it does seem in the ores' ent development of our race to dis pense entirely with force, yet the use ' of force to obtain respect is after all ' a relatively small factor in securing the favorable ooinion of mankind. Perhaps no one used force more ruth- . i v i t-..:i j : icssiy man piapoicwn hi uuuuiiih up ' his etnnire. Still Bvron was con strained to say, 'Yet men's thoughts were uie steps wi yvu ui; tuiw!. Command Respect. "Nearly every man present remem bers how be was oniigea to pouna with his fists one or two of his play-mat- brtnrr ihev would resoect him, Rut the incidents were so rare and the necessity for their use so seldom that only a small fraction of the re ' soect of playmates was obtained through force. So also the major nnrtion of the resoect that comes to men and nations is derived in other wave. To this general rule universi ties and university students are no i "Perhaps the most characteristic difference between a university and any other organization is that the for mer must stand at all times for abso Una truth. States mav exist and do I beneficent work for their people and still be permeated with corruption. We r ! to admit this in connection with any system of government other than our own, and many of our fel low citizens do not make an exception in this respect So also religious sys tems full of error may do much for the welfare of mankind. If the living ' vine of glorious faith clings to the dead branches of the dogma of the past, I would be the last to wish to ' null them rudely apart.

"Now, I do not mean that a univer irv will not be colored bv the feeling! and prejudices of its constituency, but a great scholar and teacher must rise . , . , , - :u a DOVe SUCn inings. inc iiiubviv Patriotism, relimon and popular edu cation in Japan may unite to teach that the island empire has been under the tmidance of a sin ale family for nearly thirty centuries, and that 'he present mikado it the direct lineal descendant of the son of Heaven. But, u a japan. m university should seriously teach, or one of its scholars try to defend this claim, the university would lose mucn n h mnrrt of the world. A uni versity cannot afford to ahield error for the sake of expediency. We can not teach doctrines which we know to be false or absurd, because the , miMi- minil deiirea that thev be taught If the public still believed the world to be flat and was fanatical in this view, the university would, in spite of this fact, be obliged to teach rnncmiran system, though It might possibly refrain from constantly agitating inc suujcn m papers, especially during a legislative session.

REGORY APPEALS READfflGRATE CASE Attorney General Calls Com pany Backbone of Alleged Monopoly in Anthracite. WILL CONTROL THE SUPPLY Washington, Sept 19. Attorney General Gregory today filed a brief in the supreme court in his appeal from the decision of a federal district court in Pennsylvania, refusing the government's plea for dissolution un der the Sherman anti-trust act and the commodities clause of the railroad rate act of the Reading company, called the "backbone of the alleged monopoly of anthracite.' The combination, ths brief says, has history permeated with illegality and characterized by a deliberate pur pose to drive others from the field. resulting in increased Drices out of proportion 10 increase) iiiuum.uun costs. The government contends in its brief that Reading Holding company (the Reading company) through its subsidiaries Reading Coal 'company and Reading Railway company, con trols the nroductlon. transportation and sale of anthracite coal from lands in the Schuylkill region tributary to the lines of Reading Railway com pany, and that this control was ac quired and is maintained Dy otner nan normal methods of industrial development 1 "At the current rate of mining.' the brief savs. "the coal areas of the companies, thus leagued and combined toaether. according to tne generally accepted calculations of geologists and mining engineers, will outlast by many years those of any ompetitor. in time, therefore, this combination if not dissolved will own or control every ton of commercially available anthracite known to exist, and whilst in almost anv other branch of indus try it is at least possible tor a mon- onlv of anthracite, the suddIv of which is limited, there can be no such pro tectiononly the law can anqrd re lict."

KAISER MOVES MAIN OFFICE TO EAST Great headquarter. Which Di rects AH Campaigns Trant Jerred from France. NEW POLICY IS INDICATED London, Sept 19.-The Wireless Press today gave out a Berne dis patch quoting the Suddeutsche Zei tung to the effect that the German great general staff has been moved from the western to the eastern front The great German headquarters which directs operations on all fronts and at which the emperor and chief of staff spend much of their time was in Belgium in tne eariy weens oi war and subsequently was moved to northern France. In the spring of 1915 it was at a town near Lille. Ac cording to unofficial reports it was transferred later to a small village further east. Since the appointment of Field Marshall von Hindenburg as chief of staff it has been reported that he de sired to leave in France and Belgium sufficient men to hold the line and devote his energies to the east for he is credited with the belief that it is on this front that the first conclusive victories must be won.. Last week he returned from France to the eastern front It was alsojre ported that Emperor William, Chan cellor von Bethmann-Hollweg and representatives of Austria-Hungary, Bulgaria and Turkey were at the east ern headquarters for a conference which was to decide the shaping of the campaign in the east. CANADIANS MAKE 600DIN BATTLE (CutUMNd rrK r.f On..) the colossal plan of the Somme offen sive. In other words General Byng understood that, given a goal, the men of North America would go to it with all there was in them, ready to take a pinch hit chance. The correspondent went over the ground today where they went to it and saw where they stuck in trenches under shell fire which they had gained after their second charge and which were not in the original plan. The night before the battle the staff of ficer in charge of that branch of the front showed the correspondent the Canadian objective. No home run was expected from them, but only a sac rifice fly, to use base ball language, but they made a home run and brought in ail the men on the bases. They gained their first objective in an uninterrupted dash absolute on '"There' was the trench which the "Byng boys" held on the morning of the fifteenth, as the correspondent saw it today. Behind it and ahead of it shell craters were so thick that you could step from one to another. Hav ing taken their objective, their part was finished, but General Byng de cided, despite the complicated time table-methods of a modern offensive, that he could go further. . The com manders of British corps of alLkinds from Cockneys to the clerks, stock brokers and farm hands of the new army, made the same decision. So they worked in conjunction as every thing in these big moves must be co operation and team play. Capture of Courcelette. 'Tnnfnnnd cost and everything else," said the Canadians, their nerves strained tft the breaking point in their determination to make good on their first offensive; when the word was given, they started for Courcelette, which they were ordered to take. Now this village had been "less crumpled" then any yet captured. There were some battered rafters of roofs still in osition. That is, Courcelette had had less hammering by preparatory sneu nre. 10 tneir new oojeiuve, however, went these fighters of the new world, including men from as far south as New Orleans, as well as men from Nova Scotia and Vancouver. They were determined to get there and make good and they got there. When no word came back for some time, the staff, sitting in the center of the web of telephone aand tele graph wires over which was flashing the news of the progress of the great battle, began to wonder if the Canad ians were in' trouble.
