: " THE BEE; uMAHA, MONDAY, JULY 28, 1919. v - S . -SCHOOLS AND COLLEGES- . i ,. FRENCH HONOR TEACHER FROM NEBRASKA UNI Prof. M. M. Fogg, Dean of Journalism, Is Given Recognition of Worth. ' Prof. M. M. Fogg, formerly dean of the college of journalism at the University" of Nebraska, has been ' signally honored by the French re- ..ti: .u:.t 1 i.i t: !il jjuuiii., wuii. ii una awuacu mm wnn the Palmes Acadeniique in recogni tion of his services as an educator. The honor was accorded Professor Fogg following the termination of his services as director of the college of journalism of the American ex- peditionary force university at Beaune, Cote d'Or, France. The edu cator has just returned to this coun try and is at present visiting at Trenton, N. J., where many of his friends and relatives are located. An honorary commission of cap tion has also been conferred upon Professor Fogg by the government of France. M. Leferre, minister ot public instruction and of the fine arts, conferred the honor upon the Nebraska instructor in the presence of a large company of noted French educators, generals, other army of ficers and five regiments of the A. E. F. university students. The medal is conferred only upon those individuals who have attained high distinction in scienct-or in let ters. r Prior to his departure from France Professor Fogg toured the western battle front on the personal invita tion of General Pershing. Boyles Graduates Go to the Fore in the Omaha Banking World Frequently the newspapers con tain items about the advancement of young men in the business world anl it often happens that these items tell of graduates of Boyles college who have attained high places m the banking business. "I.want to say .a few words about two young men who have distin guished themselves in banking," said H. B. Boy.cs. "One of these is Thoma F. Mur phy, assistant cashier of the United States National bank, one of the largest banks in the west. The other is Chas. W. Mead, secre'ary of the Omala Y.ust company, a corpor . tion of large financial resources." Mr. Murphy, during his student days with Boyles college, showed a s particular aptness in bookkeeping and accountancy. He decided that banking was his future and immed iately after receiving.his diploma ac cepted a place with the United States National bank. He was aim ing high. No man in Omaha has made a more marked success and the why . and wherefore of that success can best be gleaned from Mr Murphy's own words: "The training 1 re ceived at Boyles college has enabled me to attain a monthly salary equal to my ANNUAL starting salary with the same institution." Mr. Mead's success has been equally startling in themanner in which it points the open way to sal arv and oromotion for aily one with ambition, plus training. Upon his graduation from Boyics college he took a clerkship in an Omaha bank. He Ttept an eye open for opportun ity, and when the Maskell State bank needed a cashier he was ready for the position. He made such a name for himself there that, recently whtn the officers and directors of the Omaha National, Nebraska's largest bank, organized the Om.ha Trust company, they chose Charles W. Mead as its secretary. It's a big post, but he has reached it in eight years after leavin j Boyles college. He says Boyles trainipg did much to help him make good. t University of Omaha Launches Drive to - Raise $500,000 for Endowment Fund Plan New History Course for Central High School Principal J. G. Masters of the Cen tral High school is working upon a plan to revise the course of study in the history department of the high ichool. According to the present plan, all students are required to study Greek, Roman and American history. In order to complete the other requirements necessary for graduation, the student does not have time to take courses offered in modern European history. Mr. Masters considers it essential that students should s know some thing of contemporary European history and at the same ttiffe learn something of Greek and Roman his tory, and it is with the view of com bining the three courses in one that Mr. Masters is contemplating tne change. v "The new course would cover Greek and Roman history in less than one semester," said Mr. Mast- Boston Garter The comfort and long service you - enjoy in wearing Boston Garter are the result of our fixed policy Quality First 1 6C0ROC FROST CO.

The University of Omaha, an in stitution which has grown from practically nothing to one of the most powerful institutions in the country in less than 10 years, rs to be ex tended. The board of trustees and officers of the university have agreed to raise a fund of $500,000 , in this city for an immediate extension of the institution, creation of ne"w de partments and enlargement of others. The University of Omaha was founded, by a group of representa tive citizens, all well known business and professional men, on October 8, 1908, to conduct and maintain a co educational university for the pro moting of sound learning and edu cation, under such influence as will !ead to the highest type of Christiam character and citizenship in Omaha. The idea was to create an institution where at the least possible expense all classes of young men and women may secure an education that would fit them to enter at once upon the successful pursuit of an honorable vocation. Established 10 Years. Though the university was organ ized in October, 1908, it did not open its doors until November 1, 1909, when 26 students enrolled. During the school semester, just closed, 540 students attended the Omaha university. The university now needs en dowment to .firmly establish it. It needs added equipment to in crease its efficiency and means to extend its educational service to Greater Omaha. The raising has been sanctioned by the board of trustees of the university and is now under way. The university will conduct an or ganized, well established campaign along firm lines, and expect to can vass the entire city in the interest of the institution.. This fund, which is to be raised, immediately and in the shortest possibly time, will per mit a forward movement in a gen eral way; it assures a larger and permanent faculty of the highest type, and guarantees an enlarged in stitution, a greater constituency and more influence. Benefit to City. This assures the city a co-educational college offering a complete and comprehensive training, a lo calized educational service, an in spirational educational center and a ers. "It would also cover the be ginning of the European nations and study their history in relation to the world war and to the United states." It is not probable that the course will be-, ready when school opens in September as Mr. Masters, who has been planning the-course for six months, has not yet found a text book that can be used for the course. York College. York College, York, Neb., has a large student enrollment for the summer school, the largest since 1913, and so far we know the largest in the history of the institution, writes the dean. There are enrolled in the departments of the college this summer 22 different students. If this is an earnest of our fall en rollment we should have one of the best enrollments in the history of the school. There are four men in the. field now for students. They are turning in a large number of names who contemplate entering this fall. Every indication points to a big school. Never have we had the conservatory rooms all engaged so early in the year. There is not a vacant room at the conservatory. Indeed indications are that we could use another building for a girls' dormitory this fall. We will have to depend upon the friends of the college to help us house the girls as well as the boys this coming year. We are very fortunate to secure F. E. Frank to coach our foot ball 'tarn. It was a happy find in every ay. He comes with excellent ex perience and with the entire confi dence of all the lettered men of other days. Any one who knows "Earny" knows that we have one of the best coaches in Nebraska. He it out for students daring the next two months. York college is out for the state championship this fall in foot balL For testing screw-threawed machine parts tor extreme accuracy apparatus has been designed that projects magnified pictures ot them on a acjeen, . , quarter of a million dollars added yearly to the community's income. The last few years a credit sys tem has been made possible to give Omaha v teachers a chance to get further credits and merits in this city where they are employed. Previous to the creation of this system, which was founded here in 1917, all members of the Omaha school faculties were obliged to go to Chicago and other cities of the east to complete their education as teachers. This credit school system, which prepares the teachers of Omaha, Council Bluffs and other cities, for higher standards, is to be greatly enlarged. Omaha schools alone need anually an in crease in the faculties of. about 100 teachers, which are now taken from the local institution, as far as pos sible Summer School Grows. In 1917 when the university's summer school was first opened, but 12 students attended the course. In the winter of the same year 30 students attended. In the summer of 1918, 168 students enrolled and in the year of -4918, 209 placed their 'names on the roles. In this year's summer school 300 students are enlisted. . The University of Omaha, which is located on the Redick Reserve in North Omaha, just west of Twenty fourth street and between Pratt and Evans streets', consists of two main buildings, the John Jacobs Memorial gymnasium, a building valued at $25,000, and Joslyn hall, valued at $75,000. The former Duilding serves adequately all athletic needs and is also used as an auditorium for large public gatherings. Joslyn hall is a commodious, well-appointed struc ture containing administrative of fices, class rooms, laboratories, .etc Both buildings are substantial and impressive, besides being thoroughly well adapted to the needs of the in stitution. ' Employ Fifteen Instructors. The university conducts a college of liberal arts and sciences, a teacher training department, a home- eco nomics department, a department of fine arts, a preparatory department, a school of law and extension work. ,The present faculty of the uni versity consists of 15 well trained teachers, among , whom are grad uates and post-graduates of the best institutions of America. There have been graduated from the university,, with, baccalaflreate degrees, 68 young men and women, who are now serving society in vari ous fields of usefulness as physicians, public school teachers, lawyers, min isters, college "and university pro- Columbia Missouri HRISTIAN OLLEGE and Coaaervatory of Music "An Ideal lonlor College lor Women" 69tli year.

AttV mmi fessors, journalists, engineers, etc. Specialists in chemistry, who grad uated from this institution, now do expert work for large business houses and for the United States government in military and civil positions. In less than 10 years of its exist ence, the university has spent more than ($2,00,000 in maintaining and promoting its work and providing necessary facilities. Each year its budget has increased and practically all this outlay has been expended in Omaha. The university has thus far maintained its work with only such funds as have been secured from fees and from subscriptions. In order to do away with the pres ent hand-to-mouth mode of ma'in tainance, an endowment of at least $500,000 will be secured as quickly as possible. The Dr. S. K. Spalding scholar ship of !,500, established by the widow of Dr. S. K. Spalding, con stitutes the beginning of such an endowment. To this has. been add ed the Mary Stoddard scholarship of $1,000 and two gifts of Liberty bonds, each of $50, presented by col lege classes. Trustees of the institution are sure that the fund of $500,000 to properly maintain the institution, will be raised in but a few days. The Nebraska Wesleyan University College of Liberal Arts.
