Th e crowd ed condi tion in the high school is one wi t h w hich I1incoln will have to contend until the proposed new junior hi g h schools ar e built. It is inconvenient for the students t o be crowded that two unsi g htly portables were placed on the campus , but it speaks well for the Lincoln public schools, that students from all over the United States come her e for their education. It is hoped , however, that Lincoln will be bet te r able to accommodate its students by the beginning of the next term.

ADVANCED ORCHESTRA. I

The advanced orchestra, according , to Mr. Charles Righter, Jr , is better I proportioned this year than it has ever been in previous years. Two violas and four 'cellos have been added to the string section and three flutes and is one little phase of the ma'fter which cannot be over-emphasized. c=This is the stealing of valuables fr om the school lo ckers. Of course NEW STOCK if it had been limited to "swiping" a little note-book paper, nothin g I would have been said, but when it comes to taking coats, caps and a numb er of other a rti des as has recently been done by some one in the building, the question can not be slighted. Lincoln hi gh scho ol does n ot offer a course in porch-climbing and probably most of the students would just as soon let the few here for that purpose remove themselves to other reg-inns.

"One ·Hundred Yard Dash Held Everv Dav Before f%eh Lunch Period. Purse-Privilege of Eating Luncii Fi;st.''

Why not hang signs something like that around the halls 'I Of course none of the students would need the information. but the visitors might vvish to know tlie reason for the rush at thclse times. It would be advisable for some of the dashers not to dash quite so fast unless they want to trip up on an ordinance which ;\fr. Shepherd or the student council would be justified in making.

Don't step on the freshmen" is the new slogan of the upperclassmen in Lincoln high school. For the first time in the historv of our school, the freshmen class is almost entirely c•ornposecl of pygmies. ·whether the freshmen do not get all the nourishment required or ·whether the coming generation is to be smaller in stature has not been ascertained by experts. Perhaps it would be well if the old custom of feeding the freshmen at ten o'clock in the cafoteria were reviveQ., that the lower dassmen may loom up and take the plaues of the outgoing students.

Forty-seven emblems of victory are contained in two glass cases standing in the second hall of the high school. They range all the way from brass candlesticks to a massy silver loving cup and they represent every kind of a victory, from debating contests to hard fought football championships. 'l'he ones dating farther back are as important as, and in some ways more important than those representing the more recent conquests, and yet it is the history of these older trophies which has been lost as there is no 'vritten record of them and many have no inscriptions. Miss IJUcy Green, who has 1rnJ churge of Lhern for the last twri _rf'ars, has made n ery effort to obtain the full record of each, but nothing whatsoever can be learned about some of them. It is the purpose of this artiele to urge that some record be made of each one obtained in the future. This record should be made by some student appointed for the purpose and should contain the names of those who won it, when it was won, and some incident surrounding its capture.

That Lincoln high school ranks third in the United States in the number of students enrolled per thousand population and in the number of seniors grad11ated last year is a fact that every student in the school should be proud of. The next thing to aim for is to rank first in this country. To do this, it will be necessary for every student who starts in as a freshman, to finish high school. It should be the aim of the students to bring back into school every one who is known to have dropped. With a high school education, anyone who has to make his own way in the world, has a much greater advantage than one who has not. It will not only make a name for the school, but will benefit the student il;l later life.

T1his group, known as the student council, has been chosen for this year. It began work with the first meeting, which was held Monday, October 3. Many things are expected of the council, that it may advance the work done by the council •f last year. The student body can do much to help, by complying with all the wishes and rules set forth by their representatives in the government of the ,school.

To read an exchange in the school paper from another school tends to bring the two schools into a closer union :md the knowledge gained in these exchanges should benefit both.

"I wish that I did not have to attend this color day assembly,'' grumbled an underclaRsman· not long ago. He may have said that because he thought the assembly would be uninteresting or because he had some studying to do, but probably he said it because, in his mature opinion, color day assemblies, olympics and everything of that nature are nothing but foolishness. There are many people who feel the same way arnl all of them are not underclassmen in a high ·school. By sound re1.1soning and adhering .to hard facts, they think they have arrived at the practical conelusion tat all demonstrations of class spirit are more expensive than they are worth.

T,his is one case in which "hard facts" are at fault. A school can not live to advantage with out traditions, and affairs like this color day are the thing·s which start traditions. In England this idea is thought much more of than it is in America, and a school there. unless it has had at least one hundred years of traditions and memories behind it, is not considered much of a school. Americam; need not go to England for examples, either. What story of school life that anyone ever wrote was not based on tradition of some sort?

How many people in this state would care to see a football game of any sort in which both teams were not driven on by memories of former victories 1 Our high school is comparatively new, but it is now acquiring both class and school traditions which· will never let the spirit of Lincoln hig·h school die.

Girls' athl etics m Lincdn hi'gh school f' hould be shnwu rnorr consideration than th (·y have heretofore. On t wo niµ hts a ,; er k since school started this fall. some nf the girls oi' the st!1:1ol have met on the field south of the building to prac ti ce soccf'!". Intenlafis teams hav e been organized, and the games are s chedu1c d for today and "\VednesrJoay after school. Tihe se g-irls should h<n·e th e support of th e classes in the school. as it is for the four elasse:;; t hat t hcv arc fighting. The girls are a little inclined to feel themse lves from the school, but if they had the support of th eir clctRsma t es, not only for the soccer games, but for the othmer int erclass activities in which the girls take part thr oughout the year, th e girls , rn nlc1 feel that the school had ffi(lre interest in them. '

Poets have sung oi' the clear old country scl1110ls wi t h their scarred desks and other poetic qualities so often, that hig·h school students nave tal;:en th e hin t and tried to make Lincoln hig·h poetic by carving desks with jack-knives and by spilling ink fr ee ly over the floor. It is quite unn ecessary for students to :sc ar the d es ks or make other poetical improv ements, as these "improvements" will be self-evident in a few years without anyone's conscious effort.

The other day a boy thoughtlessly np a bicycle a nd rode home to get a musical instrument that he had left th ere. Perhaps he had to haYe his horn. Perhaps he ·wou)d hav e lost his grade for: that day's band practice. Nevertheless he showed poor ethics when he picked up some other person's wheel. As it happened th e owner of the wheel had left his lunch with it and he had to wait until the bicycle was r eturned. The boy who needed his hnm might have asked for the use of a wheel or h e mi g ht even ha vc walked. The boy was a victim of his own carelessnefis fiO he should have taken the consequences whether these involved ·walkinp: or losing a grade.

Freshmen find great dinrsion in watehing the stud ents trip ov._er the mat as th ey enter the southwefit do or. The mat was placed at die door so that 011 stormy days the students might dry 1h eir feet. It is now rippecl ancl torn nnd is n sr le ss for th e pnrp n>;e it w a s intended for.

"Genius," declared a noted man, "is one part genius and nine parts hard work." There are a number of students in

school who are geniuses in the line of getting good grades. To investigate the theory just stated, several of these student "geniuses" were asked about their studies. coin school board, in speaking of the portables on the high scl10ol C'{tnpu£.

"I try to get mine in the regular study periods," said one boy, "but sometimes I have to stay up until twelve o'clock or more before I'm done.''

"Why don't you let it go once in a while and take a chance 1"

"Nothing doing, I'd get flunked for sure."

This answer corresponded to the genius theory better than any of the others, but most of the students questioned testified that they ·often studied until late at night and many, as with the boy quoted, seemed to be afraid that they might fail. One girl replied that she rarely studied, it was too much work. This girl had such good grades, however, that her mother was questioned and, according to the mother, this girl was the hardest vrnrker of them all.

Two thousand odd high school students and &bbut ninety high school teachers must find a way to get to school every morning. Most use the natural means of transportation and walk, but a good percentage find other means. The traction company estimates that from two to three hundred use the street cars, the number varying greatly with the weather. Automobiles carry many in the morning, although the automobiles are usually driven away again by fathers and mothers, so that these students have to walk home. On bright days there are more bicycle riders than there are street car riders, including at least one teacher. A buss comes in from Belmont, bringing a dozen or more regular customers. No one has arrived in an areoplane as yet, but with such a good landing field handy, this means may be used in the future.

Paper-wad shooting is not confined to freshies this year but seems to be quit"e popular with upperclassmen as well. The is quite ancient, but its antiquity does not excuse the raids of these bold little Davids. Those with military inclinations should fulfill such ambitions by training at a military academy. Many students fall behind in their class work because they have either been sending or receiving stinging wads of wood pulp. The evil is also practiced in tb.e halls, making them unsafe for students peacefully inclined.

It is a great thing to have school spirit and go to football games, but the girls sometimes get rather tired of it. There are girls' soccer, basketball, swimming and track teams, but these never go out of the city and rarely play other teams at home. There is no chance for them to win "L's" as boys do. Why not change this around for a while and have assemblies in which Miss Breitstadt explains girls basketball to the students and urges them to by season

It is a great thillg to have a high sd10ol football team.. It is a greater thing io have a football team 'vith a record of victories hr· hind it. But the g-rcatest thing- is the football team which cau aecept a defeat, and accept it gforiously. The spirit uf a high school is easily reflected by the way in 'vhich a defeat is accepted by the school <1ml the team. Good clean sports are advocated by all authorities, and it is one of the greatest of achievements when a sqnad is able to acer-pt a defeat or victory in a sportsman-like manner. Lincoln high school is the proud supporter of such a team. vVhethPr there is a victory or a defeat, or both, Lincoln high must maitaiu good sportsmanship in its attitude toward the opponent.

"You never have a right to laugh at another's mi,;takes unks.,; you are very sure that you never make any yourself." '!'his statement -was made by a high school teaeher the other day to his class It is a statement which should he taken to heart by many students in Lincoln high. It is very disagreeable for a student who is reciting to be laughed at for a mistake he has made. It disturbs him, and often makes him forg-et what he was about to say. Therefore, students should be more thoughtful of their fellow citizens, as they sometimes are unwittingly the cause of failures in recitations.

Four high school g-ames have been played in Lincoln this season, four teams from other parts of the state have arrived, and not one of these teams has been met at the station by Lincoln football fans, nor has any one of them been shown much courtesy after it did arrive. Lincoln has no reason to be proud-other cities in the state have won championships and have not felt so high and mighty as not to give the visiting teams a good reception. All home fc1ntball games are now over, but basketball is still to come. Will the visiting basketball teams feel that they have been slighted, or will they tell of I1incoln hospitality?

"A per son must have a sense of humor, an insight into human r,atun., an original type of charastera, time· liness, and above all he mus' keep going, never giving up, if he has hopes of being a cartoonist,"' Oz r'Occntiy told a representative of the Arl vocat :. "There is a distinction to be made in cartoons," he added. ..A cartoon is either serious or funny. :i. funn.Y cartoon should be an advertisement for the paper that i; A goo·i one will be 'looked forward to the readers and increase the cil'cuh-tion of the paper. To be enjoyable the subjects must be exaggerated of course but must retain enough of the true perspective so that the ::.i:accu· raf'.y of the drawing is not apparent. .\iibough a comic should ha\C the igilt amount of crudity, I wi ;Jd nol ad..-ose any one to stop tryi'!i,, to perfect his technique.

"On the other hand the p1ir1wse of a serious cartoon is to put a certain

vancement in this line, if the cartconist believes in working. "Oz." favors pen and ink rather than crayon, a medium which is now being used e:r-tensively.

Mr. Black obtains a good deal or enjoyment from meeting and gstting to know people through his cartoons. And it is a pleasure for him to "draw them up.'' He s.pends at least twenty-four hours on one ''Here in Lincoln.'' This is not steaJy, tho he often spends all Friday night drawing for the Sunday paper.

He expressed the opinion that a person can never get enougu English. All tile English he nver haa, proved tremendously valuable to him. He believes that the history. economics and geography he is taking at the university now, will help him greatly when he btkes up political cartooning.

Oz., especially admires the work of Ding, Briggs, Kirby, McManus, Ireland, vVilliams and McCutche0n, beidea across in a forceful manr·H. It cause of their originality and skill. should then be drawn more Mr. Black

MISS PEREGO DRAMATIC

Miss Ina Maude Perego, English teaicher and dramatic coach of L,incoln high school during the year 19181919, is now a reader and dramatic dtrector in Chicago. Her three prineipal readings are from "The Lady of and "Lohengrin" with musical interspersions.

Is it because of pride that the students did not bring food and for the poor people of Lin coln ? Were the students afraid of Leino· criticized by their friends for h'eing charitable?

Clocks are wonderful inventions, but many teachers in the high school would as soon get along with onlv bells. From five to ten minutes before the end of a period, depe;1aing upon the period and the age of the students, all study is automatically stopped, books are gathered up, and each member prepares himself for a record-breaking spring.

"That bell won't ring for five minutes yet. Get to work on the lesson," says the teacher sharply. Everyone immediately opens a book, but keeps IQne eye on the' clock and the other on the teacher. The minute hand makes one more jerk, the books slam shut and the class half rises from its desks. 'l'he bell doesn't ring and all s e ttle back again. The teacher has given up trying to make the students study by this time. Another minute passes. One or two are on their feet now, ostensibly to put paper in the waste basket. The hand jerks again, the bell clangs and by its quick departure the class gains-at least thirty seconds.

China is as helpless hefore Japan as the old P e r s ian a rmy was before th e Greek army when they marched into Macedonia. What are we going to do? The outcome will depend on what America does Dr. Fling impressively aside for works of art, and although the name on the door on eae h

With' class competition as high as it is this year L'incoln high school should make the school year a big meet including all kinds of events, girls' and boys' basketball, swimming, debate and every other event that would give a reason for competition. Points could be giv en for each event as in a track meet and at the end of the vear the class with the most honors could be given a cup or some reward that would stay in the school to be fought for the next year.

A new custom has been started in Lincoln hi gh school something that in the futur e will perhaps become traditional , 'in the mother and daughter ni g ht. The gathering is to serve a threefold purpose: first, to acquaint the mothers with school life· second to give them the opportunity of seeing wh a t is done in 'the various departments of girls' work; third , to promote a spirit of friendship between the faculty, the mothers, and the girls

In a recent article from London, we find mention of some unusual professions springing up. They in clude the work of the man who "guarantees an afternoon of interesting conversation for so much and another who writes. breezy lett ers to your friends for so much per page.'' If these professions grow, in a few years "I.Ve might be hiring men to furnish conversation or to write our letters. Some of us also will be following these professions ourselves and be earning money by our ability to wrlte letters. Many of u s think there is no advantage in being abl e to writ e good letters, but :i.f these men are successful, l etters may be our source of living.

The Advocate bulletin board has been repaired with th e kind service of Mr Sorenson, the custodian, and an attempt has been made to fill the board with interesting news and pictures. Thus it fills a place distinct from ' that of the other various boards, which are being used for announcements of high school affairs and results <>f elections or contests. Tihis gre atly improves the appearance of that part of the building and makes possible a profitable diversion during extra moments before school or between classes.

Three hundred and eighty-two basketball tickets for the seaso·n were sold by the home room rep. resentatives during the weel< that they were on sale. More than one thousand tickets were issued and it is the belief of J. V. Hayes, business manager of Lincoln high school athletics, that at least eight hundred should be sold and that last year's record should be broken also. One dollar is the price charged for each season ticket, which admits the bearer to six cage battles. Because so few tickets were sold, and because Mr. Hayes believes that not a!I who wanted tickets got them, they will orobably be put on sale again this week. The tickets were also sold at McKin ley junior high school on Fl'iday. December 16. The junior high school students a1 e the only ones outside of the hign school that are allowed to buy the tickets.

L Mead at a recent H1 Y dinner. -Co ach Mead stated that he had received most comment:" from the members of the Topeka, Kans., team which entertamed here two years ago. He also said that he had received a letter from a football team which played here this season. The letter criticised l.Jincoln because nothinO' was done to entertain the team. This is an excellent opportunity 0 for some good work. The students should be able to take care of this situation.

The Advocate received commendation when "'raded hv a committee from the central interscholastic press association, it was next to best, not with the best. Surely the students are w1llmg to do their part since the work of the .Advocate represent s the whole school. The Advocate staff is hindered by a lack of funds. Because of this, illustrations are seldom found the paper. If every student in the high school will subscribe for the Advocate next semester perhaps it can gain its place among th e leading pap ers.

Although the new year is three days old, something is to be said about resolutions. It is hoped hy the faculty that all L. H. S. students solemnly resolved to study hard during the new year and never come to class without their l essons. On the other hand it is hoped by the students that the faculty firmly resolved to ha;e frequent assemblies and other forms of diversion from studies durirw the new yeiir. · '"'

During vacation, much work vvas done around the high school to improve the appearance of the building. Marred desks were refinrnhed. Are the students going to appreciate the effort set forth. a:i;id treat these desks as they should be treated? Or, are they, in of t.he fact that the desks are not their 0\\'11 persmial property, gomg to scrafoh them or carve them i1n t , t h0i1· owl! ,;:itisfre tio1:i '? It sh')11Jd. be i·ernemhr red that tL.cre are four das,.;es a ri11:· i use these desks and that shoul d be kept in good i imd i- · t1011 by s tud ents. ·

Some students insist upon usin g the drinking fountafos a s a deposit for bread crumbs. T•he fountains were never intended to be used as waste-baskets, and r ec eptacles have been provided for papers and scraps. A few students without any regard for the ri 2hts of others, however, do put waste into the fountains and these persons should put a stop to the practice.

. A new bulletin board has been placed in front of the office. It is hoped that the announcements \Vhich are posted on it will not be three deep. The bulletin board is larg'er than the old one, and if the old posters ar e removed when th ey should be there will alwavs b e room for the new ones. ·

So many people bluff their way through the world th at it is hard to tell which are not bluffers without a close · observation. There a_r e som_e such students in Lincoln high school. When they are entirel_y knowledge on a given subject, they bluff along·, firml:f behevmg that the teachers and students with whom they associate do not know that they are m wnorance of the fa cts concerning the subject. These students do work in bluffin"' than they would do in studyin_g upon the subjects they are trying to evade. It would be well if any s uch students would resolve that for coming year, they would do no more bluffing. l£ such resolutions were k ept, the habit or art of bluffing would be lost bv th e end of the year, and the much better habit of studying wouid be substituted.

For the time this semester, the regular staff will turn over publicat10n of the Advocate to English VIII students. The staff is glad to do this, as it gives the "cubs" a chance to see what th_e production of a newspaper means. The next issue of the paper w:I_l be mad_e by the fifth newswriting class, under the superv1s10n of Miss Sarah T. Mmr. The following issue will be under the direction of Miss J. Colburn, and the staff will be chosen fr?m the _first English VIII class. The regular staff takes this occas10n to wish the special staffs all success.

\Vhv is it that towns much smaller than Lincoln can turn out a high team that often beats us? That is a question aske:l quite :frequently by outsiders, as well as by students. The answer is that in a small town every boy, if he is not a cripple, goes_ out_ for athletics. It is very different in this school. If every boy m tlns school went out for sports, Lincoln could turn out a team that would never be defeated. In some schools and colleges it is compulsory for every boy to go out for athletics, unless he has a doctor's permit. not try that plan in our school?

Perhaps one of the most unwelcome and yet unavoidable periods in the life of a student is that of examination week. The passing· of three more weeks will find everyone pacing the halls with a woebegone expression upon his face, trying to h_is wornout mind with knowledge supposed to have been acqmred rn the course of eighteen weeks. When it is all over with. there will be those proud of themselves that they should be so successful,_ again there will be those anxious for the new semester to begm m order to make up for time lost.

\Vhy have we broken the custom 1 Why are we graduating at the middle of the semester the seniors who have all the credits necessary? Only because so many of Lincoln's younger generation are cravina for an education that those who can be graduated are almost as as the whole senior class in 1917. There is the whole reason in nutshell for breaking the custom.

Although debating is considered by many Lincoln high school students a <lrv way in >vhich to pass one's time, the success of the debate in proved that the school can enjoy a debate. For this reason the battle between the sophomores and the seniors for class supremacy in debating will be carried in assembly again this year. 'rhe senior team is confident that the title will be theirs, while the sophomores assure them that they will have to go some. From all appearances there is going to be a very interesting and hanl fought debate in assembly a week from today.

Of the six hundred girls lockers on first , second and third floors, how many are locked 1 About one out of ten lockers has a lock on it. Students wonder why things are being stolen all the time. The students and also some members of the faculty think that there ought to be guards to watch the locker rooms, but if every student would lock his or her locker, such a movement would not be necessary.

Would enough students register for shop work of some kind if shops were built, was the question before the faculty some time ago. To solve this question the students were given lists of the shops that could be put in and asked to check the work they woul d take. A majority signed these lists, showing shopwork wol,lld be r eadily acc epted by the students Now there is a probability that by next September there will be shops of different kinds located south of the main building The boys especially will be eager to get into their shop-work classes because it will be a rest to them after several hours of concentrated study and recitation There are not very many boys who do n ot like to d1g into a job and get their hands dirty and that is why they will like it. It is a certainty that other kinds of shop work would not be unpopular ,with the girls.

Underweight children are now being given special lunches from 9 :55 to 10 :02, in the cafeteria.

Dr. William R. P.

The class of '23 is to be complimented upon its spirit toward the seniors graduating at the end of this semester. The party has been planned at the su ggestion of the juniors and not at the request of the seniors The j uniors decided that they could raise enough money t o cover the expenses of t he party, and that it was unfair fo r the mid-year g raduating class to be deprived of a junior-s enior •Ill this way the class of ' 23 will be the firs t to assume the responsi bility of giving two junior-senior parties.

THE BORROWING HABIT.

Many students of Lincoln high are seen every day borrowing a pencil from their teachers, or some paper, or an eraser from a fellow student. The borrowing in itself is not bad, because the majority of students pay back what they borrow. It is the habit thaf is being formed which is harmful. The students in overcoming this .habit will gain by learning to think ahead of time, instead of being careless.

THE LIBRARY AND THE LAW.

Some students have torn pages from magazines and books in the high school library. An act like this is against the law-not only the school law, but also a state law Tihis law states that a fine not exceeding one hundred dollars or a term in jail nnt uud rr te11 nor exceeding thirty days may be imposed. Does it take a heavy fine or som e severe punishment to make the students realize the importance of the The boys and girls do not know perhaps that when they destroy these books they are preventing hundreds of citizens from using the material. Something should be done to stop the destruction of books and to give every student a fair chance.

CLUBS AND THEm CONSTITUTIONS.

1 'Scraps of paper" are becoming quite common at Lincoln high in the form of club constitutions. When a high school club starts business, it solemnly draws up a constitution, has it approved by the student affairs committee, and has it read before the assembled mem:bers of the club. Then, this constitution is given into the custody of the secretary and is retired from active service. Of course it is brought out on state occasions, and is followed in a fairly exact way, but the little niceties are overlooked, thus breaking down the individuality of the organization. For instance, in one of the prominent activities of the school, it was discovered not long ago that a halfforgotten provision of the constitution would have ruled that at least half the members were not members at all, and that this condition dated some time back. Another provision of the same document gave the treasurer a power which, had it been used the semester before, would have ousted a dozen or so members. In at least two other societies the same conditions prevail in a varying degree.

SENIORS AND SUPERVISED STUDY.

Should seniors have study periods? This question has been the cause of considerable discussion in I1incoln high school. It seems that the seniors feel less inclined than underclassmen toward disposing of their study periods as they should. various teachers have expressed their opinions upon the subject, but as yet no definite progress has been made toward the settling of the question. Before the time of study periods it was necessary for the majority of students to prepare their assignments outside of school without the help of the instructor. Tihis was a great disadvantage and was one of the main incentives which led toward putting study periods in this institution. If such a thing should happen as the dscontinuance of senior study periods, it would interfere greatly with the arrangement of the classes, as there are sometimes underclassmen taking the same subjects as seniors.

THE NEED OF A CLUB ROOM.

When Lincoln high school was built, room 426 was planned for club meetings, for small parties, for musicals, and for other affairs of that kind. A small stage was erected on the north side and a piano was part of the equipment. It was necessary to remove the stage after a short time in order to make room for the scenery of the auditorium stage. Otherwise the room remained the same until last summer when it was divided into two class rooms. 1'he reason for this was, of course, overcrowd 0ed conditions.

The division of this room left the organizations without a meeting place, since the- ordinary class rooms are too small for that purpose. Room 330 is being used by many of the clubs, but the members agree that chairs are much nicer than the desks, and dancing is almost impossible. Room 226 is too large for the average club, as is the auditorium. The teachers' rest room has been utilized for evening meetings, but this not only involves the work of carrying chairs in and out, but makes the hour late before the committee has rearranged the furniture. Under the present crowded conditions it is scarcely possible to remedy this lack of a suitable club room. However, as soon as the junior high schools take care of the freshman classes, if 426 were restored or some other room equipped for club meetings, both sponsors and members would be spared trouble and inconvenience, as well as manual labor. In short, a general time-saving would be e:ffected for the entire club.

Advocate Subscriptions.

Every person interested in high school affairs should subscribe for the Advocate. This paper is recognized as one of the best high school journals in the middle-west, as is evidenced by the rank given it in a contest in which it was recently entered. The Advocate has ambitions which can_ be accomplished with the support of the student body.

The ·other day a letter was received by :Niiss Olivia Pound from W. P. McGuire, managing editor of the American Boy, asking for several copies of the Advocate. The letter ran thus:

''Wh.at I have heard of your publication, The Advocate, interests me, and I should be. glad to see one or two sample copies. I wonder if I may ask you to send me these.''

Thus is shown what outside persons think of T1he Advocate. This should stir the patriotism of the students as much as the winning of a great football game or a debate. They should lend The Advocate as much support as possible, so that it can realize its ambitions for further development.

Politics· in the School.

The last year has seen a great deal of activity on the part of politicians. This activity, however, has been evident only during the last year. The motives of the active students were entirely honorable, they felt that they were working for the best interests of the school. Tihe slate was made out, not through motives of friendship, but on the basis of merit alone. However practical this plan may be it is not right in principle for two or three students to determine the policies of the whole school. This is an oligarchy and should not have its existence in a democratic country. This is especially true of a school where high ideals of self-government are taught. The reason that a small group of students can so dominate the rest of the school is that most persons do not take enough interest in their own government.

There is no reason to believe that the students running the government will always have the highest of motives. What is to prevent another group of less honest politicians from getting control of the student council and forever disgracing student government? It is possible, if not probable, that rival political rings will be formed and a continual political struggle will be going on in the school.

On the other hand the argument is advanced that the students, and especially the younger students, are not sufficiently acquainted with the capabilities of the nominees to vote intelligently. This is perhaps true, but the remedy lies not in a "benevolent monarchy" which may not always be so benevolent, but in education for the members of the school. A plan was tried out for one or two semesters of having the candidates introduced in assembly. Speeches were made telling the organizations that the nominees belonged to and also what reforms or policies each advocated. This plan having been impracticable this semester, The Advocate has endeavored to inform the students· of the politics of various candidates.

If student government is to be a success it should be free from "machine" politics. Where such a small committee nominates the prospective members, there is a risk of allowing the committee to be influenced. A method of obtaining better government lies not in a direct primary, not in Senator Penrose methods,

ACTION FROM THE STUDENT COUNCIL.

If student government is to be successful, th e members of the governing body should be active. Neither students nor faculty will long burden themselves with a pflssive organization. The student council has accomplished a great deal in the past. It has proved itself worthy of student support. N everthelcss, the council has n o t been active in the semester just past To be sur e it managed the color day program, but what organization in the school could not have done just a s well '? Early in the semester the council decided to place signs in the restricted areas in the halls. Tihis was a good idea and received the full endorsement of the Advocate at the time But wh ere are thos e The casual student wandering in the second floor corridors duriRg the first lunch period is not stopped by any imposing sig n.

Not that student government sl1ould be condemned for its weakness. However, the maximum service was not obtained from the student council last semester. It has inaugurated a much needed reform in the matinee parties yet there is more to be done.

The Advocate has several reasons for not printing an exchangr column. In the first place, clippings and exchanges are not con"live" news. Published comments on other papers do not interest a reader unless he has seen those papers. News :s any accurate fact which will interest a large number of readers, therefore exchanges are not news and should not be given space in a newspaper. On the other hand , comments about the Advocate let the students know what others think of it. Other paper13 might say that it is a violation of professional ethics not to publish criticisms about exchanges which had commented upon the Advocate. However, printing compliments about a paper does little good. Tihere is a great need for an organization of school papers to serve the purpose an exchange column should.

SUBSCRIBE AT ONCE.

The Advocate is the chief means by which a student new to Lincoln high school may become acquainted with its customs and various school activities. The regular staff reporters and students in the newswriting classes are continually seeking news items of interest to the readers. Conducted in a manner similar to that of a modern newspaper, the Advocate is able to present to its readers many points of interest, helpful editorials, and interesting accounts of athletic events. In order to gain full benefit from the Advocate, subscribe during the campaign next week.

ADVICE FOR FRESHMEN.

Students who are new to the high school would do well to secure the advice of their home room teachers upon what courses they will take in the future. If is a wise plan to map out a career ahead of time, not an absolutely fixed program perhaps, but at least a gene,ral policy. Those who expect to prepare for the university should be sure that they will be able to tget in their majors and minors. Those preparing for a business career should not leave any essential subject out of their calculations. An education is one of the tools with which a man builds up a business or an industry The careful workman will see that there are no flaws in his tools.

RED AND BLACK DIRECTORY.

The R.ed and Black directory is one of the best means for new students to become acquainted with I1inco]n higll customs. Tihis booklet devotes one section to the clubs of the school. Undoubtedly, joining a club is an advantageous method of obtaining friends and making progress in school. Th e directory also gives the student an opportunity to keep athletic records. It gives the constitution of the student council, the methods of election of home room representatives and ·student council members. This knowledge is extremely useful to the beginner. Altogether the purchase of a Red and Black directory is one of the best investments of its kind a student can make.

CROWDING IN LOCXER ROOMS. Freshmen coming into the school for the first time might be excused for violating some of the unwritten laws of the school. This is not true of the uuperclassmen, however. There is always a jam in the locker rooms just before school and between classes. Much of this is caused by students waiting for their locker mates or friends fa the aisles. The students might just as well catch their friends as they enter the room and save all the jamming and shoving that has been prevalent heretofore.

Aiding the Council.

The number of committees posted on the bulletin board gives evidence that the student council this semester is undertaking a vig·orous program.

The matinee parties mittees that will have sponsoring of them. will be care of by a group of comeharge of the business management and

A committee of one has been appointed to investigate concerning the need of organizing a student employment bureau. This investigation should be especially productive of good results. It should assist the office in se.curing positions for those students who wish regular employment and also in helping those who want to earn money doing odd jobs.

Another committee has been appointed to prepare a questionnaire to be sent to the home room groups inviting students to contribute to the council any ideas they may have as to new projects. In this way the students will have a chance to assist materially in the advancement of the school and this will probably bring about a closer co-operation between students and council, the need of which has long been felt.

This talk of co-operation really means more than many students think. There is a box in the office marked ''Student Council'' which has been waiting ever since last fall for some one to use. It was put there expressly for the purpose of giving the citizens of this school a chance to contribute ideas to the council. If there are any complaints to be made, they should be made to the council. So far this box has not been used, or if it has, not enough to justify its being put there. Perhaps it is because not enough people know that it is there, or perhaps there is a lack of responsibility on the part of most students.

It is well known ·that there is a class of persons who take no responsibility in any matter and who are not willing to any effort to better things. T•hey seem not to be aware that if the proper' thing is not done by the council very existence is threatened. .Serious-minded students know this, are awake to the problems before them, and are doing their best to solve them. However, a group of persons can only Everyon e .i:nust h elp. Good conduct at the matmee parties will give the par11es a new lease on life , good condu ct in the halls and obedi enc e to th e rules of the home room r epresentative guards will r eli e ve th ese persom of their irksom e duties, suggestions made direct to the council by th e home room teachers and the students will help the council considerably in its endeavor to improve conditions.

Improving Educational Standards.

In the editorial columns of the Lincoln 'Star recently there was an article on "Higher Educational Standards." More than half a million students, or to be exact, 675,125, were in 613 colleges and universities in the last college year, besides the 15,036 students reported from purely technical schools.

The article mentioned the number of students enrolled in America's largest universities and colleges. All these institutions have about twice as many students now as they had ten years ago. Many have definitely placed a limit on the number that may enter and others have made entrance requirements more rigid for "the purpose of limiting the number of students. The larger universities h:ave to weed out sometimes half of the freshman classes and the smaller colleges have to struggle to obtain money for teac•hers and class rooms for the many students that come to them.

"Is education going gradually to become a privilege of the few?" The Des Moines Register asked this question and then inquired further, "If that is putting it too strong, are we to have gradually a class in America whose sons and daughters are not expected to seek an education?"

The Register does not strike directly at the of the sitirntion but rather begs the question. Are not these stricter requirements going to eliminate a class of sons and daughters who ar e filling up the universities and colleges and yet not conscientiously seeking the full benefits of the institution they attend?

In time to come, the larger schools will not be able to hold the great number of students enrolled. When this becomes true will not those desirous of an education enroll in the smaller institutions ? ll'hose who seek learning will probably do this, but young men and women who look up a college degree merely as a social asset will not attend the lesser institutions. The result will be to producP graduates of higher mental calibre as well as schools of higher educational standards. 1 a.

Debate in High School.

The value of tlie intensive training that is given to school debaters was well demonstrated in the result of the university debate tryouts. A former student of this sch9ol, now a freshman in the university and exceedingly active in debate while in high school was chosen a member of the university debate team. Professor' M. M. Fogg, in charge of debate at the university, states that for a freshman to make the first debate team is a rare occurrence, so rare in fact that it has happened only once before in twenty years. In a recent assembly, he stated that Lincoln high school had been an innovator in modern high school debate.' Lincoln high has never fallen behind in the quality of debate material turned out. In fact, it has fallen behind in only one thing and that is the support given to the debate team. Many empty seats greet the debaters and they must address only a few friends. Support from the school at large should be greater. ·

Freshman Political Activity.

There has always been considerable agitation among the juniors and seniors for the political instruction of freshmen. That this is not necessary in order that the freshmen may gain their ends by the established means has been proved by two members of the class 'Of '25. Not satisfied with having the nominations take place in the home rooms, they drew up a petition asking for a regular meeting of the members of their class. Having gained enough signers to make the effective, they presented it' to their sponsors and gained their point.

HALF CENTURY SHOWS GREAT CHANGE HERE II

Present High School Building Cost Thirteen Times as Much ai; Firh

FIFTY YEARS AGO

"The schoo:I board of Lincoln was asking for suggestions from the of the city. They had under consideration the advisability of erecting a new high school building. A sum of $45,000 would be sufficient, the board estimated, to build a handsome, substantial, tnreestory brick building which would accommodate 450 pupils."

The foregoing article appea.;ed recently in the State Journal. During the past fifty years there has been a great change in the school

The first high school, the one built a half century ago, is · now known as the Center McKinley bunldiug. It was erected in 1872 at a cost of $46.· 135. The cost of the present build· ing, $609,906, is thirteen times that of the first one. Fifty ago there were 200 public school pupils in Lincoln Now there are twelve time s that many in the high school alone. The first building was erected to accommodate 450 pupils and since there were only 201> pupils in all Lin· coln, the school board was severely criticised for thei size of the build· ing. (If only that could be said of Lincoln high school now!) '!'hough that building may have been too large then, all the pupils that it would ac· commodate could be placed in the

Mr. H. P. Shepherd

Answering George Ade.

Every once in a while some reformer makes the startling discovery that the present generation is a set of ei g hteen-year-old rogues and ninete en-year-old vamps. The magic name of George Ade, noted for his fabl es in slang, is sig ned to an article of this import in the March issue of the American. He accuses the younger generation of being a perfidious lot of unprincipl ed cads and of having not one of the virtues that became the youth of thirty years ago.

"This is a broadside d enunciation of the child wonders who cong est every M a in Street " says Mr. Ad e "The tender a ge has toughened up until you can ' t put a dent in it As a novel international sporting proposition why not have a bench show and exhibit the swankiest pr oducts of the two E'nglish-speaking nations 1

The odds will be three t o on e that our beloved country will make a clean sweep of blue ribbons It is not contended that th e new brood has invented any characteristics. They hav e taken the old ones and developed them, n o t only to the nth degree, but away b eyond that ·when Junior drives the car, does he observe the speed limit su gg est ed by his parents or just g o as he plea:!les

:\'Ir. Ade, having no children of his own, is probably not so well acquainted with the younger generation as he might be. Furthermore he is a "humorist" and humorists often see the world through a twisted glass and its vic es are often mag nified by the microscope of their pens. Mr. Ade shows that h e is growing old by the fact that he begins to tell of the simpl e ple asur es indulged in by the companions of his early days. He appar ently forg ets that the country has never seen such athletic d evelopment as at the present time. The athletes of today compare fav orably with those of ancient Greece and Rome.

Never before has there been such mechanical development and r.Mr• Ade gives this as a reason for the apparent blase attitude of the • American youth. He that they are so constantly confronted with the wonders of the modern world that nothing has any surprise left in it for them. He should remember, on the other hand, that never before has the world been. so completely interested in making itself a better place to live upon as now. Those who are not interest ed in this eon s titn te n 111 y n "m;i ll minor it y. fot0r es t h 1·rrds enthusi asm, a nd the d ec; i :-. - forme (l to d o Hornethu ig b e tter than anyone else has done.

J\fr. Ade c harg·es that the simple' pleasur1's a re not ca red fo r as th ev rniP<l to l Je ,'l h at is nn t. true, fo r an y on e wh o has e ver live rl in asmall town realizes that swimming , ball-playing, and other such sports are just as popular as ever among the younger boys.

· After all is taken into consideration, it is found that Mr Ade is merely reiterating that which, in times past, have ?efore. .Collier's Weekly sums up the whole thmg m an editonal entitled "The Road to the }fillenium," which reads:

' 'Zealous folks have told us ab out the wickedness of many things. Whiskey , women's dress, the younger g eneration, theatres , moving pictures, jazz-it's been a thorough job But it has. lasted a trifle over long, this business of making happier by making the world better. What would happen if we turned about and went with equal fervor about the job of making the world happier by making ourselves better?"

The Dilettante.

The familiarity of speech that some persons have with things known to be authoritative, gives one the idea that they are acquainted with the best things in lit erature, science, or art. upon close examination this person is found to know but one thmg, and as for the rest of the things that make up the world he knows but little. Having become appre ciative of one subj e ct, having learned its ins and outs to the last degree , they seem to t?mk they are educated, while many times they display the grossest ignoran_ce Qf the other thinas of life. T ihose artistic souls who moon over pictures who cock well-trained ear every time a note of music is playe'd or sun g , or who fix th eir gimlet eye upon pertaini:i;ig to thin"'S scientific usually have not the r e motest idea of the difference °between chalk and cheese. That is not saying that it is not all right to moon over pictures listen to musi'C or experiment :vith test tubes and microscopes, but it is saying that to know these thmgs and nothing else is the gro s sest example of charlatanism. A g eneral knowled g e of the world at large must accompany specialized training of the doctor, lawyer merchant chief, or his knowledge, no matter how great, is of small account. Too much specialization creates narrow-mindedness and contempt for everyone else's work.

In the outer omce tnere are two large tiers of "cubby-holes". These were purchased last semester to he!') in the new system of registration Each of -the teachers has fiv .:: littl e boxes in which there are ca1 ds fc>r the pupils in each of their classe s There is a different colored card for each period.' Thus there is a file of the roll for each class i;o that any information concerning these may be quickly and easily secured.

A number of Lincoln high boys served as volunteer fire fighters during the third lunoo. period last Monday, February 20, when the dry grass on the vacant field north e;f the building caught fire originating presumably llrom the 11parkis of some passing train. With the aid of sticks the boys beat at the rapidly increasing and spreading flames until tlle pangs of hunger forced them to drop their sticks and scurry toward the Hi Y building. Their unfinis.hed task was resumed by two men who ap· peared upon the scene, and with the help of chemical fire extinguisher, shovels, and rakes soon put out all traces of the fire except the strip of charrd weeds.

Speculation is rife as to the teams to be included in class A. Last year Norfolk, Grand Island, Lincoln, Creighton Prep, Omaha Commerce, South Omaha, Auburn, Kimball, Superior, Hastings, Omaha Central, Bay>ard, Geneva, Beatrice and University Place were included in the major group. Norfolk, Auburn, Superior, Bayard and Kimball are not certain of a place in the class A group although they were included last year. Norfolk lost a number of men by ineligibility and sickness. The other teams were either over-rated last year or have had some hard luck in carding heavy teams.

Opportunity for Initiative. Millard Gump Fred Chase

Tw enty-four hundred twenty students crowded into a building meant for fifteen hundred has broug·ht up an endless succession of difficulties. Not the least of these in the minds of students is the problem of revising· the carnival. Th e mere mass of persons involves danger to health, especially now at the crest of the influenza wave; unusual difficulty in making up lessons lost in preparing for au elaborate undertaking; and damage to a building already stretched to the cracking point. 'rhe old type of carnival with its parade, refreshment booths, brass band, and reconstruction of class rooms into theatres must go in the interests of health, the student's time , and taxpayer's mo11ey The action of the faculty taken last Thursday makes clear that the memb ers of that body realize that the school has outgrown the carnival. Tihe carnival last year was given with the feeling that it would be the last. What wiU take its place ? Student initiative and ready faculty co-operation may result in finding a logical successor to the carnival.

Recognition of Art Department.

High school students are proud of the fact that the art department has been requested to send to South Am eri ca a collection of the work done in this d epartment. The request came from the American Crayon company. The work sent will be representative of all the classes of work don e Monograms, nature units, flowe r charts , book ends, box designs and corner designs for portfolios will be included. 'l'he request is indeed a compliment to those who have worked to improve the output of the art department.

The practical us e put to art training has made this branch of study indispensable in the curriculum of the school. However, the art departments of this and other schools are not only giving the students a chance for early specialization, but also enabling those not :fitted for such speciaiization to walk appreciatively in the temples of fine art.

Language as a Character Indicator.

Language, even more than manner or dress, indicates the real character of a p erson. This does not mean that it distinguishes him among others as being of the "smart set" or, going to the other extre1w uu1: i ;,. " : .;. ;;, c ;, docs mear1 that every thoug·ht anil characteristic is habitually revealed to his acquaintances, whereupon they ar e eitlwr f a \''11 ah1y en· unfavor ably impressed, as the case may be. Oft rn times p eople have receiv ed >vouderful opportunities just through the r ecommendations of some casual acquaintance who was favorably impressed

Taxing Excess Excuses.

The possibilities of taxing excess excuses are wonderful. 'f'he subject should receive attention. The high school has the professional excuse-maker who has almost made an art of it. An excuse is always on his lips. Any time, any place, th e excuse is not found wanting. Of course, everyone has at times entirely legitimate reasons for faults But even at that it is easy to use an excuse. A plausible excuse saves so much in the way of explanation!

So why not tax the habitual excuse user? 'The school would have a continual flow of funds from that source. A record should be kept of each pupil's excuses and when the maximum was reached the excuse tax c-ould be set in motion. When the days were pleasant and school a little tedious no doubt the excuse-tax collector ";ould be a busy person. It might be of advantage to faculty and students alike to have the tax a possibility, though it might be hard to determine between the excuse with no basis and the really excusable excuse. But an excuse judge 9ould care for that.

Lunch apers in Corridors.

From the appearance of the lower halls during the second and third lunch periods it would seem that nothing had ever been done against the littering up of the building with lunch papers, candy wrappers, and other papers. However, there have been several notices and reminders from time to time in the morning bulletins in regard to this untidiness. Close observation, however, reveals that the upperclassmen are not the guilty ones. The innocent freshman , seeing a stray paper in the hall, considres this a proper place to dispose of his waste paper. If those who do not put their waste paper in the right place have not enough civic pride to do so, they should know that their actions are not approved by others, and they may discontinue their untidy practice.

The Question.

.Sometimes, in time of study, 'Neath the glowing yellow light, W4en the eyes begin to weary And the darkness creeps to night, I close my books beside me To forget; and then to seeThat. ever present vision Of a goal that beckons me.

All within the world about me, T1hose who slipped, and those who fell; Those who went a little hl.gher, Those who merely have done well. And I wonder, if they, like me, Dreamed the dreams that so inspire Of a future yet to blossom In a life ,a little higher.

Are they merely dreams of girlhood, Will they some day fade to die 1 Will realities maturing Cloud the dream-goal, by and by? "Life is real, life is earnest," Tho' they are the dreams of youth May their presence ever guide me • To unfold them as the truth ! --Nellie McDonald.

ACTIVE STUDENTS NEED NOT HAVE LOW GRADES

Average Grade; of Those Belonging to Organizations is 80

Participation in school activities does not necessarily cause low grades, according to a report made J.ast Tuesday by a scholarsl!iP committee of the faculty. The total number of students belonging to the organizations studied was 47.'. 01 these, 336 belonged to more than one club. Only five students were found who are members of four organiza, tions and only four who had five av tivities.

A chart was presented showirrg the scholarship record of these nine students. The highest avera.ge made by one of them was and the 10west average in the group was 78. The five who were in four organizations registered for between 20 and Z.) hours and made from.19 to 24}. There was one failure of five hours, but no. conditions were received in this group. The four students who participated in five activities registered for between 20 and 25 hours and received credit for between 20 and There was one exception, a student wlw was registered for 22 hours, made and was conditioned in 10. The highest grade in a single subject in this group was 95 and the lowest 75., The average grade of student.s taking part in activities was near !::O and a few failed. The system of re.quiring tryouts for membership is beiievetl to account for this good show:ng of the organizations in scholarship. In the school as a whole, outside of and including these organizations, forty girls and seventy-one boys failed in three subjects each.

Value of an Education.

Students who do not apply themselves to their studies do not realize the advantage placed before them until it is tdo late. A century ago an education was not so necessary as it is now. Industry was not such a complicated affair; people were satistied with ah inferior output; there were not so many things to do ; and education was not counted as an essential in beginning a career. Then a person was supposed to learn what was necessary to his success by exp€rience. Franklin once said, very truthfully, "Experience keeps a dear school, but fools will learn in no other." Half a century ago a man who had no education could offer an excuse but today a man could not easily defend himself for lack -0f He is indeed foolish who prefers to learn by his own experience rather than by that 9f countless ages of the world's history.

Activities and Scholarship.

The interview appearing in this issue regarding the scholarship of persons having activities disproves that organizations take so much of the students' time that enough cannot be spent on studies. Of the five people having four clubs, the highest grade was 92 per cent and the lowest 78 per cent. Probably very few four persons selected at random from the hundreds who belong to no organizations would show a better average.

Ability to hold membership in such organizations as this school promotes indicates considerable ability to do a good many other things also. Those persons, it has been found out, who are active in organizations are exceedingly active in every other branch of school work.

Activities are just as much a part of school life as are studies. They help to keep a person sane, level-headed and broad-minded. Tihey help him to understand his chosen work and prepare him for the specialization that comes in later school life. Indeed, they often help him to determine what the specialization is to be. Furthermore, if. he is at all self-analytic these experiences which he goes through help him to know himself. · While many under-rate the value of their studies, many more under-rate the value of organization here in the high school. There is a club for every taste or desire and if there is not, it is easy enough to start one. There are not the old literary societies which amounted to and which finally degenerated into dancing clubs. There is a chance for all to belong to some organization and they avail themselves of the opportunity. There are not many schooIs wlnch offer the inducements that Lincoln high does in this respect.

Nebraska: A Producer of Good Things.

Too often it is thought that the average Nebraskan is worthy of nothing in the \Vay of lit er ature, art, or science, and that he is merely a humble producer of the nation's grain supply, a path of life which is regarded by some as very low, but which in reality i,s not. T•here are persons who think their own states are quite the only ones on the map, take no notice of the things going on within the borders of new er localities and consequently know little or nbthing about the thing which they so loudly berate, the statement that cultural g rowth has ceased. This is the lone wail of that coyote of human beings, the person who has nothing to do but holler. Away· back in the nineteenth century, which, according to the reformers, was the age of paradise, the cry went up that the American stage was gone to the last stages of that ailment known as the ''dogs''. Yet men like Booth and Joe J son then held the stage and gave characterizations that are now historical.

It is often wondered why such words are permitted to be spoken. Within h a lf a minute there could be run off on the fingers quite a long list of persons that have contributed things of lasting fame to the world's literary library. John G. Neihardt should perhaps be mentioned among the first in this connection. ''The Song of Three Friends'' and the ''Song of Hug h Glass'' are parts of a work that one day will be considered of the highest rank. And more, they are written of and about the deeds of early explorers of the country then called the ''great American desert''. They are red-blooded, vigorous tales told in simple, direct English so that they are easy enough for anyone to read Heroes rivalling Achilles or Hector or Agammemoon or Hercules are Jed Smith, Richard Brown, Peter Sarpy, the fiery-tempered Pierre de Choteau, or Manuel Lisa, those men of the early Missouri trails whose lives are great enough to be recorded in a great epic. John Neihardt has written of these and made the history of the Missouri river region one of the most interesting records. The Missouri, according to Neihardt, is the greatest rivPr nu tllf• 1'! luli e nq rn1 ,,,1 to it the Rhine is a fantastic fairv tale. the Amazon a lazv alligator , the l\Ii ssissipp i a ·worn-out lt is n ot rPalizP;t that the greatest of all things ar e oft en p art of every-day life.

Oth0r authors there are, and many, who have contributed to the world's happiness by giving good books. Nebraska not only contributes to the literary welfare of the world, but gives also musician s and composers who, although not so notable, will some day be recognized among the great.

This is as great a state as there is in the union. Why not enjoy its benefits now instead of waiting until the future and then bewailin g the good things that used to be, as some have already taken to doing 1

Wireless Club in High School.

The formation of a wireless club in this school would be a good thing. Although there are at present clubs of nearly every description, need is felt for one which would help the boys who mak e wireless their hobby. Interest in this has been shown by the number of boys wishing to take part in the formation of such a club.

As everyone should have a hobby so should everyone have some way to develop this hobby along different lines. The wireless ''bugs'' have more of a chance than most persons for their favorite amusement is something more than that. In fact, it is instruction, disguised in such a form as to deceive all those who w-0uld take it as such and try to escape. T1he ability to receiv e the ''dots'' and ''dashes'' over the wire and to make them m ean something after being received is an accomplishment. It is very nearly as good mind training and requires just as quick thinking as geometry or Caesar.

The fact that one of the teachers of this school has become interested enough to s(1t up an outfit of his own alone proves its worth. Furthermore, it is not a subject in which just a few are interested, but rather one in which the entire world at the present time is unusually interested. hen it becomes possible to transmit the performance of the Metropolitan opera company in New York to Lincoln, then an achievement will have been made. Indeed, at the present time a concert can be given via the wireless and it looks as if, with the inventions of the present century, with the aid of the movie and the radiophone it will become possible to both hear and see any sort of a performance at any distance.

The reformers inay rant all they please about the wickedness of the younger generation, but liere is just another instance of where they ar e not willing to use candlelight when they may have electricity.

Writing on the Stairs.

Persons of the city are continually protesting against the highness of the taxes. Perhaps a small amount could be taken from their burden if their own children would discontinue the practice of leaving their names written on the stairways of this school. It might not be a bad idea for school opinion to awake here. It would seem as if the majority of persons in this school who do not support this kind of thing would take action against it. All the rules laid down by a committee of either council or faculty members would not be nearly so effective as the combined force of public opinion taking action in the initiative form.

Initiative, like co-operation, is a much-talked-of thing, but all the talk does not seem to arouse the latent spirit. It seems that people will go on their way and let a small minority do disgraceful acts. Perhaps the minority is so lacking in conscience that it is adamant when criticized. However, if opinion fails, force can be resorted to and made effective.

It seems tlh:at some action should be taken at once either by the council, the fa(lulty, or the student body as this thing has continued too long.

"Inasmuch as our greatest concern is to preserve the wholesome elements in the characters of our young people, and to insure a development into a strong manhood and womanhood. with a will to combat evil, the superintendent feels that he has a right to the active support of the parents in these matters of standards and ideals.''

The Carnival Substitute.

That the student council knows when enough is enough has been proved by its action in rejecting a carnival substitute. The given this decision was that there are too many other proJ?cts n e edmg the students' financial support and that the carmval would crowd out other events of more importance.

'The charge has be en made that a student in this school cannot get along unless he is wealthy. That the students themselves they sh?uld not go too far with money-spending propos1t10ns is clear. With the two plays, the opera, and other coming events, the students' pocketbooks will have a sufficient burden. If. the perso:is who protest over not having a carnival will stop to thmk of this aspect of the matter p e rhaps they will not be so anxious to have a substitute.

Motion Picture Matinees.

The idea of having motion picture matinees on Fridays after school is a good one. But there is one obstacle, that of financing them If there was some way of finding out how much the students suppoi;t them it would facilit a te matters a great deal. The committee winch would have charge of this would have to have the entire support of the school. A show for the entertainof forty or fifty people would not be successful, just because would not pay, and, secm_id_ly, because it would not be fulfilling its purpose, that of .entertammg the_ student body. Pictures that would really could_ be obtamed, not just travel pictures and short subJects. Some pictures two or three years old which are _up-to-date in almost every could be secured' for a nommal. sum, this !fi,aking the price of admission lower. Features of favorite shows, such as "Monte Cristo," "Prisoner of Zenda" and Sawyer" _which have been filmed in the last five years and whrnh are considered moving-picture achievements could be shown, being both entertaining and educational.

The purpos e of thes e shows should not be primarily educational, but rather entertaining:, for that is what is back of ·the idea the furnishing of the right kind of entertainment. It is felt that too often the commercial theatres do not give this , although there has be en marked improvement in recent vears since the hand of censors hip threatened. The lurid and the sensational are not so often shown, but there is still considerable of the frothy ''jazz typ e " of comedy-drama which could well be eliminated.

The purpose of this matinee should be to cultivate as well as satisfy good tast e. What the public n eeds is not censorship but education in good taste.

Good taste is to be had not only in speecli and dress but in the reading of bo?ks. That is one of the big aims of the 'English department of this school, to teach students to have <Yood taste. Sometimes it is like trying to make the proverbial horseb drink but even so, a few ideas that are taught sink in. 'l'he matinee shows would help this along greatly by getting students interested in the stories talked of in the literature classes.

Still there remains the problem of financing them. This should be worked out by the student council as soon as possible.

Clapping in Assembly.

M. R. CARLSON GIVES TALK ON SALESMANSHIP

Lectures to Third Period Commercial Classes.

A lecture on "Salesmanship," by M. R. Carlson, of the Knox Publishing company, was given Wednesday, March 29, during the third period in the high s chool a uditorium. All students who ha d .commercial classes during that period attended, and also the third pe1riod chorus class. Mor. Carlson had with him si!ides, two of which were cartoons, and the rest cha rts to illustrate his talk.

According to Mr. Carlson only one out of every twenty-five hundred who finished the eighth grade make a success in life. He went on to say that one out of every four hundred high school graduates, one out of forty who attend the univel"sity, and one out of fifteen who graduate from the universilty a're successful in life. He also stated thait five per cent of the busin ess m en of t;oday make large profits twenty-five per cent small profits, while the other seventy per cent lose money. According to Mr. Carlson five per cent of the men in business earn ithree thousand dollars or more a year, five per cent between two and three thous:and dollars and the res;t make less than eighteen hundred do!lars a year.

Mi;ss Ethe! Smalley, who was graduated from Lincoln high school with the class of 1921, is the "faV'Orite teaiche.r" of the prize-winning story, written by Ruth B. Smith, age 9 years, of Palisade, for the Nebraska Staite Journal contest. The Prize won was one dollar.

The letter states:

", was broadcast to the world through the medium of the radio by William Wade Hinshaw's Society of American Singers, some of whom are famous in the world of music. Many letters were received the following day telling that it had been heard for a considerable distance across the country. This is the :first time that a complete opera has been transmitted to the public by radio. From all the reports brought in it is gathered that the solos and ensemble and even the chorus work were all heard to great advantage for a considerable distance. In commenting upon this action taken by one of the leading light opera companies of this county, the Musical America takes into consideration the fact that many of the leading opera companies and their managers, while seeing that a great good must eventually come out of this in the way of musical ture, bewail the fact that if the public is able to sit at home and enjoy the opera they will cease to be able to draw crowds to their houses. 'The magazine, in discussing this absurd fear, states that it will have just the opposite effect, that of making more people interested in the opera than have ever been interested before and that this will consequently increase the attendance at the musical meccas. Just as the phonograph has helped in its way, so will the radio help in this. Modern science and invention have given so much to the world to increase its pleasure that more and more has that little verse of -Stevenson come to be true: ''The world is so full of a number of things

I'm sure we should all be as happy as kings.''

And some of us are surely happier than most kings present time.

Everyone has something to sell, whether it be merchandise, labor, or brains. The ability to talk convincingly is a valuable asset to anyone, no matter what his line of business or social life may be. A person may be very keen mentally, and he may have excellent judgment,_ hut if hr lnckf; the power to express himself Le will be like an unop('ned book. The commoneRt mran s of expressing one's self is through sp eeeh. A thought or idea may be made mor e convincing through speech than by any other means. The opportunities offered high school students for cultivating speaking abilities are so manifold that no one should let them go by. In Lincoln high school, courses are given for the instruction of students along the lines of public speaking and debating. In the city library are books offering helpful material for the inexperienced speaker, telling how to prepare speeches, how to speak without notes, and how to master the spoken word.

Things Accomplished by Council.

That the student council has been hard at work during this year is indicated by the large list of things accomplished already and the even larger list of projects under way. The student council was in charge of the annual school color day. Both semesters they entertained the incoming freshmen at a program. A radio club has been organized in Lincoln high school from the assistance that the council has been able to render to the students who were interested in the forming of such an organization. The student council has recommended that there be a club organized for freshmen boys and also suggested that there be a camera club in conjunction with the Art club.

Perhaps-theo latest council project under way is the purchasing of a projection machine to be used in some of the classes. This is only a partial Jist of what the council has done up to the present time and it is hoped by council members that there may be several additions to this list before June 9.

"The Man from Home."

Unusual is the play that can draw a high school crowd for two nights in succession, unusual both in the play itself and in the way that it was presented. The ].\fan from Home" is a play typically American both in theme and in treatment and the way it was acted by a cast of high school players last Friday and Saturday nights was in more ways than one typically American.

For while there were p erhaps more important parts in the play which were harder in other ways than that of Mariano, this was perhaps one of the hardest. The ability to make onself an Italian at will is not easy. The suavity of a hotel manager who wishes to please all , or almost all of his guests, seemed natural and easy.

The Kenneth Anderson of the other night was not the Kenneth

Anderson of ''Tillie.'' The part was real, dignified, treacherous; 1

it was the Earl of Hawcastle himself.

The transplanted Yankees, the Granger-Simpsons, who as the Hoosier, Pike stated, had absorbed the society column of life, illustrated that this was the wrong one. Tlhe heroine was what every heroine according to the American notion of things should beyoung, pretty, attractive, and talented.

Lady Creech with her inevitable admonition, "Don't mumble your words,'' was well played and even after the misfortunes of the house of St. Aubyn had placed it among the also-rans, she continued to hold it above the vulgar herd and to flaunt it arrogantly in the face of every one.

The Comtesse de Champigny was the sort of villainess that exists in the imagination of all, wicked and beautiful.

Daniel Vorhees Pike of Kokomo might as well have been from any state for his was the part of a typical easy-going American. He reminded one somewhat of Tarkington's other Indiana characters. As has been said before, the play was typically American, being wholesome and funny. It was just simply a good

one that would bear repetition and that would be pleasant to see more than once.

Is Radio a Fad?

It is often h ear d a t the present time that radio is nothina but a fad and will soon p ass away. It can be easily p ro ved in a 0 num· ber of ways that radio is here to stay and may grow to hitherto undreamed-of proportions.

In the first place, radio music as it is broadcast bv various stations now is real and full of life. When one h ears reproduced on a phonograph one is conscious that it is n ot alive and the same is true of pictures in a movie. R:adio, on the other' hand, is not a reproducer, but transmits the actual sound with clear and distinct' modulation. There is radio music in the air at all times. Anyone with a receiving set in his home may hear it. Press 'bulletins, market reports, grand orchestra music, sermons, speeches, and countless other entertamment broadcast from innumerable stations all over the United States may be heard by means of apparatus which any_one can operate without experience. Compact and efficient radio sets are sold by radio dealers in all cities at costs much le ss than ordinary phonographs.

Broadcasting stations are to be given priority over private stations, and broadcasting stations are to be subdivided as follows in order of importance: first, government broadcasting; second, educational and public broadcasting; third, private broadcasting including entertainment and news; fourth, toll broadcasting. Amateurs are to be allocated wave lengths between 150 and 275 meters, which is an increase of 75 meters in the present wave-length. The recom mendations of this committee are expected to become a law soon.

Clean Up Campa.ign.

Have you noticed th e general clean up epidemic \vhich is taking Lincoln high school bv storm?' Our departed alumni would scarcely recognize the view from the entrance of the high school. The same old cling-clanging railroad is still there, to be sure, but b eyond that the landscape has been thoroughly camouflaged. The once popular dump grounds to the north east of the bui.lding has been graded up and planted to grass and shrubs. Farther north the new community bath house breaks up the formerly monoton ous bleakness of the land. New shrubs and trees have b een planted on the lawn and everything possible has been done to help beautify the school surroundings.

The Aeolian Singers Club.

T•he Aeolian club, which is one of the new organizations and was formed under the direction of H. 0. Ferguson, sho,'\-·s that a great love for music has been developed within the past few years in the Lin coln high school. It shows that work in the glee clubs has caused a finer appreciation of truly good snusic. The cause of interest of its members in forming this club is probably found in the good times had in glee club and also the realization that they have acquired something that will be of value all the rest of their lives.

Smiles.

It has been said by professors that this is a "hard boiled" age.

It is an age of "wise guys" and witty sayings, such as: "How do you get that way?" "Where do you git that noise?" etc. To be "hard boiled" necessitates a grim face and a burly manner. T he victim of such a misled conception of manhood hardly ever smiles; if ever, it is not the "real" smile of genuine joy of life or good friendship. Henry Ward Beecher says: ''Nothing on earth can smile but man." "Gems flash refled.ed light, but what is a diamond flash CQmpared to an eye-flash and a mirth-flash? Flowers cannot smile; this is a charm that even they cannot claim." You don't have to be a humorist and keep a grin on your face all the time nor do you have to smile at things meant to be funny which

A great deal of comment seems to have been raised not only in the Lincoln high school, but in other schools ss well about the manners shown by the students around the school. It is not the business of The Advocate to reform the world, but nevertheless it is, not a bad thing to comment on certain phases of school life brought to notice aO'ain and again. One of the things that seems to be stirring the school world to its depths at the present time is this same talk about manners. One of the best papers on the exchange list, the Topeka 'World, runs an editorial commenting on both sides of the question. It stat es that two editorials were handed in dealing with this question and taking opposite sides. One of them commented favorably on the conduct around the school and away from it and the other took the opposite view. Still a third said that the conduct on the whole was good. Now probably all of them were riO'ht each havin<>' seen a different set of students. However, there stfn i:emains the of hovv many and what percent of students disgrace the school by their unthinking actions. Probably a'bout was four cents. Other news

Two lmndred and sixty-five students from out of town are registered in Lincoin high school. This means that that many students either pay their own tuition or are sent here by their school board to complete their education. This is often done where a complete twelve-grade course is not offered in the home school system.

The state law provides for the education of boys and girls up to a certain age and this makes it necessary for many who have no chance for a high school education at their home to obtain it somewhere else, where there are the required facilities.

A program given oy the various community centers of the city was put on In the high school auditorium Thursday night. The main attraction of the evening was the play "The Flapper," given by the Clinton com· munity 'center. Mrs. Eileen Harrison, a for:mer editor :of the Advocate, has charge of this center. The play was written by Mrs Roy Richards and I directed by Miss Ma:rguerite Polk, bott' 0 f C'linton nt.,1·. 'J"h0 was made up entirely of high school students.

Language iciubs.

Every once in a while a new organization is formed in the high school. One of these , formed not so very long ago, Le Cercle Francais, is very active. It would seem that nothing could be more productive of good results than a club organized for the purpose of advancing the 1speaking kno;vledge of a language. Much of the trouble in the past in acquiring a foreign tongue has been due to the fact that there is such a small chance of speaking it in this country. This would be materially helped by such a club.

During the semester the French club, as it is commonly called, has produced several plays for the amusement of its members at the meetings. "Barbc-bleuc" and "Pauvre Sylvie" are two that come to the mind, the latter being rehearsed at the present time. It requires much energy and talent to put on a play in French and it is a different and amusing sort of entertainment.

For the ·benefit of those who do not take French, but some other foreign language, such as Spanish or Latin, it would be a good idea to form clubs of this sort. There are many plays in Spanish which would not be verv hard to put on. Some sort of entertainment could be got fro.rd the great -amount of Latin literature, for it is knowledge of the literature that counts in the study of this language. This system would probably make less drudgery for the persons who find the study of any language difficult.

Knife Only Cure for Dandelions.

Doubt has already ·been expressed as to the efficacy of the present method being used to exterminate dandelions from the campus. Miss Muir believes the only sure cure for the weed is the knife cure, and furthermore she is almost willing to challenge a picked team of knifers from her second period news writing class to pit their strength against the gasoline squad of l\fr. Sorensen, to prove her conten tion

As a suggestion for the good of the school, the student council might take the matter in hand a promote such a contest to settle the question once for all. Tihere is a great field to work in and plans should be started at once for the meet. No doubt it would take the coaches, Mr. Sorensen and Miss Muir, some time to round their respective teams into shape, lbut a few weeks upon the flowery 'Campus 'vould put 'both teams of weeders in trim to enter upon the field for honors about the time of the olympics.

Advertising in the School Paper.

In a recent issue of one of The Advocate 's contemporaries is published an editorial; "IShould We Have Ads?" 'This paper has evidently not paid much attention to the business end of publishing a paper. The way 'l'he Advocate makes itself pay without charging too outrageous a price is by its advertising. This is a benefit not only to the paper in a business way, 1but also to the down-town firms which advertise in the paper.

Links has been a decided success," stated Albion Speier, business manager of the annual. "Although the price of the book is nearly double that of last year, our subscription list will not be reduced.'' The "court cif injustice" which convened in a recent assembly, stated that the Links must sell 2,400 copies. The Links like any other party in a law suit, pleads for twice the amount it really expects to get. The Links therefore won its suit since between eleven and twelve hundred copies have been sold. Twelve hundred copies represent more than the twelve h Undred people who buy them. Many high school students have brothers and sisters in school so only one book is purchased for the family, but in many cases the individuals desire their own book.

Are Bow-Wows Conquering?

Is Lincoln high school going to t h e dogs ? This dismal pro;;;pect hardly seems possi'ble to u s but from the reports of some of our alumni it would seem that the old schoo l isn't what it used to be. We readily admit the fact that L'in coln high school has changed 'with times, but we also believe it has changed for the better. Statistics show that at the present time , Lincoln high school carries more elective subje cts and has more organiza ti oris and chances for recre ation than it has had at a ny time in the past. So ·when you hear a man or a woman t elling how his cla ss from L. H. S. was much livelier than they a r e now, just invit e him to some schoo l affair and let him see for hims elf. However , we must admit that the man who is loyal to his class, and thinks it the b es t ever turn ed out, shows the right school spirit; but we must also state in defense of our present class that in most cases this is more a case of sentiment than of truth.

If the students wa l king to and from school would think hO\v they feel if someone rwould cut across their lawns I believe they would not take the short-cuts. A student who has had to spend evenings digging dandeli ons, planting flow ers and grass, knows that it isn't an easy matt er to keep the lawn looking presentabl e. Furthermore, everyone likes flowers for they beautify the surroundings. One should not be so selfish as to think only of his own yard, but should have respe ct for the property of others.

Yellow Pest Doomed Under Onslaught of General Sorensen's Royal Brigade

The back of the advance ol thOl Dandelion army that appeared and took possession of the high school campus is gradually being broken by General S orensen's army of the Royal Yardman's Brigade.

General Soren:sen maneuvering to the center flank of the yellow army Ct>used a wedged shape retreat by his gasoline attack. Following close upon this victory h e concentrated his for ces upon the left of the central wing in close combat necessitating knives. The yellow army, although up to full war strength is seen to be slowly falling back and the line of combat being steadily pushed to the curb. There remain forces of th e Yellow army in the east, west, and south th ea tres of the campus which are daily becoming stronger and rec eivin g r e-enforcements. It was announced that a student army from various home rooms would be sent to cut off this growth and unl ess this is done it is very doubtful if Gen eral Sorensen can rout th e invaders from ·their strongholds. The gas attacks for the present have been suspended and will not again be used a gain because of th e disabilities caused in the last attack. Casualties of the yellow a rmy have been exceedingly heavy. The center front sector was completely annihilated by the gas attack. The left wing of last week's engagement reported heavy losses. Losses to the Royal Brigade have been of no imp ortance. General headquarters to date estimate the cost of the war at $00,000. The date for the banquet was c;hanged
