Preparation for Journalism.
Preparation for University
The veteran journalist, Chas. A. Dana,
of the New York Sun, recently gave a
lecture on Journalism before the students
of Union College. What he said in re-
gard to the proper preparation for the
journalist ought to be of interest to all
University students. We therefore give
some extracts.
The young man who is going to be a journalist should get a first-class course of general education; and if I could have my way, every young man who is going to be a newspaper man, and who is not absolutely rebellious against it, should learn Greek and Latin after the old fashion. I had rather take a young fellow who knows the Ajax of Sophocles, and who has read Tacitus, and can scan every ode of Horace—I would rather take him to report a prize-fight or a spelling match, for instance, than to take one who has never had those advantages.
When you begin to practice the profession of a newspaper man, then is the best time to begin to learn it; but while you are in college, with the daily series of professors, and all the appliances of study that belong to the college, make the best of them, and pursue vigorously those studies that give accuracy in learning, and fidelity and accuracy in recitation. This will enable you to report accurately, precisely, without exaggeration, without prejudice, a base ball game, or a sermon, or a lecture on electricity, whatever it may be, exactly as it is.
You should learn the English language thoroughly, and cultivate the ability to use it, though a good style cannot always be acquired by practice or study. Everybody who is going to practice the newspaper profession ought to know the Bible and Shakespeare and Milton. The Bible is the book from which you can learn most directly that sublime simplicity which never exaggerates, which recounts the greatest event with solemnity, but without sentimentality or affection. Shakespeare is indispensable to a journalist. Yet take no model for style. Every man has his own natural style, and the thing to do is to develop it into simplicity and clearness.
In order to be of importance in the newspaper profession, you must know politics, and especially American politics; not merely the theories and doctrines of parties, not merely the recondite part of politics, but you must know practical politics, the history, the men, the individuals, their ideas, their purposes, and their deeds; know them if you can as they really are, not as the blind and the prejudiced may imagine them to be. Yet you must not stop at American history. You must know first of all the history of England, then that of every European country. The course of human history offers a safe guide for human action, and especially for political action.

B, Barrett, of Pittsburg, Kas, has a policy in the Northwestern for $2,500. page 15, date Nov. 5th, 1887, dividends used to reduce premiums as follows:
Premium, Dividend, Per Cent
1880 * $124 73 * $83 90 * 37.1
1890 " " * 36 90 * 29.3
1891 " " * 36 75 * 29.3
1892 " " * 75 08 * 40.2

Policy holders in other companies are asked to compare their dividends with the above, and produce its equal if they can. Why don't you exercise the same care and judgment in buying life insurance that you do in other important business matters. Is not the matter of a few thousand dollars to your families of as much importance as the buying of a suit of clothes or a load of wood.

The Iowa Game.
Cornell, umpire; Heath, referee.
Iowa has a much heavier team than Kansas, but the Jawhawkers have had more practice, and seemed to understand the game better. At the beginning of the game the average weight of the Iowa team was 170 pounds, against 160 pounds the weight of the Kansans.
A small but enthusiastic assemblage saw the first of the series of inter-state football games last Saturday at Kansas City.
For Iowa, Elliot, Myers and Rodgers did the tie playing, while Champlin, Johnson, Williamson, and McMurray made the gains for Kansas. Although very stubbornly contested, the game was full of errors, mainly fumbles and poor interferences. Johnson made an excellent drop kick goal from the twenty yard line.
Platt proved his efficiency as a line player as right tackle. Captain Elliot of the Iowa team had expressed his desire to play in the line against Mr. Platt, and many people were disappointed that he did not do so.
The teams lined up as follows:
K. U.
Steinberger
Matteson
Hamil
Harvey
Grimiths
Platt
Shephard
Williamson
Champlin
MacMurray
Johnson
