A GENUINE ACTIVITY
Republican or Democrat? Hoover or Smith? Curta or Reed? Are the questions of the day that rank with the oil sands, the South Clara flood, and Lindbergh in front page newspaper space and importance.
Any student at the University is offered the chance to parakee in a national convention, a mock one to be sure, but one that will be conducted exactly like the national convention of both political parties. The mock convention will be Republican. Student opinion made it so. New students must make the mock convention a success.
Politics are good, bad, or indifferent in accordance with the amount of interest and intelligent participation on the part of the people. The university student should feel at a stage enforced by higher education to do little to be a good citizen and supply the country with the best officials.
Ignorance of political ways and means is a handiwork to the individual who wishes to be a good citizen. The mock convention at the University only asks for the chance to wipe out part of the wide-spread political ignorance.
For years, it has been the cry that there are too many activities. Numbers are useful. Others are nonsens. The
student must choose his activities as he thinks he will devise individual bettermart and also contribute social bettermart. That, in a word, describes the purpose of those who are backing the Republican mock convention.
They're numbering the bombs in Chicago now. Number 62 is the latest one.
LINDBERGH GROWS WEARY
LENDERCH GROWS WEARY "Lucky Lady," the headlines declare, is looking for a quiet place to stay. From the very first he has sought to avoid the cheap publicity arranged for him on every side, even showing irritation at the series of long-distance flights and stunt exhibitions the government has required of him.
Lindbergh is not level-headed to be found into believing that the stunts he has been doing are the sort of thing by which aviation will develop in usefulness. He knows them to be just what they are—seasonal advertisements intended to create public interest in aviation.
Now he thinks there has been enough laughabout there by flying. He wants to quit stunting, and do some real flying.
When he finds that quiet place he is now seeking, it will be in service similar to the air mail, with which he was first connected. He knows that the future of commercial aviation lies in regular flying routes, dependable schedules, and adequate landing fields at convenient points.
Some day aviation will be as dependable a means of transportation as railroads, automobiles and steam ships now are. When that point is reached we will give thanks for the young leader in aviation who has kept a level head.
WATCH YOUR STEP
Despite the thermometer's reading this morning and lowering skies, Spring is here. And with spring comes a new green dress for the campus.
And with spring also comes the question of making paths across the campus where no paths should be. During the winter, when there was no grass to trample and the hard ground did not show the effect of the trees students have become careless a keeping to the walks. Some of the "Follow the Walk Phone" signs now decorate rooms and some have be come broken and taken away as rubbish leaving only the iron posts in ruin (the sign).
A campus with a green coverlet in a beautiful thing, but a campus with
A campus with a green corridor is a beautiful thing, but a campus with many paths leading no places in particular, and erasing each other, dead prints lining the edges of the tranquiled ramped, is not an inspiring sight. Neither does it speak well for the student's love of their campus.
The administration has indicated to build walks where they would be the most useful and still maintain the diversity of the campus. There can be no real necessity to make new paths. This does not mean that students should keep off the grass altogether. It is a plea, they do not establish a regularly traveled path that will spoil the beauty of the campus.
Yesterday a thief entered the office of the chief of police in Salina and stole his top coat. The chief should be thankful that thief is over and spring is here.
MEXICO AND PROHIBITION
In looming with the other radical changes that have been taking place in the social and political life of Mexico, prohibition has now been injected in Mexican national politics.
"Alcohol is a curve we must fight in order to criticize it from the Mexican family," was the opening gran of enreal Alvaro Oberenon in his fight in prohibition.
Mexico is at last pushing itself through the event of immigration, arrest and deportation that has for years evoked its advocacy.
Ottawa's appeal is directed principally to the rural population, where importance is the greatest and alcohol undoubtedly does the greatest harm.
Whether prohibition is attained in the next election is beside the question. The significant thing is that another step has been added to the stair by which Mexico is already and steadily climbing toward the sunlight of nationalism.
This weather seems to have St. Vitus' vitia? Yesterday morning we were our fur coat, and were very comfortable. At noon we nearly smothered going home. We were back to our afternoon classes wearing light dresses and no wraps. Last night we nearly froze because we didn't wear our fur coats. Perhaps we shall need to carry a wardrobe trunk around with us until Old Man Weather decides to make up his mind.
A 13-year-old Texas girl held eight ward school pupils and several teachers at buy with a call 6581 revolver before she was finally calmed. Her reason was that she had become arrested at one of her playmates at recess. The Kansas City school teacher who used a broomstick on one of her erring pupils should be imported to take care of the Texas youngster,
Some one is always tiking the joy out of life. A Clay Center man wreck his own car Sunday evening, so still being in the mood for driving, he stole the city fire truck and wrecked it also. He received a six-month jail sentence.

A Definition
There is but one logical end in view if the writer has any ability of determining results. The privilege of a judge or judge's deputy is denied as in the same manner on which children are denied the privilege of playing with matches.

A liberal education, in addition to preparing a person for what interests him in winning a living, prepares him to enjoy what he comes in contact with in all phases of living. It deals not only with what he needs entirely but also the innumerable rock which will give him a high kind of pleasure.
It broadens his interests and sympathies in his daily occupation, raising him in mind above the monotony and the rigidity of his work. He is among many workers. By broadening his caribou, it helps him to form his own opinions and press him from the narrowness of everydaymade ideas. It broadens his perspective by uniting his on-inking prejudice.
A man with a liberal education would be open-minded even after learning his opinion. Otherwise he would be burgled and marrow a condition inconsistent with the liberal attitude, but it can be based on dramatic principles.
A liberal education makes a man capable of thinking things out. It does not include a smattering of all things. If a man knows where to find what he needs to know, and has the impulse to learn when he learns how he has the touchpoints which characterizes a liberal education.
This kind of an education is never complete, because if it were ever finished, it would cease to be liberal. It incompetences its purpose largely when it makes a man open-minded, thinking, enjoying, and appreciating.

That students should never remain in class after they have ceased to be interested in the subject under discussion, or after the professor's presentation of his ideas has failed to intrigue them, is the officer which has been issued by a member of the University faculty.
Frequently students are harming similar statements, but little insight is often recorded then. However, even if a student offers to fit advice his class to import as soon as they are no longer interested in the situation affected by the meaning.
"A lecturer knows almost immediately when members of his class have ceased to function with him," this instructor goes on to say, "and out of consideration to himself, to the remainder of the class, and to the present student of our room gather up his intellectual unite and seek other habit."
Such a professor presents rather sturding contrast to another member of the same class, and no student will leave the room unaware any circumstances whatsoever. And conduct, the latter professor believes that he is not unbiased with a college student.
We are inclined to take our stance with the former instructor. University men and women should be efficiently intelligent to discriminate between hours well-posed and hour passed away in a state of boredom because they have been caused to function. And if the student has mentally "hung up" his

Government statistics bring out *that fact* that the uneducated man has only one chance in eight hundred to attain distinction.
Education Pays
The Daily Nebraskan.
Not ninety and women, of course, need to go through college in order to become educated. Throughout history great leaders have risen from the ranks of the uneducated. Some few intellectual gentlemen can acquire their minds themselves. Buturg慧 others have this ability through training to use and develop it. The ordinary person needs a college education to train and develop his mind. He must make the prescribed courses and get the grades will not prepare the mind for the real test of intelligence. The answer, as he studies, should have the reactions though ever before him if he is to succeed. he must be trained and educated to attend a stream of education today, the uneducated person is left behind and the educated man comes to the front. Liberation today is cheap. It may not be a considerable sum of money at first but it will be more than repent for the time and money spent. When buying something in a store, the individual endeavor to secure all and the best he can for his money. He should do the same when buying an education. The teacher will give the chance. It is up to the student to make the host of the opportunity.
