PAGE TWO THE DAILY IOWAN STATE UNIVERSITY OF IOWA Tuesday, January 28, 1919 The Daily Iowan The Student Newspaper of the State University of Iowa Member Iowa College Press A morning paper published for the period of the war three times a week - Tuesday, Thursday, and Sunday - by The Daily Iowan Publishing company at 103 Iowa Avenue, Iowa City. Entered as second class matter at the post office of Iowa City, Iowa Subsciption Rate $2.00 per year Board of Trustees C.H. Weller, chairman, E.M. McEwen, E.S. Smith, Gretchen Kane, Alice Hinkley, M. Elizabeth Hendee, Mary Anderson Editorial Staff Editor-in-chief Mildred E. Whitcomb Telephone Black 1757 Office Hours - 8 to 12; 1 to 6 daily, Room 14, L.A. building. Managing editor Rowena Wellman News Editor Ruth Rogers Pink Sheet Editor Helen Hays Humorous Editor Elizabeth Hendee Exchange Editor Marie Kellogg Sporting Editor Leon H. Brigham Business Staff Romola Latchem - Business Manager Telephone 935 Office Hours - 3-5 daily 103 Iowa Av. Edw. Chamberlain - Advertising Mgr. "I have never had a policy. I have simply tried to do what seemed best each day as each day came." - Lincoln. Night Editors Beth Wellman, Ruth Rogers 3000 Miles The time was when the United States, secure in her distance of three thousand miles from the "European war," stood for the Monroe doctrine, a sort of lofty isolation, once so prized by Britain. Now, since our victorious participation in the "world war," we can no longer go our way. We must link ourselves to the Allied countries as guardians of world peace and civilization. The average University student knows lamentably little about world affairs. He reads magazines, but usually fiction. "Freedom of the seas" to him means something about Britain's navy; the Balkan question has something to do about a war which happened several years ago and about which a returned missionary talked in the home village church. University women are probably more limited in their vision than the men. It is not that they are willfully ignorant, but that they have never had their eyes opened to the vast possibilities of a world citizenship, far different from the limited privileges of voting for the school board. But world citizenship carries with it not the responsibility of going to the polls. It is more a matter of feeling, a mental attitude. Three thousand miles is a little distance in these days of international friendship. The student mind should accustom itself to thinking in these vast terms of nations, not counties. Let us develop international vision, not township peering. ----- For High School Teachers Some really commendable work in the field of student publications is being done by high schools of the state. The weekly, bi-weekly, and monthly papers they publish would put to shame more than a few college sheets. Journalism in its simpler form is being tried with success in the high school curriculum at various places, and its influence on the quality of the high school publication is readily noted. News writing, under the guise of English composition, is being generally tried out in Iowa secondary schools, and high school pupils dote upon it. Students in the college of education who mean to serve in the high schools of the state will find the "glad hand" awaiting them if they have some knowledge of the technique of putting out a paper. Coaches for debates and plays abound in high school faculties, but it takes a different sort of knowledge than the average English instructor possesses to supervise a high school paper. A book on news writing, advertising, and printing will little avail the teacher on the staff of the high school paper. Practical experience in college journalism and work on the college paper will enable the prospective teacher to assist in this type of work. A far sighted education student with interests in this direction and with a desire to be of great service to the high school he or she may enter will not overlook such experience. WHAT OTHERS THINK SHE NEEDS YOU! "Oh boy! big game on Saturday night! Going?" When you were in high school and Walnut Grove was coming down to play your home town for state title, you didn't wait to be asked. You went. No one had to come and prod and poke you for the fifty cents. No, sir! You were there with the old gold and purple pinned on your lapel a yard long, and the Cedar Rapids pennant waving like mad on the end of your cane. Oh boy! You almost fell out of the balcony cheering the team on to victory. But it wasn't just the boys. You were there, too, Alice and Jean, everyone of you, West High, Council Bluffs, Ottumway, Albia, Davenport, and Fort Dodge. You didn't miss a game, did you Oh girl! Those were the days. And now you are in University. Can you ever forget those old times and can you ever outgrow the fun and excitement of a good game of ball, when the gym is packed, the score a tie, everyone breathless; till Olie rolls in a basket, and then the crowd goes wild? You can't. Be your old high school self. Be natural. Turn iut in a crowd with the girls and come on down to the gym. Live the University spirit. Don't lose yourself in that narrow, selfish zone around your nose and the telephone. Be one of the school. Belong to your alma mater. She needs you. P.L. ------------ LEAVE BOOKS FOR STUDENTS Th text-books of Joe O'Donnell, a junior in the college of applied sciences, who died in October of influenza have been turned over by his father to Dean W.G. Raymond to be loaned to worthy students in the college. ADVERTISED LETTERS MEN Brown, R. A. Griffith, J. C. Hamilton, Wm. Homer, Rev. Benjamin Jones, R. W. Lawson, Ralph W. Loan, E. R.

M. ------------- RAKER BILL IS ENDORSED ------------ State Nurse's Association Favors Giving Rank for Army Nurses --------------- Support of the Raker bill pending congress' action which will give rank to army nurses, was voted upon at the convention of the Iowa State Nurses association in Des Moines last week. This bill will give the nurses authority equal to their responsibility. At present the American nurses have no power to command the orderlies to definite duties if an army officer wishes to intercept the order. In several cases cited, the loss of time caused by counter-orders, has resulted in serious complications in the wounds. Canadian and Australian nurses have much greater authority than the American nurses, and only because the American men are accustomed to treat women with respect, it is said, were the American nurses able to establish their splendid record. -------- Let The Iowan be your letter.
