MONEY FOR MEDICAL EDUCATION
Nebraska Lines Up with other states
In Forward Movement.

Nebraska Lines Up with Other states
in Forward Movement.
After long season of neglect, says the
Journal OF the American Medical assOeia.
ton, 1t seems that medical education is
coming into its own in regard to financial
support Such benefactions as the recent
sift of $4,000 from DR.. and Mrs. Robert w.
Long OF Indianapolis, toward the establish
ment of a teaching hospital for the Indiana
University School of Medicine, indicate an
increase of interest in the cause; and not
only are private donors making generous
contributions, but legislatures also are
making more liberal appropriations for the
support of their state university medical
schools. Word has just been received that
In Alabama 100000 has been appropriated
for the support OF the medical school of the
state university for the next four years /;
and from Nebraska comes the news that a
like sum has been appropriated to establish
all four years OF the University of Nebras-
ka College of Medicine on the new campus
in Omaha. A smaller but no less important
appropriation was that of $4,000 by the
Oregon legislature which has made possible
q closer relationship between the University
OF Oregon and it's medical departments
relationship which heretofore has been
largely nominal. Thus from all sections
of the country come tidings of substantial
gifts or appropriations for medical teach
ing institutions that represent the higher
standards of medical education. These ap-
preparations give much encouragement 10
those who have been working for the de-
velopment Of higher standards and lead
one 10 believe that even more liberal APP
preparations will be made in the future.

SCHOOL FRATs cUFFED AGAIN.
Exclusion from Chicago High schools
Affirmed by Board.

Exclusion from Chicago High Schools
Affirmed by Board.
A change in the membership OF the school
board of Chicago was the excuse for seek
ing to rescind the rule against high school
fraternities last week. The change in
membership did not change the sentiment
of the board, and the motion was rejected
by the decisive vote of II to g.
The crusade against the secret societies
was led TO successful finish by Dean Wal
ter I. Sumner chairman OF the committee
on school management The cause of the
Greek initials was championed by DR.. J. B.
McFatrich, president of the board; Frank
!. Bennett and George b. Swift.
Under the rule of the board no secret
society in any city high school will be per-
mitted in any circumstances Pupils must
either resign from societies or be expeIIed
from their schools
Dean Sumner said he had compiled sta
tistics showing conclusively that secret So
ciety members were not good students. In
one school In which were lH members of
sororities and fraternities the average
standing of these members was 74.6 per
cent.
And it cannot be argued that these
children were not normal" said Dean sum
ner Generally they are from the best
homes Of the city and should be expected
TO be well near the top Of their classes.
But they are not good students because
their society affiliations tend to hinder
them from doing good, or even acceptable,
school work"

Joe Leece Advertises
From His Jail Cell to
Secure Ten Dollars
Everything Suggests Money to Man
In Prison, but He is Unable
to Grasp It.

Joe Leece has sat in his cell at the
county Jail since April 10. when he was
bound over to the district court by Police
Judge Callahan OF South Omaha on a
charge OF forgery. awaiting in ever indif-
ferent mood his coming trial. Despite the
fact that he is behind the bars at the Jail
with the doors of the penitentiary ready TO
enfold him, Joe's ambition, or 1t may be
called a penchant, reigns.
The clock ticks and tocks and Joe sits
and conjectures what he would be worth
II each tiny defamation placed a dollar
even a penny-in his pocket. A spider winds
fits web up In the corner Of his cell and
Joe, seeing no flies about, wonders II II
doesn't expect monetary gain thereby
There are nine steel bars in the door of
Joe's cell and one would have 10 hypnotic
him to make him think there are any more
or any less, for he has counted them times
without number-ah, as II they were gold.
Thus Joe Leece thinks OF money and thus
every little thing constantly suggested to
him the idea OF gain, so he wrote the fol-
lowing want ad little dreaming that he Is
going 10 the penitentiary as the authori-
ties declare he Is;

The officers az the county tail aver that
there is no chance for Leece to get out
