OUR. NEW COACH
All who have made the acquaintance
of Dr. Stewart join in his praise. He
brings to Nebraska the proper com
bination to add further glory to our
record on the field of battle. A re
markable knowledge of the game
counted with the highest ideals of
clean athletics, will do much for the
future Nebraska.
But the task he faces is not an
easy one. Nebraska has not met de
feat In football since 1912. As was
suggested at the banquet last night.
It is easier to bring up a team that
is behind, than to please a student
body that has not seen a defeat In
three years. We fac a hard sched
ule next year. Notr Dame, the Ore
gon Aggies, and Iowa not to men
tion our respected opponents of the
Valley, Kansas and Ames are enough
to make any coach lie awake nights.
Furthermore, It cannot be denied
that the coach, will not have the
galaxy of stars that have graced Ne
braska Field during the past three
years.
But if spirit means anything. Dr.
Stewart will be dealing in untold
wealth. Nebraskans from border to
border are ready to do bis bidding.
They are anxious to add every unit
of their strength and Influence to
make Nebraska second to none. The
team's Interest will be theirs.
For Nebraska, We Will.
THE SINGLE TAX
The Single Tax is progressing nice
ly. By the middle of next week if
such does not seem unwise from an
early Interview with the regents--the
petitions so long promised will be
circulated. The opposition to the
movement comes from the inherent
nature of things, not from any par
ticular persons. Very few people per
sonally object to its adoption.
But for the present the matter must
again take a second place. The high
school people are our guests for the
week, and The Nebraskan will give
much of Us space to their affairs.
But do not forget the importance of
the Single Tax, aid remember the
climax is due next week.

"The idea of sending the college
paper to the high school men is a
splendid one, and should result in
great good fo the university." Dr.
Stewart, the new coach, said yester

home state university, so that when
they are thinking about going away
to school, they will be drawn to Ne

PATRIOTISM
' A nation is made great, not by its
fruitful acres, but by the men who
cultivate them; not by its great for
ests, but by the men who use them;
not by its mines, but by tie men who
work In them; not by its railways, but
by the men who build and run them.
America was a great land when Co
lumbus discover ad It; Americans
have made of it a great nation.
In 1776 our' fathers bad a vision of
a new nation "conceived In liberty
and dedicated to the proposition that
all men are created equaf."' Without
an army they fought the greatest ex
istlng world empires that they might
realize this vision. A third of a cen
tury later, without a navy, they
fought the greatest . navy in the
world that they might win for their
nation the freedom of the seas. Half
a century later they fough through
an unparalleled civil war that they
might establish for all time on this
continent the Inalienable right of life.
liberty and the pursuit of happiness.
A third of a century later they fought
to emancipate an oppressed neigh
bor, and victory won, gave back Cuba
to the Cubans, sent an army of school
masters to educate for liberty the
Filipinos, asked no war indemnity
from their vanquished enemy, but
paid him liberally for his property.
Meanwhile they offered land freely to
any farmer who would live upon and
cultivate it, opened to foreign immi
grants on equal terms the door of in
dustrial opportunity, shared with
them political equality, and provided
by universial taxation for universal
education.
The cynic who can see in this his
tory only a theme for his egotistical
satire is no true American, whatever
his parentage, whatever his birth
place. He who looks with pride upon
this history which his fathers have
written by their heroic deeds, who
accepts with gratitude the inheritance
which they have bequeathed to him,
and who highly resolves to preserve
this inheritance unimpaired and to
pass it on to his descendants en
larged and enriched, is a true Ameri
can, be his birthplace or his parent
age what it may be.

CHRISTIAN SCHOLARS,
CHINA'S GREAT NEED
(Continued from page 1)
seizure of Cochin-China, the seizure
of Port Arthur by the Russians, Wei
Hal Wei by the English, and other
foreign aggressions.
The result was the Boxer uprising.
After that China changed her atti
tude and commenced ber new era. In
this work of rejuvenation the mission
aries have had a prominent part, Dr.
Verity said. China came to see that!
her ancient civilization could not'
sustain her. She felt that she needed J
a new educational system, and she t
took the missionary schools as a pat
tern form which to build one. The
eastern nation is now determined to
have a modern civilization.
The wonderful progress of her an
cient rival, Japan, has astounded 1
China, said the speaker. Now 20,000
of ber young men go to Japan to
learn the secret of the mikado's na
tion's power. The Chinese revolution
is the united effort of her people to
gain something that will save their
country.
China's great needs in Dr. Verity's
opinion, are men and women of great
scholarship who are leading the
Christ life. Christian doctors and
nurses, and a more serious under
standing by America and the rest of
the world.
