A SPLENDID RESPONSE
The results of yesterday's referendum are most satisfactory.
This vote of more than 1,100 Is larger than any other vote ever cast
at this university and speaks well for the institution. The Interest
displayed in the matter means a high grade of citizenship. The
results -which have been flashed over the country will compare favor
ably with those of other schools. It has been demonstrated that
students and faculty have the nation's welfare at heart and respond
royally when called upon. Congratulations, students and faculty,
upon your response. ,
NEBRASKA'S MEMORIAL FOR HER SOLDIER DEAD
In commemoration of the brave men who gave their "last full
measure of devotion," colleges and universities throughout the coun
try are planning fitting tributes. The University of Nebraska is
taking steps to preserve the memory of her soldier dead in a con
crete manner. A commitee composed of representatives of the facul
ty and administrative departments of the university is now consider
ing plans in this connection. Data from other schools in regard to
their memorials is being collected.
Projects launched by other schools vary from the $1,000,000 loan
fund being raised by the University of Texas to be used In assisting
returned Texas soldiers to attend the university, to a row of cedar
trees each with a slab bearing the name of a hero to be planted on
the campus of Montana University. Many colleges are building
memorial halls, others are erecting tablets and busts to be placed in
prominent buildings. As a rule the memorials are being financed
by means of subscr ; lions from alumni and undergraduates.
For her sons and daughters who made the supreme sacrifice
Nebraska would offer grateful and appreciative tribute. Although full
power cf action and decision rests with the committee in charge,
perhaps suggestions from students, alumni and faculty of 'ho univer
sity would not be amiss. The erection of a cement grandttand,
similar to the one at Chicago University, with dressing rooms and
showers beneath, is advanced by one student. Another offers ihe
idea .of a memorial building like the Union at Illinois and other
schools. Such a building affords a meeting place for students, where
they can study, read, talk, or merely while away leisure moments on
the campus. 3moking rooms are provided for the men, also barber
shops and shoe shining parlors. All meetings of student organiza
tions are held there, as well as meetings of a more public nature.
Other suggestions will be welcomed by The Daily Nebraskan, and
signed student opinion letters will be published.
GOOD RIDDANCE
The entire nation breather a sigh of relief when the "Soviet
Ark" left America with its cargo of reds. And now the nation is
drawing another breath preparatory for another ligh as the next
ark leaves.
The undesirable communl s, I. V. W.s. anarchists, and bolshev
isls are being surely weeded out of the country. Those who escape
deportation or other punishment will be left without loaders. And
without leaders this class of society counts for nothing. They only
followed the lead of the radicals because it was the easiest course for
these most shiftless, lazy, worthless individuals to follow. They have
no ideas of their own. Their conception of a- government turned up
side down was given them by the very persons who have been or will
be deported.
The trouble the radicals have caused in this country has no
doubt been due for the most part to the feeling of unrest that swept
the world at the close of the war. All the world knows what the
results were when the communists gained the upper hand in Russia.
Austria is Btill in the grip of the red movement.
But with the leaders of the radicals removed and their followers
hunting another policy to adhere to, it is not too much to expect
the United States to soon regain herself and become the gathering of
peaceful inter-dependent groups she was before such things as
radicalism and bolshevism were given serious thought. If they have
any reason whatsoever left even though It be ever so perverted the
former radicals, reds, and I. W. W.s cannot help but understand that
their methods will not be tolerated. And to avoid punishment these
persons must turn to peaceful pursuits of honest occupations. Work
is the real cure for unrest and nervousness, whether it be individual
or national.
In a few years the people with the bolshevist ideas of today will
be ashamed to admit ttat they uce stood for that standard, The
Unlveulty Dally Kansan.

The movie haircut, as everyone is
doubtless aware, is the permit ting of
hirsute adornment to accumulate
around the ears, and does entirely
away with the use of the clippers In
removing it. Though comparatively
new here, it has been in vogue (oi
should we ray in vanity fair) in the
east for some five years, and in Just
about due in Lincoln, owing to the
government ownership of railroads
which has delayed transportation to
a great extent. We have exclusive
interviews with prominent ptople,
which we will submit, and trubt that
you will glvem consideration before
casting your vote in the coming refer
endum. We will now publish the lntcrv.tw
with A. Barber, prominent tonsorlal
artist (Great Britain rights reserved).
He spys: "I am in favor of it. Foiui-
erly it took much time to cut the hair,
but now the student gets in the chair,
asks lor the new haircut, we give hini
a neckshave, collect fifty cents and
send him on his way rejoicing.
Though the people in the barbershop
lrom now on will lead the people to
think of the shop as a Bolshevik hot
bid. still the shortness of time now
required to cut the hair, and its conse
quent increase in our income tax,
nioit than compensates for it.
MAID PROPOSED TO MAN
MARRIED A MINUTE LATER
"Watch out, fellows" that is the
warning that Frank Ashren, '23, wish
es to give to the men of the university.
This year is leap year, and Ashren
says that he holds the record in mile-
a-minute marriages. At one minute af
ter 12 o'clock New Years Eve Mr. Ash-
ton took as his lawfully wedded wife
Miss Helen Hoggatt, of Kansas City,
Kan., and promised faithfully to love,
honor and obey her principally to
obey her. " Watch your step." says
Ashren, "these girls don't stand and
argue when it comes to leap your
marriages. In just one mlnuto you on
be informed of the plan and in the
next minute she has you." Daily Kan-
san.
Mr. Father, proud parent of a col
lege student, Is opposed to it. In port,
he says, "I am forever opposed to the
new haircut. My son, who left home
with a number of good habits, returns
with a haircut, which he says makes
him look like the leading man of Nor
ma Talmage, but to me, he looks like
the perfect counterpart of a protege
of Emma Goldman. It keeps me busy
explaining to my friends, who inquire
as to haircut of my son, that the bar
ber t in Lincoln are on a strike, which
accounts tor the imitation of an Aus
tralian bushranger by my heir pppar
ent. My son and his friends at school
probably resemble the personnel of
the soviet ark which left recently for
Russia. Even the barbers are not
working there, I have admonished my
son that if he wishes to continue his
scholastic pursuits, he shall at least
attempt to cut his own hair, with
whatever implement that will serve
the purpose."
