The campaign is being carried on by about thirty girls who will invade every corner of the campus the remainder of the week. Here is the very best oppor tunity for every loya' Nebraskan to come up to the highest standards of patriotism. And best of all. he wul get his entire money's worth out of the book. The Cornhusker is the result of six months hard ami con scientious work by a competent staff who are working to make it the best possible book for your pleasure. This annual year-book will be a joy to every student, not only the day or the week that it ap pears, but years afterward. The main features are to be the student life and athletic sections, and they are to be complete in every de tail. Iast year, the general plan was a military memorial and as a result, many of ihe campus interests were curtailed. So this year's book should prove especially popular because of the renewed em phasis on college life in normal times. In all probability, there will be no danger of your not seeing a solicitor, but in case you should not, do not let that check your sub scription. Take your money to the Student Activities' office or call the Cornhusker office and tell them that you have been neglected. They will not delay in sending you a subscription blank, and a pretty girl to deliver it for you. The staff feel that they must sell twenty five hundred copies in order to cover expenses, and it is "up to you" to put over this drive. There will be no later opportunity to order the book, so be sure to bring your money immediately. DON'T COUNT ON READING YOUR ROOM-MATE'S GET ONE OF .YOUR OWN. LET'S PUT THIS ACROSS! GOOD FOR THE COMMERCIAL CLUB. We wish to especially commend the Lincoln Commercial Club fo their far-sighted and generous action in their land resolutions. ThJ fact that the business and professional men of this city are sufti ciently interested in the future welfare of our University 6hows thai Lincoln watches out for her educational interests. To set aside such a large plot of land for the restricted use of buildings pertaining only to University affairs is to prove a great blessing to our school. First, we need have no further worry that the Union Pacific or Rock Island trains will lend their musical noises to our already busy, humming campus, and we will at least have the option on the bells which may ring either for time or service notice. In addition, this plan will tend to bring the necessary business and social organizations actually of value to the students and faculty closer to the campus center. This land option will be an encouraging factor to the people interested in the new dormitory system for it will give them feasible grounds to establish their plans. We hop? that the expectations of the commit tee that Nebraska would soon be three or four times its present size, will inspire the legislature to speedily provide adequate means to warrant such an extensive development. AS TO MENTAL SUPERIORITY. It is satisfying to learn that the honor of making the highest number of points in the freshman class was won by a mere man. True, it wasn't necessary to prove the mental superiority of the sex what man doubts that. It is comforting, however, to know that such a concrete piece of evidence is at hand for use whenever a dispute arises. Even though the masculine debater is sometime forced to admit his own mental limitations, due to absorption in things more important than study all he need to do is point to the achievements of this fellowman. In looking back on those generations of ancient times one cannoi help but lament an advantage his forefathers bad. They were free from any of the modern-day feminine equality harrangueB. Blessed were their days and dutiful and bumble were their wives. If they wanted a drink their help-mates went to the well and brought It to them. How different it is in this age of Pan-Hellenic and Women's Self-Governing Associations and co-ed basketball tourneys. Who gets the drink now? And pays for it, too, if it isn't a son of Adam? And back in the good old days and this is the reason they were called "good old days" what damsel would have dared assert that her brain was made from the same stuff ber husband' was, or tha she had as much "right to determine who tbe next president was to be, as he did? How restful it must have been in the "cave man" days to t. your sister that Noah was a Frenchman and thereafter hear her him "Frenchie" without the least suspicion that you were kidding her. And what a relief it must have been to the teachers in medieval times to know that their class rooms would be free from the presenr. of embryo Emily Pankhursts and sundry other would-be political and economic feminine theorist, who neither enjoy sleeping or eating half so much as a good free-for-all scrap on the Justification of the tariff or the menace of the saloon. But a few more William Strain and men may again establish tL "good old days" even at DePanw. The DePauw Dally.
