Circulation Manager Newt Editor LEONARD COWLEY For This Issue TO PRESENT NEW ISSUES. Tomorrow at the regular convocation hour, will be held a mass meeting for the purpose of presenting to the student body two vital questions the. honor spirit and a new constitution for the Student Council. These are propositions which are of real interest to every Nebraskan and are to be settled by the whole school. This convoca tion is to present the facts and a vote will be polled later. Perhaps the most interesting feature of the plan is to try to put the honor spirit into action to a small degree during the coming mid semester examinations. In this way, people will have an actual idea of its practical working value and will be better able to discuss the subject when it comes up for vote. The honor system is being in stalled in many of the largest colleges of the country and as a matter of fact, Nebraska is a little slow in taking up the gauntlet in the fight. Let's have some real interest started during these discussions, for whether it passes or fails is going to affect every student in the University. It has been suggested that student opinions would be a good way to test the campus barometer on the question, so if you have any ideas for or against it, the Daily Nebraskan will be glad to publish them. "Winton Churchill has created a furor in England by saying that labor is not capable of governing. Probably not. Neither is capital. In fact, government is a task in which proficiency has never been exhibited by any group or party." NEBRASKA SHOWS SCHOOL SPIRIT. The 1920 Cornhn-ker campaign closed with the highest record of subscriptions ever reached in the University of Nebraska, the list totaling approximately 2.100 books sold on the city, farm and Omaha campuses. The result of this drive most admirably proves that Ne braska University is up to the top in school spirit and loyally, for the sales were made to more than two out of every three students on the campus. It is a splendid thing when the annual year-book of a school gains the prestige and reputation to be so popular among such a large group of students. It is when this loyalty and local pride reigns that real things can be accomplished in a college and this cam paign is an inspiration to those who are working for the "grea'er University of Nebraska." DOES COLLEGE PAY? '"Does college really pay?" is a question that bothers not a few people. There seems to be some strength in the argument that after all college satisfies a craving of the mind but goes only a little way in satisfying the body with the physical necessities of life. That is. college may fulfill the desire one has for knowledge, but is not an altogether sure bread-getter. With graduate chemical, mechanical, and electrical engineers getting only $90 a month with a semi-annual advance of $10 for two years (this is exactly what a certain gas company now offers for trained technical men and what the government is offering to graduate engineers of two years' experience), and milk peddlers get ting $150 a month and commission, it is not surprising that many undergraduates get disgusted and think, "What's the use?" They know that they can go out into the world, learn some trade and in a year or so earn more per week perhaps than their instructors are earning in a month. But they do not know that Just now the whole wage scale is in a state of supreme disorder and confusion, that the present scale Is bound to revert to a properly proportionate state whereby he of higher intellect and training will demand the higher pay. Just such a movement is now on foot The laborer got his pres ent high wage because he organized and went after it The trained of mind, profiting by the laborer's example now place their demands on the table and it is inevitable that they be acceded to. If pecuniary reasons alone bring the student to the university, he can rest assured that the time Is not far off when the financial re ward of the man who has acquired a technical college education will far exceed that of the unskilled, unschooled man.
