A SINGLE TAX APPEAL.
We are back at Kebraska lor the second post-helium year. The
urst year alter the var showed laat tiieie was reserved for the fol
lowing terms an aCded improvement, several st-mesteis ago the
Swisrle Tax System was voted oa favorably at this University. Why
was dropped flat can only be guessed. The plan was mentioned
fcgain editorially by the Daily Nebraskan last year, but no definite
cxticn was taken by University authorities in tie matter.
For those who do not know what the expression "single tax"
means, briefly, it is as follows: when the student enters the Univer
sity at the beginning of the fall term, no matter whether he is a
beginner or an advanced, student, he would be required to pay, along
with his registration fees, a modest amount say $10-which would
include admission to every University activity during the entire
school year. Football, basketball and baseball games, University
mixers, track meets, banquets, and other traditional functions, would
all be included in the amount. Ten dollars from every student would
mean a fund of approximately $50,000 a year to devote to University
activities. It would prevent the "Bluffer" from shrinking from buying
loolball tickets and U would find a welcome to the student whose
bank roll is low the last few months of the school year and yet he
wishes to attend certain scholastic functions. "It would be a fine
thing," said a prominent Junior during the summer, -to know that
you have already paid for each function as it comes along, and to
know that all you have to do is to present yourself at the gate and
walk in."
The Single Tax Han should not be frowned upon as something
intangible and something childish. It would do away with the print
ing of tickets and would assure the financial success of every enter
prise. The system should "be controlled by the registrar, to whom
the single lax fees would be paid along with registration taxes, and
a committee of faculty members would have the direct management
cf the plan in charge. We urge that because of its favor with the
majority of Cornhuskers that the Single Tax System be submitted to
a vote at this University or adopted automatically.
THE OPENING RECEPTION.
The annual reception for all students who have returned to Ne
braska this fall and particularly for new students will be held Satur
day evening from eight until eleven o'clock in Art Hall on the second
floor of the Library Building.
Students find that the reception which is given by Chancellor
and Mrs. Avery is a gathering at which they become acquainted with
more of the University faculty and students than at any other event
during the school year. It is one of Nebraska's oldest and most
cherished traditions.
One of the first duties of the Freshmen is to organize. That is
rchr the coming reception is given especially for beginning students.
University life is more than the routine of one class after another.
It is the making and keeping of friendships with people from many
parts of the state and country.
Freshmen will talk of their "first impressions" Saturday night
with-upperclassmen who are also invited to be present to show the
first-year men and women how to become saturated with Husker
tpirit. With an earnest desire to have every Freshman at Nebraska
this year imbued with the maximum amount of loyalty to our school
we urge them to be present in Art Hall Saturday night at eight
o'clock.
IS THE IRON FENCE A TRADITION?
Some have said the tall iron fence that sfl stately surrounds the
University campus is a tradition. Others are of the belief that it
was erected for a purpose. Still others hare struck the nail on the
bead when they say that in 1S20 this iron fence is a visible limit to
the University itself that it prevents the Greater University from
being dominant. If it is included in the plan for the Greater Ne
braska to tear down this fence which is no longer the boundary line
between University and city then let it be torn down speedily. If
the destruction of the fence is not provided for in the plan for a
mightier manufactory of education, then let it be incorporated into
the constitution. For beauty's stke alone it is not desirable, but it
does not represent the true boundary between the University and
the city of Lincoln. The University has outgrown its little fence,
and wants to expand. liet it do so.
