DAILY NEBRASKAN'S SEC
OND SEMESTER PLATFORM
1. Clean politics in competitive
campus affairs.
2. More paid readers on the
campus.
3. A wider scope of news.
4. Realization of the new gym
nasium and stadium.
5. Lower prices to University
6tuder.ts.
6. Each student an "unofficial"
staff member of the Daily Ne
braskan. A REMEDY FOR DRIVES.
Early last faal the Daily Nibraskan
again revived the proposition of
charging students a Single Tax for
seveial of the more important col
lege activitios-as basket-ball and
football games, dramatic entertain
ments, All University mixers and sub
gcriptions to the daily. This tax
which amounts to from three to five
dollars a semester in schools where
the plan is worked successfully, would
be paid by the student registration
week as a part of bis registration
fees. The student would pay this
Single Tax with his registraf ion fees,
and drives and campaigns that seem
to strike the student body when they
are in the most dire financial straits
would be methods of a by-gone day.
Once not many years ago Nebraska
students voted to adopt the Single
Tax system. Then in an uncxplain
ahle manner it was dropped. A live
issue should not be allowed to slip
from our consideration.
Single Tax for every student next
fall would eliminate drives for foot
ball tickets, would do away with
Daily Nebraskan drives and with
campaigns to Bell paste-boards tor
basketball games. The details of
the system could be easily perfected.
The students should declare them
selves in favor of such a proposition
and then the Regents should act on
the results of the student vote.
EXTRA! EXTRA! EVENING SHUN:
5 CENTS.
Saturday night when you meander
to the High School auditorium to wit
ness the annual University Tassing
Show, you should provide yourself
with a nickel. The Evening Shun
win sell eossiD heaped upon a silver
platter for five cents the scoop. The
rrrrbers of Siema uena nn.
.roattni? the Shun, and who will dis
tribute it. announce that students
mist present the exact amount for
ih ncanda! sheet, as the pse&i oe
rrand for the publication and the
larP number ot copies to De ais
tributed. make It almost impossible
to make change at that time.
Pontes of the Shun may be obtained
Monday. February 2S. at the College
Book Store for ten cents each for
those vl'o pre not fortunate enough
to f Main their copies Saturday night.
The Shun this year takes on the
ast.ect of a mammoth metropolitan
.Ttnn.rt of the yellowest of yellow
Journalism. The headlines are more
fa?hy and the Morles are more nar
in? !n .vpr before. No bit of cam
pi scandal baa been spared from its
columns.
Five cents will enable you to wade
in University scandal from September
until February. You will be able to
swim in It If you can't wade. Don't
forget your nickel.
THE BUNGALOW MAN.
President Wilson has coined a new
word. He has let the "bungalow
man" make his debut with the defini
tion "he who has no upper story."
The college men who attends
school out of curiosity alone is a
good example of "bungalow man."
His parents give him the money
which will supply his needs at the
university he chooses to attend. They
probably never inquire whether or
not he makes hia hours or whether
he is taking any particular course.
In this case, they too, are "bungalow
persons" of the worst type. A
"bungalow" student cannot be entire
ly blamed for the privilege given
him by a "bungalow" parent. If
curiosity and not education is the
c! ;,nnel the student chooses when he
conies to college, he should be given
nn opportunity to realize his mistake,
or else his parents should be made to
see that this curiosity is the result
of their own Indifference.
Student Opinion
In reply to the student opinion that
appeared in the Daily Nebraskan
Monday, I wish to say that the singlo
tax would keep many students out of
school. A number of us are forced
to work eight hours a day to pay our
expenses.
Suppose that through the singlo
tax we buy tickets for the football
;nd basketball games, etc. Some of
us fellows enjoy a football game as
much as anybody, but we are working
all the time and cannot attend the
rtmes.
Is it fair to make us, who are
; niggling to make our way through
rhool, help support these activities?
LAW, '22.
The idea of publishing a Greater
Nebraska Song Book is really a big
one and I am strong for it. A uni
versity without traditional songs is al
University without college sprit. 1
talked with Ward Randall one even
ing on the campus in front of old U
Hall when he told me how he came to
think of collecting Nebraska songs in
one big book that would express the
spirit of our University and the great
state to which its services are dedi
cated.
He said he heard the Ann Arbor
students one night at water fette on
Lake Michigan when boys and girls
in the canoes and sail boats all over
the bay took up song after song in
praise of their alma mater. He said
that he saw then what it meant for a
school to have songs which everyone
knew and could sing, songs, which
would be handed down year after year;
and he resolved then to start a move
ment at his own alma mater toward
collecting a body of songs and ballads
representing the life of the school, Its
traditions and ideals.
This seemed to me a splendid and
worthy Idea. It is one, I believe, that
ill do more than anything else to
bring our 4,00 students together and
make them one greate chorus of loyal
Cornhuskers. Song is the inspiration
cf patriotism, the glow of loyalty and
fe of traditions; wherever these songs
are sung, around the piano, or on fete
days, or at athletic games, those Corn-
hukers who Join in the singing will
ftel and become a part of the greater
Nebraska spirit.
The idea Is a splendid one, and it
will mean a great deal to our univer
sity, in my opinion. I have not seen
the songs which are to go into the
volume, but if they carry out the ide.il
which Mr. Randall, and other members
of the committee with whom I have
come in contact, have expressed as
their aim, I am sure they will b? of
this character, and that the book will
not only be worthy of a strong student
support in a financial way, but it will
also be well worth publishing for tiie
pleasures and benefits it will bring to
future Nebraskans and praises It will
sing to the honor of the University.

DOCTOR EARHART ADDRESSES
FRESHMAN LECTURE CLASS
Teachers' College Instructor Tells
First Year Students About Im
migration Problems.
Dr. Lida B. Earhart, Instructor In
the Teachers College addressed the
Freshman lecture class Tuesday on
An Intimate View of the Immigra
tion Problem." This was the first of
a series of lectures to bo given con
cerning Immigration.
nr. Earhart for several years was
closely associated with the education
ot foreigners in New York. She tola
or the difficulties rought up y the
differences between prolems Intro
duced by different nationalities. The
Italians and the Jewish people seem
to bring more problems into New
York than any other nationality. They
have had the least opportunity In
their own countries. The good in
them must be brought out by the
American democratic spirit through
the public schools.
The Jewish people from the south
east part of Europe have had few
things in their Uvea to endear them
to Christians. "Is it any wonder,
Dr. Earhart asked that they hold
themselves aloof from the people who
they think are their persecutors?"
"In the slums where the low classes
of these people are found, supersti
tion, ignorance, and filth are abund
ant." Dr. Earhart said: "These peo
ple must be taught in schools that the
laws are fo rtheir protection and bene
fit. They muts bo taught good habits
of living and aided in the setting of
high ideals."
We Americans must know and ap
preciate the fact that we are examples
to these people. In conclusion sho
said it is our patriotic duty to give
these foreigners all the help in our
ower toward the road of good Ameri
an citizenship and thsi can't br
one by calling them '"Wops," "Shen
s," "Bohunks," or "Micks."
