OBSERVING TRADITIONS
Within a month, university students
from the entire state and surrounding
ftates will be flocking into Lincoln by
the thousands for the opening of the
.hnnt vor Amone them will be
some twelve to fifteen hundred fresh
men men.
To these freshmen, Magee's Clothing
company will give free of charge green
caps to be worn by them every school
day until after the Olympics and,
after that if they don"t beat the sopho
mores.
Two years ago, a price of $1 was
nsked for each green cap sold to the
freshmen. More than twice as many
freshmen as ever before wore the
caps.
Last year, Magee's lor the first time
pave away the emerald headgears and
a lot of the fresnmen wore them. A
lot of them wore them once or twice,
then disgarded them in favor of "Sun
day" hats and caps. A lot of them
vore them only when they felt pa
triotic which, in many cases, was nt
often.
This year, some four hundred, a
hare third, of the freshmen will as
iisual be required to wear the green
caps very school day between th?
hours of 8 a. m. and 6 p. m., at least.
Their fraternities will force the issue
on them.
But the other eipht hundred or more
freshmen will, unless something is
(ione, wear the cars, either not at all
or only when they feel like it, which
probably will not be often. They
will have no guiding hands to remove
their good head gears in favor of th ?
hhining green.
It is up to the members of the sopho
more class to see that this tradition of
the freshmen isvpbserved. Not a few
s-ophomores can enforce it, every sec
ond year man must "call" every fresh
man who appears on the campus with
out the green taps. If the violation of
the tradition gets general among tha
freshmen, measures? will have to be
taken to "force the issue."
The Iron Sphinx, sophomore men s
society, will, in all probability, assume
the lead In forcing the wearing of head
gears. It being a non-fraternity as
well as fraternity man's organization,
is the proper group from which the
tradition's enforcement should be had.
But they roust have the cooperation of
all the upper classmen's organizations
and from the Green Goblins, fresh
man men's society, if the tradition 1e
to be enforced upon every freshman on
the campus.
IT'S MOSTLY "U"
"Take a tack and get a little pluck.
In every man's work there comes
time when he has to use a lot of
pluck, and ithat is when he haa to de
cide something for himself. He con
quers his job and about that time op
portunity usually comes along land
gives a nod and a beckoning Anger
It is then he haa to decide for himself
to make a change or stay where he Is
for the rest of hla life. You see lots
of men around you that didn't hare
the nluck at the right time. Luck
follows Tluck, and remember there
is a great big 'U' in twin of them
Daily Tribune."
How much truth there is In the
above narazraDh is realized by all
men who have had to fight their way
onward and upward to success thru
out life. They know that the "luck"
cf life is mostly what "U" make it and
ihat luck follows pluck.
riucking away day after day at one's
work, he is certain some day to get
"luck" and succeed. The little knocks
and downfalls which he experiences
only serve to help him to further effort
and to make him work harder to ac
complish that in which he hopes to
succeed
Students do not get through subjects
by "luck". It is by "pluck" that they
nake their grades. Some are "lucky''
enough to pick the right pages to
"cram" upon and so beat the fel
low who has studied it all. That Is
a chance. But in the end the other
nan, the one who kept plucking away
day after day, will have the luck and
will win out.
So it is mostly "U"; U in pluck and
U in luck.
FAITH
Faith is the dynamo which generates
achievements. Faith sent Christopher
Columbus across the unknown sea to
discover a continent. Faith landed a
band of pilgrims on the New England
coast and found the Jamestown colony
Faith abolished slavery. It was th
greatest war in history. Faith is dyn
amic in quality.
As a man thinks that, will he be
come, if he nas raitn w nis aointy to
achieve, he will achieve. Let him once
Jose faith in his power, and he will fail
to accomplish his desire. Roosevelt
Lad great faith in his own ability., Ha
Eccomplished many things. William
Rainey Bennett says. "Every man has
within him a resenoir of untapped
strength:" Only faith will ever tap
this reservoir and utilize its power.
Faith is often referred to as "blind
faith." That is because faith begins
where actual knowledge ceases. Faith
inspires people to struggle on in the
face of apparent defeat, and sometimes
to wrest a victory from it. The hew,
war mad and fighting on a battle field,
upheld by faith in himself, his leader,
or his cause, has many times turned
the tide of battle and changed the
history of the world. More often than
not, it has been when knowledge oi
how the result was to be obtained
was lost in sheer faith that it could
be done.
Faith makes living in the face of dis
couragements, possible. Faith looks
forward to a future that will be brigh
ter ithan the present. It makes it pos
sible to "clothe the waste with dreams
ol grain," and on the sodden plain of
reality to "paint the golden morrow."
