A dress parade for University students begins to
morrow when approximately S25 delegates to the con
vention of the National Student Federation of America
arrive in Lincoln to remain through Saturday. These
visitors represent 200 schools in United States and
foreign lands.
With the eyes of so many outsiders upon us, let s
get the right foot forward in welcoming our guests.
Several of the Easterners have admitted by letter that
they expect to find O street lined with settlers and
log cabins. Others are dubious about the University of
Nebraska as a fitting place to hold such an important
convention.
Then how, you ast, did this school ever secure an
international meeting. Because last year Nebraska's
two Student Council representatives of this society's
meeting at Ann Arbor, Michigan, personally canvassed
every member of the convention and explained that the
hospitality of Nebraska could not be equalled. Many of
the voters were skeptical but on the final vote Nebraska
defeated Leland Stanford, Cornel!, and institutions of
that caliber. Geographical location had something to
do with the decision, but Nebraska was honored nevertheless.
So students and faculty members, fraternities and
sororities assist the Student Council in living up to
the promises made last year. That will not be a difficult
task. These students will have interesting information
to discuss with Nebraska students. Tell them about this
school, let them tell you about theirs, and they will
depart with the feeling of hospitality they heard about.
Maybe you have been wondering what has become
of that old bogey man of ours the student car prob
lem. To go back briefly: Liist Thursday the Inter-fraternity
Council adopted a resolution which was to be
presented to the Board of Regents. This resolution
contained four propositions: (1) Regist-ation of all
student cars, (2) Written permission of parents for
student cars, (3) Restriction of use of cars to sopho
mores and above in school in good standing and (4)1
Prohibition of parking within the campus area.
The plan, as submitted, was referred to a faculty
committee which will study its merits and then pre
sent it with recommendations to the Board of Regents.
If acceptable to the Regents, the rules "will become
effective next semester, probably for a probationary
period of one semester. This will allow ample time to
test their practibility. If they work out to good advan
tage, they will continue in force permanently; if not,
new provisions will be adopted to replace them.
In yesterday's Soap Box some free-thinking and
out-spoken person pointed out to students that they
did not need nurse maids in college. Evidently the
Board of Regents was acting that capacity, accord
ing to the writer.
Why not wait until th Board of Regents causes
you some trouble, L. M. M., before squalling? It you
disagree with the principle invr'ved then give some
valid arguments and not opinions.
Several Kappa Kappa Gammas remarked yester
day that they didn't "particularly care for" the cover
on the latest Awgwan. "But it's only human nature
after all", as the psychologists would say.
While Politics rages in the newspapers of the
country it is refreshing to edit a non-partisan publica
tion where nobody has to be called a numskull because
of his beliefs.
Dally Nebraska reader art eordially inlted to contri
bute article to thia column. Thi paper, howerer. aaaamea no
reaponsibilitr for the aentiment expreaaed herein, and rs
aervea the ritrht to exclude any liheloua or undeairable matter.
A limit of six hundred word has bean placed all eon-tributlona.
Den- Editor:
It is noon, twelve o'clock; a hurrying, pushing,
chattering crowd of students starts from the campus
toward 0 Street. Engrossed in their own temporary
interests and pursuits, they disregard all the minor
details of ordinary courtesy. However, their deliberate
and scornful indifference to all traffic regulations ds
scarcely excusable on the basis of momentary preoccu
pation with the business of meeting friends and getting
to luncheon. This is indicative of a total disrespect
of the law, as well as the flippant unconcern for rules
in general.
This situation is significant in that it is typical
of the customary attitude taken by students toward
city ordinances. At an age when most students are
impressionable, this cultivation of a habit of disrespect
is likely to lead to further laxness regarding the more
important phases of citizenship. It is the general con
census of opinion that students will ultimately become
leaders in various communities and will display those
exemplary qualities expected of them.
The foundation for sound standards of moral
judgment is laid when opinions arc readily adopted
and ideas easily assimilated. Discrimination as to the
relative importance of apparently insignificant regula
tions is best developed when the mind ds plastic. Later
such discrimination with regard to more far-reaching
problems is not readily acquired, and perhaps, wholly
beyond reach.
P. E. M.
Dear Editor:
There comes a time in the life of a certain edi
torial writer when the spirit indeed is willing, but the
inspiration very weak. Perhaps I am growing old. Per
haps I am just tired.
This much I know
1. The weekly struggle to write worthy of the
approval of your most high highness is slowly wearing
me down. If I attempt to interpret your ideas, I fail
utterly and betray my own; If I attempt to set forth
my own but I haven't done that for so long why talk
about it?
2. I am tangled in a web of words and every edi
torial I write further confuses me.
3. I have grown so absent minded I forget the
object of a sentence whether written or spoken before
dt is fairly begun.
4. The sight of you makes me very unhappy. It
reminds me of a task undertaken in good faith but
poorly executed.
5. What with struggling for the betterment of the
sisters and school of journalism; Bess Streeter Aldrich
and eighteen hours credit, I can struggle no longer.
Sadly but sincerely yours,
(A Contributing Editor)
(name withheld)
Post Mortem: If you insist, I shall continue to struggle.
But really, is it worth the time to tell me what to write
and how only to have to re-write my attempts?
Fraternities Seem to
Favor Plan for Cars
(Continued 'from Page 1)
When we move 5n closer to the cam
pus we will certainly favor such a
plan of control." Ke addei that if
some vt-striction could be proved nec
essary, the Interfraternity plan was
fci.
Delta Oppoaa Plan
Delta Tan Delta is the only fra
ternity near the campus in which a
general disapproval prevails. "We
feel that university students are old
enough to know how to conduct
themselves," stated the Delt pres
ident, "and any students who can
afford cars should be able to use
thesi. That is my own opinion, and
the general opinion here."
The Acacia fraternity house is
some distance from the campus, but
the opinion there is that the Inter
fraternity plan is that best possible.
They expressed themselves as feeling
that any student, before being al
lowed to drive a car, should prove
very plainly his need for it. Phi
Delta Theta, another fraternity away
from the campus, reports that they
have not discussed the plan thor
oughly, but feel that they will favor
some sort of regulation. The Phi
Gamma Delta house la approximately
two miles from the campus, but the
Phi Gams will back up the Interfra
ternity Council in their action.
Outlfrt of Regulation
The regulations of the plan which
was submitted to, and approved by
the Jnterfriternity Council at its
meeting last Thursday evening are:
1. Registration of all student car a,
includfog tboao owned or operated
by Lincoln students, in the office of
the officer charged with the enforce
ment of these- rules. It is also sug
gested that the registration include
the issuance of a special license tag.
2. r.equirinjj written permission
of parents bex'ors a student may own
cr leop a car.
3. Use of cars restricted to sopbo-r-ic-rcs
s -i 1 t" ove in school, in good
f : - in tl.c University, fet in
cases of actual necessity.
4. Student cars not to be parked
within a certain distance of the cam
pus (about one block) between the
hours of 8 o'clock in the morning and
4 o'clock in the afternoon. It has
also been suggested that this rule be
broadened so as to forbid students
living within a certain distance of
the campus to drive to school.
Discussion of the student car
problem by the interfraternity coun
cil, and the student body in general,
has grown out of an order made by
the. Board of Regents on October 22
that, "the use of automobiles by stu
dents at the University of Nebraska
be eliminated, subject to such rules
and regulations as the Board of Re
gents may determine after a special
study of present conditions and
needs."

prisoners enjoying themselves in an
internment camp" and similar titles.
One section of one of the publica
tions is devoted entirely to photos of
ruined French and Belgian cathed
rals, with flamboyant headlines ac
companying the pictures, informing
the reader that these churches were
destroyed by English aviators or Al
lied artillery.
England seemed to be an especial
object of German hatred, and much
space is devoted to caricatures of
England, depicting it as a gigantic
octopus, streching its tentacles about
the world and gobbling up France,
or ns an oppressor of civilization.
Even old print, of the Transvaal war
were called into play, and England
was shown as a country of murder
ers and brigands, ruining the poor
people of South Africa.
Reports of French casualties were
often grossly exaggerate!, while
German losses were always minim
zed, lending the impression that
rVance', outlook was gloomy and
that the Ccrmani were sweeping vic
toriously all over the world.
It seems impossible that anyone
could believe the "news" published
in these papers, yet it is nobable
that an appreciable amount of dam
age was done to the morale of the
French people by Germany's "war
fare with printer's ink."

as a teacher and philosopher, because
of the charm of his words and of his
messages.
Third, Jesus was worthy as a hero.
Doctor Aitken cited Robert Bruce
and Garibaldi as other heroes whose
followers were willing to follow their
leader to death, if need be, so great
was their belief in the leader. Jesus'
friendship for His disciples was a
fine example to mankind, according
to Doctor Aitken.
Fourth, Jesus was worthy of praise
from the standpoint of is miracle
work, especially for His power to
work miracles in the souls of men.
Sacrificial Ministry Stressed.
"The sacrificial ministry of Jesus
is a great and vital thing in the
Christian religion," declared Doctor
Aitken, "and for the value of His
ministry, Jesus is worthy of receiv
ing power, riches, strength, honor,
glory, blessing, and the greatest in
tellectual thought."
In explaining these points Doctor
Aitken stated that the greatest power
is the power of a spirit-filled life,
which a great many people lack. In
riches, Doctor Aitken included not
merely material but mental, moral,
and spiritual riches as well.
Preceding Dr. Aitken's talk, Mild
dred Johnson sang a special solo.
Evelyn Bauer led the meeting.
