Cornhuskers Have Many Occupations
rv.tnm inwvers. farmers, stock
men, merchants, ranchers, labor
ers, ministers, these and all other
occupations that you may find in
Nebraska form the occupations of
parents of University of Nebraska
students.
As in past years, the agricultu
ral class of farmers, ranchers
and stockmen would make the
largest single group if parents of
all students were grouped accord
ing to their occupations, according
to university officials, who have
recently completed a study of uni
versity students' parents occupa
tions. This year the parents of 698
men and 402 women are engaged
in agricultural activities.
Business men and merchants,
the parents of 452 men and 321
women, form the second largest
classification, the same as last
year. Parents in the professional
class, with a total of 437 men and
263 women students, remains the
third largest classification. Within
the professional classification doc

SWAP SHOP IS Y PLAN
TO HELP STUDENTS IN
SALE OFJJSED BOOKS
Store Will Open Jan. 20;
Has Been Successful on
Other Campuses.
Inaugurating an idea which has
nrovcd successful on many other
campuses, the Y. W. C. A. will
open a bookstore on January in
order to facilitate the selling of
used textbooks. It is to be called
"Ye Swap Shop" and will be lo
rnted on the first floor of the
Temple building, at the right of
the counter.
Students may bring their used
books to the store, for which they
will be issued a receipt. If the
books are sold the i. w. win get
a twenty percent commission on
the sale. The store will be open
and at the end of that time those
who have turned in books may call
and receive their money and unsold
books.
The Y. W. C. A. is sponsoring
the store in a belief that it will be
a service to the campus, in that it
will enable students to realize
more money from the sale of their
books than they otherwise would.

remained exactly the same for the
two years, 100 in each case, shows
this study. Other classifications
within the professional group in
clude 161 parents who are teach
ers, eighty-five who are engineers,
and 103 who are ministers.
More laborers are sending their
children to school this year than
last according to the study, which
shows that this year the parents
of sixty students are laborers
whereas the parents of fifty-two
were laborers. An additional 593
students stated that their parents
are skilled trades workers, such as
carpenters, etc. Finally 81 re
ported that their parents have re
tired, follow miscellaneous occupa
tions or are deceased.
