Passing lp Iteauty
And Popularity.
7ITH somewhat less lanfaie ol
publicity than accompanies
the selection, of beauty queens and
popularity girls, women students
today will select a list of candi
dates eligible for recognition in
the senior women's honorary soci
ety. The qualifications, in the
main, are supposed to be actual
accomplishments and demonsUated
ubility.
Popularity and beauty may en
ter into the selections, but without
disparaging either the popularity
'r beauty of past members of
Mortar Board society, we believe
that these demerits aie actually
net the prime i caserns fur mem
bership in the society. We say
believe, we mean hope. Popular
ity may be gained from accom
plishments. It may also he lost by
it-ason of accomplishments i ask
some politician i. So popularity it
elf is not necessarily an indica
tion cf usefulness or worth.
Reality likewise is a pleasing
attribute, but beauty gets plenty
of recognition. n fact beauty is
"ften recognized in preference to
'ther qualities more necessary for
the end in ?iew. (Take marriage
I or example. ) We heard of a pro
fessor 'who said that a beautiful
l i i'l was always worth an 80. Well,
nyway, we think beauty pots
-ery bit cf recognition it de-s-l

intelligence, service, and lead
ership frequently receive scant at

Serving More
Than Students.
V7H1LE bored undergraduates
have been seeking Sunday
afternoon entertainment every-
j where but on the campus, they
j have overlooked a feature spon
sored bv the university which has
'attracted thousands of Lincoln
J people and their children to a uni-
V(:.rjty building Morrill hall.
There, for eighteen weeks pro
grams of an unusual and instrue-
j live nature have been presented to
' the public.
j The popularity of the scries of
museum lectures and moving pic
tures is attested to by the con
tinued cod attendance, and last
' Sunday, concluding this year's
presentations, over a thousand
1 persons saw a jungle film which
i had to be shown three times,
j Miss Marjorie Shanafelt. cura
tor of visual education, has been
in direct charge of the weekly mu
seum programs, and to her must
go a large part of the credit for
their success. But other members
of the staff of the' university have
been di awn on, thus making the
project an all-school affair.
The success of the programs and
their cultural value cannot be
overlooked as significant of one
way in wnrch the university
readies beyond the boundaries of
its euineulum to serve the people
of its state. It is reassuring evi
oence of the value of educational
inst itutions.

Book Will Be Unique.
"The 1933 Cornhusker is a dis
tinct departure from that of other
years," Skade stated. "This year's
feature section will be1 twice as
large as last year's and every
group and event on the campus
will be represented in it. Both the
feature and beauty section will be
in color, which with the novel pictorial-advertising
section and new
style of print will make the 1933
annual a truly unique book."

. rpOUR hundred million dollars a
i year is spent by the United
States government for medic al aid
to vctcians of the World war for
ills neither directly nor indirectly
sustained in the war itself. In
other words the government has
assumed the responsibility of tak
ing care of all men who ever wore
the uniform whether they ever
went out of the country or ever
suffered any ill effects from their
war service or not.
A man who was drafted into the
j K. A. T. C. and served ten days or
j so in a training camp, who falls
; off a ladder while painting his i
; house, is entitled to free hospital
! and medical service, according to
i provisions of Uncle Sam's gener
: osity. The sob sisters and the vet
jorans' lobbies hae seen to it that
, the doughboys have bee n well
taken care of.
As a matter of fact the veterans
and those sentimentalists who
have spemsorod this cutting of
holes in the povernment's purse
are defeating the very ends which
they are seeking to serve. No one
denies that veterans who actually
served or sustained injuries in the
' war are entitled to generous treat-

j The speaker- stated that many
people are wondering how the
' enor mous project could be financed
i at the present time. The whole
! thing is a nonprofit corporation
j with an original bond issue of ten

Advanced sale of tickets and of

enough to finance it." Haein said.

The affair is to be staged along
the lake shore on land manufac
tured by army engineers. Sand
was sucked in from the lake and
built up a new shore of three and
one-half miles.
"The National Research Council
was called in to plan the program"
stated Mr. Haein, "and they have
prepared a vast drama built around
science. The central budding is the
Hall of Science' where all the basic
sciences are dramatized so that
they may be understood by the lay
man." From the basic sciences the pro-

Stud-Tits in the pageantry course
-,i.M,itiivai rollecc are look
ing lorward to a very busy two
months. The annual pageant is to
be given Mav (. and it is the task
of the pageantry class to organize
and prepare for this tremendous
undertaking.
The class has spent the lasi
semester in a detailed study of
pageants past and present, espe
cially the gorgeous involved
pageants of history, given as en
tertainments for kings and nobil
ity. After learning the form and
elements of a pageant, each one
suggested ideas for pageants, dnoe
on a more modest scale than those
of the oast, but none the less in
teresting. A pageant on the history
of paintings, with living pictures,
was one suggested, and another
was on the growth of the Univer
sity of Nebraska.
With all this practice, the pag
eantry class is well prepared to
undertake this year's pageant. Ali
I the details of the pageant will be
worked out in the class. It is their
duty to arrange the settings, the
stage and the props, select the
cast, design and make the cos
tumes, or secure them in cther

Imagine the embarrassment of
a hen (fowl species) to know not

result of Hcnoeracy- not technoc

day. There a man has 50,000 hens
in an empty fashionable hotel. The
hens produce on a big scale. As
soon as the hen lays an egg, it
