Today Is Church Day
Churches of Lincoln, in opening their doors
today, arc extending a special invitation to
University students. Serniyns have been pre
pared with particular reference, to sludents.
Chancellor Boucher endorsed the All
University Church Sunday with Hie statement
'fVc hope that students who have had church
affiliations before coming; to Lincoln will con
tinue them here.'' Students who fail to attend
services today when they are especially urged
to attend will probably pet out of the habit
they acquired while at home.
The Daily Xebniskan can only add its voice
to that of 1hc chancellor in urging ehurch at
tendance today. It dues not matter which
church . . . just go to church today!

Unionizing
Th6 Uni Family
Student Union board of managers are giv
ing faculty and administrative staff members
as -well as Lrucoln alumni an even break
with-tfe student body. The board voted to
open all Union privileges to non-student nieni
lacrs of 'the university family, charging them
the vJatmnr student fee of $3 per semester.
Membef'slfip is entirely voluntary but "an
active nve from the chancellor down" wf.s
urgfSabj.a faculty member of the board.
- ljeulty members, administrative staff
officials and Lincoln alumni want to dine in
the' faculty dining room, to lounge in the fac
ulty tpmige. to "coke" if they are so in
clineoin the grill room, to dance in the ball
room, to play in the playrooms, to read in lhe
browning library and to take in recitals and
addresses, they can by paying the regular
membership fee. Wives, husbands, fathers and
mothers of such non-students are naturally in
cluded, just as a student member has the priv
ilege of bringing his parents and relatives to
the Student Union.

Books
One ihousand dollars has been
donated by J. C. Seacrest, promi
nent Lincoln publisher, for the pur
pose of filling the bare shelves in
the browsing room of the student
IT. The money will be spent by a
student committee composed of the
Btudent members of the student U.
board, in conjunction with the uni
versity librarian, Donald Miller.
So far, the shelves of the room
contain some of the more popular
of the recent books. Particularly
noticeable is the wear which the
books of Mart Sandoz have re
ceived. Slogum House, the book
which was criticized frequently by
public officials as being too im
moral for the shelves of a public
library, appears to have been well
read. Some ot the more vivid de
scription which is contained in the
book has been ripped out by some
AensuaUbtic individual, who didn't
realise that much more exciting
Vhrds can be found in a copy of
Websters.
Governmental Interest.
Included also In the present col
lection re the following best sell
ers or former best sellers: Raw
ling!' The Yearling; Pitkin's Life
Begins at Forty; Robert's North
west Passage; and Mary Queen of
Scotland and the Isles, by Stefan
Zweig.
Especially aware of the acute
situation in Europe are the readers
of books. So great has been their
demand for books explaining the
European concoctions of govern
ment, and the European conglom
eration of minorities that nearly
every war correspondent in Eu
rope has been putting in every
spare minute writing essays,
books, and articles of that type.
"Political Refugees.
Correspondent Gedye of the
Times retells the already old story
of the Hitler assimilation of Aus
tria, In the Rape of Austria. In
The' War Against the West, Aurel
Kolftai explains in a complete but
unbtaacd fashion the geology of
the nazis; Geoffrey Carratt, lib
eral correspondent from Spain and
Ethiopia, condemns English con
servatism as the cause of Mus
solini's aggressive attitude.
tirothy Thompson, wife of Sin
clair Lewis and prominent re
dactions of the University family to ils
opportunity of being "Unionized" have not
been popularly heard. Neither have students
been loud in their opinion of the board's ac
tion, l'erhans both fail to understand that the
Student Union building is being thrown open
to the entire University family.
Students need not become alarmed over the
faculty's membership in the Union. Students
will have the highly successful grill room to
themselves, because faculty members entertain
no desires 1o enter the inner sanctum of col
legiana. "Coking" does not appeal to 1hem.
Faculty members are often reluctant to act as
chaperons for dances. They are even more re
luctant 1o get on the dance floor, so students
may rest assured that the professors will not
be crowding them off the ballroom floor.
In no way will the students lie imposed
upon by lhe University family's entrance. The
"SUIU' will still be' the STUDENT Union
building, of, by and for the students of lhe
University. Student members of the board of
managers recommended lhe invitation to 1he
University family, after sounding out, student
opinion.
This concession to lhe University family
culminates a faculty-student dispute lhat has
persisted since the Union was but a hole in the
ground. There will be some students, however,
who will resent giving the faculty any part of
the Union. They will charge that lhe faculty
hat! no hand in it. lhat it was solely a student
enterprise. And there will be some faculty
members who will resent paying $3 per semes
ter in order to dine and lounge which, in real
ity, will be about all the .I'actiliy plans on doing
in the Student Union.
It is mandatory lhat all students pay the
Union membership fee each semester." The

ODDS AND ENDS IN THE
WORLD OF BOOKS:
Lin Yutang, the Chinese educa
tor, must be smiling these days,
for his book, The Importance of
Living, remains after tour months
the non-fiction best seller. .. .The
only other non-fiction book thiit
has approached lhe tremendous
sales of "Lins" book, has been a
sarcastic version of the English
customs by Margaret Halsey, With
Malice Toward Some.
In the field of fiction, however,
there has been a complete turn
over during the summer months,
with Rawlings' The Yearling dis
placing from the top of the lisl A.
J. Cronin's Citadel.
Bertrand Russell, the 70 yeaitold
educator who recently married a
28 year old English girl, has con
tinued his writings after a year of
inactivity. His new book is entitled
Power, A New Social Analysis.
Readers who delight in vivid,
realistic description (which Dan
Butler would call immoral) will en
joy three' of the most exciting
hours of their lives, when they
drink and curse and sail and make
love with Earnest Hemingway in
To Have and Have Not.
Hemingway is the adventurous
man who punched Max Eastman
on the jaw when Max insisted that
the red hair on Hemingway's
chest had been pasted on by a pro
fessional beauty operator. . . .Hem
ingway, incidentally, has just col
lected his short stories and his
only play in a new book called
The Fifth Column and the Forty
Nine.
Another of the modern liberal,
dynamic writers is John Dos Pas
son, traveler, correspondent, and
author of the Big Money. His new
novel. Adventures of a Young Man,
is a "modem portrait, so says the
author himself It is interesting
to note that the three most liberal
writers of the day have been dis
covered because of their war nov-
Power of Habit
Dally Tar Hrcl," North Carolina I'nlvtrsity.
A man sat in his apartment late at night
and picked up peas with the hollow end of
his corked-tipped eigaretle.
First he lit the cigarette, fumbled around
on the table, finally captured a pea in the hol
low end, and then ducked the cigarette in the
ash tray.
For three hours he repeated the process
lighting a different cigarette, capturing a pea,
and ducking the cigarette in the ash tray. The
tray was piled high with butts.
Finally he became so expert that with his
attention liverted he never failed to capture
a pea in lhe cigarette's hollow end.
Rut the man was not just playing a game.
The next day he walked into a jewelry
store and asked to see lhe stock of unset dia
monds. The clerk put a tray of sparkling gems
on the table.
After lighting a cigarette, lhe man called
the clerk's attention 1o an unusually large
stone which he had picked up in his left hand.
Automatically his right hand, with the cig
arette, lapped casually upon the table until he
had covered a diamond with lhe. hollow tip.
Lxplainiug that he would have to post
pone the decision of a purchase, the man am-
ileil casually over 1o another counter and
ooked blankly at a display of watches.
Finally, heading toward the door, he
looked between his fingers and found the cig
arette missing. From force of habit he had
ducked it in a tray on the showcase.
The store detective saw it there, butt up
right, with ils unusual setting glistening in lhe
light. Before the thief reached lhe door he felt
a firm hand upon his shoulder.
People in lhe psychology building claim
that habits are valuable to everybody because
they conserve energy.
The force of habit, says William .lames.
phychologist and philosopher, ' prevents the
hardest and most repulsive walks of life from
being deserted by those brought to tread there
in. It keejs the fisherman and the deck-hand
at sea through the winter; it holds the miner
in the darkness, and nails the countryman to
his log cabin and his lonely farm through all
the months of snow."
To everybody, then, habits are valuable
because a great amount of work can be done
without an equal amount of conscious effort
being necessary.
But to the freshman ajjearing alone for
the first time in a new environment habits
become a primary consideration.
He will probably see the greatest change
in his everyday living since the time his mother
took him to school for matriculation in the
first grade.
Into an unexplored wilderness he will
build a system of little "habit-grooves" that
will railroad him through'each day of the com
ing four years.
Once a habit system has been built it takes
twice as much effort to renovate it. When the
constructor finds he is building in the wrong
direction, he not only has to rebuild but he
must destroy the old structure.
The diamond thief forgot that part of hs
habit chain would have tobe destroyed before
he could succeed.
Exercising, eating, making friends, study
ing, and sleeping will soon be out of the con
trol of the freshman. His habits will take into
command his daily living and he will become
a victim of himself.
No freshman can avoid habit making. The
undesirable ones will be easy. The desirable
ones will require constant attention.
When graduation day comes in 1942, every
rising alumnus can look backward and see the
character he built in four years. H will be the
sum of those habits he has formed.
But to the freshman appearing alone for
attention diverted he never failed to capture
in. It keeps the fisherman and the deck-hand

"Cleaning up" campus elections

in Velma Ekwall's Politics group.
For erasing double voting, the
Missouri system of putting acid
on each voter's hand so that he
cannot return again with another's
identification card was lauded. The
group approved new identification
pictures as a double check, and
the point system over the merit
system for picking candidates.
