Tuesday, February 3, 1914 PROLOGUE. Tho DAILY NEBRASKAN is hero for sorvico; It 1b hero to sorve you, to Horvo the UnlverHlty. In shaping our policy, thlB shall always bo pro eminent. "What can wo do for tho University?" Is tho watchword. To bo of real Hervlco wo must bo more than a recorder of events past. Wo must become a factor In those yet to come. To do this we must put bo foro the University public thorough UlscuBBlonB of all general subjects. Tho Editor can present his views. But this Is not enough Wo want to know what you think. We want you to toll us what you think In this way the subject may bo treated from every standpoint, giving studonts the whole of tho dlBCU8Bion that they muy form an intelligent conclusion. The Editor invites signed criticisms of any editorial mattor. If you don't agree with the stand tho paper has taken, lot's know why. Then .and not until then, can we got to the bottom of it. Tho paper must take a stand on important questions, a stand which It considers tho best for tho University. But perhaps It has overlooked Impor tant considerations. Perhaps you are better able to know tho facts. All signed articles shall at all times bo printed in tho "FORUM," and if of sufficient lniortanco, shall bo given front-page prominence. In a word, we wish to encourago sano discussion on all questions of University importance. We wish to mould student sentiment by present ing a topic from all angles, by showing each other what wo think, what we desire for the best of the University. Inter-class Debates. Contestants for places on the class debating toamB must turn In their names, together with the class and side taken, to their class committee or Professor Fogg by Saturday, Febru ary 7. H.

Studonts of tho UniverBlty and some officers of tho sUo house believe thero is no difference in tho civil rights of a convict and of a foreigner, as far as attonding tho University Is concernod. Foreigners enjoy all tho rights of a citizen oxcept tho right of voting. Convicts do not enjoy any civil rights. Our profeBBors were not classed with tho German convicts, for instance, when they worked for higher dogreos In German universities Thero aro Boveral convicts taking correspond ence work, but are in no way classed as students. Their names do not ap pear on any official record. They pay no fees. They receive no credits for tholr work. They have no more claim on tho University than they have on tho congregation of the minister who preaches to thorn each Sunday. If at any time Murphy, or any other convict, shows a full pardon and suf ficient entrance credits it would not bo necessary for the University au thorltios to pasB on tho propriety of admitting him Murphy will not bo ublo to register before he Is given a a full pardon. He will then be eligible to any rights a citizen may enjoy p " r "" "" r "n r "" CONVOCATION. Jupiter Symphony . . . Mozart Edward J. Walt, first violin. Mrs. August Molzer, second violin.

Mrs. Do Vote No Longer Attempt to Make Her Family Eat Hyglenlcally. "I did not see you at the domoatli science lecturo yesterday," said Mrr Twlnklor "No," answered Mrs. Do Vote "Thero is no use in my studying do meatic science." "Why not? They toll you Just whaj foodB are to bo fed to children to maki them grow in a healthful manner an develop properly." "My children don't want to heai about foodB that aro good for thorn s my husband. I don't dar Neither does my tell them that a certain food is good for them. They will novor touch it if 1 do. Thoy think It in the medicini class. v "I UBed to feed them rlco. Rico, ai I learned when I attondod the lectures, Is rich In protoln, and tho body re quires a certain amount of protein. "I explained It all to my husband and the boys and that settled the rice ques tion forever. They said they didn't care for drugs with tholr meals. They said they ato for tho fun of tho thing; not for their health. "They made all sorts of fun of mo. Mr. Do Vote would flay: 'Have some proteidB, boys,' and tho boys would re spond, 'Sidetrack 'em, dad.' "It was the Bamo with albuminous foodB. They wouldn't eat eggs. They said they didn't care for albumen. I quit Just In tlmo or they would have abandoned tholr cereal in the morn ing. "Some people want to be 111, anyway. It would bo a deprivation to them not to be ill. Suppose old Undo Wltter kop should cure himself of all his all monts by eating proper foods. What a lot of good fun he would miss! "Undo Wltterkop likes to take modl cino. He can have more fun with BUch symptoms bb he can extract than he can with a Japanese puzzle or a cheml can experiment. It 1b sclonce, philoso phy and mental exercise to him to find out hlfl Bymptoms. Thoy are his com panions morning, noon and night. "When ho discovers a new symptom ho foelB that life Ib worth living.

If the symptom wins ho rubB his handB. It Is a splen did game. "It would bo a shame to feed Uncle Wltterkop properly and thus deprive him of all that sport. "So I have decided to drop the lec tures and let things take their course." Japanese Superstition. If a guest leaves a Japaneso hotel without paying his bill a broom 1b dressed up, his name 1b attached to it, and It is inverted as a sign of disre spect, W. L.

"Have you subscribed for the Hag yet?" Of course you have heard those words within the past few days and at tho same time you plunked down your dollar to make tho Rag tho best ever. But let mo tell you about a fow of tho funny characters who are will ing to show their school spirit in most anything but honest coin; who will get out and yell at a football game? which ruins a perfectly good voice and who will break a leg to attend a tango party; but who can't conceive of tho Rag us a University product or as a true representative of bcIioo! sen timent and opinions. For a study In human nature let mo recommend you to try to sell subscrip tions. Take the vantage point of a tablo placed where a constant stream of students go by to register. Of course they spot the graft long before their portion of the lino nears the table. They bristle up, gaze at you out of tho corner of their eyes, pull their hats down and get prepared for tho springing step which takes them out of your reach. With a smllo of sympathy tho petitioners allow them to escape to "mooch" thj Rag off someone else. Then there are those who spend a sweet half hour in explaining how their room-mate is a subscriber and who pass by with a sigh of rollef at their story well told. Then thoso who look at you stonily and lie furiously, knowing that you know the truth. Then to relieve the heart-breaking uncertainty, comes the loyal soul who bustles up to fork over his dollar, and smiles while he does it. Th6re was a touch of humor In what the Bohemian said to the Inquiry of the Rag solicitor. "Have I a Rag?" he brok out, "I have lots of them at home," and ho hurried onv wondering at the atrange ne'as of American customs, BIG SALE" $9 ,65 $5 .65 now buys any $18, $16.50 and $15 Suitor Overcoat now buys any $12.50 and $10 Suit or Overcoat SPECIAL READING BOOK8 PROVIDED BY LIBRARY (Continued from Pago Ono) entirely apart from doflnlto class as signments.
