ARBOR DAY PROCLAMATION
The season acain admonishes us
. that the day set apart as Arbor day is
near at hand. This day has come to
be "recognized by many of the states
as a good time to plant trees, shrubs
and thus not only to gratify our own
tastes for that which is beautiful but
realizing we are contributing to the
"welfare of those who come after us.
The trees that so gracefully shelter
us from the heat of summer were
planted by hands long since vanished
Ve should he anxious to do that in
this generation that will bless those of
the future.
Therefore, in keeping with the cus
toms of the past years, I as Governor
of the State of Nebraska, set apart
Thursday, the 22d day of April, 1915.
Arbor day, and urgently request that
at least a part of this day be set aside
by all the public schools and public
institutions of the state for the pur
pose of planting and cultivating trees
and shrubs, thus developing in our
selves a sense of the love of nature
and all that is good and beautiful.
I would also urge upon all the peo
ple to join in making our state more
pleasant to look upon by the planting
of trees and thus adding to the beauty
of the landscape.
Given under my hand and the great
seal of the state, this ,3 Gth day of April,
1915. JOHN H. MORE1IEAD.
Governor.
far in their education would have
learned to respect the property rights
of others. But during the last few
months many cases of stealing have
been reported and the authorities
have decided to use every means to
stop this practice. It may seem a
drastic measure to expel a student for
stealing a book, but so long as the
offenders are dealt with lightly there
is little chance that conditions will
improve.
It is necessary for the good of our
University society that an example be
made of the people who can be caught.
The students must be brought to real
ize that the consequences will be seri
ous for such deliberate wrongs. It is
as important that we learn the funda
mental principles of good citizenship
while in college that we learn mathe
matics or law or history. It is to be
hoped that the student body will co
operate with the school authorities
and lend every aid in stamping out
this pernicious practice.

EDITORIAL.
In accordance with the custom
started a few years ago the annual
Forest Club edition of the Daily Ne
braskan is offered today, Arbor Day.
Our organization is small compared
with the oth .rs which put out supple
ments such as this, but the whole club
was behiifd the "Rag" committee, mak
ing it truly a Forest Club edition.
Considerable emphasis has been
placed upon the Arbor Day feature be
cause tree planting is one branch of
forestry in which everyone is, or
should be, interested. The article on
the profession of forestry should an
swer in sufficient detail the question
so frequently asked, "What is the work
of a forester?"
