A NEW IDEA
Never before has a business manager of a university publica-
tion seen fit to allow the student customers to act as tneir own
salesmen. Manager Grimes, of the Students' Directory, placed a
number of the directories upon the campus yesterday and at noon
he found twenty-five gone with the exact change in their stead.
The experiment was interesting, to say the least.
Tomorrow is the day of the team "send-off" parade.
PLEASE HELP
The Nebraskan management has tried for some time to encour
age subscribers to the Nebraskan to call for their paper at the post
office. Too many students, some of them subscribers and most of
them not subscribers, call at the office of the circulation manager,
and, after looking through the paper, (un) intentionally walk out
with it. Of course, the Nebraskan will never have a real newspaper
office equipment if its readers are not all subscribers. Perhaps we
would do well to urge a single tax.
The "Pulse" says: "Your school paper is made possible by its
advertisers." It is timely to add that a few subscriptions, to which
the school papers are entitled, would also help.
BE THERE
Just because our football team has been so successful thus far
into the football season is no reason why the students of the univer
sity should not continue to inspire the warriors with fighting vim.
Let us not feel that the men on the team will be able to do every
thing themselves they need our support and our support is a loyal
"send-off." Be on hand at the east end of Memorial hall early
tomorrow afternoon.
EXCHANGES
Paddling is not the only method of
punishment ILat is need by upper
classmen to enforce the wearing of
the Freshman cap. At the Iowa Agri
cultural college the offending Fresh
man is put through a process called
stresbing. A number of upper-classmen
seize him by the feet and bands
and throw him into the air, preventing
bim from striking the ground by pull
ing in the four directions.
At the Colorado Agricultural College
there is a body of water on the campus
called the Lily Pond. The first year
men that fail to appear on the campus
R-ith the little green cap are baptized
in the Lily Fond by the ever watchful
Sophomores.

University Daily Kansan.
Series of articles -written by foreign
students dealing with their home coun
tries is to be a new feature in the
columns of the Daily beginning with
this issue. The foreign students in
the University have been asjted to
write these articles, which appear in
a series of ten. The writers have
been given unlimited freedom in dis
cussing an3thing concerning their
native country which will be of in
terest to the student reader of the
Daily. One article will appear in the
Daily each day until that series is com
pleted and then another will be begun.
In every case the author has been
born in the country f which be is
writing and is well informed of the
local conditions. The articles deal
with a great variety of subjects and
the personal view of the writer has
been permitted to creep in, lending
more than the usual interest Minne

ttv in a verv snecial way. To the
eitent that the fraternity man (or
woman) resoonds to the demands
made upon him as a member of Unl
yersity society, to the extent is he
being true to his fraternity and him
self. Fraternity life has many beau
tiful things In connection with it,
the friendships, the associations and
all that goes to increase man's hap
piness through his intimate contact
with man. These are its privileges,
But at the beginning, the pledge
should know that the fraternity is
not the most essential thing In a col
lege life; it is a delightful incidental,
but at the same time it is incidental.
The thing we are here for is educa
tion in its widest sense. The prob
lem is to keep the fraternity activ
ity within its proper sphere. Give it
that part of your time and energy
which it' has a right to expect of you.
Keep the fraternity within its own
chapter house; do not carry it around
the campus with you. Remember
that your University comes first in all
things. Give yourself no added glory
because you have been one of the
chosen; you have yet to prove your
self in every way. Lead the broadest
fraternal life that you possibly can.
And last and most important of alL
do not forget that the one best fra
ternity after all is that comradeship
and brotherhood which is every man's
debt to his fellow here on earth. Ex.
