THE CORNHUSKER
Today you will be asked to sub
scribe for the Cornhusker, the Nebras
ka annual. Just what the book will
be this year, you will be told in an
other part of this paper. It might
be said here that we have never been
given a book which was not worth
the money, and this year will be no
exception to the rule.
Your duty on this proposition is not
only one to the book, but to your
self. The Cornhusker is the. embodi
ment of the year's events. It is the
record of the life of the student com
munity for an important part of its
existence. It is a great addition to
the traditions of a great school.
Twenty years from now if you don't
subscribe, you will be willing to give
many times the purchase price of the
book for a copy of it. It alone will
be able to recall to your mind the
sense images o fthe most enjoyable
period of your life. The few dollars
you will pay for it will not be of
consequence then, but the memories
of your college course will be price
less. "Preserve the present for the fu
ture." THE OMAHA MEDICS
That the University of Nebraska
Medical School at Omaha is boosting
for greater things for Nebraska is in
dicated by a copy of "The Rules" re
ceived today at this office. The issue
Is the "Cornhusker Number," and on
the front page is the greeting, "Oma
ha to Lincoln, 'What Is Sixty Miles
Between Friends?'"
We must not forget that the Omaha
branch is still a part of us, and an
Important part. The people up there
deserve proper mention from every
possible source. It is to be hoped that
the Cornhusker gives them the recog
nition they suggest as their due.
SINGLE TAX OUT TOMORROW
Last week. The Nebraskan prom
ised to submit the final plan on the
Single Tax in today's issue. At that
time we overlooked the fact that this
issue was to be devoted to the Corn
husker. This necessitates postponing
until tomorrow the report. Watch
for it.

REED WINS PRIZE
OF CORNHUSKER
(Continued from page 1)
Reading and owning one will always
inspire in the freshman more loyalty
and pride for his school.
It will be a much prized addition
to the freshman's growing library.
You will find the picture of your
best girl the one you met at the
mixer.
The Cornhusker will serve the
freshman as an all around directory.
Every little while we hear some one
say: "I don't know, but we can look
him up in the Cornhusker."
The fellow who has 6pirlt enough
to buy a Cornhusker prefers to tear,
crease or dirty the pages of his book
himself. Outside help is not appre
ciated. The Cornhusker in the home will
put the family album out of business
as a means for sister to entertain her
youthful swain.
Before completing your university
course, you will undoubtedly desire a
complete set representing each school
year and it will be practically impos
sible to buy them later; therefore,
"Do It Now."

STATE SHOULD OPERATE
MOVIES, SAYS McKEEVER
Lawrence, Kan., Feb. 23. That the
state of Kansas should own and con
trol the movies and that by so doing
a million dollars annually could be
turned into the school funds, was the
substance of a plan advanced by Prof.
W. A. McKeever, head of the depart
ment of Child Welfare, last night at
a joint assembly of the Y. M. and
Y. W. In -Myers' hall.
"The state of Kansas should take
ever the motion picture business
just asit has the publication of
text books," said Professor McKeever.
The motion pictures today are oit
greatest educational force.'and yet it
is in the hands of commercialists, and
not in the hands of educators, wtere
it belongs.
"A state board rof educators who
ha I full control and management of
motion pictures could, at present
prices, clear a million dollars annual
Iv for the school fund and thus raise
a much needed revenue.
. "Our state censorship has done a
most courageous and commendable
work, but it is placed by law at the
losing end of the game. Seventy
five per cent of the films 6hown in
Kansas today are cheap and meili
cere productions and about half of
them are depictions of some bat
crime or other form - of moral depravity."
