The Daily Nebraskan recently sent out que'stionaires to between eighty and ninety schools of the country, seeking their experience with the Sin gle Tax and the Student Union. The manner in which the questions were answered has been of great assistance to us in our efforts to secure the adoption of these measures here.

When a seemingly bright, beautiful young man of twenty years, more or less, locks his keys in his desk and, aided by one lone fellow worker, has to spend two perfectly good hours of this gorgeous springtime unscrewiffg the desk top off to get them, the world becomes dark and gloomy, and he knows that "a fellow is always having hard luck, anyway." "Al" Bryson was the leading man in this one-act tragedy, and Virgil Haggart was "the ever present aid in time of trouble." It is rumored that "Al" has strung the keys on a pink baby ribbon and has draped them over the top of his desk as a reminder of the glories of the past.

Huntep superintend. versity had a tax of $5 from 1912 to. 1914. The plan ,was then abandoned. In referring to the fact that payment was not compulsory, the editor of j Student Life says, "This was one of the faults of the plan." We believe that these instances go to prove our prevails contention that the Single Tax will lose many of its good points if it is made voluntary. The reduction of the price of the var ious activities to make a club rate cannot be successful, for not enough will volunteer to make the club price attractive. But more than this, the Tax will not secure Interest in activities among those who would otherwise fee back ward, taking advantage of he educa tional opportunities in this line. The feature of the system that has won it many friends on the faculty is the fact that it will create this interest among those who believe that the classroom is their only field of actlv v -while obtaining an education. Even California, which reports in glowing Yont will give a book review of her doctor's thesis "Status and Value of Music in Education."
