Entered at the postofflce at Lincoln, Nebraska, as second class
mall matter under the Act of Congress of March S, 1879.
It's easy to "slip up" on most anything, these days.
Since examination schedules are out, the people who have their
exams bunched up at the first part of the week are kicking because
they aren't strung out over the whole week.
Dr. George E. Howard has given his entire V.arary of from three
to four thousand volumes to the University of Nebraska! The collec
tion of historical and sociological material is one of the finest, and
the library Is valued at about seven thousand dollars. Such an addi
tion to the University library is Inestimable.
Dr. Howard was the first professor of political science and soci
ology at Nebraska and by his efforts and influence, the department of
which he is the head, has become one of the most important In the
University. The gift of the valuable collection of books Is only one
of the many gifts he has already made the University. The efficiency
of his department, and the high scholastic Ideals which he has de
manded by those under him has dona much to raise the standards of
the whole University.
The gift of the books is just one more act of the generous man
who has given so much for the love of his work.
It would appear that the Journal is becoming rather vehement in
its denouncement of the whole University in general. y To read its edi
torials, one would think that this is a bad, naughty place and that to
attend the institution is an irreparable step toward the brink 'of
destruction.
There are only seven more days until the students will be asked
to vote on the Single Tax. There are only three more editions of The
Daily Nebraskan in which to read the arguments both for and
against the Single Tax. Discuss it In your classrooms, at your homes,
on the campus, at your every opportunity. Whatever the results of
the voting are. they will probably be final for some time, at least.
We will be very glad to print all of the Forum letters that come
to the office. The discussion will not be limited to any one side.
The only requirement is that the author of the letter be known to
the editor.
Ten reasons for the Single Tax as given in The Daily Nebraskan,
March 3, 1916, are:
1. It will mean a greater athletic department.
2. It will mean greater things in debating.
3. The Daily Nebraskan will become a more representative
papr, and will be assured of the necessary financial support.
4. It will mean a more representative social life at Nebraska.
5. It will mean that the now neglected lesser activities will be
placed on a proper basis.
6. It means that all will pay for the benefits which all receive.
7. It will mean that the person who now neglects to take advant
age of his opportunities along the lines of school activities, will receive
their benefits.
8. It will mean that Nebraska activities will compare more
favorably with other institutions which now have the Single Tax.
9. No one will be unnecessarily inconvenienced, as those who
cannot pay will be excused.
10. It will permit a growth of student life and activities parallel
to the growth of the University.

. All the streets leading to the cam-
pus, left as slick as a field of glass
' by the sleet storm of Saturday night,
were thronged with men and co-eds
i long before time for classes. Girls
from sorority houses on or near "Fra
ternity Row" glided in crowds, or
w kh swerving escorts in ,a way that
made 8 o'clocks look like anything
but an inconvenience. The Alpha
J Phi's and Pi Phi's were both repre-
t spntArf hv hattjilinna rtf fikfltpm and
most of the sororities, it is said, had
their best representations at early
morning classes.
There were many students, however,
who saw the hour for classes 'slip by
while they skated about, marooned in
the outskirts of town, whither they
had been towed by automooiles bound
for parts unknown. Unless an in-going
car" could be hailed, they were
forced to face a long skate in and an
absent mark.

BEAUTY KIT HOLDS
NOTHING BUT SOAP
CHEMISTS DISCOVER
The woman scientist, working in
her laboratory, has discovered Alas!
that her sister of the world of Van
ity Fair has been duped, horribly
duped. The perfumes of Arabia and
the face cream endorsed by Cleopa
tra have turned out under chemical
analysis to be made of common-place
and in some cases, Injurious ingre
dients. My Beautiful Lady has all the
time been applying soap and glycer
ine to dimpled face from a lotion
bottle labeled with a captivating;
name.
Women students tn one of the class
es in chemistry conducted by an
eastern professor have made recent
tests of various face powders, com
plexion creams, skin whiteners,, de
odorants and depilatories. The results
of the analyses have brought Interest
ing results, the students say.
Some of the high-priced lotions, it
Is found, are composed of soap and
glycerin, with a bit of tint and per
fume added. An analysis of samples
of skin bleaches show contents of
arsenic or mercury, or both. Many
balms and creams and powders, ex
periments show, are harmless, but
they are also of very little merit
It has been found also that state
ments as to the materials used in the
preparation of the patent toilet arti
cles printed on the container are in
correct or misleading.
