Entered at tho postofllco at Lincoln,
Nebraska, as second-class mall matter
under the act of Congress of March 3,
1879.
More significant to University stu
dents than the fact that tho thrift
stamps now on sale at every postofllce
offer a chance to give their country
immediate financial assistance is that
they are expected to inculcate Into the
character of Americans a trait which
is vitally more Important in the years
to come than tho five dollars or the
one hundred dollars that the govern
ment will derive from the stamp sale
the thrift habit.
The "baby bonds" are devised, more
than anything else, to take the place
of the quarter or tho live-dollar bill
that otherwise would be turned into
channels where it would bring little
value to the individual and less assist
ance to the country. If America is to
win the war, then America must learn
to save. She must turn the nickels
and dimes and quarters away from the
avenues of extravagance she must
"paste the, kaiser" by pasting thrift
stamps in her savings books.
To students, who on the average,
live a rather free itnd easy-going life,
this program should be welcome. We
know that it is clearly our duty to
train our minds, our bodies, and our
habits in such a way that In our ac
tion we may best serve America. In
no small way can we do more than by
doing this double service of lending
financial assistance and cultivating
the saving habit.
ISSUE NEBRASKA REPORT
OF FODR-MINDTE MEN
"Shah-man M. M. Fogg's Re
view Sent to Organization
.in All States
A report to tho government by
Prof. M. M. Fork, head of the no
braska Four-Minute Men, explaining
his methods of organizing the state
and of carrying on the work has
been issuod by the committee on
public information as a special bul
letin to the Four-Minuto Men of the
country, of whom there are about
16,000.
"Wo reprint below an excellent
report received from State Chairman
Fogg of Nebraska," says Director
Wni, McCormick Blair of the divi
sion of Four-Minute Men in the in
troduction to the bulletin which is
entitled "A Good Report."
"By painstaking and conscientious
work he has built up one of the
strongest Four-Minute Men organiza
tions in the counfry."
Professor Fogg's report gives
among other things his procedure in
selecting local chairmen who at the
date of the report (Nov. 24), num
bered 122 when there were 9J4 gov
ernment war speakers to theater
audiences, covering 205 theaters;
cites tho form of the Lincoln or
ganization as an example; and ex
plains the basis of selecting these
official speakers-
To the Boys
If students want a student yearbook
now is the time for them to say so.
Either this noon or tomorrow the
publication board will meet to decide
what form the 1918 Cornhusker shall
take. A plan io make the annual an
index of University soldiers has been
proposed, but so much sentiment from
the students who would be expected to
buy it has been expressed that the
board will be called together to con
sider tho objections.
As the matter stands today, the fac
ulty members of the board must know
that Nebraskans do not want the book
as it is planned. But they should be
told definitely, concretely, what stu
dents do want. This is not difficult.
Nebraskans want a representative
student yearbook one devoted in part
at least to setting forth the present
college year. They do not expect, nor
do they desire the bulky, extravagant,
unorganized book of former years
such a product would be disgraceful
at this time. But they want to find in
their annual a history of the college
year, its military history Included, and
since its military history has been by
far the most Important sido of its in
terests, they want tho military part
emphasized. But they most certainly
do not want a "who's who in the serv
ice" parading by itself under the guise
of a Cornhusker.
Surely the situation is clearly cut
enough. No one, students or faculty
members, wish to publish an extrava
gant, meaningless scrapbook. But
they do want a concise, interesting
review of Nebraska University during
this eventful year, and they want in
cluded in that, as a feature of it, an
honor roll of Nebraska soldiers.
You who treasure this year at Ne
braska as you have treasured no other,
you who have an Inkling of what the
prospect is of ever publishing another
Cornhusker, you who know "what you
want in the book you buy get busy
at once and. express your opinion tell
your class representative on the pub
lication board this morning what you
think the Cornhusker should contain
what can well bo eliminated, but
what must unequivocably remain. Re
member that today the Cornhusker is
being built. See that it is built right.
