STORY HARDING
For This Issue
THE BOY SCOUT TRAINING SCHOOL
The training school for scout-masters which opens tonight on
our campus, is an important step in the growth of community life.
The purpose is
"To train men as scout masters.
"To give leaders now enrolled a better knowledge of scouting.
"To teach all this by the method of acual process."
This service is similar to that of the men who served their
country in the battle-ranks, except that it deals with reconstruction
work. The scout leaders advise and direct the young boys who will
soon be the world leaders the men who must carry our plans for
rebuilding social and economic foundations. The scout leader of to
day has the opportunity to mould thise boys' minds and to make
lasting impressions of right and sound judgment.
To bring to the reading public in the most striking manner pos
sible the practical value of this movement to all people, and to show
what a valuable asset to the United States it is by the democratic,
patriotic spirit the boys have, we print an article from the Boys Life
on their aim.
"It is your duty as a true and loyal scout to be ever at the
service of your country, always doing everything you possibly can,
without being asked, to strengthen the hand of the government," says
Lieut. Belvin W. Maynard in the January issue of Boys' Life. "You
Fbould not allow shallow-brained, weak-minded, thoughtless, unpatri
otic people to say ugly things about our government and our country
without expressing your contempt.
"Let us not be so unthoughtful ourselves as to say mean things
about our country, but let us realize that our country is not some
inconceivable idea, some visionary object, or some incomprehensible
state of existence, but is a simple and plain reality, easy to conceive,
made up of such homes as you represent, and to bring disgrace upon
our country is to bring disgrace upon these homes so dear to all of
us. No scout can be loyal to his family without being loyal to his
country, and in turn, loyalty to country is loyalty to home."
SUSCRIBE
Nebraska spirit is not 'oming to the fro.i . jf'irn from the lack
ot interest which the students are showing in the subscription cam
paign. They evidently do not care whether or not the Nebraskan
continues its daily publication. In spite of the fact that fifty girls
have been canvassing the campus this week, there are only 280 names
on the subscribers' list. Last Hemester that list contained 1200 names.
The Nebraskan cannot continue this semester unless conditions
change almost immediately. We feel that since we are working to
put out the best possible paper for your benefit, you the study body,
at: the sece.id party in our newspaper contract, should give us your
f nanclal support and moral encouragement. The cost of editing the
Nebraskan is almost double that of previous years, but we have
economized in every way possible and so raised the price only
twenty-five cents.
This semester, in order to exist as the connecting link between
campus life and the students and faculty, we must have your support.
The campaign will be continued this week as an additional oppor
tunity for the student's to show their loyalty and Nebraska spirit.
The sororities and fraternities are especially urged to come up to
the 100 mark to encourage the university as a whole.
"DON'T BE A SPONGE" and get your dally news by reading
over someone's shoulder.

The second semester, which is an
aftermath of -the first semester, is
I he rest cure and tonic prescribed lor
I he next eighteen weeks by the pioper
authorities for the overworked stud
ent, especially freshmen. We say rest
cure and tonic advisedly, due to the
fact that after spending a semester In
school, the average (reshman selects
his course entirely different than he
did during the first period, and due to
the fact that it is now made up mostly
of "pipe" courses, the student 1b per
mitted to rest and build up until next
June. It is also noted for the fact
that a'.l dates during this semester are
known as formal calls. Big Ben no
longer causes any alarm to the stud
ents, due to a desire of the students
not to repeat the eight o'clock which
was so prevalent in the first sched
ule.
The Fogg horn has sounded for the
debaters.
It ha been suggested that the uni
versity students who are going to
build areoplanes are musicians, due,
perhaps, to their desire to conquei
the air.
It has probably occurred to you that
the picture "Wanted a Husband",
shown at a local theatre this week is
a particular timely subject during this,
the greatest of all year, leap year.
