town" they have social ambitions, per
haps, but because those with whom
they associate and who have known
them all their lives know that this
social climb would only be artificial, it
does not have a chance to develop.
When these finery-loving creatures
finally gather enough money together
lo enter college, they resolve that be
cause the other students will be ignor
ant of their true status, it is a ripe
opportunity to put on airs and to be
come the king of the college realm
Thus they begin their climbing, first
with little stories of their family's
alleged social status until these tales
become colored with supposed annual
trips to Cuba and the tropics.
These birds thrive for a time in our
suspicjous colony and then die a death
more horrible than the finest rose
when it withers in the late summer.
When the more sensible birds among
U3 inquire of others as to the "pea
cock" lineal descent and social status
we find that it is a minus quantity.
Thus, by a simple deduction, we drop
them from our list of interesting per
sons and dub them Knights of the
False Face.

LEST WE FORGET.
Even thought he lived more than a
century ago, even though his valor and
chivalry were topics of discussion in
the late eighteenth century, and even
though the intricacies of twenlieth
century life sometimes make us for
get about the past, still we cannot for
get the Father of our Country, George
W ashington, whose birthday we cele
brate today.
Let us try to emulate hi3 principles
of life; let us strive to overcome our
petty obstacles as he overcame the
forces of the King during the Revolu
tionary period. Although George
Washington's name is generally con
nected with the familiar hatchet epi
sode, it should mean more than that
to us. It should mean the name of a
great general one who laughed in the
face of moral and physical danger.
Washington has left his deeds em
blazoned on our own lives. We can

PRESERVE FOREVER NEBRASKA'S
TUNES.
By the purchase of Xebraka's first
real book of song today you will pre
serve those tunes that have become
classic to every Cornhusker. You
will invest in a lifetime of happ'.iefs
ard memories of your Mma Mater.
You will insure for future years a
tangible reminder of the songs of Xc-
j braska. This songbook is memorable
I because it is the successful attempt of
j a winter's hard work to collect to
' gether Cornhusker songs and songs of
other colleges. Its greatest merit is
in the fact that it has become a fin
ish product, through the untiring ef
forts of the University Songbook
Committee.
This is just a reminder to purchase
your volume today.

Student Opinion
UNIVERSAL DAY OF PRAYER.
The World's Student Christian Fed-
eiation, numbering a m':nbershi; of
200. Odd students and professors in 1
i
parts of the world, has designated j
Sunday. February 2 as the universal !
day of prayer for students. j
The ca!l this year has more than an
ordinary appeal. Our sympathetic!
have been touched and stirred by the
reports of the pitiable condition of our
fellow-students and teachers in East
ern Euro;ie and Western Asia. Men
in every walk of life who have given
deliverances on the present post-war
situation tell us that Christian broth
erhood is the only power that will heal
old sores and make the world one
again. Prayer for this special purpose
is the out-going of our best and most
unselfish selves.
Nebraska students and teachers are
Invited to lend their influence to this
worthy end. Nothing will do more to
restore America to her proper place
of spiritual leadership than a deep
and practical sympathy for Europe and
Asia on the part of our college and
nniverslty men and women. Contributed.
STUDENT OPINION.
To the Daily Nebraskan: The Uni
versity is just emerging from a big
semi-annual campaign the subscrip
tion drive for the Daily Nebraskan.
Anyone who solicited subscriptions
tan realize what an immense amount
of time was required. A few of the
more important drives this year have
been the two Daily Nebraskan sub
scription drives, the sale of University
Players tickets, the sale of football
tickets and the committee of Two
Hundred drive. If the total amount of
t.me sjient on these was recorded the
figure would be astounding.
The work of all these campaigns
f; !'.s largely upon the same students.
This is a great strain upon them and
r, ::iiot fail to lower th-edr scholarship.
V.'ith the p res c-nt system there is only
;,:ie al:ernative to abandon all school
. ( "ivities. No on'; would consent to
;!. i. Even those students wo do not
rare fur .sc'ieol aetiviiies would not
l'.j to school that had the reputation
of be ing d. ad.
But there is a solution to this prob-
!":!i the single tax. The Eingle tax,
i bv requiring each f tuflent to pay a
certain smalt amount fivard the sup
port of the more Important activities,
would abolish a number of these cam
paigns. Not only would this system
s;ive time but it would distribute the
expenses of school activities, which
are supported by less than a fourth
of the students at present. Since all
students are benefited by school ac
tivities, directly or indirectly, it is
only fair that all should belp support
them.
We want the single tax. Senior.
