WELCOME!
With apologies to Daniel Webster
and Lafayette, we stand today wiU
outstretched arms and say, "Wel
come; welcome; thrice welcome to
our university, high school basket
eers!" We are mighty glad you are nere
and we want you to have the best
time possible during your visit,
Some of you have been here before
pnd others are total strangers. But
we extend the same greetings ard
god wishes to all of you.
The University is yours during the
next three days. Its doors arc wide
open to you and we want you to lear
THE DAILY NBBJJA8KAN
INDIVIDUAL COURAGE
Success comes not to the man who
follows the crowd, but to the one who
dares to go It alone. In any vocation,
profession or trade, one finds most
workers aping others; they depend
upon the multitude for support, tnd if
they were placed upon their own in
itiative, they would become panic
stricken and flee. This dependency
upon others is even more evident In
college and colleeo life. Few of ua
have sufficient courage to stand and
defend our convictions, ,but become
slaves to "the popular thing." Some
are afraid to tackle their studies
alone; they must have assistance. An
education means little to these people
for after their college career, when
they strike out for themselves, they
will find that they must do the task
themselves without aid. And then will
come the test of their individual
courage.
Men like Fulton, who sailed his
steamboat in spite of the ridicule hur
led at him; Shackelton, who found the
South Pole even if people said it
couldn't be done; the Wright Brohter,
who flew even if their idea of heav-ier-than-alr
machines was poo-pooed;
and the Puritans and the western
Pioneers allowed their success in
achieving what they set out to do, to
their individual courage. Their knowi.
edge how and their ambition wcuhl
nevor have brought them their ends
if they had lacked this courage to go
it alone.
Contemporary Opinion
tQ know it and to love it as wo know
and love it. Some day, we hope, you
will be enrolled here as a student;
so learn all you can about the Uni
versity now.
University students will be only
to glad to show you around the cam
pus and buildings and answer any in
quiries you may have. If you want to
know anything, don't be afraid to
ask.
Again we welcome you.
HAMFUL PUBLICITY
Amos Beehive Meadowgrass came
down to Lincoln for the basketbai1
tournament and stayed at the Gamma
Beta fraternity house, with the rest
of his team. The first night at din
ner he overheard a conversation
Which impresed him very much.
The substance of the whole tiling
seemed to him to be that univers
ity life consisted of four cardinal
activities, namely: bi'ing a fraternity
man; going to parties, shows, etc.;
finding "pipe" courses to register for;
and studying as little as possible.
This rather conflicted with (lie ideas
he had gained from the catalog sent
out by the Registrar, and was far difi
erent from college life as pictured
in te stories he had read in the "Am
erican Boy".
After lie went to bed that night he
kept turning 'fiis njewly dis-oered
information over in his mind. IL;
really wanted to come here next
year, but lie felt that if his parents
knew college life as he did, they
would not. send him here and he had
expected to get an education if he
came, but from the information he
coujd get from the boys he talked to,
tln.t wasn't what one camo u school
for.
Such events as this happen quite
frequently. We, who are In school,
realize that such remarks are purely
ior effect, but we like to talk thai,
way, nevertheless. It gives us such
p. blase air, and impresses the green
horns who listen to us. It certainly
does impress them, and it impresses
them so much that it hurts the scool
more tan we imagine.
In the first place it might be taken
so seriously that the prospective stu
dent felt that Nebraska wasn't tha
school for him after all. Or else, he
might go home and repeat it in the
presence of hi3 elders. . No wonder,
then, that such people, after hearing
this side of the question, should b
ject to a tax for additional univer-i
lty improvements. You would object
too, if you thought you were telng
taxed to build a social center, not an
more than we imagine.
So let's be careful about our talk
concerning Nebraska. The school
means a great deal to us and wo are
all anxious to see it proper. But
careless remarks, that are overheard
by the visitors this week, may do
harm that can be measured in thous
ands of dollars, at well as giving a
false Impression to anyone who lis
tens and does not understand.
NO NEED FOR PITY
The working student has been the
source of countless "heart interest"
stories for years past. Who has not
read about the terrible orld-t the
poorly fed and scantily dressed lad
has had to face to win his coveted
degree? How he wistfully watches
the children of the rich enjoyinf tiie
social whirl of college life?
One of these days a student who
has used his brain and his muscle as
a means to paying his way through
school is going to speak up and tell
the multitudes that its all wrong
that many tears have been shsd in
vain, and that the working student
may actually get more enjoyment out
of his college life than does his silver-
spooned brother.
lie need not elucidate on ideas or
principles to put this over. He may
actually cite specific instances where
he has had real, honest enjoyment
and pleasure out of his four years.
A little observation around the cah-
pus will show that the working stu
dents are well represented among the
active leadera. And a little more ob
servation will show clearly that the
student who is depending altogether
cr in part on his own personal effort?
tor his remaining in school is the one
who is usually up and doing, whethe-
ir. be on the campus or in a nociu!
organization.
lie appreciates what he has, and
enjoys it to the utmost. Trivial wor
ries cannot bother him because ho
is accustomed to dealing with bigge
things. He gains a philosophy of lii'e
that permits him to avoid petty ob
stacles and fits him for the actual
realities of the outside world. Ohio

Why do they always speak of Dame
Rumor? I'll bet two to one that Old
Man Rumor has the best lino.
While puffing the girl caught a
puff and struck it in her pocket.
If you see a half-fledged youngster
with a brilliantly colored sweater
bearing a strange letter, you may
know he is the star tossers of some
bodies old home town. Be it known
that this is the week of the High
School Basketball Tournament and Ne
braska is host to her younger brothers
and future freshmen.
When we see the girls in their new
Spring coats
Our minds are filled with larfs
We love iheir smiles and their new
Spring hats
nut, oh, those brilliant scarfs!
We wonder if the girls are cold
Conversing in halting lisps
As they stick their hands in their
pockets- deep
And crush those silken wisps.
And though we admit that poetry
Is not the name for this
We claim at least that Truth It is
This verse of the U. of N. Miss.

Ed. is a Flapper with wings.

Did you ever get caught in the
crowd that surges from Social Science
tc U. Hall? Then never do. If you
have some reason for hiding from
your frat. brothers and others who
hate you, remember that this is the
congregating place for all your friends,
enemies and near-enemies. In 18G2,
the statistics on the enrollment were
lost, so the number of people who
were in sight from that classic con
crete conversation-maker was used.
Later it was discovered that the num.
ber was too large several people had
gone back before the counting was
finished.
