MEMORIES.
Memories are the sweet reminders
that save the past from prowinp
empty andmeanlngless except for the
material things that remain as maim
ments. Symbolic monuments aro
crammed with memories, and are sug
gestive of sweet thoughts that fade,
but never die.
Time and the course of life move
swiftly. On the hls of time comes
change. Each year a flower blooms,
the same, yet not the same. Its blos
som withers wheu summer is done
to give place the next year to an
other bud. Its fragrance and its
beauty return, but the flower is new
and not quite the same as the my
riads that have bloomed before it.
Like the flower, the leaves of our
lives are filled with the swift train or
ceaseless change. As the leae grow
numerous it is inevitable that the
clarity of their continuity grow dim
unless there are reminders that for
bid forget fulness. One of the sad
things of growing old is the fading
of the happy past into the oblivion of
years; one of its compensations is its
permanence and indestructibility
when preserved as it is possible to
preserve it.
Youth is the prime of life. Like
opportunity it comes but once and re
turns no more. In youth is the time
when the joys of life are gathered
in most abundant profusion, and un
kind fate has not yet darkened life's
horizon.
Ah, youth is the time to remember.
That leaf in life is the one to pre
serve in order that when time and
age and distance have grown be
tween,, one may ocasionally drown
grim realities in luxuriant dreams of
the past, and wade In sweet remin
iscences of the glorious days that
were only too short.
"Friend o' mine of long a?o.
I would reach across the years
To the days we used to know.
To the laughter and the tears:
Fain would find the songs we knew
Brave old songs, they were in truth!
Strains that cheered for me and yon
All the golden paths of youth.
The Daily Nebraskan accoiding to
custom will suspend publication dur
ing; the week of examinations This
Is the last issue for this semstr-r.
When the Daily NVbraskan next an
pears it will be published by the sec
ond semester staff selected by th
Publieaiion Board.
The Daily Nebraskan has complet
ed a successful semester. This has
been due in a large measure to the
way In which those connected with
the University, faculty, students, and
administrative forces, have co-operated
with the staff members. MateriaJ
aid has been given both in securing
news and in constructive criticism
and suggestions.
A comparatively small editorial and
reportial staff Is directly responsible
for the actual publication. Tbey must
rely on the help of those connected
with the University to a large extent.
Every student 1 welcome to express
his views through the columns of the
University daily, to bring in stories
for publication and to offer snepes
tlons to those in charge. Several
times this semester the suggestion of
one whose only Interest In the paper
Is in the fact that It In the official
publication of bis University has re
suited in the improvement of some
feature of the paper.
Nebraska does not have an honor
system. An attempt to introduce su h
a system several years resulted in its
rejection by a popular vote of the
student body. Some felt that Nebras
ka was not ready for an honor system.
Others considered that Nebraska docs
not need an honor system. Certainly
there will be no need for one if the
students adhere to the universal hon
or code. If b coming semested ex
aminations every student observes
the standards of honor which are ap
plied In all branches of living; as well
as in studies, an honor system here
will be unnecessary.
Many time notable achievements
pass unrecognized by the majority of
tho people because they are unknown
to them. A part at least of this ma
jority who have failed to give the
College of Agriculture of the Untvor
sity of Nebraska credit for the things
which it is accomplishing will now
acknowledge that its achievements
are varied and of great value to the
state because the achievements have
been definitely fisted in tangible
form. "One Hundred Worhwhile Ac
complishments" of the College of Ag
riculture are told of in a recent bul
letin published by tho College. Py
acquainting the public with the worV
of the College and the results
achieved it will serve as an excellent
advertising medium.
It is an odd complex whicv. I akos
a student work with all his effort to
do gcod work in a course and t!u-r
when he receives a good grade tc
depreciate it in his speech cr his man
ner or to try to keep the general
public from knowing of his high rec
ord. Yet we often see the good stu
dent who does not appear proud ol
his success in scholarship. Perhape
it is really a fact that he is not proud
of his success, perhaps he is fearfu'
that his fellow students will think
he is a grind because he does make
good grades, or perhaps he is afraid
that he will not always maintain the
high standard and he will not receive
the Phi Beta Kappa which his friends
will expect. In many cases indica
tions are that as students we do not
value scholarship. Folia of student
opinion in some schools has Indicat
ed that a leter is preferred to a r.
B. K. key as an award to take
one from college.

Fig Industry
In California
Growing Rapidly
Durlg the last few years the fig
has boen coming to the front In the
galaxy of California's co-operatively
marketed fruits. Four-fifths of the
figs grown in tho United States are
grown in California, and four-fifths
of California's output comes from
the San Joaquin Yalley. A particu
larly rapid development has been
made in Merced county, notably in
tho Planada district, famous as the
location of the 4,000 acre orchard of
the California Packing corporation,
the largest peach and apricot orchard
in the world.
Highest among the fruits in nutri
tive value, the future of the fig Is
secure, horticulturists believe, and
the extension of the fig acreage will
be rapid in sections of proved adap
tability. California's raisin grap.
acreage is approaching the half-mli
lion mark; the acreage of figs is not
great enough to bo reported inde
pendently by the census.
John C. Moore, of Fresno, recog
nisiod authority as a land appraiser
for banks, has declared that, in his
judgment, the fig, although a com
paratively new industry, has the
greatest future of any fruit grown In
California The Lincoln Star.

Great Increase In
Number Automobiles
Sold During 1922
The year K2 ended with 12.3".7.37fi
automobiles and motor trucks on the
roads of the United States a gain of
1.S51.716 or 17.6 per cent over r gis
tration figures for 1921. said a re
port made public last night by auto
motive industries. The figures mean
a car of some sort for every S-7 per

New York was the first state tt
pass the l.OOO.OOt) mark. It. led with
1.000.732 and also had the largest
numerical gain over the previous
year with l'is.TOl. The percentage gain
over 1921 was the largest in the Dis
trict of Columbia and in the state of
Washington, the increases being 3S.4
per cent and 31.1 per cent respective

states from otor taxes totalled more

address before the farmers euuea

grain growers organization "is not
dead as many believe, it is miglny

Mr. Gustafson suggested that th
national cooperative company mock

The blanket athletic fee, admitting
the student body to all contests is re
ceiving attention in many conference
schools, it was indicatexl in letters
from seven institutions to local inves
tigators. Michigan University now
has the blanket fee plan in operation.
Ohio State and Minnesota athletic
officials favor the plan, and other
schools manag'e athletic attention like
Indiana now does.
"We advise strongly the g-eneral
blanket plan," wrote F. W. Luchrinjr,
director of Minnesota athletics.
"Michigan is the only school in the
conference which has an athletic fee
attached to the university fee, but
v.e have considered the matter here
at Ohio State Univers.'ty," said I- W.
St. John, Ohio State athletic director.
"I believe that finally we shall adopt
a compulsory athletic fee which will
provide a ticket for every student."
Rather than seeking a method of
increasing attendance at games, as
proponents of the blanket fee believe
the new plan would do, Wisconsin ha
found it necessary to turn many away
from games and to limit attendance
by cutting out the sea.on book, accord
ing to the letter of T. E. Jones, Wis
consin athletic director. The uni
versities of Illinois, Chicago, and Pur
due use the voluntary coupon book
which is employed here.
"The policy of adding a student ath
letic fee has been adopted in the Evan
ston departments of Northwestern
University, but other iichools of the
university are too far removed for
the plan to operate," Georg S. Dal
goty, Northwestern alumni secretary,
