The Student Council elections to
day will show to what extent the
students interest themselves In their
self-government system. The student
council Is important enough to war
rant the attention of every student.
It supervises all school elections, an
activity second in importance to
none. Another of its more important
activtities is its regulation of the
campus drives, a regulation that has
long been needed.
If the Council is to succeed in its
work, it must be a representative or
ganization. The polling of a handful
of scattered votes will be a handicap
to the new Council because it will
mean that it represents a minority,
not a majority of the students. Un
fortunately voting at an election,
unless there is some clearly defined
issue involved, is regarded by most
students as a duty and not as a
privilege. Also, perhaps unfortun
ately, it is a duty in which no ele
ment of compulsion exists. No credit
hours are given for voting. The re
sult is that a large number of stu
dents do not take the trouble nor
the time to go to the polls.
This attitude toward public affairs
in school life is unfortunate because
it eft en results it. i corresponding
attitude in life alter graduation. The
student who does not care to vote for
his Council representative will, very
probably, not care to vote for his
representative in the legislature. He
goes to join the already-to-large army
of non-voters and of moron voters,
the type who are the godsend of the
political spell-binder, and the "one
hundred per cent. American candi
date who wears no man's collar."
The school is the right place to ac
quire the proper conception of po
litical and civic obligations. Students
who forget or neglect to go to the
pollis today are shirking their re
sponsibilities. Voting in today's
election is not an arduous task, but
it is an obligation which every think
ing Nebraskan should assume.
The goat is one of the most in
quisitive of animals. His curiosity
will lead him to almost unthinkable
lengths. For instance it is curi
osity that leads the goat to sam
ple the wrapping paper on tin cans,
in order to discover whether or not
the green variety of paper is super
ior in its edible qualities, to the blue.
Other equally impressive examples
might be cited. The curiosity of the
goat distinguishes him from the
sheep. The goat thinks for himself,
his curiosity leads him to develop
ideas of his own. The sheep has no
sense of curiosity and no Ideas of
his own. The sheep will be driven
docilely, the goat may turn, baa
twice, and start the other way. In
such circumstances the bystander
should remove himself from the path
of the goat
Too many students are intellectual
sheep. They stifle their curiosity. A
professor asserts an idea, the writer
of a book asserts an idea, and the
students accept it as a fact, without
allowing their curiosity to lead them
to investigate It. They never develop
the propensity of original thought.
As a result they become storehouses
of secondhand Ideas, Ideas -which
they have never investigated, aud
Ideas "which may or may not be
sound. Original thought It not a
painful affliction. It is a faculty
which If exercised might eliminate
many evils In political life. The
mission of a University should be to
do away with canned thought as
much ,s possible and to replace It
with ttought that Is free and original.

Now Biggs Gets to Class
On. Time!
AN exciting tale of adventure might be written about
the hunting expeditions Biggs used to make after
the elusive cap of his old tube of shaving cream. For
months Biggs was late to class because he spent valuable
minutes scouring the corners of the bathroom for a cap
that persisted in getting lost.
But those troubles are over. For Biggs has started
.using Williams' Shaving Cream, which comes in a tube
with a hinged cap that can't get lost. You see pictured
here this cap which saves his- time and patience and
which will do the same for you.
The convenience of the Hinged Cap would alone
be ample reason for your
using Williams'. But when
you consider that in addition
Williamss good for your
skin, and is the most remark
able beard softener known,
then it docs seem that you
would be missing a good deal
in getting along without it.
Buy a tube and see if it isn't
