BOOST NEBRASKA.
The University of Nebraska is
great institution, one of the greatest
schools in the middlewest. It has high
scholastic standards, its athletic
teams are known from coast to coast,
leaders in different fields of learn
ing are numbered among its faculty,
and its graduates are making . names
for themselves and Nebraska in the
world at large.
Nebraska University, however, has
not been given proper recognition
for its high standing and achieve
ments by the people of the state.
A large share of the taxpayers of the
state .are not acquainted with the
University and what it is doing for
the young people of the state. They
know of the University largely by
hearsay, and while its great accom
plishments are often passed without
notice, the least fault or mistake by
the University is brought before
them.
Newspapers of the state are too
ready with criticism of the Univer
sity, and too stingy with praise. Take
the matter of athletics for instance.
When Nebraska is winning, all well
and good, but let Nebraska lose a
few contests. A concerted howl goes
up, and the University is assailed in
no uncertain terms.
Mucn of this mistaken and often
antagonistic attitude toward the
state school can be overcome by the
proper advertising and boosting for
the University. A constant publicity
campaign should be carried on to
give the people of the state a bet
ter understanding of the University.
This understanding would lead nat
urally to a greater apreciation and
respect for the institution.
Students can help a great deal in
overcoming prejudice and building
up esteem for the University. They
can do this in various ways.
First of all, they should be care
ful of their own conduct at all times,
remembering that people are judging
the University by their individual ac
tions. Again, they should become
better acquainted with the Univer
sity, and boost for the Cornhusker
school at every oportunity. They
should make an effort to learn more
about the school and its accomplish
ments, an endeavor which will de
velop their pride for Nebraska. Then
they should talk Nebraska to their
friends and relatives, to high school
students, and to everyone with whom
they come in contact.
An exposition of the Bok peace
plan on which a referendum vote f
the American people is being taken
through the newspapers, is published
in today's Nebraskan. This article,
which is written by Professor Fling
of our University, briefly discusses
the Bok plan in all its pnases. Pro
fessor Fling is a student of interna
tional politics and affairs, and is
widely recognized as an authoritiy
on the subject of foreign relations.
Nebraska University students should
understand the Bok plan and be able
to discuss and vote intelligently on
it. A careful reading of the article
by Professor Fling will give students
a clear understanding of this famous
subject.
Following several serious "accidents
because of heavy traffic across the
University campus, the Minneapolis
city council prohibited certain class
es of traffic from driving across the
campus. This news should remind
Nebraska that some more effective
regulation of traffic on Twelfth
street should be made. At present
cars pass up and down this street a
a high speed when students are cross
ing, and it is only by miraculous good
fortune that no serious accidents have
RAG CARPET
Gee! I wish I were an owl.
Why?
So I wouldn't have to worry about
getting up mornings.
Now is the time for all good sleds
to slide together.
My flivver has a rattle.
Well, it's a very young flivver.
The only notes some people take
in class is to note whether the pro
fessor notes that they are taking a
nap.
Even the janitors have their lit
tle pickups of the day.
He Your bark sounds like a grave
yard.
She Oh, no. It's just a little
coughin'.
A little examination now and then
occurred here. Students and others
who have occasion to drive along
Twelfth street are urged to drive
carefully. Enough students have
been the victims of auto accidents
this year without any additions thru
careless and fast driving on the cam
pus.
Certain University men still persist
in smoking around the campus doors
of the different buildings on the cam
pus, ine objections to this practice,
which has become a campus nuisance,
are numerous, and are apparent to
everyone, including the violators of
the ruling against this practice. With
practically no inconvience, the smok
ers can indulge at a reasonable dis
tance from the buildings, and every
one will be happier. Smoking away
from the campus doors requires al
most no sacrifice on the part of those
who smoke. The objections to the
prevailing custom, however, are many
and deep-seated. Those who must
smoke are urged to smoke away from
the buildings, thereby obeying the
University ruling and showing a more
courteous regard for their fellow stu
dents. Looking at random through col
lege papers one sees a number of
sports held at other schools in which
Nebraska does not participate. Inter
collegiate polo is held at Missouri and
other schools south of Nebraska.
Harvard, Columbia, and other col
leges have chess teams. Rowing is
featured at schools on both coasts.
Hockey is a fovorite sport of many
Universities and the Big Ten holds
an annual bowling tournament. Some
of these sports could not be held at
Nebraska because of the lack of cer
tain natural lines of athletic endea-
r which Nebraska University
would do well to take up. A little
more active interest and participa
tion in various sports, would go a long
way towards making a better student
body.
Colorado has adopted the point sys
tem in school activities. Under this
system, each activity counts so many
oints and students are allowed to win
just a certain number of points in
activities during their college course.
Under the situation existing at Ne
braska and other schools at the pres
ent, a small number of students often
monopolize activities to the detriment
of the activity, the individual himself
and the student body as a whole. Par
ticipation in activities should be limit
ed, and as many students as possible
should be given a chance to win hon
ors in activities.

Vigor!
Happiness!
The soundest physical condition must
lag and labor if the feet ache.
And the happiest mood must suc
cumb when the feet begin to hurt.
And so we wish every woman who
is "conscious of her feet" to try the
Truwauk Shoe a charming shoe so
supremely comfortable that it gives
a new sense of energy and strength
and a new joy in the daily work and
play.
The Truwauk Shoe rests and exer
cises the feet. It brings every muscle
into play instead of burdening a few
muscles. It is an experience and a
discovery for you to know the amaz
ing pleasure of this perfected principle
; f shoemaking.
