Definite Support Secured.
Since the inauguration of plans
for a consumers' drive on the Ne
braska campus full fledged support
from the faculty, administration,
students and NRA officials of the
city seem definitely secured. The
drive will consist of securing- the
signature of the students on the
NRA consumers' pledge.
It is thought that by the middle
nf the week definite plans will
have been formed and a drive will
be under way. The idea of the plan
is not to urge students to "buy
now" but to encourage tbem to buy
from merchants who are co-operating
in the president's recovery
program,
Help NRA Men.
The general opinion o' university
and NflA officials is that mer
chants and business men who have
signei NRA agreements are mak
ing definite sacrifices in complying
with the requirements of those
who fly the blue eagle and that
their actions merit the support of
all consumers.

Campus Organization Starts
Finance and Membership
Drive Next Thursday.
ALDEN ISSUES INVITATION
New students and non-members
of the Y. W. C. A. are to be enter
tained at informal teas starting
Thursday, Oct. 5 and continuing
thru October. Plans are being
made bv members of the "Y" staff
to culminate this scries of after
noon events in a big finance and
membership campaign.
The first tea on Thursday from
4:30 to 5:30 is being given by the
vesper and vesper choir staff at
Ellen Smith hall. Elaine Fontein
and Marian Stamp, chairmen of
the respective staffs, are in charge
of arrangements. On Friday. Oct.
6, the second afternoon affair un
der the supervision of the social
staff aided by the program and
office staff will take place.
At this time, Miss Bcrnicc Mil
ler, secretary of the Y. W. C. A.,
and Jean Alden. president, wish to
extend a general invitation to all
students to become members of
this organization which is an inter
national society with groups in all
parts of the world. Students who
are not members and wish to be
come active in the organization
may take out membership by go
ing to the "Y" office in Ellen
Smith tall, filling out a member
ship card, and paying the required
dues.
Acquaintance letters were sent
out early this fall to all freshmen
women extending to them an invi
tation to make themselves at home
at the "Y." Many students have
taken advantage of this oppor
tunity to make new friends. Others
who have not yet formed the habit
of dropping in at the office are
urged to do so by Miss Bernice
Miller.
difficult reading material before
retiring."
Dr. Walton also recommends the
detective story for the tired busi
ness man. In fact he thinks they
are wholesome reading matter for
anyone except very small children.
In the case of the latter he be
lieves, the immature mind is apt to
become too engrossed in ths de
tails of the story and will be too
excited for sleep.
Tests by psychologists have
proved that murder mystery novels
lower blood pressure, cut the pulse
rate, and steady motor nerves.
The scientist, according to Dr.
Walton, will always recommend to
those who desire rest some light
reading material as a means of
relaxation. The break between the
day's work and fictitious events,
he says, is sufficient to cause com
plete withdrawal of the mind from
its troubles, including complete
rest.

AS 'HELLO DAY'
All Freshmen Will Receive
Hearty Greeting From
Upperclassmen.
Hello Day, a traditional custom
re-instituted on this campus two
years ago by Mortar Board, sen
ior women's honorary society, is
orXii ially recorded for Friday, Oct.
6. At this time, all freshm"n
wearing the scarlet and cream
caps or buttons, arc being greeted
lustily with a cheery "Hello" by
all faculty mcmoers and upper
classmen. The practice of having a "Hello''
day was popular on this campus
many years ago but died out be
cause organizations failed to sup
port the project. During the last
three years it has been hailed as
an excellent idea because it
creates a united Comhusker spirit
and is an effort on the part of
upperclH.s.smen to secure and pro
mote better feeling of cooperation
among all university students,"
declared .lane Boos, member of
Mortar Board. Innocents, mem
bers of A. W. S.. Big Sister board,
W. A. A., Tassels and Corn Cobs
have signified their intentions of
supporting the project this year
to the utmost.
"The wearing of these tradi
tional caps and buttons is a cus
tom which every freshman should
be proud to accept. Freshmen
women who have not yet obtained
their scarlet and cream reeogni
zation buttons may get them aftor

weeks of intensive training and
practice under the direction of
head yell king Ed Fisher. All ap

Various and Sundry Means of Earning
Livings Occur to University Students
Restaurant and Cafe Jobs
Are Most Popular Money
Earning Methods.
"Hashers," bus bovs, shoe sales

watch repairmen, in fact, almost
any business or profession has at
least one representative in the
lists of university students work
ing part time in" Lincoln.
Unusual are the tasks done by
the college boys, but conscientious
is their work, employers of labor
in the city relate.
One of the most unusual means
of earning a living ls the way fol
lowed by a junior in the college of
engineering. He terms himself the
"Campus Watchman" and pro
ceeds to vouch for his ability with
a record of six year's experience.
One boy earns his way thru
school on the proceeds of his fine
dairy project. Milk and first rate
cream are sold by him as well as
the cattle that produce the milk
and cream. A prize winner, too, in
the various competitions makes his
cattle at a premium when put on
the auction block. In the recent
state fair, his cattle carried off the
lion's share of the honors. He is a
freshman in the college of agricul
ture. Employers say that they can al
ways use good experienced shoe

The list of jobs filled by the
students at this university would
be far to long to compile or to
print, but among the most popular
means of earning a living arc
janitorial work, all kinds of sales
men, runners from delivery trucks
and "hashing."
One unusual position filled by
a college boy is the job of a car
pet layer in a downtown depar
ment store. In the same store, sev
eral men are employed as card
writers.
Just how many students are em
ployed this year is rather hard to
tell, as yet, since the lists have not
been compiled by the registrar's
office. J. D. Epp, employment di
rector in the dean of student af
fair's office, estimates that ap
proximately the same number are
working this year as last. Last
year, 25 percent of the women
were employed and 40 percent of
the men.
The employment bureau in the
dean's office has been very busy
this year. Mr. Epp relates. He said
