U. OFU ( SO GAY Nevada ' s Hymn Uj In a day that will be by and bye We ' ll often dream of a bygone day And sing again that old sweet song Of U. of N. so gay. When college days are gone and -past And wide and far our lots are cast Then mem ' rtes sweet of days of yore We ' ll keep until the last. So here ' s to the friendship That binds us in one And the fair hours of youth yet undone. Come drink to the health Of old jolly N. U. And the banner of the silver and the blue. So here ' s to Nevada So staunch and so strong May prosperity stay ivith her long. Come drink to the health Of old jolly N. U. Where all honor and emin ence belong. % Si This pnge is affectionately dedicated to .■•- Lester R. Merrill, 01, author of the hypin

THE COLLEGIATE DEMOCRAT ( ( ' E M O C R A C Y is something deeper than I m ' ' ' ' t) ' ; ' t is responsihility. The four cam- pus years do much and well if they help attune each student ' s life to this key; they do little and ill except there be such attuning. Craftsmanship, scholarship, even spirit-mastery, worthy things in themselves, are superficial, pretentious, dangerous or injurious to one who uses them as means merely to get for himself more goods, better placement, higher prestige. All paths of selfish gain or glory lead ultimately to discontent, pessimism, emptiness, despair. The collegiate four years are an incomparable oppor- tunity to every student whom they train to do useful work, in whom they beget eagerness to know more and more about man and the universe, in whom they develop determination to grow yearly as an independent thinker, whom they prepare increasingly to appreciate and to create beauty, both in the outer and in the inner world, provided only that these same four collegiate years lead that student to dedicate to his day and generation all he is or may become as doer, knower, thinker, appreciator and creator. The paths of unselfish, trained service lead surely to satisfaction, optimism, eagerness, joy. He who would save his soul must lose it. He who would deserve leadership must habitually serve. He who would become the real democrat whom Nevada, America, the world so needs today, must attune not to liberty, but to responsibility, not to what he can get, but to what he can give.
