Co-Ed Organizations A
Factor In Student Life
Ignorance as to what many of the
girls' organizations in the University
etand for, seems to be rather common
on the campus. The presidents of
pach of the organizations have given
out what their groups stand for and
what they are accomplishing this year.
UNIVERSITY GIRLS' CLUB
(By Louise Coe.)
Have you ever heard anyone say,
"The Girls' Club?" Yes, seems to me
I've heard of it somewhere or other
but what is it and what does it do?
"Such a query can be answered by
saying that the Girls club is an or
ganization of University girls, to
which any girl in school is eligible for
membership. The common cry now
adays ia efficiency and efficiency
through organization; the club serves

as a means to organize the girls in
such a way that their influence and
their standards may be a real factor
on the Nebraska campus.
The policies and activities of the
club are outlined by a representative
council of forty members. Their plans
are carried out by an executive board
of nine members and by the officers
of the organization: President, Louise
Coe; vice-president, Marian Kastle;
secretary, Jean Burroughs; treasurer,
Eleanor Btnnet. The club is assisted
by an advisory board of three faculty
women, Miss Alice Loomis, Mrs. T. F.
A. Williams, and Miss Margaret Mc
Phee. In order to produce a fellowship
among the University girls, and a
strong college spirit, a number of en
tertainments are given during the
year. On Saturday of the first week
of school a party was held in the Tem
ple to introduce the freshmen. On
November 4Ja football luncheon will
be given before the Iowa Aggies
game. A costume party will be held
on December 8, the night of the Corn
husker banquet. On Thursday after
noon of this week, Miss Graham has
consented to turn her tea over to the
club. A special invitation is extend
ed to the women of the faculty, and
it is hoped that they may become bet
ter .acquainted with the girls than they
are able to do in the classroom.
One of the necessary evils of any
organization is the need of dues. But
the fifty cents a year is not more than
half an "evil" at any rate, for twenty
five cents of each membership fee is
used to make up a loan fund. Any
girl unable to finish school because
of financial reasons may borrow a rea
sonable amount without interest.
An important work of the club is to
bring before the girls subjects of In
terest which are not brought to their
attention in any other way. Last
Tuesday morning a mass meeting was
held in the Armory for the purpose
of introducing the subject of health
supervision in the University. Talks
from the platform were followed by
a general discussion by the girls and
the adoption of a resolution Jo author
ize the appointment of a committee
to further the movement toward se
curing medical aid at Nebraska. The
Girls' club affords the only means for
securing an expression of the desires
and sentiments of the girls.
THE BLACK MASQUES
Black Masque Is the senior women's
organization of the University which
corresponds to the Innocents among
the men. Thirteen girls are chosen
for membership on Ivy Day of each

ler, .Marian Kastle, Doris Siroggin,
KHiel Stone, Bertha Drifttneier, Edna

ence Wirt.
The pin pose of the organization is
to co-operate with Dean Graham, the
Innocents, Y. W. C. A. and Girls' club
in striving for the best in University
life. They strive to get acquainted
with all senior girls and are now work
ing on plans for Ivy Day.

But whatsoever else you may be, you
must not be useless, yon must not be

thousand years of thinking about right
and wrong, wise men have agreed
upon or successively by experience
discovered, it is that God dislikes idle
and cruel people more than any other;
that His first order is. "Work while
you have light," and His second, "Be
merciful while you have mercy."

ART GALLERY HOPES
TO GET EXHIBITION
OF BORGLUM SCULPTURE
An attempt is being made to secure
an exhibition by Messrs. Solen and
Gutzen Borglum, two very noted
sculptors. The art department is
rather proud of owning' "The Cow
boy" by Gutzen Borglum. There is a
good deal of local interest in these
men because of the fact that the Borg
lums were found and developed by Mr.
Lininger, the founder and late owner
of the Lininger art gallery of Omaha.
They have done very important
work and are among the best sculptors
America has produced. It is planned
to have the exhibition in December.
The second football team of the Ar
kansas Aggies has a woman coach.
She is the wife of Coach Brannon of
that school. Exchange.
