BRIEF BITS OF NEWS
A new mammoth tusk has just been
donated to the state museum by Mr.
Ivor's consoling assurance that the jj Farrens of the Western Brick
and Supply Co. The tusk was secured
by him mhile dredging for and at
Capitol Beach. This was mounted and
placed on exhibition last week
PLAIN WORDS FOR WILLIAM
The poor Kaiser is being very badly
treated these days br his own people.
In a recent speech at Essen he made
a desperate bid for popularity by com
ing out with an unequivocal declara
tion In favor of p.vnoting free and
equal suffrage in Prussia. This was
too much for bis democratic chancel
lor. Prince Maximilian, and according
to tbe Berlin Vorwarts, he saw to it
that the All-Highest was carefully
censored and all allusion to the suff
rage question removed." The German
censorship seems to be slightly anom
alous, for nowadays the socialist pa
pers seem to be saying Just what they
think, as. for example, the gr-ntle de
scription of the Kaiser given by tbe
Mnnchner Post, which runs:
"William II. has now ruled over
Germany for over thirty years, but the
soul of the German people, in good
and evil, is closed to him, who if. con
nected abroad with a thousand ties,
family and social, and even related by
blood to England, and the German soul
remains to him a book with seven
seals.
In the nations of the entente he
sees only enemies yellow with envy.
He Is convinced that the enemy is de
termined to crush and destroy us.
although Germany's greatest enemy
Lloyd George has spoken quite oth
erwise. All his senses appear to be
blind and dumb, even to the stirring
and critical conditions surrounding
him in Germany."
In the reicbstag the words are even
plainer. Here is part of a debate re
cently cabled over:
" 'The question can not longer be
evaded,, said Dr. Cohn. 'War 1th the
HohenzolJerns or peace without the
Hohenzollerns. World-revolution will
foiJow on world-imperialism and
world-imperiaiium, and we will over
come them. We extend our hand U
our friends beyond the frontier In this
struggle.'
'The speech was received with such
commotion, cries of 'Shame! and ap
plause, that the vice-president threat
ened to have the Chamber cleared.
"Another socialist. Otto Ruetle, was
called to order for declaring that the
emperor must abdicate. He retorted:
'A call to order won't save him from
tbe criminal court."
men now in training would be sent In
large numbers for tbe work of re
construction and that their chances
of crossing were better than if ro arm
istice had been signed, a large num
ber would probably have spent a sleep
less night. The enthusiasm with
which the soldiers attacked their work
at the close of the captain's address
indicates that America's record in the
reconstruction will be fully as brill
iant as her record in helping win the
war.
A two-hour vacation fs allowed this
morning for tbe monster macs meet
Jngs iu behalf of tbe United War work
campaign. The recess is given for the
purpose of enabling students and fac
ulty members to learn of the alms of
tbe campaign and everyone should
consider it his duty to his country and
the men wbo are fighting and p.e
paricg to remake Germany to be pres
ent. If the armistice has finally been
signed it may appear to some, at first

After five weeks of waiting. Corn
buskers are again to see their heroes
of the Scarlet and Cream in battle
upon Nebraska field. The Fort Oma
ha balloon school, with an airay of
all-star material from every corner of
the country, has accepted the Husker
bid and Saturday afternoon will give
us our second game of tbe season.
The Balloon School eleven, under
the direction of Coach Lieut. McKay.
former University of Pittsburg star,
has worked out some surprising plays,
which, in the hands of tbe veterans,
assure spectators a battle-royal from
the first blow of the whistle. Although
the Huskers are handicapped by a
steady run of the "Jinx" during the
entire season and tbe recent injury of
McMahon. Coach Kline has given his
assurance that Nebraska will be able
to take care of her end of the game.
Tomorrow gives Nebraska an op
portunity to even her percentage for
the season and loyal Cornhusker root
ers in the stands must give their sup
port that the opportunity will not be
losL The stands should be filled and
the rooting sections should stage a rcc
ord performance, Leather lungs will
be at a premium. Take advantage of
the practice sessions at the mass meet
ings this morning.
During the field season Professor ;
E. F. Schramm secured for the Mor-!
rill geological collections a remark- j
able series of fossil fish from the i
Green river shales at Fossil. Wjoming.
The shale at this region breaks into
slabs from a quarter to half an inch j
in thickness. It is almost white In
color and the fossil fish pressed upon
them are a dark chocolate. These are
the most remarkable fossil fish in the
world. One slab secured by Professor
Schramm contains 13 fish and a leaf
impression. The majority of the.e
fish are sua fish. They vary in size !
from three and four inches up to the
largest which is two feet in length.
Part of these have already been plac
ed on exhibition and the entire ret
will be mounted in a short time.

ilior Paioo
After a term of service extending
over four semesters, during which
time The Nebraskan has become a per
sistent hobby, it is with a feeling too
compltx for analysis that th-? editor
pulls the old machine before bim to
run off his last "bit" for the linotyper.
Work on The Nebraskan is by no
means performed for mercenary rea
sons as any of the staff would swear In
court. It is for the pleasure in doing
something for Nebraska s'udents,
Nebraska University and, in the past
year, for their country and the cause
of democracy for the satisfaction in
doing these things and not for money
that tbe editors will write 6tories dur
ing the day and read proof un'il after
midnight.
Tbe editor has found particular
pleasure this year In helping with
the paper at the time of the trans
formation of tbe University by gov
ernment supervision and at the time
when students depended so greatly
upon the paper for their official infor
mation. Whatever more of responsi
bility has been taken or whatever
more of work has been made neces
sary hy tbe confusion and disorganiza
tion, all has been done with a feeling
that tbe time of many other students
and officers was conserved.
As a parting word, the editor wishes
to express his appreciation of the priv
ilege given him by the publication
board to serve at tbe head of the
University newspaper and to for
mally thank those men and women of
the staff who, by giving their time and
energy, have made possible tbe con
tinuance of tbe paper under the pre-
ent abnormal conditions.
Last week the state museum recelv-1
ed from the American Museum of
Natural History in New York City a j
fine, complete skeleton of Moropjs. j
This was sent to the university with j
the compliments of Professor Henry i
F. Osborn. Dr. Matthew. Mr TIar-;
old J. Cook. This specimen, tocher
with a number of others, was recured j
three years ago on the Cook ranch i
at Agate, Nebraska, where the famous j
Agate springs fossil beds are located.
These animals stood between 10 and
12 feel in height, had the head and
neck of a horse, the heavy body of a
rhineoceros, and its feet had peculiar
claw-like hoofs. It is one of the most
anomalous animals found In Nebras
ka. This specimen is being articulated
and will be mounted as a plastic pan
el, north of the large turtle group,
at the entrance of the museum.

WORDS OF WISE MEN
The greatest homage we can pay to
truth Is to use iu Emerson.
Let a broken man cling to his m-ork.
If it saves nothing else It mill save
him. Beecber.
The great secret of success In life Is

The truest style of eloquence, secu

Things that never happen are often
as much realities to us in their effects
as those that are accomplished Dickens.
There is a broad distinction between
character and reputation, for one may
be destroyed by slander, while the
other can never be harmed save by its
possessor. Reputation Is In no man's
keeping. You and I cannot determine
hat other men shall think and say j
about us. We can only determine what
they ought to think of us and say '

Hnnouncement
H This notice is paid for by the First Congregational
Church not for profit but just to let University peo
ple know that they are more than welcome at its
services. Dr. John Andrew Holmes, who has made
a specialty of preaching to State University students
and professors during a period of ten years, has
charge of the service at 10:30 every Sunday morn
ing. At 12 two student classes, one for student
girls, led by Mrs. E. L. Hinman, one for both men
and women, led by Dr. Hinman. The Young
Men's class meets at 9:30, instead of 12.O0. The
subject for next Sunday's sermon is, "Joshua gives
orders to the Sun." f At 6 the Young Pecple'a
Society give a fellowship luncheon and at
7 its regular meeting is held, which is attended prin
cipally by students. Sometimes also there is an
evening service at 8, as occasion requires. Come
to everything. You will feel at home.
