THE BIG BONFIRE.
Friday night Nebraska students will
gather about a hugh bonfire symboli
cal of Nebraska's hopes for a decisive
victory over the Kansas Saturday.
Every loyal Nebraskan should be
there so cthat the torchlight parade
may cbe the success it has been in
years past
Nebraska has a great team and the
game ought to be a good one for the
Kansas team has been working hard
to get in shape to give the mighty
Ilusker eleven a batle.
Every Nebraskan should be out Fri
day night to help welcome the Kan
sas team which will be introduced by
t-.l l. W t - - - - --
their captain from the balcony of the
Lincoln hotel.
THE CONVOCATION.
The disarmament convocation yester
day morning was a most inspiring one.
The preliminary meetings and work
leading up to this was hard work and
took a great deal of time to organize
in en effective way. The parade itself,
was a good piece of organization. The
entire affair was accomplished in i
way that should make us proud of
those behind it.
Too much credit for the work which
had to be done in connection with it
cannot be given the committee which
was composed of Jessie Watson, Adel
fceit Dettman, AsU Hepperly, Ruth
Kadel, Kenneth McCandless. Glenn
Mungor, Dorothy Pierce, Ward Randol.
Mary Sheldon, Roy Wythers and Dean
Buck.
ARMISTICE DAY.
Three years ago tomorrow the great

lion fighting men gave a prayer of

two million were equally thankful.
November 11th is a day that is and
will be one of the' greatest in our his
tory. It is a day on which we rejoice
because of the end of that terrible
slaughter and rejo're because the thing
fought for was brought nearer to us
by the sacrifice world peace.
Tomorrow, in our Kmall way, we will
Co our bit to sliow our thankfulness,
toward those that fought. Tomorrow,
the University is to have a place in the
parade that will march through the
streets of Lincoln. Kvery man in the
University that was in the service of
the United States during the period of

Professor Sweezy first showed some
pictures of a few of the great tele

observatories are the Yerkes Observa
tory at Williams Bay, Wis., and the
Lick Observatory on t. Hamilton In
California, The largest lens and mir

situated above the clouds because the
atmospheric conditions are more fav
orable to the work of observation. The
r.rt of photographing through a tele
scope has greatly increased knowledge
of astronomy. Many pictures that are
taken of distant star clusters require
rn exposure of several nights.
Great care is used in making lens
and mirrors for telescopes. Professor
Sweezy told of an astronomer in Cali
fornia who has been working on a
single lens for five years.
Most Stars In One Cluster.
These mammoth telescopes are
largely used to observe distant stars
and nebulae. For observation of plan
ets and closer stars a smaller tele
scope is sufficient. Professor Swezey
explained that most of the stars which
we see belong to one star cluster.
There is an infinite number ot other
star clusters and distant nebulaes not
visible to the naked eye.
The distance of these other star
clusters Is almost beyond our powe3
lo comprehend. The distance cannot
be measured in miles but is measured
by the number of years it takes their
light to reach the earth. Light travels
186,000 miles per second. Many stars
are 35,000 light years away. The near
est star is four light years away. The
sun is by this scale eight minutes dis
tance from the earth. Recent meas
ures place the globular clusters from
