sitv girls. As part of the piogiiUu
of the national organization oi' W. S

offer suggestions to girls who have
not decided unon a field of work af
ter college.
On November 16, Mr. M. G. Wyer
universitv librarian, gave the lirsv
talk of the series, on "Library Work

work, its opportunities for social serv
ice, and the means of eiiteiKig this

One talk will be given each in -.in til

Miss Helen Bennett of the collegian
bureau of occupation of Chicago, will
be here for two days at some time in
the second semester. She will give
general talks on vocational opportu
nities at a special convocation and
at a luncheon. Individual 'confer
ences will be held with girls regarding
personal problems arising in the se
lection of a calling. Miss Bennett has
bad wide experience in different lines
of work and is well qualified to give
practical help in each individual case.
The aim of W. S. G. A. is u pre
sent subjects of importance to every
university girl. The committee on vo
cational talks states through its chair
man. Ruth Lindsay, that it desires
sucgestions as to other subjects :'f

A building, larger than any on the
campus of the University of Nebraska
at the present time, would not even
commence to accommodate all of the
interesting material which the univet
sity museum has stored in its campus
buildings, in the basements of other
campus buildings and in store rooms
in the down part of Lincoln. Fully
$5,000,000 could be spent by the state
legislature in equipping a building
to take care of the museum aiid then
there still be room left for much
improvement.
Probably only about one out of ev
ery ten students who attends the Uni
versity of Nebraska has taken time
out long enough to go through the
museum building just north of the
armory. Yet without exception that is
the most interesting part cl' the entire
campus and has any building in thJ
ciy of Lincoln if not the st.'te ol Ne
braska outclassed so far as interest
ing contents go.
Everything from monstrous skeio
tons of primitive animals to petrified
bones o. Ithe smallest of animals,
.ire contained in the museum. Most
of the material has been gathered
from different parts of Nebraska, the
bad lands of the. western part of the
state laying claim to a great sliaro
of the contributions.
Pile Atop Each Other.
The bones which are on "hibition
in the building are so numerous mat
if they are to be shown at all they
have cf necessity been piled .;. top of
the cases. In large museums :i; most
cities, many of which have not nearly
so many interesting material as that
of the University cf Nebrak.i the
exhibiting bones and skeletons are
displayed with splendid effect. This u
accomplished because of tho large
amount of room which they have in
which to exhibit the things while at
the university museum the caves are
so close together that not more than
one person can pass at one time.
There is a muesum at Pittsburgh
which covers easily mere grounJ
space than any two of the campus
buildings. The building runs three
stories high and the exiiibits are given
more than enough room providing for
that city one of the best advertisers
it possibly could have. The stairways
are large and broad. The rooms are
large and each one contains a sep
arate exhibition of a separate class
of tilings, everything from fossils,
skeletons of animals of the pro-his
toric ages, costumes worn by a!! peo
ple in different ages, instruments of
war centuries since the first fight
interest. Should sufficient interest be
shown in a vocation other than those
to be discussed the committee will
arrange for an additional lecture.

Nebraska Museum as Good.
The exhibits in the University of
Nebraska museum are every bit as
good as those in the Pittsburgh one.
But because of the fact that the ex
hibits are contained In a rather un
kempt looking building, few students
ever enter it. There are some ex
hibits which outclass the Pittsburgh
museum many times and taken all In
all, the Nebraska exhibits are every
bit as good.
And then if there was the building
at the university to accommodate all
of the exhibits the mueseum has,
there would be many more interesting
things which the University of Ne
braska could get from time to time of
which at present it cannot make use.
Would Advertise University.
A beautiful museum building, sim
ilar in design to some of the other
attractive buildings on the campus,
would be one of the best adtrtisers
the University of Nebraska couid pos
sibly hope to possess. People from
all over the state would make it a
point to visit the niuseuni ao much
as the state penitentiary and the
state hospital, when they come to Lin
coln for the state fair or ether er
rands.
When thoy returned hoint they
would tell of the things they saw at
the museum much sooner than they
would talk of the penitentiary or the
stat hospital And more and more
the museum would become known and
soon tho entire country would be
Uh king at the University of Nebras
ka as possessing one of the best mu
seums in the I nited States. row mu
seums have more interesting exhibits
an does the Nebraska one.
Students Should Visit It.
All students in the University of
Nebraska who have not visited the
museum since their entrance into the
university should make it a point to
go through these most Interesting of
places in the city of Lincoln before
they leave. Not a person goes thru
the exiiibits once but what returns
second and a third time. Whiie the
building is not large in which the
exiiibits are contained, the quality and
quantity of the exhibits is such that
it is an almost endless job to prop
erly visit the mall.
It can be truthfully stated that any
student who goes through this build
ing will immediately make it a point
to advertise the museum and work to
have a better and larger building
built for it. A building four times
the size of any building on the cam
pus at the present time would not be
urge enough to accommodate all of
the material which the museum owns
but which are stored in different parts
jf the campus and city in the hope
that some day soon tfcre will be a
building such as will justify the qual
ity and quantity of the material con
tained therein.

When all of the companies have
completed their firing, rifle teams
will be picked for each unit and for
the entire regiment. Intra-regimental
matches will be held and the strong
est men will be chosen for the team
which will be sent to the national
matches.
Colonel Mitchell, commandant of
the Nebraska R. O. T. C, is making
plans for some rifle matches to be
held here at Nebraska in the near fu-1
ture. The Colonel himself is an ex
cellent marksman, and the units
which he has commanded have always
had exceptionally strong' rifle teams.
Colonel Mitchell expects to put rifle
shooting on as firm a basis as any
of the ether minor sports at the Uci
vrsity of Nebraska.
