owned the block of land, and during
the fall and summer it was remod
eled and refurnished. February 13,
1920 it was formally opened and
dedicated,
Says the Daily Nebraskan of Feb
ruary 16, 1920: "The house has un
dergone extensive remodeling and is
now all that could be desired for a
home for women students. The old
mosaic floors of the court and en
trance hall have been retained, while
well finished oak floors have replaced
the' old carpeted boors of the other
rooms.
"The drawing room with its ex
quisite woodwork of bird's, eye ma
pie is at the right of the entrance,
Occupying the center of the room
is a lovely tabe made from an old
square rosewood piano, which was
left in the house by Mrs. Mabel
Richards Ricketts who lived there
irom ner girmooa. in one recess
stands a grand piano wihch was the
gift of the W. S. G. A.
The room which is now Miss Hepp
ner's office was originally the porte
cochere, so that in making it, it was
only necessary to put in the walls
the roof was there already.
Spanish Patio
Mr. and Mrs. Sheldon returned
from a European tour in 1886, and
incorporated in their new home,
which was completed in the spring
of 1888, the idea of the Spanish
patio. All the second floor rooms
open on a balcony which runs around
the court, except on the west where
there is a deep bay window of col
ored art glass which, with the sky
light of similar colored panes, lights
the court.
This colored art glass is also used
in the upper parts of all the first
floor windows, and in spite of dero
gatory remarks cast against it by art
instructors because it is a "good"
example of the "bad" Victorian
taste, is a very essential part of the
old home. And, though Ellen Smith
Hall may not be artistically beauti
ful it holds a place of first affection
in the hearts cf older cilhens of Lin
conl. The floor of the court is paved
with mosaic in bluish tints, for the
laying of which it was necessary to
import skilled Italian workmen from
New York. A blue tapestry, brought
from Europei hy the builders, is
framed with minves above the large
fireplace in the court. Another Euro
pean souvenir, a bronze plate witb,
figures carved in relief, is set above
the fireplace in the dining room.

high hurdle champion, running unat

in record breaking time but was dis
qualified because he knocked over
two hurdles. Krause, letter man, was
also disqualified in the high hurdle
event for upsetting too many hurdles.
The Cornhusker entries reached
Kansas City late Saturday afternoon
and missed out on the preliminary
heats in the dashes. Art Easter, soph

semi-final heat of the 50-yard dash
running against Wilcox who won the

this from fifty cents," remarked Pro
fessor H. A. White, varsity debate
coach, "to see if we can attract more
people." It is necessary to have a
good-sized audience in the new type
of debate for the judging is entirely
up to them. Each person is urged to
vote on the merits of the question,
both before and after the debate.
After the debaters have concluded
their refutation, and the ballots have
been collected, the audience is asked
to express any opinions or ask ques
tions of the members of either team.
Presentation speeches last twelve
minutes, and refutation six.
Twenty-seventh Debating Season
Nebraska is in its twenty-seventh
seasonof intercollegiate debating,
having started in 1901. Debaters are
chosen from debate classes by three
judges, authorities upon debating,
and in no way connected with the
University. Three questions are be
ing debated this season. First, "Re
solved, that this house thinks the
ethics of the modern business world
are incompatible with sound mor
ality." Second, "Resolved, that this
house deplores the tendency of gov
ernments to interfere in the rights
of individuals." Third, "Resolved,
that Secretary Kellogg's policy in
regard to Central America should be
discontinued."
The next debate will be held at
Auburn, Nebraska, March 12. The
debate will be on the third ctated
question against Kansas.

stock but better livestock.
"No one can criticise the man's
methods. He did not over-produce.
He cut down the production expen
ses and at the same time marketed
a higher quality product. Farmers
who have followed this example are
the ones who have made the most
money lately, and the ones who will
make the most in the future.
Farmers Cautioned
"Act with reason the year after a
bumper crop," Harold Hedges of tho
agricultural college said in his sum
mary of the 1928 outlook for Ne
braska agriculture which he gave
during the morning session.
"Such years as 1927 come only a
few times in a lifetime, and it takes
extreme optimism to expect that
1928 will give Nebraska &3 good
crops as were harvested last year. A
big increase in crop acreages or in
number of livestock is not warranted
for Nebraska in 1928."
