show a group of men of higher attainments on the

by which applicants are judged, featuring abilities in

Back to students: There is a large body of stu

concerned, at McGill. Fine fellows, full of fight, ready

the wings of an angel" they sigh one and all.
There they sit, (see them gentlemen!) in the Li
brary with open books before them, with eyes full of
visions of a great and beautiful world, a world just
as real to them as life. They see great things being
done by science and the stamping out of disease, in
the building of great and beautiful cities, in making
mankind happier and more beautiful in form and men

These young men have the vision just as truly as

expenditures in campaigns for the
House and Senate. ,

with official corruption and invasions
of the constitutional guarantees
against unwarranted searches and
seizures. He is an implacable foe of
the Anti-Saloon League. In his most
recent statement on prohibition, he
declared it to be a moral and not a
partisan issue.
Position on Other Legislation
Senator Reed opposed the Four
Power pact of the Haiding Adminis
tration, as an entagling alliance; led
the fight against American participa
tion in the Wprld Court, and at
tacked the Mellon debt settlements
as a virtual cancellation of the war
time obligations of foreign govern
ments at the expense of the Ameri
can taxpayer. He is friendly toward
the Mexican policy of the Coolidge
Administration.
Senator Reed is one of the most

Friends and opponents agree that he
is able and unafraid. He is an orator
of charm and power, and a rough
and-tumble debater without a supe
rior among his colleagues. His
eyes are blue, his hair white, his
form lean and erect. He proved his
physical vigor during the filibuster
in the last session of Congress by
making one of the most fiery
speeches of his career after he had
been up all night.
Such is Reed of Missouri, the same

FRANK B. WILLIS
Volstead Act in season and out. He
sponsored the bill which made it im
possible for physicians to prescribe
beer and ale.
In the opinion of Senator Willis
the big issue in the coming national
campaign will be the continuance of
the policies of the government de
veloped during the last six years with
President Coolidge in the White
House.
"The party must stand on its re
cord for economy, for businesslike
administration of the government
and for safe foreign policy," he said.
Opposed to League of Nationa
Senator Willi3 is not one of those
who believe the United States should
become a member of the League of
Nations.
"I thought it would have been a!
disaster to join the League under the
terms of the Treaty of Versaiyes,
and I am opposed to it now," he said.
He is a member of the Senate For
eign Relations Committee and as
such has taken a prominent part in
the work of the senate regarding the
country's foreign relations. He is
chairman, too, of the Senate Com
mittee on Territories and Insular
Possessions and has a keen interest
in the Philippines, Alaska and other
outlying American possessions. Dur
ing his service, first in the house nnd
later in the senate, Mr. Willis has
played his part in framing much of
the important legislation of the last
two decades. He was first elected
to the House of Representatives in
1910, taking his seat in 1911, and
served until 1915, when he resigned
to become Governor of Ohio.
For Protective Tariff
As a member of the Senate Com
mittee on Commerce, he has inter
ested himself particularly in the up
building of the Bureau of Foreign
and Domestic Commerce in the De-
nartment of Commerce, ihe same
committee has charge of legislation
dealing with the rivers and harbors
of the country.

is an old-fashioned Republican. He
believes in a protective tariff, and he
does not believe in tearing down the

the country have been developed.

erance in the Senate. He believes
that the tedency to centralize power
at Washington should be checked.
He is for tariff reduction and for a
large national program of inland
waterway development to be financed

eration of honest business from op-
pressie interference by govern
mental agents, and the prosecution
and punishment of those who by

Eastern Schooli Fall Short of Mark
Set by Husker Teamt Remaining
Results Not Reported
The University of Nebraska Rifle
Team won the only two- matches
which have been reported to date for
the past week. Howard University
of Washington, D. C, fell a victim to
the fast shooting of the Husker
squad when they were defeated by
the score of 3545 to 3229. The best
ten scores counted in this match.
The other match, against .Johns
Hopkins of Baltimore, resulted in a
score of 1807 to 1712. Only the
five high scores counted in this con
test. Cornell University and Texas
A. & M. have not reported as yet.
ATerage Falls
The Husker riflera turned in very
creditable scores the past week but
the team average as a whole fell
down a trifle. Captain Otradovsky
states, however, that the men are
snapping into form and that remark
able scores may be expected.
Firing in the Hearst Trophy match
has not began as yet but the men are
expecting to begin their record firing
toward the end of the week. This
match is nation-wide and the team is
very desirous of turning in an excep
tional score. The trophies for the
winners are beautiful and very much
worth working for.
Win Majority
Nebraska also turned in a credit
able record during the week of March
10 when they won two matches and
lost one. The teams defeated were
the University of Delaware and Ohio
State University. The University of
Vermont scored a victory over the
Huskers scoring the high score of
3667. The University of Pennsylva
nia at Philadelphia has not reported
their score.
The Nebraska team has been win
ning a majority of their matches this
season and the officers in charge of
the rifle gallery are well satisfied
with the seasoon's record so far.
Jaques Thibaud Gives
Views on Music

world, to devote my time to my prac
ticing, I retire to my country home,
ten hours drive from Paris.
"There I know I will have time and
quiet to develop my art, to put the
finishing touches on it. But Paris
is a beautiful city. It is different
from any other city I have ever seen.
It would inspire your students. There
is no country like my country,
France, for inspiration!"
"But, Mr. Thibaud," someone else
asked, "Do you not think great
American artist can be produced in
Chicago or New York for instance?"
"Oh, of course, but they have to
have talent." he answered. "Talent
is the requisite in all things. A mus
ical education is useless without tal
ent. The student must have the gift
from God. He must be talented.
After that, he must put his whole
heart and soul into his work, and he
must work."
"What is your motto for success,
Mr. Thibaud?"
"Hard work," was the answer.
"The young man or young woman
should choose his or her profession
and then make up his mind to stay
with it, to think of it every moment,
in other words, to think of success.
But most of all, hard work is nec
essary. I practiced ten hours a day.
Paderewski does the same. Every
artist does. Being an artist doesn't
mean that you must stop practicing
after you have become an artist. It
means you must strive all the more
for perfection in your art."
Speaking of his contemporaries he
said, "I love Kreislerl He is my very
best friend. He is a man who is un
selfish."
Since Mr. Thibaud's American de
but twenty years ago he has steadily
progressed in the affections of the
concert going public, so that during
the past season he played sixty per
formances in a five month period.
Six symphony orchestras invited his
collaboration, and he gave recitals in
New York, Chicago, San Francisco,
and intervening musical centers.
He paid very high tribute to Lin
coln as a musical center, saying
"Your people seem to love music.
They should, for music is something
to be loved."
