Kllllnf two birds with one Moue" will bave to
be clianited to 'kllllns four or five birds with a
Piuele stone' If the present nieacure before the itat
leslilature. H. U. 504. pa.-eA both houi.es and i
t elves the signature of Governor Weaver.
The bill calls for the construction of a Joint
heating and llghiinK plant to serve the I'nivemity
of Nebraska buildings and the new state capitol
building, the estimated cost of which U placed at
J32C.000. Tropofied amendment to the orlglual bill
Ftlpulates that the University shall pay three fifths
of the cost of the plant out of funds appropriated
by the legislature, while the state would Mand ths
remaining expense out of ,he capitol levy.
As the situation now stands before the capitol
commission and the University, there is an absolute
necessity for the construction of a new heating plant
to supply the new capitol building being erected,
and on the other hand the present University heat
ing unit which baa been overburdened for many
years. Is In dire need of replacement. Construction
of new buildings on the campus has taxed the heat
ing plant almost beyond comprehension of engin
eering statistics. Upon this double need for heating .
plants, then, taxpayers could see the first two birds
killed by the single stone legislative action to con
struct the Joint lighting and heating plant.
R. L. Cochran, secretary of the state depart
ment of public works, has estimated that the saving
by a Joint plant would amount to $125,00 on the
initial investments. The savings made each year
would rapidly pile up to approach this Initial
economy.
A new heating plant serving the University and
the state house would serve as a practical laboratory '
tor hundreds of students registered in the College
of Engineering. A modern plant, large enough to ;
accommodate engineering students, could be turned i
into University classroom equipment without extra
expenditure on the part of the taxpayers of the
state
Sufficient electricity could be generated to sup
ply both the dow ntown and the College of Agriculture
campuses, aa well as the capitol building. The state
ow ned plant would be the source of much statistical
material that could be sent Into the municlpally
owned power plants over the state, information
which would be beneficial to the smaller towns over
the slate In conducting their light and power plants.
There would be no danger of any so-called power
trust propaganda coming from such a plant.
And so there are many birds, but
Three fifths of the cost of the Joint power plant
would cost the University $3l5'00 out of the gen
eral maintenance fund. Governor Weaver's recom
mended increase of 10 per cent for maintenance of
the University amounts to approximately $362,00".
rtfty thousand of the $0,000 recommended for build
ing iurpo 1 specified for dormitories. Subtract
IJ10.000 from the funds for the University's part in
the Joint plant, and see what's left!
Where is the increase in professorial salaries
coming from, if the funds are consumed in the con
struction of a much-needed healing plant? Where
are funds coming from for the general running vt
peases of the University? Circumstances have so
placed the University in the position to demand in
creased funds that it is difficult to see where to
draw the line.
The legislature must see the necessity for a
heating plant, the saving that can be made by the
construction of a Joint plant, and at the same time
they must see the need for elevating the salaries
of faculty members. And lastly, they cannot forget
the dormitories.

Even the roost genial faculty man, whose under

cannot sympathise with the problems of the college
student ss can a man fresh from the ranks. The
University of Wisconsin, progressive institution Is
trying out the novel jdan of putting five first-year I
graduates, not over twenty-five years old, in charge
of advising freshmen enrolled in arts and letters.
The sdvlsers, selected for sctlviUes, scholarship

THE CO-ED DOES HER STUDYING
Severs) members of the NsUonal Association of j .
Iieans of Women, in convention at Cleveland re
cently, spoke to the effect that girls go to college
to study and not merely "for dates and to collect
fraternity pins." The convention seemed to agree
on this point, for it was a convention of women
who are Intimately associated with the college girl
and know something of ber trials.
It is those who do not know the facts of the
case who look upon the young co-ed as a mere
butterfly. Because long hours of poring over books
is nothing to sound the alarm or write home about,
the general public bears only of the glamor which
surrounds the life of the college girl and sees pri
marily the gala life of week-ends or the persistent
"Jeflylng" which some students Indulge in.
Tbe story of a fire which broke out in a'CoIum
bia home recently at S o'clock in the morning, told
of one of the household who was still up studying.
A surrey of the city between midnight and daybreak
displaying the many lights sprinkled about would
make one conclude that this is not an unusual case.
A few lights, of course, would be flickering over
"bull" session, bnt occasionally the midnight oil is
burned over study sprees.
The girl who comes to the university to trifle
ber time away soon has the gate opened for ber by
university authorities, and she make exit while she
is still an underclass woman. In spite of their many
avocations, thoe who remain after tbe elimination
process expend some good hail toil on lessons, even
though it is concealed from the public gaze.
