With no opposition or comment
H. R. 534. Joint heating plant bill
I for University and state capitol.
was advanced to third reading Fri
' day. Tbe bill introduced by Rep
! resentatives Adams of Howard and
Hansen of Lincoln creates a Joint
commission to be appointed by the
Board of Regents and the capitol
commission to supervise the erec
tion and equipping oi a laut to
supply heat for-the University, the
capitol and the governor's man
sion. As the measure was originally in
troduced it provided for an appro
priation of $523,000 which is the
estimated tots! cost of the plant.
This item of the bill was stricken
out by the committee and the meas
ure as amended provides that
three-flfths of the cost shall be
from funds of tbe University
hereafter appropriated with two
fifths coming from the capitol levy-
The capitol share amounting to
$210,000 will be taken out of the
capitol levy and that was provided
for in the capitol levy bill. The
University's sbare amounting to
approximately $315,000 must be
provided for in the regular appro
priation bill.
With no opposition in the com
mittee of whole it appears likely
that it will be approved by the
bouse at third reading and ad
vanced to the senate.

Customs of World Show Many Ways
In Which Easter Time Is Observed
Time was that the "paschal"
egg was deemed the only appro
priate gift for Easter-tide, and this
custom is still observed in some
civllired countries; but in America
time is now when the more benev
olent giver sends flower, or candy
and the Scotchman send. hi. little
lllutrated "greetings card."
For those who depend on the
almanac and fashion plate for light
and leading, Easter means a time
of changing styles, and takes the
appearance of a sort of national
millinery opening. This also gives
rise to catty remarks by the less
fortunate and aore feet to tbeehop
girls.
Celebrate In Many Waya.
Many students are celebrating
Easter In an unusual way. We find
them flocking to cburch in units,
going early to get good seats, and
