Purpose Raises Morale
There are two types of studenta,
Miss Towne declared. Those who
have a definite purpose In life, and
those who are full of vigor, hope,
enthusiasm and ambition but pur
poseless. Yet life Is full of purpose
and every vocation needs a strong

Knowledge of the different voca

Doane Says Condition Will

WEAVE?. SUGGESTS PLAN
Unless the suggestion, which
amounts In effect to an invitation.
extended by Governor Weaver to
the alate historical society to avail
Itself of rooms as headquarters In
the new capllol building is carried
Into action, the library will con
tinue to be seriously hampered for
room. This statement was made
Monday evening by the university
librarian. Dr. Gilbert II. Doane.
"We are." stated Doctor Doane.
"receiving each year from 5.000 to
10,000 new books, blnce every
available bit of room has long since
been utilized, this means that we
must put an equal number of older
books In storage. We have reached
the point w here we no longer know
what to put away, for all the mate
rial Is very valuable and should be
within easy access."
Governor Suggests Move
Action was brought during the
present legislative session by the
historical society in the form of r
bill asking permission to mortgage
property owned by the society for
the purpose of erecting a building
to house the collections now kept
In the basement of the university
Library. The bill passed both
houses, but was vetoed by Gover
nor Weaver. In his message which
accompanied the rejection, the gov
ernor gave as reasons for his action
the facta that ttae-eoetty mw-ns)
fixed Income and that therefore in
the end the likelihood is that the
state would have to bear the bur
den of the obligations which the or
ganization contemplated making.
The governor suggested in nis
message that the collections of the
historical society be moved to the
state capllol. which provides ade
quate provisions for all Institutions
of itf character yet, no aclion
has been taken in regard to ibis
suggestion.
With the use of the space now oc
cupied by the historical body, the
library could provide shelving ior
30,000 additional volumer. If the
legislative reference bureau were
also moved to the capitol, where it
was originally located, there wouk
be space for 50.000 besides allowing
for needed office room.
The University now has a collec
tion of 225,000 volumes, only half
of which is housed in the library
building. Fully 50.000 valuable ref
erence Dooks are siorea iu iwo
basement rooms where it is Impos
sible for them to be reached by
student personally. The basements
are not lighted for library purposes
and it is usually necessary to use a
flashlight in locating needed vol
umes.

For the past three milking pe

has averaged ten gallons of milk
per day, Sundays and holidays In

common cows produce. Beauty Girl
Gerben Rebecky is her name. She
is a purebred Holstein who calls
the North Platte experiment sta

her home.
Beauty Girl could be the foster
mother of an entire village. Ten
gallons of milk would provide close
to 175 baby bottles full of milk,
enough for the baby population of
quite a village. It would fill the
milk bottle on forty doorsteps. It
would serve a glass or milk to 160
