OTHER CAMPUSES
CAMBRIDGE: Gifts and lega
cies received by Harvard university
during last year totaled $14,421,
697.68. President A. Lawrence
Lowell told their Alumni associa
tion last week. .
New HAVEN: A new system of
cribbing was uncovered in the Yale
biology department recently. When
the instructor gave true and false
tests the shrewd students would
sit and listen to the clicks of a
blind classmate's typewriter in an
adjoining room two clicks for
"no" and three clicks for "yes."
It was puzzling for the instructor;
he wondered why the class was
doing so well. When he finally
discovered the system he venge
fully persuaded the blind leader to
lype "no" for "yes" and "yes" for
"no." Then be marked the papers.
GRINNELL: Bicycle riding and
roller skating have been added to
the list of athletic activities for
women at Grinnell college. A rec
reation department has been added
to the Grinnell Women's Athletic
association and the department has
suTerviion of the new activities.

Quoting the saying, "Let me

STUDENTS MAY HEAR CARILLONS
The "Singing Tourer9 Sings
Summer session students may
hear Nebraska's first carillon at
the First Plymouth church,
Twentieth and D streets. The caril
lon, famous among the great ca
thedrals of Europe, is unknown as
yet in Nebraska except for the
Lincoln Carillon which ranks
among the great carillons of the
world.
The carillons were recently dedi
cated by Anton Brees. player of
the Bok Carillon at Lake Wales,
Fla., who gave a series of ten re
citals late in May.
Tne Lincoln Carillon, known as
"the singing tower." is 171 feet in
height. It is called a "singing
tower," because such is the tradi
tional name of a carillon tower.
From early medieval times in the
Netherlands, Belgium, and the
north of France, watch towers
were erected from which sentinels
could see the flooding of te
dykes or the coming of the in
vaders. In such a crisis the blow
ing of the horn by the watcher
would summon the people to the
threatened danger.
uradually a bell replaced the
horn. Then clocks were introduced
into the towers and bells were
struck to mark the passing hours.
More bells were added, then
chimes on which tunes were played
at the quarter hours, and more
fully before the big bell struck
the hour. Slowly thru the suc
ceeding centuries still more bells
were added until in the seven-

teenth century, the carillon was
evolved.
From the Belfry of Ghent, bells
still ring, even as they did when
the treaty of peace between the
United States and Great Britain
was signed on Christmas Eve,
1814.
Chancellor Burnett,

Chancellor E. A. Burnett,
and Dean W. W. Burr, of the
college of agriculture, attended

Kearney in the company of a
party of United States congressman.
the importance of literature in the
development of a national pride.
It is in the f 'ritual develop
ment of the individual that litera
ture makes the most important
contribution, is the belief of Pro
fessor Thomas. For it is in the
application of literary works to
life and the finer art of living that
literature is most worthwhile. Two
literary characters were reviewed
in portraying two common defects
in man, lack of vision and the in
ability to convert vision into a
reality. By a study of literature,
one may become conscious of his
own accomplishments and defects,

fortable place for study. Any other
cooling systems are out of the
question at the present time on
account of limited funds.
