Lincoln. May 16.—Wealthy Omaha
-alumni of Nebraska's university are
reported to be pushing a project to
build a number of large dormitories
around the university campus in an
effort to meet present-day criticism
of student life in Lincoln, namely:
High rentals and food prices.
Lack of restraint outside the cam
pus resulting in late, uncertain hours
and habits detrimental to physical,
mental and moral growth of students.
The first step toward realization of
this dream of the Omaha philanthro
pists, reported to be behind the move
ment, was the passage of a bill by the
last legislature. This bill empowers
•university regents to pay individuals
1-2 per cent, on capital invested in
dormitories.
Contract for Service.
Under the plan under discussion
students or their parents desiring to
take advantage of low rentals and
low food prices to be charged in these
dormitories would enter Into a con
tract with university officials for such
service. This contract also would call
upon the signer to abide by dormitory
rules established by the university of
ficials. which would be enforced by
superintendents of dormitories em
ployed by the state.
These rules would call for a modu
lated program of the regular boarding
school. The chief requisites would be:
At a certain hour students would be
obliged to be in their rooms and at
certain hours lights must be turned
•out.
The owners of the property would
A compensated by the 5 1-2 per cent
on their invested capital, which it is
felt would not force university offi
cials to demand much for rentals ar.d
board. It Is believed such a plan, if
it is carried out, will cut the cost of

It is not planned to force students
to go into the dormitories. It would
be optional, although there is some
talk of giving university officials
power to tell students, lx hind in their
studies, that if they will enter the
dormitories and really study, the sus

students will be withheld.
The plan Is njeeting with much op
position from the hundreds of widows
operating rooming houses in Lincoln,
as well as from landlords of apart
ment houses. Lincoln hus more
widows, comparatively speaking, than
any city In the slate, because many
women in tho state, left with a few
thousand dollars, move to Lincoln
and invest the money in a rooming
house.

Quaker Oats
Cooks in 3 to S minutes
The quickest cooking oats in the world
Now your grocer has Quaker
Oats in two styles. One the kind
you have always known—the other
is Quick Quaker.
Quick Quaker cooks in from 3 to
S minutes. And it cooks to perfec
tion. So it is almost like a ready
cooked dish.
No other oat flakes on the market
cook anywhere near so quickly.
The two styles are identical in
quality and flavor. Both are flaked
from the finest grains only—just the
rich, plump, flavory oats. A bushel
of choice oats yields but ten pounds
of these delicious flakes.
But in Quick Quaker the oats are
cut before flaking. They are rolled
very thin and partly cooked. So the
flakes are smaller and thinner—that
is all. And those small, thin flakes
cook quickly.
Ask for Quick Quaker if you want
this style. Your grocer has both.
But always get Quaker Oats for
their delightful flavor.
