At the brginninu' of the year some
Htuclcnts, (not many, thank good
ness I) registered for work expecting
to have a Knap. A few of, tho un
fortunates wcro soon convinced of
''tho errors of their wayH," hut
rattier than pay the penalty for In
consistency, to wit: $.'t,0) to re
register, they simply forgot jjto attend
classes and thought thus to escape.
An edict, by no means uncertain
In its terms, lias been issued and Liu
instructors can now sit back and en
Joy revenge watching the agita
tions (tf tho 'sneaks,' and at the
samo timo mutter to himself "by
their works shall ye bo known."
.Strictness, and thus a raising of
our standaid is approved by the
great majority.
CHOUUh TRAINING.
Tho ability to read music, to
understand pitch relations is the
foundation of all musical culture,
and ho who has this much knowledge
of music and no more, will find that
whatever his station in life It will be
useful knowledge. Most students
who aro nut directly Interested in
Lho study of music are not aware
that there are In the University un-
y usual advantages for the study of
(moral music at d tho great works of
tho masters, ('hisses for beginners
and advanced students open to all
in this most Invigorating and pleas
ant study, and a still larger number
do not rciilir.o that unless lb is ob
tained while hero in college It will
never be acquired.
What other study can bo mentioned
which can be .mistered with so little
effort that will bo so constantly used
through life and give so much pleas
uio. How few public gatherings or
Handy Note Book
We have just (jotter: out a
new ii' to book which wo
have named tho 'Handy
Note Hook." It slips into

The handiest cover out.
social functions aro enmploto without
music and how few such acceptable
services as those of song from the
c.radlo to the grave. Very few stu
dents enter tho University who have
any knowledge of sight reading. This
is true from the fact that music, is
not a required study in the public
schools of the state and in this re
spect Nebraska is fat nehlnd her
sister h tares. In Iowa for instance
tho law rqulres it to be taught at ail
county institutes and the fundament
al principles In 'II tho schools, the
results obtained have been highly
gratifying and questions relating to
tho best methods of teaching It are
discussed at tho annual meeting
of the state association. Until
such a state of things exists in
Nebraska tho University must sim
ply tho need but lb is believed bliab
in a comparatively short timo tho
teacher who is able to instruct her
pupils In the proper use of the breath
In song, and tho elements of sight
reading will bo more and more sought
for, thus the work of preparing the
student for tho study of the great
choral works wld eventually he
accomplished before ho completes the
high school course and the inteiest
in the supplemental study of the 1
oratorio will be immensely increased. I
During tho last seven years the fol- j
lowing works trive been given at sue-j
cessivo commencement occasions,
"Tho Creation" by Ilaynen, The 1
Hymn of "Praise "and "Hlijah" by;
Mendelssohn, "St. Johns TCve" by
Conn. "The Crusaders" by Oade,
St. Paul" by Mendelssohn and
"The Messiah" by Handel, the lat
ter given for the second time. On
account of Its popularity the custom
of giving It annually at Christmas
time has been adopted.
A secular work will be given this
year which t ho chorous has just be
gan to study. "Hiawatha's Wedding
Feist", composed by R. Coleridge
Taylor a colored man whose com
positions are attracting wide atten
tion, as tho lirst of his race who lias
ever written so extensive a wtfrk,
and whose (tonus are replete with
exquisite haromnies.
I would like to say much more on
this subject but IT theses words shall
stimulate, a desire for better singing
they will have, served their purpose.

The Daily has called attention on
one or two occasions to a practico
among the young ladles of monopo
lizing tho library steos as places for
study. While it Is true tnat tho li
brary does not provide all tho study
room for all the student?, it Is lust
as true'that tho steps were mane for
other purposes. Tho practice is es
pecially notieable miring tho Art
exhibit, and Its disagreeableness to
tnose who are forced to uso tho steps
as tlioy were intended to be used is
generally greatly uncoror. A little
fore-thought on tho part of tho
young ladies would greatly con
venience those who have to use tho
stairway.
