The action taken by the different classes In arranging for class debates will bo of a great service in general. All students should give encouragement and support to their class representa tives and do all in their power to in sure the permanency of class debates. Some one has remarked that the uni versity improvement or cleanliness club would do well to make steps to got rid of the nuisance of spitting In the halls and upon both Inside and outside steps of the building. It Beams that some students have been guilty of using tobacco and expectorating In an indiscriminate manner at the dif ferent places mentioned above. Some thing ought to bo done to do away with tho nuisance. It is amusing to see the comments made by eastern college papers and especially of those middle west schools with whom Nebraska played ball this fall. They all seem to delight in giv ing us a dig, and some even go so far as to make insulting remarks about tho university. While wo naturally resent such we can not but view with somo interest the defensive attitude which most of theBo schols have as sumed, charging Nebraska with many things so as to hide their own manifest faults, especially along football lines. At Pennsylvania the "Clark Research Chair of AssyiHology," has Just been established with an endowment of $100,000. y II THE DAILY NEBRASKAN Class Debates. Tho Sophomores and. Freshmen have concluded to follow In the tracks of tho upper classmen and are making arrangements for a debate to be held In tho near future. The Sophomore class meets today nnd tho Freshmen tomorrow. At these meotlngs the mat ter will bo further discussed and defi nite action taken. Both Presidents 8wceloy and Whoelor will probably appoint those who are to represent their respective classes this week. Dr. Sinner's Paper. Dr. Skinner's second contribution, "On the Conditions Controlling the Drop of Potential at tho Electrodes In Vacuum Tubes," has appeared in the Philosophical Magazine (London). Tho nature of vacuum discharges has been recognized as a question of great Importance for some time and has oc casioned considerable discussion In the physical and electrical journals. Dr. Skinner's paper has caused much discussion at homo and abroad. Boxing has been added to Pennsyl vania's football training. Sam Anderson has charge of a church at Germaritown, where he goes to conduct services every Sunday. Walter J. Hunting, '00, is now super intendent of public schools at Ohlowa, Neb. This is his third term In that capacity. Professor Stout of tho civil engin eering department had an article pub lished recently, relating to Irrigation in Nebraska, Wyoming and Colorado. Professor Caldwell addressed the class in educational methods Thursday evening upon the subject, "Tho Teach ing of History in Elementary Schools." Mr. Arthur Pearse will be married to Miss Mary Lehmer of Omaha, De comber 23. Mr. Pearse Is ono of the strongest all around men ever grad uated by the university. Ho has been connected with tho Omaha high school since his departure from his alma ma ter. It may be of interest to somo to know that the railroads aro In sore need of Bkilled workmen for thoiri construction and repair shops and that men with some previous mechanical training are especially needed. Mr. Ackerman, master mechanic of tho Burlington shops at Havelock, says that university men are tho most satis factory workmen he has to deal with. ATTHEOUVER llni. Students Attention !
