81nee the check room haa been In
operation The Nebraskan haa had no
further need of publlBhlng notices
relative to loflt, misplaced and stolen
overcoats. Much confusion has been
avoided and tho check-room has
proved, more than ever, to be almost
an absolute necessity.
Another very satisfactory Improve
ment Ib the fitting of all gymnasium
lockers with padlocks and tho removal
of the old combinations. Less com
plaint Is heard of lost and missing
property, and only tho men using a
locker at present possees the means of
getting into it, whereaB before, who
ever had used the locker at any time
knew the combination and could open
It. Much time Is also saved by tho
use of padlocks.
Whero is the band? This is a ques
tion quite properly asked by Univer
sity students dally. Everyone misses
the presence of tho cadet musicians
and the excellent music they furnished
for University functions last year. In
deed they were one of the most pleas
ing features of University life. When
ever a crowd waB desired at chapel,
all that waa necessary was to bulletin,
"Band at Convocation," and Btandlng
room would bo at a premium. ThlB
year the band haa only appeared once,
and then reflected no great credit up
on itself. In the fall the band num
bered about thirty, this being some
five more than last year's enrollment.
Nearly all the old players were book
and some fine new material came, in.
It Is understood that' dissatisfaction
arose between tho v members jof tho
band and the department of which
it Is a branch. Men began falling out
and kept It up until now there are
only about fifteen men In tho band,
and they are thero because they have
to take drill. It Ib highly expedient
that some action be taken to rostore
harmony and put the band on the
same basis as In the fall.
The Beason of basket-ball is more
than half over and but very little has
been done in the way of class contests.
Ia8t year considerable interest was
aroused in class basket-ball and much
strife and rivalry existed between the
various clasBes. All the games were
well attended, especially by Lincoln
people. These class games are a good
thing. They add to the welfare of
basket-ball in general, help to keep up
much needed class enthusiasm, and
are of direct benefit to those partici
pating In them. Now that the class
debate Is over, it is high time that
claBsmen wake up and set "something
doing" In an athletic way.
Five hours of drill almost deprives
the basket-boll class of two of their
practlco hours on Tuesday and Thurs
day at 5 o'clock. This Ib the hour
which Is most satisfactory to the play
ers and an attempt will be made to
carry on drill and basket-ball practice
at the same time. When the battalion
drills outside the gym can be used by
tho class. But when tho battalion
drills inside the class will be forced
to hold practice in the new chapel,
which Is very inconvenient owing to
tho small slae of the field. A still
worse predicament Ib that some of the
first and second team men are drilling
and It is Impossible for them to do two
things at once. JuHt what arrange
ments will be made Is not yet definite
ly known. It Is hoped that matters
can be so adjusted as not to make drill
and basket-ball Interfere.
The basket-ball management Is cer
tainly deserving of considerable credit
for tho way in which games have been
secured for tho second team. While
the scrubs have not played put of town,
this could hardly be expected as It Is
very hard to place- this Bport on a
paylhg basis for tho first team, let
alone tho second. But hath teams
have played the samo number of home
games. In order to have a good first
team, wo must have a second able
to make tho first work hard at each
practice. To have a good 'varsity next
year we must have a good second team
this year. The way to accomplish this
end is exactly tho method which has
been pursued. By securing games for
the second five", interest and enthusi
asm are kept up among these men and
they are relieved of the monotony and
discouragement of lining up for defeat
by the Bame opponents three times a
week.

Dr. Luckoy occupied yesterday's con
vocation hour with an instructive talk
upon the evolution of the National Ed
ucational Association, of which he is
now one of the departmental superin
tendents. The association had Its real
"beginnings" In tho "educational
renaissance" of America following the
final attainment of nationality after
the war of 1812. At this time state
constitutions were reconstructed and
provisions were made for general sys
tems of education, under supervision
of the states themselves. At the same
time local and charitable educational
organizations came Into existence nu
merously throughout the country.
This movement was accompanied by
the first evidences of "educational as
sociation" organization the appear
ance of county teachers' associations.
In 1830 there grew out of these lesser
societies a national one, known as the
American Institute of Instruction,
composed chiefly of New England and
New York teachers. Another year
produced the Western Association of
College Teachers (Ohio), and by 1840,
the movement toward state teachers'
associations was well begun. New
York taking the lead. At the sugges
tion of the presidents of the New
York and Massachusetts associations,
a national organization was attempted
in 1857, and although the second meet
ing, hold at Cincinnati In 1858, con
tained only five of the original thirty
eight members, a little strategy on the
part of the five raised the member
ship to seventy-five within a few min
utes, and saved the association from
abandonment. Since then the Nationul
Teacheis' Association has become a
permanent and prosperous Institution.
It has merged several other similar
organization with itself since 1870, un
til it now has eighteen departments,
a membership attendance of 10,000 an
nually, and an income of $20,000 year
ly. At present it has $98,000 accrued
Income, Invested in interest-bearing
bonds. Under the leadership of Presi
dent Eliot, of Harvard, it has this
year introduced two or three decided
innovations. The annual meetings are
to comprise departmental sessions In
the morning, and general meetings In
the evening, leaving the members free
to visit local scenes of Interest dur
ing the afternoons. Superintendents
of departments have also recently been
called to Boston to consult with the
president concerning the program,
thus preventing overlapplngs and con
flicts. From this meeting Dr. Luckey
bnt recently returned. In conclusion
Professor Luckey quoted the original
motto of the association: "To elevate
the character and advance the Inter
ests of the profession of teaching, and
to promote tho cause of popular edu
cation in tho United States"; and read
from the resolutions calling for the
same standard of examinations and
requirements for teachers that were
now insisted upon for such professions
as medicine and law.
