Editorial Remarks
The debating tiubH are getting under
way nnd have already perfected organ
isation. It seen that an increased in
terest is being taken by new studonts
In debuting and Judging from the pres
ent outlook excellent prospects favor
the work of the clubs. Nebraska now
holdB tho leadership in debating among
tho collogeB of tho middle west and
tho swelling of the runks of rocrults
In tho work moans tho riso of now lead
ers in tho future to tako tho places of
those whom each passing year re
moves from the field. The actual ben
efit derived from practice in form
ing a logical argument and developing
efficient robuttal more than repays a
man for his time, not counting tho
self-possession and readiness of ad
dress with which It tends to endow
him.
That the museum should be so un
safe as to prevent new collections of
material being received. Is to be regret
ted. Not only must new material be
refused, but a great many collections
nre being constantly taken out. packed
In boxes, nnd Btored wherever they can
bo accommodated. Thus the geology
department Is seriously hampered In
Its work, but does not complain, as It
recognises the exigencies of tho situ
ation and the utter lmpossoblllty of
remedying them at the present time.
Tho demands of the other1 departments
have boon so great as to require imme
diate attention, and not until their
needs have been attendod to can the
interests of the museum be looked af
ter. Many of these departemnts will
find relief through tho new buildings,
and when the general condition of
congestion has been eased no time
will be lost In providing suitable quar
ters for the museum.
Attention Is called lo tho scientific
and technical examination to be held
by tho United States civil service com
mission, beginning October 1 Many
places aro open to University students
In tho engineering courses If they can
pass a creditablo examination in their
specialty. Among the places to be
competed for we note the following
Aid. coast and geodetic sunev. as-
slstant (scientific), department of ag-
rlculture; civil and electrical engineer,
departmental service; civil and electri
cal engineer. Philippine service, civil
engineer and draughtsman; computer,
coast and geodetic survey ; draughts
men; architectural (topographic) ju
nlpr architectural and topographic
land office survey, electrical onglneer
and draughtsman, irrigation engineer
and mechanical and electrical engin
eer. Students now carrying engineering
courses In tho University would be eli
gible to take examinations for some of
these positions, and any engineering
student who feels that he has the abll- j
lty, should not neglect this opportunity
to havo hlB name placed on the civil
service lint.
Cause for Rejoicing.
Every football pyrapathlzer should
congratulate himself over the result
of Saturdays game. Tho outcome docs
not necessarily prove that Grand Ip
laiid had a weak, poorly trained team
Inferior to that of last year. It Indi
cates, rather the wonderful Improve
ment of our team In every department
of the gniuo Blnco the Bomewhat un
satisfactory contest of the week before.
It shows tho effects of a week's hard
training upon a strong and promising
bunch of players, and proves that we
will havo a strong team this season,
and one that will bo a credit to our
Institution. Whether the team will be
as Ptrong as that of last year is not
fo much uppermost In the minds of
Its Fijpporters as to what sort of a
showing It will be able to make this
ycV.
The prelimlnaiy practice games are
over and the team must now settle
down to work out Its salvation against
teams from Institutions of its own cal
ibre. The 'game with South Dakota
will break the leb, although little trou
ble Is expected In disposing of the
northerners. This will be tho first
step lending up to a hard sorles of
games that will try Nebraska to the
utmost before the season Is over. Kan
sas, Missouri and Iowa are generally
strong, although Iowa's showing last
year was a most disappointing one to
her supporters. Knox and Illinois, es
pecially the latter, will be able to
give Nebraska the fight of her life,
and If vlctorj' over both of these teams
perches upon our banner, we will in
deed have reason to feel proud
Meanwhile the process of developing
now players and perfecting team work
goes steadily on, and when Nobraska
is called upon to exert her full strength
the opposing teams will find her ready.
Text-Books at Cost.
Attention has been called by dutsldc
parties to tho fact that there Is a law
existing thut lequlres tho board of re
genti to furnish text books to the ntu
dents of tho University ut tost As
man different attitudes have Uyen
taken upon this matter by leal auth
orities as the possibilities of the ques
tion permit. Some say that the law
has never been enforced and that the
legislature has made no specific appro
prlatlon for such a purpose, and not
until such an appropriation hnB been
made will the board of regents be able
to act In support of their position
they ask. how can the board of regents
undertake to provide tho books at
cost when no means has been placed
at their disposal for handling them?
But others with equal assurance main
tain that no special appropriation Is
necessary, ub tho monoy advanced by
the students would be sufficient to
meet all expenses And some aro suro
lhat the raoney ln tho temporary fund.
1 which Is for the purpose of coveting
any University need, can be made uso
of in this caso. but others say that
such a course would be Illegal. Thus
the matter stands. Tho governor may
be asked to act. but this Is as yet un
certain. No student has any objection
to securing text-books at cost, and the
outcome of the matter Is awaited with
