It Is tho only University organization, which all Ne braska girls can join If they desire. Women members of tho faculty aro also- ellgiblo. It tries to further the Interests of .all Nobraska co-eds, by gotting them acquainted with each other, by caring lor them when they aro sick, and by looking out for them In every way. A feo of twenty-five cents a year is 1ST charged for membership. This year an active canvass of all Unl girls was made, resulting In about two hundred F- now members Rush for Tickets.

Tho University Y. M. C. A. has sot aside a small room at its headquar ters in the Tomplo building, for tho uso of any or all studont commltteos. This room will at all times, when not in uso by a scheduled commltteo, bo open for uso by any commltteo, which happens to bo In a "pinch." It Is a well known fact that stu dent committees ofton have a lot of trouble finding a room In which to meet. Trips to the office of tho su perintendent of grounds and buildings have at tlmeB brought little or no sat isfaction because no rooms in campus buildings wore unused at that partic ular hour. Tho need thoroforo for rooms which aro at all times open for committee uso will In a limited way bo mot by tho Y. M. C. A. venture In setting asldo this ono room. Atchison Moved Out. TIiIb room Is tho ono located at tho southwest corner of tho association quarters. It was used last year aB tho office of tho state studont secre tary, and has been used this fall by Guy Atchison, secretary of tho stu dent employment bureau. Hereafter Atchison's desk will bo out In tho big room. While this one room will not bo ade quate to meet all requirements, it will help to solve tho problem. It will bo tho policy of tho association to pro vide further public accommodations fr tho studont body in general as fast as possible. This room will bo open at all times to any student committee. MAXEY AT CONVOCATION LAW PROFESSOR DI8CU88E8 SIT UATION IN REGARD TO TRIPOLI. MEEKER SLOWLY IMPROVES. Will Not Be Able to Return to His Work This Semester. SOPHS ELECT OFFICERS David Meeker, who was a prominent candidate for sophomore president until ho was talced seriously sick, has been discharged from St. Elizabeth's hospital and Is now convalescing at his home at Imperial, Nob. On account of having lost so much time from his studies, ho will not return to school till tho second Bom estor begins. Dr. Maxoy gavo a comprohonslve lecturo on tho Trlpolitan situation at convocation- yostorday. Ho dlBcussod tho war In Us broader significance of International relations. Tho cauBe datos back to tho confer ences of Paris and Berlin, for tholr Intervention In Turkoy's behalf against Russia, all tho European poworB ex cept Italy appropriated ono of Tur koy's possessions. Italy now wIbIiob to take Tripoli. The other countries cannot consistently Interfere, as Italy Is only doing what thoy"dld. Never theless Dr. Maxoy thinks Italy Is to bo censured. Thinks Italy Will Succeed. In tho Judgmont of Dr.. Maxoy, Italy will succeed In taking possession of Tripoli, will hold It, and may pay Tur key a small amount for hor loss of torrltory. Tho most serious result of tho war may bo In Turkey itself. It may bo tho moans of overthrowing tho young TurkB who recontly camo Into powor. This would bo very lamentable bo causo they havo really striven to ralso tho ethical standards of Turkoy. It is to bo noticed, In comparison with for mer disturbances, that there havo boon no massacroB of Italians or outrages so characteristic of Turkey. This Is a sign of progress. International Peace Affected. Tho consummation of International peace Is seriously Interrupted by this situation. If a war could so oaslly arlso between two powers without any real cauBe whatever, It would seem to postpone a permanent poaco between tho stronger, moro hostile nations. Dr. Mnxey's talk proved quite pop ular and a surprisingly largo number of students proved tholr Interest In other things besides football and tho next dance.
