appear with a new and refreshing
policy. Such Is the way of the college
dally, and to this decree the outgoing
staff bows in acknowledgment of Its
own shortcomings. Exit the villian.
enter the hero. And so on to the end
of the play. With each urtain the
scene changes. And in the finale it
all ends well this we trust.
In this last act, the staff has had
the pleasure of enumerating many
progressive changes on the campus.
To start, It was a treat to chronicle
the successful Innings of the football
season. After came debate, when
again It was a fortunate car tor the
Scarlet. In the meantime, the fresh
man class has now become a working
unit in the system. Ushered across
tile threshold by the Chancellor, the
Innocents, and the Black Masques,
they have seemingly caught a smat
tering or the spirit which It ts their
privilege to share.
All during the semester there has
been an under current of student opin
ion, breaking out at times in class or
ganizations, when plans have been
suggested for the more direct super
vision of affnirs by class boards of
managers and commissioners. At last
this has taken the form of a demand
for the student council. The develop
ment of tills belongs properly to the
coming semester. Hut in all fairness,
here Is the place In which to acknowl
edge the effectiveness of the i o-ctl
Influence. The feminist movement has
been by for the most noticeable feature
of the semester. Thru the agency of
the Girls' club, the girls are coming
to know n Nebraska spirit for the
co-eds - a spirit which has not been
manifest before.
During the next semester the prob
lems of the single tax. self govern
ment, spring baseball class politics,
campus location, and divers others
will occupy the center stage. The se
mester past has been a live one the
semester-to-be gives promise of results
Instead of beginnings. All of which
makes good "copy." The Nebraskan
will be in a fortunate position to re
flect and further student sentiment.
Just before the curtain, the editor
would speak briefly in appreciation
of the work of the reportorial and as
sociate staff thruout the semester. A
comparison with other dailies tails to
show many particulars in which it
would have been bettered. There has
been the best of feeling and a sense
of comradeship.
The next semester will find the staff
scattered, several not to be com. txd
with the paper. For promotion did
not come to several wbrv.se work
w-W inefTT It. But 'the "Rag" spirit
r
has outlived several administrations,
in the ranks of the scribblers, and it
will continue to thrive still.

of. World's Great Systematic
Botanist.
The Si andlnanc Ian c bib met last
Saturday night. Dean flessey gave an
inspiring lecture on Linneus, the great
Swedish botanist. The lecture was dl
vided Into three parts, a short bio
graphical sktch, a resume of his most
Important works, and an estimate of
his position In the world of science.
In 1763 Linneus published the epo h
mnklng treatise Species IMantnrum.
Although it cannot be said that the
world in 1707, the year in which
Linneus was born, did not know any
filing oboiit botany, the little that it
did know was fragmentary and unsys
tematlzed. It remained for Linneus
to systematize the science.
Dean Hessey characterized Linneus
as the father of botany, the greatest
botanist the world has ever produced.
As long as the world stands, botanists
will pilgrimage to the little hamlet
in which he was born and be grateful
to the people which reared him.
