Filipino Relic Are Expected In a Short Time . During the cummer the State His torical Society Museum added several relics to their already large collec tion. One, a cord bedstead of great age, is of more than ordinary inter est. The frame would scarcely make a favorable comparison to the more less portentious ones of todayl Instead' of a spring cords are strung crossways from side to side. That the people of today would find it difficult to accus tom themselves to luxuries of this kind goes without saying. This relic came from Connecticut. Dr. Gillmore expects a great ship ment of Filipino relics in a short time. Some of them are already en route. This will give the museum quite an oriental appearance. 1915 HONOR MEN Thirty-Seven Won the Coveted N" Highest Honor In Univer sity Athletics During the last school year, thirty seven men won the coveted honor of wearing an "N.

HARVARD PROFESSOR VISITSNEDRASKA S A FORMER OMAHA MAN NOW WITH PEABODY MUSEUM HERE ON RESEARCH SURVEY Will Travel In the Countries of Abys sinia and Egypt A Leader In the Field of Archaeological Exploration Dr. Fred H. Sterns of Peabody Museum. Harvard University, was in conference with A. E. Sheldon, Secre tary of the Nebraska Academy of Sciences, on the publication of a bul letin of the Academy giving results of some of his researches on the Nebras ka Ethnological Survey. Dr. Stearns is an Omaha man, hav 1ns: originally come from that city where he became greatly interested in archaeological work by his association with Mr. Robert H. Gilder. After graduation from Oberlin College, Ohio, he became an assistant In Harvard University, doing archaeological col lecting. He has been spending the past summer investigating evidences of prehistoric people in Nebraska and Kansas along the Missouri river, and has made a number of interesting finds. Upon his return to Harvard, Dr. Sterns expects to prepare for an ex ploration in Abyssinia, He will first go to Egypt where he expects to study the Arabic and other native languages. After he has mastered these to some degree, he will proceed to Abyssinia to collect archaeological material. Should, however, the tribal war and the famine which is now raging in that country still continue, Dr. Sterns will remailn In Egypt and do research work there instead. Dr. Sterns will be gone a year and his trip will prob ably prove not only interesting, but also be spiced with Oriental adven tures. Dr. Sterns is a quiet unassuming man, one whom no one would accuse of being one of the leaders in the field of archaeological explorations. Yet he has already done more in this particular line than any other man In America today. A. H. Webb of Salina. Kam, a for mer student at the University and now Senior In the College of Medicine at Omaha, spent Friday in Lincoln. GLAD TO REACH HOME AGAIN Professor Virtue Speaks Will of Chi cagoGave Two Courses There This Summer Professor George O. Virtue, of the Economics department has Just re turned from his work in the Univer. sitv of Chicago, where he gave two courses in Economics in the Graduate college. He exnresset a very good opinion of that institution. This summer they had a banner enrollment of 4,400 stu dents. The University seems to be a melting pot for students and teachers from all quarters. He says there is a religious spirit there which gives a character and tone to the campus life which is entirely lacking here. How ever, Professor Virtue states that ne is very glad to be back. miler.
