Four Day of Rush Past Slight In-
crease Over That f was
Year
After four days of bard work and
worry on the part of both students and
faculty, registration has at last been
completed. Freshmen as well as upper
classmen are glad that their trials
Tiata come to an end. everyone is
glad to have a. chance to rest their
weary feet before classes begin.
The number of students this year
reaches the number of 2.320. This in
cludes the College of Medicine at
Omaha. It is an Increase of 164 over
last year's registration.

MUSEUM GETS CORD BEDSTEAD
Came from State of Connecticut.
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.

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.

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.
