VESTED INTERESTS
IN THE TEMPLE
We have been aware, ever since we
began the discussion of the Temple
as a. Student Union, of the fact that
there are certain vested interests to
be considered. The Woman's club,
the University School of Music, and
even members of our own faculty
were all Instrumental In founding and
building the Temple. They have prop
erty rights that cannot be overlooked.
"A house divided against itself can
not stand." Nor can a building owned
by several organizations be of use to
them, when each is large enough fot
the whole, and when each Is desirous
of using it.
Such now is the situation as re
gards the Temple. It was constructed
primarily as a building for student
life. Although at first there was
room for outside activities, the stu
dents now need the Temple and
more. No campus organization can
get use 'of any room in the Temple
If some outside party has spoken for
It in advance.
Under these circumstances, we be
lieve that the university should close
the Temple to any activity not a part
of student, life. The vested interests
can be" paid a Just compensation for
their property rights. The Temple Is
primarily the property of the univer
sity. The day when the university
would need it all could have been
easily foreseen by these interests, and
they can have no objection to its con
scription, when they receive proper
compensation. The university owes
such action to the students.
When these things are done, the
founding of a Union will be far less
complex.
AN ERROR
' Due to the fact, that The Nebras
kan staff was unable to take charge
of setting up yesterday's paper, sev
eral errors occurred. Among them
was the misplacing of the two follow
ing editorials. We, therefore, take
the privilege of running them again,
this time In their proper place. We
believe that the subject matter in
volved Justifies us in so doing.
THE REGIMENTAL SUPPER
Those who have observed military
drill this year report a better spirit
toward this line of work on the part
of freshmen than ever before. There
are many reasons why this may be
true, but we re inclined to believe
that the progress of events has shown
that war Is not entirely impossible,
Years ago freshmen regarded drill as
a great task. They considered it use
less, as they believed that the world
had seen its last great war. But the
situation in Europe has shown that
drill is not useless.
However that may be, one thing is
certain: anything which makes drill a
occupation, without
destroying its usefulness, is to be en
couraged. Drill will become less of a
bore if the officers and men were bet
ter acquainted. It would be moro
pleasant If the men were to meet
oftener as a regiment at play.
For these reasona, we believe that
the regimental supper now being
planned by the officers is deserving of
the support of everyone in the depart
ment. It will create better fellow
ship; it will make the officers and pri
vates better acquainted with each
other as men. We trust that the event
will become an annual tradition.
Every officer and every private
should buy a ticket to the regimental
supper, even if it means some sac
rifice. THE LEAGUE OF THE
SECOND GENERATION
We are quite pleased with the pro
gress this League is making. It has
received the favorable comment of
various faculty and alumni members.
But we had hoped for a greater re
sponse from the students. This or
ganization must necessarily begin
with the students. Without their sup-
nort it will be impossible. Let us
know what you think about it, wheth
er you are eligible to membership or
not. If you are so eligible, give us
your name.

The business manager of the Aw

manager today. -If he had looked
very hard he could have seen him
circulating around almost anywhere
on the campus.
Somebody seems to think that rain
coats hang on coat-racks to pick off,
just like apples or cherries. A per
fectly good coat was taken from The
Nebraskan office this morning and has
not been returned. Taking raincoats
is a rather bad habit and might lead
to trouble for someone, someday, you
know.
STOUTIES, READ THIS!
You can talk of petting skinny,
Of fasting and all that;
But it isn't half so hard, my friends,
As it is to put on fat.
I've eaten everything in sight,
I've laughed until I cried,
I've done just everything I know,
I'm still Just bones and hide.
Kind friends, if you are burdened
With the flesh for which I pine.
If you know how you got that way,
Oh, please, drop me a line.
WHY, GIRLS, WHY?
Oh! the plate glass windows! What
would the girls do without them?
Have you ever noticed a girl when
she passes a shining store window?
Jf she is with a man, she will shyly
glance at the reflection of herself,
pat a curl into place, or straighten
her collar. But if she is alone, the
window will suddenly appear to hold
many things of vital interest to her.
She will stop and "study" each ar
ticle very diligently, and then when
she has taken a thorough Inventory of
them (or rather herself), she heaves
a sigh of contentment, and moves
on.
TOO BAD
When I sit in ibis not stuffy office.
And see all the people go by,
I think of the day that is coming,
When I no more shall sigh.
For 'tis six more weeks till the term
ends,
Six more weeks till it's done;
A few last hours twhlch i; cannot
mend,
And then I'm going hum.
Mrs. F. D. McVey, president of the
north-central section of the Associa
tion of Collegiate Alumnae, and wife

Phi, and of Mrs. Frank H. Woods.
Mrs. McVey is a member of the Minne

Lincoln on her way to Omaha, where
she addressed the Omaha branch of
the Association of Collegiate Alumnae
on Saturday.' She occupied a box at
the Junior play, "The Man of the
Hour," Friday night, as the guest of
Miss Louise Pound. Mrs. McVey ex
pects to be in Chicago this week, to
attend the meeting of the national
council of the A. C. A. at the LaSalle
hotel.
The designs for the new terminal
building for this city have been
changed on account of the rapid rise
in the price of steel. Steel has risen
150 per cent since last July. A type
of re-enforced concrete will be used.
The university was fortunate to have
secured contracts for the steel for the
Bessey and chemistry buildings before
the advance in price took place.
