ing recess, according to plans for a

mates as well as many of the older
women in the University. The party
will be held in Music hall Saturday
afternoon, January 5, and freshman
girls are expected to come dressed in

This party will be an unusual

lar of the campus social events and
the committee expects to have a full

Historical Society has
Unique Pipe Collection
Ono of the best and most complete
pipe collections In the west has Justi
been mounted by Curator Blackman!
in the Historical society rooms. There
are three distinct collections besides
OMAHA HAT FACTORY
Lincoln
many others, among which are an
opium pipe wheih was used in Lin
coin and another very different in
shape from the Philllppine Islands.
Most of the pipes are Indian pipes,
many taken from graves. They are
Siouxan-Catlinito or red pipestone
from Minnesota. Some are carved in
the shape of buffaloe or horse heads,
the workmanship being very fine.
(Some ary very large, others are so
small it seems impossible that they
could hold enough tobacco for a smoke.
'They were made by drilling both ways
through a piece of stone until the
drills met, then the oustide of the
stone was cut in any desirable fash
ion. It will probably never be known
how the Indian managed to bore
through these stones. In some cases
the stem is also made of pipestone
bored through the entire length.
Others of them have stems of young
ashwood twisted in various shapes.
Two of the finest pipes are too large
to mount but aro well worth seeing.
Both are of red pipestone, one beau-
Itifully carved and polished, the other
is inlaid with molten lead. Both have
long flat stems, decorated with beeds
and feathers.
Among the older pipes are some
made of clay and briar and one is a
steel tomahoc. There are also pipes
from Japan and the Philippines as
well as from our own plains. Most of
the pipes belong to the collections of
Morrill, Henderson, and Bristol or;
Omaha Charlie. I
College "Frats" Active in
France During the War
College fraternities will break
precedents which have limited ties
to American shores by backing up
there members who are in the trenches
of France. With every one of the
huge Greek letter organizations of the
universities confronted with heavy
losses in active membership because
of enlistment the sentiment of gradu
ates is that under war conumons
France is the place of the most ac
tive chapter. As a result the Ameri
can Overseas Fraternity association is
being formed. ,
Initial steps for the bringing to
gether of all of the leading fraterni
ties on this basis were taken at the
seventy-first annual convention of the
Delta Kappa Epsilon fraternity in this
city. D. K. E. has already taken steps
to open a branch house in Paris.
Among the fraternities which have
been asked to nominate members for
the executive committee are Alpha
Delta Phi, Phi Gamma Delta, Delta
phi, Phi Delta Theta and Sigma Phi.

Juniors Cut Out Formal
Aspect of Their Prom
The junior class and prom commit
tee decided at a meeting yesterday to
change the character of the junior
party from a formal to an informal.
This action was taken following' the
resolution made by the Innocents so
ciety urging that the class change the
customary formal prom, 'which they
were intending to carry out this year
to a less pretentious affair.
The juniors intend to comply with
the spirit that has been expressed by
the Pan-Hellenic council, which is to
discourage all forms of extravagant
social expenditure, and at the same
time have a party that will carry with
it the old time atmosphere.
Students Send Awgwan
to Soldiers for Christmas
The Awgwan management asks that
all subscribers who have not yet re
ceived their copies of the Christmas
Awgwan call for them before leaving
for home at Station A. There are
many who have not called for this last
issue.
A large number of students have
been purchasing extra copies of
Awgwan for their Chrsitmas boxes
which they are sending to Cornhusker
soldiers at the front or in the train
ing camps. Other students who wish
to follow this plan may secure copies
at the student activities' office. The
price for single copies is 15 cents.
