THE COLLEGE WOMAN'S PLATTS
BURG Four scholarships have been give
to the VasBar Nurses' Training camp
by the class of '13 of Vassar in mem
ory of their classmate, Anabel Rob
erts, who recently lo9t her life in
active service with the Presbyterian
Hospital Unit in France.
These scholaarshlps of $350 each
include expenses of the training camp
and of the subsequent two years
training at a hospital. The purpose
of these scholarships, the Vassar
Alumnae Recruiting Committee has
announced, is to enable some girls,
who might otherwise be prevented,
to take advantage of the opportunity
offered by the training camp.
Applications should be sent to Pro
fessor Herbert E. Mills, Dean of the
Camp. Professor Mills' address is
Vassar College, Poughkeepsle, New
York. College graduates of colleges
of high standing who are members
of the class of '18. or belong to
classes of the last ten years including
09, are eligible for this course. All
candidates for admission must be in
sound health.
The student fee. which the scholar
ship includes, is $95, and provides
for registration, board, room and
laundry. It covers the actual cost
of tuition and maintenance. Students
are asked to provide their own uniforms.
The camp opens Monday, June i
24th, and closes Friday, September
13th, 1918.

A beautiful display of a new turtle
group will occupy the central po
sltlon just Inside of the entranco
door of the museum.
Professor R. W. Ellis and Miss
Carrie Harbour have begun the work.
This is the first university to have
such an exhibit and this will be
the first group of the kind at
tempted by any museum.
A case twenty feet long, thirteen
feet wide and six feet deep will be
filled with square-tailed turtles, in
cluding specimens of old, middle-
aged, youifg. and eggs of the giant
fossil turtles, orthopygia or :se
braska. of which some twelve or
fifteen are ready on exhibition. Some
of these fossil turtle shells arc near
ly four feet long.
Their habitat will be shown by
the modeling with plastic scenes
representing the Sioux county bad
lands, the effect of which will make
a showy addition to the University
museum.
Acre Day
A statewide "Acre Day" is being
suggested as a means of increasing
Nebraska's food supply this summer.
Under the plan the men in the small
towns in the state would each rent an
acre of ground and agree to care for
it during the summer. One day every
week would be observed as "Acre
Dav" when the Mores and business
houses would close and every man
spend the day working on hla acre.
It is believed that during most o( the
summer buFiness Is not pressing
enough but that the business week
could be hhortened one day. Besides
helping out the food supply of tho na
tion, each man would derive a nice In
come from his summer's work. The
Bgrleulrural extension service sug
gests that some of the extra labor of
the towns might be made available to
the farmers, either by offering work
ers part time during ruh ,.NsN 0r
by rearranging town work so ,,,

A STATEMENT PREPARED FOR
MRS. McCLARY BY THE AT
TORNEY GENERAL
Europe, fighting with us, is cold,
hungry, wounded, and bleeding. Shall
we, warm, well fed, luxurious, and
sound, we, the gratuitous beneficiar
ies of all Europe's suffering and sac
rifice, not scant something of our
opulent abundance to give a little
to those who, giving their all, help
make our welfare and liberties se
cure? Our own at the front will soon be
likewise bleeding and suffering. Shall
we let ours be cold and hungry?
The greatest part of all we can
really do for our own and for our
allies in this titanic conflict is giving
the excess of what we produce over
what we consume. It is only the
wheat we raise and do not eat, the
clothing we make and do not wear,
the metals we mine and do not use,
that we can give to them and ours.
It is this which stands possibly be
tween them and starvation and de
feat, and between us and our peace,
security and liberties. We can in
crease that which we give, flrEt, by
producing more, second by consuming
less. No one is so humble that his
own making and his own saving do
not affect the result. If you and I
each eat a loaf less, Europe and ours
have two loaves more. Israel in her
travail in the Wilderness never more
truly suffered in whole for a single
sin than we as a nation and a
people will suffer now for a single
Mocker. It is your war and my war

Wednesday Discussions
On every Wednesday night since the
beginning of school, with few excep
tions, there has been a Men's Meeting
in the Association rooms in the Temple
from 7 to 8 o'clock. These meetings
are semi-religious in nature, but at the
same time practical and interesting.
The speakers have been prominent
business men. professors, alumni, and
students, every one with a message of
interest for University men.
The number of attendants at these
meetings have bepn gradually growing
and so much interest is being manifest
ed that some of Lincoln's most promi
nent men have consented to address
the meetings. From now on until the
end of school there will be a meeting
every Wednesday night, this Wdnes
day expected, due to vacation. The slo
gan is "Every Man Come and Bring a
Pal."
Will Open New Class
