- THE AFTERMATH.
The elections are over and the period of reconstruction will now
set in. That reconstruction should be for the benefit of the Univers
ity. Factions, which at election time are bound to be set up, should
be done away with and the joint efforts of every one should be de
voted to the building up of a greater University spirit. The football
team, the coining basketball team, the spring track men should be
aided by the amalgamation of factions and the joint efforts of the
students to push the athletic teams and other University activities
to the fore. The University faction takes the same place in politics
at the University as the political party takes in national affairs. The
old ingrown idea of fighting a man because he is a member of another
faction or party is going out of date in national affairs and the up-to-date,
deep-thinking, honest student will do well to aid in breaking up
once for all the factional spirit that is a detriment to a school when
t splits the students and lessens their power as an organized body
to help the school. Those who have lost will do well to forget and
those who have won will be an aid to the University if they make
their new positions an asset rather than a liability to the school.
OUR LIBRARY.
At the beginning of each year University officials find that a
large majority of students have failed to interpret what purpose the
library at the University serves.
The library is a place to study. It has no other purpose to serve.
It is not a place to hold social gatherings nor is it a trysting spot
for those whose thoughts turn to romance.
The books on the reference shelves are for reference inside the
library only. They are not to be slipped out. The evil of taking
these books without authority is two-fold, first because the act is a
breach of honor, and secondly, it injures the student whose work
has to suffer because of his inability to get hold of the needed books.
Everybody should pull together to make the library exclusively a
place to study.
BASIS FOR EFFECTIVE WORK.
The function of the University is to train the students for all
kinds of living. The physical well-being of each and every student
cannot wisely be neglected because it constitutes the basis for
effective work in the class rooms.
Today a new emphasis is being laid upon physical education
the building of the body into a high powered engine. It is an
accepted law of nature that it takes a sound mind in a sound body
to develop the highest degree of efficiency in your every-day life.
Gymnasium and military drill are required of the lower classes
and so at Nebraska the matter of physical education, is most vital to
the upperclassmen. Students during their . high school days as a
rule took an active part in one or more of the major games, but at
the University instead of a large number continuing their practices
they become torpid and shun exercise like a plague.
The old proverb, "It is not work, but worry, that kills men" is
applicable to University students. Whole hearted play is the best
antidote for worry. An hour or two of exercise in the gym, hiking
or on the tennis court drives out all depressing thoughts and puts
new vitality into your being. Healthful students thoroughly enjoy
their work and are gaining the greatest maximum of benefit from
their efforts.
Vigorous exercise pays large dividends by producing vigorous
bodies. Every student can well afford to spend regularly an hour or
two each day to bodily exercise. Pep and enthusiasm is always evi
dent In a student with a strong physique. Time Baved from play js
doubly wasted, so that the most profitable use of one or two hours
each day is to spend them in some form of enjoyable exercise.
DEVELOPMENT OF RELIGIOUS EDUCATION.
The banquet planned by the Committee of Two Hundred to be
held next Tuesday evening at the Scottish Rite Temple, will be a
unique and influential University rally of a thousand students. The
announced objective will be to interest students in opportunities of
religious education offered In Lincoln and on the University campus.
But the influence of such a gathering of faculty and students will go
far beyond this announced purpose. Any movement in the University
which helps students to meet their own personal and social problems
and to produce concrete thinking about ideal things is bound to
strengthen the aim of education in the development of strong char
acter and useful citizens. The speakers on the toast list include an
influential alumnus, a leading faculty man and John Timothy Stone
of Chicago. Dr. Stone is known throughout the college world as a
man of unusual capactly in giving to stc'enta nn inspiring message
full of human Interest

Colleges Unable
To Take Care Of
Great Attendance
Prosperity of Country Reflected
in This Year's School
Population.
WASHINGTON. Reports from
throughout the Unite States are to
the effect public schools, colleges and
universities, have found it impossible
to caie tor the great number of stu
dents who clamor for admission to
these institutions. Washington offi
cialdom, discussing this situation, sees
a healthy sign in this intense desire
on the part of the young people of
the United States to get an education.
This condition has existed, accord
ing to school and college heads, since
llie war. It has resulted in attention
being centered as never before upon
the need for improved school facili
ties, adequate compensation for in
structors, and the making of such pro
vision for the future as will enable
all who desire to improve their minds
to be given that opportunity, and
under the most favorable auspices
possible.
Among those seeking admission to
American institutions of learning is
Jound an increasing number of stu
dents from foreign countries. The
Orient, even, is furnishing its quota.
As an example, her royal highness,
the Trincess Tarhata, niece of the
Sultan of Sulu, visited Washington re
cently on her way to attend an in
terior college in "Illinois. In response
to a question, the Princess said she
selected the college to which she was
going out of a desire to acquire as
much as possible of American train
ing and ideas. Princess Tarhata an
nounced she desired to be known in
Ujis country as Miss Kiram.

Have adopted it we cannot
Help being very sorry for

Are afflicted with freckles
And dare not brave the elements

SPECIAL STUDY ROOM
FOR MODERN LANGUAGES
A special study room has been
opened this week for modern lan
guages and English. This Is room
306 in University Hall, formerly occu
pied by the Legislative Reference
Bureau. Modern language lexicons
will be available here for student use.
Encyclopedias and dictinaries are also
provided and very shortly many
books used for reference in English
will be placed in this room. The
classical library has been moved from
U 214 and placed in an alcove here,
also.
The general reading room in the
main library has for years been en
tirely inadequate and the new study
room will partly relieve this condi
tion and will also give the students
better facilities for study and read
ing. Mrs. Pickup, formerly connected
with the Department of English, will
be in charge of the room which will
be open from 9 to 12 and from 1 to 5
daily except Saturday. Hours on that
day will be from 9 to 12.
College World
Bethany College.
Fraternities and sororities have
breathed their last at Bethany Col
lege. The faculty of the institution a
short time ago recommended to the
Board of Directors that definite ac
tion be taken in the matter. The
board immediately called a meeting
and ruled that fraternities and sorori
ties among the students and teachers
of Bethany should be prohibited.
Freshmen Men Do Not Suffer Alone
at Ohio.
Mysterious proceedings began at
Oxley Hall early Tuesday, when at 3 !
o'clock a. m. the Freshmen girls were
suddenly roused from their slumber
by the Sophomores.
They were ordered to dress and
were led blindfolded by their superiors
outside the building to the rear lawn.
Here they were fed clammy, slippery
spaghetti, dried bread and raw meat.
The blindfolded girls were con
ducted across the campus into the
woods. The Sophomores handed out
flashlights and disappeared, leaving
the innocents in the woods. Ohio
State Lantern.
Mike the Mining Engineer.
Says that if there were more in
stitutions like the Missouri School of !
Mines, and fewer dress suit colleges,
like some he'd hate to mention, there
wouldn't be much probability of a
coal shortage this winter. Missouri

Feel my Scotch cropping
out today, and little won
der why when I took a
stroll through the second
floor such bargains.
They're having a sale all
this week and really, I
can Just see myself all
done up in a new outfit
and still be tea-ing regu
larly till next allowance
time!
You should see the good
looking hats! I'm always
looking at ones I can't
possibly afford, but then I
figure it strengthens one's
character to be abe to re
sist sort of a "Lead me
into temptation but de
liver me from Evil" policy.
This time tho, I didn't
have to be heroic, because
every single hat priced at
$25 or more was reduced
20 per cent. Think of it.
It sounds about as plaus
ible as a political speech
to promise you perfectly
wonderful black silk hose
for $2.49, but come and
see for yourself. It's just
because they have some
tiny imperfections that
don't make a speck of
difference in looks or
wear. Some are silk clear
to the top and have
Tointex heels; others have
lisle tops. I compared
the ones I got the other
day with a $5 hose from
regular stock, and if any
thing, mine were heavier.
How's that for a bargain?
Who needs another frock?
I found a lot of the new
est ones marked at 20 per
cent off. There are some
good ooking one of tri
cotine for campus wear
neat, not gaudy you know.
Then there's one of cinna
mon brown Duvetyn that
woud sure catch Ed's eye!
It's all fussed up with a
braided lattice work effect
and looks altogether like
that oft-quoted million
dollars. There are lots of
silk frocks, too the sort
you'll need for Informal
travel among the socially
elite. Some are sweet
simple and girlish; others
a little more subtle
m
style.
Which Is your
type?
Here's one more J. b.
and that's about shoes.
Did you ever stop to think
how important your shoes
are? How many girls you
see whose whole appear
ance is gummed by an un
gainly walk. It's a result
of their shoes often times,
too. Of course one
doesn't need to wear old
mother comforts in order
to step around gracefully,
but you do need to wear
a good fitting shoe like a
Cousins or a Dorotny
Dodd. ir you want low
shoes, by the way, they're
yours this week at 25 rCT
cent less.
So raying, she pletl
slipped out of the column
until Friday.
