    Rag Reporter Visits Farm
Campus and Is Infatuated
"I visited the Farm Tuesday morn
ing. It was the first time I had ever
been there. I am carried away with
what I saw there and don't be sur
prised If I should give up my course
In the Arts and Science College and
start In taking home economics, se
Ing and the like, tor I LOVE THEM.
It we'd Just move the "Rag- out
there, then I'd be happy I could take
cooking n'everything and still have
time for a little work on the college
daily." Such Is Ihe version of a Ne
braskan reporter who made her first
trip to the State Farm campus of tha
University of Nebraska this week.
"Teh little model farm was adorable.
I'd like to use It as a play ground.
A sign on the fence said: 'Do not
go Into the buildings.' But they are
so tiny I wonder who could ro Into
them. The little house ia even partly
finished inside. I know I could fur
nlsh It adorably.
Buildings Impress Her.
"Another thing I liked were the
buildings. They are all so new so
speck and span n'everything. The
air out there seems so bracing but
really It Is pretty solitary and I no
ticed that even the few street cars
that came and "went" at Indefinite
intervals made quite a commotion.
"When we went Into the office of
Principal Bradford of- the School of
Agriculture, I certainly was surprised
to see Glen Foe in there. He has
charge of- the Student Activities at
the Farm, you know. He was so nice
to show us around and when I was
Introduced to Harriett Muneke in tfee
Home Economics Building anA she
showed me al lthe wax work, design
ing exhibits and classes in action, I
thought she ought to get the Chicago
Tribune fifty-dollar politeness prise.
"You know they make dresses on
forms In there and when I saw a co
ed tripping lightly into the working
room with Miss Form on her shoulder
I-wondered whether this was a class
in gymnatlstics

largest and finest of the four-tuskers
yet found, a like specimen of which no
other museum boasts ownership, was
added to teh collections in the Museum
last week and is now on exhibition in
the diceratherium group on the first
floor. The skull, the genus and spe
cies of which are both new,, named
by the University of Nebraska, was
found near Berge, Cherry County, Ne
braska. It is a complete restoration
of the Genob?lodon lulli. The pre
paration o the skull was largely the
work of Miss Carrie A. Barbour. It
is a part of the collections of the

Dr. E. H. Barbour and Professor
Schramm visited Omaha last week and
packed fourteen boxes of specimens,
given to the State Museum by the
Omaha City Library. The collections

semi-gems, ores, Indian relics, bows
and arorws, pipestone pipes, axes,

the Doctors Everett. The State Mu

Schedule
Coach Faces Hardest
With Green Team.
STATE COLLEGE, Pa. When It
comes to hard football schedules the
one arranged for the Penn State .elev
en next fall will Just about take the
prize, among eastern colleges at least.
Following the two preliminary games,
seven of the toughest kind of bat
ties are awaiting Hugo Bezdek's ag
gregation and the question la whether
or not the Blue and White team can
go through them successfully.
Ten varsity men are lost this year,
so that Besdek will have practical!
a preen team with which to lace the
hardest schedule ever arranged Toi
Peen State, lloweve., the'popula
coach was faced by almost the same
situation this fall and he developed
a team that was undefeated. Everj
one realizes the enormity of the task
confronting the "miracle man" next
fall, but there is a feeling that "Bez"
will be able to rise to the occasion.
The available material will be In the
rough, but it will be the best raw
material uncovered for several yearc,
so while next year's team may en
counter one or two defeats. It Is sure
to rank with the leaders.
A look at the array of big games
facing Penn State is enough o give
any coach gray hair. North Carolina,
vtv Harvard. Georgia Tech., Car-
T.ch'. N.vy nd Pitt " b
met on successive weeks., and If Bez
dek's eleven can earn an even break,
they will be doing well. The hardest
tost will probably come during im
last two weeks in October when Har
,ard and Georgia Tech are played on
successive Saturdays, the former al
Cambridge and the latter in New York
City. Then following the Pennsyl
vanla day game at home, the team
winds up the season with two mor
hard trips, meeting Navy in rhtl.iaei
phla, and Pitt in Pittsburgh. The
big home games will be with Lehigh
on alumni home-coming day and Wi
Carnegie Tech on Pennsylvania

The Daily Nebraskan recently re
ceived a copy of the Publications of
the Nebraska State Historical Society,
Volume XIX, handsomely bound and
with the seal of the organization on
tno cover. As a frontispiece, the book
contains a picture of Edward Rose
water, founder of the Omaha Bee.
The book was capably edited by Al
bert Watklns, historian of the society
and was published in 1919.
"Volume XIX contains some of the
most important historical material
published by the Nebraska Society.
The articles upon Indians and Indian
wars, upon European elements in our
Nebraska population, the reminis
cences of 'early Nebraskans, and not
least among them, the descriptions of
early Nebraska found in the testi
mony of the famous election contest
of 1S59, give views of social status of
early settlements not found elese-w-nere."
(Addison E. Sheldon, super
intendent, in preface to bok.)
Ertenslve Footnotes.
"In the footnotes are found a re
markable collection of critical infor
mation acquired by ertensive research
and correspondence and which re
quired very careful scrutiny and com
parison. O- A'Til 25, 1917, the Society's
board of directors authorized the pub
lication of a historical magazine, and
accordingly the first number of "Ne
braska History and Record of Pioneer
Days" was issued in 191S, February!
The present volume contains many
apt Illustrations, which were afforded
by the very extensive collection of
photographs of that class now owned
by or accessible to the Historical
Society. This pictorial history will
continue to be an important feature of
the society's historical publications."
Some of the noteworthy illustra
tions are pictures of the parade
eround at Ft. McPherson, massacre
cannon, site of old Oto and Missouri
Indian village, and the Bohemian
members of the Nebraska Legislatures.
The book shows in an outstanding
manner the painstaking research and
careful proof-reading of the editor of
the volume.
