A collection of ten thousand Indian
relics, which equals in historical
value and rarity any American dis
covery, was recently acquired by the
Nebraska Historical Society from
Mark E. Zimmerman of White Cloud.
Kansas, and is being prepared for
permanent exhibition by E. E. Black
man, curator of the Historical So
ciety museum. Twenty years were
spent by Mr. Zimmerman in gather
ing these specimens.
Most of the relics he dug out of
Nebraska soil, and some he bought
in neighboring states. Among these
scarce remains are many examples
of Indian art stone pipes, arrows,
pendants and pottery found near
Rulo, in the southeast corner of Ne
braska. They rank with the best
discoveries previously made in the
valley of the Ohio river. One of
the rarest objects of the group is a
piece of Indian pottery of which only
one other piece has been found in
this state.
Great Variety of Arrows
The flints range from small buf
falo arrow chips, scarcely an inch
long, to large arrow-heads four or
five inches in length, and heavy
tomahawk blades. There are a num
ber of unusually remarkable knife
xorms. The blades are chipped so
admirably that it seems a marvel,
says Mr. Blackman, that anything so
artistic could have been found in the
western plains region.

AWS expresses itself in prints, in the deep
V of the new neck, the soft gathers of the
bishop sleeve, the half-belt that de6nes
the slim hip and divides a one-piece frock
so that it has a two-piece effect Among
the new prints are the floral in very wild
flower designs or prim English patterns;
the modernistic with distorted triangles,
cubes, parallelograms, squares, etc; the
kinetic, expressing motion through zig
zag lines, leaping flames, showers of dots
or squares; the pictorial, portraying sport

ment in the shape of a huge battle
axe of granite, much too heavy to
have been wielded by any one ex
cept a giant, is a part of the collec
tion. The slab of stone is faithfully
hewn in resemblance of the smaller
types used as weapons. Several of
these large axe blades have been
found in various parts of the United
States. The heaviest, which weighs
eighteen pounds, was found in Iowa,
where the one in the Zimmerman
group was also discovered.
No scientific explanation for their
existence has been given. They never
could have been used in battle as
they are entirely too heavy to be
managed effectively. That they
were used in religious ceremonies
based on old legends in which four
gods descended from heaven and beat
with huge battle axes the chaos of
mud and water into the present land
and water formations, is the expla
nation offered by Mr. Blackman.
Pipes Puzzle Scientists
Long Indian peace-pipes and others
for ordinary use are included in the
collection. They are made of cat
linite clay which the Indians used to
dig out of the ground in a soft state
while it could be easily carved. Ex
posure to the air for several years
turned the stone hard. The fields
in the North where the stone is
found were considered neutral
ground by common consent of the
tribes, and even deadly enemies in
war could peacefully come to the
region and hew out their peace
pipes. The only catlinite found in Amer
ica is red. Some of the pipes, how
ever, including one in the Zimmer
man collection, are black. This has
been a source of much investigation
by Indian archeologists, as the only
known black catlinite is in Japan,
and it is hardly possible that the
Indians got it from there.
Another article made of the black
catlinite is a game device called "Di-
coidal" of which seven specimens
have been found in Nebraska.
Further Explorations Planned
That the region where the relics
were found was a populous Indian
center is indicated by the quantity
of remains. Mr. Blackman, in his
exploration work there last summer,
had only to dig a trench a few feet
deep to find at frequent intervals
cistern-like caches in which he un
coverea Dones, trinkets, arrows,
knives, and various other character
istic Indian relics.
A further exploration of the par
ticular site where the remains are
thickest will be made this spring by
Mr. Blackman as soon as weather
permits extended field investigations
The vote was taken at a mass
meeting on February fourth. Before
expressing their preference the men
listened to a debate between Vernon
Mcllraith, '26, in favor of compulsory
drill, and George Simpson, '25, who
spoke against it.
As soon as the meeting was called
to order the cadets atempted to
block the vote. A member of Scab
bard and Blade, military fraternity,
gained the floor and made a motion
that the referendum be not held. An
amendment was quickly appended by
the opposing forces to the effect that
the vote be taken. Following a
standing vote which revealed only
thirty cadet officers and a few stu
dents desirous of calling off the
vote.
Two days before the referendum
efforts were made to head off an ex
pression of student opinion. A ca
det officer, member of the Student
Council moved that the referendum
be dropped As only nine mem
bers were present the motion carried
five to four. On the following day
the Council called a special session
and voted to go on with the project
by a five to seven vote. Most of the
cadet officers appeared in chapel in
uniform. On the evening before, the
military department sought to have
the college band attend the meeting
to play, but failed.

CHURCH CRITICIZES
WAR DEPARTMENT
Iowa Women Make State-Wide Issue
Against Military Training
In Schools There
(New Student News Sen.oe)
Severe criticism of the war depart
ment found expression in resolutions
adopted by a state convention of the
Church of Christ at Des Moines, on
February sixth. They declared that
the War Departments' program tends
to develop a "war psychology." One
resolution registered emphatic "dis
approval of any activity on the part
of the War Department in the exten
sion of military training into any
school or college in the nation."
The association further petitioned
Senators Albert B. Cummins and
Smith W. Brookhart to "use their in
fluence in the national Congress to
gain enactment of such legislation
as will carry out the spirit of these
resolutions."
Following the action of the minis
ters of the Disciples Church, promi
nent women connected with the state
Parent-Teachers' Association took
steps to make a state-wiae issue
against military training in any insti
tution of learning in Iowa.
Immediately the women of the
State American Legion auxiliary
went on record as opposing "peace-at-any-price
pacifism,"

Twelve censors sit in iudfrment
deciding (what is moral entertain
ment for the town folks of Waco, the
students of Baylor. In their real tc
purge plays of corruption the arbi
ters sometimes despoil the plays of
continuity, of significance. John
son's editorial, "Board of Censors
vs. The People," decried this artist
ic sabotage.
Dispossession of the editor was ef
fected by the Board of Publications,
composed of the four professors and
three students. Soon after its pub
lication the Board called upon John
son to "explain" his editorial. John
son refused saying, "I feel that there
is no explanation due. I was certain
as I could be that I voiced the opin
ion of the student body and I
am even more certain now that I did
so, as I have have many commenda
tions from students in the stand I
took, and not one against it. The
subject of the editorial was certain
ly eligible to be discussed in The Lar
iat." Again the Board called upon the
editor. Johnson offered to resign
in a week, the Board insisted that he
do so immediately, "then declared
the position of Editor-Manager of
the Daily Lariat vacant.

The young girl finds herself in sympathy
with the modem spirit, the violent color
and the sense of motion conveyed by the
scattered designs of the "krw prints which
keep up a running fire of designs, colors
and arrangements for borders, robes and
panels. Their designs turn to modern
istic, geometrical patterns, kinetic de
signs fufl of the motion of leaping flames,
bent branches, lightning, zigzags and fall
ing showers of dots or snow crystals, to
pictorial prints of sports, village scenes,
cubist representations of New York, to
lovely flower patterns and prim English
prints. Combinations of several colors
