Just where do the
styles come from,
anyway ?
In England, of course, the matter has been
made very simple. The whole thing is left up
to the Prince of Wales.
You can see at once how easy that makes
the clothes question for the Britishers
When the Prince takes a quiet stroll about
London, accompanied by a regiment or two
of cavalry and six military bands, all the vil
lagers take careful note of the royal costume.
Then each loyal subject rushes overtoBond
Street and buys one exactly like it.
Over here, we have no Prince worth putting
in the saddle, and the movie heroes are too
jealous of each other for any one of them to
, take the lead. There's nothing to do when
it comes to college clothes at least but let
the styles be decided by the men who are
going to wear them. Sounds rather reason
able, at that. Our college men know clothes
and they have their own ideas as to what
they want to wear. We'd back their judgment
against that of royalty any day!
P.S. We carry Society Brand allege
clothes because they are designed
exactly as college men have said
they should be. You'll not find any
more distinctive clothes anywhere.

Moro Weapons Are
In Kansas Museum
Lawrence, Kamias, Nov. 30.
A collodion of Moro weapons has
boon received by II. T. Martin, cur
ator of the anthropology and paleon
tology collections in Dycho muacum
at tho University of KanHns, and has
been added to tho growing collection
of native Philippine articles.
Tho Moro collection was nindo by
Henderson Martin, former vice-governor
of tho Philippines, during his
term in the islands, and was sent by
him to tho University. Tho collec
tion consists of two nmcliotos or
"barongs," two swords, and a long
spear, with Bcabbards.
"These weapons are especially
valuable to tho University," Mr. Mar
tin, the curator, snid, "for wo know
they are genuino ones, having seen
uso in battle. In a few more years
it will bo difficult to get such speci
mens, for they will have gone out of
use, and will be manufactured solely
for sale to collectors."
However, their very genuine na
ture makes the curator nervous in
handling them, for, as he expressed
it, "one never knows what kind of
virulent poison has been put on their
blades, nor when one will get cut."
Waddcll Criticizes Engineering
Education in Blue Print Article
South Dakota Selects
Womens Debate Team
Vermillion, S. D., Nov. 29. Se
lection of the debating teams which
will meet the women's debate organ
izations of Dakota Wesleyan and
South Dakota State college, Decem
ber 2, was announced today by Harry
G. Barnes, debate coach at the Uni
versity of South Dakota.
The question for the triangular
debate is the adoption of uniform
marriage and divorce laws in the
United States. The debates will be of
the open-forum type without judges'
decisions.
Constructive criticism of engineer
ing education is given in J. A. L.
WadellV 'article entitled, "In What
and Why Does Engineering Educa
tion Fail to Attain Its Greatest Pos
sibilities?" tho second of a scries, in
the November number of tho "Ne
braska Bluo Print" published by tho
student chapter of tho Nebraska En
gineering Society.
Improvement should bo made, ac
cording to Mr. Waddoll, along three
chief lines, namely better Instruc
tion, more thorough and simple
courses, and students of higher clnss.
All frills such as foreign language,
elaborate courses in economics, lit
erature and tho like, should bo elim
inated. Specialization with more coni
Dlete reauiremcnts and tho electives
restricted, condensing of courses so
as to cover as Bhort a time as pos
sible; thorough knowledge of the use
of mathematics as required in prac
tice; a working knowledge of the
English language; good knowledge of
the fundamentals of physics and
chemistry: training In mechanicul
drawing and the rudiments of sur
veying and measuring, and a descrip
tive course of engineering materials
and general business methods are
among the writer's recommenda
tions.
More care should be exercised in
the selection of entrants to the
schools of engineering, Mr. Waddcll
believes, so that only those of high
caliber, sound basic education, and
large futures may be trained as far
as possible. Carrying of incompetents
is unfair to themselves and to the
competents. A constant supply of
high caliber applicants might be in
sured by establishments of prepara
tory schools in connection with the
higher schools.
Longer Course Proposed
Indiana Coeds Have Better Health
Coeds at the University of Indiana
are losing "that graceful silhouette"
according to the woman's physician
at the school. She says that fewer
girls are deliberately starving them
selves to keep down their weight and
as a result the health average has
been raised materially.

116 No. 13th Street
Much has been said of lengthening
tho school poriod of engineers from
two or three years to flvo years. Bet
ter ways of augmenting tho output
can be found, such as developing in
tho students a true lovo and admira
tion for tho profession of engineering
and a consequent increase of their
capacity, or shortening tho useless
and interfering holidays which cut
down so materially the working hours
of tho students.
There is much abuse of tho lecture
system which is one of the fundamcn
ta lcauses of lack of efficiency in en
gineering education. Principal ob
jections as summarized by Mr. Wad
dell are: the lecturer does the hard
thinking instead of the student; lec
tures are quickly forgotten unless
notes are taken during tho discourse;
it is not feasible to simultaneously
take notes and listen attentively to
all tho lecturer is saying; numerous
mistakes arc made in taking lecture
notes, and when the records are stu
died or referred to later, tho said
mistakes are both misleading and ex
asperating; any lecture that is worthy
of being taken down as notes by the
hearers is certainly worth being
printed in pamphlet or book form by
its author;, lectures and lecture notes
involve an extravagant use of the stu
dent's time and are, therefore ob
jectionable on the basis of true
economy.
The writer recommends the divis
ion of the training into three stages
of advancement bo that each student
may find and be taught in his own
level. In the lower levels specializa
tion should begin with few elective
courses so that discipline could be
more severe, training more broaden
ing, and talent more developed as the
students get deeper into their pro
fessional education.

Registrar's
Office Keeps
All Records
(Continued from Pan Ons.)
In recent years, there have been a
number of foreign students whoso
standing has been determined In this
manner.
High School Credits Filed
A iplete file of the credits of
everv trraduate of an accredited high
school in the state hug been kept
Bince 1892. All any Nebraska high
school eraduate has to do is to notify
tho regiHtrar's office that he will at
tend tho University and a transcript
of his credits will be forwarded to
him ready for regintration.
A complete record of all students
attending the University in kept. The
only reports from tho instructors are
those made at the end of the semest
er. Tho grades are recorded from
the cards to tho registrar's records,
checked from the record to see that
they agree with the cards, and then
the cards are mailed to the students.
Secretary of Faculty
The registrar is the secretary of
the faculty of every college. In this
capacity, the registrar has to keep
the minutes on every faculty meet
ing. The registrar recommends the
seniors to their respective faculties
for graduation. The faculty in turn
recommends their graduation to the
Board of Regents.
Full time for one person is used
in checking credits. One person gives
half time in the winter to trans
cripts, that is, just copying the cre
dits for records. Anotner half per
son's time is used in compiling statis
tics which have to be furnished by
the registrar. Statistics have to' be
compiled in regard to all scholarship
requirements of the University, eligi
bility for fraternity or sorority in
itiation, and for averages for honor
fraternities. Full time for two' per
sons is spent checking on seniors' re
quirements, delinquencies, etc.
Fees are) Checked Here
The registrar's office has to check
on all fees. The registrar is respon
sible for seeing that all fees are. paid
although having nothing to do with
collecting them. The enforcing of
the military science and physical
education requirements also requires
constant checking from the regis
trar's office.
With the increased enrollments of
recent years, the identification of
students has become quite a prob
lem. Students with identical or very
similar names are no longer unusuaL
It is this d:fficulty which is respon
sible for insistence on accurate re
cording of full name and related
data at registration. In several cases
confusion has been caused due to
similarities in name which more com
plete information might have avoid
ed. Another trouble has been the
tendency of some students to use one
name one time and another name
another time.
The records of the office are
brought completely up to date at the
end of each school year. At the be
ginning of each year, a vast mass of
material has to be inserted in the
records. It takes two or three weeks
to get the records back on a work
ing basis after registration.
Joint Service and Recording Office
The registrar's office is, then, a
joint service and recording office. A
tremendous amount of records has
to be kept in order to have the par
ticular records which may be want
ed from time to time. Accuracy and
speed are the fundamental aims of
the office. The records must be
right. And they must be kept up to
date.
Balancing the close mechanical
ness of the record-keeping of the re
gistrar's office is its miscellaneous
information service. Beth functions
are valuable to the student The in
formation is a help, a distinct service
and one which could be rendered
with difficulty by any other office on
the campus. The records are a neces
sity. Both make the registrar's of
fice a spot of prime importance to
every student and one whose continu
ed efficiency is to the interest of
every student.
