IV' 1! i -n y - v 'SV rl Orphoum Theater opens its ioors-ext Monday night, Feb 7, with I v'k's enpagement of the Ulm ..Beo Geste" from the novel of the ume by Major Tercival C. I- directed by Herbert Brenon. "Beau Geste" is a story of the French Foreign Legion and opens ith a scene of a French battalion .pproschinp a desert fort in the Sa hara The battalion's trumpeter wandi is f8,ut?1 the Tnai0r firC8 " shot from his r'stol but there is no .nswering signal from the fort Al though the soldiers with rifles leveled can be seen standing n the1 embras ms of the fort, there is no response. Then the clopc-ups reveal that every man at his post is dead! The pic ture then flashes back to the begin ning of the story of the three Geste boys, Michael (Beau), Digby and John in their English home. The story takes them through childhood and finally to the adult period. When their aunt loses a fabulously valuable sapphire, they take each the blame and disappear, meeting again in the French Foreign Legion. Herbert Brenon has so cleverly weaved the mystery of the stolen jewel through out the story it is safe to venture that not one of the audience will guess the solution until it is revealed at the end. Ronald Colman, Neil Hamilton and Ralph Forbes as the three brothers have created characters in this film that will be long remembered. Other roles of importance are portrayed by Noah Beery, Alice Joyce, Mary Brian, William Powell, Norman Tre vor, Victor McLaglan and Donald Stuart. Special musical score written by Dr. Hugo Reisenfeld is rendered by the company's own traveling sym phony orchestra. Adv. Notices MONDAY, FEBRUARY 7 .

LABORATORY MOVED TO NEW LOCATION The physiology laboratory has been moved from the basement to the third floor of the nharmacv building. The basement room was not large enough to accomodate the larger classes this semester and was poorly lighted. Museum And School of Fine Arts Begin Moving To New Morrill Hall The past two weeks have been Just one moving day after another for the museum staff and the faculty of the school of fine arts at the Univer sity of Nebraska, and they aren't through yet It is perhaps a bit early for such spring activities, but they haven't minded it a great deal, for it is from cramped quarters in old buildings to the spacious new $250, 000 Morrill hall that they are moving. Already the school of fine arts has moved most of its office equipment and exhibits of various sorts of art work from the second floor of the library to the third and fourth floors of the new building. And some classes are being held there despite the fact that workmen are still busy cleaning up the rubbish which accum ulated during the last stages of con struction. But moving an entire museum is not so simple a matter. Dr. E. H. Barbour, director of the museum, es timates that it will be six months or more before all the exhibits are in place on the first and second floors of Morrill hall. Especially are elephants a prob lem. Derricks, arranged for the pur pose, will be used to lower these MONTUES.-WED. X' 1 1. 1. K V -.r TC" a. Uln laaaVV MON.-TUES.-WED.

In some cases it will even be necessary to remove the window frames. Many of the' larger exhibit cases will be handled in a similar manner. The University of Nebraska has some of the finest fossil elephant specimens in America, according to Dr. Barbour, who hopes that the col lection here will soon surpass all others in the world. Most of the scc ind floor of the new building: is de voted to a "hall of elephants" in which these fossils and other related specimens will be displayed. The ceiling of this large room is twenty six feet high so that the specimens may be properly mounted. Smaller fossils will be exhibited in cases around the sides of the room. In one group of these cases, for instance, will be placed the collection of tur tles, most of which came from the Nebraska sand-holl region. The mammoth elephant fossil which was unearthed near Campbell. Nebr., measures sixteen feet from the back of the skull to the tip of the tisks. Museum experts will dismantle the specimen as far as possible and the parts will be reassembled in the new building. Another of the rare specimens which will require special handling is the giant hog fossil which was found in Sioux county. This exhibit is valued at $50,000. The only other specimen like it is in the Carnegie museum at Pittsburgh. The fossil of the four-horned antelope is another of the valuable specimens. Nebraska has the only specimen in the world of this extinct animal and recently re fused an offer for it of more than $1000. The bones of the cycle-foot, or moropus, will be taken apart and carefully packed. No living creature resembles this curious animal, which had a head like a horse, a body like a rhinoceros, and, feet like a tiger. Minerals and lacy corals and the ex hibits of birds and small animals will be carried to the new building by hand. There will be ample room in Mor rill hall for the display of hundreds of specimens that have been stored away for years. In steam tunnels un der the campus, among other places,, U. of N.

It was prepared for the world's fair in 1908, but there was no place to put it after the exhibition so part of it was sent to the depart ment of botany and part to the col lege of agriculture. Almost since the beyinning of the University of Nebraska museum, Honorable Charles Morrill of Stroms- burg, for whom the new building was named, has been interested in its development. He and Dr. Barbour have kept the museum of and for Nebraska. None of the valuable ex hibits have come from other than Nebraska soil. Some of the richest fossil beds in the world are in this state, according to Dr. Barbour. Nearly every county is represented in the museum collections. Mr. Morrill's contributions to the museum funds have reacnea into thousands of dollars. And since 1891 Dr. Barbour has not been raid a cent for his work ni the museum, as he is head of the department of geology and a professor may be paid in only one department. Both men have cooperated in securing the priz-1 ed elephant fossils of which the mu seum boasts.
