N THE DAILY NEBRASKAN Styles in School Teachers Change As in Other Things, Report Reveah Br Ruth Palmer "How the times have changed," hreiks the modern school teacher when she reads quotations from the veW Hampshire School committee report made for 1856. In 1856, $1.50 a week for board was considered quite high. In fact, when the teacher paid this amount the family with whom she boarded felt it their duty to assist the teacher to her work. $1-25 was paid for board in the summer term. In dis trict No. 4 the report for Troy County says, the price of board for both terms was $2.50 per week; thirty-three dollars were paid the teacher for twelve weeks labor and thirty dollars for board for the same time. While seventy-one years ago the school marm was snugly tucking half of her eleven-dollar-a-month sa lary in the blue pitcheer on the man tle case little Miss Instructoress of today can hardly meet the manicur- X WCl0aVSsT ONIQUC THEATW WTFORfHY ARTISTIC PBOOUCTOel TONIGHT ALL.

Free board to our modern teacher is a thing unheard of unless it is in the shape of a nice hard board some clever child with his cunning witicism of 1927 were to bring to the school house for the teacher's future use, but even that is unheard of in most of our modem schools with their student governing Doaies ana monitorial systems. The good of the school, it seems, was taken into consideration with the boarding of the teacher. ToHnw the school board little cares whether the teachers eat or not. In fact, some prefer those teachers who havo left the starches and fats from their menus and can barely "tip" the scales. Not so in the old days. A well fed teacher, the report hints, was desirable.

But whatever the work, lus place in it and his contribution to its success depend upon his accep tance of this Western Electric idea: to improve the machinery of production to a point where it more closely approaches perfection. stem Elecfh MANUFACTURERS FOR THE BELL SYSTEM DELTS WIN IN TOURNEY Beta Theta Pi Goes Down to Defeat In Only Game in Greek Tournament Delta Tau Delta defeated Beta Theta Pi 11 to 8 and virtually won the league 6 championship in the only game of the inter-fraterriity basketball tournament last night. The Delts, emerging from the half on the short end of a 4 to 2 score came back strong in the final period of play and rolled up nine counters to the opponent's four. The game was hard fought from the first whistle and was anybody's game until the end of play. Excel lent defense featured the game until the last quarter when both teams scored frequently. Hill playing on the forward wall of the Delt team won the honor of individual point man with seven points to his credit The combina tion of Hill and Cook proved too much for the Betas in the final pe riod and the Delts had soon gained a lead which they maintained until the finish.
