the importance of graduates of

braska men and women, rather
than just a group of men and
women." He stated that "the hope
of the alumni association is that
the 54.000 graduates of Nebraska
and all of those who are to grad
uate in future years will feel that
they have some tie to the univer

achieved by creating in students a
feeling of loyalty and affection
toward the . university.
Possible work.

lege woman may not realize it,
but the defense program is pro
ducing unmistakable changes in
the life and education of the av
erage coed. Woman are getting
more jobs. They need more practi
cal training and a physical and
mental "toughening up" program.
This is the conclusion of no less
an authority than D. Meta Glass,
president of Sweet Briar college
and chairman of the national com
mittee on Women in College, who
speaking on the folly of college
women in the defense program
had this information to pass along:
"Twenty-five percent of all
workers in defense industries are
women and the percentage is in
creasing continually" making in-

was sponsored jointly by the alum
ni association and the Union.
Sweet milk-
(Continued from Page 1.)
Of course cows must eat to pro
duce milk but when they eat such
foods as wild onion, garlic, penny
cress, or any other strong smel
ling food the same odor will be
transmitted to the milk. As the
cow eats the food, she inhales the
volatile odors.
Smells absorbed.
These are picked up by the blood
as it passes through the lungs and
carried to the udder. The milk
that is being produced here quickly
absorbs the odors from the blood
stream. If the cow finishes eating
and the odor has decreased in the
blood, the odor will also decrease
in the milk.
If enough time has passed so
that the concentration of the odor
in the blood has been cleared up
by milking time, only a very little
odor will be noticeable in the milk.
Care should be given so as not to
milk too soon after or during the
time the cow is eating.
Onions for 72 hours.
Dr. Downs stated that there is
a great difference in the ease that
odors may be removed from the
milk. A good example of this is
found in the south where wild on
ions can be tasted in the milk as
long as 72 hours after the cow has
eaten or inhaled its volatile odors.
Eradication of these weeds may
prove successful in cutting down
on the yearly loss of $200,000
caused by odors.

Government; banking, commerce

which Senator Bowman works.
"My only reason for coming down
here was to help the state, I have
no legislation to boost and I don't
want to punish anyone," said the
senator when asked if he had any
"pet bills."
He agreed, though, that some
were more meritorious than others
and cited L. B. 127 as an example
of good legislation.
