coln" as a weekly, and dignifies It now as

friends. Tho now size and form makes
tho paper much more Interesting and
readable, as tho expense heroioforo In
curred In maintaining a red cover Is. now
expended In printing good association
news.
THE LIBRARY.
Tho most noticeable chango In tho li
brary Is tho absonco of Miss Jones, who
left for a European trip soon after com
mencement. Miss Jones la now Librarian
of tho University of Illinois. Mr. Smith
and Mr. Mueller havo also loft tho library
Pay roll, Mr. Smith Is working with his
father In Council Bluffs. Mueller Is in
the Unlvorslty, "but has not tlmo to con
tinue to wait on patrons of 'tho library
with his accustomed good humor.
Tho placo mado vacant by Miss Jones'
resignation has not yet been filled, al
though It Is expected that it will bo soon.
Miss Edna Bullock and Miss Wing havo
been added to tho force. Miss Bullock
comes as head cataloguer and has chargo
f tho library ponding tho coming of a li
brarian. Sho Is a mombor of the class of
'W, U. of N., and Is also a graduate of tho
Library school at Albany, N. Y. Slnco her
Waauatlon sho has been employed in the
stato library In this city, in the now city
library in Nebraska City, and Just prior
to coming here, in tho John Crerar Li
brary In Chicago. Miss Wing is a grad
ate of tho Armour Institute Library
Bchool in Chicago. Sho comes hero as
assistant cataloguer. She Is also a former
student of this Unlvorslty, although not
an alumnus. Hor homo Is in this city,
and sho is well known to most of tho
older Unlvorslty people.
During .tho sumnior tho library Iiob boon
oleancd througout, and tho shelves
ohcoked ovor for missing books. This had
not bcon dono boforo for two years, and
thoro wore u largo number of books gono.
It 1b thought, howovor, that many of
thcBO will come buck in as tho students
come buck, There has boon too much
freedom among tho studen'ta In taking
booku from tho library without having
thorn charged nt tho desk. When thoy
aro tuken In (his way tho library hus no
record of thorn and honuo must churgo
them up as lost. This rulsos tho Hat of
lost booku to a very discouraging ltguro,
whon In reality thoro aro few books ab
solutely lost.
Tho order In tho library during tho last
year was not bucIi aa to uocuro tho best
results to thoso using tho privilege With
a viow to corrooting this abuse tho follow
ing cards have been printed and put In
prominent places upon the library tables:
"Unlvorslty of Nebraska Llbrury Head
ers demand qulot, ihoroforo conversation,
oven in low tones, Is strictly prohibited
By strictly observing tho rules readers
uiul visitors will sparo tho attendants the
unpleasant duty of enforcing them by
personal appeal. Plcaso step llglnly In
any necessary moving about tho room.
Under no circumstances uro books to be
removed from tho llbrury without being
churged at tho desk. These rules aro
mado wholly In tho lntorcsts of rcudors,
whom tho library Is glad In cvory praotl
cablo way to aid or accommodate."
Another notlco of Importance) to now
students roads U3 follows: "Tho library as
sistant at tho rcntul desk will cheerfully
glvo all posslblo nsnlstnncn In tho use of
tho library." This moans, "If you don't
seo what you want, ask for it at tho
desk."
Early In tho summer about S00 volumes
woro sent to tho binders for repairs
These como from all departments. Thoy
aro tho books which aro used tho most,
and honco aro most worn. They aro ex
pected back at any tlmo now.

cipal of a high school in a small town

Generous troatmont, convenience and

OPENING OF THE UNI.
Tho Unlvorslty oponod for registration
on loBt Tuesday morning, when crowds
of students, mostly new onso, nlmoBt filled
tho armory, which served as tho general
offlco of tho Unlvorslty. For more than
a week back, every train -which has pulled
Into Lincoln haa brought many students,
to the University. As yet most of thoso
who havo arrived are "props" or "frcsh
les," and the older students aro not much
In evidence, although now, toward tho lat
ter end of the week, thoy havo begun to
como in more rapidly.
Indications point tq un Increased regla-
tratlon ovor that of last year, duo In part
to Nebraska's bountiful crops this yoar,
nnd also to tho aotlon of tho regonts In
continuing tho preparatory Btudlos of last
year Tho registration thus far Is much
groator than at tho samo tlmo last yoar,
but whothor tho groat rush of studonts
will hold out, Is a question. If It does,
an onrollmont of at least l.fcJX) Is assured
and somo oven cstlmato It as high as 2,000,
In tho armory tho samo old scenes aro
bolng onaoted. Tho Y. M. C. A. buroau
of Information and rocopdon committee
uro at work at tho old stand. Tho froBh
man with his high sohool diploma In his
hand, stunds bewildered by tho multi
plicity of tablos, signs and placards, try
ing by tho aid of tho invaluable) Y. M. C.
A. handbook to Ilguro out "where ho is
at."
It Iiub boon a busy wook for every ono
connoatod with tho Unlvorslty and tho ex
trumo hot weuther has not added to their
comfort. Chancellor MaoLoun Is probably
tho busiest person of ull and his olllco la
bosi'ljrod all day long. Tho dlfforont tablos
In tho urmory uro all numbered and us
the Chancellor's olllco Is numbered "one,"
tho now student naturally thinks ho must
sou tho Chanoellor ut all events, or ho may
not bo able to register.
Alroudy tho study room In tho library
Is beginning to loso Its desortod appeur
imo;, but tho majority of tho studonts pro
for to take "bench work" or loungo In tho
Co-Op during tho uhort vacation which
remains, without feollng guilty that thoy
aro skipping classes. Registration of all
students will close Friday night. Tho
first attondano at cIusboh will b on Sat
urday, and then real work will begin on
Monduy.

THE TENNIS ASSOCIATION.
During tho spring and summer thero
seems to havo been but slight Interest
manifested in tennis, as barely enough en
thusiasm could bo aroused to porfoct an
organization. Howovor, Jim Wlso, Tabor
Tulo, et al., scraped tho weeds off of two
of tho courts and played enough during
the summer to keep them from accumulat
ing. Miss Pound's recent victory and tho
Influx of students has loaned an lmpotus
to tho sport and stops aro being taken
toward forming a class organization with
prospeot of a fall tournament In sight.
