We would urgo upon every class that it make plans to leave a monument of somo kind upon tho campus. The enthusiastic audience which greeted Mr. Michener at his first meet ing on laat- evening was a credit to tho university. Mr. Michener Is one of the strongest Christian workers in college life. Ho was greeted with the largest mass meeting of male students ever held on tho university campus. His talk was not only interesting hut very instructive. His advlco to the men as students and coming from n student will prove of great value to many. His prolonged stay will en able every one to take advantage of Mr. Mlchener's experience by talking personally with him. condition of tho reading room and tho difllculty In securing books, tho injus tice is still greater. Many such acta aro thoughtlessly done, but aro sure ly not excusable. We would urge upon every ono to remember his fellow stu dents. Much tlmo would bo saved- in tho Jong run. MUSIC IN THE UNIVERSITY. Besides many others, thero is one thing nolicably Wiring in tho Uni versity, and that is an interest in music. Ono of tho marked differences be tween colleges of Europo and America is tho appreciation of good music, both of tho instrument and of the voice, and tho difference is not in favor of the American school. Even in our country moro attention is paid to this feature of education in the eastern colleges than in tho western. In our own University slight atten tion is paid to such things, a condi tion which ought to bo remedied. Ef forts have been mado for the last sev eral years to organize a strong chorus In the University and it is not to the credit of Nebraska that this year should see tho strongest chorus and it with a membership of only ono hun dred and twenty-five. Of this num ber registered many have dropped out on account of leaving school and other reasons, and now tho averago attend ance Is about seventy-five. There are two chorus classes at pres ent, tho first year and tho advanced chorus. They both meet at five o'clock, the first on Thursday and the advanced on Tuesday. Mrs. Raymond, the leader of both classes, is now having the advanced chorus study Mendellsohn's "St. Paul," which will be sung during commencement week. This is a heavy piece of work, and the class is study ing it with considerable care. The advantages of such work arc not in the singing and practice alone, but also in the knowledge one receives in such study. The singer does not fully appreciate the piece until he or she has studied it thoroughly, and a sincere effort at understanding the production will bo a revelation to the singer. Attention to this musical work is thus asked from all the students, and it is hoped many will avail themselves of a delightful and profltablo study.

TUCKER 1I2J O STREET THE YELLOW FRONT For WATCHES and JEWELRY " SAME SHAPE"" - isTWO QUAUTIES iw VI A i Tho abuse of library privileges by somo of the students has become too frequent. '1 ho reading room is very crowded during the busy hours of the day. Nevertheless, come insist upon tipping up a chair and leaving it for a half hour or even longer. A few will thun reserve a Beat while they are at tending a class. One example of this recently camo to our notice. A stu dent tipped tho chair, piled his books up, and went to dinner. Among the books was one almost constantly in demand by a large American History class. After an hour nnd a hnlf, the I individual returned, occupied his scat; for a few minutes, and went to a cIiibb, ! During the remainder of the after noon ho probably used the chair for an hour. At supper tlmo, the chair was again leaned over upon tho table. The gentleman, owing to his Humor ous engagements, was prevented from returning until about nlno-thlrty, or only a half hour before tho library closed. Thus the chnlr in tho library had boon reserved by him for about ten hours, and out of that time he had actually used the seat for only threo or four hours. Tho library book had also been piled up with his own, during that time. Such an abuso of tho free privileges of our library is carrying selfishness to an extreme. Many others do things almost as bad.
