donated o the city of Lincoln this block
for public use, as a market square on con
dition thst It should never be sold or
alienated by the city. In ioft the act was
amended so the city could use the block for
a market square and for other public pur
pose. Since that time the city has con
structed upon It a building for Its (Ire de
partment, city offices and city Jail. '
Now the city has hpught the old govern
ment building for Its city hall and it Is
about to move It city office to that plac.
Apparently the city hs no furthef use
for the ground. But the- state historical
society which is now occupying rooms at
th Stat university has come up with a
a bill to appropriate $25,000 to erect a one

Aa repreaerrtattvea of the two largest

that they may have a nnlahed and practi

placed In th Horn for the Friendless wa
one of expediency. Th 110.000 appropri
ated In 1J0 mas an experiment. The ex
periment was a success. It has shovn
a large and growing demand for the relief
of indigent, crippled children. Thla In
stitution, therefore, is destined to oecome
a large and beneflcient one. To be mort
useful for the purposes Intended, It should
be In tbe largest city in the state, the
greateat center for medical and surgUal
work, where th best skill for their lelief
Is to be obtained. Thus the crippled, rup
tured and deformed are better served.
To do this does not Involve any extra
expenditure. It is only necessary to !
cate it where Its valuable clinical material
la at the disposal of our third and four'h
year atudenta. That thla valuable ma
terial should go to educational waat. aa

and our profession of the future. . Tho
