and around these huge lights there will
l.e eight large goos-r.ecks. carrying big,
opalescent globes. Each of these immense
gloves, studded with lights, will revolve
by motor power, end as the lamps in these
will be red and white, in spiral form, the
globes wfll present a cork-screw effect as
they revolve. One of these big, decorated
globes was suspended yesterdsy afternoon
In tha Auditorium and the lights were
turned on and it begen to revolve. The

Chancellor Avery of the state university
has received a letter from the commit
tee In charge of the Rhodes scholarship
competition that it is no longer neces
sary for an applicant for thla honor to
have a knowledge of Oreek. It has been
found that many brilliant scholars
throughout the United Ptatee have been
barred from the competition because of
thla lack. The committee has changed
the rule that the examination may toe
taken admitting this branch, and the
language may be made up later as op
portunity is offered, if the applicant is
successful.
Prof. Frye of the department of
rhetoric haa been Inclined to take Issue
with a number of eastern theorists who
hold that the western students are
divided into non-students and grinds. He
holds that the westerners are more earn
est in their desire to secure knowledge
than thoae in the east, taking them aa a
class together, and that while In the
rant there are many student who merely
go to the clasa room to absorb knowl
edge, the western student Inclined this
way Js generally more anxious to ac
quire information t some practical end.
The authorities of the school of agri
culture have made a rule that a young
woman of the achool may not accept the
company of a young man of the school
more than once In five weeks, and that
the young men aball pay attention to the
young women In turn. The rule was
made necessary because ef the constant
attention some couples were paying la
each other to the exclusion of the duties
of the school.

It Is said that a number of prominent
seniors sre beading tha movement -for a
new college song, to supplant the "Old
Scarlet and Cream" of past years. The
reason assigned for getting a new song
Is that the old one Is modeled after tne
famous "Orange and Black" of Princeton
so closely that the verses can not be said
to be distinctly Nebraskan. In order to
promote a few composers among the stu
dents, it has been suggested that a num
ber of prises be offered for the best com
positions. The seniors In charge of the
matter claim that the prises offered will
mske it worth the while of any atudent
to enter.

table teams and If a first basket ball team
Is put Into the field next year there will
be abundant material of a high order to
draw from.
The materials for the track team are
arriving and if the pleaaant weather holds
out a little longer, the aspirants for po
sitions on the team will be able to get
out and do some warming up for their
harder work when the spring really comes.
Moat of the members of last year's track
team are In school this year and the large
amount of new material at hand will enable
the school to put out sn even stronger
team than the . which so nobly upheld

COST OF EDICATIOX.
Plea for La rarer Eiseali tares la the
ConsBtoa Schaols.
In one of his recent addresses on educa
tional subjects. Charles W. Eliot, president
t Harvard college, urged Increased appro
priations for public schools. He saM:
The expenditure per pupil In the com
mon schools of the United fitetes Is slto
giether Insufficient. Tha average expendi
ture per pupil for the whole school years
In the United States was In WOO, 13.14, but
this expenditure varies very much In the
different divisions of the country.
The coat of urban public school systems
has been materially Increased during the
last twenty years by the institution cf four
new kinds of school the manual training
school, the mechanic art high school, the
evening; school and the vacation schorl
All these branches of the public school or
ganisations were Introduced Into our country
by private beneficence, and hsve only
gradually been adopted Into public school
systems. The manual training school, the
mechanic arts high school and the vaca
tion school are undoubtedly permanont
Institutions of public education.
Evening schools may or may not prove
permanent. At present they remedy defl-
cloncles ef education in young people who
are of foreign birth, or who have too early
gone to work to support themselves or their
parents. If public education were universal
and thoroughly affective, the evening school
would not be so much needed. Its duration
aa an Institution will therefore depend
on tha rate at which public schools Im
prove In efficiency.
All these new branches of public instruc
tion are somewhat expensive additions to
the ordinary day schools, the mechanio
arts high school being particularly expen
sive, as wefl as very useful. The utility
of manual training for city children has
been thoroughly demonstrated, and there
can be no doubt that this somewhat costly
form of Instruction will be maintained and
developed. The appearance of these four
new kinds of schools as schools properly
to be supported by taxation, illustrates
strlWngry the readiness of the American
population to undertake new burdens for
the education of the youth.
Every educational Improvement of the
but thirty years has been costly, but every
one has justified Itself In the eyes of the
taxpayers, or of those who vohintsrlly pay
for It; not one would now be recalled,
and the total reault encourages the expec
tation that large now expenditures would
commend themselves to the people at the
stait, and in the end would prove to be
both profitable in the material sense and
civilizing in 'the humane . sens.
The expenditure in tlioso parts of our
country where ft is nfw smallest oujrht to
be raised as rapidly as possible to tha level
if those regions where the expenditure is
now most liberal it ought to be doubled
as soon as possible.

Wheat Lands of Canada
Just forty miles north of the
United States boundary line we
own thousands of the finest wheat
lands in the wcrld.
These lands are all located
within a distance of two to ten
miles from town in the famous
We burn Manor District.
Government statistics show the
average yield of wheat for eleven
years here to be exactly 34 bush
els and 54 pounds. This is more
than twice the average yield of
any state In the Mississippi valley.
Other government statistics
show the average coat of raising
one acre of wheat in this district
to be exactly $7. OS. With wheat
at $1.00 a bushel (36 an acre), il
la a simple matter to demonstrate
how these farms will pay their
entire cost, in addition to a splen
did profit, from the first crop.
Low Taxes Prevail
Taxes on these lands average
les than 10 cento an store. '
There are no taxes whatever on
personal property, live stocky farm
implement or buildings. This is
an important item for every In
vestor. The government, is putting forth
every effort to assist the people.

Dr. H- H. Maynard is not ready to give
out a detailed statement of the amount of
money now in ?and and pledged for the
new university, but he admits the fund is
reaching respectable proportions. Business
men who are not influenced by church af
filiations are giving their help and talk
ing about the university as an Institution.
Bince it is In no wsy a denominational
school various Protestant churches are
putting their shoulder to the wheel and are
pulling for the eommon goal.
The university men are not now worry
ing over eastern support since they have
secured the home assistance. The out
side help wtll come, they assert, so long
as the people at home give thetr's.

ing town of 2,000, has already
aeven grain elevators and many
churches of almost every denomi
nation. Farms are being cultivated with
rapidity and in only a few years
these lands will be worth from ten
to twenty times the price for
which they can now be purchased.
New Rout to Llverpoo 1
One of the most important mat
ters for consideration is the new
railroad now being built by the
government, direct from this dis
trict to Fort Churchill, on Hudson
Bay.

When completed the grain
loaded into cars at Weyburn will
reach Liverpool (the greatest
wheat market in the world) by a
.route 700 miles shorter than If
shipped from Chicago.
And the railroad haul will be
only 600 miles to Fort Churchill,
as compared with nearly 2,000
miles from Chicago to the Atlantic
coast.
Two Hours More Sunshine
During the growing season the
daylight here Is sixteen hours
two hours more of sunshine than
in your own atate. So the wheat
growa faster and larger than al
most anywhere else.
The reason for this is simple.
The curvature of the earth at this
point produces an earlier sunrise
and a later sunset. It adds two
hours to the working day of every
growing plant.
Thla additional sunshine means
additional money to the farmer.
Yet It is only one of the many im
portant advantages which Nature
has bestowed upon this wonderful
region of Canada.
