A number' of students with a large sprinkling of visitors f r o m the outside had gathered, e x p e c t i n g to listen in on K F A B ; but such was the behavior of some of the students that at times it was difficult to hear what was being said. This is regrettable, particularly in view of the f a c t that many were especially anxious to hear Professor Prescott's address on " E v o l u t i o n and the Bible." A p p a r e n t l y the intelligence Of this g r o u p of disturbers was not capable of c o m p r e h e n d i n g the program, or else their manners were unequal to the occasion, f o r certainly they w e r e old enough to know better. i f these young people have no particular interest in their own reputation, we would urge them, if only f o r the reputation of Union, to use a little m o r e discretion when in public, and respect the rights of others. Union College has one of the best' museums in the state of Nebraska. But who knows it? H o w many of the college students are receiving any benefit f r o m this w o n d e r f u l c o l l e c tion? Something must be done to arouse us to a realization of the value of this material, which is sadly in need of c a r e f u l cleaning and rearranging. Out of respect to the donors, the specimens should receive m o r e care. The c o l l e g e museum has ten large cases of b e a u t i f u l l y mounted birds, ranging f r o m the bald-headed eagle and the great w h i t e A m e r i c a n pelican to the tiniest h u m m i n g bird. T h e r e are also several cases of m o u n t e d mammals; and the reptile w o r l d is represented by an alligator six f e e t long. Sea l i f e is also well represented by varied specimens of curious fish, and an excellent collection of coral and sponges. If this museum were given better attention, every department in the c o l l e g e c o u l d find m'aterial which w o u l d add greatly to the interest of the classes. Even the history department m i g h t seem less dry if some of the still drier clay tablets, written in 2300 B. C., were used in the study of ancient history. The classes in modern history and in the history of missions w o u l d find interesting sidelights thrown on the costumes and implements f r o m f o r e i g n countries.

Why did the young ladies residing at home make the highest grades in Union College last semester, while the boys residing in their homes made the lowest? A. W e are at as much of a loss to know the reason why as was Professor Thiel. A l l o w i n g equal intelligence f o r both groups, it merely seems as though the girls did more studying. Possibly they were under more caief u l supervision, and maybe the boys spent m o r e t i m e in sports, et cetera. W e do not know whether they worked longer hours. It is w o r t h noting that the girls' average throughout the school was higher than that of t he boys. Q. T o what extent are grades an index of intelligence? A. Possibly not so much as is fondly imagined. Grades are relative, and they are the teacher's c o n c e p t i o n of one's standing in a subject, which conceptions vary considerably, as may be seen when a number of teachers grade the same paper. However, grades may serve as a general index, not necessarily to one's intelligence, but rather to one's standing in particular subjects. Other considerations enter into the question. Q. Is it p r a c t i c a b l e f o r a person to add a new word to his vocabulary every day? If so, what m e t h o d .do you suggest? A. It certainly is practicable, and very d e s i r a b l y W o r d s may be obtained in reading, writing, translating, or listening. Use these f o u r rules whenever y o u meet a new word: pronounce, spell, define, use the word. If you do not meet a new word, go to the dictionary f o r one. Suggestion f o r today: demise.
