SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 10, 1906.
There is a lot of persistent talk about a post-season game with the K. C. A. C. team, in spite of the fact that sentiment here is decidedly against it. We have nothing to gain from such a game,and can well afford to stay out of it.
There is no concealing the fact that the Nebraska game is by all odds the big game of the season in the eyes of the University. The trip to Lincoln is the absorbing theme just now, and there will be a goodly crowd on the spot next Saturday to see how the thing is done. We are going there to win-or to be shown.
Nebraska is feeling good over the fact that Billy Rice and Frank Griggs were not included in the eligibility list submitted from here. Our neighbors need fear no such attempts, in spite of outside press reports. Rice was declared ineligible before the St. Louis game, and Griggs went into that game simply because it was in strict accordance with the contract.
There is a movement on foot among the athletically inclined young ladies of the University to organize a Varsity basket ball team. There is no reason why such an organization would not be a credit to the institution, and well worth the while of its members. Washburn, Ottawa, Baker, Bethany, and K. S. A.C. have teams, and would be very glad in all probability, to make a schedule with a University team.
The article on the entomological collection of the University Museum which is printed in another column, is an eloquent testimony to the zeal and faithful devotion of one man to his chosen work. The collection is practically the work of one man. It has grown steadily from year to year, and few realized the magnitude of the work that has been accomplished. More than twenty-five years ago the first specimens were collected and mounted by the hand of the man who still directs the work, and gives his personal attention to every summer collecting expedition.
The collection, although that of a young institution is second to but one in America, and it is owing entirely to Dr. F. H. Snow.
Dr. Snow came to the University as a young man, and has devoted his whole life to the work he found to be done here. For several years the management of the institution was upon his shoulders, but in spite of that, his work in his chosen field went on. The collection in the museum does not by any means represent the work that Dr. Snow has done in the forty years that he has been here. It is one of the most apparent evidences of it. Just as a great artist is remembered by a masterpiece, or a poet by his best effort, Dr. Snow will be remembered longest by the collection which represents his work. It is a fitting monument to his industry and patience, to his faithfulness to a chosen work.
Vesper Service.
The next Vesper service will be held in the University chapel Sunday afternoon at 4:30. Dean Hart of Denver will speak. Every student in the University ought to come out to hear Dean Hart as well as to hear the beautiful musical service which will be given. Professor Hubach has taken special pains to make the music the very best. The following is the musical program: Organ Prelude, Bach; Coral; Lord's Prayer, Schilling; Venite, Decevee; In Excelsis, Old Chant; Hymn, 115; Anthem, from Redemption, Gounod; duet, "I Will Magnify Thee," Mosenthal; Benedictus, from Mass of St. Cecelia, Gounod; Postlude, Violin with Organ, Tartini; Aria.

Hospital Association Is Growing Very Slowly.
The membership in the University Hospital Association has reached its first century mark this week. The growth has been very disappointing, and the Association will not be able to accomplish much this year. There have been but two benefits thus far. C. L. Burt and O. D. Chambers have been in the hospital for several weeks, and are entitled to the aid of the Association. Both men are recovering slowly.
