and h first man to play on the team
and be a member Of the debating squad at
the same time. He Is now preparing for
the debate with Lincoln.
Prentiss, who played sub full. was one OF
the plucldest ind nerviest players in the
squad. He was faster IN hitting the line
than any other man except Mckinney, and
his work on defense was splendid. His
work in the Council Bluffs game, where
he applied the heavy backfield time after
line before they were started. was the
best seen this season on the Omaha field.
He was handicapped, however, by lack OF
weight, and IT was for this reason alone
that he did not make a regular position.
Sears Played Anywhere.
Sears played sub half and end. and was
the utility man Of the team. What Hoff-
man was TO the Chicago Nationals. Sears
was to the High school. Whenever a good
guard or tackle was needed. Sears was on
hand to I'll the place and do IL well. too,

the job. But 1t was as a substitute for the
backs that he proved the most valuable

either McKinney's place or Nash's, and
he always went in with the same spirit and
dash that had characterized the work of
the man whose place he had aiken. Sears
was fast enough and heavy enough to make
a position in the line and could have made
a regular place easily, but Coach Cher
rington felt the need Of a good utility man,
who could be called upon to take any
position at a moments notice and go in
fresh, and he saw that Sears was the
man. 1t Is rather hard on a high school
boy who knows ne is capable of making
the team to stand on the side lines through
part OF the game. but Sears Is the kind
who works for the team and not for him
self, and he did his work not only with
out complaining, but willingly.
Another man who graduates this year
n who deserves a great deal of praise
for his loyalty and self-sacrificing spirit,
is Fricke. Having never played before this
season he was greatly handicapped, but
he did not become discouraged, as many
seniors would have done in his place. In
stead, he came to the practice regularly
n worked hard and faithfully. His de-
v%elopment was wonderful, but he was COM
peting against more experienced men and
so did not make a regular position. Al
though he did not play In any of the big
games except for a few minutes, Fricke
was always on hand and glad to see the
other fellow take his place IL he would
be more valuable TO the team.

ming the team Is in a large measure ac-
countable for the enormous score which

Cooke played on the Nebraska scrubs in
1906 and made the varsity the next fall,
playing at quarterback, the position he has
held ever since then. His speed and dodg-
ing ability have made him one OF the best
quarters in the Missouri valley. and last
fall and this he has been selected as the
best all-Mlssourl valley field general. This
season Cooke has played the greatest
game of his career. The first season he
was on the team he spoiled his play by
running back after catching the ball for an
end run, and he often lost ground. Last
year he had improved in this respect, but
still lacked the finer essentials OF a great
quarter. This fall he has played one of
the best games a Nebraska quarterback
ever put up. He lodges quick, does not
run back and Is much more consistent in

openings in the Iowa defense that even
the slowest men on the ~Cornhusker squad

ever he had an opportunity he always had
special preparations made for his comfort.
In an old album in Washington has been
found this letter, written by his hand:
WASHINGTON, JUNE IS, 1860.

When Jacob became fugitive from the
anger of his brother Esau he took stones and
laid them for pillow. In some nations sort
of cricket. of wood. is regularly used for the
same purpose. The proper object of the pillow
IS not to raise the head above the level of the
body, but to fill out the difference between the
level of the shoulders and that of the head
when the body is on its side. And this is the
natural position; for it is against the rules of
health to sleep on the back.
Hence, the pillow should be constructed
simply to furnish the needed support for the
head, with the body on the side. 1t should not
be too large, and yet be large enough. 1t
should enable the head to retain its natural
position. neither bent down toward the pillow
nor raised upward out of line with the recum-
bent body
Notwithstanding their general use in
pillows, many health culturists maintain that
feathers should never be used: for the head
sinks into them and becomes unduy heated
The old rule, Keep the head cool and the
feet warm" is always a good one: but it is
particularly necessary at night. Nature herself
points in this direction, since, by wonder
full continuance, she arrests the activity of the
brain and renders sleep possible by greatly
diminishing the flow Of blood to the brain
Whatever heats the brain sends blood to it.

in the country, the soft inner leaves of corn
