Firt Game of Season With Tarkio
Friday A Hard Game With the
Preacher Expected
The University basketball team
plays the first game of the season
with the Tarkio team - in the gym
nasium Friday night The strength of
the visitors is not known but the Col
lege being a small one it Is expected
that the varsity team will have an
easy time.
Saturday night the Wesleyan team
moves on the Armory and a real battle
is predicted. Coach Kline wishes to
show that he has some grounds for
claiming state championship for his
team and the University team is no
less eager to try their plays against
the Methodists. University Place will,
as usual, send a big crowd of rooters.
A month later the second game with
Weslevan will be played at Wesleyan.
If the teams should each win one of j
the first two games, the "rub" may be
played off In the auditorium.
Night practice was on the bill for
the Cornhuskers last night Other
schools in the conference are putting
in claims for the championship and
Kansas undoubtedly will have a good
team. The Jayhawks, having little else
to boast of In the last few years, have
in irritating ways made sport of the
Cornhuskers efforts at basketball.

ALUMNUS GETS RECOGNITION
Charles F. Horner Contributes
American Magazine Employs
Many Students in Chau
qua Work
to
Charles F. Horner, an alumnus of
Nebraska, founder and operator of the
Redpath-Horner Chautauqua and Ly
ceum Bureau, now has the financial
responsibility of the Kansas City Sym
phonic Orchestra concerts in his
charge. Recently the American Maga-
line honored him with a request for
some of his writings and a number of
his short stories on rural life have ap
pear In the Kansas City papers.
Mr. Horner's chautauquas are oper
ated almost wholly by college men and
women and he has continually shown
preference to those young men and
women from Nebraska University. Al
together he has probably contributed
as largely to the financial backing and
support of worthy young college talks
in the Missouri Valley as any other
one Institution.
Of his latest writings the following
has recently been published:
"Achievement"
IS IT ENOUGH
That you may stand with power on the
hill
And see the mighty river rolling
toward the sea.
The distant valleys the woodland
with knowing eyes.
And swelling heart behold the sun in
majesty
Sink calmly Into night from gold
washed skies?

Who sees the rocks on which he
stumbles, not the view below;
Who would be strong, but that his

Would walk erect, but that his shoul

HAVE- CORNHUSKER
PICTURES TAKEN
NO INDIVIDUAL PICTURES AC
CEPTED AFTER FEB. 15
WANT BOOK OUT ON TIME
Holiday Rush is Over and the Town
send Studio Will be Devoted to
Cornhusker Pictures Almost
Exclusively
If the 1916 Cornhusker is to be out
on time this year, the individual and
organization pictures must be taken
very soon. This Is one part of the
book over which the staff has no con
trol, so It Is up to the student body to
take the responsibility upon them
selves, and see that the progress of
the book Is not hampered on their
account
Now that the holiday rush is over,
Mr. Townsend has practically turned
his entire studio over to the student
body for their Cornhusker pictures.
Under these conditions .there will be
no difficulty in scheduling dates for
sittings.
The pictures for this year are to be
the same as for last year, that Is, indi
vidual for all the Juniors, seniors, and
sororities, and group for the fraterni
ties and other organizations.
The engraving charge on the Junior
and senior individual pictures has been
reduced from the U-50, which it has
been in former years, to $1.00.
While It is not absolutely compul
sory. It Is desirable that all pictures be
taken by Mr. Townsend in order to
obtain uniformity In the book. Those
of different size or tone will not ha
placed in their proper places among
the class, but will be put on a separate
plate at the end of the section, and
no individual pictures will be accepted
after February 5. The purpose of this
is not to work a hardship on anyone,
but merely to insure a first class book.
Complimentary tickets issued for the
Sophomore Hop held in the Lincoln
hotel. December 4, are as follows: Vir

His sorrow is not yours, and need
not be;
Carry not his load, but show him how
to bear
The burden God has given. Sing not
his song
But put music, ln his heart, and when
it's there
Teach him to sing alone, then walk
along
With him a step or two until Ms feet
have found the road.
Tell him. Behold! that which seemed
in mist to veil
The valley is but the tears within
his eres.
The precipice he feared when seen by
light of day.
Is Just the roadway stretching to
ward the lighted skies,
And showing thus you give the love
that lights his way.
That Is enough
That Is to see to have to live.
