Entered at the postofflce at Lincoln, Nebraska, as second class
mall matter under the Act of Congress of March 3, 1879.
The Christmas tree, 6outh of University hall, has begun to take on
Its holiday garb, and though it Is very scant, as yet, the shimniery
tinsel wound in and out of the branches, gives some Idea of what it
will look like Saturday evening.
it Is Nebraska's first Christmas tree, and now when the Christmas
spirit fairly tingles in the air, the magical appearance of the Christmas
tree on the campus Satuiday, will almost make us believe the stories
we heard when we were children that there are Christmas spirits who
change the appearance of all things, even to an old fir-tree on the
campus. ,
In the future a debater may be given recognition for his work by
the University. Believing that mental athletics is of even more repre
sentative importance to an educational institution than physical ath
letics, Dean Engberg declared at the Phi Alpha Tau banquet, Wednes
day evening that he proposed to do all that he could to establish
proper recognition for the debaters in the University.
The mental agility which is necessary to a good debater, far sur
passes, in practical value, the physical agility necessary to an athlete
And after all, recognition of achievements, though it is not neces
sary, by any means, is the fair and deserved acknowledgment of
another's accomplishments.

A HINDU PHILOSOPHER SAID
"I accept and revere the scriptures
so far as they are the records of the
wisdom and devotion and piety of in
spired geniuses, and the dealings of
God's providence in the salvation of
nations, of which records the spirit
is God's but the letter man's.
"I accept and revere the world's
prophets and saints, as far as they
embody and reflect the different ele
ments of the divine character and set
forth the higher ideals of life for the
instruction and sanctification of the
world.
"My creed is the science of God,
which enlfgh'eneth all. My gospel is
the love of God which saveth all. My
heaven is life In God which is accessi
ble to all. My church is that invisi
ble kingdom of God, in which is all
truth, all love, all holiness."
