at the University.
A building costing $50,000 to bo Used
for a religious and social center 1.1
bring planned by the Methodist
church for the students of, that do
nomination now attending the Uni
versity of Nebraska.
The Methodist churches of the state
maintain a student pastor at tiie Uni
versity of Nebraska, Dr. Hairy F.
Huntington. Tho work among the
university students is handicapped
because of the lack of a suitable
building.
A meeting will be he'd Monday eve
ning at the Grand hotel at which
Bishop Homer C. Stuntz will speak.
All Methodist students in the univer
sity are invited to this dinner which
will be held at ( o'clock.
A campaign is now ' ,being con
ducted for the Nebraska Wesleyan
university. This campaign closes Dc
remb.-" 21. A part of the pr-.riim
i'or the campaign is provide $25,000
for a Methodst building at the Uni
versity of Nebraska. An additional
$25,000 will be given toward the build
ing by the Centenary fund
The University of Nebraska is
friendly toward this enterprise being
conducted by the Methodist church.
Chance'lor Samuel Avery in a letter
to Dr. Huntington, Methodist univer
sity pastor, said: "Wo cannot, I sup
pose, hope to have anything com
parable with the wonderful plant at
Illinois and the building that have
been erected at some other universi
ties, but if we can even make a mod
est beginning it will greatly help the
work. I believe too that if the Meth
odist poop! ) of Nebraska will do this
it will set an example to the people
o!" other denominations and that treat
good will result."
Annual Visit of
Cold Dormitories
Is Now in Vogue
Some four hundred students of tho
University of Nebraska have during
the last few weeks been experienc
ing a new something in their lives.
That is cold fraternity house dormi
tories. With the early but short visits cf
Jack Frost this, fraternity and sor
ority freshman have been given their
tirst taste of what the frozen north
feels like. Probably no place in the
world is colder on a cold night than
fraternity dormitories.
But such is the life of the living
together under one roof bearing their
favorite Greek name. Thirty or forty
men will not sleep in one room with
tho windows clewed and since the
arguments for, open windows are
stronger than those for closed win
dows, the windows are open.
Whirling in at one end of the dor
mitory at what seems eighty miles
per hour, the wind 'plays down up
on the sleeping students unmerciful
ly. Covers are none too thicK on
the beds so everything Which can in
the least serve to further keep the
occupants of said beds warm is
pressed into service. Overcoats,
sweaters, .bathrobes and what not
must do night and day service for
it would he an unthought of thing to
allow friend Frost fo get the best of
you.
And such is the life of the fra
ternity man. The first night of cold
weather reminds him of the warm
quilts at home and immediately is
dispatched a letter to friend Mother
nsirinir that her warmest bed -clothes
he xnressed to the city of Lincoln
so that her dear son might not De

Sounds foolish woll It was a sort of

but every girl who was there will
stick by the original statement.
And fellows! You should have seen
tho "dads" men who paraded in tuxe

That is the next benevolent act
which tho studonts both men and

In the city of Lincoln this, year
there would be hundreds of children
who would not have a Christmas were
it not for the Community Tor, Shop
started by Lincoln women vim the
View of playing Santa Claus to a'l
children who would otherwise prob

men, with their big charitable hearts,

Ask Students to Give T'rr;e.
That is where tho University of
Nebraska students can show their

HAROLD F.- HOLTZ.
t
This is the man who is responsible for the Alumni Slogan Con
test. A typical Ilusker, isn't he?
He firmly believes that an appropriate slogen will aid the
Alumni Journal greatly in fulfilling its- mossion. There
is no room for argument here he is right.
The next thing is, of course, to get the slogan. Accordingly,
this contest.
ONLY A WEEK
Just one more week is left to get your slogan in to the contest
managers. The contest closes at 6 p. m. Saturday. The
results will be announced in the Nebraskan Sunday, De
cember 18.
You still have a chance. Every slogan submitted will be
given careful and just consideration by the judges.
Read This Every Day.

Play Santa Claus
And that is the donation which the
women running the top shop aie ask
ing of the University of Nebraska stu
dents. Those few minutes when
these young men and women can drop
into the shop and help repair some
of the slightly broken toys or when
it gets time to distribute the toys,
help do that.
Many of tho toys are such that stu
dents in the university could very
oasily make the repairs. Then there
are many dolls which need new dress
es. The girls of the university caa
drop into the shop for a few minutes
each week and make a dress or two.
If many of the students do this, all
of the work in the shop can be ac
complished otherwise some children
are going to either be disappointed
when it comes around to the time foi
the visit of Santa Claus or else they
will have to receive toys which could
be made much better with lb" wor.i
which can be accomplished in a low
minutes.
Several of the Lincoln storesvhich
handle toys of all kinds have sent
.iver huge piles of toys most of which
are in excellent condition but ean be
fixed up better with a little work.
Fraternities and sororities of the
university are expected to volunteer
help in the work of repairing and
distributing the toys. The Alpha Chi
Omega sorority and the Alpha Tau
Omega fraternity have already sent
word to the shop that they will give
some help. Other university organ
izations are expected to send in help
soon.

some discussion it was decided to
have a dance soon after Hie Christ
mas holidays for University Masons
and De Mulays. The committee in
charge of this party is to be composed
of Robert Van Pelt, chairman; Clin
ton Roye:-, Richard Talbot, John Vet

ALL UNIVERSITY
Eig Party Will be Held December
17 Entire Evening Will be
Spent in Dancing.
The committee which has c'aarvo
of tho All-university parties announc
es that next Saturday, December IT,
there will be held an All-university
mixer dance.
The party will be in charge of the
chairman of tho various committees
and will be somewhat different from
the parties held heretofore in that
the entire evening will be taken up
In dancing. It Is the practice of many
universities to have several of these
mixer dances or as they arc some
times called "assembly dances ' dur
ing the year and thus it in fiought
that they should prove popular al
Nebraska.
The dance will be held in the arm
ory and the admission price wili he
the same as for the regular parties
put on by the committee. Arrange
ments haver already been made for a
poppy orchestra and the refreshment1
committee is looking out n.t'ler t'.'.e
eats. Facilities for checking will be
made and special attention will be
given to the procuring of dane part
ners, whether they be men or v. nmen.
It has been felt that the greatest
need at the general parties was tho
lack of co-operation by the people at
tending to help thp members of the
committees to get the people ac-
attainted with one another. Arrengo
ments are being made so tho! every
one may secure dance pnrtncis and
thus no one shouVl feel that they
should stay away just because they
do not have a date. The foremost
nurnose of the party is to cive to
the people who do not nave any reg
ular university function to fo to that
night, a place whore they may go and
meet university people and have en
enjoyable evening.
Contest Manager Confidis
In Porter But
Mum's The Word
By R. E. Porter.
The managers of the slogan contest
let us in on a little secret. They
confided to us, strictly on the q.
of course, that they have receivel
scarcely a couple of dozen slogans
and they feel just a mite discouraged.
Now this is just between you and us,
understand, to please don't let It go
any farther.
We felt rather flattered when th?
managers shared their lale of woo
with us and we wouldn't for the wor'd
have them know that we passed it on
to you. Mum's the word, see?
We, being so humanitarian by nat
,ira nnnrt stand to see anyone in
difficulty without offering succor.
The purpose of this little tirade, there
fore, is to attempt to stimulate the
flow of slogans into the hands of the
contest managers which, to date, has
not been very steady or voluminous.
May and more are the reasons why
every student in this great and fam
ous University should enter this slo
gan contest We could begin by tell
ing you it is a duty and finish by
pointing out that it is a privilege and
an opportunity. Here are a few r-fj
the "high spots:"
You may win the beautiful Corn
husker oh boy!
And. alone w 1 i the victory goes
the publicity good stuff.
The literary training will benefit
you slogan writing is an art.
You will aid In a movement to sup
port a University activity the Alum
ni Journal.

You will Lelp the contest managers
God knows they need it.
