Memorial Hall was comfortably filled last Sunday afternoon when Dr. Stein spoke on the theme "Where to Put the. Emphasis on Life." The cen tral thought of the address was that we aie primarily spiritual beings and that the materialistic views of the past few years are gradually yielding to the deeper spiritual truths. The Immaterial is the abiding quality while the ma terial is temporary and passes away. The immaterial and the spiritual are the most Important considerations of life. Dr. Stein maintained his high repu tation as a scholarly and entertaining speaker and was given "tho closest attention during his entire address.

The Mlsosurl "Independent" lepoits t hr- Missouri-Nebraska girls' basket ball game In pait as follows: "An audience of over 400 people was present at the Nebraska-Mlssouii basketball game last Friday night. A storm of applause greeted the two teams as they marched Into the gym nasium; Nebraska confident from be ing accustomed to victory; Missouri a trl'le nervous from being unaccustomed to playing before large audiences. "In only one position on the field was a Missouri glil taller than a Nebraska girl and that was in the case of Isa bel Johnson and her guaid. In tho other positions Nebraska had the ad vantage in height. But Missouri played Veil and the contest was exciting from start to finish. The Nebraska girls have excellent team work and know how to handle the ball. Miss Jansa did fine work as forward. Every time she got her hands on the ball she seemed to have n favorable position to throw and seldom missed the bas ket. At the end of the first half Ne braska realized that Mlsourl was more than she had bargained for and ramo buck for the second half determined to win. Both teams played In the spirit of friendly rivalry and the score was 19-H foi Nebraska. The sympathy of tho audience was with tho good play ing rather than with either team. "Mlsourl neer entertained a fairer team or fairer officials. Not once dur ing the. game was a decision ques tioned. The opinion of the Missouri girls about Nebraska gills cannot be Improved. Iney are girls who aie rep resentative of their University airl know how to do luher things besidir play basketball. At .Nebraska the have about 800 girls to choose a team from, and Missouri is wondering if all the Nebraska girls are as healthy, hearty, and robust as the representa tives they sont down bcre."

Thp Literary Department of tho 1905 Senior Annual has been" some what curtailed, In acocrdance with the generally expressed opinion that this department has been too long and tedi ous in former books. The few stories, however, are the product of the very best short story writers In the Univer sity, and a special effort has been made to make them more closely con nected with real University life than has hitherto been the case. The most promising Btory Is a romance of Franco of the fifteenth century. One of the popular instructors of the Rhetoric department has been transposed to thut thrilling and romantic time and country, and proves himself wonderful ly Imbued with the proper spirit.
