What report of Nebraska In China
will go to Grace Conpock when this
week is over concerning her Alma
Mater?
The Red Cross rooms are open all
day today. Bandages are needed.
Have you spent- your hour there this
week ?
CONVOCATION TODAY
Even the busiest student can not
afford to miss hearing Dr. J. Wilbur
Chapman, moderator of the general
assembly of the Presbyterian church,
discuss "What's the Use of Re
ligion?" at Convocation this morning
at 11 o'clock In Memorial hall.
Dr. Chapman Is a world figure. He
s an eloquent speaker. He recently
spoke at Convocation at the Univer
sity of Kansas and his audience
was the largest Kansas Convocations
have known for years.
Students who were at the lunch
' eon given in Dr. Chapman's honor
yesterday noon, and who heard him
speak them, are enthusiastic about
the man. "He is wonderful," "I
could have listened to him all after
noon," were some of the comments
of his hearers.
Most of us will appreciate a
straightforward discussion of the use
of religion by a man who is a rec
ognized authority on the subject.
Students often realize that1 they can
no longer sincerely believe as they
have formerly believed. Just as
races of people often undergo re
ligious reformations as they reach
higher states of civilization, so often
must the individual change his re
ligious beliefs to fit his changed In
tellectual level.
Perhaps Dr. Chapman will answer
the very problem we have been
vainly trying to solve.

OF SPRING RECITAL
Portrayal of French Romance
by University Chorus Men
and Women Practice Tonight
The spirit of France in all its
romance and glory is to be portrayed
in the cantata. "Joan d'Arc" In the
near future at Convocation when the
University ..chorus renders its big
Spring recital. Weeks and weeks of
faithful rehearsing are beginning to
show the polish and finish with
which this concert will be presented,
and the director. Mrs. C. B. Raymond, is
having the men and women practice
together as the home stretch Is
neared. Tonight at 7:00 o'clock the
entire organization will meet and
Mrs. Raymond urges all members to
be present promptly so the parts
can take their pitch -as the clock
strikes 7. This rehearsal will take
the place of the one set for Friday
evening.
This is the first time that "Joan
d'Arc" has been given in cantata
form in Lincoln and the chorus is
doing splendidly on it. There are
over a hundred members and al
though the boys are greatly in the
minority they are holding down their
end of the harmony in great style.
Practices are held In the art hall,

CHANCE FOR NEBRASKA
WOMAN TO SEE FRANCE
Co-Ed Trained in Agriculture
Needed to Direct Reclama
tion of Ruined Fields
An opportunity for a Nebraska
woman to go to France to serve n
a ' position other than that offered
by the Red Cross comes In a com
munication received by Miss Blanche
Grant of the Art departtnent recent
ly saying that there was at present
a demand for a woman trained in
agriculture to direct In the reclama
tion of the ruined fields of devastated
France.
This offer to a Nebraska woman
was sent by the officers of the so
ciety for civilian relief work in
France of which Mrs. Dike and Miss
Anne Morgan of New York are direct
ing and largely financing. The work
is recognized by the Red Cross and
is auxiliary to it.
The appeal is made to Nebraska

Nebraska Heads List
Nebraska stands first among all
the states in the Union in the per
capita subscriptions to the War Sav
ings Stamps. In the big drive that
will commence about the Cth of April,
for the third Liberty loan. Nebraska
intends to hold this record, or even
better it At any rate it is certain
that the University of Nebraska will
do Its share. Already the Faculty
Patriotic league is making plans for
a big drive In University circles, and
the Business Women's league is plan
ning to make a thorough canvas of
University women. The latest Lib
erty Loan is likely to exceed In size
the others that have gone before.
Some believe that 6 or 7 billions will
be the sum asked for. The interest
rate will also be higher than on the
other loans. This will be the last
chance for University people to give
to the government, as a distinct
body, and It is expected that they
will surpass all previous records
made.
