TALK GIVEN SUNDAY
Miss Lucia C. Coulson of London,
England, Gives Annual
Lecture Sunday
The annual lecture of the Christian
Science Society was delivered Sunday
afternoon by Miss Lucia C. Coulson
of London, England. Miss Coulson is
a member of the Board of Lecture
ship of the Mother Church, The First
Church of Christ Scientists in Bos
ton, Mass.
Her lecture brought out very clear
ly several facts that are commonly
misapprehended by those who have
not made a study of Christian Science.
She stated that Christian Scientists
were not asked to believe anything,
but simply to prove the truths of
Christian Science every step of the
way. She also corrected the mis
taken idea that demonstrating this
truth is easy. It is not; and every
sincere Christian Scientist must work
ardently to understand and prove this
Science. Her lecture reads in part
as follows:
"It is said of me Messiah in the
book of Psalms, "Lo, I come to do
thy will, O God. and Christ Jesns
proceeded to show forth that good
will of Cod by healing the sick and
the sinner, feeding the multitudes,
and even raising the dead.
"It may be said of Christian Sci
ence also that it has come to do the
will of God and that it is showing
forth this good will in the same man
ner. It has come with a message of
salvation. It has come to show us
that the will of God for everyone Is
always happiness. It has come to
say to a world that Is torn with strife,
bowed down with cares, sick at heart
with Joss and poverty. These things
are not the will of God! Are you
rirk? Cod's will for yon is health
Are you poor? God's will for you is
plenty. Are you sad? The will of
God for you Is happiness. Are yon
dlscou.-aged? The good-will of God
for yon Is comfort and success. Is
any one without a God? Then
Christian Science offers you a God
who is both Father and Mother, who

The all-University carnival will be
held on a closed Saturday night, and
will be the biggest "all" party of the
entire year. It will be held the last
Saturday of this semester and will
be a fitting celebration for tho mid
point in the year's activities.
All University carnivals at Nebras
ka have not been hold for a number
of years. An effort is now being
made to revive them as an annual
tradition. Most of the class and hon
orary organizations have already got
ten behind tho movement and are
pushing it to the full.
Sororities art to bo asked to com
pete for places on the list of side
shows. Most of 'he class-rooms in
Social Science hall v.ill have to b
converted into side shows or stunt
rooms, and each group giving a stur
will be given a room in which to
present its stunt. Honorary and cla-s
organizations! are also to be aVed to
present stunts.
J. Wilbur Wolfe, chairman of the
1922 University night will sit in with
the regular committee and help in the
arranging of the stunts and side
shows. Wolfe has had much exper
ience in this line.

Campaign for Sale of 1923 Year

Following Holidays
"Your Cornhusker the winning
title in the contest conducted by
the management of this year's an
nual, was submitted by T. Piercs
Rogers, of Omaha, a senior in the
College of Arts and Sciences.
The title was selected from some
five hundred suggestions turned
in. "The 'Best' Cornhusker" in
honor of Nebraska's veteran train
er, as one of those which occurred
in duplicate. "Stadium Corn
husker," and "Victory Cornhusker"
practically divided honors with
"Wonder Book."
Audk-y N Sulivan, business man
ager of the 1923 Cornhusker, an
nounced last night the staff that will
assist in the handling of the busi
ness afairs of this year's Annual. It
is as follows:
Assistant Business Manager, Dave
Richardson.
Foreign Advertising Manager, Ed
ward Kubat.
Local Advertising ManageT, Carl

Sales Manager, Elbert Evans.
Circulation Manager, Leo Scherer.
Staff Stenographer, Leona Neff.

Sales and Circulation asistants

H. Cheyney, James H. Tyson.
The sales campaign under the guid
ance of Elbert Evans will be held
four days starting Monday, January
8, and will continue until Thursday
eight, January 11. Due to the Ne
braska spirit which has characterized
itself in all the student campaigns
held this year, no prizes will be
awarded to any individuals or soci
eties as in the past. A book like
the Cornhusker which is truly the
spirit which Nebraska wants to show
should be purchased by every stu
dent on the campus and it should not
be necessary to have to offer prize
for the sale, said the business man
anger. The book this year will be,
as Its name characterizes, "Your Corn
husker" and the editors are now
working hard to make it the best an
nnal which has ever been published.

strength to his team. He continual

to keep out of plays. In the Notre

through and nipped plays before they
were started. In the Syracuse game
he successfully checked all plays

against him. He was big and active,

CftMPUS CLUB HOLDS'
B!G CHRISTMAS PARTY
Decorations Very Artistic and
Excellent Prcsrram Presented
Dolls Sent to Hospital
Unusually artistic Christmas decor
ations were in evidence at the meet
ing of the Campus club at the
women's faculty rooms in the Temple
Tuesday evening. Dolls for the child
ren at the University hospital at
Omaha were dressed and sent as
Christmas presents.
The decorations, which were de
signed and made by the Interior Dec
orating and the Color Composition
classes under the direction of Miss
Hermine Stellar, assistant professor
of Drawing and Painting, will be left
in place from 11 til 1:30 today for
students and faculty members who
wish to view them.
Miss Marjorie Shanafelt of,Linco!n,
showed illustrated slides on, "The
Night Before Christmas" and refresh
ments of homemade canuy and pop
corn were served. Miss Stellar has
been chosen art adviser for the Cam
pus ClUlj tn this anoMa.
The decoration of the rooms for
the meeting was presented to the
students of the classes which decor
ated the hall as a problem. The
Christmas motive was taken as a sub
ject and plans submitted by each
student. The plan submitted by Miss
Frieda Amos was chosen and carried
out. The dominant color motive in
the decoration was a combination of
Christmas red and jade green with
blue, orange and black subordinated.
The following members of the art
classes worked out the details of the
general plan:
Daisy Rich. Huldah Johnson.
Everett Steele. Frieda Amos. Eula
liah Greiher. Clarissa Bucklin, Rose
Belohlavy. Gladys Lux, nGladys
Browning. Alta Loofe.
The Clristmas tree was timply
decorated, carrying out the idea of
the art classes to get away from the
commonplace and make the decora
tions original in every detail. Red
candles, boughs of evergreen, and
Christmas wreaths were arranged in
the windows. Christmas bells of red
and green shaded the lights. The
Bible story of Christmas was por-
t raved effectively in posters. Color
contrast was used to bring out strik
ing representations of the scenes dc
picted.
Armory Destroyed
By Fire at the Ames
College on Sunday
The R. O. T. C. Armory of the
Iowa State College was destroyed by
f)re late Sunday night. The loss Is
estimated as five hundred thousand
dollars. The Armory was completed a
little more than a year ago and was
thought to be fireproof. The cause of
the fire Is not known, tut It Is be
lieved to have started In one of the
storerooms. The firemen were ham
pered In their efforts to put out the
fire because of a Wrong wind and
because the hose were cut by a
street car.

"The Messiah" is the big mnslcal
event of the year, and town people
who are active In musical circles al
ways attend in large numbers. Until
this rear there has never been space
large enough to accommodate nearly
all the crowd cf Univresity and town
people who attend. It is hoped that
the enlargement of Memorial hall, by
the removal of the partitions, will re
lieve that condition. Since 1S95 the
chorus has not missed a single year
in giving "The Messiah" at a con
vocation near the beginning of the
Christmas holidays.
