These immortal words of Jesus of Nazareth, spoken nearly two thousand years ago, live today more vital and strong than ever before. Whatever progress man has made in his upward climb toward civilization, has been made in the direction of this. ideal. What else is the Christmas spirit, but an expression in word or deed of this everlasting precept? The giving of gifts, the exchange of spoken or written messages of good cheer, are not but an echo of the words of the Master. This world of ours is a wonderful place in which to live; a wonderful place in which to work, and love, and serve. Life is all too brief fob mostt of us to accomplish all the many things we should like to do for those we love, dime is so short; getting and spending we lay waste our powers. Tomorrow, next week, sometime we will do the things we have planned to do, say the encouraging things we have planned to say, perform the little acts of kindness we have so wanted to perform. Let us not, during this season of Yuletide and throughout the coming year, allow indifference and procrastination to rob us of the greatest joy that comes to the heart of mortal man. For Whomever shall lose his life shall find it in the service of his fellow men, and shall have life and live abundantly. ..

The keynote address ' was given by N. Gunar Rasmussen, Managing editor of the Logan In his talk Mr. Rasmussen gave, what he thought to be the qualifications of good reporters, stressing the fact that a broad foundation, with a college training, is very necessary. He also stated that a good reporter is always accurate and prompt with his assignments. At 12 o'clock noon, the crowd assembled on the steps of the ladies gym where a picture was taken. Immediately after the students assembled in College Hall where they were served a box lunch by the Division of Journalism. During the luncheon a stage show was presented by the Omegu Nu. The delegates again assembled in The College Hall at 1:30 p. m. opening address was given by Mr. Mark Peterson, managing editor of the Deseret News. Mr. Peterson presented the fact that the school paper is the show window of the school and that the paper should uphold the school tradition. The second speaker, M. E. Baker, Salt Lake manager of the Associated Press, gave sketches of what Press is doing the Associated throughout the world. The Salt Lake manager of the Western Newspaper Union, Mr. John K. Jones, related to the Assembly how newspapers began in America and how the Union had grown from colonial times. The day closed with the delegates separating again into their depart ments where various problems of each were discussed.. last drive which was made for the collection of depository fees was reported to be a great success and the committee was elated over its outcome. According to a report submitted by the editor, Stewart Crandall. The year book is to be the best ever published by Lincoln and is to be strictly study work. No professional help will be accepted. No partiality to seniors is to be shown, and all pictures will be the same size and to have the same placing. There is to be an achievement section which will replace the popular lady idea which has been a feature of other year books. In this section will be placed pictures of those students who have achieved in any achievement, be it sports or schoAlso a student lastic records. achievement index will be issued to avoid listing the achievement opposite the students picture. All in all it is to be a year hook of the students, not just a few. When the book is completed it will be one that every student of Lincoln may be proud to own.
