Continuing its annual policy of giving Christmas cheer to the children of
Lincoln school, the Y. M. C. A. and
the Y. W. C. A., at a cabinet meeting
Tuesday night, December 11, voted
unanimously to sponsor a Christmas
tree and furnish "Santa Clnus" for
the children of tho primary and first
and second grades of this school. The
visit of Santa Thursday afternoon will
bring Christmas to 153 children enrolled in those three grades.
Plans for financing the tree were
adopted upon the suggestion of tho
committee in charge and it was
agreed that the custom of placing
boxes over the campus as has heretofore been the custom, will be abandoned this year, and only the box
under the decorated Christmas tree
near the Administration building will
be there for students who wish to
donate to the cause. It was further
agreed that students and. faculty
members be given a special opportunity to contribute at the convocation to
The Pitkin
be held next Tuesday.
Club, student luncheon club, and members of the Y. M. C. A. and Y. W. C.
A. cabinets, will furnish the remainder of the money necessary for the

tree.
Because the Christmas furnished by
the two organizations will be practically the only Christmas the majority of the children at Lincoln school
will receive, a special plea to the
students to contribute has been made
by Mr. Peak, secretary of the Y. M.
C. A. and Miss Lewis Lewis, secretary
of the Y. W. C. A., to contribute. The
money will be used to buy toys, fruits,
candies and nuts for the children.

The choice
is based on intellectual attainments,
combined with qualities of character,
leadership, and interest in outdoor
sports.
Rhodes scholars formerly were appointed for three years, but since it
is now possible for an American graduate to take a degree at Oxford in
two years, the trustees have authorized appointments for only two years.
The Rhodes scholars, just elected,
will begin their work at Oxford in
October, 1929. For the 32 scholar,
