Professor Gregg pointed out that Lincoln was always profit ably occupied. Ho did not have the opportunities to upend his time on ainutements which surround the modern young man, said the speaker. "The real child-labor problem of all times, and particularly of our own," said Mr. Gregg, "is not, moroly so much to protect the child from labor as it is to Inculcate ln I him habits or industry. An auuuue lor productive activity was ono of the significant social heritages of! the Great Emancipator and greatly helped to make him what ho finally became" Professor Gregg touched upon the religious training of Lincoln, old of his first oxperlenco ln tho Hold of law, and'recountcd many in cresting events from the life of Lincoln which aro not generally l;nown. WERKMEISTER SPEAKS ON YOUTH MOVEMENT Continued from FSKfi 1. ,or Werkmeister, "and whllo I was i here I was closely connected with the German youth movement aud was well acquainted with its prin ciples." Hocause of tho Inflexibility and strictness of the life of Oer; man students, Fisher, a young Gor man student with several followers started an organization and spent a crest deal of time with it until at he present time there are 2,000,000 members In the German youth movement. Students in German universities were l'orruorly compelled to study only classical literature and affairs of the government. Young men and young women had no social rela tionship at all and these onuses 'tltlm.'itely forced tho modern youth in Germany to sponsor a movement oi their own which was not super i?ed by any adult, a movement which gave them freedom in poli tics, study and In religion. Many of the Ideals of the Gor- uua you li movement are now j recof nlzed by German authorities j and gradually tliey are accepting: they are 'in organization which at first was i s'rongly opposed by German au' j a- . . ijcrman and American Un versi-, ".es can not bo compared, explained Doctor Workmolster, as tho quali fications for entering are so vastly dllferent. A student entering a 'ierman university requires an edu 'at Inn e.qual to that of a Senior In au American university. Special music for the evening was a piano solo, played by Lois I'lynn. Helen Griggs led the serv ices for the evening. KLUB ANNOUNCES PRINCIPAL PARTS OP SPRING SHOW Cniillnurxl from rnte I. of Nebraska, Is being planned by the Klub.
