Bearer (The Literary Service Bureau) Text: And five of them were wise and five were foolish—Matthew 25:2. Human experience has demonstrat ed the philosophy of Solomon’s dec laration, “The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom.” It means also, as a concomitant principle, that to neglect spiritual things is the acme of folly. This is signified in the use of the terms wise and foolish, in this text. Briefly given, the lessons are these: Human equality in Divine dealing —all were invited, both the wise and the foolish; Danger of negligence— “They all slumbered and slept”; Lack of preparation for emeregeneies they found their lamps going out, and had no oil with which to replenish them; Personal responsibility—they were told “Go and buy for yourself, lest there be not enough for us and for you;” Danger of last honr prep aration—while they went to buy. the bridegroom came—and passed once, End of opportunity—“And the door was shut” Since the most earnest pleading and the most insistent and persistent explainations will not avail when once the end of opportunity for salva tion has come, the only insurance or assurance against the fate of the fool ish virgins is wisdom which prompts to make full and ample preparation. IF YOU CANT DANCE, and You Can’t Sing—You will get Your Money’s Worth Looking and Listen ing at the Annual Musician’s Ball, March 27th at Dreamland Hall. THE NEBRASKA LEGISLATURE by 0. J. BURCKHARDT The Legislature is steadily grind ing along with many perplexing’ pro blems yet in front of them to be solv ed. The famous Newbaurer license Bill which was relifted in the House was approved by the senate and was signed by the Governor. It carries with it an emergency clause that will enable the thousands of people who are waiting and watching the situa tion to get their license for all cars from 2800 down for $3.00 and above 2800 for $5.00 and all who have al ready bought their licenses will be refunded their money paid above the present price. There is now an important bill be fore the house which substitutes for house roll 418. This bill is for an act concerning the general welfare of the people relating ot public policy on the unemployment compensation under the control of the department of lab or; providing for a six hour day and five day week on public work; provid ing a minimum wage and adminis tration provision for loans from the federal government to the state, counties, towns and villages and other political subdivisions of the state re pealing all acts or parts of acts in conflict herewith. Section 4 of this bill reads thus: The employment un der this provision shall be extended. First to the citizens of Nebraska; second, to citizens of the U. S. re gardless of creed, race or color. If this enactment is carried out it will open to our race doors that are now closed. The Legislature will have its hands full this week in trying to carry out the administrative pledges, the code law repeal and repeal of the intang ible tax, salary reductions, auto lic ense fee revision and insurance mor atorium. An enactment of an income tax are among the matters hanging fire in the upper and lower house this week. These matters must be settled before the work of the big budget bills are taken up looking to the end of the session. The house and senate revenue com mittee members discussed Monda; night in a joint meeting the gros: income and sales tax. The Nebraska Legislature as i whole will stand pat for the veteran’ funds. Veterans all over the coun try are becoming aroused over wha indicates drastic reductions in admin istrative relief and compensation t< be imposed by President Roosevelt but Nebraska service men have bui little cause for fear of that measure affecting the appropriation of thu state, this has been indicated by the house, finance committee which is now considering the general approp. nations measures. Governor Bryai has asked the Legislature to set a. side $59,610.00 as an appropriatioE for 33-35 compared to $60,220 twc years ago. If this sum is approved by the house and senate, which at j this writing I am sure it will be, there need not be any worry on the I part of the Nebraska veterans. The house claims committee voted to cut 20 percent from the jail feed ing claims of county sheriffs. The claim for feeding after other items had been stricken amounted to $38, 855 of which $31,099 was for Douglas County. RAY L. WILLIAMS, Atty.

These . are the only principles which will stand the acid test of good citizenship in time of peace, war and death. t (1) We must have our pro-rata of employment in businesses to which we give our patronage, such as groc ery stores, laundries, furniture stores, department stores and coal companies, in fact every concern which we sup port. We must give our citizens the chance to live res pectably. We are tired of educating our children and permitting them to remain economic slaves and enter in to lives of shame. 7 (2) Our pro-rata of employment for the patronage 1 to our public corporations such as railroad companies, the street car company, the Nebraska Power Company’ 1 the Northwestern Bell Telephone Company and other s establishments which we are forced to support by right of franchise. Also our pro-rata of employment in re : turn for the taxes we pay in our city, county state and federal government. (3) To encourage the establishment of a first class hospital that we may get the best that there is in medical science from our doctors whom we know to be nearest us, also to encourage a high respect of them and encourage more of our girls to take nurse training. (4) A one hundred per cent deportment of our cit izens in our public or private places of business, especial ly on street cars. If we are to be respected we must act respectably, especially in public places where we are con stantly before the public’s eye. (5) A one hundred per cent membership in the Om aha branch of the NAACP. should be had to encourage the efforts put forth by the founders of the organization and to assist the general office to establish a five million dollar endowment fund to maintain operating expenses and to further the principles of the NAACP. All peo ple of all races must be educated up to a higher principle and a more thorough understanding of interracial rela tionship that our country may in reality be a government of the people, for the people and by the people in whole and not in part. (6) The re-establishment of the Christian Religion as Christ taught it, for the uplifting of mankind, elimin ating financial and personal gain. A practical Christian Religion, week day as well as Sunday.

(4) Assist in the furtherance of research by our scientists and historians to prove that civilization was first founded in Africa. (5) Establish a political influence which will bring about our pro-rata of higher appointments made by our chief executives. (6) Stop graft in politics by passing a Federal Law making election day a legal holiday and compelling every American citizen of voting age to vote. (7) Prevent further wars by teaching the so-called white race that it is high time for them to quit fooling themselves about white supremacy with only three-tenths of the world’s population. They must be taught that color is due to climatic conditions. They must be taught that seven-tenths of the world’s population is made up of darker races. They must be taught that the rays of sun that blaze upon the equator and turn the skin brown do not affect the power of the brain any more than the cold ness of icy glaciers affect the brain of the white race; and that the darker races will not continue to be crushed by a money mad few. If the Fatherhood of God and the Brotherhood of Man are not welded into the hearts of this world’s family now, by teaching the principles laid down by our Saviour, it will be welded into the hearts of our children some day soon, on the bloodiest battlefields this world has ever known.
