PARABLES OF OUR LORD
(The Marriage Supper)
by Dr. A. G. 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.

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.

Local
Race prejudice must go. The Fatherhood of God
and the Brotherhood of Man must prevail. 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. An attitude to
ward our fellowman as a brother in order to establish a
principle which will guide the destiny of each other’s
children; our neighbor’s children today are our children
tomorrow.
(7) Courteous treatment in all places of business
and the enforcement of the State Civil Right Law.
(8) To encourage and assist in the establishment of
the following financial institutions near 24th and Lake
Streets: A building and loan association, a state bank,
administering aid and assistance to our widows and
children.
(9) To encourage the erection of a one hundred
thousand dollar Young Men’s Christian Association
Building near 24th and Lake Streets.
(10) To enlarge the Yoimg Women’s Christian As
sociation that it may supply sufficient dormitory accom
modations.
(11) To teach our citizens to live economically with
in their earning capacity by printing in each issue a bud
get system for various salaries.
(12) To make Omaha a better city in which to live
by inaugurating a more cosmopolitan spirit among our
American citizens.
(13 To put a stop to the Divorce Evil by passing a
State law making the mistreatment of a wife or a hus
band by either of them, a criminal offense to be decided
by a jury, first offense, jail sentence of a short duration;
from one to five years in the penitentiary. This, we be
lieve will make men and women think before marrying,
second offense, one of longer duration; third offense,
(14) We must become owners of the city govern
ment by paying a seemingly higher salary to those whom
we employ to administer its affairs, a salary that will at
and, also, a first-class trust company for the purpose of
tract men of high calibre.
National
(1) Fight for a passage of the Dyer Anti-Lynch Bill
and thus stop the shamful lynching of American citizens.
(2) One of our citizens in the president’s cabinet.
(3) Federal control of the educational system that
every child must have a high school education.
(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.
(8) Cut down congressional representation from
the Southern States in proportion to the number of votes
cast
The OMAHA GUIDE will put forth its best efforts
to bring about the above 22 points with the assistance of
those who believe it is for the best interest of good Amer
ican citizenship.
