The abolition of the out-of-state tui

proval amonr the student body, as
all can now decorate their registra

number of entries from Lincoln and
Omaha will now take a decided drop.
Hare you seen the new dance steps?
The question seems to be whether the
step is backward or forward. From
the sidelines come looks of disgust and
pity but from the floor come smiles
and glances of satisfaction and joy.
The innocent bystander who really
has no opinion at all wonders which
set of looks and glances tells tie
truth.

What Says the Librarian?
"When the purpose for which a great
institution is founded has passed
away and the institution has devel
oped another and a greater purpose,
it is well to disregard entirely the
original intention of its founders and
to take every possible step to further
the interests of the new scheme of
things. Thus it is with the library.
Until a short time ago it was almost
universally believed that the library
was a place in which to study; but
such antiquated delusions have pass
ed; the scales have fallen from our
eyes and we see that that building is
now our greatest social center.
The merest glance into the great
reception hall on the second floor will
convince the stranger of this fact be
yond the shadow of a doubt As we
enter the door a pleasing murmur of
feminine voices strikes our ear and
we see row upon row of fair women
and brave men conversing at the
comfortable tables or easily reclining
in the chairs. Before most of the con
versationalists lie open books, it is
true but this may be easily nnder
rtod as respect for an outworn tradi
tion. There at the end of the table sits
Tlllie , looking archly about for
more hearts to conquer, and by her
side, dazzling Lhe sight with his bevy
of honor pins, is Tommy Brown, one
of the most prominent Seniors who
ever trod the campus. During the lulls
in conversation. Tommy refers list
lessly to his Oriental text book, and
Mary dabbles daintiy with her Domes
tic Housing. Now rings the curfew,
and TUlie and Tommy wander home
wards via the Varsity to continue
their delightful visit Ex.

A lot of you folks ought to be glad
that you are not pounding on the lin
ing of a padded cell and that God sl
ews you to keep your reason.
Ton ought to thank God that your
sons and fathers and husbands and
brothers and brethren are not ma
rooned in trenches with guns being
fired over their heads and their lives
in monietary periL
Did you evr tiani God for the
blessings of taste God might have
made our food taste like quinine or
farbage, but He dids t Did you e-cr
thank God that we d.n t have tc hold
our noses when we sit down at the
table?
Did you ever wake up in the morning
and thank God for a good night of
rest? If you haven't God ought to
keep you awake for a week.
Don't stand up and say: "III go
where Jesus bids me to go" and then
go to bed.
I am tired of a church of 500 or
TOO members without power enough to
bring one soul to Christ
If you don't let go of some of the
things you hold on to so tightly they
wOl drag you down to helL
If God Almighty only had posses
sion of your mouths. He'd stop your
lying, your knocking, your backbiting
and your swearing.
God doesn't run any excursions to
heaven. Ton must pay full fare
If you get religion and then lie
down and go to sleep your joints will
get stiff as Rip Van Winkle's did and
youH never win the religious mara
thon.
If a man gives his wife a ten cent
pin cushion at Christmas to show how
much he loves her he's a geezer the
devil's stuck on.
God doesn't want you to look and
act as if religion affected you like
the toothache or a corn. If it does
It isn't God's kind. Donf look as if
you were wearing a No. 22 corset when
you ought to have a 28 on.
One trouble with a great many com
munities ia that the wrong gang got
there first and started the godless, ir
religious, sneerLig caste, and they
never amount to anything until a lot
of these old lobsters die off.
I have known boys to make a suc
cess in life who had an old material
istic Ireligious reprobate for a father.
but I never knew of one to succeed
who had a godless, card Slavic
mother.
Ton are going crazy over the cul
ture, clubs, libraries and morals are
going down. Ton are getting back to
the heathen days. Wealth and cul
ture didn't save Greece and It will
never save America.
Do you suppose that God wants to
work with hands that are lifting ber
glass one moment a deck of cards or
a novel the next? Do you suppose that
God wants to use feet that can walk
I Into a booze joint or a house of El
ifame one debt and Into chnrrh nn
Sunday?
It is not the will of God that any
church member should be a booze
fighter or a gambler.
Where did you lose the joy that was
once yours? PJght back there where
yon sidestepped virtue and winked at
another woman.
Ie got Just as good a right to pat
nj aims around a woman and waits
over a dancing floor as you have, but
if I did you wouldn't think muck of
me.
What motive prompted yon to join
the church? Was it because yon
thought It would ret yon vote or
trade, or was it to afford yon an op
portunity to walk down the aisles late
to show what fine dads yon have?
If God thinks I can advance His
cause any abetter is the coffin, I am
ready.
One of the biggest farces of the
church today Is the prayer meeting.
There are scores of church members
who say they cant go. Ton lie. Ton
can come here night after night bat
cant go to prayer meetings.
I want the preachers to take a good
look at yon. They'll not see some of
yon again until the next revival unless
yon are at a wedding or a funeral.
Any church that does not believe
in the divinity of Jesus Christ heaven
or hell, isn't authorized by God, and
if a church isn't authorized by God
it degenerates Into a third-rate amuse
ment bureau.
The last thing people give to Christ
is their tongues.'
"Each of you should be a fisher
of men."
"The preachers are chasing fads in
stead of souls."
"Thousands of college graduates are
going as fast as they can straight to

will save men. The best education is
knowledge of the Bible."
"Some churches think the preacher
is a sort of ecclesiastical locomotive.
who will snort and puff and pull the
whole bunch through to glory."
"The only reason we know it's a
prayer meeting is because it comes on
Wednesday night"
"If the Lord calls and yon don't
hear and have good hearing, it's your
fault"
"I want to tell you that ministers
ought to get out and mix up with
people instead of being staid and stiff
and limiting their personal work to
spouting in the pulpit"
"You say I hurt your feelings.
Then don't spread your feelings all
over or it will be my business to
tramp on them. Keep them buttoned
up under your dress."
"If you are a Christian, you are
wise. If yon are trying to do right
you are wise. If you believe there is
a God, you are wise. If yon don't you
are a fooL"
"The people of the church are like
squirrels in a cage. Lots of activity.
but accomplishing nothing."
Playing cards doesn't hurt me, yon
say. It sends thousands of souls to
hell, and for decency's sake can't yon
give it np."
"Ton can't live half the time with
one man and the other half with an
other man, and trot square with both
of them."
Tno'd just as well be millionaires
in grace as to be hoboes counting the
ties over God's division."
"The dance is a quagmire of wreck
age." "Tou can be a member cf the
church and a burglar, too."
"There are men whose religion and
honor hang like meat in a butcher
shop; for sale at so much a pound."
"Away with the hellish doctrine of
a double standard of living in the
twentieth centry. It makes no differ
ence whether a sinner wears a plug
hat or a petticoat"
"Man has cut for his own ue a
pathway below that marked by God.
but be insists that his wife keep to
the old and higher one.".
There is many a fellow looking in
my face who. if his wife did what
he does, would be whining around the
courts for a divorce."
