VOGATiONAL LECTURE
SERIES INCOMPLETED
Miss Bennett Gives List of Ques
tions Each Girl Should ask
Herself.
Miss Helen Bennett completed he.-
series of four talks on vocational
subjects, with "The Keeper of the
King's Conscience," at EKeu Smith
Hall last night at lve o'clock. The Y
W. C. A. turned its regular Vesper
hour over to Miss Bennett. Miss Ben
nett spoke to the freshmen, especially,
at eleven o'clock in Social Science
Auditorium, on the "Road to Tomor
row." ti,o taiw to fho freshman was u
practical one on how to choose an
occupation. In doing this there are
three thing a girl must keep in mind:
(1) 'What do I want to do?" (2)
'What can I do?' (3) "Wbat is prac
tical for me to do?" After reviewing
this in her mind. Miss Bennett, gave
hve tests for the girl to apply
fcmiPRtlv. to herself. (1) Am I a
leader or a folower? (2) "Am I orig
iual or imitative?" (3) "Am I active
or satic?" (4) Am I a roamer or a
stav-at-homeer?" (5) "Am I a talker
or a silent person?" Miss Bennett
advised the girls to take in her college
courses things which she has not had
in life, for it is in the college that
the girl builds up a back-ground for
any occupation that she intends to
follow. Miss Ruth Lindsay presented
Miss Bennett. The Mystic Fish, fresh
man honorary sorority, was in charge
of the meeting.
Ellen Smith Hall was crowded for
the last talk, "The Keeper of The
King's Conscience." Miss Jean Holt,
member of the W. S. G. A. board
was In charge of the meeting. In
this talk Miss Bennett presented three
qualities that make for success in any
line of work. ,They are: (1) "the
Necessity of Personal Contacts," (2)
"the ability to do a tremendous
amount of work," (3) "courage." The
person who does the most amount of
work, not required of him is the one
who Is more apt to succeed. The
clock-watcher never gets far. The
keeper of the king's conscience was
an ancient order of officer who saw
that justice was carried on in the
country outside the law, in order that
the king's conscience could remain
clear. So It Is with the successful
person who does that which is beyond
the actual requirements. Miss Ben-
net remarked that the Nebraska
Girls' Creed was the best thing of the
kind she had seen.

pairs being determined by chance, just
ae individuals are drawn for a tourna
ment in a "blind" draw.
The nations that meet in the first
round are notified of the date which
their matches must be completed. It
is then their duty to agree upon the
time and place for holding the match
and if they fail to agree, they must
nav at a time set by the champion
,
For an entry of fourteen four rounds
are required to bring out tne winning
nation that will meet the United
States in the challenge round, which
will take place at the West Side Ten
ds Club, Forest Hills, on September
i 2 and 4. The final round will be
played at Newport the week of August
14 and the semi-final matches will be
scheruled for the week preceding, to
be played probably on August 10, 11
and 12.
Depending upon the terms which
survive the early matches and come
to this country, it now appears likely
that some of the world's most famout
tennis players will eb seen on Am
erican courts this summer. Nichlas
Mishu of Roumania, whose playing
abroad was one of the sensations of
the European season in 1921, expects
to play, as does Manuel Alonao of
Spain, who has become even more
prominent abroad. Gerald L. Patter
son whos e game attracted much at
tention when he won the world's
championship in 1919 will visit the
United States and Zenso Shimidzu or.
Japan also will compete here.

SAYS
IS
FULL OF WORDS OF
Teutonic Element is Fundamental
of the Whole English
Language.
ELEMENTARY WORDS ARE
NEARLY ALL GERMANIC
'Progress of a Living Language
is Never Stopped," De
clares Fossler.
"The Germanic element in thf Eng
ish lun.cuago is vitally impor'ant bc
ausp love, hate and practically all the
fundamental emotions are cxpKfesed
only by words of Germanic origin,"'
declared Prof. Lawrence Fossler of
'he Gorman department in his lecture
on "The Sourcos of the English Lan-
suage" given this week as a Fresh
man lecture. In Tennyson's pnems
.inly two words of the Romancf Lan
guages are used; in the "Lords Pray
er" but five words other than Ger
manic are used; and in the Twenty
Third Psalm" only three other ate
employed-
Professor Fossler stated that Eng
lish is the greatest "hodgpodge" cf
any language on the face of tin globe
at the present time as it is a combin
ation of two separate branches of ihe
Tiido-Europoan family of languages
the Germanic and the Latin. For ii.at
reason there are no real Englisn syno
i.yms. What aro called synonyms, overlap
each other, but neither covers entire
ly the same ground as does the other.
The rc-son for this is fouad in the
fact that at the time of the Ncrmar
in v; sion, which introduced French or
rather mutilated Latin into E&nland,
h- French had different words than
those usr.tti by the Angles, Saxcns and
Danes of England.
Fight Between Languages
Thni began a fight between the
two languages for supremacy,' Ti:-
lessor Fossler continued. "Naturally,
hence the Frenchmen were the rulers
h.ost words whi;.h pertain to the uc-.
per classes are now of French origin
in English, while most of those such
as home, ox and plow are of Germanic
migin. Sometimes both the French
r;nd English words were kept, how
ever, and today we call them syno
nyms. An illustration of this is found
in the case of different ginds cf live
stock. The Saxon and Danish serfs
who tended the livestock called their
charges such names as "ox," "sheep,"
"pig." The French cook who prepared
the meat for his lord immediately
turned him into "beef," "mutioc,"
'veal." Today we have both names,
but they cannot be called synonyms.
The diference between many words is
not so pronounced, but it 's always
there.
"We must all know the meaning of
the words," Professor Fossler sail,
"but to know the real meaning, thi
soul of the word, we must look to the
dictionary for something els buiides
its definition. Look to see the deriva
tion and you will find some of the big
secrets of the English language. Take
'flea" for instance. It implies noth
ing more than that wnen on - uj i
put his thumb on a flea, the flea has
fled-
'This and every other language is
always changing," continued Pro(essc-
Fossler. "The King James Bible can
not be read now without finding a
multitude of words and phrase3 that
are unintelligible. Take the instanco
where it states something aboul
"pleasing kine," what was the mean
ing but 'Good-loking cows?' The
'King James Bible' was prep.i.d but
three hundred years ago; in one hun
dred years more the Inhabitant of
of America and England will b;?in to
look on the writing of today as an
tique. The progress of a living lan
guage is never stopped."
