city papers on Sunday morning, ac
cording to an announcement made
by Arthur Latta, president of the
Kosmet Klub, Monday afternoon.
"There were so, many exceptional
tryouts and so many talented people
to take every part on the list that
the Klub had a hard time to make
the final decisions," said president
Tatta. "However, the list has been
completed and is in the hands of the
executive dean for a complete check
of the scholarship of the people
chosen."
The Klub will meet again Thurs
day night. At this time those of the
cast who have been ruled off by
scholarship delinquencies will be re
placed. The business and activity
assistants will also be chosen Thurs
day and the entire staff and cast of
the play ready for publication Sun

act will be called for practice.
The applications of business and
activity assistants will be received

ning, accord in? to the business man
ager of the Klub. "Dependable ap
plicants are needed to carry on the
business and activity end of the
show," said the business manager.
"This department is one of the most
important divisions."
Kosmet Klub alumni will handle
the business arrangements for stag
ing the production at the Brandeis
theater in Omaha, Saturday, April
25.
Show Will Ba Better.
A canvas of the members of the
Kosmet Klub brought forth a gen
eral sentiment that the show of 1925
will be far more sucesful than those
of the past. The Klub members ex
pressed themselves as enthusiastic
over the prospects and were more
than satisfied at the results of the
tryouts.
"There are some very talented
people who did not make the play
this year but we hope it will not pre
vent them from trying again next
time. Strong competition means
that our plays will be more and more
successful each year," said one of
the members of the Klub.

Donlares Students Wanning l o

California Secretary Says Ap

That many students who are plan

subjects, is the belief of Mrs. May
L. Cheney, appointment secretary of
the University of California. Mrs.
Cheney says that "although we have
more applicants than positions, we
cannot fill the demand for teachers
because many of them cannot teach
the subjects for which there is a
demand."
Mrs. Cheney went on to say that
there are no more candidates for
teaching than for any other profes-
tfifft.
During the past year at the Uni
versity of California there have Deen
2557 applicant for positions na
only 2120 calls for teachers. For

DYE TO SPEAK
TO DISCIPLES
Pioneer Missionary From Con
go Region Will Speak at
Banquet Thursday.
TICKETS MAY BE GOT
FROM STUDENT PASTOR
a
Dr. Royal J. Dye, pioneer mission
ary from the Belgian Congo region
in Africa, will speak at the semester
banquet of the Disciples Club, cam
pus organization of the Christian
church, from six and eight o'clock
Thursday evening at the Grand ho-
tel. Tickets can be obtained from
members of the club or at the office I
of the University pastor, J. W. Hil
ton, in the Temple.
In 1809 Dr. and Mrs. Dye were in
the group which began the work at i
Bolengo in the Belgian Congo, a !
thousand miles inland from the west
coast of Africa. The early days were
illed with hardships and dangers.
The great majority of the people in
the back country were cannibals and,
as Bolengo is on the equator, the
climate was unhealthful.
For many vears Dr. Dye was the.
only doctor within 1100 miles of the
Congo river. The influence of the
witch-doctor over the natives was
ery strong, but Dr. Dye was able to
overeome this with the aid of medi-braska Wesleyan in 1917 and irarae
cal science, and after four years thejdiately entered the World War. He
first converts were baptized.
Mrs. Dy's health broke down in
1907 and Dr. Dye returned for one
term of service on the foreign field
alone. Attacked by sleeping sick
ness he too was compelled to return
from the field.
Attacked Sleeping Sickness Problem.
Dr. Dye was one of the pioneers
in attacking the problem of sleeping
sickness among the natives in Cen
tral Africa. He and Mrs. Dye also
had much to do with the first work
of reducing the language to written
form from the native spoken dia
lect. In the Dyes' second term on
the field the Christian Endeavor So
ciety was established and Mrs. Dye
made the first grammar and first
translation of some of the Gospels.
Following the second term on the
field, Dr. Dye was instrumental in
raising $25,000 for building the mis
sion steamer "Oregon" in order that
the negroes in the back country up
the tributaries of the Congo might
be reached by missionaries. He es
tablished a church at Bolengo which
now has a membership of 2,000. He
also introduced the tithing system
among the new converts.
The station at Bolenge was taken
over from the Northern Baptists for
a small sum in the beginning and, as
the back country had not been ex
plored, no one knew the extent of the
territory occupied by the speaking
tribe. Dr. Dye made some of the
first itineries and opened up the back
country in many villages. A recent
survey has proved that this territory
is at least 40 miles in extent from
the river and forms a triangle with
about a million inhabitants.
Dr. Dye's description of the devel
opment of the work in Bolenge and
the stations in the back country
which sprang from it is one of the
most interesting in missionary his
tory. Buck Tells of India
