Y.W. VESPERS FEATURE TALK BY MISS SCUDOER Speaker Describes Estes Activities at Ag Service. Values of the Estes Conference, two week recreational camp spon sored by Y. M. C. A., were pro pounded by Frances Scudder, Ves per chairman, when she addressed the Vespers at 12:20 yesterday in the ag college home economics parlor. "The Estes conference should be attended by every student in school," declared Miss Scudder. "Of the five hundred at Estes last sea son, only forty were from the Uni versity of Nebraska. I sincerely hope that this number will be sub stantially increased when the con ference opens this year." Devotionals at yesterday's meet ing were led by DeLoris Bors. GLIMPSES Of the World About Though King Edward seems to be in the dog house in the eyes of his parliament, theoretically he has powers comparable to those of a Hitler or a Mussolini. He can disband the parliament and the cabinet, and call upon the army sworn to serve him, not the state to execute by force any of his commands. He can declare war and make peace. He can make peers and peeresses out of every citizen of his empire. He can sell the Britsh navy, put the money in his pocket, and be held answerable to no one. He cannot be sued for libel. He doesn't even have to pay taxes: Edward, theoretically at least, can do all these things, and Bald win, merely a prime minister, would keep him from marrying the girl! Prime Minister Baldwin and a large bloc of his ministers, who apparently have not heard that "the king can do no wrong," are struggling against a stream of popular sentiment which now threatens to overwhelm the forces that would prevent King Edward from marrying his heart's desire. English subjects approve their king's action and are beginning to demonstrate their sentiment vociferously. Their reaction to "abdication" r u m or s has strengthened over the weekend. In their king they recognize a great leader, and are not dis posed to lose him over so trifling a matter as his choice of a wife. c LASSIFIED ADVERTISING 10c pER UNE TUXEIO- Size 40.
