Discourse.

Morning Lectures-Berkeley
News Items.

Il ONSs
Payne, pastor of the Unitarian Society ol
woman suffrage and is giving course oi
three Sunday-mo orning lectures on the
subject.
The first of the three was given this
morning. His general topic was, ''Rela-
ton of Woman to the Life and Work oi
| the World"
The remarks OF DR.. Payne this morning
were confined to woman in her domestic
sphere. Next Sunday he will speak on
woman in her relation to the larger life
and work of the world. and on the Sunday
| following he will consider the more special
subject of her part in public affairs.
DR.. Pavne's announcement that he
would speak on the subject this morning
brought out an unusually large audience.
He said:
The prime word for woman, as also for man,
is the Scripture saying, "The word is nigh
thee" Listening woman has always heard
the words household and home. She always
will hear them and obey them. am glad 10
say this, because there are SO many who think
that after November there will be complete
overturn of domestic order in the households
of California. And this is what Miss Anthony
and her coadjutors are working for. There

For they have heard them for their own
hearts.
But why have women undertaken the house
hold care and toll? Because they heard that
other word home, which means far more.
This, rather than the mere delight in the work
of the housewife, makes them faithful to the
common task.
But they realize that the perfect home can
not be secured by an outer and slavish devo-
ton to the details OF household toll. This for
many women is the reason why they seek for
an expansion of their lives and work, that
they may better serve the home.
Want Them Expelled.
BERKELEY, CAL, Oct. IL. - There
promises to be- lively time tomorrow
afternoon at The meeting OF the asso-
ciated students which President Elston
will call, when the matter of expelling
from their body the Democrats who sent
resolutions condemning the recent action
of the Yale students toward Bryan comes
up for discussion. The Republicans at
the university are angry with the Bryan
men for sending out such resolutions as
coming from part of the student body,
and their dragging the University into
politics. The same old question of whether
man can be university student and a
citizen at the same time will be brought up.
Thus far during the present campaign
the students have taken quite prominent
part in politics, especially the representa-
tives of the Students Republican Club.
President Oliver of this club was, last
week, accused of speaking in public as a
representative of the university, and not
as mere private citizen, but this accusa-
tion proves to have been groundless. Now,
the Democrats have, in a set of resolutions,
expressed their attitude toward the Yale
students, and forwarded them to Bryan
and to President Dwight of Yale. In them,
the name of the university is used, and 1t
is this point which the students will dis
cuss tomorrow.
Expulsion from the associated students
seems hardly probable, but the students
expect to settle once for all the propriety
and policy of connecting the university
with their political movements.
