political pull, take no interest in the
school work or in the moral and reli-
gious welfare. of the students Moth
ing could be farther from the truth.
The majority of the instructors are
active church workers. They make
use of every opportunity for encour-
aging the students to do their very
best In their class work and for induc-
ing them to ally themselves with the
churches of Lawrence. The religious
organizations of the students, that is
