saccaLAuREA1E ADDRESS
DR.. Nicholson Delivered a Strong
Address Sunday Morning at
the City Hall.

The senior class of Dakota Wesleyan
University, of which there are a
dozen men bers, we're the honored
young ladies and gentlemen Sunday
morning in the city hall auditorium,
when President Nicholson delivered
the annual baccalaureate address.
Notwithstanding the weather was
of unpleasant nature, a heavy mist
falling at the hour OF the service,
the vast hall was nearly nlled with
people. On the stage were the pre-
siding elders of the Methodist Con-
ference and the chorus choir of 60
voices.
The devotional exercises were con-
Quoted by DR.. Nicholson and after
the singing OF a hymn. Presiding
Elder jenkins, Of Sioux Falls, lead
in prayer. and the chorus of 60
voices, under the direction of E. w.
Hobsen, rendered a selection from
1.-THE Messiah" The accompaniment
vas played by Miss Fannie McCor-
mick. The scripture lessons we're
read by Rev. Ecker Burton, pastor
OF the Baptist church and Rev. A.
Craig Bowdish, pastor of the Con-
gregational church. After the offer
ing was taken up, the chorus again
sang a selection from 1.-The Messiah"
the Hallelujah chorus.
DIR. Nicholson's baccalaureate
address to the graduating class IA
a magnificent effort, and the ques-
tions that he discussed aroused him
to d degree OF enthusiasm that the
noted president seldom attains. His
text was an appeal to return from
the ways of wickedness unto God,
and In the course of his address he
took up the social questions for an
earnest discussion. These he found to
be serious questions, not alone in New
York aud Chicago. but right here in
Mitchell as we'll, and he called upon
the righteous people to set their seal
Of disappr0val against the gigantic
foes which seek to dethrcne the good
and supplant 1t with evil. He de-
clared IN emphatic tones that the
government Of cities is a disgrace to
civilization, and in support of bis
declaration referred to the crime
that Is rampant, of the gambling
and lewduess that seem to be abund-
ant.
He touched on the reformation
that had been accomplished to a
certain extent in the higher walk of
life, where senators have been con-
victed and sent to prison where
high officials in other walks have
been brought to account for their
misdeeds. a weakness was shown by
the people, when he stated that
President Roosevelt could be elected
to a third term with ease on tue
fight he is making today, but that
the president could not be given a
third term were he TO rebuke the
saloon interests and come out against
those evils. 1t was where the people
OF the country could not take a stand
for rig hteousness which meant more
than all else.
In closing he said to the graduates
that individual excellence was the
w%atchword that he offered to them
in their future lives. The DR.. ca
pressed his admiration and great love
for the class members and trusted
that the spirit of God might prevail
In their hearts, and thus not cause
them to say in the years hereafter,
s'Come let US return unto the Lord.n

The Henpeckin~ WIG.

The henpecking wife's greatest crime
Is her ignorance of the meaning Of the
marriage VOW. She actually believes
that she has right to dictate to her
husband, to fret at him, to nag him, to
order his way of living just because
she is married to him. Why must q
mans personal liberty be at an end
because he has taken unto himself a
wife? Every man and woman Is a per-
son and is entitled to certain liberties,
certain freedom of action, certain re
spect from other persons, but the hen
pecking wife doesn't recognize any OF
these laws.
Woman admires manliness, yet the
woman who restricts her husbands
personal liberty makes a dummy OF
him. He has arms and legs, tongue
and teeth, even brain, but these he
must not use as he chooses. He must
hate as she hates, love whom she loves
eat as she eats, think as she thinks,
believe fas she believes, even to the
worshiping Of her God. She scolds
thinks she has a right to. Worse, she
jaws. If he spills his coffee she jaws.
If he tracks in mud-she jaws. If he
forgets to mail letter-she jaws.
The henpecking wife feels too much
responsibility. If her husband talks
too much, speaks too loudly, laughs
too heartily, she takes his sin upon her
own shoulders and is 80 mortified. u
Why? She doesn't care how loudly the
grocer laughs. Her husband isn't q
piece Of her that she must be RESPONSE
BILE for his vocal defects.
A man Is a person, married or sin
gle. The marriage VOW contains nc
clause which gives woman the right
to rob her husband of it's free will; nor
does it say that she can lose her tenn
per and scold him with impunity. No
matter how much he loves her, he is in
no way part of her. He is a being
an individual, with just as much right
to his personal belief, aims, ambitions
hopes, fears, habits, as he had before
he married her.
When women learn these truths they
will have too much respect for the In.
dividuality, the strength, the personali-
ty of their husbands to allow them
selves to develop into henpecking
wives-Cynthia Grey.

DOn'ts for Husbands.


Don't hang about the kitchen giving
advice about this and that, unless you
allow your wife the same privilege at
your place of business.
Don't show all your kindness and
courtesy away from home and let only
the ugly side of your disposition mani
fest itself at home.
Don't listen to the man who begins
to criticise his wife in public; advise
him to settle those things in the pri-
vacy of his own home.
Don't forget that your own family
has as much right to pleasant greet
ing when met as the business or social
acquaintance next door.
Don't be lavish in your expenditure
for a downtown lunch and cigars while
you think out plans for greater econo-
my in the family grocery bill.
Don't allow any quarrels to crop out
before children or servants, leaving all
such things reserved for private dis
cussion, with mutual confidence and
kindness.
Don't demand an itemized report of
every cent you give her, and If she
makes an unwise expenditure think
how many times you have given her
the same example

Girls and "old Maids. )"

Never sneer, girls, at an unhappy
"old maid" Once she was very likely
just as sweet and young and sunny
hearted as yourselves. But she missed
the road which may, perhaps, lead you
to sweetheart and prospect Of mar
ried happiness. OF course, she was
wrong to turn sour.
To brood over things that cannot be
helped is weak-spirited. There are
many roses to be gathered in the gar
den Of life over and beyond the ro-
nance belonging to men and maids.
Success and happiness can be won by
any girl Of to-day, even IL nobody
comes to WOO. But neither is likely to
come to the girl who, when love fails
her, sits down to weep and wall over a
might-have-been marriage.

clare that the most inveterate smoker

day, when the venerable dame, then
about 80 years old, was on visit to
his house, she sat smoking her pipe by
the chimney corner, when George w.

anti-tobacco tracts, called to see her.
