Rev. Willard Scott
Describes Preacher
of the Present Day

The Protestant minister OF today Is
an anomaly in our social life. We have
not yet placed him. he deserves our
sympathy; he Is afraid OF his position:
he tries 10 talk OF current affairs in the
language OF Judea; he parts his convic-
lions in the middle 80 as TO placate this
faction or that faction" asserted Rev.
Wizard Scott. former Omaha minister,
at the University club at noon.
The speaker made this reference TO the
minister OF his boyhood days. This man
of God was invisible during the week
and incomprehensibie on Sunday. He
stood behind a majestic pulpit which re-
vealed only the bust of the preacher.
who wore a collar and dicky for decency's
sake. He received 800 a year; he bore
no relationship TO the social life Of the
community.
Changes have taken place IN the Pro
teatant pulpit, but the minister has not
yet been allowed the privilege OF having
his own head. The reduced size of the
present-day pulpit requires creased
trousers and blackened shoes."
Rev. Mr.. Scott made a plea that the
minister be allowed to organize his Job
as the business man Is wont TO do. He
told OF his own experience OF freeing him
self OF the letters OF which he spoke and
POT being able to so out a. a free lance. He
said he has experienced self-revelation.
Il now have mental and moral au-
tonomy," he said in conclusion.

many did GO west. young man, it was
logical advice and was quite popular, so
popular in fact that the old quotation re-
mains with us still, though there is little
need of it now. Young men have been GO
ing west for so many years and in such
great numbers that the west is really over
crowded. There are opportunities, of course,
but there are more men than opportunities,
today. The truth of this can easily be YER
flied by talk with anyone who has visited
the far west.
Gr At the present time the greatest
II opportunities are to be found right
here in the great central section of our
country-right here in Omaha Needn't
Ego West, or North, or South, or East,

the men. This resulted in finding
about dozen who had no tickets on
their persons, but claimed the paste
boards were in their baggage.
Following the separation Of the

fide laborers and their wives and fami-
lies were bundled into waiting trans
fer wagons and auto trucks and taken
to the immigration detention station.
A part of them will be taken out to
the plantations in two days, and an
other batch" next week. At noon.
the sorting process was still going on,
in a conscientious effort to identify
the stowaway.
