Warden Avery when he made a closed
season on the trapping of muskrats.
The claim was made that the muskrat
family in the state of Minnesota was
in danger of determination on account
of the present scarcity. We have talk
ed with dozen trappers and fur buy
ers and every one gives the same re-
ply, that there are more muskrats
now than last season. 1t looks very
much as if the big fur buyers of the
country had directed sufficient pres
sure upon the above parties to put
through an order that will curtail the
fur supply, thus enabling the fur deal
ers to dispose of their present over
supply of furs which were bought
at peak prices. To lend support to
this view is the fact that not only has
this state ordered closed season, but
the Scarcity of the animals seem al
so apparent in Wisconsin and one 9TH
er state, the three big muskrat pro-
Quoting states of the country, and the
governors of these other two states
have also ordered no muskrat trapping
this winter, 'due to the danger of ex-
termination" Strange how this Eek
termination" idea happens to be at
the same time when the fur dealers
are anxious for a curtailment of the
supply so as to avoid a loss of thou
sands of dollars on their unsold goods
bought at prices several times higher
than present prices. Let the big fur
buyers get stung; they have got it
coming to them.-Lake Crystal Union.

in an editorial in the Minneapolis Tri-
bune, under the heading "The Death
less Panacea". The Globe reproduces
it here. o..
1.-TWO thousand men of affairs who
gathered in convention in Chicago last
week are persuaded that there is need
for prayer to procure righteousness
in the conduct of business and justice
in the relations of man to man. To
discuss this subject and to advise ways
of putting their ideas to practical test
was the occasion of their assembly.
"At this remarkable meeting there
were iterations and reiterations of the
statement made so many times by
American business men since the end
of the World war that there is one
way and one only to abate industrial
and social evils and that way is to
adhere to the teachings of Jesus
Christ in all relations of life.
"The Golden Rule and obedience to
the Divine command to Love One An
other would seem to be all that is
needed to follow in order that human
justice may be done, In adherence to
those precepts there could be no sell

er. This spirit implies right relation
with the Ruler of the Universe and
that right relation implies in turn the
impulse and willingness to do the
thing that is righteous in the test of
divinity guided conscience.
mo one class more than or less
than another in the practical activi-
ties of life stands in need of the up
lifting and mellowing influence of
prayer. There is no class monopoly of
virtue or vice, of right or wrong, of
justice or injustice, of fair play or
foul. The man who does not give
fair days pay for fair days work is
not postured in the proper mood for
prayer. The man who does not give
fair days work for fair days pay is
similarly lacking in the spirit which
prayer implies. A purely selfish
strike and a purely selfish lookout
are alike condemned by the standards
of conduct that Jesus Christ pre-
scribed for men.
Prayer is, in one sense, the giving
of a spiritual promissory note pay

Of, the prayer might better never have
been uttered. 1t signalizes hypocrisy,
and hypocrisy is one of the worst of
human traits. The prayer spirit, how
ever, can be cultivated. If it be nur-
tured with honest purpose it thrives
and grows in spite of the hindering
force Of mortal weaknesses.
Glow far these 1000 men gathered
in Chicago will be able to spread
their practical lay evangelism and
to what purpose, remains to be seen,
but in taking the teachings of the
Nazarene as their guide and inspira-
ton they have made a choice that is
above and beyond reproach. Those
teachings are as virile and unassail-
able today as they were 1900 years

The NaZarene Rules.

Talk as you will about Chance;
accept Atheism if you wish; the fact
remains that the lowly Nazarene rules
the world. That great apostle of non
belief, the brilliant and versatile Vol
taire, on his death bed acknowledged
that there was nothing in Atheism.
The church spire is the best advertise
ment of town and few care to en-
bark in business in community where
it is wanting. The constitution Of the
United States acknowledges God. The
great men of the earth bow to the
sway of Christianity. Without be-
lief in God this would be a weary
world; an unsafe place in which to
live. Witness Russia, where unbelief
has reached it's full fruition. One of
the finest tributes to the power of the
Christian religion appeared recently

Committee Is Named
A committee was appointed by the
board of trustees to try to bring about
complete cooperation between the
faculty and the administration. This
committee is regarded as an "inVesti-
eating committee" tho it is not of
the nature requested by the faculty
and alumni. The faculty has asked,
in a resolution adopted at a meeting
Wednesday and presented to the trus-
tees, that the Investigating commit
tee" be appointed by conference of
faculty, alumni and trustees. The
alumni, after heated debate in a meet
ing on Wednesday. had appointed two
members of the alumni association to

the committee composed of trustees
only, Robert Stone, member of the
board said:
so long as the board is responsible
for the affairs of the college, it does
not wish to pass the burden of its re-
sponsibilities to some one else"
Tuition Is Increased.
The tuition of the college was in
creased by the board from SIS to 800.
and the law school tuition to $11O.
The resulting increase in the revenue
of the college will not be sufficient to
meet the deficit that will be caused by
the increases granted faculty MEM
bers, which swell the budget for next
year nearly $4,000. The deficit for
the school year just ended was $780,
900.
Important changes in the constitu-
ton of the college were demanded by
the alumni in their annual meeting on
Wednesday. Election of a majority of
the trustees by the alumni was asked;
also that the board of trustees be d.
vided into two groups, one to nave
financial functions and the other to
have administrative power. The re-
quests were made in a resolution, UNI
derstood to represent a part of the re-
port of the committee working on
new constitution.

Ex-Salvation Army Captain Gave Bat

Laurence, Kan, June 3.-Walter
Story a former Salvation Army cap
tain, now owner of a secondhand
store here, delivered a 500 right arm
swing to the nose of a wouldbe rob-
Der here yesterday after the intruder
had delivered a blow to the forehead
with some hard object.
The wouId-be robber entered the
store and asked to have a teR-dollar
bill changed. Story turned around to
get the change and as he turned his
head again was struck a stunning
blow on the forehead.
The blow was not knockout, how
ever, and when the intruder attempt
ed to get more than 500 from the
desk, Story landed a terrific right
swing to the mans nose. The unex-
pected interruption of his plans caused
the intruder to make a hasty retreat
out of the door.
