DIES MONIES, Ia, May 14.-High-
err education by injunction was re-
suned peaceably on the campus of
Des MONIES CBaptis0 university to-
day as fresh breezes from the corn
belt carried away the last faint of
bag eggs which students had hurled
at their administration building in
weekend rioting.
Only an occasional dark splotch
on the brick walls Of the building
and here and there a broken window
remained to remind students of the
outbreaks as they picked up the
threads of latin and theology where
they had dropped them last week
to take up brickbats and spoiled
vegetables.
Miss Edith Rebnan, secretary to-
the board of trustees, and one of the
persons against whom the students
revolted. left Monday night for
Buffalo. her send-off being a chorus
of jeers and American patriotic
songs.
Send Representative
The students had gathered to give
a send-off to the Rev. Minor
Stevens, pastor of the Calvary
Baptist church, and Dean E. G. Cali
loWay, of the college of pharmacy.
who also are bound for Buffalo to
present before the convention Of
the Baptist Bible Union of North
America the students side of the
controversy.
When the students learned that
Miss Rebman was on the train, they
surged around her sleeping car and
''Serenaded" her with cat-calls and
jeers.
Later four Canadian students who
were accused of spying on their
fellows, at the instigation of DR.. T.
T. Shields, president of the board of
trustees, and Miss Rebman, left on
another train for Toronto, &C.
companied by Max Schimpf, q
trustee.
The four were accompanied to the
train by a police guard, but no
demonstration marked their de-
parture. To the contrary, a half
dozen students asked them if they
would not remain, assuring the four
that they would not be harmed.
Court Stops Lockout
On records of the district court is
an order restraining the board of
trustees from keeping the school
closed in accordance with the wishes
of DR.. Shields, who fled under po-
lice guard after his dismissal of the
entire faculty had brought on the
student rioting.
No hearing to make the injunction
permanent is probable before the
end of this semester next month.
DR.. Shields had fired" the fac
ulty because he felt its members
were not in sympathy with the strict
fundamentals views Of the Bap-
fist Bible Union which controls the
university. Included in the dismis-
sal order was DR.. Harry c. Wayman,
president of the school, who has
been in similar difficulties before,
notably when he was president Of
William jewell college at Liberty,
Mo.

THE NEW YEAR


Every year during the advent Of the
new year, some of the human race
demonstrate their weakness by max
ing certain vows whereby they intend
to right their mode of living, habits
and customs and then before many
days have elapsed of the new born
year, they fall for the same old lure,
that of temptation again and are
worse off than if they had not made
any resolutions.
1t is always a good and noble thing
to try to better ones way of living
and to make this old world better
place Fin which to live, but each one
should use discretion in what he at
tempts and even though he tries and
loses-just so he issues a noble try,
his efforts are not in vain.
Although it is the custom, neverthe-
less New Years resolutions should not
come to mind only on New Years day
or Whereabouts, but they should occupy
part of every persons daily life.
Start this year and make resolution
to the effect that every day will be
spent in the betterment of your own
environment and habits and the effort
will be rewarded throughout the year.

There is every reason at present,
however, to believe that the present
prosperity will continue; that Con-
gress will do its best in it's final
session; that healthy business con-
ditions will not develope any ills; and
that the market will not toboggan. In
short the coming year promises not
only to be an interesting year, but
also a year of prosperity and bust
ness activity, both for the farmer
and the business man.

MODERN INVENTIONS AND
WAGE GARNER

The trend of modern times toward
replacing human labor and wage
earners in the field. while advancing
the progress of the age to an almost
miraculous degree, does not fit i'm so
good with the wage earners. who suf-
fer greatly from the first reactions
wherever automatiSm has been APP
piled.
Take for instance in the theatre,
with the coming of the movietOne
and the vitaphone, it has eliminated
and is eliminating organiSts, plan
lists and orchestras. The pictures, in
other words. play their own accom-
paniment simultaneously with their
actions on the screen. In cases where
the writer has heard the new pro-
duction, it has not nearly come up
to the standard of the real music
which heretofore accompanied the
pictures. and which is good half of
the show. 1t has the hollow, grating
and lifeless sound that is such a
marked characteristic of canned
music. No doubt as time goes on it
will be improved and is taking sew
eral places right now, by storm. but
it is more of curiosity than mus
ical treat.
But on the other hand it is throw
ing thousands of wage earners out of
their jobs throughout the country.
Wage earners, who have spent years
and sums of money in attaining the
position where they could hold and
not only hold but draw the attention
and the presence of the public to
the bright lights of the show house
In some places, this situation is most
acute and one might say, Let them
get other jobs" but it is not so easy
when one has spent ones entire life
following the profession, only to be
turned from it by wholesale adoption
of canned music. These profession
ais, who but a few short weeks before
were making living for themselves
and families are now faced with the
possibility of starting in new liv-
lihood and although the new music
and accompaniment may not reach. up
to the standard of the music rendered
by the artists, the theater operators
have to keep up with the times.

IN CITY OR COUNTRY. FOLKS ARE
MUCH ALIKE.

II is well to be happy and pleas
ed with our environments. that
is as it should be- But TO think
that we are the only pebbles on
the beach, or to get cOnccited
is out of place. OftentimeS we
read remarks about how blessed
it is to dwell in the country, and
that would be all right if it did
not go farther, but the comment
goes on about no neighbOrlinesS
and that it is cold and all money
and business in the big centers
of population. The Duluth Her.
aid recently gave an excellent re-
ply to "a country cousin who per-
haps never live in the cities and
knows little about city, life. 1t
is good enough to pass on. Hele
it is:
"As | walk down the slope of leng-
thening shadows. it is borne home to
me with greater frequency that God
was kind to me in permitting me TO
spend my life in small town" wrote
the editor of the Stanley Republican
the other day.
A happy life and. contented
mind is revealed in that home-lovins
sentiment, and it should have stop
ped there.
But when men have acquired the
habit of writing easily the temptation
to whip the devil around the stump,
is hard to resist, so our Wisconsin
neighbor somewhat thOughtlesSly
adds: There as nowhere else one
forms real friendships. People of great
cities form only friendships which
are mutually profitable from bus
mess standpoint"
Strange how many people insist up
on believing that human nature in the
city is different from human nature
in the country. Piling folks together
i'm blocks of hundreds of thousands OIL
millions changes them only super
ficially: their manners may be more
sophisticated, but under the skin the
hearts of the great majority are as
tender and simple and friendly as il
they lived in the woods or on the
prairie.
The biggest city in the world is
madeup of ordinary men and womer
and children, all struggling to live
and most of them succeeding in doing
so rather quietly and decently.
And if there are sOrdid friendships
there, as there are everywhere, there
are also many based upon love an6
self-sacrifice and ideal companion
ships.
Love and devotion and beauty arc
not confined to either city or country
they are an inseparable part of tina
divine harmony that makes all mel
brothers, and in which all share wht
will.
