TSTED PEOPLES
COLLEGE IS OPEN
AT DANNEBROC

have asked the editor of this
paper for permission to write a
few words in regard to the open
ing Of Nysted Peoples College at
DannebrOg, Nebraska.
Our winter course will begin
December 1 and close March 1, and
will be open to both sexes. The
cost for the three months has a.
balm been reduced-this time to
SlOO. This sum covers tuition,
loom, board, light, etc., which
means that from the purely finan-
dal side, it is cheaper to spend
swinter here than to pay for room
and board in a modern city.
In answering the query as to
the type Of work engaged in at
this Institution, l shall here men
ton only one of its aspects. It is
well known fact that we are liv-
ing In an age in which the econ
homie, political and religious prob
lens are so stupendous that the
majority Of our youth feels utter
lost In the maze of the swift
loving currents. One of the tasks
We have set for ourselves, there
lore, IN addition to the major one
q character training, is to put you
n ouch with some of the moving
pfGes OF the present day so as 10
s1aole you to follow with interest
Nand1l's movement, the Russian
experiment., the alleged struggle
%Iween science and religion, etc
II Is our firm belief and hope that
Ss can be accomplished through
ue lectures, discussions, reading
IsE'er, and personal contacts we
nave provided for, and that the in
NreSt you thus acquire in tbs
plOOiems Of life will remain will
wv IN the years to come, thus no
saly enrlching your own lives, bu
y ae same time helping to Greats
