TYPES OF MORALITY IS SUBJECT OF ADDRESS “Morality in its practice seems to me,” said Dr. William Parsons of the Central Presbyterian Church at the Y. M. C. A. meeting last Thursday, “to be of three kinds: First, the con ventional, after the manner of the popular ragtime, “Everybody’s Doin’ It”; then, the strict literal morality, doing what is especially mentioned in the Bible, but led by caprice in what the Bible does not unmistakably com mand; and third, the generous moral ity which does ungrudgingly what ever Bible or conscience tells one is right.” Dr. Parsons spoke of the nobility of sincere and consistent Christianity built upon this third type of morality. At the usual meeting next Thurs day in Dr. Schmidt’s room, at 7:15 P. M., Dr. A. M. Spangler, of the Congregational Church will speak. SPENCER SPEAKS ON BEHALF OF BILL Carleton Spencer, President of the Student Body, will speak to the citi zens of Cottage Grove, Monday noon and evening concerning the Millage Bill, and the present status of the University appropriation situation. It was at the request of the voters of the town that this explanation will be made, the University authorities having designated Spencer as the most available speaker. At noon, the business men of the city will be addressed informerly, while in the evening Mr. Spencer will speak at a mass meeting. The point that the Millage Tax will not be as costly as the present appropriation method of support will be emphasized by the president of the Student Body. A quantity of literature will also be distributed to voters of the city. CO-EDS SURPASS MEN IN OUTSIDE READING One-third of the students of the University have signed registration cards at the Library dask, for the privilege of taking books for outside reading. The women are evidently more assiduous readers than the men, as 105 co-eds as compared with 92 men are the figures. The figures show that the Seniors lead in percentage of book readers, for nearly one-half of the class have registered. Freshmen show an aver sion to the Library, if a bare one fourth of the students of that class who have registered, may be taken as a criterion. Forty-seven of the 127 Juniors have registered, but a smaller per cent of the Sophomores, 43 of the 139, have asked for the privilege. In each class the women outnumber the men.
