« -Congregational Pastor Gives Views on Marriage and Divorce By BILL HOWLETT “According to the latest statistics, three out of every five marriages today end in divorce," Rev. Wesley Nicholson, pastoi of the Congregational church, stated I'uesdav night in the fourth lecture of this term s Youth and Marriage series. J his trend is the result of the effects of the industrial rev olution and the break up of the patriarchal system. Rev. W. G. Nicholson explained. Speaking on "A Protestant View of Marriage,” Rev. Nich olson declared that it does no good for a church to make pro nuuuceuieuus against, to cnastise, or to refuse to recognize divorce. Family Rules States Five rules were given by Rev W. G. Nicholson as necessary if the family is to be stabilized: ' Y 1. “We must frankly dignify sex-life. We must admit that CASHMERES T h e co-eds favorite.

We must accept the neces sity of divorce when the couple arc not compatible. Under the present system one must lie about the other in order to have grounds for divorce. 3. W'e must make the home a democracy of both adults and children, based on the equality, independence, and worth of each member of the family. 4...We must dedicate family life to a community of interests, interests which all members of the family have in common. . 5. We must preserve the fam ily by dedicating our strength to the kingdom of God. The family must exist for something bigger than itself. The greater the em phasis on religion, the stronger the family ties,” Rev. W. G. Nicholson stated. Female Equality a Must Rev. Dr. Nicholson concluded bj saying that there is a great plac< for women in society. Until womer are recognized as equal with men it will be difficult to keep the fam ily stabilized.

The club, organized in mid-Feb ruary and now carrying 26 mem bers, plans to petition Tau Kappa Epsilon, national social fraternity, for permission to establish a chap ter at Oregon, according to Ed Georgeff, acting chairman of the group. Word received from the national office of the fraternity indicates that the University of Oregon chap ter may be affiliated before the end of spring term, Georgeff said. Dr. Wright Adviser Dr. Gordon Wright, associate professor of history, has been desig* nated by the national president o; Tau Kappa Epsilon as faculty ad viser for the group, and J. Hugh Stevens, senior in history, has been named adviser. Both men became Tekes while attending Whitman college in Walla Walla, Wash. A Tau Kappa Epsilon field sec retary, now in California, is sched uled to visit the Oregon campus soon to inspect the group prior to its formal petitioning. The national fraternity has 47 active undergraduate chapters, two colonies, and 17 graduate chapetrs throughout the United States. In the West, undergraduate chapters are located at the University of Washington, Washington State col lege, Whitman college, University of Idaho, and New Mexico State college. There are also six graduate chapters on the west coast: in Port land, San Francisco, Los Angeles, Seattle, Pullman, and Moscow. Tau Kappa Epsilon was founded in 1899 at Illinois Wesleyan univer sity.
