Modern Education Not for Drifters Registrar States
Activities Valuable, Foster Says, But College Training Is Most Important
SECOND KFKU TALK
Becoming an educated citizen of twentieth century America is not a drifting match—it is an uphill climb Registrar O. G. Foster told high school students this address here this morning, speaking over the University station, KFKU.
"You need not neglect and should not undervulcan athletics, social and psychological training and ship-ships—these are highly valuable but they can be developed all through your life. The four years in college allow you to develop your training. To dedicate these four years to other life-aims, however worthy in themselves, is a sacrificial error of judgment."
The registrar pointed out that while one person in 3,000 of the population in Saskatchewan is about one in 18 among holders of A.B. or B.S. degrees and honored him. Hoover taught at a college of culture influence, and social standing, a four-year college training is worth $27,000.
Education Increases Power
"It is not clear, even to the most thoughtless young American, that college education will quidnap the elderly," he said of the low cloak upward" said Mr. Foster.
After suggesting that candidates for college should satisfy themselves of their earnest desire for a college education and that they have made adequate progress in their studies, the question of "Where go to college?" "Don't matriculate at a college where 'getting aid on examinations is expected,' avoid institutions where college admissions of minority are regarded by campus opinion as manly privileges; avoid institutions where the freshmen are extricated, and vice versa, the plea of 'tradition,'" said Mr. Foster.
Avoid Kind Institutions
Sour Owl on Sale Friday
Rudolph Wendelin Designs Cover of 'Junior Prom Number'
"Dedge also those institutions legally authorized to confer degrees which are so 'kind' in admitting unprepared students and so generous in letting them pass" that their degrees qualify for universities or authorities outside their own state."
The registrar suggested that selection of a college to attend be made early in the school year, for the student and his parents, that they might be satisfied as to its tradition.
Friday, the thirteenth, is the day selected for the appearance of the 'Junior Prom Number' of the Sour Owl on the Hill.

Russians Believe Business Man Is Cause of All Evil
Hindus Cites Construction of Large Factories by American Engineers
"The Russian revolution has declared itself against Western civilization and all that it implies, namely, private property. The individualistic family," stated Maurice Hands in a lecture on "The World That Rules" at the University Auditorium last night.
PEASANT IS MYSTERY
"Business and business men are fast being destroyed in Russia and everything is under government control," he said. "The Russian nation has become a vast corporation. The Russians believe that business in the cause of all major evil and it is a great disgrace for one's father to be involved in the ruin of such people for him to be a bandit in this country.
"The Russians are trying an experiment in civilization that has never been tried before. Never in the history of the world has there been anything like it and while it seems wild and impure it can tell what will become of it."
He brought to mind a fact that the United States, the most capitalistic nation in the world, and he cited as the reason for its construction of huge factories, and in the establishment of electrical projects.
United States Aiding
"Catch up with production and distribution of other nations, and then surpass them," is the slogan of the organization that says that unless you can surpass these other nations they will collapse. This raises the question, "Can economic life be developed on more equitable and less restrictive system or by the 'individual system'?"
There is a general food shortage in Russia, Mr. Hindus淀印, but foodstuff can be purchased for extremely low prices in government-owned stores. They cost about 100,000 persons of their citizenship and this also deprives them of their right to purchase anything except bread in the government stores. Consequently, they are forced to trade in the plausible form of exhilarationally high, or go without.
Religion Denounced
"They denounce religion just as violently as business," he said. "They are overpowered by government, but neither are they urged to go. The new movement in Russia is an aesthetic cruade mash-up of both sides." He added that religion on a national scale" he went on.
4. Jhindu said that they were bringing schools there; there were no schools in which religion could be taught to pupils under 18. Within ten years, 90 per cent of the school population was Hindu.
"If Russia ever comes out of the meloe it is in now it will be because of its peasant people. In the past few years the Russian peasant discovered a way to be politically minded and they are becoming organized," he stated.
"There are certain conditions in Russia that sustain the family, and these conditions include that they are a sexually normal race, and the strength and freedom of their families. It is not much attention, and the Russian women were among the earliest to be embalmed."
He explained that in regard to the matter of the family, writers about whom I am writing want to do away with the family, but that was not true. They merely demand that it be made clear that it must hold together by its own power, and be left to its own
He closed with the statement, "The poessist is the great mystery of Russia. The poessist is the greatest stage in the Russian Revolution and he opened upon the poessist is heard from"
Until 1928 when Russian peasants finally adopted collective farming, agriculture in Russia was aliphated. After the collapse of the Soviet Union, American farmer might just as well be to reconcile himself to the fast that if Russia continues to produce crops under communal ownership, there must be a matter of two or three years when there will be very little place for American wheat in European markets, for example. In 1943 we compete with this government control.
In connection with the family and religion he discussed the marriage and religion, he said it is comparatively easy to obtain, easier to voice. "It costs more money and takes more time to get a malted milk in a refrigerator than it takes for divorce in Russia." Mr. Hinda added.
Agriculture Was Crude
