Kiss Should Be A Privilege, Not Habit Young People Are Told Cleveland, Ohio, July 9 —Should a girl powder her nose in church? Should a wife love, honor and obey her husband or just love and honor him? How long should a boy go with a girl before he asks for permission to kiss her? “J am glad to know that there is at least one young man who is soberly thinking of asking for permission,” Dan A. Poling, international president of the Christian Endeavor, said, "Young people are happiest when the kiss is regarded as a privilege rather than a habit. A young man should withhold his kisses long enough to find that the girl is the choice of his life. Poling was a target for all manner of questions affecting young people’s conduct during the “question hout” which he conducted each day during the Christian Endeavor convention in Public Hall, here, this week. Tile session proved to be one of the most popular of the whole convention and drew thousands of young people loaded with quiries. “It a girl doubts the propriety of powdering her nose in church she should't do it”, Poling said. Asked if a wife should “obey” her husband, poling answered: "A man should expect no more from his wife than he is prepared to give to his wife.” Other typical questions and answers follow: | Q : How does the Christian Endeavor regard dancing? i A: The Christian Endeavor is not a governmental organization. Such questions must be solved by the church of one’s membership. The movement does not sponsor dancing because it is a democratic organization. Dancing is undemocratic because wherever there is dancing there are wallflowers. We want everyone to enjoy everything together in common in Christian Eu-

| deavor activities. However, some of | the finest Christ Inns I ever have known enjoyed dancing. | Q: What ran ministers do to draw largbr crowds tn religious services? A: The minister's problem is not ' one of filling pews but of filling people When the people are getting the right thing front the pulpit the crowds will ' come. I Q: Should children be given spending money? A: No. Spending money is the cause of a growing menace among young people. Unearned money is a bad thing. Every home schedule should be adjusted so that spending money is paid on a basis of earning power and disposition. - — ......o_ _ ——- Minnesota Coach Gets An Offer From Butler Minneapolis, Minn., July 9 —(UP) — George I’otsy Clark, asststagt football and head baseball coach at the University of Minnesota, will leave, tonight for Indianapolis to confer with, officials of Butler University.
