Half to the church, half to college


McKean, a North Dakota rancher, got rich even though he didn't have an
education. Despite his success, he stayed unsophisticated and prudish.


On his deathbed, he said to Father Dempsey, "I'm leavin' half my fortune to
the Church and the other half to the state college."


"It's the devil's work!" cried the priest. "That college takes decent boys and
girls and makes them matriculate together. They even have the same curriculum!"


McKean cancelled the bequest to the college.
