Although rather long, the program was exceed- ingly Interesting, keeping the atten- tion of the students throughout. Promptly at eight o'clock, the sen- iors, singing the "Coronation March," marched slowly and pompously into their reserved section. While the crowd remained standing, the entire gathering Joined m tue beautiful strains of "America the Beautiful." For the scripture lesson of the morning, Rev. Harry Hager, college pastor, chose the nineteenth Psalm with its beautiful lines revealing God to man. The Girls' Glee club then rendered two fine numbers, "O Irish Hills," by Lester, and "Tiptoe", by Barrle Carew. These two numbers were received with such enthusiasm by the students, that the girls were obliged to render a third selection, a group of southern melodies, sung without accompaniment. After Professor Winter had explain- ed why the President and Governor had not Issued decrees this year con- cerning conservation, George La Mere, cellist, played Gounod's "Ave Maria." The big treat of the morning, how- ever. came in the form of Dr David- son. pastor of Hope Church, who gave a brief address to the gather- ing. In his address, Dr Davidson, showed what effect Influence may have upon those around an Individ- ual. In all life there are beautiful things, beautiful trees and flowers and beautiful characters. Flowers give off fragrance, which as one writer suys, is ilio soul oi tne flower. And with Its soul, what a great Influence the little flower has. In the same way, souls, the world over, give In- fluences to gladden or sadden the hearts round about them. Influences are of two kinds, either that of conscious teaching, or of the unconscious action. Although most of our actions are unconsciously made, we are responsible for them, and Just as "Only God can make a tree," so too, "only God can make our influ- ence good." In closing, Dr Davidson gave his formula for giving off a good Influ- ence.

THAT INQUIRING MIND

Do you like cynics? I do. They jolt you out of the ordinary accepted run of things and force you to exercise your mind. If they can arouse us from our mental leth-argies, whether they convince o rnot, they have done some good. Cold water dashed into the face of a faint

• person, shocks him into consciousness. So does a new, unfavorable, unthought of light on an old subject.

It's a great pity that our reactions are often changed to conform to everybody else's. We salve our con-sciences and drug the inquiring part of our mind by as-suring ourselves that it is alright. The majority is always right. And along comes a person like H. L. Mencken who says the most shockingly pessimistic, growly things in the most jolting manner possible. B-if-r-r—what an old bear! But a bear's growl can shake the dreamiest person out of his lethargy, and negative criticism is often the growl that is needed to wake us up; to make us feel, weigh and find out whether af ter all that is the thing we believe. Better ponder the things we have so lazily accepted, and find out whether we are asleep. There are pleasanter forms of awakening than to have mind jolts, we agree, but some of us need the jolts.

It is strange, isn't it, and rather discouraging, that in a world of so many people there should be so few indi-viduals? And above all, the place where individuals should be developed is the college. Certainly the man who gets one jolt should not settle back into the same rut and wait for another. I am not advising everyone to become cynics. On the contrary. But I am advising the questioning attitude instead of the complacent accept-ance of "what 's right," because other people are doing or saying it.

o

CAN WE PROMOTE WORLD PEACE

The annual senior class play has again been presented with the popular acclaim of the public. The acting of the players had much to do with it's popularity, but it is

v quite obvious that the theme of "The Enemy" was equal-ly telling in drawing crowds.

World peace was the theme to which hearers were attracted. Scene af ter scene, of the great drama, depict-ed the awfulness of war. In revealing these scenes of the World War, the audience was not so much impress-ed by the fact that this struggle cost $188,000,000,000 in direct expense.. Rather, the public was impressed with the individual suffering experienced in warfare. Family circles, were broken; food became scarce; citizens suffer^ ed under the lash of the profiteer; the picked men of the nation were killed or permanently injured. These hard-ships constituted the basis of Channing Pollock's plea for world peace.

Undoubtedly, the writer chose wisely in basing his appeal on those grounds. For, people are not so seriously affected by the material close of war. However, when in-dividual hardships are pictured as dramatically as "The Enemy" portrays them, the average citizen is ready to veto war . Thus, public opinion is created which opposed war.

It is then the creation of this public opinion which is the great common benefit derived from the presentation of such plays as "Th Eenemy." For, af ter all, it is only public opinion, which makes or breaks a war. Without realizing this, perhaps, earlier writers have helped to create a bellicose public sentiment. Today, public lead-ers seek to promote world peace by the publication of favorable literature. And, certainly, it is the duty of the American college to join hands with the leaders in this effort.Hope has shown an active willingness to support the movement by sponsoring "The Enemy". * Every stu-dent has a share in that international aim. The produc-duction of "The Enemy" should only be the beginning oi more effort toward the creation of a forceful public opin-ion through the production of favorable plays, orations and literature at Hope.

Humor

At one of the Rader meetings, two

or three young men arose and star t-

ed to leave Just before the collection

was taken. Mr. Rader shouted to the

usher tha t the doors were to be locked

and no one was to leave unti l after

the collection had been received. The

young men either did not hear him

or chose to ignore him, and they pro-

ceeded on their way. Mr. Rader saw

it was hopeless so he shouted, "let

them out, they're on their way to

hell," and the "sem' s tudents went

complacently on their way.

MERELY PLAYERS

"All the world's a stage, and all the

people in it merely players".

Convention classes, actors and ac-

tresses among the loose and thought-

less of society. But it is noticed that

they are serious in their work. They

may be careless and frivolous in their

life away from their work, bu t they

appear to be dead in earnest. I say

appear for perhaps they do not enjoy

the part they are playing bu t they

successfully do their work, for little

do we detect tha t they are indifferent,

Dr. Prank Crane in "The Actor's Pray-

er," causes the actor to say, "Can not

an actor be God's Man? Can not I,

whose business it is to play, be con-

scientious as those in authority or

peril or solemn function?"

Ours, perhaps, may never be "a pu-

sition of solemnity or of critical re-

sponsibility but we can play the man.

As youth grows older day by day he

realizes more and more the t ru th of

the words of a certain man who said

tha t he who would do some great

thing in this short life must apply

himself to work with such a concen-

tration of his forcea as to idle specta-

tors, who live to amuse themselves,

looks like insanity.

Actors may live in a dream world, and

it may be all right to dream. It is

natural to build castles in the air.

That is where they should be, but our

task is to put the foundations under

them. Back of every Job is the think-

er—the dreamer. Wa want, however,

more than that—we want the dreamer

who carries things through.

We may then, be "merely players,"

insignifcant men and women thruout

life, but we can at the same time play

the part assigned to us and play it

with a wholehearted zeal tha t shall at

least Inspire and thrill those with

whom we have Immediate contact.

The Forum The following paper was sent to

The Anchor with a request for pub-

lication: SPECIALIZATION

Return to Hope's campus brought

consternation and surprise that the

many rulings against science were

seemingly based upon the fear tha t

the science student was becoming

somewhat over-specialized. I t is hard

for us to realize how such claims can

exist or be taken seriously by sup-

posedly educated and cultured in-

structors. Science has fought a winning tight

against the ideals of Matthew Arnold

for the past quarter of a century, and

it is not hard to understand why the

dogmas of education at Hope College

are harder to break down than in the

more progressive schools of the land.

And yet there is no reason why sci-

ence's fight should not be a winning

one. It 's ideals in education are far

higher, and of far greater practical

use, than the time worn idea of

Arnold, tha t the main aim of edu-

cation Is to make men mix easily

with other men. Social aims are not

the Ideals of science. Indeed it often

forces upon the world such arrogant

old fellows as Pasteur whose very

conceit and stubborness give to an unwilling world the modern science

of bacteriology. Science aims to bring

greater happiness wealth, and peace

to the world, not only by searching

t ru th In its own fields bu t by

carrying Its method of thought Into

all branches of learning and living. Only by knowing a thing to be t rue

and good through experience, fact

and experiment can we be sure of

it's fitness to become part of our

philosophy of life.

It Is useless to argue the relative

merits of science and the classics; nor can the latter be a point of a t -

tack In this letter, for we do not even

know the range of subjects a classical

education covers, except, t ha t it does not include science.

What we can do is refute the

charge made, t ha t science students

tend to narrowness. We can do this best by the example and knowledge

most known to us. That is not cor-

ceit, but a protest—an honest pro-test against being styled narrow-

minded. The things we write are

things we know well because we have

conversed them with others, mainly

scientists, though a few classical

students. We do not claim to equal In

any measure the latter in his own

field. Yet, we do claim tha t we

caij meet him upon better footing in

his field than he can us, in ours.

To start with, we challenge any

embryo minister or t)r. Welmers, him-

self, to present the array of subjects

tha t the scientific s tudent offers for

graduation. First, he must and does

have a reading knowledge of German

or French. The pre-medic also knows

a bit of Latin, Mathematics often ex-

tends to the calculus. Few of us get

through without Shakespeare, Milton,

or Browning. Then there is Psycho-

logy, Philosophy, History, even Bible,

all piled on top of the coveted sci-

ences, chemistry, physics and the

biologies. We wonder how many of

the embryo ministers open their

Browning after the mark is register-

ed. And surely, it is more in their

line than ours.

To go on, how many can tell us of

Leonardo de Vince, his geology, phy-

sics, mathematics and anatomy? How

many know of Goethe and his con-

tribution to humanity, thru his Wil?

Ham Tell, read in German class? Sci-

ence reveals more of the man and his

greater mind. How many ever open a

philosophy book for the pleasure of

it—or can tell us of human psycho-

logy as we might tell them, of Thor,

Wodin, Hector and Rolande? Then

there Is Mansfield, Mayes, Nietsche,

Shaw, Betrand Russel and many

more tha t a moment's reflection

would call to mind. I repeat tha t

these are a common knowledge

amongst us. And yet you dub us nar-row minded.

Had you rather not look to the

mote In your own eye? To your eight

years of Greek and Latin and English

without the knowledge of the com-

monest wood flower, the beauties tha t

lurk in the cross sections of tree or

leaf, or the location of the principle

organs of the body?

If we are narrow-mind—pray, and

you? Yet eighty generations since

history began Is not long for any

great change to take place. And yet

can we never learn not to a t tempt

the impossible—to trample down the

student. Knowledge causes passion to

burn hotter than love and no de-

crees, will keep the students down.

COLE PITCHES TEAM-MATES TO VICTORY OVER KALAMAZOO NINE

WIN SEKS HOPE PLAYING GREAT

BALL AGAINST M. I. \ . A.

FAVORITES

Hope-Kazoo

Alr-tlght ball, coupled with very

effective pitching, marked Hope's win

over the Kazoo college team, when

Colo pitched his team to a 1 to 0

victory over the Barnard crew. Cole

allowed but four scattered hits, and

fanned 12 batters. Watson working

on the mound for Kazoo pitched pood

ball allowing only two hits, striking

out 7 men, but he Issued four free

trips to the plate, one of them devel-

oping Into" the lone tally of the game.

Kazoo threatened in the second

frame putting men on third and sec-

ond with one out. ' Simmons fanned

and Johnson was out on a high fly

back of third and Kazoo's chances

were shot Hope received a chance in the 4th

whin De Groot doubled, and Howard

walked .each advancing a base on a

missed strike. Japlnga and Elenbaas

fanned however, and Bovenkerk's

grounder put Howard out on third.

In the next frame Kazoo again

threatened when Simmons singled,

and Johnson reached first on an er-

ror. Each advanced a base, but Sim-

mons was caught napping on third and was put out. Townsend walked.

but Whitney was caught out on a

popped bunt, and Howlett's fly was

captured by Howard and Kazoo was

forced to take the field.

With two out In the sixth Schrler

doubled, stole third, but Lamb next

up whiffed the air three times and

Kazoo again went scoreless.

Having gone no farther than third

base and that only once. Hope came

to bat In the eighth determined to

stick one across. De Cook, first up.

was walked, and on Cole's sacrifice, he

gained second. On a wild heave ,of

WaUon. De Cook reached third, with

Klels batting. Leon promptly singled,

scoring De Cook. De Groot fanned,

and Klels stole second, and on a wild

pitch thrown to Howard at bat. Klels

gained third. Howard's attempt was

a grounder fielded by the pitcher who

threw him out at first.

In the last frame Cole struck out

four batters, the second having reach-

ed base however on a missed last

strike. He stole second, and with two

out. Lameraux. a pinch hitter, batted

only to be struck out.

Hope's win was a mighty one as

Kazoo was the favorite in M. I. A. A.

circles, and this achievement makes

things look pretty rosy for the Hope

team, which played superb ball that

afternoon.

HOPE TRACKSTERS MEET KAZOO MEN

FRESHMEN ATHLETES ARE STARS

IN FIRST TRACK

MEET

Hope's track team made Its initial

appearance on the Kazoo track Friday

afternoon. Though it was out-run In

the track events It showed up credit-

ably in the field events. It was the

first nue t of the season for both

teams ai.J Kazoo showed remarkable

strength In all events. We say w' th-

out hesitancy that when the M. I. A.

A. meet takes places at Albion. Kazoo

must be taken Into consideration for

first place honors.

In the track events Meengs In the

220 low hurdles was outstanding for

Hope. He forced Hinkle of Kazoo

all the way to the tape only to be de-

feated for first place by a few Inches.

Mecngs with more real track training

should become outstanding In that

event by the time he reaches his Sen-

ior year.

What has been said of Meengs also

applies equally to Nauta and Wade In

the broad Jump and pole vault respec-

tively. Nauta meeting first class com-

petition In his event was forced to

accept a tie for first place with Haw-

kins who Is a three year man at track.

Wade was paired with Hathaway \p the pole vault and Incldently It might

be mentioned Hathaway Is the out-

standing man of the Kalamazoo team.

In the University of Michigan In-

door Carnival held this spring Hath-

away was the victor In the event

clearing the bar at twelve feet six

inches. Wade not undaunted by the

reputation already established by his

rival went Into the meet to force the

Kazoo man to the limit. Meeting

On February 28, 1927, the Rev. Kumajiro Kimura passed away at his home In Tokyo, Japan,' at the age of 84.

Mr Kimura was bom on January 25, 1843, the second son of "Samurai" family. He was later adopted Into the family of a Professor Kimura of Tokyo and hence his name, Kimura.

After a course ot primary study in Tokyo, he went to America and be-came a student of Hope College in 1871. He will still be remembered, to-gether with Mr Ohgimi, as a genial young man with gentle mien, tho fierce moustache. * petted rather too much by some of the good people of Holland City.

Mr Kimura was a member of the Fraternal Society of Hope College.

In April 1872 he was baptized in Hope church by Dr Steele. He grad-uated from Hope Prep. Department in 1875, from College in 1879 and from New Brunswick, N. J., Seminary in 1882.

After graduation he returned to his native land and entered the rank of ministers of the "Church of Christ in Japan." His religious acti-vities were partly as pastor of several different churches and partly in Christian educational work for Jap-anese girls. For a short time. 190D-1910, Rev. Kimura taught in our Girls' School. Ferris Seminary, at

Yokohama. He was also instrumental in the establishment of tho Y. M. C. A. work in Tokyo.

After a long spell of physical de-

bility and illness, Rev. Kimura pass-ed away leaving a wife and several sons and daughters. The funeral ser-vices took place at Pastor Ta j I ma's church of the "Church of Christ in Japan." At the services, his brethren, in the ministry, bore strong testimony to the faithfulness, devotion and usefulness of their departed co-work-

er in the service of the Lord.

SENIOR PLAY SUCCESS —

VICE PRESIDENT GIVES ADDRESS

TO STUDENT BODY

THURSDAY

Delegates to the Particular Synod of Chicago which has been holding It's meeting in Winants chapel Join-ed with the student body in devo-tional exercises on Thursday morning of last week. The services were in charge of the Synod, Rev. Dykstra, D. D., President of the Synod, in-troduced the speakers; Rev. John Steunenberg, Vice President of the Synod, gave the address; Rev. Hioker read a part of the Scriptures; and

'Rev. J. H. Mulder offered prayer. Tho address of Rev. Steunenberg

was on the subject, "A Life of Use-fulness." He said that number of years did not determine the age of a person, but that age depended upon the view of life assumed by each in-

dividual, whether that view was back-ward or forward. Having asked the question, "What is your life?", he proceeded to give certain character-istics of a life. I t is short, and hence the years of service are few; It is full of mystery; it is valuable, for Calvary will always remain a monument to the value of a human soul; and it is uncertain, and because of that fact he asked, "Have we passports for eternity?"

not control themselves—many a one was seen wiping eyes. The thought of the play, pacifism, was brought out by Doctor Arndt, Theodore Luldens In ordinary life. Miss Ruth Hyma, as Mizzi Winckelman, played her part to perfection. Miss Lucile Cunnlnghan, a young pupil of the Fealy School of Dramatic Art and Public Speaking of Grand Rapids, acted as Kurt, the little son of Mizzi. She was very much like a little boy, and was well liked. The humor of the play came out of Baruska, the maid, otherwise Miss Marie De Cook.

Margaret Fealy of the Fealy school, personally directed this four act play,

and much credit should be given to her. It was due to her that such typ-ical characters were chosen. And it

was thru her methods and efforts that the play went off as smoothly as It did.

we belittle the value of our mothers

Discusses Holy Spirit

Addressing the Y. M. on "The Work

of the Holy Spirit," Dr. J. E. Kulz-

enga Tuesday night defined the term

"Holy Spirit" as "God operating in

us." He said there are three ways thru

which we may know the Holy Spirit.

The first is through direct knowledge

as a man knows himself, the second

through inferred kriowledge, and the third through revelation.

He related tha t there are certain experiences in life from which we

infer God. The flrst fact is the thirst

for God, second a broken man may

Voorhees hall has once again been

the scene of the annual festivities in

celebration of Voorhees day. This

day observes the birthday of Mrs. Eliz-

abeth R. Voorhees to whom we are

greatly Indebted for the hall and after

whom It was named. I t Is commemor-

ated in the first part of May of each

year. Mrs. Durfee and the girls ot the

college acted as hostesses to the party

and ladles of Holland at the reception

from three to six o'clock. There were

about 150 gathered at the hall In the

course of the afternoon. The guests were received by the

Dean ,the house president, t he Y. W.

C. A. president and the presidents of

the various girls' societies. Then any

of the girls were ready to show the

visitors through the building if they

so desired. The society rooms as well .

as the rooms upstairs were open for

Inspection. Tea was served in the

dining room with Mas. Nettinga and

Mrs. Wayer presiding at the tea ta-

ble. A group of girls served the var-

ious groups about the dining roorfi.

The ladles of Holland enjoy this

chance of being entertained a t the

college and of meeting the college

girls. I t Is also an opportunity for

the s tudents to make a slight return

for all the favors done them during

the year.

(Continued from Page 3) him for thirteen hits, the Hope men

hi t the Farmer hurler for ten safeties.

The Hope twlrler went the whole

route and gave a very good account

of himself. Had the Hope nine been

able to hi t In the pinches .the Spar-

tan team would have been defeated,

for there were thirteen of our men

left stranded on the bases during the

game. Sharp fielding on the part of

the State team accounted for this

fact to a great extent. I t was no

disgrace to lose to tha t nine, as they

have large scores chalked up over Ol-

ivet, Albion ,and Adrian. In addition

defeated the strong University of

Virginia nine, and lost by a small

margin to the University of Michi-

gan Conference nine. The game at Orchard Lake was

featured with a home run by De

Groot ,the snappy Hope shortstop.

Hope gathered ten hits, while the

St. Mary's men found Tyje and Cole

for eleven blngles. Tyje, another

first year hurler, did good work for

five Innings, and Hope was leading

5-3. Then he weakened, and Schou.

ten sent In Cole. The latter was not

up to his form' displayed against Ka-

zoo ,but he held out until the end.

St. Mary's brought across the win-

ning run In the eleventh frame. Do

Groot connected safely for one other

hit besides the homer, while Klels,

Elenbaas, and Howard also got two

singles. Van Lente and Bovenkerk

connected for one safety apiece, also.'

None of these games are association

affairs, so It did not alter the stand-

ing of the team. It did give the

hurlers some excellent experience,

however, and when Olivet and Albion

are met In three games this week the

result ot fhls experience will no doubt

be evident. While dope Is not a safe

guide In many cases. It Is not amiss

to state that Michigan State won

over Albion 17-0 and Olivet 13-0

earler In the season. No doubt the

games will be close .but with the

team playing the ball it exhibited

against Kazoo on the home lot last

week. Hope will be way up in the win

column after these association games

are turned In this week.

strong competition from the other

Kazoo entrants Wade came out of the

tussle with a second place ribbon and

at the same time the first Hope man

to break Into tha t scoring column.

Popma tied for third with Mahoney

and Dorstlewltz, Hathaway's team-

mates In that event.

The next In fact the only Hope

man to break Into the second place

scoring column was Dykshorn In the

hlgU Jump . He tied for second place

with Watson . We are sorry tha t Dyke

is a senior and tha t we will be losing

him this year. If we had him another

year we would be sure of a point

scorer In that event.

The outstanding thing about the

meet was the experience gained by

the Hope men. Going out for the

sport not only to work for their

school but als6 for the pleasure of

tho sport, they have showed remark-

able results in so short a time. Work-

ing out their problems by themselves

they did not flinch when placed

against the strongest of competition.

In the near fu tu re the team will

travel to Olivet to engage the tracks-

ters of t h a t school. With the exper-

ience of th i s meet we look for a won-

derful record from our men. The

school has In Its track men some won-

derful material and like all plants

t ha t are Just beginning to sprout It

will need the utmost of care In culti-

vating. As Rome was not built in a

day neither will our track team startle

the world this season, but If they can

receive the right attention and t ra in-

ing necessary for such a sport t h « ^

will bring to the school as much If

not more credit than the team of

1916.

Editor's Note—It was in 1910 tha t

the University of Michigan Inaugur-

ated the Indoor Carnival. Hope sending

two representatives to the meet re-

turned the victors In the 100 yard
