The Official Student Paper of the University of Kansas
Organizations Plan Religious Services; Will Start Feb. 22
Three Groups Collaborate in Securing Authorities on Program
ROBED CHOIR TO SING
Three campus organizations at the University, the council of religious workers in the city, and the School of Fine Arts, have collaborated in an effort to bring to Kansas students and faculty members a series of programs designed to educate the semester that will be both entertaining and educational, and at the same time offer them opportunities on other programs given in the past.
Opening Services Feb. 22
The opening service will be held Sunday in the University auditorium. The Rev. Russell Henry Stanford, minister to the Old South Church in Boston and author of a recently published volume "Christian Education for Today," occasion. A robed chorus choir of approximately 190 voices, under the direction of Dean Donald Swarthout, of the Arts, will sing special sacred names.
"We services," the Rev. Charles W. Thomas, president of the council of trustees at the University, and the students and faculty members of the University, religion at its best in challenging messages for the present day in inspiring music, and in dignified works.
"This service will represent the beginning of a very significant movement," Henry Werner, dean of men at the university, said. "The curricular importance it is possible without an equal on the campus at the present moment. The services are primarily for students in every sense based on an appeal to the intelligence."
Werner Thinks Move Valuable
"The aims, as I see them," Mr. Warner continued, "are embodied in one of the ten principles of the advance that are being made on the firing line of present day religion. On looking over the program we have no evidence of retrogressive evangelism."
Mr. Werner also said that there is undoubtedly an offer being made to the university for advancing religious thought through the medium of speakers possessed of universally acclaimed training.
"There is no student on this Hill who can afford to pass by this opportunity," Mr Werner went on. "To the church, before, and to request it would be to display pitiful agony. I understand the churches of Lawrence have given one-hundred per co-op operation individual services on these occasions."
Stafford to Give First Address
Dorsey Stafford, who is to address the first lecture address to the class of 1927 Bob Epstein, an alumni residenthabitat church in the Chicago area, to Episcopal church, will address the second service of the series March 29.
"The services will therefore be, I take it, union services. They are prepared for students, and the most significant thing of all is that the speakers are men capable of looking at real life through the eyes of 'growth' youth.
“This will be the first time in which we entire University has observed Thomas, the great teacher of Thomas said, “and the occasion bespeaks the spirit of unity with which we are engaged with our interest of advancing in the life of its campus the great common values of humanity.”
Special Committee Makes Plans
"In order that all students may be able to attend school, the Special Committee is set at 7 o'clock with prompt dismissal at 8. The several denominational young people's groups will disband on Thursday and return in the all-University gathering."
These services are being planned by an all-University committee of faculty members, including representatives of the convention committee, the School of Fine Arts, and the council of religious committees. The faculty committee in charge of arrangements are Prof. Henry Werner, charge of publication, and the Rev. Edwin Price, religion.
The student committee has as its members Catherine McFarlane, Felix Manley, Inabe Neale, Rogers Krutochil and Owen Paul.
