THE OUTLOOK OF YOUTH
It is with a knowing smile that the mature public generally greets an effort on the part of youth to find a solution for the problem of life and the milestones of life. And this attitude is not without reason. Only too often does youth attack its program of reform with a complete indifference to the magnitude of the task that justly warrants criticism.
For this reason, the recent Milwaukee student conference should be a gratifying thing to the elder generation. There a cross-section of the collegiate youth of Americain attacked the wide range of complex problems offered by life itself with an attitudes credible to the ablest and nearest minds of any generation.
Naturally, it was assumed that problems do exist, and that the difficulties of mature life tie up with campus life as well. Upon that basis it was determined that the students had not gathered to discover final solutions, panacias, or ultimate answers. It was agreed that the problems of life are continuous; that each age, each generation must devise its own solutions, ever changing, altering them as the implications of the problems themselves vary.
Surely no wiser attitude could have been chosen by a gathering of our maturist minds. True crouch, wiser minds might have discovered wiser solutions for the time being. But the importance is not so much in the solutions as in the attitude in which they are found, for the solutions are never final, while the attitude remains the same. With youth basing its outlook upon life in the open minded fashion the world need not worry a great deal over its disposition when it ultimately finds itself in the bands of that youth.
The man who spent three days on a cake of ice reports that he got a big chilly—think the poor evil.
THE TIPICA ORCHESTRA
A delightful, but peculiar, program of music is in store for the students and faculty members of the University Thursday afternoon, when the Tipica orchestra of Mexico gives its matinee concert in Robinson gymnasium.
Lighter musical numbers, mostly of native Mexican character, will be in predominance on the program, with native interpretations of American music interspersed.
The orchestra makes a peculiar appearance on the stage, as the instruments used are of native origin and are very different from those found in the modern American musical organization. Many of them are very simple in form and operation, yet the music produced from them is so pleasant that it holds the audience almost enchanted from the opening number to the close of the program.
Critics in nearby cities where the Tipica orchestra has appeared within the past two weeks speak very highly of it. A love of music, together with a curiosity as to the nature of native Mexican music, should insure this touring organization a good patronage on Mt. Oread Thursday.
GHOSTS
The lovelyest are perished. And now
Ghosts in this garden, that hollow and clamorous
Come as blanched lepers crying, "Do not spurn us."
Ringing in my ears, wetting my eyes,
The obsequious phantoms and dis-
bodies sink.
Soon they are frightened, and go fast,
a smoke
Which cling about my quince bushes then broke.
O Hilda, proudest of ladies gone.
And while I look is smeared upon the skies.
O'Drum, proudest of James gone.
Wrethning my roses with blue bitter dust.
Think not I would reject you, for I must
Weep for your nakedness and no retinue
And leap up axes of old to follow you—
But flush kath monstrous gravity, a
of stone.
—by John Crowe Ronsom in Harper's.
PLUGGED SHOWERS
Among those little things that make life less cheerful are the showers in the basement of the gymnasium. Now those showers are first rate in conception, their only trouble is through deterioration.
Through some means or others, probably the lime in Lawrencie water, or perhaps diluted Kansas prairies, the tiny holes in the sprays of the showers have become corroded, about seven inches of them. The result is interesting to behold, but not to partici-ate in.
There is power back of Lawrence water, or it is Hill water. At any rate it spouts out of the remaining ortfices with pressure sufficient to knock buttons off a brass statue. On the made flesh such drastic means of removing fifth are entirely unnecessary. Even a well seasoned hobo could be cleansed with a meessy half the head now being wasted on 'nermless gymnasium students.
Really, it would be a very simple matter to have the rest of the holes in the sprays cleaned out. Why doesn't one male minded volunteer volunteer?
--is not advocacy of asceticism, for asceticism worship discomfort as an end in itself; Christianity brings discom-
form by-product in the progress of society; and religion can no longer and there can be no growth without pain. In such fashion did Doctor Niesbähl present the social aspects of reje-
jion as opposed to its old individuali-
ness.
Notes From the Conference
at Milwaukee
Dr. Edward Schollier
At the opening of the National Student Conference the newspapers of Milwaukee were early on the job of seeking news. "What is it all about?" they asked those in charge. "We are meeting here to find what resources Jesus has for life in our world," was the reply, "But that's not news," men of the news, and they sought nationalism. Hence petting and women smoking is the public check mark for the Milwaukee conference.
It is essential to know, therefore, that the thousands of students who gathered there, though they came on occasion, daily life from a religious angle, came to recognize the Heiliged Christians and believers. They came, rather, because they were doubters, unorthodox though this may be. And they came as doubters, for it was hard to believe in Christianity. Scepticism is not at fault; it is cynicism that is the bane of our western civilization, as Reinhold Niebuhr, the Detroit minister, said capitalized protest to free speech for laborists in the churches, put it.
Thus it would appear that our civilization, which is typified by a "platoon" in a high powered automobile," so not long as it has youth which, when it tires of the jaded thrills of life, seeks to know what life finally is all about. And that is what took some three hundred students to Miwaukee.
Christianity Imprecipal
No one could come from that gathering without renewed confidence in humanity, which when analyzed, is a renewed confidence in the Christian relation. And there is your "faith," that the mark for your eyes and deprivation and the mark for your cynics, not stomach "faith" any more, use a little "confidence" and see if life does not run smoothly.
Potentially Christian as youth is today the modern world does not believe in Christianity because it is impractical to so believe. We live in a practical world. Christianity must suffer the consequences and demands detachment from our civilization, from our power, to the sensual pleasures of life, and to the nationalist theory that the group can do no wrong.
Hence, Christianity does not promote a life of pure content and happiness. It demands that individuals live above all else to achieve the best for the sake of better society. It is

"What was it all about?" you ask. It was about life itself; that inexplicable process to which there is no answer; only such transitional answer that each generation may find as best it can in the light of its day. That is why it is so difficult to tried to do in a partial manner for its generation. It is a continuous a process as life itself. Perhaps that is why man is "incurably religious."

"Science arranges the great book of the universe in chronological order, showing the inter-relation of all things, the unity of the universe; the creation of the universe," Religion explains the meaning of the universe, and shows us its beauty and goodness. Only a poet like Kennedy would sketch the picture in terms and only he would think of it as if he had hair I could not see the Christ."
There is a man who will arose respect in any one. Doctor Kennedy, more divine than human, has suffered the depths of the London slums, the horrors of the War; the marks neapolitan on his face, and he seems to carry the curse of a world steeped in crime and insidious carcerion of Nazareth. as long as evil is in the world Christianity will continue to be crucified.
The January tea of the University Women's Club has been postponed from Thursday, Jan. 6, to Friday, Jan. 7, at 3 o'clock in Myers hall. This is the annual Guest Tea, and each member may bring a guest.
Denominationalism Futile
AGNES HUSBAND, Director
Over against a world worshiping the "Great God Whir" as he phrased it, was the myxie, G.A. Stauder Ken-ler, plain to King George, who declared:
"You ask me how I know that God is good. I don't know. I grabile like a man. You want to argue. I will argue. You have a matter of choice—and I own Claus."
"Religion is outworsing its dooms, superiority complexes, statistical yardsticks and sectarian programs with painful relief," and Dr. Charles W. Giloy, university pastor of Chicago, wrote in the national demonstractionalism. Yet with that fatality not come as a corollary, mental shelving, as was shown by such divergence of opinion as that of Niebuhr and Kennedy. These held an imminent threat to the status of merits of capitalism. Doctor Niebuhr enumerated the evils of capitalism and arraigned the churches as crawn subjects of the existing industrial order, which he defended capitalism, stressed its own guilt at the stamp of Christianity.
MRS. F. B. DAINS.
Christianity did not "get by" seet freedom by any means. We the school's Dr. Timothy T. Lew of Yenching university, Peking, who told the delegate that Christianity is considered the most tractable of religions.
The complete compatibility of scientific thought and religious faith were agreed upon by all the speakers on that subject, including Dr. Robert A. Mullan of scientific fame, Doctor Kerenkian of profitered F., Prof. Filmer C. N. Northrop of Yale. Science and religion are two supplementary studies of the same book, the universe, was the essence of Kennedy's address. Doctor Millikan completed a process by which our conception of change from one of vengeance and an object of propitiation to a God who functions through natural laws.
