Evolution of Man Hurts no Religion Zoologist Claims
Man Has Developed Same as All Lower Animals, or Theory Must be Dropped
"Every line of evidence considered in relation to evolution in lower forms of animal life finds equal application in relation to man. We have to admit that evolution is the same through evolution as have other animals or discard the whole theory," said Prof. Henry H. Lane, of the department of zoology, in the first of a series of discussions on "Science and Evolution" from the program in the University church, Sunday.
"The conflicts which have arisen between religion and science have been conflicts between ignorance and new discoveries." Professor Lane continued. "The apparent opposition of the church to science has arisen through its failure to adjust itself to the challenges of progress in scientific discovery.
"The great conflicts between science and religion have been over the age of the earth, its shape, the question of whether the earth or the sun was the center of the solar system, the antithesis of these two, finally the origin of man."
Experiments Prove Theory
Doctrine is not New
The theory is based largely on results obtained from the study of genetic relationship, comparative anatomy, and embryology and scientific experiments. Especially important among these last is the series of experiments recently conducted by Nutlall showing the chemical similarity of human blood and that of the anthropoid ape. "The real reason that every biological species needed to be introduced to Professor Lane, "is to be found in his every day experience with phenomena which converge toward this theory."
The doctrine of evolution is by no means new, according to Professor Lane. Aristotle mentioned a similar idea in his writings but discarded it. Much of the modern opposition to the theory has arisen from the fact that Darwin's general theory of evolution and Darwin's special theory of natural selection.
In conclusion Professor Lane characterized the realms of selence and religion as entirely distinct. The one thing that separates them is interpretative, subjective rather than objective, and concerned with the immaterial. Philosophy bridges the gap between the two. Professor Lane continues the discussion next Sunday.

Railway Shopmen's Head Not to Meet With Davis
Topeka, April 16—B. M. Jewell head of the Railway Shopman's office, is not coming to Kansas to confer with Governor Davis in the governor's effort to use the Kansas industrial court to induce the railway shopmen employees, who went on last July, to return to their jobs.

Growth of R. O.T.C Shows Encouragement Due to Training Need
People Realize Value Military Knowledge Gives to Those In Civic Life
"In general the outlook of the R. O. T. C is very encouraging," said Maj. W. H. Lannaghan, of the office of the National Office, D.C., in an interview recently.
"The R. O, T. C. is growing steadily and not on account of fear of immediate war. People are coming here and we have a certain amount of military knowledge. The R. O, T. C. is for the purpose of giving men who are going into civil life, this knowledge. These people will reserve to keep the system go."
"There are nearly 60,000 men in the 125 colleges in the United States that have military units or are in it for that sole purpose. In a great majority of these years are compulsory. This is due, in part, to the fact that many schools are land grant schools. That is, they have received land from the government and are obligated in this way. They also have there are 3,000 in the engineer units."
In the University about 10 per cent of the men students are members of the R. O. T. C, and the number is growing every year. The United States is divided into nine areas and these in turn are divided into the various divisions of the army. Uni-
tities are also taught over the entire system.
