   ANARCHY IN THE UNITED STATES

Anarchy is a social condition (some say It Isn't social) which without government permits every individual to have the fullest self expression that he can secure for himself. This is the ultimate of 'Individualism" as we now conceive It.

The organized society begins when the group starts legislating and restraining for the benefits of all members, finding its completion in a socialistic or purely communistic state.

The upper class in America are the most Anarchistic group In the' world at present, for in practice they are limited by nothing. Their money, power, and political contact. In courts or at large nullifys all law for the' good of the masses, and leaves them unhampered to pursue the fullest expression they can plan for themselves by simply maneuvering their money and "pull."

It matters not whether it is economic strangulation, sex orgies, physical, mental, social or recreational starvation which their acts promulgate, so long as they have money they are limited only by their ability to maneuver It for their ends.

You may say that the upper class cooperate. Yes. they cooperate hut In the interest of greater anarchy. You say they donate to charity and are benevolent, but It is simply one form of their maneuvering In order to subjugate the masses for greater expression thru unarchy.—Submitted.

CHAPEL MUSIC

The music department furnishes music of high quality as preludes and recessionals in chapel programs. This music represents work and expense on the part of each performer, but Is given to the student body free of all, charges. Students listen or not as it pleases them, talk and laugh without, care for the selection or the person playing. At the close half a dozen people will applaud, another half dozen give one clap, thereby drawing, the failure out painfully. If students really enjoy the music, why not make It known by a good round of hearty applause; if not, why make it ao evident by half-hearted applause.—Ennuye Satirist.

OF AMERICAN VOCAL TALENT

Son of J. S. Rice Heard Nothing Best African Music Until Coming To America—Rice Taught In Industrial School In Natal, South Africa-—American Tobacco Companies Sell  Cigarettes To The Natives

By EDNA NYQUIST

Speaking of provincialism there is at least one student In McPherson college who has a world-wide vision and Shat man is Mr. J. S. Rice, who has been on the African mission field for seventeen years. You'll notice him around the campus, perhaps, not because he tires to make himself conspicuous but because he Is conspicuously kindly In his attitude.

Mr. Rice decided to be a missionary 25 years ago an a representative of the Free Methodist church—so he went to the Mechanics Institute of New York and after studying there he Journeyed to England and thence to the beautiful foothills of the Inzalle moutains in Natal. South Africa Here he taught In an industrial school for boys which was established and maintained by the Free Methodist church. The school gave these black-skinned boys training In tanning, carpentry, tailoring, blacksmithing, motor-mechanics, wagon-making, and leather work.

Wed., Jan. 28—in chapel this morning Dr V. F. Schwalm, who has Just recently returned from a convention of the Association of American colleges at Indianapolis, related a few of his personal reactions from the meetings.

"One of the most outstanding speakers at the Indianapolis meeting,” Dr. Schwalm stated, “was La-rado Taft, the sculptor. His address came from overflowing heart of an old man. The people of this age need someone to direct, teach and Instill in them the beauty that is around them,"

After all, the speaker asserted, life is simple and art is simple if you make it so, Everything depends on the individual. In closing Dr. Schwalm said. “If you want to live life the highest devote your life to the fullest."

fables, parables and allegories, lyric poetry, dramatic and epic forms. visions and symbols, and such prose forms as biography, history, and the essay. The second feature of the method is the comparison of the biblical material with other literature of the same type or theme.

The aim of Dr. Culler's book Is to present the Bible as literature, so that It may be associated with and thought of as a part of the literary Inheritance. The method of the book Is meant to be inductive. This book Is the result of lectures given with increasing Interest at various places to widely differing audiences and should appeal to both popular renders and scholars.
