DOINGS At BROWN.
Dean Hodges breaches al vesper Services.
Date for Coming Debate Selected.

The last vesper service was held yes
terday afternoon, DR.. George Hodges
dean OF the Episcopal Theological school
at Cambridge, being the preacher for the
occasion.
He took as his text the parable OF the
feeding OF the 5000. and spoke In part
as follows:
THE old idea was that the miracles
OF Christ were done in contradiction to
law. Now we believe that all miracles
are done In accordance with law. We
have only FIVE senses with which 70 get
an idea OF the world. and we really Know
very little about this world II Is not
unreasonable to believe that the miracles
were done in accordance with laws about
which we know nothing as yet
1--WE can take this parable home to
ourselves We are the II who have. and
the multitudes in the slums are the 1000.
II Is our duty 20 take up this problem
and live n life OF service for the down
trcdden OF the world"
Johns Hopkins has indicated its pref
erence for April q as the date for the
Brown debate. and that date will proba-
bly, be accepted by Brown. II Is possible
that Brown may suggest slight change
I'm the wording OF the question TO bring
about greater clearncss. The final trials
for the team will take place April 2 at
which time the prize given by Mr.. Hicks
viii be awarded.
