In a Thanksgiving service held at
American headquarters in France
General Pershing addressed the
soldiers in language which revealed
his reverent recognition OF Gods
part in the great victory. Such
lofty sentiments expressed by the
General OF Americas forces in the
great struggle give US added reason
for thanksgiving that a man OF such
deep spiritual conviction was placed
in command Of our armies. IL au-
gurs well for the, future OF our
country that such men are selected
TO lead in our national affairs.
The text OF General Pershing's
address follows:
'Fellow-sOldiers, never in the
history OF our country have we, as
a people, come together with such
full hearts as on this greatest Of all
Thanksgiving days. The moment
throbs with emotion, seeking 10 find
full expression. Representing the
high ideals Of our countrymen and
cherishing the spirit Of our fore
fathers who first celebrated this fes-
tival Of thanksgiving, we are proud
TO have repaid a debt Of gratitude
TO the land Of Lafayette and TO have
lent our aid in saving civilization
from destruction.
The INSCRIPTIONS invader has
been driven from the devastated
scenes OF his unholy conquet. The
tide Of conflict which-during the
dark days Of midsummer threat
ened TO overwhelm the Allied forces
hes been turned into glorious vic
tory. As the sounds Of battle die
away and the beaten foe hurries from
the field, il is fitting that the con-
quering armies should pause TO give
thanks TO the God of battles, who
has guided our cause Alright.
Victory was our goal. IL is a
hard-won gift Of the soldier TO his
country. Only a soldier knows the
cost Of a gift we now present to the
nation. As soldiers inspired by
every spiritual sentiment, we have
each silently prayed that the sue
cess Of Righteousness should be
ours. Today with thankfulness, we
humbly acknowledge that His
strength has given us victory. We
are thankful that the privilege has
been given to us TO serve in such a
cause.
The Dead Heroes

eternal gratitude goes out to those
heroes who loved liberty better than

life, who sleep yonder, where they
fell, TO the MANNED whose honorable
scars testify stronger than words
TO their splendid valor, and 10 the
brave fellows whose strong, relent-
less blows finally crushed the en-
emy's power.
Nor in our prayers shall we for
get the widow who freely gave the
husband, more precious than her
life, nor those who, in hidden hero
ism, have impoverished themselves
TO enrich the cause, nor our COM
rades who in more obscure posts
here and at home have furnished
their toll to the soldiers at the
front.
TO many fame has come. New
names have been inscribed on the
roll Of the immortals. To all have
come new outlook on life, o clear
er perspective regarding its obliga-
tions, a more exalted conception Of
duty and hOnOr and deeper sense
Of responsibility TO the nation and
TO God.
May we give thanks that unself-
ish service has given us this new
vision. that we are able TO return
10 our flresides and our country with
higher aims and q flrmer purpose
alike enobling to ourselves and to
those who have held long virgil and
have prayed for us that we might
worthily represent them.
The Right Spirit
This spirit that has won the vic
tory is TO become a permanent and
indispensable mainstay Of peace and
happiness. IL is not a matter OF in
dividual choice but of obligation,
that we should proudly carry back
with us. II the glory Of our mil
itary service has been a spontane-
Gus offering of loyalty, it is too
priceless TO be cast aside by in
diligence and too sacred not 10 be
cherished always.
Our nation awaits the return Of
It's soldiers, believing in the stability
OF character that has come from
self discipline, and self-sacritlce.
Confident Of the new power that the
stern school of war and discipline
has brought to each of us, American
mothers await with loving hearts
their gallant sons. Great cause, in
deed, have we TO thank God for
trials successfully met and victories
won. Still more should we thank
Him for the golden future, with its
wealth of opportunity and its hope
of a permanent universal peace"

THANKSGIVING DAY SERVICE

The Chapel was we'll filed with
students and citizens last Thursday
for the Thanksgiving service. DR..
Mead presided, and Prof. Rigby led
in the service Of song. The pastors
OF the local churches were on the
platform and each took part in the
service.
An interesting prelude was brief
talk by Capt. Baker, who recently
returned from France. He went
over the top" at Chateau Thierry
and other battles, and vas able 10
speak from actual experience in
warfare. He also spoke with much
appreciation OF the work which is
being done for the soldiers by the
Red Cross and Y. M. C. A.
The chairman in introducing the
Rev. w. H. Hudnut as the speaker
Of the occasion, referred TO the i'm
portant work which he is doing In
Youngstown, Ohio, as pastor OF one
of the largest Presbyterian churches
in the country.
DR.. Hudnut prefaced his address
by a few words OF appreciation Of
Berea's work. Tho this was his
first visit to the College he had
known OF the work which is being
carried on and had a personal in.
terest, because his church had been
privileged TO contribute TO Berea's
support.
His address set forth in eloquent
language the underlying reasons for
Americas thanksgiving this year.
We should be thankful for the
great part which England, France
and Belgium had played in holding
back the Boche hordes until Amer
lea was ready 10 take her place by
their side in the great fight for the
worlds freedom.
We should be thankful for the
wonderful spirit of loyalty and he
roism with which our soldiers had
entered the conflict, and for the
spirit of unity which pervaded our
whole nation in carrying on the
war.
We should be thankful for the
vindication of our faith in Gods
overriding Sovereignty among the
nations of the earth, making even
the wrath of men to praise Him.
The speaker expressed his con-
viction that one of the significant
spiritual results Of the war would
be our deepened sense of the value
of sacrifice. We shall want TO be
worthy of the great price in blood
which has been paid for our liberty.
We shall not be satisfied with SEN
timental patriotism-our ideals will
be transmitted into higher living.
He referred TO the great problems
of reconstruction confronting our
nation and the other nations Of the
world. In the terms Of peace we
desire justice and not revenge. The
rights of all people-even our enc
mies-must be considered, and the
map of Europe and the world so re-
made that the weakest nation may
have their boundary lines estab-
lished-equitably, without fear Of
invasion.
The closing moments Of the hour
following the sermon were spent in
very hearty praise service, con-
Quoted by DR.. Raymond, in which
many gave expression to their
thankfulness for personal or ma
tional blessings.

matured and the school as it is pro-
crossing through the efforts of the
younger men. The observer who would
wish to know the present worth of
American sculpture may here find out.
1t is the problem at large that invites
that so many Of the sculptures have
been seen and discussed before and
hence require little, il any individual,
comment. One looks to broad aspects
of development, to the essential ele-
ments in the subject. From this point
Of view one is at the outset little
disappointed. Originality is the great
desideratum in the arts. 1t has always
upheaval of personality in the Italian
Renaissance was fairly unique oc-
currence. Since that period no country,
not even. France, where sculpture has
peculiarly flourished, has had anything
like the same galaxy of talents active at
one time. Our own school is still
young 1t has developed since Saint
Gaudens, no one possessing gifts as
salient as his, and of late some of the
youths of brightest promise have fallen
under an unfortunate blight. The
"archaic" movement, if we may thus
loosely designate the current mode
represented here by Mr.. Paul Manship
and Mr.. Sherry Fry, threatens to dry
up the springs of true plastic art under
the pressure of d specious artiticlallty.
But happily. this movement gives no
sign that it is to endure. There are
sounder auguries of the future in the
works of juniors like Mr., James E.
Fraser and Mr. Rudolph Evans. The
latter has made a notable statue in
~ he Golden Hour" a conception I'M
mistakably derived from Greek sources,
but revealing in its quality the vital
workmanship in which American sculpt-
ure must rest if it is to reach a fitting
goal. Originality, we repeat, is not at
all abundant in this exhibition, but Mr.
Fraser and Mr. Evans have it, and what
is more. they bring arrestingly to the
surface the principal merit of the
whole school.
We have already defined that merit.
1t is vital workmanship, the basing of
ideas upon an instructed and skilful
handling Of form. Often at the
Academy or in some Of the smaller ex-
hibtions of sculpture we have been

to it. The new tribute is due, we
understand, very largely to the ardor
of Mr.. Daniel Chester French, who in
this exhibition realizes, in fact, dream
entertained for years. 1t is easy to
understand the enthusiasm with which
he conceived the idea and worked for
it, Roughly speaking, the painters

emy, it appears occasionally IN the
zone man" show, as in the case of Mr.
O'Connor's brilliant exhibition this
season, and the dealers do their part;
but we have had to wait for precisely
the demonstration that Mr.. French has
promoted at the museum. Made chair
man of the committee formed among
the trustees, he has also had the ad
vantage of Mr. Herbert Adams's asso-
citation with that body, and of the spe-
cal appointment Of Mr.. James Z.
Fraser and Mr.. A. A. Weinman as
members in an advisory capacity. In
other words, the purpose of the .mu-
scum has been to have the interests of
American sculpture affirmed as it were
from within, leaving it to experienced
practitioners of the art to assemble
a body of some fourscore examples, to
place them in the appointed rooms, to
Iota ho inf ~
rounding walls, and in every way to
see that the occasion developed the
right conditions. Mr.. French and his
colleagues are to be congratulated on
the result.
Their exhibition might be character
lied as condensation of historical
evidence, a tangible summary of the
traits Of a school. They have not
attempted too much. The record does
not throw back too far. In fact, the
only figure from the old regime is DR..
Brimmer, whose "Falling Gladiator" is
welcome as marking the point of de-
parture from which our renaissance
sprang. The late J. @. A. Wards
