DIR. L|NDLEY
DELIVERED A
STR0NG|TALK
PRESIDENT OF UNIVERSITY OF
IDAHO ADDRESSED CHAPEL
AT 1880 TODAY
THE THIRD INGREDIENT
SCIENTIFIC AND RELIGIOUS AD-
DRESS WAS HEARD BY MANY
CITIZENS OF MOSCOW

In a brilliantly epigrammatic ad-
dress, President Ernest H. Lindley of
the university this morning portrayed
the essential value of religion, "the
third Ingredient" before an assembly
audience comprising both students
and townspeople.
"The work of our hands and the
work of our brains," he said, form
the solid contributions to our lives,
but the result is somewhat unpalata-
BILE, falls short of completion without
the third ingredient, this creative
synthesis, if you WILL religion"
Speaking of the function of religion
as comparable to a food which raises
an organism to new levels of assim-
ilation, Dr. Lindley went on to a con-
sideration of the inadequacy of the So
cial spirit and the scientific spirit as
life guides either in fusion or singly.
He stated that the great achieve
ment of the past 25 years in science
IdO OOCl LhC lOSOSnlllOl VI CuC IOldl
organic life which includes the mind,
the consciousness, of both man and
animal, and eulogized William James
as the American who has carried the
doctrine of evolution from the biolog-
ical realm into the mental realm.
Men of SCIENCE he insisted, "have
been shown that there is third in
gredient.' Religion now says to the
scientist with dignity and austerity,
if you don't walk in at the open door
you must remain out at, your peril.'''
DR.. Lindley spoke of religion as the
greatest stimulant ever discovered,
saying that it represents the cropping
of men to find something that may
awaken sleeping powers and posting
that religious faith is the greatest of
emotional experiences.
Passing on to an analysis of human
emotions in their exalting and de-
pressing effects, he said that God
means the sum total of all the things
that men deeply and insistently care
for as far as these desires are organ
lied and purified and spoke of theol-
ogies as attempts made to articulate
the supremely important things of life
as they have been garnered from ex-
periments in living.
One of his striking closing thoughts !
was contained in the statement that |
the law of exercise is applicable to
the religious spirit and in an insist
ence upon tolerant consideration of |
religious systems as the sum of the
plans men have devised for the exer-
Else of the religious spirit.

NO PRISONERS TAKEN

WITH THE AMERICAN ARMY IN
Associated Press-There
is greater artillery activity by the Am
ericans on the Toul sector today than
at any time since they took their po-
sitions there.
American shells obliterated at least
five groups of German gas projectors
which had been set up by the enemy
in preparations for an attack.
Fires back of the German lines were
also caused by the American shell fire
and a number of heavy explosions
were heard, indicating that ammuni-
ton depots had been hit and blown up.
The Americans on the Toul sector
again raided the German trenches,
penetrating to the second line.
No prisoners were captured but
many Germans were killed by the she'll
and rifle fire.
Along the Chemin des Danes, the
crew of a German raider which fell
as Clamency Monday night, were made
prisoners by the American soldiers.
The German prisoners were later
turned over to the French.

II can not comment on my teams

comparative scores upon which to
base predictions as to possible win

to be distinctly in the contesting and
many of its aherents expected Coach
Werrell's team to appear in the finals
but Nezperce, Boise, Post Falls, Twin
Falls, Sugar City, Occur d'Alene and
perhaps several dark horse aggrega-
tions will be sure to make the road to
the state title both stony and tortu-,
Gus.
Coach w. C. Bleamaster received
word late yesterday afternoon to the
effect that Sugar City and not Aber-

GLAD GERMANS SHOW HAND

Commenting on the great battle in France. the Sunday Times says:
 Tn all previous great assaults the chief success has been gained at the first thrust. but in this battle whereas the Germans were unable tO issue a flowery report at the close of the first day it has to b. admitted that their second and third communiques will be more satisfactory from the point O. view. The German military caste are out of victory. even if to gain they must destroy the people to whom they promised its fruits. They have already flung nearly one-third of their entire western resources against the sector measuring one tenth of the western front and must continue to fling fresh divisions into the blood bath
 With time on our side and fewer troops exposed to the death blast, we may reasonably count on holding in hand reserves powerful enough 10 deal a crushing counetr stroke when Von Hindenburg has shattered his last leg against the impregnable British wall :"
 Nothing we have heard un 10 the present would lead me Co think that anything has happened which could not have been expected. There is no reason to come to the conclusion that
Bisbee daily review., 1918-03-24

things are looking bad" General Sir Horace | lockwood Smith Dorrien says in an Interview with the Weekly Dis patch.
 The Manchester Guardian points out that at no point except one would a German victory be strategically deci- sive. adding:
 That point is south Of st. Quentin. where a continuation of the present rate Of advance would imperil the post tiOn of the French north of the Aisne. Here then south O. St. Quentin. is the chief danser zone"
 The point made by the Guardian IS of inetrest in connection with Field Marshal Haig's official report this morning saying that the Germans had broken through west of St. Quentin.
 The Daily News says:
 "AlthOugh the allied strength will reach it's maximum only as the full force of America's contribution to the war is felt. the onening of the great est battle the world has known is re- ceived with something like relief The salient fact about the offensive now in progress is that it's authors cannot afford to fail They cannot afford to face a country left, after another summer of battle to count it's gains and find them no more than a myriad of nameless graves"

0Ry Review Lensed wIre1


 LONDON, March 23.--While clouds of uncertainty obscure the deails of the worlds greatest battle. the guns of which are heard in London tonight, tbere is a measure of relief felt that Germany has finally shown her hand.
 The purpose and method of her long talked of blow are now plain. Hin- dehburgs objective undoubtedly is channel ports but he purposes to take the first step toward them by break ing through the allies line near the junction of the French and British armies.
 The attack has shown no new stra- tegy. but appears to be simply a col lossal blow with masses of guns and men hitherto never used. There is no surprise that the British line has been forced back Lines of defense have bent before all great offansives in this war. What the British people look to the army for is that it shall not break.
 With usual caution. the German of- ficial reports of the first days fight ing did not reveal to their own peo- pie the extent or importance of the effort. Only when a partial success has been recorded was Emperor Will liam designated as commander in chief and the crown prince mentioned.
