D. 4. HILL, JR.

A. & NJ. College, Miss, Sept. 2S,--
Seldom is the student body privileg-
ed to hear more effective and help.
ful message from 4 speaker than was
delivered by DR.. Hull at the weekly
chapel convocation yesterday. He
spoke ON the theme "Be Ye Not
Afraid OF Them, taking his intro
ductory thoughts from Holy writ, in
the book of Ezekiel. The speaker
emphasized that every man is his
brothers keeper and every man is
his brothers keeper. and that every
one is individually as well as collec-
lively responsible for the welfare
OF society. Duties that present them
selves in the light of this idea are
often, however, disagreeable, hard,
and even dangerous at times, but the
man who shirks is never the man
who accomplishes things worth
while. President Hull deplored the
strong tendency of modern time to
wink at wrong doing. to cover up
lawlessness and to hamper rather
than support and help those who
have the enforcement of the law Of
ficially in charge. He closed with a
sweeping challenge to faculty mem
bers and students to stand shoulder
to shoulder, four square to the world
against prevailing wrongs, constitut-
ing themselves as watchman, band
ed together for mutual protection
against the enemy Of mems, souls.
All In the large audience were i'm
pressed with the honest sincerely Of
the message and with the telling
force with which it was delivered.
