About 200 members OF South Bend

at a Columbus Day banquet in Ka-
ble's hall last night 10 honor the

POSTMASTER. Rev. Thomas Irving.
c. S. C. vice-president of Notre Dame
University, was the principal speaker
1T is difficult for US to understand
a previous age" said Father Irving.
in opening his address with a re-
view Of the period in which the dis.
cOverer Of America sought recognl-
ton for his ideals 430 years ago
The speaker declared himself at a
loss to explain the extraordinary
perception. courage and perseyer-
ance. Of Columbus from the stand
point Of human motives. He said
that II must nave been but another
instance OF God raising up a leader
among men for the accomplishing
OF some great work.
Man OF Faith"
4 do not believe that it could
have been purely human motives
which prompted Columbus" asserted
Father Irving. for many who were
then confined in prisons refused to
accompany the explorer as the price
Of their liberty. II was an age OF
faith, and Columbus was a man OF
faith. lie was a frugal man, pru
dent. fine. undetermined and d lover
Of Justice. 1t would seem that he
must have had a subcOnscious feel
ing Of the destiny which was his.
Turning from that period TO the
present, he continued, This may be
called the age of the layman. Some
say that it is a self-satisfied world
in which we live today. If such
is true. then its principles are wrong.
for in Gods work there is definite
design and order. He has made
design for mans, life that must be
followed, if man is to secure peace,
contentment. and If he hopes to get
the pest out OF Ire.
They say that we are making
progress. Sometimes, think that
in essentials, at least, the reverse is
true. The finest things are being
jeOpardized. Men are led by a false
philosophy. by false principles. Man
seems 10 forget the spiritual side,
In our schools there are men who
teach that death is the end; that
after 1t there is nothing; that we
should therefore make the most OF
this life. AS a result we act con-
trary to the commands of God
Therefore there can be no peace and
happiness until you have truth and
the right principles"
Others Speak
Enlarging upon his statement that
this is the age of the layman. he
advised the men present that It is
within their province TO exert a
powerful influence for good. This
he urged them TO do. telling them
that men without faith and lacking
the right principles for guidance
have, nevertheless. an admiration
and respect for men who follow the
right.
Aaron Huguenard Of the law firm

Next Saturday the Naval Academy

the University OF Pennsylvania, admit
ted TO be one Of the strongest college

Both scores Of the Navy came In the
FIRST half, a penalty goal kicked BY
Creehan after thirty. minutes OF play,
and a kick from the 10-yard line by
Moore in the last minute Of play IN the
same period, after the ball had been
brought from midfeld by very clever
drbbling and passing.
The Navy, by superior team play,
kept the ball in Lehigh's territory most
of the time, and more scoring was pre-
vented by unusually fine defensive
work OF Michelena and Brewer. The
teams we're even in their playing and
dribbling, both giving unusually clever
exhibitions along these lines.
