DREAMS REVEAL
CHARACTER,
HE SAYS
)r. Thomas v. Moore Discusses
Psychologist Interpretation
at K. of c. School.

Dreams are among the most &C.
curate indexes to a persons char.
acter and secret thoughts.
This is the contention of DR..
Thomas V. Moore, professor of
psychology of Catholic University,
who addressed the knights of Co
lumbus evening school last night,
at Carroll Hall.
Dreams, said DR.. Moore, ARE
the manifestations of our inner.
most desires and fears, and they
may be easily explained, and, in
many instances, accurately inter
preted.''
To interpret dreams, DIR. Moore
said, one should forget. the sooth-
sayers and fortune tellers, most of
whom are ignorant and totally un-
scientific. BY learning of the daily
associations of the dreamer, he con-
tinued, an average student Of dream
psychology can often learn the in
ner thoughts and desires Of another
individual who will truthfully re-
late his dreams.

Can We Love God with Our Mind % is the subject of the sermon to be delivered by Rev. Burdette Lands downe at St. Peters Cuhrch, Sunday at the service beginning at twelve o'clock noon
 Modern science has given usa mass of new knowledge. Can this be re- lated to the old faith? It is said that many educated people are looking for their religion outside the churches be- cause of the negative attitude taken by some church leaders.
 Should it be necessary for people trying to live Christ-like lives to be driven out of the churches because they desire an honest religion, one that they can accept with their mind as well as with their heart and soul?
