STUDENTS ADDRESSED BY DIR. PLATO DURHAM

pr. Plate Durham of Emory Uni versity delivered the first of his series of evangelistical addresses to the students of Birmingham Southern College Monday In chapel. Dr. Dur ham will conduct series of lectures which will run throughout the week. This series will be the annual re- vival services held by the college. pr. Durham is one of the leading figures in the Southern Methodist church and is graduate of Trinity College and has also studied at Yale and Oxford. He is head of the de- partment of theology at Emory.
 q have heard it said,' said Dr. Durham, that the college man is the most difficult to reach. but l say that he is the easiest. He has an open heart for conviction and is not trammelled by traditions or convic- tions. For this reason I choose to speak to the college man. l have not come here to remind you of the dangers of hell nor the promises or heaven, but to ask you what are you going to do about it. l want to know what BirminghamS Southern College as a community will do, whether it will stand aside and let the stream of life flow by or reserve a place in the muster of youth and take a hand in the fight"
