Dr. Matthews Succeeds

"I hope the students will realize
that this is very liberal appropria-
tion," said DR.. Matthews in assembly
Monday when speaking of the recent
appropriations made by the State Of
Arizona for the Teachers College,
Tempe. owe are greatly indebted to
membres of the Legislature for their
consideration. The State is taxing
itself so that you young people may
obtain an education as free as pos
sible. The total appropriation lacks
a thousand dollars of being half
million, the building budget is the
largest we have ever had," added DR..
Matthews. Provisions have been made
for three new buildings. Of course
the changes may not come at once,
as the new training school is not to
be built until the second year. How
ever, the mems dormitory, Alpha
Hall, will have new addition and be
completed and ready for occupancy
by the first of September. A liberal
amount has also been allowed with
which to maintain the dormitories
for the next two years. The legis-
lature appropriated $4,000 for sala-
ries to provide the best instruction
available.
The student body is grateful to the
state, and wishes to thank DR.. Mat
thews for his efforts in securing this
generous appropriation for the next
two years.

DR.. Davis Is Guest

DR.. Davis, former professor at
Harvard University, was the honor
guest of the society, Saturday night,
at banquet given at Ingleside Inn.
The banquet was great success,
forty-one society members attending.
DR.. Davis urged that in teaching geo
graphy, orientation of place should
be stressed, and that it was more
preferable for a person to know well
a few land type regions, than to
memorize lot of dull facts.

Traces Development
Development Of aviation from the
crude and slow machine of the
Wright brothers in 1903 to the
present swift machines was traced
step by step by the speaker. The
sped of the original machine flown
by the Wright brothers was 20
miles an hour Major Worley said.
He then called attention to the
recent speed record of 278 miles
an hour for sustained flight.
Major Worley devoted consider
able time to explanation of the de-
velopment of commercial aviation
in the United States by the Gov
ernment and it's agents for mail
carrying purposes. The first air
mail route was established in 1919,
he said. There are now air mail
lines across the ointment and some
shorter ones between various les
and sections.
Paying Lines
Some of the air mail line; are
self-supporting, Major Worley said.
Others are operated at deficit
because they are important links
in the air mail chain. Some pas
senger lines also are paying, Major
Worley said. He cited various
lines running out of Los Engeles
as examples of paying aviation ac-
tivities. Planes were recently pur-
chased for air mail and passenger
lines in Alaska.

trusted implicitly in eternal power OF
truth for His vindication and died the
death usually melted out to criminals
without retreating once from His
mighty idealism. He threw his life's
best out into the broad stream of time
confident that it would sometime
reach a shore upon which it would
flower and live forever.
So deep was the impression He
made upon humanity, and so nearly
did he meet every expectation of the
race, that men ever since have in
sisted that He must have been God
Nineteen hundred years afterward
His ideals and convictions have taken
such a hold on mems thinking that
His concepts of life and His way OF
living have been accepted throughout
the world as the safest and most salts
factory we have ever known.
If the Christian Church would be-
come irresistible, let her preach the
religion of Jesus, allowing men to
think as they will about Jesus. He
Himself, promised to convince the
world of His divinity if His followers
would only lift Him up where men
could see Him.
Suppose, then, that every Christian
pulpit in the world should give itself
over for one year to preaching that
kindness, charity, forgiveness, toll
erance, unselfishness and faith in
truth that Jesus taught. Suppose
for instance, that instead of sermons
on the virgin birth, the harmony be-
tween science and religion or the in
fallibility of the Bible the people
should be instructed for one year on
the doctrine of brotherhood applied
without restrictions of color or creed
on the duty of bearing one another's
burden, on loyalty to conscience at
any price, and on fearlessness in the
presence of those who are only able
to destroy the body. Suppose we gave
ourselves for one year to settling
quarrels instead of starting them, to
making peace instead of setting up
divisive doctrines, to building up
goodwill and breaking down hatreds.
A religious revival would follow such
a years preaching no equal of which
America has ever known.
Atheism can offer arguments to
meet every logical defense we can

Roman government nineteen hundred
years ago. Miracles do not prove the
claim of Jesus divinity, but Jesus
remarkable life makes miracles seem
credible. Just as men were not sur
prised at anything that happened
when Charles P Steinmetz stepped
into his laboratory so men need not
be surprised at anything that happened
when such a character as Jesus arose
among the sons of earth.
The most convincing and irresist-
ible message of the Christian Church
is not some theological theory about
Jesus, nor some metaphysical con-
clusion supported by the findings of
the scientific laboratory, but a plain
and truthful recital of the story OF
Jesus life and an adequate portrayal
of His real character.
Deep in the hearts of all men, re-
CARELESS of race or color, is an as
piration toward Brightness. Humanity
has certain relentless spiritual ambi-
tions. Alongside the theory of the
struggle for existence" men have a
conviction that life is worth strugg-
ling for. Moreover they believe that
some causes are so worthwhile that
man is justified in actually giving
his life for their preservation. Beside
the notion of the survival of the
fittest" they have an ambition to be-
come fit. Of course opinions vary as
to what constitutes fitness but that the
human soul is eternally doomed to un-
fitness is an intolerable belief.
Cynicism scornfully asserts that
these spiritual ambitions are not
worth while-that they are a CHASTITY
joke visited upon a hopeless humanity
by some unknown and unknowable
force or creator. Therefore material
ism says, Eat, drink and be merry il
you can, for tomorrow you will GER
tainly die. Get all the thrills and
pleasure out of life you can for it is
all a brutal jest and the only way to
win is to snatch some scrap of pleas
ure or sensation that comes your
way"
The character of Jesus, on the
other hand, is convincing evidence
that the highest aspirations of the
human soul are entirely justified am
billions. His life is conclusive evil
dence that goodness, Brightness, kind
ness, moral stamina, charity and
brotherhood are not chimerical
dreams but that they correspond to
reality in the nature of the uni
verse as the eye responds to light or
the ear to sounds.
Jesus came into the world, lived
unselfishly, accepted the most brutal
treatment the world could invent,
turned the other cheek, went about
doing good, forgave his enemies, lived
not on things but upon convictions,
put His conscience above convenience,

What is the most worthwhile
thing in life?"
Where is the cause worth dying
for?"
Where can we find a pattern for
life that is trustworthy"
Does anyone know, or can anyone
tell, why we are here?"
In the face of this spiritual hunger
the Church has been dissipating her
strength in an effort to save herself,
forgetting the warning of her Master,
"He that saveth his life shall lose it"
Gigantic financial drives have been
inaugurated to replenish her treas
uries and support charities and
benevolences. Pastors have become
publicans and tax-gatherers instead
of spiritual experts. Preachers have
become business men and not pro-
phets, with no time for the cultiva-
ton of the spiritual life of the people.
The new findings of science have
required an intellectual adjustment
as a result of which controversies
have been waged over doctrines with
bitterness and acrimony. Religion,
in the mind of the plain man on the
street, has been reduced by the
churches to a system of intellectual
beliefs in which he has no particular
interest. A religion about Jesus has
been built up which has almost OBJ
secured the religion of Jesus.
SC, fhof nf Tho
people have turned to sects and cults
for their spiritual help, or to psyche
logical halls where they have been
fed up on glands. inhibitions, psy-
cho-reactions and completes, but the
very popularity of such teachers is
convincing evidence of the fact that
the people are still "incurably re-
ligious."
Just as a vast amount of charitable
work is done by groups and individu-
ais outside the Associated Charities
so there is vast amount of religious
interest and idealism outside the
churches. The number of persons
outside the churches who believe in
and practise prayer is probably as
large as of those inside the churches
who pray. Newspapers carry daily
features which deal with spiritual
problems and managing editors say
that they are the most widely and
carefully read of all their material.
The most discussed articles in the
popular magazines are those dealing
with spiritual themes and no speaker
is more acceptable at Mr.. Rabbits
lunch club than one who can discuss
the deep spiritual instincts of the hu-
man soul in non-technical and insect
arian terms. Every Pullman car has
its religious discussion we'll under
way almost before the train has left
the sheds.
The fault is not with the people.
They are interested in religion. The
failure has been largely with the
church which has become engrossed
in many good things but has neg
lected that essential thing without
which the spiritual life of the people
will collapse.
The fundamental message of the
Christian Church is the character
and life of her founder. Jesus OF
Nazareth, Himself is the greatest
miracle of history The feeding of
five thousand or the healing of a blind
man is not to be compared to the
miracle of a life like Jesus coming to
it's fruitage of character under the
