An enthusiastic and representative
audience greeted the opening of the
Davis Cup tie matches yesterday after
noon at the Chevy Chase Club, between
the Argentine and United States tennis
teams. The Ambassador of Argentina,
Senor Felipe Espil, was on hand to see
his countrymen in the contest with the
American team. He occupied box and
during the intermission received the
members of both teams.
A scorching sun took little interest
from the matches and the true tennis
devotees remained until the last stroke
of the racquets. Several umbrellas
raised in the gallery" were the envy of
many for while there was a cooling
breeze during the afternoon the stands
are without cover, and these with the
large brimmed hats much in evidence
were delightful protection from the
sun.
Holding an impromptu reception
throughout the intermission was Miss
Alice Davis, daughter of Mr.. Dwight D.

A Sermon for Today
What Is your life?"-,James ivI4
BY REV. JOHN r.. GUM.

VAos ~ yOul A4t! -JdIUeS N.l4.
Many today are asking the questk5n.
What Is life?" Modern knowledge en-
phasizes the vastneSs of the universe
and the insignificance Of human beings.
Our knowledge Of the immensities of
the universe has caused many to lose
laltn IN mans worth and destiny Some,
seeing in life no dignity, or high des-
tiny, and feeling themselves to be but
pawnS on the checkerboard of exist
ence, have come to the conclusion that
lie Is a sorrowful failure, and have
surrendered 10 pessimism. Yet, in spite
OF all appearance to the contrary, man
IS the crowning glory Of the universe,
he Is invested with a higher dignity
and grande- destiny than the might
lest planet or star.
1t is only when we dislocate man
from his high place In the cosmos that
life becomes cheap and paltry and
lusterlesS. When we behold life in the
great scheme of things, then. however
insignificant 1t may seem in detach-
ment, 1t becomes enSphered in the In.
finite and pregnant with the power Of
I like the way Joseph Anthony Mil
burn states the case for man and
the significance of his life. He says:
effable dignity. 1t is clothed with
celestial majesty. II Is august with

the duration of the superna1 purpose.

the infinite, every life is a real triumph.
glorious victory. In time. life Is an
incoherence of dull and inconse-
quential fragments. In eternity, it Is
a sublime totality, all its broken efforts,
its trivial moments. its vagrant dreams,
its wandering moods wrought together
in a divine completion, a transcendental
unity of power, wisdom, holiness and
beauty"
In a melancholy mood, Lord Byron
calls life "a little breath. love. wine.
ambition. fame. fighting. devotion. dust
perhaps a name I suppose this is
the best than can be said for life, in
terpreted in animal and earthly terms.
But life has meaning and mission be-
yond its animal and earthly setting; it
has a higher setting IN relation to the
infinite and the eternal, in which 1t
is seen to have an immortal significance
and measureless possibilities. The gall
of life loses its bitterness in this view Of
its glory.

I'VE can have if we go after it," re-

Meaning what?" demanded Mrs
Peter.
Carrots" exclaimed Peter trium-

Mrs. Peter looked hard at Peter.

Everyday Psychology
BY DE- JESSE W. sPRowLs.
Why a Mob7

Civilized men are now and then COM
pletely stumped by their own traits.
Who can give any satisfactory explana-
ton for what Is called mob-behavior?
And why Is mob-behavior usually
violent behavior And why, after a
mob has had its moment" and dis
persed is it rather hard to find any one
who took part in it?
behavior usually use some such word as
"barbarism." They refer to the partici-
pants as ignorant" "uncivihzed." I"
cruel" and so forth. I don't believe
that this is the whole truth. The
fundamentals Of mob psychology are
woven into the best of minds.
1t seems to me that human beings
have always carried on some sort Of
collective thinking. Or rather a COL
lective assent to abandon thinking now
and then. They do this thing auto
matically whenever some of the group
morals or group sentiments have been
disturbed.
Each member Of a group, Civilized"
or not, carries in his mind a certain
set of images which squares exactly
with certain images in every other
mind in the group. These images make
up common denominator for action,
Given a situation in which these images
are insulted. plus some one to suggest
that 1t is time to act. and you have a
mob. The individuals composing the
group lose control Of their conscious
ideals and go about the business OF
satisfying their prejudices.
