The Communist thought is strong
but not in the lead. This offers q
land of promise, its strength is based
on misery and it aims to pull down
the present unsatisfactory setup and
install an entirely new one.
The Christian philosophy is full
Of strength and enthusiasm and is

Born of Despair.
Existentialism, the newest philos-
ophy which began its rage under the
tutorship of Jean Paul Sartre, has
many followers but has not moved
it's audience deeply. It was born OF
the despair of the war.
Basically, existentialism as ex-
planned by Prof. Berger, goes some
thing like this:
Man is free to choose his own way.
The world is absurd. God, who
could give meaning to the world
does not exist. The world has no
meaning in itself. Man is giving
meaning to the world. Man is moth
ing but what he makes Of himself.
Man is absolute freedom.

Two years ago Prof. Berger was
in this country on a similar lecture
tour. At that time he found the
United States still In the fever OF
war, much different from NOW. But
never has he seen it so active, so
prosperous, he said.
After a tour of most Of the States,

the postman is the only one that will
take them away is something in
which the European would not in

posed any further tax raise. Instead
it urged the Congress to provide a

Fingerprinting of drivers and re-
examination every six years were
opposed by the citizens.
1t was urged that all vacancies in

ume is an important literary ach-
ievement.

a Waiter, Laborer, Janitor, and
Messenger. Somewhere along the
years, he seems to have reached
a certain stability of age because,
to the people who see him every
day, there are no appresiable signs
of advanced years. Dan is one of
those personalities who possesses
the baility to tatain real enjoy

position.
With the exception of a period
of service between 1908 and 1916,
during which time he worked as
Messenger for Captain Arthur Hid

Dan states that he plans to OPP

Dan will be missed after his re-
