HOPE PLACES IN NATIONAL CONTEST INDIANA MAN WINS, MINNESOTA SECOND. Interstate Oratorical Association Oldest in America.
Hope Delegation Largest In the national oratorical contest at Northwestern University last Friday evenifig, Simon Heemstra, Hope's orator and representative for the state of Michigan, received third in ranking,- second on percentages, and first in delivery and stage presence. Raymond M. Gallagher of Notre Dame University, Indiana, ranked first, and Harold Johnsrud of Carleton College, Minnesota, was placed second. Gallagher spoke on "A Century of Isolation," and Johnsrud on "The Liberal College in America." Our orator's address was on "The Challenge of the Ideal." By calculating the percentages of the seven judges "Si" won a close second. Gallagher's average was 91.7%, Heemstra'sdl.1% and Johnsrud's 90.0%. These figures indicate the close race, and while Hope's representative lost by one point in ranking a tie for first place, he was conceded to be the best speaker. The fact is that every judge considered "Si's" delivery was outstanding and most persuasive. His stage presence was excellent and every expression and gesture helped convey his message. When he came to his climax, he was very touching and direct, appealing to every hearer as man to man. The contest was the best for many years. Six contestants participated and Heemstra was third speaker of the evening. These contestants remained from the 94 colleges and universities at first in the race. The Interstate Oratorical Association is fifty-two years old, and is the oldest and strongest oratory organization in America. Such notables as W. J. Bryan, Beveridge, and La Fallolet have ranked in its contests. A record was kept at one time of the men who ranked during a period of seventeen years, and of these there are today 18 registered in "Who's Who in America." Several are also college and university presidents and deans of law schools. This means that Hope's orator has won not only distinction and honor, bat that he is on .jbhe road many of our celebrated leaders once trod. Succeeding again in the national contest in such a commendable way, "Si" completed his eleventh winning contest. As is already known, he participated in state contests while a high school student, and when he came to Hope he again started out to achieve higher honors. Five victories were awarded to him in the eleven contests he entered; twice he ranked second, and four times third. While in high school he won a scholarship in oratory, but declined it to go to Hope. By ranking in the national fray, Heemstra became eligiHe for Delta Sigma Rho membership. This fraternity is the largest and highest forensic society in America, and only people of high elocutionary standing are considered for membership. "Si" also holds the highest distinction in the Pi Kappa Delta fraternity, a chapter of which exists at Hope. The most remarkable feature of the contest was Hope's large delegation there. Having a large banner unfurled over and above all other pennants, the Hope studentry and alumni, Some 40 in number, filled the meeting with "pep" and "gin" from (OontbuMd on Faflt i)

COURTESY WEEK Have you ever noticed that in some localities they observe almost four different kinds of weeks in a month? There is Clean-up Week, Pay-yourdebt Week, Music Week and so on ad infinitum. How about a Courtesy Week at Hope? That Hope is criticized f o r lack of culture and refinement is common knowledge. How about it, students? Do we go scot-free? Not t h a t we do not treasure the precious heritage we lay claim to in the sturdy manhood and sterling worth of our graduates. Visit another school and you'll be sure to hear this on the way home, "—College may have advantages and equipment, but give me the Hope fellows and the Hope girls." We do not wish to put false emphasis on a matter of secondary importance. But— A great man is great in spite of his eccentricities, not because of them. Only the other morning our president emphasized the importance of the compound, courtesy and culture. The men and women of influence in the next few decades will be those who can mingle at ease with any group. Modern life demands conformity to set standards. Of course the highest culture is not a veneer, but the expression of the fine spirit within. We feel that we have taken a forward step when we make our annual reception a formal affair. But it is the little everyday acts of thotfulness and courtesy that your fellow-students most appreciate. No need to go into detail —we all make our mistakes, and feel there is room f o r improvement. And don't think that you'll find everything in your etiquette book! Take time f o r all the little social amenities of life. It will enrich your own life, and t h a t of others. Courtesy Week? -No, let's make it Courtesy Campus!—Z. T H E LOST ART We have just finished reading one of the works of Victor Hugo and have been much impressed by the substance and Style. Line a f te r line of profound utterances flow effortlessly from his majestic pen. His thots reach out with assurance and precision into the maze of world history and select perfect illustrations, striking similes of dezens of examples of the truth he wishes to express. From a seemingly great store of knowledge he collects evidence, associates kindred material, sets in a r r a y contending facts. We are startled, amazed, astounded by his world acquaintance with life, the f a r horizon of his knowledge. It has been suggested that writing is a lost art. We decline to believe it. Still, the number of the elect that belong to t h e - t r u l y great as writers are few. The reason may be that we lack a knowledge of rhetoric and grammar, but we think not. More probably it is lack of brackground; want of t h a t broad knowledge of world life without which we cannot judge the importance or the potentialities of sutfft things as filled Hugo with awe, and inspired him t e writ?
Y. W. C. A. Girls! Were you at Y. W. Thursday afternoon? If you were not, you surely missed some of the best talks of the year. One reason why it was so interesting, especially to the newer girls, was because it solved a great problem for us. We have often heard some of the seniors speak of the Geneva Conference and: we have wondered what it was all about. Helen Moser who took charge of the meeting said that a f t e r she had returned from Geneva, she had often been accosted with such questions as: What is the object of the Conference? Did you have a good time? Did it pay to go there? What was it like? In answering these questions, Helen told us that the real object of the conference was to bring the women students closer together, to make them better women and to teach them real Christianity. She described one day at the conference, f r o m sunrise to sunset. She told us of the good times they had playing baseball, swimming, having supper parties, in addition to the grand talks they heard each morning and evening and the wonderful inspiration they received. Francis Mills told us about the evening speaker, Dr. Sayer, and one of his speeches about the importance of "Practical Christianity" in every day life. There should be more friendly relationship between the different nations and races. "Midge" De Young told us of the bigness of Y. W. When we meet each Thursday we do not realize that there are 92,000 students in America alone belonging to Y. W. "Midge" also told us of one of the wonderful speeches of Dr. Russell, the speaker of the morning meeting. The topic of this speech was, "Salvation Through Personality." In addition to these wonderful talks, we enjoyed a fine piano solo by Bernice Wright,—"To Spring" by Grieg. This seemed especially appropriate because of the beautiful spring weather. ASSOCIATION UNION HOLDS FIRST MEETING Instead of having their separate Cabinet meetings last week the Y. W. joined hands with the Y. M. for the first Association meeting. Both Cabinets are now organized and in running order. With a big year before them the officers feel the need and the stimulation of co-operation. Jack Prins, President of the Union Committee of Direction, took the chair, and Ruth Miller, Vice-president ex-officio, led devotions. Several matters were discussed and plans laid. This spring the Y. W. will have representatives on the Gospel Team. Both Associations will contribute to a Near East Student Relief call for old clothes. Dr. White's appeal on the morning of that day had crystallized sentiment in favor of awakened interest in Bible Study, and the need of a full-time man and College pastor. Definite action was taken on the matter. We are hopeing for many more such meetings. Our aims and methods are much the same, so t h a t we can very profitably work together.
Y. M. C. A. "Is the Y. Man a Shirker" wa^ the topic for the Y. M. C. A. meeting last Tuesday evening. Frank Huff was the leader and he very ably sfeowed DERFECl rtERPECl PERFECT that although we have one of the best I IC'l URKS 1 OL1CY r RICE > 'iY's" in the country, yet in many respects we are shirkers.

\{ow E l e c t r i c a l Engineering began T IS not enough to experiment and to observe in scientific research. There must also be interpretation. Take the cases of Galvani and Volta. Oneday in 1786 Galvani touched with his metal instruments the nerves of a frog's amputated hind legs. The legs twitched in a very life-like way. Even when the frog's legs were hung from an iron railing by copper hooks, the phenomenon persisted. Galvani knew that he was dealing with electricity but concluded that the frog's legs had in some way gencrated the current. Then came Volta, a contemporary, who said in effect: "Your interpretation is wrong. Two different metals in contact with a moist nerve set up currents of electricity. I will prove it without the aid of frog's legs." Volta piled disks of different metals one on top of another and
separated the disks with moist pieces of cloth. Thus he gene-» rated a steady current. This was the " Voltaic pile"—the first bat* tery, t h e first g e n e r a t o r of • electricity. Both Galvani and Volta were careful experimenters, but Volta's correct interpretation of effects gave us electrical engineering. Napoleon was the outstanding figure in the days of Galvani and Volta. He too possessed an active interest in science but only as an aid toNapoleon.He little Hhagined on examiningVoIta's crude battery that its effect on later civilization would be fully as profound as that of his own dynamic personality. The effects of the work of GaK vani and Volta may be traced . through a hundred years of electrical development even to the latest discoveries maae in the Research Laboratories of the Geiv> eral Electric Company.

"SUMMUM BONUM" When we meditate on what the "Highest Good" can be, there instantly passes thru our minds a recollection of the experiences of past years, of both our own life and t h a t of our neighbors; and immediately we see that we cannot put it in one word or even a single statement, f o r t h a t would be doing injustice to so high an ideal in our lives. In order to come to any conclusion of what the "Highest Good" possibly may be, we have to take a retrospect of those experienees: That i^, we i must try to recall those incidents and experiences such as, when we obeyed the voice of conscience and were rewarded; see where a friend or enemy had come influence f o r good or bad, or caused us to come to some conclusion, and make a vital decision in our lives; when we had accomplished some task or endeavored in some good work, be it great or small, even to a cup of fresh water to an enemy or a wayside neighbor. We must see from which works and accomplishments, when finished, we had a real feeling of satisfaction in our hearts or from which the effect has only caused a deeper shade to that dark shadow of selfishness and jealousy in our lives. We must combine all those works which, we have decided, have helped our neighbors and rewarded us, leaving out earthly gain, but counting the factors which have produced growth and development in our character, personality and spiritual life. We are not our own, but His in whose image we are created, and since this is true it is our duty to obey Him, and since He is the greatest personality, then the "Highest Good" must be to do His will. Things that give us lasting satisfaction, which must ibe felt in the heart and not intellectually, culmin- 4 are to that great aim, the "Highest Good." The reason we must feel satisfaction in the heart is, because it is the seat of our personality, our body is but a temple or dwelling place for our personality, it has its stages, f r o m youth to old age and then must perish, while our personality lives on. Thus satisfaction which is felt in the heart is lasting, and nothing can give greater lasting satisfaction than to do his will. Peter De Ruiter, '25.
