THE
EVOLUTION OF SCIENCE
PAGE THREE CON- the field of Tours in sunny France; to us than it wae to Rip Van Win-
or when Caesar slaughtered one million lives in adding the vine-clad hills of Uaul to the Roman Empire; no he is no more horrible now than he was when that great Englishman defeated the Old Guard^ staining the lilies of France with the red blood of the Britishers. That which marks our period is not the fleets of war, not arsenals of cannon, not the building of navies nor the marshalling of armies, nor is it the decrease in the horros of war; but the true index of today is the awakening of conscience to the fact that war is morally wrong. In another movement conscience has been fighting a danger more disatrous to the life of a nation than child labor, more destructive to the Constitutions of men and of republics than the demon war. A plague, a pest, has poisoned not only the Halls of Justice^ the Highways of Commerce, but also has infected the very fountain of life, the home. Into this paradise the demon drink has come. How horrible is the very thought that into such a land as our, into such homes this monster has come. In the words of Cassio^ "Oh that men should put an enemy in their mouths. To steal away'their brains; That we should transform ourselves into beasts." But an emancipator has oome. A century ago there was no public opinion against the "traffic;" today, we find our country freed from the serpent's bonds. It is not that intemperance is any more insidious
When a biologist places upon the slide of his microscope the thin sections which show the developmen of the cell, he has upon that bit of glass the primary wonder of the whole living world. The intellectual world is coming to realize that in this universe are certain definite paths of development, and has seen not only natural organisms^ but also worlds in divers stages of progressive development. The discoveries of Copernicus, Kepler and Newton—all enlarge the significance of human life. They show us distinctly that man's perfection is the goal toward which Nature has been ever tending. The world presents many examples of the evolution of the physical. We need only recall the life story of himhorse, the pigeon, the ox, man himself, to be assured that evolution has brought us a finer type of b( ing. WJB marvel at the difference between the primitive pigment spot and the well developed eye which grew out of it and we are coming in these days to appreciate the broad fact that Life, in the age-long course of its development has gained capacity for higher exercise and richer happiness. Man in his upright position is regarded as the highest form of physical life, and our physioogical ) psychology says that the future perfection of mankind shall not be by development of new hands, eyes, or organs, but by the evolution of conscience. The world presents many examples of the evolution of conscience. The highest civilization oi Greece was but an embryonic stage of what we today call morals. The difference between the fanatical Indian thug who regrets that he has not strangled as many travelers as did his father before him, and the doctor, engineer or good Samaritan, who enters the jaws of death to save his fellow-men; the growth of the moral sense in Cardinal Wolsey, who sums up the mistakes of his selfassertive, avaricious life in these words^ "Cromwell, I charge thee fling away ambition'—such growth from the Thug to the Samaritan, from the Wolsey of youth to the Wolsey of age, shows us a progressive evolution of conscience. It is possible to trace the rise of conscience from primitive to modern man, from the first crude scruple to the highest soul sense; but instead, let us consider three world movements where conscience plays a part. One of these movements began in 1802, when Sir Robert Peel awoke conscious to the fact that it was wrong to imprison children in shops and factories. The movement has grown and ; nearly gained its end. Yet who in * ancient Rome could have imagined ! the possibility of such action? Could Nero have considered the heart of a child, while the Christians were burning in his gardens? No? but conscience has evolved! The bitter cry of children has been barkened to, and because a child is a child, we are reading t h e eighteenth chapter of Luke with better understanding. And If some one should ask you what is typical of our world today, you should reply, "It is not that child labor is any ^-worse, but that which marics our period is the awakeninig of concience to the fact that it is morally wrong.'* i These last few yeans have seen conscience battling in another movement for the ideals of universal peace and brotherhood. How Alexander, Ptolemy^ Caesar, Napoleon, would have laughed at the prospect! But their laugh would sound hollow now. Long indeed have men failed to see that they were brothers; that color, race, speech, were not distinctions in a ; universe of souls. In spite of our • Great World War, that God of DeI ^rutcion is.no more horrible now * than he UA was when Charles Martel battled with the Moorish hordes on
kle^ who "wouldn't count this time," but that which marks our period is the awakening of conscience to the awfulness of such an ignoble condition. We recognize that conscience haa laid open for us the wrongis of child labor, war, and intemperance, but we are failing in some measure so to interpret the wrongs of our national life. There are critica today, like Jonah of ol, who went up and down the streets of Ninevah prophesying, "Yet forty days and Ninevah shall be destroyed." Forty dayd passed^ and Ninevah stood. Today there are many who are heralding the utter degeneration of the American people. In proof they cite the appaling instances of dishonesty, rapine, and fraud; lawlessness of men and corporations; the use of office for private ends; the mad scramble for wealth, and above all WAR! To these and many more they point as evidence of the utter degeneration of the times. The indictment is a terrible one. Can We say that the dial of human progress has not been going back? To this spirit we can reply, that from the lowest, evolution has gone upward and onward; that the moral contest of man has been not only between the bad and the good, but progressive evolution also makes that choice between the good and the better. But in the final analysis the most scientific evolutionary theory can be only a description of the process by which God has worked^ and conscience and love only the results of the method he has uaed.

Dr. Nykerk is next, you bet. He's dead against the cigarette. A runner in his day, at that,— He made the hundred, in three hours flat. In chapel when he sings a song, He makes you wish that you were gone. Dr. Godfrey teaches Chemistry. And full many a spineless slave has he. His scholarships, alas, alack. Go to those the other Profs, send back. He bellows forth full and many a morn. With a voice that sounds like yon fog horn.

As for Prof. Hinkamp, He's a bear. And around that campus he does tear. He spoofs # his classes all day long. For life, to him is but a song. Dr. Patterson teaches" all about the man. And journeys nightly to the Strand. And there he sits among the boys. And gee, he makes >a lot of noise. Prof. Lampen sells New York Life. To help support his good wife. These are but a few of our wellbeloved Profs. And the rest are just as good by Gosh. "Loves Labors Lost" says Bakker, as Heemstra cops the Raven.

Some time ago, they were saying that Hope's strings of defeats were due to the fact that some of our people lacked nerve, or brass, that we allowed others to gipp us blindly. I see that th» reverse is true now. For last week the Horrible Iowa quartette nasal virabratto specialists, had the baldfaced nerve to sing at Coopersville. How the peasantry must have suffered. After the lyrical yelling led by Dr. Nykerk, to assure us that we were not down-hearted, I remembered with infiinite sorrow the days when there was real pep at Hope College. One can scarcely forget the praise bestowed upo-n the Freshman class for their scholarship, by Dr. Dimnent. Yet when I glance at the report list, I see with apprehension, term averages such as 17, 42, 21, 5, 8 and 1. And I spake with infinite sorry saying, Oh Denmark, Denmark, there is something petrifying within thy borders. Princeton is about to try out a psydhology test /on (applicants for entrance for the purpose of comparing their vjalue with the present system of academic entrance examaminations. Professor C. C. Brigham of the University's Department of Psychology thinks that this test will prove superior in every way and will eventually replace the present method of determining an applicant's fitness for admission. 32,420 students are reported by Columbia University for this year, while the University of California lists 42,300, and the University of Wisconsin enrolls 20,000. The majority of these are non-resddent and extension students.
