For thefirst time he attempts to question theultimate effect of the period of train¬ing upon his goal in life, upon hisideal self, upon his career. Despitea local veneer of activity new con¬cerns have emanated and pierced hissupposedly impervious life. Then be¬gins new feeling about, a new grop¬ing in the dark as the old supportsand props are torn away. The processof reorientation results in a firm en¬trenchment in a purposive life, anacceptance of the educational periodas a preparation, a means, a tool, a.road to the more complete and last¬ing life, the chisel wherewith tocarve one’s niche in the vast andfurious materialistic world.The result, naturally, is that ev¬ery activity, every study, every con¬tact is accepted for its effect in en¬hancing a reapproachment with thatgoal; and any other utility or plea¬sure MATHEWS OPENSSUMMER TERMCHAPEL^ERVICESIndicates Channels forIdealistic Action,In Sermon“To make prosperity safe for de¬mocracy, to find a moral equivalentfor war, to serve humanity by tak¬ing Jesus’ altruism seriously—theseare some of the ‘causes’ to which themodern man can adhere wholeheart¬edly,’ said Dr. Shailer Mathews, deanof the University divinity school, lastSunday in opening services at thenew chapel for the summer.Still Chance* for Idealism“We live in a time when, to manyno ‘causes’ exjst,’’ continued Dr.Mathews. “Woman suffrage we have.Labor, whose unpaid due once wasjustice, to be given if not voluntar¬ily, then through coercion, seems tobe taking care of itself effectivelynow. But we still do have oppor¬tunities for idealism, for noble giv¬ing. And if we do not take Jesus’altruism seriously, we may as wellpass his teaching over into the sec-which those phases of college ' where doctors’ theses are kept.life embody are disregarded orshunted into the realm of inconse¬quences. He means business; col¬lege is work and a vital linK in theapproach to security.* * *It is so great a temptation to ranton about this type of student—theone who continues, even after hiscollegiate incubation is completed,to look ever ahead to the lure ofcomplete security, who merelytouches upon the present then passesto a vicious stream of consequen¬tial speculation. He never lives inthe present, in the life about him, inhis work, nor in his people. Life tohim means a continual preparationfor something about which he canonly divine. Most of us are of thistype; and as the writer begs no im¬munity he levels no specific pan¬acea for it; that is the nature ofsuch a personality.« « «At school, however, one recognizesmore and more as he nears the endof his period of education how self-frustrating was his code of action,how many of the intrinsic pleasureshe passed by because they were in¬consistent with or irrelevant to hisultimate goal in life. How the base¬ball game was passed up becausethere w’as an assigfnment two weeksahead which might be prepared, howthe entire series of public lectureswas neglected because they simplydid not seem necessary to a studentof biology, how opportunities to iden¬tify oneself with student activitieswere passed up because they werenot of great enough material value.All of which brings us to the in¬evitable conclusion, too late ofcourse to do any good, that we haveleft behind us the most plastic periodof our life, the most absorbent andimpressionable years when, insteadof wondering what would be the re¬sult of specific incidents in thatperiod upon our life five or ten yearshence, we should have used that timeto fend ourselves off completely from !the cares and tribulations of thatsame materialistic world with which,by coming to college, we have con¬fessed ourselves unfitted to cope. Toblind ourselves to superimpose idealsand rituals and allow the buddingego to develop within itself an in¬tegrate system of values, to snatchat each inarticfulate fragment ofpleasure, in each inconsequentialcontact in every phase of student ac¬tivity. This would be probably themost propitious means of attainingthe material goals as well would webut realize it. But it is not human'lature to adopt this realistic ac¬ceptance of life. Man is a simpleauul who wants to simplify the(Continued on page 3) Period of DebunkingThe present period is one of “de¬bunking,’ Dr. Mathews said. Manybiographers are attempting to whit¬tle down the stature of greatness totheir own littleness, and to reducethe prophet or statesman to thecommonplace. But man is not “aperipatetic chemical laboratory driv¬en by the sex instinct,’’ Dr. Mathewsdeclared, and man “cannot be un¬derstood solely through his origin.’’Religion as a “refuge from the ex¬ternal present,’’ enlightened by tol¬erance, simplification, and research,is the spiritual goal of the modemuniversity, according to David H.Stevens, assistant to the president,who spoke in the Friday noon serv¬ices. SCENE OF SUMMER SERVICES BREASTED RECEIVESROSENBERG MEDAL;DEGREE FOR GILKEYDr. James Henry Breasted, direc¬tor of the Oriental Institute, and anoted historian, was awarded theRosenberg medal last Friday in rec¬ognition of achievements of greatbenefit to humanity. Acting-Presi-ent Frederic C. Woodward made thepresentation. Dr. Breasted was alsohonored with the degree of doctorof letters at Princeton university lastweek.As “an exemplar of his ownpreaching,’’ Dr. Charles W.

Bak¬er, economic geographer of the Bu¬reau of Agricultural Economics,Washington, D. C., told the Instituteof the Harris Foundation of theUniversity last Thursday.Not only has there been a surplusof farm products for the past eightyears, but the American farmercould double or treble his produc¬tion if farm products rose greatly,or the cost of things he buys declines.With inventions, discoveiTes, educa¬tion, and improvements in economicorganization tending to increase pro¬duction ,the problem of surplus pro¬duction will continue to demand sol-tion.Consumption of Animal ProductsOnly two solutions are in sight,according to Mr. Baker. One is toinduce the American people to eatless vegetable food, and to eat moreanimal products, which require great¬er acreage to produce. The other isincreased exportation, which will notbe possible until the nations of Eu-CURRENT OF MODERNART TOWARD DESIGN,SAYS N. Y. LECTUREREmphasis on design is the presenttendency in art, according toCharles J. Martin, who gave an il¬lustrated lecture Friday in HarperMil. Mr. Martin, who is AssociateProfessor of Fine Arts at Teacherscollege, Columbia University, deliv¬ered one of the first of the seriesof summer public lectures, speakingon “Some Tendencies in RecentPainting.’’Mr. Martin explained that thereare two main schools of art. one plac¬ing emphasis on realism, the otheron design. The present time marksthe climax of the realist school,which originated in the thirteenthcentury and according to which theartist should strive to pass on animpression he himself has received.During the nineteenth century, anew school of thought arose, led byCezanne, the French artist. Themain emphasis was now placed on(Continued on page yi)\\ which to buy American farm prod¬ucts.“During the past decade agricul¬tural production in the United Stateshas increased over 20 per cent, whilefarm prouction has decreased over10 per cent, production per personon farms therefore increasing aboutone-third,’’ Mr. Baker said. “If NorthAmerica should double its produc¬tion, as is probable, while populationincreased only 50 per cent and percapita consumption remained as atpresent, there would be available forexport to Europe and Asia about one-third as great a quantity of agricul¬tural products as is now producedin bot those continents.Return to Cotton“The tractor alone has releasedtwenty million acres of and former¬ly required to feed horses and mules,but which now support meat andmilk animals,’’ the Washington econ¬omist said. “Gasoline has been sub¬mitted for feed in the north.

The result has With both Europe and SouthAmerica represented in the attend¬ance, which amounted to more thanone hundred, the summer social sea¬son at the University was formallyopened by a reception for all incom¬ing students held Friday night ati8 in Ida Noyes hall.Among the patronesses were Mrs.Edith Foster Flint, chairman of theWomen’s University council, andMiss Elsa Chapin, head of Fosterhall, the University aides and mar¬shals were also present to welcomethe newcomers.All of those present at the recep¬tion were ‘tagged’’ with small whiteslips bearing their names and statesin order to facilitate acquaintance.During the early part of the even¬ing the students registered in groupsaccording to states for the forthcom¬ing social functions of the season.Dunes Vanish fromCampus July 15 The story of the changing civiliza¬tion of the United States is told inthe statistics of occupation .since1850, which! reflects an altered fam¬ily life, the grreat growth of manu¬facturing, and the decline of agri¬culture, accorded to a study by W.F. Ogburn, professor ot sociologyat the University, and his assistant,Clark Tibbits.The study has just been publishedby the University Press, as part ofa book, “Social Changes in 1928,’’in which twenty-one authorities havemeasure and analyzed the changesthat are occuring In the social lifeof the nation.Decline of Agriculture‘•We see the decline of agriculture,the great growth of the middle man,the decline of the lower grades ofpersonal and domestic service, therise of the higher paid services suchas those of the professions, and th«increase in governmental employees.There is no slackening in our grow¬ing use of machines. Our budgetsare including more and more expen¬sive items. With the new inven¬tions we are acquiring new habitsand losing old ones,’’ Prof. Ogburnsays.Flow From FarmsThe rapid flow of man power awayfrom the farms is shown by a com¬parison of the statistics of 1880,when about half of the employed pop¬ulation was engaged in agriculture,plus lumbering and fishing, with thoseof 1920, when only 27.2 per centwere claimed by those occupations.“The great wealth in the UnitedStates finds expression in more ex-penksive standards jof living,’’ theanalysis says. “Our pioneer fatherswere scarcely familiar with suchthings as dentists, bathrooms, refrig¬erators, and newspapers. Today we■ feel that they are necessities.In the twenty year period between1900 and 1920, the population in¬creased 39 per cent and the urbanpopulation 49 per cent, yet the num¬ber of waiters increased 113 percent, and during the latter part ofWith the completion of the newsteam tunnel by July 15, as an¬nounced by the University bureau ofof construction yesterday, the sanddunes which have given the campus | the period the number^of restaurantits weird lunar landscape will das- j keepers increased 158 per cent.

Bastian Editorial Assistant)Jerome B. Strauss Editorial AssistantRobert McCarthy Business AssistantJames J. McMahon Business Assistant)ADVENTURESOME EDUCATIONThis is the age of great experiment. Particularly is, this truein the field of education. Wisconsin has its experimental schoolunder the direction of Dr. Meiklejohn to test the new concepts ofan embryonic psychology. Harvard has instituted the reading pe¬riod plan with a view of affording students an opportunity for in¬dividual organization of their curricular materials. And the Uni¬versity of Chicago, following the plan established by former Presi¬dent Max Mason, has sought to extend the principles of graduate re¬search into the senior colleges of the undergraduate school by in¬stituting honors courses for chosen students.These are but a few of th'e many education ventures which arebeing executed by the American institutions of higher learning.It is yet too early to determine just which methods best stimulateand aid mental processes, and hence deserve a place in the perm¬anent program of education. Certain it is that from the welter of ex¬periment will emerge some valuable concepts. Meanwhile it is ap¬parent that the present generation, which serves as a guinea pig tothe professors, is sacrificing a kind of educational solidity. This isan unfortunate but inevitable sacrifice to progress.If, however, this widespread experimentation, which is beingcarried on at a great cost to student and institution, is ever to re¬sult in anything constructive, there is a common corollary to alltheories which cannot be negleted. And this corollary, as it hasbeen defined by outstanding educators, concerns itself with themaintenance of a high standard of teaching. It is excellent to pre¬sume that the function of education will best be realized when op¬portunity rather than compulsion becomes the motivating spirit ofendeavor, but it is wiser to remember that sympathetic and inspiringinstruction is needed to create and designate those opportunities.There has been much discussion as to whether or not tha stand¬ard of instruction in American colleges has decreased of recentyears. That ogre of the classroom, the Victorian pedant who dronedaway endlessly from his written lectures, has been relegated tothe shades of the “has-beens,” but his shoes have been filled by oneequally tyrannical—the indifferent, impersonal professor whosescholarly nostrils are so accustomed to the rarefied air of researchthat he finds the common atmosphere of the classroom stifling andboring. It is unfair both that students should be made to sufferunder such insincere instruction and that such souls as are addictedto scholarly pursuits should be forced into teaching.The fields of research and instruction must necessarily be di¬vorced for their mutual welfare and for the maintenance of a highstandard of conscientious, personal teaching, requisite to the suc¬cess of our educational adventures.CURRENT OF MODERNART TOWARD DESIGN,SAYS N.

StrauKsIn a year that saw the upset oftwo conference championship teams,the outstanding bright spot in theUniversity of Chicago athletic rec¬ord was the success of the tennisteam, which, led by Captain Bill! Calohan and featuring George Lott,went through its entire season with¬out a single meet defeat and whichalso holds all the individual honorsof the Big Ten. 'George Lott, Number three rank¬ing national player swept throughall opposition in the conference tour¬nament to meet hos own team mate,Scotty Rexinger, in the finals. Scot¬ty was only a sophomore, but hebeat some of the best and most ex¬perienced college players in the mid¬dle west to get runner-up honors.Then, teamed writh Captain Calohan,Lott took the double honors, leavingnothing for the other conferencecontenders to take back to their re¬spective Alma Maters but the honorand the glory of a fair defeat Theother men on the team, Herby Hey-man, Scotty Allison ,and Stan Kap¬lan all showed good form and ability,and under the leadership of GeorgeLott, as captain, next year, the teamshould have no trouble at all in work¬ing their will writh all their oppon¬ents. Football, as the world knows, wasone sport in which Chicago did notexcel, however. As a matter of fact,the grid team’s record is virtually,the antithesis of the net team’s, be¬ing entirely devoid of victories in theconference season. The team ledby Captain Saul Weislow, who re¬ceived an unfortunate and disablinginjury at thq beginning of the sea¬son, fought hard, but it was so de¬ficient in weight and in pure foot-bal ability that it was hopelessly out¬classed. The Old Man’s plays arestill as tricky and smooth as ever,but where Michigan and Illinois gettwo hundred men out for football,Chicago gets thirty-five, a fact whicheplains the whole situation in itself.What little Chicago has done on thefootball field in the last few yearsis certainly very much to its credit,in the face of all the handicaps ithad to surmount. Also, it must notbe forgotten that as recently asthree years ago, the Maroon squadwas tied for the conference title,without a single defeat.The baseball squad suffers fromthe same handicap as football—lackof materil—as do—^virtually all ofthe teams foi *hat matter—but un¬der the able leadership of Bob Kap¬lan, who pitched a considerable num¬ber of the team’s games, they faredwell, attaining a .500 average atmid-seson. After that they werenot able to stand the gafi and drop¬ped away considerably.The track team, taken individual¬ly, had a very good season, althoughthe team rating was not s high asmight be expected with the stars init. Hal Haydon who combines hurd¬ling writh his Phi Beta activities wonthe conference indoor high hurdletitle, getting a new record to do so.Then, unfortunately, he injured hisankle and was incapacitated for therest of the year. Virg Gist, whowon the National outdoor half miletitle a year ago attained second hon¬ors this year in his specialty. NormRoot, captain-elect showed conclu¬sively that he was the third bestsprint man in tee conference, tak¬ing the dust of only Simpson ofOhio and Tolan of Michigan. COACHING STAFFREORGANIZED ATU.

Here theyare:“IT IS MY OWN"Deep in the sepulchre of selfHave I hidden my hurt,That none might tender meUnwanted sympathy,Or lay their fingers on my wound.It is my own;No man shall know how deep the cut.Nor woman knowHow sharp her thrust.

The per capita con¬sumption of all cereals today is 2 10pounds, as compared to 380 in 1910, the consumption of wheat declining20 per cent in the last fifteen years,and the consumption of corn drop¬ping 40 per cent in a quarter of acentury.Drink More Milk NowOne of the greatest increases hasbeen in the consumption of milk,which now amonts to more than onethousand pounds per person, as com-paied to 830 pouns in 1916. In thelast twenty-five years, consumptionper capita of sugar has increasedfrom 85 pounds to 108 pounds, near¬ly two-thirds of the increase comingsince the prohibition law went intoeffect. Though fruit consumptionis about the same, there has beena swing gi’eatly to the favor of cit¬rus fruits. Vegetable oils have alsobecome an important part of theAmerican diet and pork consumptionalso has increased, while beef con¬sumption as been maintained.“This shift in diet from the loseexpensive cereal foods the moreexpensive meats ana milk, has beenencouraged by the large increase inincome of the urban |)opulation dur¬ing and since the world war. The re¬cent surplus of agricultural commod¬ities would have been mch greater,and the depression of prices of farmproducts much more severe, had notthis shift in diet occurred,” Mr.Baker said.
