A very in te res t ing and inspir ing
address was delivered to the V. M.
and the V. W. two weeks ago by
Rev. Vel tkamp of the Central Ave.
Chr is t ian Reformed Church, who spoke on "Tolerance ." A large and
a t ten t ive audience of both men and
women listened to the discussion and to a musical p rogram in charge
of a mixed qua r t e t . During our last V. M. meet ing.
Dr. Van Saun delivered a highly
educational talk on "Cer ta in t ies and Uncer ta in t ies . " The develop-ment of this subject led Dr. Van Saun into science and his tory, as well as religion. The speaker ' s wealth of in fo rmat ion held the in-tense in teres t of everybody.

C O N C E R T MAY 21
A very educat ional as well as
en joyable t r ip to t he city of De-troit was made by the members of
the Hope Chemis t ry Club on May
12. Officials of the Parke-Davis Co. greeted the club in the morn-
ing, including several of the "bad
men" of Hope who had painted the
city red the n ight before in spi te
of one home sick senior who in-
sisted t ha t he be b rought back to
his small home town. A f t e r the
guides had shown the visi tors all
of the labora tor ies and the manu-f ac tu r ing processes, the Hope dele-
gat ion was joined wi th a s imi la r
delegat ion f rom the Univers i ty of
Chicago to enjoy motion pic tures
of the exper imenta l f a r m of the
Parke-Davis Co. The ca fe te r ia was
next opened to the s tudents , and
even the wai ters were surpr ised to see what some of t he boys could
eat when they were allowed to
keep thei r purse s t r i n g s tied.
In the a f te rnoon the group jour-neyed across the city to enjoy
ano ther fine reception at the Gen-
eral Motors Research Labora tory . Here, as well as in the forenoon,
all learned a g r e a t deal of pract ical
chemist ry . A f t e r th is , the t ired
group lef t for home.
Dr. Vergeer took his bacteriology
class to Detroit F r i d a y to visit the Parke-Davis Co. The class le f t
ear ly in the morn ing and ar r ived in t ime to go t h r o u g h the "pill
f a c t o r y " before d inner . Later , the company showed them moving pic-
tures on the mak ing of toxins and vaccines. A f t e r going through the
Research Science Building, the stu-dents went out to Parkdale , the
f a r m owned by the company, and
there they were shown the care and t r ea tmen t of the an imals used for
scientific purposes. The tr ip proved to be enjoyable as well as very in-
s t ruct ive .

On Monday evening. May 22, the
Phi Kappa Delta held its annual
sp r ing mee t ing at the homa ol
Prof . Ri t te r . Customari ly , the
g roup ce lebra tes the year ' s activi-
ties with a spr ing banquet , but
since it, was though t wise to dis-
pense with t h a t for this year , Prof .
Ri t te r very graciously extended an
invitation to come to his home.
The chief purpose of this sp r ing
meet ing is to ini t iate t he new mem-
bers into the f r a t e r n i t y , and to
elect the o f f i ce r s for the coming
year . This year , there were seven
new members who took the pledge
of Phi Kappa Delta. These were :
Vera Holle, Marian Wray , Sher-
wood Price, Chr is t ian Walvoord,
Richard Evenhuis , Ralph Danhof f ,
and Les ter Wolter ink. These rep-
resent the s tuden ts who have en-
tered thei r f i r s t year of forensic
activi t ies, and who have come up
to the s l a n d a r d s set for Phi Kappa
Delta membership .
Following the initiation cere-
mony. the- following members were
elected to fill the various off ices
for next y e a r ; Marvin Kruizenga,
p res iden t ; Joe Es the r , s ec r e t a ry
and t r e a s u r e r ; Henry Kuizenga,
manager of o r a t o r y ; Marian Wray ,
manage r of women's debate, and
Chris Walvoord, m a n a g e r of men's debate .
The r ema inde r of the evening
was -pent in a more informal man-
ner. Mi.-s Payne and Mr. Ri t t e r
discussed br ief ly the prospects for
next year ' s forensic activit ies, and
expressed the hope t ha t many stu-
dents would show an active inter-
est in debate, and tha t Hope would
have a very successful year .

THE HOME LAHORATORY
Along with increasing perfection in the use of the native tongue, Americans have been developing a parallel interest, neglected until the dawn of modern times. While they have reduced the a r t s of argument and composition to basic formulae, they have at the same time lessened the necessity for argument by the growth of the "scientific a t t i tude." Investigation and research have supplemented, though not supplanted, theory and polemics. In reality, research may be considered a new, irrefutable type of argument giving mute evidence tha t fa r outweighs any verbal barrage.
The man who employs this scientific experimentation in the modern age has invariably been characterized by objec-tiveness. His very investigations have demonstrated how unreliable are his unassisted senses. So the scientist of today in his laboratory is cool, objective, impartial, and methodical, despite the a t tempt of some modern authors to idealize his movements and impart to their infallible regularity the glamor of adventure and the at traction of the unknown.
Scientists and civilians alike, however, have undoubtedly been impressed by a third aspect of modern life: In a high speed age, when business and professional men rely upon brains ra ther than brawn for the essentials of existence, nerves have been tortured and strained to the breaking point. Mental incompatability — temperamental irrascibility, if you will — has become a prominent cause for divorce. Tempers are becoming increasingly difficult to control.
A way out is pointed by the popular trend already referred to. Let the civilian as well as the scientist separate emotion f rom his deeds and motives. Let objectivity be cultivated in the place of impassioned argument . It is sophistical to declare tha t this will delete tiie loveable characterist ics from personalities; it is in spite of, not because of such t ra i ts that we admire others. Who would decry the substitution of a cool, candid consideration of fac ts for an exchange of vehement diatribes? Cavil is not criticism. Let heated, un-thinking, emotional outbursts be confined to their legitimate spheres, forensics and literature. Judiciousness and sagacity will render individuals in their public and private lives at once more likeable and more cognizant of the niceties of social etiquette and human conduct. — S. I'.

Where waves r ise up complain-

That answers not, but by the

Like choirs of muted psalteries,

A wind-borne music, soft ly elo-

He drinks the lucid water born of

And seeks a token in the vibrant

And I think the while of the very

Of a quivering deer as he views

"In no week in the last three years have the repor ts covering
most lines of productive and dis-tr ibutive activity contained so many evidences of consistent im-provement ," is the observation of a leading mercanti le review of last
week. Certain justif ication for such
i view was to be seen in Fr iday ' s market which showed a $1 to $10 flare up in stock prices. If that continues it's "Good-bye, Mr. De-press ion , ' and there ' l l be "no sad-ness of farewell ." v
In spite of denials and censor-hip, there is no doubt tha t an
jgreement has been signed to put an end to the hostilities in north
China between the Chinese and Ja-panese. The te rms of the t ruce are that Chinese forces are to be kept
south of a certain line while the Japanese must remain north of it. 'essation of Chinese "provocat ions" ilso figures in the deal.
LAST MINUTE WORK This is the season of the year when sad stories of post-
poned work are floating about the campus — work tha t simply must be done by June the first, but which will not be begun until May the twenty-ninth. Along with this complaint comes another, that of studying for final examinations. The complaint is the necessity of spending in work all these beau-tiful spring days that seem meant only for play. It is hard to sit in the library, hunched over some educational, philo-sophical or l i terary theme, when outside the birds are sing-ing, the sun is shining and other s tudents are out playing tennis or going on long walks.
Now tha t the student faces this situation he can only make the best of it by cramming or overworking the last few days, and then later wonder why the professor gives him a C or a D. If any of the seniors are guilty of this, we can only say, the past is past. But to those tha t remain there is still the opportunity to develop a new at t i tude toward ; school work. Why not make a resolution tha t never again a t the close of a semester shall we be faced with stacks of unfinished work? A resolution is not enough, however. One must learn to budget one's time so tha t no day or week passes without its full share of work accomplished. There is a radiant feel-ing after having done a thing well and done on time, or bet ter still, a little ahead of time. It will not only save worry and cramming and give time for play when springtime comes, but it also gives the professors an opportunity of getting their work done by the time school closes, and even a professor likes to have a vacation at this season of the year. If we refuse to learn from the experiences of others, let us not be so foolish as to refuse to learn from our own.
The old 5-.")-3 naval ratio main-
tained by Great Dritain, the United States , and J a p a n is again being at tacked, this t ime by Japan , who
demands before the disarmament commission that the ratio be changed in her favor . Both the
British and American delegates op-posed the Japanese proposal. More dilliculties were added when Spain, in behalf of the smaller nations,

The g rea tes t need of our country

lege g radua tes who become the
leaders in our nation. Many people
have ent rus ted their ear th ly goods

A means for ex te rmina t ing the
mosquito has been suggested by
Joseph M. Ginsburg, bio-chemist,
working on entomology at the New
Jersey exper iment stat ion. A lar-
vicide of pyre th rum emulsified with
kerosene he has found will not in-
jure fish, wa te r fowl or plant life,
and also will not stain., or deterio-
rate rubber, as the use of fuel oil
does. Though more is required pel
given area , yet the price is lower for equal effectiveness. It can be used with sa fe ty in water used for bathing, and el iminates fire hazard.

• • • The Aletheans anticipated the
events of Tulip Week in the Tulip
T ime program presented May 5th. It was discovered t ha t tulips can
be looked at f rom many points of view and the word has hidden
meanings . According to custom the Alethe-
ans held a meet ing f o r their moth-ers , real and borrowed, on May
12th. The p rog ram was varied and the mothers were given an insight
into the society in teres ts of their
daughte rs . "Amer icans AH" was the theme
of the Alethea meet ing of May 1!). Hy displaying the character is t ics
and customs of the three American races, the white , the red, and the hlat-k, it wa.-? clearly demonst ra ted
tha t all a re the same fundamen-tal ly. And tha t the re should bo
equali ty. The Call to Arms was headed by
the Alethea society on the evening
of May 2Gth. in a Memorial Day p rogram the bat t les and victories of every-day life were shown and
all the girls have come to the con-clusion tha t they want peace at
any price.

« « • The regular weekly meet ing of
the f ra te rn i ty was held Thursday evening with Yankee Doodle Wie-gerink opening the fun by leading the men in a few of the old favo-rites.
The main bout of the evening was a debate, "Resolved that United Sta tes recognize Russia ," with Marve Kruizenga punching for the aff i rmative and Henry Kui-zenga doing the negat ive work. The debate was a tie.
The other two numbers on the program consisted of two vocal solos by Milt Spaan, who sang, " Jus t a Wearying fo r You," and
"That Wonderful Mother of Mine," and a paper by Kenneth De Jong on " the Good and Bad of News-papers and Magazines."
Lloyd Coster as mas te r critic told the f ra te rn i ty ju^ t how good the p rogram was and fo r what rea-sons.
The regular F ra te r meeting of
the past week opened with prayer
by F ra t e r Decker.
The first number on the program
was FraK'i Maring 's "Philosophy
of Life." His ideas wore thor-
oughly approved by his audience.
F r a t e r s Muilenberg and Van
Domelen supplied the music. "Ted-

The Hope golf team this year
is without question the best golf
team tha t Hope has ever had. Af t -
er losing the f i r s t match of the
year to (Jrand Rapids Junior , the
Orange and Blue team has hung
up seven s t ra ight victories. In-
cluded among their victims were
Albion, Olivet, Grand Rapids Jun-
ior and Muskegon Junior . (Julf has ne \e r been :i conference
sport . However, at a recent meet-
ing of the conference coaches, it
was decided to make golf a confer-
ence sport next year . Hope has.
no doubt, the best team in the con-
ference, and if it were a conference
sport would easily win the title
this year . "Ben" Timmer, Hope No. 1 man,
has boon playing excellent golf
this spr ing . Included in his scores
is a 71 and several other low TO's.
Most of Hope's scores have ranged
between 75 and 85 dur ing the sea-
son. "Russ" Paa lman, Harvey
Scholien and "Les" Serier make up
the golf team. " R " Harvey Schol-
ten, Hope's No. 3 man, is captain
of the team and has ably guided his
team to a most successful season.
"Capt . Harv" thoroughly believes
that pie is the best thing for the
golfers to t rain on. Fu tu re play-
ers, see the captain for fu r the r in-
format ion. Four matchcs still remain on the
golf schedule, one with Albion,
two with Kazoo and another with
Grand Rapids Junior . We wish
them all the luck in the world.
These boys are to be congratulated
for they have financed their team
themselves. They have gone out
and represented the school, but
they have received no financial aid
f rom the athletic board. Three of
the members of the team will re-
turn next year , therefore , the
Orange and Blue should gain the
f i rs t golf championship of the con-
ference.

o HIGH SCHOOL AND
COLLEGE CHOIRS SING AT VESPER
Spr ing has arrived and with its
coming our fellow athle tes
thoughts turn to many things and
they are seen doing many things
quite out of the ordinary. For in-
stance, there a re only a few who
really think about next year ' s foot-
ball and basket ball seasons. There
are only a few ol the football and
basket ball player who play on
our tennis and golf t eams . Well, then, jus t what do they do? Well,
one of the famous au tho r s s ta tes
the answer very well when he said
that their thoughts turn towards
love. Of course, the spr ingt ime
isn't the only t ime this occurs. But
we must give our boys credit for
ihe s tudying they do in the spring.
Yes. they try to squeeze a semes-
ter 's work in four weeks ' time.
More power to them. But on the
o ther hand they a ren ' t the only
ones who do this.
Our golf team is making a name
for itself. The members of the
team have lost only one match
and they have won six s t ra igh t
victories. This entire team with
the exception of one' comes back
next yea i . We expect many vic-
tories f rom them at tha t time. As
you know, our golf team is—ah—
er—supervised by Coach Hinga.
Coach Hinga traveled to Albion
last Sa turday and played golf with
the various coaches. Now Profes-
sor Raymond was "cldVk of the
course" at this meet. We do not
know the exact meaning of this
term. It should mean that the per-
son involved is the one who tables
the scores of the t rack meet, but
we rathei have an idea that Prof .
Raymond holding down the position
of "clerk of the course" carried an
adding machine around the course
for the benefit of Mr. Hinga and
the other coaches. Coach Hinga
is really a good golfer , coming in
with the lowest score, but the cali-
bre of his competi tors is not
known. The tennis team also went to
Albion last Sa tu rday . They left
Fr iday af ternoon and spent the
evening there. Now that ' s que-er.
There is a question in mind as to
what they did for en ter ta inment
that night. We know that our
boys do not especially care foi
early hours of sleep. Of course,
there is a nudist colony near that
college town but suspicion in this
case would be out of the question.
But then on the ( t h e r hand our
boys did not win a match that day
so it is recommended that an in-
vestigation be held.
T H E WEATHERCOCK wishes
all a merry vacation and hopes
that our athletes come back in the
"pink of condition" to win those
M. 1. A. A. football and basket
ball championships next year. The

WINTER GREENS NOT T R U E
WINTER frreens are not ut nil suited for ;rood puttlus. The
frozen ground and tfrass roots make Ihe ball run anywhere but where it should f^o. Those of us fortunate enough to spend the winter in Cali-fornia will lind summer conditions prevailing. It is the same in Flor-ida where the greens are not en-tirely frozen. I'ineliurst lias sand greets and the hall runs true.
If one plays a lot of golf on fro-zen greens it is best not to take the jianie too seriously and it would be just as well to putt with a mid-Iron. or any club but the putter because one may lose his putt ins; touch if he attempts to stick by the putter alt winter. In other words he would lose confidence In hini-sel f.

A telephone does more than lessen worry. It serves the household many times daily in business and social affairs. And in emer-gencies, it enables you to summon doctor, firemen, police or other aid, instantly.
