"AMERICANS DON'T KNOW HOW MUCHBETTER OFF THEY ARE," SAYS DR. HOLT

Announced to speak on "Europe as I saw it this summer" for theopening of the Tuesday evening series at the Congregational Church,Dr. Hamilton Holt moved rapidly from country to country and quickly'. brought up at Geneva where his life-long ideal

still functions."There are only two ways to conduct'1 human

affairs," affirmed Dr. Holt, "by force or by rea-son, and the League of Nations which somepeople consider a joke is the greatest step wehave taken to use reason since the Declarationof Independence."

It was evident that the distinguished travelerhad never lost sight of the League no matter howmuch he enjoyed seeing the pastoral life in theBalkans, the colorful Gypsies, and Florence, whichhe called the "most beautiful city in the world",and where he walked in imagination with Savon-arola, Dante, Macchiavelli and a score of othercelebrated Florentines, looking for stones for theWalk of Fame at Rollins.

A few highlights:"Half of the people I asked said there. would

be a war; half said no; all feared there wouldbe, but I conkl not get from anybody what the

"After-a talk like lliis I issues were or on which side the nations wouldfight—a humiliating revelation of the weaknessof our civilization." Continued on Page Four.

WINTER PARK RETURNSTO LECTURE HALLS

The opening of the lecture sea-son found Winter Parkians like St.Paul's Athenians and the strangersthat sojourned there spending"their time in nothing else buteither to tell or to hear some new,thing'. The lecture halls of thisFlorida Areopagus are throngedalmost daily by seekers for knowl-edge.

• Dr. Holt started off the 1938 ser-ies, and Dr. John Martin followedwith the first of his ten lectures onInternational Relations. N e x tweek brings a barrage of lecturesthat will sharpen up our Athenianappetites. Oei Monday, Dr. Thom-as Chalmers takes us bufore "APicture; of Emrpe, July 1937, Jan-uary 1938", a picture, whose colorsare not yet dry. On Monday aft-ernoon we relax a bit to hear fromDr. Evelyn Newman about "Cur-rent Plays on Broadway", a sub-ject that the Athenians would nothave considered at all out of theirken.

Broadway gives way to 'Homerand the Mycenaean Age" (whichwas old even in St. Paul's day)when Dr. Helen W. Cole addressesher audience at the Woman's Clubon Tuesday. Thursday brings Dr.Martin again to the Auditoriumrostrum to tell of the "BrusselsConference and America's policy".Dorothy Thompson should attendthis lecture as she can't find Amer-ica's policy.

U.S. CAN'T CONTROL WARSAYS JOHN MARTIN

A few highlights of Dr. Martin'slecture on "The War in China".

Japan considers this a religiouswar to make Asia independent ofthe Western world under her lead-ership, China in 1923 rejected afriendly Jap over-lordship, a relig-ious and phychological collision en-sued. If China got time Japan'schance would be lost,

A group of young Jap officersare war crassy, mutinous, irrespon-sible, welcome war with Russia,England and America. We can't

Rejuvenation of the old 3-hole CountryClub course into a 9-hole course, and theimprovements to the clubhouse.Building of the new University Club ad-joining the Country Club.Start of work on the new Mead BotanicalGarden with the aid of a Federal Loan.Inauguration of an adequate sight-seeingmotor boat service on our chain of lakes.

It is inevitable that Winter Park will reflect all theseimprovements in the increased valuations of realestate. Our suggestion to those who are contemplat- •ing a Florida winter home is to buy now. This officewill be pleased to show you the opportunities avail-able.
