BIG BOBBIE MEETING
HELD BY Y. HI. C. IE
_
Fred B. Smith and Raymond Robins1
Alternate in Speaking to
Audiences.
Approximately three hundred and
fifty men and women, most of whom
were townspeople, heard Fred B.
Smith and Raymond Robins, the great
Y. M. C. A. speakers, in four half
hour addresses in Villard Hall and in
the Women’s Gymnasium last even
ing, after the basketball game. Each
speaker spoke at both places, alter
nating with the International Quar
tette. President P. L. Campbell pre
sided at the men’s meeting in Villard,
while Mrs. Fletcher was in the chair
at the gathering of the women.
There were no announced subjects;
the shoit time available,—both speak
ers leaving on the 9:30 train for San
Francisco, from where they sail Fri
day for the Orient—made it neces
sary for brief personal talks to the
audiences.
Fred B. Smith, the “great speaker
to men,” who first appeared in Vil
lard Hall eleven years ago, and has
since been seen on the campus five or
six times, declared that at one time
his one ambition was to be a “cham
pion billiard player,” but was saved
from that fate by having been arrest
ed by the spirit of Christ.”
The object of the Men and Religion
Forward Movement, the speaker said,
was to swell the ranks of Christian
men, which he declared were three
million short.
The ability to get money is not to
be despised, but “mere money getting
is vulgar, absolutely vulgar,” contin
ued Mr. Smith, who declared that
“Not a man in this room is safe for
five years without religion.”
In conclusion, Mr. Smith, who is
still the same magnetic speaker, said,
“Get money, get position, get all that
is worthy of a man, but don’t be
afraid to let religion sway you in
your life.”
Raymond Robins, the Social Service
Leader in the Men and Religion For
ward Movement, spoke first to the
men. In a forceful manner, he point
ed out that our social conscience must
be developed among all, before our
twentieth century problems can be
faced and solved. He declared that
the solution of our problems will not
come about by the creation of “bitter,
antagonistic groups, and warring
classes.” But Mr. Robins affirmed;
that “We will never get through with-j
out religion.” The call for leadership
he said, would not be answered by
cold blooded, cold storage religion,
but from a mastery of the facts of
the Bible.
In conclusion the speaker remarked,
“It is by the wine poured out.
not drunk; not by what you receive,
but by what you give out, that the
great story of your life will be
told.”
PROF. DURR LECTURES
UPOR “PALLJIS ATKEHA”
Popular Subject in Artistic World
Depicted in Illustrated.
Lecture.
Pallas Athena, the most popular of
the duties among sculptors and paint
ers. was the subject of Professor
Dunn’s illustrated lecture last Tues
day afternoon. Many views were
shown, representing Athena in all her
attributes ranging from the dignified
“Ladies’ Home Journal” Minerva to
the almost masculine diety of righte
ous warfare. Not only has Athena
been defined as the protectress of
liberal ants, government, mentality
and just warfare, but there has even
been an attempt to identify the fa
mous Aphrodite of Melos with her.
However, a comparison of statues
brings out the impossibility of such a
theory. The “Parthenos” of Pheidias
was the most elaborate, and possibly
celebrated, although his “Lemnian
Athena” may have been as popular in
its time.
The next lecture on Tuesday after
noon at 4 o’clock will be upon a sub
ject rather of medivial history, St.
Lawrence and Lebastion,” a very
common source of material for Italian
medieval scuptors and painters.
