DEAN REBEC TO SPEAK IN AID OF ART MUSEUM “Europe Five Years After” Subject of Talk on Post War Affairs; Material Drawn From Travels Dr. George Rebec, dean of the grad uate school of the University and head of the department of philosophy, who has just returned from a year and a half spent abroad, will give a lecture in Portland this evening on the sub ject of “Europe Five Years After.” This will be Dr. Rebec’s first public appearance since his return to Oregon and a large crowd is expected to fill the Lincoln high school auditorium to hear him, as his reputation as a lectur er and observer of political and social affairs is widespread. JJunng nis travels abroad Dr. Rebec spent considerable time on the con tinent, investigating the internal po litical situation in which he is greatly interested, and his address this evening promises to be full of first hand in formation on the subject, as well as his own predictions as to the outcome of the unsettled conditions which have prevailed in Europe since the war. His talk will not necessarily be confined to the continent, for he also spent some time in England and is equally familiar with political and social affairs there. Dr. Eebec’s appearnace will be for the benefit of the future art museum of the University on the campus and proceeds from the event will go towards providing additional equipment for the Murray Warner collection which at present lacks sufficient space and pro tection. The lecture is being managed by friends of the University in Port land, who report that the sale of tick ets has been large and a big attend ance is expected. -Say HeUo First POPULAR NEW FICTION AVAILABLE AT LIBRARY “Black Oxen” and Town and Gown” More Than Pay For Themselves at the Five Cent Bate “Black Oxen,” by Gertrude Ather ton, and “Town and Gown,” by Lyn and Lois Montross, are recorded as the most popular fictional books in the library so far this year. Both these books are in the rent collection and although bought only a short time ago, have already more than paid for themselves. “Black Ox en,” has brought in $2.75 and “Town and Gown,” $2.55, at the rent rate of five cents a day. Other books next in popularity are “Homely Lilia,” by Herrick; “The Fascinating Stranger,” by Tarkington; “Babbit,” by Sinclair Lewis; “My Antonia,” by Willa Cathers, and “The Vegetable,” a play by Fitzgerald. Several books have been taken from the rent shelf and put in the regular stacks. New rent books have been ordered by Mabel E. McClain, circula tion librarian, and are expected soon. Former rent books now available for regular circulation are “Danger,” by Poole; “Our Better Poets,” Maynard; “The Breaking Point,” Binehart; “The Cathedral,” Walpole; “Peter Whiffle,” Van Vechten; “Bough Hewn,” Canfield; “This Freedom,” Hutichson; “The Eeturn,” De La Mare; “Mary Quite Contrary,” Ervine; and volume one and two of “Swan’s Way,” by Proust. -Say Hello First HOCKEY TO COME IN SPRING Elimination of Mud Expected to Im prove Game Over That of Fall Although for the last three years the University of Oregon has played hockey in the fall term, it has been made a spring sport this year, accord ing to an announcement made from the women’s physical education depart ment. Heretofore, the hockey team has been handicapped by a muddy field. By making hockey a spring sport it will vie with the other sports such as baseball, horse-back riding, and target practicing. According to those in charge, a better hockey team is a probable result of this change. -Say HeUo First RESERVE BOOKS PLACED WITH RENT COLLECTION Plan Enables Students to Secure Extra Copies; Some Now Available for Campus Borrowers Copies of all reserve books in the library are to be put on the rent col lection shelf as a new experiment. These books may be obtained at the circulation desk at the rate of five cents a day. The earnings from the rent fund will go toward paying for the new rent copies. “The purpose of this new plan,” explains M. H. Douglass, librarian, “is to enable students to get extra copies of books if they wish to take them out. Those going home for week-ends may take rent books with them when the other copies could not be spared.” Some books that are now available to rent are “Psychology and the School,” Cameron; “The Principal and his High School,” Cubberly; “Funda mentals of Educational Measurments,” Gregory; “Biology of the Frog,” Holmes; “Teaching by Projects,” Mc Murry; “The Human Body,” Martin; “General Methods of INeaching in Elementary Schools,” Parker; “Text Book of Geology,” Parker and Haswell; “Essentials of Psychology,” Pillsbury; “Fundamentals of Psychology,” Pills bury; “Adolescence and High School Problems” Pringle; “The Story of Mankind,” Van Loon; “Human Psy chology,” Warren; and “Mioney and Banking,” by White.

It is a word which marks the color of modern thought as distinguished from the unscientific credulity which charac terized the thinking of all but a few philosophic minds, scarcely more than a century ago. Like a rising tide mod ernism has spread until it is almost im plied as the mental attitude of every 'educated person and it has almost com pletely captured all institutions of high er education. Incidentally but quite inevitably mod ernism disturbed the ages-old assump tions of religion, particularly that type of Christianity which based its theology on an inerrant scripture. Religious mod ernism then means a mental attitude which subjects Christianity to the same j scrutiny as all other social institutions. In other words, Christianity is not al lowed any special privileges. It is sub jected to the acid test of scientific in quiry like everything else. But this scientific inquiry into re ligion and religious books and creeds and beliefs does not destroy religion; but rather gives faith a new setting. Now Unitarianism because it had al ready, on philosophic grounds, broken with Evangelical Christianity, was, when the new facts regarding man in a wider universe were announced, not only free to accept them but disposed to welcome them. Hence, Unitarianism has provid ed most of the leaders and practically all of the shock troops in the advance of Modernism in religious fields. While the more apparent effect of Unitarianism has been destructive, in re ality it has been to a far greater degree constructive or re-constructive. The University is necessarily modern istic in its teaching. It could not be otherwise and sustain a worth-while rep utation. In our little Unitarian church on Elev enth avenue we are striving to give an interpretation of religion which accepts Modernism. We invite all University men and women to its services. The Morning Service is at 10:45 each Sunday. This is the chief service of the day. We have no regular even ing .service. The theme for next Sunday’s sermon will be “Lives and Life.” The soloist at this service will be Miss Johanna James, soprano. Because we would be a friendly church and responsive to the noblest ideals of humanity, we like to describe our group as TEE LITTLE CEUBCH OF THE HUMAN SPIRIT —again The STROLLERS TONIGHT at the New Armory l]J If you didn’t go last week you missed something GRAB PHONE CALL GOT A DATE—DON’T BE LATE—AGAIN!
