Apparently they should be enlightened. . At Aberdeen we came into Con tact with a very democratic com munity. Consequently there were people with whom we could meet with a common understanding. I should pay Aberdeen the compli ment of being very much lfke an American community. We upheld the motion that democracy was a failure and won by a good ma jority. In the Linen City Our debate with the University of Belfast in Ireland was one of great Interest. Democracy was again discussed. A peculiar thing about British debating la the ap parent Inconsistencies due to the various speakers falling to con suit one another. In Belfast the first speaker, who was a profes sor in the university, supported democracy on a logical and philo sophical basis. The next speaker denied that democracy ever exis ted and therefore could not pos sibly be either a failure of a suc cess. He was a devout socialist. The third speaker did not support either of these assertions, but ra ther entertained the audience with jokes. We won the divi sion of the house by an over whelming majority. And at Dublin As Hempstead and McCroskey went on to London, I was bound to represent the team at the meet ing of the historical society of Trinity university in Dublin. The society could not debate us, be cause certain traditions prevented myself in a hotel room, I com bined some of the thought InT my democracy bibliography and pro hibition material, stressing the wise aawa and modern Instances, and automatically there was evolved a speech on religion. I denied the motion that the Influ ence of religion Is declining. As yet, however, I do not know how the question was finally decided, since it is against all traditions for a stranger to be present when the members of the historical so ciety of Trinity university cast their ballots. We shall always remember the hospitality extended to us In the British Isles. They! make one feel quite at home. However, there is a difference between the hospi tality of the British and that of any such exchange of debates ex cept with Oxford or Cambridge. However, they were glad to grant us the floor at the meeting of the society where the rise and fall of the influence of religion was to be discussed. Now the historical society of Trinity university is the oldest debating society In any of! the British universities, having been founded by Edmund Burke while he was attending what was then known as Trinity college. And I was fully unprepared to speak on the rise and fall of the influence of religion. In fact, the questions of democracy and pro hibition had been the extent of my expectations for debate In the British Isles.

As for materialism, I can 'vouch from ex perience, if so-called money-grubbing tendencies are materialistic. that the European hotels at least are decidedly materialistic in out look. After the debate was over aj midnight supper was served In the; student union building. The chair-; man of the debate retained his1 red robe and acted as toastmaster. ! Scotch songs were in order as well! as' American songs from tin pan! alley. "Muddy Waters" went hand in hand with "Auld Lang Syne" and "My Bonnie Lies Over the Ocean." " Different Style There The British style of debate is decidedly different than ours. Much- heckling and booing of the speakers takes place. It is not at all embarassing, for it Is always expected. It shows that the audi ence Is really Interested In what one Is saying. If one delivers a dry, uninteresting speech the au dience as a rule will sit back and apparently fall asleep. Before the final speeches to sum up the ar guments are given, there is al ways an open period when the question Is thrown open to the bouse .for discussion. It was dur ing this period that the gentle man from Glasgow attacked not only democracy but also democ racy, in America so enthusiastical ly.
