Mr. Straus, who is a gradu ate of Crater High" school, re turned to the United States recently following an assign ment on a Philco contract with the U.S. Navy's Sixth Fleet. stressed that each should rec ognize the importance of a certain amount of self-knowledge. "Man . is the only creature on earth that can look into himself," the speaker con tinued. "Humans possess that force of life and energy which makes certain conditions or things true because it is ac cepted to be the case. These powers may be employed either creatively or destruct ively each day." The idea held by the indi vidual can either overcome or make a tremendous change in circumstance, a person can employ forces that make all the difference in the world. "While learning of your self," the speaker continued, "check further to see what implications there are in the aging process. Some persons age faster than others. Each has the ability to stem or ac celerate the aging process, it all depends on what we do ourselves." The brain reaches its peak of ability at the age of 60 and may remain on a high plane beyond 80, much later than the peaks of the physical abilities, he said. Within the complex com munications system of the brain cells lies the power to slow up the process of grow ing old, the speaker declared. "Don't die from the top down," the speaker command ed, "don't let the brain lie dormant, keep the mind alert, think about living with others -life is a two-way street, you should make it . pleasant for others as well as yourself." Individuals today are liv ing under the tyranny of the immediate, the speaker con tinued, they have no perspec tive, the world is dominated by the scientific method. To day science is a paralleled affirmation of what religion has been saying, he declared. "Not what I have or what I do, it is what I am that is my kingdom,". Dr. Donald quoted of Thomas Carlyle. "The more we know about the universe the more we find that it is not a machine but a gigantic idea." "Reality is an idea, not a thing," the speaker said, and concluded by asking, "our kingdom is vast and great in deed, why then should we fail to find that living with our selves is a pleasure?" Dr. Donald is the counselor and minister of the Bethel Evangelical and Reformed church in Detroit. He has studied for hospital work at Presbyterian and Wesley Me morial hospitals in Chicago and received his education at Northwestern University School of Theology and the graduate school on the Chi cago campus. He is also an author of magazine articles. The speaker was introduced by H. D. Christensen, presi dent of the club.
