KALAMAZOO BOWS TO HOPE

TEAM IN EPIC COURT BATTLE

The last number of the Lyceum Course was given Friday night by the Welsh Imperial Singers direct-ed by Mr. R. Festyn Davies. This body of fourteen t rue Welshmen made a striking and pleasing ap-pearance dressed in characteristic red jackets. In the fine rendering, of their program, they upheld the fame ,of their country which is known as a nation of singers. Al-though each member of the group is a soloist, the ensemble work was excellent. From their repertoire of one hundred numbers, they sang the following:

"The March of the Men of Har-lech" which is their national hymn and always opens the program.

"Farewell to the Pamson.

"Killarney," Balfe. "Hymn to Apollo," Gounod. "Carry Me Back to Old Vir-

ginny," Arr. Perkins, t "Boys of the Old Brigade,"

baritone solos. " 0 Isis and Osiris" (Magic Flute

We join in the hope of the di-rector tha t they may appear here again soon, for these singers ful-filled every promise of excellency that preceded their coming.

On Thursday evening, Hope par-ticipated in two of the series of Women's Debates on the subject of "State Medicine." Hope's affirma-tive team, consisting of Arloa Van Peursem, Marion Warner, and

Louise Kieft, waged their battle in the beautiful library building at Kalamazoo College, Kalamazoo. The speeches were constructive and well given, and a f t e r a clever com-bat, Judge Henry, of Battle Creek,

£ve the decision to the negative im of Kalamazoo College. The

decision was made on the basis of case, evidence, refutation, and pre-sentation. We are sorry tha t our affirmative lost, but we are proud of the way in which they competed fo r their college.

Hope's negative team met the a f -firmative team of Alma College a t Grave's Hall. The negative team, however, proved more successful.

What? Didn't you know that the inter-sorority basketball games are going to be in full swing soon? Well, they are. and will undoubt-edly be very exciting and interest-ing.

Last year, as a result of the games, Dorian took the honors by winning the cup. Sorosis followed second. There was a great deal of competition in these games, and it looks as if there will be just as much or more this year. Last Thursday night was supposed to have been the date fo r the first game, but owing to the many other outside activities, it was postponed. The first game to be played is scheduled for this week, the girls have been practicing extremely hard and have displayed a great deal of enthusiasm for the great winter sport, which up to last year had always been considered the special province of the boys.

Both Henry Klein-heksel and Arthur Ter Keurst rep-resenting Hope debated well and it is very probable tha t had there been judges Hope would have re-ceived the decision.

On Saturday an affirmative team journeys to Battle Creek to meet that college in a radio debate. This debate will be judged by Prof. Simpson of Kalamazoo College, who will listen in. The team which will represent Hope has not been definitely chosen.

One of the Little Things in Life

The following letter and article were sent to the Anchor by R. G. Huizinga, a Hope alumnus, now living in Schenectady, N.Y. My Dear Editor:

Imagine my surprise, while scouring through the pages of the evening paper, when I came across a photo of two basket ball players wearing the Hope College Uniform. The picture taken several years ago in Carnegie Hall, shows the Vruw-ink brothers dur ing their college days. Naturally my thought Went back to 'ole Alma Mater' and .the pleasant days enjoyed during my four years on Hope's Campus.

I am sending you the article as it appeared in the Albany Evening News, knowing tha t you have an alumni section in the Anchor. Mr. Vruwink is one of the leading min-isters in New York State, pastor of the largest Reformed church in Al-bany, New York. He is a staunch supporter of Hope College and its activities.

This is just another example which shows the f a r reaching influ-ence of Hope. The college may not be large, but her name, her tradi-tions, the ideals for which she stands, are continuously being pro-claimed in every par t of the world.

Sincerely yours, R. G. Huizinga.

Hope held the lead during the entire game, but Calvin fought doggedly, and at no time during the forty minutes of play were the Hope followers confident of vic-tory. Our boys left the court a t the half with an 18 to 13 advantage.

Captain Clarence Becker was the outstanding Hope man in the f ray . Playing before his home town crowd, Becker led the scoring with nine points. Van Appledorn and Bontekoe shone fo r Calvin.

On Tuesday, February 10, th^

Young Men's Christian Association

of Hope College held its regular

weekly meeting. Mr. Roger Voskuil

opened the meeting with a song service. Mr. Clarence Becker read the scripture lesson. This was fol-lowed by a series of sentence pray-ers. Mr. John Muilenberg furnished the special for the evening by ren-dering two trombone solos. Since the birthday of Abraham Lincoln was but two da^s hence, the main theme of program had Lincoln's life as a background. Mr. Justin Van der Kolk gave a fine address on the words of the great Emancipator "With Malice Toward None."

Last week Wednesday at five-thirty P. M., nine men gathered at Carnegie Hall. A t six P. M. all nine got into a 1910 model Buick and headed fo r Eas t Grand Rapids.

At six-twenty-five an old seven passenger car was seen standing at the side of the road jus t past the sink hole. This vehicle was the Buick. Her f r o n t r ight t ire had exhausted itself and was being re-placed. The nine passengers work-ed diligently to get the old bus on her four feet again. Car af ter car sped by. Over ninety per cent of these cars were occupied by loyal Hopeites and supporters of the men who labored a t the side of the high-way.

The game between the Calvin reserves and the Hope Frosh was supposed to begin a t seven-fifteen. The Hope Frosh arrived a t eight o'clock. With numbed hands and fatigued bodies these nine Frosh fought to uphold the colors of dear old Hope.

When word of the * arrival of Harold Lloyd's "incubator'^ baby flashed across the wires the other day, one Albany gentleman of the cloth chuckled and thought fond thoughts.

"Y. W." last Tuesday was well attended, and all of us who were there received a real message. Dr. Dimnent was the speaker, with "The Unbidden Guest" as his topic for discussion. He told us about Lincoln, the great American whose motto was ' to give the last full measure of devotion' to his God and his country. Dr. Dimnent urged us to take tha t as our motto too,

-and when & e "Unbidden Guest" knocked, we should answer ^I th our Mast full measure of devotion.'

The special music of the meeting was a duet, "The Lord Is My Shep-herd," sung by Louise Kief t and Mildred Klow.

The Emersonian Society had a Valentine par ty Thursday night, February 12, in the Masonic Temple. The par ty began humor-ously, and remained t h a t way throughout the whole evening. Les-ter Ellerbrook opened the program with a talk entitled "Hello a n d -How Are You?" Mr. Neil Van Leeuwen contributed a vocal solo entitled "For You Alone." The next number was given by Leon Winstrom, a freshman, on "Green Hearts." (Mr. Winstrom holds the theory tha t i t is a good thing tha t a freshman's hear t is green be-cause if a plant is green i t means that there is l^fe within and there are signs of growth, being red, i t Sophomores heart , being red, is like a lobster t h a t t u r n s red when it is half boiled, and the Senior's hearts a re like cut and dried t im-ber in which there is no life.)

What is Education?

Last December, the educa-:

tional world was somewhat |

startled at the announcement '

of the new experiment to be

put into practice by Chicago

University. This revolution-

ary system abolishes under-

graduate and post-graduate

divisions, and what is still

more inconoclastic, the four

year classifications. The stu-

dent is permitted to progress

as rapidly as his abilities and

desires allow and the only

s tandard of measurement is

a comprehensive examination!

which he may take at any time |

he thinks hifriself ready fo r it.;

The passing of such an exam- '

ination constitutes proof tha t :

he has mastered the course. A;

student may thereby obtain a

degree within the short space i

of one year, or iwo years, ac-! cording to his powers. Thej specified purpose of the new1

method is to give the superior student an opportunity to ac-quire an education with a ijiin- j -imum amount of time and j money, and, a t t h e same time.! to discourage the inferior type, who, coming to college' for a good time, finds it com-! paratively easy to get a de-' gree under the old credit sys-| tem.

At first glance, this modern method appears to have only merits, but we are inclined to wonder if its products will not be either mere store-houses of facts, or nervous wrecks. We can visualize the haunted look in the eyes of one who earned his M.A. in a year and a half. It is true, he will have an edu-cation ; but will it be one that prepares him for life ? Surely there is more to education than the acquisition of a de-gree. It involves contact with various types of people, ex-change of ideas, bull-session^ sports, extra-curricular duties, and even good times. The val-ue of what we learn in the

class room consists of the ap-

plication we make of it out-

side, and we believe tha t the

processes should be simultane-

ous ; tha t is, to as grea t a de-

gree as four short years will

allow.

Washington

On the twenty-second day of February, the entire na-tion will celebrate the anniver-sary of the birth of George Washington, the f a t h e r of his country. Various means will Ix? employed • in the observ-ance, but there is one way in which we can all honor h im; by remembering his life, not by recalling his athletic prow-ess or his honesty, but ra ther by recognizing his accomplish-ments, as the leader of his people.

The United States of Amer-ica is the greatest t r ibute to the work of this man—a trib-u te which will last as long as these states are united. There may have l)een other men who were capable of doing what Washington did, but he alone dared, and gave his entire abilities and resources to a project in s t a tec ra f t new to this world.

Coupled with all of the ob-servances will be the usual de-bunking which falls to the lot of great men. A man cannot be truly great unless he is subject to the most intense criticism and can rise above i t . Tha t is the test of t rue great-

ness. 0

ADDISONIAN THe Jolly Addisonians held their

regular meeting Thursday night,

f h e hall resounded with songs both

new and old, while Kenneth Hicks

swung the baton. After devotions,

Harold Bellingham read a paper

full of humor-flavored information,

entitled "St. Valentine, a Myth."

Phil Engle introducing Abraham

Lincoln, by interpreting several

poems concerning him. Umekichi

Tsuda played the mandolin with his

usual dexterity. After George Bar-

ens had informed us about reasons

for fear on Friday the Thirteenth,

the society hurried thru the busi-

ness meeting to get home in time to

prepare for surprise tests.

Fraternal — Thursday evening

the Praters held their regular

meeting. Professor Lampen gave

his illustrated lecture on astron-

omy. His slides and remarks were

very enlightening and everybody

learned a great deal -about that

ancient science. Even Frater

"Dutch" Poppink, an authority on

the moon and its activities, ad-

mitted that he had learned much

that he hadn't known before. The

lecture combined with Chuck Van

Dommelen's entertainment ability

at the keys provided a splendid

meeting.

But there was more in store for

the fellows. After concluding his lecture Frater Lampen invited all the Fra ters to his home where Mr. Lampen had prepared delicious re-freshments. Before leaving, the Fraters sang a few songs and gave a few cheers for Mr. and Mrs. Lam-pen to let them know that the good time they had provided was appre-

ciated.

Knickerbocker—A noisy, but en-joyable Knick meeting took place Thursday evening at the house. Paul Brower opened the program with several well-chosen selections from the poetry of Vachel Lindsay, and preluded them with a criticism of the author. Allen Brunson gave a program of captivating saxo-phone music, accompanied by the newly-discovered pianist Brower. To make it a predominantly senior program. Pres. Fred Wyngarden read a humor paper, which took the form of an autobiography. What the boys don't know about Fred now isn't worth bothering about. Dick Van der Wilt took care of the weekly feature, Current events. Court Rylaarsdam closed the evening by reading a fine letter from Alumnus J. Paul Visscher.

o T H E OTHER FELLOW'S SIDE

Alethes — The Aletheans hear-tily enjoyed (as can be proven in more ways than one) a pot-luck supper in their society room last Friday. Af te r a short business ses-sion, the meeting was adjourned in time fo r the girls to attend the Lyceum course number. * ; -•

All the secrets that the new girls have been so fai thfully guarding for the past two weeks will no longer be secrets af ter this Thurs-day, when the new girls' program will be given.

Delphi — Millie Klow, Ruth Schreiber, Nellie Van Eeuwen and Helen Parish were hostesses a t a Delphi Tea Wednesday afternoon. A short business meeting was held af terwards at which Zella Skillem was pledged into the Delphi So-ciety.

Thursday evening the Delphi girls enjoyed a pot-luck supper served in the society room. Berdeah Welling and her committee have earned for themselves the reputa-tion of serving delicious pot-lucks.

Sorosis — The Pledges have spent the week in the company of the paint brush and the scrub brush. Now th eSorosis room fairly shines with a newly waxed and var-nished floor, polished furniture and clean windows.

Friday evening the Sorosites gathered for a pot-luck dinner and a business meeting. The meeting was adjourned early so that the

Lecture Course number could be attended.

This Friday evening formal ini-tiation of the pledges will take place.

When you're forming your opinions Do it carefully—then go slow;

Hasty judgments oft are followed By regretting—that I know.

And in argument be careful Not too quickly to deride—

Try to look upon the subject From the other fellow's side.

I

Ah, if we would use but caution, And a little less of self;

Think a little more of kindness, And a litle less of pelf;

Try to help the other fellow, Not to hur t him, don't you see

How much fai rer , brighter, better This old world of ours would be?

Keep the path your mind would travel

Broad and open all the way, Walk with Wisdom's comrade, Cau-

And no mat ter what arises. Ere against it you have cried,

Try to look upon the subject From the other fellow's side.

After observing the teams en-tered in the Inter-Frat League this year, it looks as though there will be some keen competition between them. Last year 's champions, the Emersonians, have a smooth work-ing quintet tha t promises to give the rest of the teams a hard ob-stacle to overcome. The Fraters, and Knickerbockers also show signs of being amongst the contenders for the coveted championship. The Cos-mopolitans too, have a strong team, although they lost one of their star players in the person of John Flik-kema. Les Vander Werf is playing a fine game at guard. The Addisons have not yet had a chance to show their wares. The Independents have not yet been completely or-ganized, so they will be the "dark horse" of this league.

Coach Schouten desires tha t all non-society men, that wish to play basketball, should see him because he desires to fill the league with six teams.

Beatrice Visser, Nella De Haan, and Josephine Rodenberg were the members of this team.

wink, pastor of the Madison Avenue Reformed Church. And the reason for his chuckle was t h a t his brother Dr. John Vruwink of Los Angeles was the stork surgeon.

"My brother John is a success," the Rev. Mr. Vruwink said today, "but, of course, he is not a success just because it was Harold Lloyd's baby. He and Lloyd have been fr iends for years, and great golfing companions. John is noted in Los Angeles, especially, fo r his skill in obstetrical cases. Af te r study in Vienna, he perfected a new lower cervical Caeserian operation that won him much acclaim f rom the medical world.

"Being where he is, near the Hol-lywood film colony, he enjoys a fine reputation among the s t i r s of that special firmament. He also was master of ceremonies at the birth of John Barrymore's and Dolores Costello's baby."

Behind this news lies a fine story of two brothers, two young athletes.

John and Henry Vruwink were bom in Grand Rapids, Mich., and went to Hope preparatory school together. Henry was always two years ahead of John through age, but 'every now and then they found themselves teammates.

In the prep school, they played football, basketball, baseball, and went in for track. They went to Hope College, at Holland, Mich. There for two years they were to-gether on the football team, Henry playing right halfback and John, end. And once more they played on every ^other athletic team to-gether.

When they parted, Henry was graduating, and suddenly his thoughts turned to theology.

"I had been studying medicine as John had started to," said the Rev. Mr. Vruwink, "but I began thinking of theology and found my mind topsy-turvy on religion. I de-termined that at least one or two years studying theology would be advantageous. I went to the New Brunswick Theological Seminary in New Jersey, and here I am, a min-ister."

John went to the University of Chicago to study medicine. Still t rue to his love fo r athletics, John was captain of the basketball team which won the conference cham-pionship in 1911, and played end for two years on the football team. Once his jaw was broken and he played the season out with a metal headgear to win All-Western hon-ors.

"The energy of athletics pushed John along," the Rev. Mr. Vruwink said. "They're a fine thing — Ath-letics. Especially in small colleges are they wholesome and enjoyable. In the larger colleges of today they are a business. I would like to see such a youth movement as now is going on in Germany started right here. Mass exercise, mass singing, mass joy in living."

There's another young Vruwink on the way to healtli and sucdss . John Vruwink, fifteen, is one of the best basketball players on the Al-bany Academy team, and next year, his fa ther hopes, he wiU be heavy enough for tha t old love of his, football.

; (Q by Woatern NtKSpSRtr Union)

hearts of gratitude looked a f te r the comfort of the Lord and his dis-ciples. This throws light on how Chr i s t ' and the apostles were sup-ported.

V. Jesus Teaching (vv 4-21). Jesus was not only a gospel

preacher but a great teacher. When the people from every city gathered unto him. he taught them.

1. By the Parable of the Sower (vv. 4-15). (1) The sower was Jesus himself (Matt. 13:37). (2) The seed was the Word of God (v. 11). (3) The kinds of ground (vv. 5-l.r.).

The kinds of ground show the condition of the human heart as the Word of God is preached.

a. The wayside (v. 5). The foot-trodden path of the wayside pic-tures the hard-hearted hearers upon which no impression can he made. The word preached finds no entrance and Satan snatches* It away as the birds pick up the grain from the hard-beaten track.

b. Stony ground (v. 6). This Is not ground where stones are mixed with the earth, but a thin layer of earth In a ledge of rock. This picture the hearer who receives the gospel with Joy, but when per-secutions and trials come, he gives up and deserts the company (v. 15).

c. Thorny ground (v. 7). The ground here is good, but it has thorns growing in it. This pic-tures those whose lives are fruit less because of being preoccupied with earthly cares, riches, and the pleasures of life (v. 14).

d. The good ground (v. S). The seed here sprang up and bore fruit to the full measure. This Is a pic-ture of the honest heart which re-ceives the gospel message and al-lows It to produce iu Its life u full harvest of grain (v. 15).

2. By the lighted candle (vv. 10-18). The Word of God is compared to a lamp or lighted candle. A lamp is of use only as It sends out light. One who hears God's Word and does not witnens for Christ Is as a lamp covered up.

3. Kinship with Je ius Christ ( tv . 19, 20). Only those who receive the message of God's Word and render glad obedience to It can claim relationship with Christ.

VI . Jssus Performing Wonders (vv. 22-40).

1. Calming the storm (vv. 22-25). Jesus fell asleep while the disciples were sailing the ship. They were overtaken by an unusual storm and were affrighted. In re-sponse to their cry of distress Jesus arose and rebuked the storm, and likewise the disciples.

2. Casting out demons (vv. 20-30). When Jesus came into the country of the (Jadarenes he was met by a demon-possessed man. Knowing their doom, the demons requested permission to enter a herd of swine. Jesus granted their request, a f te r which the herd ran violently down a steep place into the lake. The effect upon the peo-ple was such tha t they besought Jesus to depart from them. The salvation of this man from demon possession ought to have awak-ened gratitude on the par t of the people. The delivered man desired to he with the Lord. His reqnest was refused because It- was more Importtnt for him to make known to his fr iends at home the great deliverance which had come to him.

tory f r o m the Methodists several

weeks ago a t Albion, so the r e tu rn

game should be one of the best of

the season.

With two successes las t week, our record w a s boosted to a .500 percentage f o r the season. H f w -ever, all five of the victories have been recorded away f r o m home, and the home board shows two de

fea ts . won two out of six.

Albion has beeti having its share of bad breaks th is season. The Methodists lost six s t r a igh t con-ference games, and five of these have been by a very n a r r o w mar -gin. Albion extended Kalamazoo, Alma, Hillsdale and Hope, losing the four games by a total of seven

points.

F r iday ' s game should be as close

as any this season. Coach Bud D a u g h e r ^ has any th ing but a weak outfit, and Hope will have

to be a t top fo rm to win.

Role of Vivisection

Lives

as Saver of

By MAURICE B. VISSCHER

It seems t h a t the open let ter of

Clarence E. Richard, manag ing di-rector of the National Anti-Vivisec-tion society of Chicago, in The Press of J a n u a r y 30 should be an-

swered by some one with an inti-mate knowledge of the benefits which animal experimentat ion has

In the conference, we have wrought fo r mankind. Mr. Richard s ta tes t ha t " i t has

n e v e r — a n d we make this s t a t ement

advisedly—been conclusively prov-en that vivisection has contributed any discovery of importance to medicine. To my knowledge not

once has a specific claim been made for vivisection." Such a confession of ignorance might deserve noth-ing but disregard except for the fact t ha t many well-meaning peo-ple are led to believe such s ta te -

ments. The group of people who please

to style themselves "anti-vivsect-t ionists" a re of two general sor ts . The one, which is larger , comprises the uninformed sent imental is ts who mean well but are misled by the second, which is made up of un-scrupulous propagandis ts who make a comfortable or even luxurious living by. inciting many good peo-ple to agi tat ion aga ins t the g rea t -est single means of benefit to the health and progress of mankind that exists, namely, animal experi-

mentation.

have died in such a cruel w a y would1

be a sufficient just if ication f o r the humane sor t of exper imenta t ion tha t scientists employ. These meth-ods a re so much more kind a n d con-siderate of an imal pa in and feeling than those used by the so-called hu-mane societies in killing s t r a y ani-mals t ha t no unbiased person ac-

j quainted wi th t he fajCts can fai l to

recognize it.

But the discovery of insulin is

only one of many t r iumphs of science in the s t rugg le fo r the bet-terment of mankind. There are in addition t he g rea t discoveries bringing humani ty relief f r o m such scourges as diphtheria, rabies or hydrophobia, t e t a n u s or lockjaw, and many others of the same sort. Along another line a re the discov-eries as to the cause and cure of rickets and other g rea t curses of child life, all of which were actually made as a resu l t of carefu l , pains-taking and persis tent an imal ex-

perimentat ion.

I have only mentioned a few o f j the more obvious instances of ad-

a r e in f a c t a lmost innumerable ex-amples of g r ea t e r or lesser benefits direct ly t raceable to an imal experi-ments .

In the las t analysis t he question of t h e propr ie ty of an imal experi-menta t ion s immers down to the question of which is more valabble, the l ife of lower animals or human life, and. happiness. I n those ^ r m s

no person who has seen a child saved f r o m t h e clutches of t h a t demon diphtheria, no one who loves children or loves his fellow men and feels fo r the i r emotions—their agony and grief and pain—or thrills with the i r joys can fa i l to agree t ha t the use of an imals fo r such purposes is not only legi t imate bu t is really the highest use to which they could be put . Especially so since death by anesthesia is incom-parably easier than even the na t -

ural death by old age t ha t they

could anticipate.

"Land of M in ing Men"

It is un fo r tuna te tha t so many pood people have been misled by men who pretend to have informa-tion. I t is one of the objects of many scientific men nowadays who love humanity as well as animal life to inform the public at length with regard to the real fac ts about animal experimentat ion. Unfo r tun -ately scientists have too long been so absorbed in their own sphere of thought and so reticent about public s ta tements that the general public

has not had the opporunity to learn

much from them first hand. . In this brief communication I can only point out a few of the very large number of instances of enor-mous benefit to mankind f rom ani-mal experimentat ion. The first ex-ample I should like to cite is in

connection with the discovery of in-sulin as a means of saving the lives of hundreds of thousands of dia-betics in each generat ion f rom now until the end of time. The discovery of insulin would not have been made had it not been for a series of ani-mal experiments . The first, by Minkowski and von Mering almost

a century ago, showed tha t diabetes is fundamenta l ly a disease of the pancreas, wi thout which jdiscovery no one would ever have thought of t rying to ex t rac t f rom the pancreas a substance capable of keeping dia-betics in perfect health and happi-ness. But since t ha t t ime a dozen invest igators have a t tempted i t and finally Banting and Best were suc-cessful, in 1921, in ex t rac t ing a substance f r o m the pancreas which would permi t the diabetic organism to burn sugar .

They had to use animals to prove that their substance, insulin, did the thing they hoped it would do and wi thout animal exper imenta-tion their discovery would never have been made, and hundreds of thousands of diabetics now happy and well would have died a horrible l ingering death f r o m their disease. If all the animal experimentat ion ever done resulted in nothing more than the control of diabetes I be-| lieve i t would have been w o r t h , while. To save the millions of un-'
