DR. SOARES GIVES FIRST ADDRESS
OF SOCIAL PROBLEMS COURSE
Believes Good Will Prevail
“Speaking on the belief in progress and
the part played by religion in the ultimate
triumph of good, Dr. Theodore G. Soares,
Professor of Practical Theology at the
University of Chicago, opened the World
Citizenship course on “Modern Social
Problems” in chapel Sunday evening.
“We all believe that some day it is
going. to be a good world,” said Doctor
Soares. “We believe that something can
be done to improve conditions of suffering
and evil that exist at present. The ques-
tion of how it is to be done is vitally
bound up with religion, since a belief in the
interest and aid, of God has . been the
inspiration for every great reform.”
“Picture of Progress” is the name given].
by Doctor Soares to the thirteenth chapter
of Matthew, for iti it Jesus foretells- accu-
rately the difficulties of - ‘progress. He.
points out @hat there are some people who].
do not want to know the good they ‘can
do, others whose enthusiasm dies with the
first adverse criticism, and still others whom
cares of the world entirely engross. These,
however, who once see the worth of -Chiis-|
tian living, will give, up everything else; for.
it, “and,” added Doctor Soares, “did .you
.ever hear a missionary or social ~worker
repent, such a decision ? Although: good
and evil grow up together in people as well
as in movements, the good is going to|]}
prevail because: of its intrinsic power, be-
cause men want it, because there is‘a power |
ito destroy. what stands i in its. way.”
