“Alb ‘Ireland Sweeps: to Victory Over

CAMPUS



; ____A small, bewildered. Irishman_ with his |

~ bit of green tied round his stove pipe hat

was the mascot of thé Irish, leading them
to an 8-0 defeat of Varsity, Saturday
morning, November 7, in a fast, if one-
sided game. i

Playing more in the old formation with
the fullbacks seldom éncroaching beyond
the center line, ‘the good stick work, hard
hitting, swift running, and superior en-
durance of the Irish téam soon succeeded

-in-wresting a decisive victory. from Var-

sity, despite tHe valiant -efforts of the
backs. Strongest on the defensive, the
Varsity. forwards were so closely and
forcefully guarded that their offensive was |
considerably weaker than their guarding
play. The Irish were older and had ob-

_ viously had mote experience. In contrast

to their hard decisive hitting on every pass,
the Varsity backs seemed .to play more
of a dribbling game, culminating in short-
er passes than the long half-the-field-ahead
shots of the Irish.

. Bryn Mawr got the ball in the first
quick, tense bully of the game, and W.
Dodd, ’26, with beautiful stickwork and
speed, flew down«the wing only to be
stopped by the whole weight of the oppos-
ing Irish back in a strong lunge. For the
first fifteen minutes Varsity held the
«Iskanders to no score, but they soon broke
_through and, with swift, hard passes, rush-
ed the ball to goal several times. The
Brown backs played far ahead of thém-
selves, but were powefless against the
Irish rush; W. Dodd’s continued excel-
lence was uncuccessful ih pushing | a goal
‘through.

Starting the second half with renewed
vigor, Varsity kept the Irish from scor-
ing, until the last 15 minutes. B. Loines,
28, was the heto of the half in two spec-
tacular runs from centre field, completely
eluding backs and halves, but. she was
stopped at the goal, The Irish centre
half, playing all over the field, was mar-

velous in her speed and dexterity, and}

‘intercepted mahy passes from D. Lee,
‘25, to R. Wills, ’29.

‘In a beautiful run and dribble Miss Dil-
worth, right wing, tore down. the field and

»". shot a quick goal. Using their heads

quickly, the Irish backs would pass
straight across the field to an unguarded
forward on the opposite side. In the last}
. 40 minutes two more goals were Guaten
"and the day ended 8-0.

LABOUR MOVEMENT PERFECTS
MECHANISM OF DEMOCRACY

Workmen to be Citizens in Industry,
Says Rennie Smith, Labor M. P.

“Small as members go, the English labor
movement has momentous consequences,”
said Rennie Smith, a member of Parliament
for the Labor party, a. delegate of the In-
ternational Printer’s Union, and a member of
the Workman’s . Educational Association

“Like so many other institutions and
aspects of British life, the Labor movement
is fundamentally old.. But in its relations
with the modern industrial situation, its
development is the matter of only a century.

“It has endeavored first of all to work out
the idea of political democracy. The Parlia-
ment. of today is much’ more representative
than that of a century ago. Thirty years
ago, Baldwin, sking Parliament what to
do with the nation’s mines, would have
heard only from directors and royalty
swners Today he would learn not only
their point of view, but that of the men who
have worked since childhood in the mines.
If the business of Parliament ~is to gather
up the mind of the nation in its sericus pur-
poses, the group of today is far superior to
30 years ago. It was formerly a place of
rhetoric, and is now a place of debate. Under
Toryism and Liberalism it is impossible to
get these vast changes and conflicting points
of view. Future historians will emphasize
the labor movement as improving the ma-
chinery of political democracy.

“We have become increasingly conscious
that a formal conception of freedom: is en-

srenhaeae snihity of the last 70 years,” said
M. Charles Cestre, of the Soibonne, in, the
irst of his lectures on Edwin Arlington
Robinson, given in Taylor Hall last Tuesday,
afternoon. The-new school extols American
energy and buoyancy, but there is a distrust
of old-fashioned reserve and prudence, and
they brand as un-American the standard
forms and conventions.

“Edwin Arlington Robinson belongs here
in the line of the great masters of, English
literature. One wonders if his universality
debars him from native appreciation.

“He has peculiarities which trouble his
readers. when he treats situations not his
own—the passionate utterance is not his In
the margin outside passion .his lot finds its
place. With a keen eye and a fine sympathy,
he can regard the soul in repose after the
tremor of a crisis. He walks in the steps of
the great dramatists, discovering, with per-
fect understanding of joy and sorrow, the
meaning of human felations, and of human
hopes and failures. ‘

“He found his supreme subject in Merlin.
His meditations on the forcés battling in the
human heart stood him in good stead here,
and he created a Merlin of his own. a
masterpiece unique in American poetry.
Pre-eminently a poet of human strength of «
will, and of human help!essness to avoid
calamity, he has bravely espoused the mod-
ern spirit—the spirit of observation —and
scientific curiosity.

“His early poems are distinctly Christian.
“Calvary” is a perfect sonnet, but also a
hymn where the poet’s sombre descant on
the ways of the world have the tone of the
prophetic book, or the hopeful: severity of
the Pilgrim fathers. The metaphysics of his
later poems ‘is not orthodox, but still true to
the Christian spirit. The mystery of in
tellectual growth, and the sobering of spirit-
ual experience, replaces mysticism in him.

“In Lancelot he shows color and pathos,
and passion with a glamour of romance.

“Mastery of form appears in full in him,
and the magnetic faculty of throwing con-
crete vision over things of the mind, The
common words of the language, marshalle:!
with inborn ease, assume poetical utterance’
without losing their homely familiarity.

“Humor is an essential component of his
style. In the full length: portraits of
Shakespeare and Ben Jonson, there is struck.
a quiet note of mirth that enhances the uni-
versal humanity of. both.

“From the first he has endeavored to ex-
‘press man. He eschewed none of the things
that have ever touched the human heart-
love, death, aspirations to the ideal, thwarted
ambition, stringency of wordly rivalry. His
‘htmor breeds thoughful assent or pennant
sympathy.

VARSITY peimanes TRAINING

Varsity Dramatics, the effort to produce
plays more interesting to act, direct, and
stage, and to produce them with higher
standards of acting and directing, than
under the old system of class plays, is this
year, we hope, to justify its inception. The
School for Scandal, hastily presented last
spring for the Students’ Building Drive, is
soon to be followed by Icebound, a drama of
a small New England town .of today. In4
the-spring of 1926 there will be another play.
Already one great objection to the experi-
ment has been answered. To the complaint
that parts would” be concentrated in the
upper classes, we point to the program of
Feebound: Six roles out of twelve are be-
ing taken by Sophomores, one by a grad-
uate, three by Juniors, and only two (and
‘ ’ both very small parts) by Seniors. For

the Freshmen there is Freshman Show and

‘ the spring production. Likewise on the

Scenery and Costume Committees Sopho-
mors and Juniors are in the majority.

Most important of all, the Varsity Dra
‘matic group this autumn has the privilege
of studying with Miss Robertson. Though
busy coaching the Plays and Players So-
ciety of Philadelphia, she has been so kind
as to come out to Bryn Mawr and work
tirelessly with our cast. One of the few
women directors in. New York, she brings
her knowledge and energy to the use of the
college. For her service to Varsity Dra-
matics we ate much indebted to her.

BOOKS, ATHLETICS AND ACTIVITY
LATELY WON FOR FRENCH GIRLS

M. Cestre Describes Change and
Sympathetic Plays and Novels







At a tea given by the French Club in
last Monday afternoon, M.
Charles Cestre talked about the past and
present position of the average woman in
France, and suggested several novels and
plays by such feminists as Marcel Prevost
and les freres Marguerite for further light
un the subject.

He said that there had been a great change
iv thé condition of women in France in the
last thirty years. Here in America very suc-
cessful efforts have been made to give women
But in France,
less than a generation ago, Marcel Prevost
was writing Les Lettres de Francoise to
plead a girl’s right to read,-to think, to havea
personality. Young girls could keep still, or

occasionally murmur. polite nothings. Other-.

wise nothing was expected—or wanted—of
them,

Now, living senditiias are becoming more
and more difficult. There ate too many

people in France, especially in the profes-

sions. Salaries are small as a consequence;
it is therefore necessarily allowable for
women to earn money, but even twenty years

ago, a middle class woman was ashamed of

the necessity of earning money. Ladies in
‘reduced circumstances did fine sewing at
home, and took it out to sell only under
cover of the night. Women who taught|
were -not received in society—not because
they were not appreciated, but just because
women did not work. In Les Vierges Fortes
Marcel Prevost has studied types of French
women and the effect upon them -of the
hampering conventions just described.

One would scarcely count divorce. among |
phe: beeen of the century, but, in certain



new woman is the heroine of La Fille Nou-

welle by les freres Marguerite-the story of

a girl who demands the right to spend her
own money, spends if to make an intérest-
ing life for herself, and finally marries a
man because she loves him. The faste word
in’ the triumph of young girls in France
is said in Les Nouvelles Lettres de Fran-
coise written since the war.

Now that French girls are allowed to read,

to go to the universities, to play games, to

meet men of their own age, their conditions
of living are no longer so different from the
American. Their conventions have changed,
the temperaments which observe them have
not. 2

SKIT AND DANCING ACCOMPANY
PRESENTATION OF RED BANNER

On Saturday night the Juniors gave the
Freshmen their banner. Class history was
first présented in a skit in the gymnasium.
Constance Jones, as a well ¢voluted class,
stood in” front of Eleanor Morris and
plead her case for the enefit of Kathrine
Adams, gartered and gallused as the.
shade of Mr. Bryan. She began with fresh-
man show, and Mary Dufour did the Oz
Clog. Then Mayday—Janet Seeley—
tumbled in, and was followed )by two
cyncal Morris dancers in slickers and
galoshes, Marion Leary and Carol Pratt.
That was the past history. Then this
year’s Charleston cohort clattered on,
ieaturing Minna Lee Jones, Elizabeth
Lippincott and Carol Platt, Mr. Bryan
fanned himself and collapsed—i927 was
acquited as a case for evolution.

Dancing and doughnuts followed. At
9.30 the banner was presented with the
usual ceremony, and the Freshmen were
guided down Senior row to end the eve-
ning.

CHURCH MUST CREATE SPIRIT
TO BRING ABOUT WORLD PEACE

Sacrifice National Sovereignty, Join
League, Says Rev. Speers

“Shall the sword devour forever? How
long shall it be before thou bid thy people
return from following after their breth-
ren?” This was the text of the Reverend
Guthrie Speers, assistant at the First Pres-
byterian Church, New York City speak-
ing in chapel on November 8.

“In view of the fact that this is the Sun-





.



day before Armistice Day, and that most

of us call ourselves Christians, I want to
talk to you about real religion as the only
basis for permanent peace. In 1925 A. D.,

with sad reason to know what we are talk-
ing about, we are still asking the question
‘Shall the sword devour forever?’ Do
we understand that the achievement of

“peace depends.on a fundamental change

in our own motives and purposes; and
have we enough courage to follow out
the implications of our prayer for its ac-
complishment? _

“There is no peace without -penitence.
We have tried war and found it both’
dangerous and. unprofitable. Like Abner,
who wanted peace for the time being, to
save his own skin, are our motives insin-
cere and selfish? Have we realized that

war is a sin against God in heaven, in our-

selves, and in other men? Now that we

have the instruments: of peace. at hand,|
leagues, courts, and tribunals, we have no
_| excuse. for amine that ‘destruction |





We should listen to the appeal of the
most recent plan, a united program of im-
mediate entrance of the United States into
the world court, with a provision for her
withdrawal if, after five years, a treaty has
not been ratified “extending the court’s
jurisdiction and making it compulsory. °
“But we must remember that we have’
been talking about mere instruments, the
value of which rises and falls with ‘the
sp.r.t actuating them, The task of Chris-
tians is the creation of the spirit of Christ
which will embody itself in concrete fact,
and be translated into international activ-
ity. The church must lead. the work of
making present-day institutions: an incar-.
nation of this spirit, to save us from
physical: and spiritual destruction. The
world expects this of the church. How
long shall it be till -we Christians call the

people back from following after their
brothers ?”

AMERICA’S ENTRANCE’IN THE
WORLD COURT A NECESSITY

“cetaamnronerimnics

(Courtesy of the Yale Daily News)
The political disputes over the World

confused the issue by discussion of details
that the fundamental reasons why America
should join have been too often overlooked.

That ancient institution which we call a

tion. of all civilization. It is the only device
which has been found to work to prevent
war when quarrels became acute.

Before the institution of the Court was
devised even individuals settled their dis-
putes as Cain and Abel settled theirs. When
a dispute becomes acute and cannot be
settled diplomatically, there remain just two
ways of settling it. One is to fight it out,
in which case the stronger man wins irre-
spective of the justice of his case. The other
is to referee it,; that is, to put it into the
hands of a disinterested third party, who. is
not so excited or prejudiced and who is
‘more likely to make a just decision. That
is the fundamental idea of a Court.

The first Court was the patriarch, who
kept the peace within the family. The fam-
ily was the first “peace group.” But to keep
peace within the family was not enough. As
population grew and families crowded each
other it was necessary to keep peace between
the families in order that clusters of families
might live together in a community or vil-
lage. The justice of peace, or his equivalent
in ancient civiligation, was tlie second step.

But it was not enough to keep the peace
within @ village. Inter-village war was still
possible, and in primitive regions, such as the
Philippines before the United States entered,
there was no peaceful method of settling
disputes between villages. The next step
was to cluster the villages into a State, as
Massachusetts grew from its town meetings;
and to institute State Courts to keep the
peace between communities, The next step
was to cluster the States together into a
‘nation and to settle the disputes. ‘between the
States by a Supreme Court. is

SATURDAY MORNING CLUB TEAM
DEFEATED BY SECOND VARSITY

Returning ,Aluminae Play

But Lose to College Players.

Opening the season on Saturday, No-
vember 7, Second Varsity won a 4-1: vic-

tory from the Saturday Morning Club

before the Varsity-Irish game.

- The event seemed more one of pleasure
than hard effort. Despite constant. shift-
ing and the fact that they had never before

played together, the Saturday Morning

Club guarded Second Varsity well and
kept the score down. The game was a
little ragged, however, and there was a
good deal of hard hitting on one another’s
ankles and unnecessary messing with the

ball.
J. Wiles,

26, was the star of Second

Varsity and three times flew down the
field to shoot a quick goal, running’ ap-
‘parently through her backs around whom

she cleverly dodged the ball.

For the

Saturday Morning Club, Miss Thompson
especially shone, passing well and conffffg
within an ace of goal many more times

than the one she shot.
The lineup was: *

The Saturday Morning Club—M, E.
Howe, 24, Miss Fitzpatrick, Miss Thomp-
son*, Miss Compton, Miss Myers, Miss
Newcomb, Miss Rugle, Miss Maris, M.
Woodworth, ’24, for S .Carey, '25, Miss

Plead from thé start. They eed with
tated and determination to win; their
orwards were strong on the attack and
their backs, through whom the ball rarely
slipped to the Blue forwards, seemed,
despite their excellent guarding, free for
the offensive, The Blue team seemed to
lack co-ordination.

Shooting the first goal, S. Walker, ’27,
started the Green score. In a spectaculat
run down the field, A Newhall, ’27,
brought the ball to the circle and passed
in for a shot off E. Winchester’s stick.
Repeating the manoeuvre, the Greens
continued ahead despite the good play-
ing of B. Loines, '28, the otcasional

The first half df the game played last
Wednesday between the first teams of 1926
and 1929 was undistinguishable from social
hockey. The teams wrangled amiably in a
lady like fashion in the center of the field,
seeming to lack all energy.

Great was the surprise of the onlookers
then, at the change in the second half. Poth
sides woké up, and fought heroically. On
the freshman team, Wills was one of- the
most tenacious of backs, while Freeman, de-
fended the goal with energy and skill. S
McAdoo, ’26, darted like a stag from one
end of the field to the other, keeping the
ball well ahead of her. The star of the game
was, however, E. Nichols, ’26.. Playing center
ferward, she kept her team well together,

meanwhile scoring heavily for her side in

individual play.

The score ended 6 to 1 in favor of the
Seniors,

The line-up was:

1926—J. Wiles, F. Jay,* E. Nichols,****
H, Rodgers,**E. Cushman, B. Sindall, K.
Hendrick, V. Cooke, E. Harris, S. McAdoo,
E. Musselman.

1929—B. Humphreys, C. Parker,* R. Wills,
K. McVitty, A. Dalziel, C. Swan, K. Haines,
J. Porter, K. Balch, E, Boyd, E. Freeman.

master of psychoanalysis, Supreme workman-

thought. Treating of the. seamen and mill-
hands and pines of his native New England,
Mr. Robinson is modern wih a* general
American character; American in his rest-
less self questioning haste to pursue happi-
ness. He stands astride the modern atid the

Masters. is apparant. But this sowing of
seeds was but a wayside diversion, in the
creation of these psychoepics, leavened with
quiet humor, and enhanced by their lyrical
beauty.”

Professor Cestre on Wednesday after-
noon spoke of Edwin Arlington Robinson’s
poetry of emotion and reflection, of which the
greater part is lyrical.

»ln its intensitty of feeling,” Professor
Cestre went on, “sense of beauty, and genius
for melody, his poetry is lyrical. Mr. Rob-
inson invests with harmony the substance
that’ is usually considered the sphere of
the psychologist. Although a songster in
unusual degree, he occasionally becomes
so engrossed in thoughts that he- neglects:
the order forms, and fails. to reach that
perfect balance between matter and man-
ner. He des not always remain on the
summit Jine between intellect and melody,
but who does?

“His view of man’s estate is a grave and
sombre one, even his humour is sad. He uses
Nature for his imagery and his scope is only
limited within the realm of human emotion
and activity. Mr. Robinson improves the op-
portunities given him by temperament, and
the rich field of experience. Most lyric
poetry is dominated by self. Mr. Robinson’s -
soul is in his poems: they are glowing with
emotion and sincerity.. He tells of the
vicissitudes of life and of human anguish,
but he is very little of an egoist. He writes
of some experiences of his own; many are
disillusions. Sympathy and acumen give
him an insight into the human soul.”

American critics. have been harsh with
-him. A’ little’ unjustly Professor Cestre
thinks, they consider his.motrnfulness due to
the spirit of self-repression and miss his
acuténess and artistry. He has a forceful
personality and is distinctly American in his
way, as Walt Whitman in his He sees as
clearly as any other into the Puritan precise

outlook, although they find themselves in

tellectuality: what he loses in sensuality.

“Having mastered the technique of verse.”
Professor Cestre, went on, “Mr. Robinson re-

' handling of the sonnet. He has accomplished
the feat of being original, yet keeps a con-
nection with, the cultured poets of the past.”

His poems of émotion and reflection deal
mostly with the three great lyrical subjects,
love, death and the ideal.

In 1897 at the age of twenty-eight he
published Children of the Night, which con-
tains much smooth melodic verse. Mr Rob-
inson attains ,, perfection, Professor Cestre
avers, in the sonnet and the English ballad
where his faultless design and drama are
seen, He treats of psychological scenes and
meditative thoughts. Love is not subjective
but objective when it appears Disappointed
life haunts him with its pathos.. His char-

acters may not- wail, they endure with the
fortitude of the strong. Mr. Robinson does
not indulge in mere story-telling. He never
goes into horrible or bloodcurdling details—
nor lapses into the sensational. The sad-
ness of feeling hearts, soul’s perplexities or
tumults are portrayed.

Mr. Robinson's complexity of meaning in
simplicity of phrase Professor Cestre pointed
out and explained that Mr. Robinson felt
that the effort required in interpretation
added to the reader’s joy. In the range of
poems read some slight idea of the versatility
of Mr. Robinson appeared—though in the

» man he was pre-occupied in philosophical
questions. The richness of coloring counter-
acts the didactiscism that might appear and
prevents his poetry from ever being dry or
cold.

In his later octaves and sonnets he unites
tints and the purity of sculpture with -attic
precision of style an elasticity of thought.

“Edwin. Arlington Robinson's Treatment
ot the Arthurian Legends” was the subject
of M. Charles Cestre’s third lecture of the
series on Robinson last Thursday afternoon.

“Did Robinson when writing his two
Arthurian poéms think of Walt Whitman’s
interdict?” asked M. Cestre at the start. This
will always be a matter for conjecture. At
any rate Robinson realized the value of
treading on ggound trod by Spenser and the
Victorians, ahd abstracted himself from what
had been done. As in all his poems, the
strength of Robinson’s renderings lies -in
their psychological insight and dramatic
force, which precludes neither logical in-
tensity nor sensuous opulence.

Of his two Arthurian poems, Merlin is the
least tainted. “Criticism is dissolved,” said
M. Cestre, “before the felicity, of the phrase-
ology and the imaginative creations.”

Neither Tennyson nor Swinburne equal
Robinson's vigor and depth of thought.
Tennyson’s [dylls of the King have decora-
tive grace in the plastic details, but lack the

human quality.. His “pure maidens and vir-
gin knights do well as church windows,” but
are not flesh and blood. “At temptation, they
turn aside with a shudder.” Terfnyson does
not search the human soul. Furthermore he
employs a weak, allegorical treatment, and
the epic style detracts from the charm of
the story.

M. Cestre then criticized Tennyson’s Mer-
lin and Vivian; Swinburne’s Tristram and
[seult and Robinson’s Merlin in detail, since
these three poems are comparable in subject
matter. :

Merlin and Vivian contajns no psychologi-
cal truth; Tennyson is absorbed in the con-
ventional theme of Virtue versus Vice. He
endows Vivian with no dignity, no shrewd-
ness, no reserve. Although the love scene
between Merlin and. Vivian is prettily said,
the situation remains vulgar.

In Tristram and Iseult, Swinburne does
justice to theesubject, although he wanders
a little from the track. The best parts of
the poem are glorious hymns. of passion, but
too often these are diluted by a deluge of
sweetness. Frequently the poem lacks a
sense of yneasure or even common sense.
Swinburne remains too much a slave of the
original tale. Moreover the love of Tristram
and Iseult is static. The poem ought there-
fore to have been written in one thousand
lines instead of six thousand; for static love
deserves light theatment.

Robinson, in dealing with the Arthurian
material, chose the episodes for the thoughi
and the intellectual insight into character.
These guide his symbols. Time and Fate,
rather than imagination, direct the theme.
Robinson is “the first poet to’ express the
virtualities of the Arthurian legends in sym-
bols of truth.” They rise above the average
human rather by their heroic use of intel-
lectual powers than by the use of magic as
in ,Tennyson’s rendering.

Merlin and Lancelot are human stories
giving an impression of grandeur. They are
dramatic narratives in which the externals
are subordinated and the true values brought
to the fore. The physical facts of the story
compose~ the background; while the core’ is
the inner drama, the tragedy of the cliief
characters,

Like dramas, the poems have an exposi-
tion and a denouement built up of narrative
and dialogue. But they are epics in their
rich imagery; lyrical poems in their soul
ecstacy and stormy passions; and philosophi-
cal poems in their spiritual idealism.

In Merlin, Robinson, by transmuting things
from the realm of fact to the .realm of
values, has created the essence of poetry, the
supreme achievement of the poetic mind, At

captive by peebacetncaras, and had kept
his religion.

“This was. the taaaiiag of the idea that
the prophet is a foreteller of events. The
apacalyptic writers traced the history of
|the past as if it were in the future, and so
led up to the crisis of the moment, convey-
ing the lesson ‘Stand firm. .. If -you hold
fast, this will be your last persecution.’

“The fact that language must: be used
for hone but the initiated to understand has*
made these books the happy hunting-ground
of emotional preachers. You can make a
passage mean anything on earth if you dy
vorce it from its historical content.

“Book after book of this nature was
written, going under the name of everyone: «
from Enoch to Adam and Eve. Curiously
enough, -it was the Apocalypse which gave

the, Hebrew his conception: of immortality. _
| Beéfore 300 B. © he believed that the shade

of a dead man, the nerveless shadow ‘of his
former self, descended to regions beneath
the earth, staying forever, and experienc-
ing neither pleasure nor pain. Although
the Apocalyptical writers originated the eida
of the soul’s blessed immortality with God,
they could not conceive of the survival of
personality without the resurrection of a
semi-spiritualized body.

“St. Paul is the greatest Christian that
our religion has so far produced. He real-
ized that if the Christian religion were ever
to become a world religion, it must be trans-
lated from:the Aramaic dialect which was
Christ’s’ medium of speech into a world
language. So he translated Christ’s mes-
sage into Greek, and taught his ideas as
far .east as Rome, and possibly Spain.

“At first he was convinced that the Law
contained God’s final work, that Christ was
an imposter, and tried to discourage the
new religion by torturing and imprisioning
its followers, But a bitter conflict began in
his spirit. ‘I consent to God in my inner
man, but I feel another law in my mem-
bers, warring with the law of my mind,
and bringing me into subjection.’ This cul-
minated in Paul’s vision, on the road to
Damascus, of ‘the living spirit of Christ’
After his conversion, he went into the desert
to be alone wtih God, and returned with
his philosophy of religion, a pure mysticism.
‘I live, yet no longer I, but Christ liveth in
ie.”

“Where the spirit of the Lord is, there
is liberty. ...Stand fast in the liberty where-
with Christ hath made you free, and en-
tangle yourself not again in the yoke of
bondage.’ Paul was an apostle of liberty
and also of intelligence. To the millions of
devout Christians, who conceived it their
duty to slay their reason and offer it to
God, he replied, ‘My brothers, be not chil-
dren in mind; in malice be as babes, but
in mind full-grown men.’ He realized that
this was a universal religion, not one, for
the Jews alone. ©

“Although he was not technically a clergy-
man, he founded churches in every city,














drawing from the slaves and the oppressed,
for none could transmit the vision of hope
as well as he; But when he left the
churches, often> Christians fro Jerusalem
would enter it, saying that he was an im-
poster, creating doubts as to his apostolic
state, trying to win his people back tog
formalistic réligion. In his rage ,and sor-
row at hearing that those whom he loved
were being brought back to ecclesiastical -
bondage, he dictated the Epistle to the Gal-
icians and the first letter to the Thessalon-

ians. Repudiatings any connection with the
Church of Jerusalem, he proclaimed him-
self ‘Paul, apostle not from men, neither
through human means, but thro Jesus

Christ and God who raised him from the
dead.” He set his face as flint”
