THE COLLEGE NEWS
Dr. Lake Discusses —
Paul’s Contemporaries
(Continued from Page Qne).
Saints to distinguish between the act-
ual experience and the explanation
of it. In the Epistle to the Romans
Paul describes what he felt himself.
He had been oppressed by a sense of
separation and guilt and when he
had become a Christian this had dis-
appeared. He explained the fact by
saying that he had had a mystical and
spiritual union with the Lord Jesus.
‘he experience is not unique; the ex-
planation is different but cognate.
Me people have the feeling that
* the more they look at life the more
it seems to be just a mass of sepa-
rate things. These people wish they
could turn around and find some uni-
ty, some place where the things seem
to meet. And with the worker, his
work is almost always outside him-
self: until he comes to some point
where they merge and he and his
work are one. There is a parallel
mysticism of the artist, the lover and
the saint. In all cases it is hard but
neceSsary to distinguish between the
actual experience and the personal
emotion which is always connected
with the explanation of the experi-
ence. Such mystical experiences do
not leave you calm; if they do not
give rise to emotion they are not real.
It is the belief that you can reverse
the process and have the emotion be-
fore the experience that has held
back progress.
The question now is, continued Dr.
Lake, how do you get this mystical
experience? Not by saying “Go to—
I will be a-mystic.” This gets you
only the fraudulent kind of mystie-
teHing whether a person is prophet
ism. The real experience comes to
people when they are not looking for
it. It is like walking beside a wall
whose door will sometimes open to
you. The door may not stay open,
but you will never forget that it has
been.
St. Paul’s sense or separation-and! 2%
emai
guilt disappeared with his conversion.
It is generally the experience of the
saint, not of the sinner, to be con-
scious of sin. And here we come to
the difficulty in doing something the
law forbids and being found out. The
cure is better laws. The meaning of
vice is doing something that is bad
for you and we are all eternally vi-
cious. Sin is seeing the good and
choosing the evil. Nearly all of
Paul’s generation had a sense of in-
adequacy which produced a theology
which the next generation interpret-
ed differently.
There have always been people who
felt that they are inspired and they
have’ never been tolerated. Even
though the exigtgnce of spirits is de-
nied by the modern psychologist, the
experience of the inspiration itself is
not denied. The pathological crimi-
nal is accounted as a throwback whose
individual life in repeating the his-
tory of the race has been arrested in
its development. “You cannot experi-
ence. bad inspiration biologically and
good—theologically,” Dr. Lake con-
cluded. We have in us the seeds of
the future as well as of the past. and
society cannot tolerate the future
either. Reason is our only guide for
or a fool and reason is not infallible.
There. is very little driving power to
reason and very: little steering power
to inspiration; life is again the nice
management of an unstable equilib-|°

Japanese Policy in Manchuria
“The Japanese policy in Manchuria
has‘ been largely copied after our pol-
icy in Latin America,” said Mr. Rob-
ert Gray Taylor, in “Some Reflec-
tions on the Oriental Situation,” de-
livered on Tuesday, February 9, in
member of the Executive Committee
and first chairman of the Joint Com-
mittee on Race Relations of the two
Philadelphia Yearly Meetings of
Friends. :
Mr. Taylor pointed out further that
the discrimination of the United
States against Japanese immigration
has been a main cause of disagree-
ment between the United States and
Japan. “The absurdity of our posi-
tion is evident when it is realized that
fewer Japanese would come in under
the quota system than come in under
the arrangement now in effect.

mendations for the situation the
