Tucsdnjv Noyember2,' 1920 DR BARBOUR DISCUSSES MORAL TREND OF LIFE Rochester Theologian Delivers In teresting Message on Second Visit Here. Combining two texts Into ono theme. Dr. Clarence A. Barbour. PrcHliloat of tlio Rochester Theological Seminar/, who wan tbo college preacher laHt Sun day. spoke on tho topic, "Tho Moral Trend of Life.” Rov. Bnrlwur's vital and Interesting messago and his man ner of deliver/ held tho attention of all those present throughout his entire ad dress. This was Dr Barbour’s second visit to Ponn State. HSs return trip was duo to the attention nnd Interest that ho attracted on his first visit here With another successful appearance at this Institution to bis credit. It Is pro bable that the Rochester president will bo asked to spoak again in the futuro at Ponn State. Dr. Barbour's main thomo was that sooner or later evory mnn finds his own place In life and returns to his onn lovol. -As a text, he chose two verses* Acts 1-20, "And they ga\o forth tholr lota, nnd the lot fell upon Mat thias, and he was numbered with tho eleven apostles", and ‘Acts 4-23, "And being Jot go, they, went to their own company, and reported all that the chief priests and elders had said unto thorn". Many illustrations woro used during his address. Pooplo resembto a piece of steel held in ono hand attractedby a magnet held in tho other Tho hand has tho power to hold tho steel from tho magnot, but ns soon as tho steel Is rolcased U flies to tho magnot In tho 1 moral trend of llfo a person, when ho is rolcased from all restraint, goes to his real llfo. He also likened man unto tho water in a canal lock Water Is pumped in so that tho boat may ent er, Then an unscon outlot Is opened and tho water sinks, seeking tho level of the water In tho noxt lock. So. man also seeks-his own level. A prisoner, whllo behind tho bars makes a resolu tion of tho life that ho will lead when once moro set freo In most cases, ho will drift Into his true standing at some time (Since it Is human naturu for n person to drift Into his own lovol of llfo and his own standards, laws nro made to bo obeyed, to try to keep pooplo good and to rostraln those who wish to dlsoboy them. Thero arc fac tors In every community which being lot go will sooner or later go to tholr own placo. In Victor Hugo's novel, "Tollors of tho Sea," Is found a character which Illustrates tho unchangeable law of a man seeking his own lovol. By many acts ho had gained a reputation for honesty in his own village At one In stance, ho returned several pennies to a storekeeper after many years be cause he had given him too much change. But suddenly ho changed Un derneath It all ho was a thief. Ho had ahvays cherished rascally Intentions. Having gained thousands illegal!), he intentionally grounded his ship While tho others escaped to tbo ehoro, bo ro malnod on board and was praised for his bravory. When all had vanished from sight.bo swam to shore nnd went ’ to an unknown country where ho'llved his truo- Ufo. In tbo samo manner, many persons bavo a good roputatlon in tholr homo town. Howovor t ho may bo judged by his actions at a large city whero ho thinks that he unknown. By the places that ho visits there ,ono may learn what kind of a man ho really Is. A mummy case ovoi live thousand years old “was recently discovered. Among other things lu It vvcie found 'some grains of Egyptian whom. These wore plumed and cnicfully cared for Even after their long confinement they grow Into Egyptian wheat. In the same mnniior a man dually does vvlmt he wishes Lu do in his hemt. Another rule developed that a man's associations determine his trend of life. A person may he Judged by the company which he keeps, if ho dis covers that his standmds uiu sinking.

B. DIETRICH Penn State 1920 Large is an Atom? re so infinitesimal that to be seen under the most power- jscope one hundred million must be grouped. The atom used to be the smallest indivisible unit of matter. When the X-Rays and radium were discovered physicists found that they were dealing with smaller things than atoms—with particles they call "electrons.” .Atoms are built up of electrons, just as the solar system is built up of sun and planets. Magnify the hydrogen atom, says Sir- Oliver Lodge, to the size of a cathedral, and an electron, in comparison, will be no bigger than a bird-shot. Not much substantial progress can be made in chemical and elec trical industries unless the-action of electrons is studied. For that reason the chemists and physicists in the Research Laboratories of the General Electric Company arc as much concerned with the very con stitution of matter as they are with the development of new inven tions. '' They use the X-Ray tube as if it were a machine-gun; for by its means electrons are shot at targets in new ways so as to reveal more about the structure of matter. As the result of such experiments, the X-Ray tube has been greatly improved and the vacuum tube, now so indispensable in radio com munication, has been developed into a kind of trigger device for guid ing electrons by radio waves. Years may thus be spent in what seems to be merely a purely "theoretical’' i/ivcsttgation. Yet nothing is so practical as a good theory. The whole structure of modem mechanical engineering is reared on Newton’s laws of gravitation and motion—■'theories stated in the form of immutable propositions. ' in the past the theories that resulted from purely scientific re search usually came from the university laboratories, whereupon the industries applied.them. The Research Laboratories of the General Electric Company conceive it as part of their task to explore the un known in the same spirit, even though there may be no immediate commercial goal in view. Sooner or later the world profits by such research in pure science. Wireless communication, for example, was accomplished largely os the result of Herz’s brilliant series of purely scientific experiments demonstrating the existence of wireless waves.
