Denou Finley Speaks I At Demonstration Three Hundred Attend i Bishop Finley Says Hatred, Greed, r Jealousy And Selfishness Cause War Nation wide anti-war demonstrations were climaxed at the University of C South Carolina by a bitter denuncia- S tion of war and all its counterparts by i, Episcopal Bishop K. C. Finley speak- b ing to a gathering of some 300 stu dents last Thursday at the Maxcey rr monument. Bishop Finley offered three alterna- c< tives to think about before consider- f< ing a war: Beware of tags and labels. Many of at the outstanding men of the country have been branded with such terms as "Reds" and "Bolshevick" such because ai they have had the courage of their con- at victions. Beware of such slogans as "one hun- u1 dred per cent American" and "Red T blooded American." In the last war b every tale we heard about the cruelty of the Germans we believed, not once stopping to think of the lies and prop- ti aganda that was floating about. h "Learn to do your own thinking," D the Bishop said. "Don't be herded la like cattle to the slaughter. Be wary it of those who are war mad. Seek s< the companionship of those who know the horrors of war and who strive G for peace." y "War is not glorious, despite what ei the moving pictures do to make it so. 1a The picture of the leader mounted ou s, a white steed, sword in air, charging it gloriously toward the enemy is a fa ble."

Magicians Fee Though Dr. Kershaw Walsh Declares M plished By Tedious Labor, Ii Waving As Po0 Commenting on the extraordinary feats of Houdini, master magician, Dr. Kershaw Walsh, associate profes sor of psychology, said yesterday that thost of the magician's famous tricks had been solved but, "that does not mean anyone can do the things Hou dini did.'' Doctor Walsh pointed out that the feats of the most famous magician the world has ever known were accom plished mainly by tedious labor. For instance, one of Houdini's I)et tasks was performed by the magician un tying rope knots with his toes. "I once saw Houdini make an es cape from a straight jacket suspended from a skyscraper," iDoctor Walsh said.

Mrs. Moon has urged students to take advantage of this opportunity, for if they fie their applications nowv, accounts can be set up in Washing ton, and cards will be sent to them. Thus, when they go to work, they can turn their cards over to their employer and immediately receive ben efits. The post office in Columbia is co operating with the University in get ting this done, and the blanks which have been distributed to students should be returned to Mrs. Moon so they can be mailed to Washington.

They came at the invitation of President J. Rion Mc Kissick and they brought exactly 45 more hungry mouths than the culi nary staff had anticipated. It was all right, though, for the cafeteria crew managed to feed them all, and then the visitors wanted to see the campus. See it they did, guided by obliging members of Kappa Sigma Kappa and Alpha Kappa Gamma, service organ izations at the University. They had the whole afternoon to wander around, and see what makes. Carolina tick. Of course, some of them wandered down town too, but by 4:15 the busses were filling up for the return trip to Greenville. J. M. Lesesne, their history teacher, had been definite about that-the busses ulled out at 4:30. And pull out they lid-after Lesesne had made a half hicarted attempt to count noses and lecide that everyone was accounted for. This should be the end of the story, )ut wait-there's a sequel. Half an hour later Mrs. Arney R. Childs, dean Jf women, was strolling around the :ampus when she spied two sweet young things, brows unforrowed, like vise blithely strolling. Seeing them for what they were, virs. Childs approached them. In the nterview that followed, the following oints were established: (1) that the girls had been window ;hopping down town; (2) that they lid not remember what time the busses vere supposed to leave, and, there ore, (3) that the fact that it was now made no impression on them. Mrs. Childs took charge of the babes n the city and called one girl's father. EIe made several remarks, but those nost to the point were, would Mrs. Thilds please lend the girls bus fare Lnd start them home? This the kindly lean promised to do, and again our tory should be at an end. But the hird act follows.
