"Knowledge of Of Scholar," S "One cannot be a scholar without a thorough knowledge of the Old and New Testament." said Dr. J. M. Ariall, English p'ofessor, at. a gen eral Y.W.C.A. meeting at the Wade Hampton lobby on Thursday after noon. The speaker first defined litera ture as the expression c' impres sions received by men's five senses, centering about nature, man, and God. Literature, according to Doctor Ariail, is a record of a race's aspir ations, disappointments, triumphs, trials and defects. "All men have sought to put their concept of God into their litera ture," said Doctor Ariail. He then proceeded to outline the part relig ion played in the writings of peo ples. The Greeks. for example, in terwove the goodness and justice into their beautiful dramas. To the Romans God represented mainly p,erfect just ice, as shown in t heir literature. The Hebrews wrote down for posterity the idea of one God, and David added the fatherhood of the Almighty to the concept. In the Christian area the love of God found its predominant. place. Doctor Ariail impressed upon his listeners the importance of know ing thoroughly the Bible. Not only for its spiritual value ought these books be read, but also for its lit erary merits. Everywhere in the records of people, we run across quotations and allusions from the Bible. ljor centuties poets and au thors have used the word of the Old as well as the New Testament In their writings, and many stu dents today do not appreciate a great deal of beauty because they have never studied the Holy Book.

"Look For The Dog" MEH LMAN'S 1427 Me GET THAT I C THE Ci *Sandwic *ColdDi *Cigaret *School: * tuehnt Penney Speaks To Sophomore Y "Making a Better World" Is Topic "Economic freedom is that which gives an individual the right to free dom from want, care, and extra hur dens. It Is the right to happiness," says Dr. J. T. Penney, associate pro fessor of biology, in a talk before the sophomore Y at their weekly meeting May 9 In Flinn Hall. Doctor Penney's talk was the first of a new series of programs on "Making a Better World for Tomor row" featured by the sophomore Y. "Economic Freedom," the topic of Doctor Penney's speech was di rected toward the problems of 4 South Carolina-in general but Doc tor Penney made it quite clear that these same problems apply to the entire south. "Many people in the south are not guaranteed the right to earn a living and while It is true that many would not take the opportun ity if it were offered them, their children would have this chance to better themselves. Education is the main program that must he car ried out and it must be done with this generation If we are to see any results of this work." Doctor Penney went on to say that our big problem now is in fluencing the legislature In such a way that a free ballot would result, state government would give com pensation for injuries without the need for lawyers who always get half of what is given the injured man. This money is given him so that he won't he a hurden on so euei% but once the lawyer's fee is paid the workman has little left on which to live. The farm workers must he tak"n care of and it is up to the legisla. lure to work out some means for taking care of these people. The surplus of population means that I there is less ability of land produc tivity to take care of these people. "South Carolina Is primarily an agriculttral state but we must pro mote industries here so that there will he a greater opportunity for l jobs here rather than having those people who would be good for the state leave for jobs and better op. portunities elsewhere." "It is good to he independent hut if the citizens of the state would pull together, a lot more would he accomplished. Cooperation is one of the most needed factors of South Carolina." In ending his talk, Doctor Pen- " ney said t hat it was up to the yeog people of the South rather than to the elder in solving the negro ques tion. The older people are not as tolerant as the young and the young people have adoptedl an attitude 10. ward the Negroes "of giving them the proper education and then they will make worthwhile cit izens of the state and contribute greatly to ils growt h in every standpoint."
