It is probably true equipment The suggestion has been made that there had been no theft at all and that the horns, uniforms, caps and music stands are still in the possession of former band members who have carelessly neglected to turn them in.

Fallowing the departure of Wimberly the Interest died, although two years ago there was a revival when a young lady faculty member who had played in the Winthrop band brought forth an alert smart playing ensemble.

F. Kettering—vice president in charge, of research of General Motors — once brought-to my attention thnt electricity was talked about as far back as 2,500 years ago. It was in 600 B. C. that a Greek philosopher, Thales of Miletus, found that by rub bing amber he could develop a force to pick up straws. Even 300 years ago experiments were made by Wil liam Gilbert in England * and. '1^ Guerecke in Germany which caused electricity to be talked about as the "coming power.” Yet nothing practi cal was attempted until Franklin flew his kite in 1746 and Faraday built his toy motor in 1826. Then came Morse with his telegraph, Bell with the tele phone, Edison with his lamp and Marconi with radio waves. It truly seems that the harnessing of spiritual waves—the seeds of In- te^ltv, ThTtTative and inspiration—Is where electricity was lOQ years ago. If so. the greatest need of the post war ear is to teach people where to find spiritual power and how to use It. (Mind you! This does not neces sarily mean describing what it is. We do not even yet know what elec tricity is. We, however, do know how ,to generate it and use it.) I The open church movement—in which I am greatly interested—is a step in this*direction. Its purpose is to get people into churches alone bv themselves not only on Sundays but at any time during the week when they feel the need for private medita tlon and prayer. ThejChristlan Science church, the New Thought associa tions, the ITnlty groups, the Dally Meditation centers at San Antonia and elsewhere and Dr. Frank N. D. Btlchman are all talking about'SpTrItu al Power and what it can do. The great need, however, is for carefully planned and executed laboratory data! which will command greater respecti than mere words. ' I Those- who have Just graduated from high schools and colleges should especially heed the thoughts 1 have presented. You may have got marks of 100 i>er cent In every subject and still be as useless as "sounding brass or a tinkling cymbal." You may well find yourself priceless watches with- out springs, 12-cylinder motors with- out gas or burglar-proof locks without- keys. In fact, I feel se strongly about thia entire matter that I believe the great est of all postwar needs is a spirituaU ’ awakening. If so, we all should make our primary task th« discovering of methods of harnessing God’s Raya which are now ail about us but prac tically unused. Then the greatest changes ahead may not be in connec- 2428 Laurel street, Columbia. He en- W eatherstrippi^ Insulation - Ci^Emg FDntnring Protex lifetime MetalStrips FV>r estimate call or write*. M.
