are to supervise the order of the room and they may be consulted by members of their class about matters not covered by the regulations In establishing selfgovern mont Mr Eaton has taken a decidedly progressive step one that means much In developing the true Idea l citizenship W S Both assemblies Wednesday were most Interesting Ethel Murphy Irma Watson and Pearl Rothschild furnished excellent music for both the senior and freshman rooms In the senior room Judge King spoke on 0I1 Educational Development and Us Relation to Christianity In stating his subject the speaker said ho believes the present cducntlonalJdcas are broader higher and deeper than thoseof the past nnd In proof of this he reviewed the ancient an-cient educational system In contrast with i ours showing that while the older system I I sys-tem fitted the Individual only as a member mem-ber of the Stale the present ono develops the Individual He turthcr showed that the present fino ideals In education are due to the Inllucnce of Christianity that It was only through the life and teachings of Christ that men first realized thp sacredness I sa-credness of life and that God Is no respecter re-specter of persons tho peasant and tho king to be judged alike The education of the past was In the uric of obedience to authority while Christs mission was t l teach the divinity of taO nnd his poWer to make his future whpt he will In clou l Ing Judge King called attention to tho fact that the discoveries of modern science sci-ence are not Incompatible with Christian belief and made an apycal to the studonta to found their lives on the teachings of Christianity since it will lend them to lie more sonorous and more charitable and make them better citizens and better members of society WhIle the upper classes were listening to so Instructive and Inspiring a talk from Judge King the freshmen were hearing one equally so Instructive upon Greek Art by Mrs Jennings After an Introduction upon the vastncss of her subject Mrs Jennings sketched for her audience the various factions that contributed con-tributed to tho excellence of Greek art namely that art was a vital part of tho dally life of the ancient Greeks that the physical character of the country combining com-bining mountain find sea lent variety to their art the climate being neither excessively ex-cessively cold nor warm gave the Greeks time and inclination to develop their artistic ar-tistic sense the country facing cast Instead In-stead of west made It easy for them to fall under Oriental Influences and thus to S get the mechanical arts from the Phoenicians Phoeni-cians the beauty of the race and the gracefulness their style of dress tended to cultivate In them a love for only perfect per-fect features and outline their polytheistic polytheis-tic religion gave opportunity for the creation crea-tion of the llncat forms lcnown to man all these were factors In making the Greeks the great artists that they were But by Greek art Is meant Athenian art find Athenian art whllo It Includes architecture sculpture and painting means the llrst two since there are no extant ex-tant paintings of the great art period The great art period was that of Pnldlaa which corresponded to the great period I I Ii of Greek history rho Parthenon which Is magnlficdnt oven In Its ruin with Its scujpturcs Is representativef this great period of Greek
