NTEB-FRAT THINKING PROBABLY MOST UNPOPULAR INDOOR SPORT Miss Wygal, the traveling secretary for the state universities, was the speaker at Vespers, Tuesday. She said that thinking was probably one of the most unpopular indoor sports but nevertheless she was going to think out loud with her audience Her theme was the effort people make to find satisfaction in life. She used as illustrations, five popular novels of the year. In each, the hero was looking for the good things in life. Service, she brought out, was the true satisfaction that people get from living. Miss Wygal suggested that Bervice is empty and ineffectual un less it comes as the result of Intense enthusiasm for God. Miss Jane Adams, the greate settlement worker and founder of Hull House heartily endorsed this idea. She said that If she had her life to live over again, she would base her work entirely on religion. She said that all social service must be based upon this or it is not true social service. For the sake of service, Edith Cavell stood up and was shot, while a Red Cross nurse in devastated Europe. She was a student of Jesus and her books were marked with worshipful passages.
