BRYAN'S TALLCRITICISED
COMMONER'S ARGUMENTS REAC-
TIONARY, OLD AM) DIGRESS,
SAYS ALUMNUS.
Editor, The Michigan Daily:
Mr. Bryan's sermon in 11111 audi-
torium last Sunday noon should have
been of great interest to students of
biological science, for it reproduced,
with a lifelikeness of which the speak-
er was delightfully unconscious, the
controversy (long since outworn)
which was precipitated by the ap-
pearance of Darwin's Origin of Spec-
ies. If in that day Mr Bryan had
been a dignitary of the Church of
England-a role for which he is pre-
eminently fitted-he might have been
cast for the part of the Bishop of Ox-
ford in his famous encounter with
Huxley. The words which Huxley is
said to have used on that occasion
cannot be too often quoted:. "A man
has no reason to be ashamed of hav-
ing an ape for his grandfather. If
there were an ancestor whom I should,
rfeel shame in recalling it would be a
man who plunges into scientific ques-
tions with which he has no real ac-
quaintance, only to obscure them by
an, aimless rhetoric, and distract the
attention of his hearers from the real
j point at issue by eloquent digressions
and skilled appeals tw~ religious pre-
judice."
It is well that such speakers as Mr.
-Bryan should appear now and then
before University audiences. As
Madame Tussaud's waxworks pre-
serve in visible form the fashions of
an older day, so Mr. Bryan in his ser-
mons preserves for us the fashions of
thought, the modes of argument, the
foundations of belief that satisfied the
reactionary thinkers of 60 years ago.
All of which in nowise precludes
one from admiring Mr. Bryan's obvi-
ous sincerity, unselfishness, and lov-
ing kindness-to say nothing of his
political virtues.

This picture, one of the last made by Miss Thomas be-
fore her death, has just completed a most successful run in
Detroit. Pathos and comedy go to make it a clean-cut little
romance of universal appeal.
