Meeting Of D.A.R.
"Our Declaration of Independence is
not great because it is the first expres-
'sion of the democratic theory of gov-
ernment," Prof. William A. Frayer of
the Eufopean History department
stated yesterday in his talk on "The
Foundations of Democracy" before the
meeting of the Daughters of the Amer-
ican Revolution at the home of Mrs.
Horatio J. Abbott, 820 Oxford Road.
"Rather, its 'greatness lies in its ex-
pression of current ideas in immortal
language."
Prof. Frayer traced the influences
throughout the world from 1760 ~o
1776 which led directely to the Decla-
ration of Independence, especially
stressing the ideas contained in the
writings of-the philosophers of the
eighteenth century.
That democracy is being challenged
more at the present time than at any
period since 1776, is another startling
statementmade by Prof. Frayer. "Mil-
lions of .people on the continent of
Europe at this moment believe democ-
racy to be a failure," he said. "It is
for the United States to prove that
the ideas embodied in the Declaration
of Independence can be worked out
successfully.".

The following rule was quoted from
the minutes of the board of directors
of the Women's league for April 27,
1925, and will go into effect for the
first time this semester: "It was
