and traditions is; almost a necessity to
anyone who would claim to be cultur-
ed and educated today. "How can we
understand modern progress," is the
way he puts it, "if we do not under-
stand the fundamentals of our civiliza-
tion? The Jews were not only the
givers of religion and ethics to the
world, but they also gave education, a
fact not generally recognized. The
Jews were the first people of the
world to have schools. And they were
the first to educate their children.
There is ample proof of this in the
Bible," and he quoted several pass-
ages.
Dr. Wolsey thinks very highly of
Michigan, and believes the new li-
brary especially a noteworthy-achieve-
mrent. He gives great credit to Pres-
ident Hutchins for having been the
important factor in its building. "Dr.
Hutchins also asked me how I Iliked
the Martha Cook dormitory. And what
do you think I said?" giving me that
look of his, with his eyes twinkling.
"I said it was - too nice, entirely
too nice!"
