"Our whole culture is an effect of

was the cause," qouted Dr. Albert
M. Hyma, professor of European his-
tory in the University, in his lecture
yesterday afternoon on "The Puritans
and Pilgrim Fathers." "Puritanism
is a phase of the Reformation and
Calvinism, and even of Asceticism.

The hero of aviation grinned boy-

"Henry VIII of England is said b
some to have started the Reforma

"but as a matter of fact he didn't hav

Henry never broken from the Catho
lic church. Henry got special dispen
sation from the Pope to marry h
brother's widow; then after 18 year
of seemingly contented married life
he decided he wanted a divorce, th
cause probably being his friendshi
with a new lady there, rather tha
any qualms of conscience which h
had never evidenced. The churc
refused to grant the divorce, especial
ly as it had been legitimatized b
' special dispensation, so Henry brok
away from the church and he an
his parliament secured his own di

a Protestant, so he cannot be calle
the father of the Reformation in Eng
land.
"After 1550 the Lutherans in Eng
land practically disappeared, an
most of the Protestants were Calvin
ists. 'Institutes of the Christian Re
ligion,' by John Calvili became th
favorite. It was also used as a tex
in political science in New England
The work of the Protestants who re
turned from the continent in 1558
was important. There were several
sources of Puritanism in England
among them the teachings of Wycliff
and the migration of the Puritans
from the low-lands of Holland. In
1562 many Puritans left Holland be-
cause they feared the Spanish In-
quisition. In six weeks alone over
200,000 people left, and at least half
of them went to England. These were
the Calvinists, much the same as the
Puritans.
"Holland had reached the zenith of
her power when the Pilgrims went
there, and controlled three fourths of
the European commerce. It was those
men who came to 'America that had
to establish their own homes, cities,
and laws that deserve the credit, not
the greater number who stayed in
Holland. It is only right that the
descendants of the Pilgrims should
feel a certain pride in their birth-
right," concluded Dr. Hyma.
