reserved for class use and placed on the reserve shelf . . . This matter is to be considered a part of the Haverford Honor System
and every student is raponsible for its proper enforcement" The foregoing is quoted
from the By-Laws of the Students' Association Constitution.
An anomalous and undesirable situation
exists when students of an institution which
rightly prides itself upon a successful Honor
System repeatedly violate one section of this
system. Last week the Students' Council
was called on to exercise its punitive powers
upon four students who disregarded the
rights of their classmates and seriously inconvenienced the librarians by violating the
reserve book rule.
Every year the Council has to deal with
this problem. The operation of the Honor
System is dependent on the personal integrity of every Haverford student, and it is a
serious matter when some of these undergraduates fail in their responsibilities. For
violations of the letter or spirit of any portion of the Honor System seriously threaten
the existence of one of Haverford's most important institutions.
S
To the Editor of the NEWS:
The recent publicity over the resignation of
Dr. Hotson seems to have been partly a case of
exaggeration and distortion by the press. Several undergraduates quoted in the papers say
that they did not make the statements attributed
to them. Among the students, at any rate, there
has been such a thorough confusion of personalities, campus policies, and international affairs that
there is virtually no clear issue beneath the quantity of talk and feeling, and there are no sides for
most people to take with consistency.
One thing which most be made clear, however,•is that there are people on the campus who
are genuinely sorry to see Dr. 14otson leaving
Haverford.
As a teacher he was profoundly interested in
words, language, and literature, and he was unusual in demanding from his students not only
time spent in preparation but a genuine feeling
for literature and appreciation of it. It has been
a privilege to study under a scholar of his position, and by his personality as well as by his profound insight into human ;nature he has made
Shakespeare for us a humanized and living work.
Dr. Hotson has always been boundless in his
interest and friendliness toward any students who
in the least shared his interests in literature, music, or sports. There have been many to whom
No. 3 College Circle has always been open.
To on it has been a rare and valuable experience to come into contact with his vigorous personality, his fundamental sympathy and humor,
and his very powerful and active ideals,

To th Editor of the NEWS:
The answer to one of the questions posed by
Mr. Walton in last week's NEWS is easy enough.
Yes, Mr. Walton, there is "a leadership of thought
in the tradition of the beat American newspapers," as you put it. It is not a tradition of which
we may be very proud, however. Mr. Hearst has
always been a great molder of public opinion, but
it is at least debatable whether we might not be
better off if he had concentrated on medieval
cloisters.
As for the draft-versus-salvation of democracy queation, Mr. Walton's analogy is pat as far
as it vet. The army is not only choosing a football team, but, Mr. Walton to the contrary, it is
also going to teach us how to play the game. But

A TESTAMENT or DEVOTION
Harper's, 1941. $1.00
Thomas Kelly's life and his
deepest interest, devotion, are
portrayed in this book of his
writings to appear in two weeks.
•Douglas Steers has written an
illuminating biographical sketch
to introduce the book which
traces Thomas Kelly's life from
boyhood to his professorship at
Haverford. Born on a farm in
southwestern Ohio, he and his
family moved early hrhis life to
the town of Wilmington.
Fascinated by the subject of
chemistry at Wilmington College, he made it his major and
took a year of graduate work at
Haverford, 1913. After teaching
Chemistry for a short time, his
interest shifted to Philosophy.
The search for truth in this
realm became his life work.
Taking his Ph.D. at Hartford
Theological Seminary and spending fifteen months at Friends'
Center in Berlin, he returned to
teach Philosophy at Earlham.
With two years out for study at
Harvard his career at the Middle
Western College lasted until
1935, When he went to the University of Hawaii to study and
teach Oriental Philosophy. He
came to Haverford in 1936.
Douglas Steers goes on to say
that at the time of Thomaa
Kelly's visit to the Quakers of
Germany in the summer of 1938,
his life took on new warmth and
radiance and reached new depths.
His religious interests took possession of him and melted his being into one powerful whole.
Thomas Kelly wrote these essays
and teetaments of devotion during the period coming after this
trip. They are his most inspired
and intense writings.
The Eternal Now and Social
Concern, published in 1938, was
followed the next spring by the
William Penn Lecture, Holy
Obedience, delivered at Friends'
Yearly Meeting. A sequel • to
Holy Obedience, The Blessed
Community, appeared that fall.
The winter of 1939-40 saw The
Simplification of Life published
in The Friend. To develop and
expand his expression further,
Thomas Kelly planned to write a
book on devotion, The Light
Within. At the time of his death
he had written teat not completed in detail the first three chapters, which are included in this
volume.
Upon being asked to whom he
was addressing the projected
book, Thomas Kelly said, "Oh,
Presbyterians and Episcopalians
I guess' —to everyone in general.
The first section of this fragment is introductory, showing
the place and relation of "a
Light Within which illumines the
face of God and casts new shadows and new glories upon the
face of men."
If one calls to mind the Confessions of St. Augustine, The
Little Flowers of St. Francis:
The Practice of the Presence of
God by Brother Lawrence; or the
Letters by a Modern Mystic of
Frank Laubach, one can infer the
nature of those writings of
Thomas Kelly. He seeks to describe and present the life of
Holy Obedience, of love, simplicity, tmderstanding, of which we
all have some inkling. He seeks
to amplify this inkling to a conscious awareness of the values,
depths, and meanings of life
which can be had by all, if they
but take time to seek after them.
In Thomas Kelly's own words
"The value
lies in that call to
all men to the practice of orienting their entire being in inward
adoration about the springs of
immediacy and ever fresh divine
power within the secret silences
of the soul."
A Testament of Devotion has
touched the secret place of the
Most High, His insights into the
different levels of the spiritual
life and his wealth of expression
encourage us to further efforts
for a living life philosophy.

Faculty to Decide
Individual Cases
Under General Plait.
A three-point program for Slaverford in relation to those students
affected by the Selective Service
Act was formulated by the Board
of Managers at its meeting Friday.
A system was approved granting academic credit to students
drafted for military or alternative
service after investigation into
each individual case by the faculty.
This meanalaceording to President
Felix Morley, that a student &,.fted in December of his senior year
would probably receive a degree in
absentia the following June after
his case had been examined by the
faculty and after he had taken
examinations before leaving for
the service.
Full Standing Granted
President Morley also said that
a sophomore drafted at the end of
an academic year would probably
be reinstated in full standing as a
member of the junior class at the
end of his term of service. This
policy of granting credit is the
one favored by most of the colleges of the country.
The College will make no distinction between men drafted for
military service and those who as
conscientious objectors serve in
civilian Public Service Camps.
No Hard and Fast Rule
The third point in the Board%
program is that no hard and fast
rule is to be laid down which most

THEY WERE BUT GLIMPSES
The one was on the Avenue. The other was on the
Narrow Back Street. We could not prove the poverty
of one nor the, prosperity of the other.
We do not know whether the difference was due to opportunity, to environment, to accident of birth or irony
of fate.
This we do know: Deprived of income, the Ladylof the
Avenue might have been forced to the environment of
the Narrow Back Street. Given an income the Lady
of the Back Street might well have reached the Avenue.
Without money, in property or income, women or children often have to taste the dregs of life. It is our job
to keep them on the Avenue.
