4 NORTH SHORE BREEZE 
White asked: ‘Do you accept the Apostles’ Creed?” 
Dr. Strong: I accept my own interpretation of it, 
which is all that anyone can do, 
President White: Do you accept the Bible as the 
word of God? 
Professor Strong: I accept it as the most complete 
record that we have of the revelation of God unto man. 
It is a history of the manifestation of the Holy Spirit 
unto an ancient race, which culminated in the birth, life, 
crucifixion, resurrection and spiritual in ascension of the 
most perfect man—in so far as at ever 
walked the face of earth. 
President White: Do you accept Jesus as the Son 
of God? 
Professor Strong: 
only real man. 
and fleeting. 
President White: 
son of God? 
Professor Strong: 
I do,—for spiritual man is the 
Other conceptions of man are illusory 
Do you hold that evey man is the 
I do. “Now are we sons of 
God,” says St. John, “‘and it doth not yet appear what 
we shall be; but we know that when He shall appear 
we shall be like Him.” Jesus said: “Be ye therefore 
perfect even as your Father which is in Heaven is per- 
fect.” 
President White:

Professor Strong: 
Do you believe in the resurrec- 
I do. The real man—spirit— 
The Massachusetts Veteran who struggled all his 
life and at last succeeded in removing a false entry of 
desertion against his record in the war department 
shows the value men set on a good name. It is indeed 
a hard lot to bear the name of a deserter after ren- 
dering valuable service in defense of one’s country.

can never die, Although it may seem as if man dies 
in passing through the worst phases of sin, disease and 
_ death, yet he never does die for man is God’s idea— 
» God’s reflection and image—and since God cannot die 
neither can man die. 
President White: 
the brotherhood of man? 
Professor Strong: Since Man is God’s son (im- 
age, reflection) we must all be ideas in the one Mind. 
Hence God is the One in all and we are all in One. ‘The 
sense of that relationship makes us brothers, Hence 
the injunction: ‘Thou shalt love the Lord thy God 
with all thy heart, with all thy mind, with all thy soul 
and with all thy strength. And the second command- 
ment is like unto it: Thou slialt love thy neighbor as 
thyself.” This is the true essence of the Christian reli- 
gion as I understand it. 
President White: (To the Trustees) Are there 
any further interrogations? If not, a motion 
to adjourn is in order. 
The meeting was adjourned until the following 
morning. Dr, Strong was not then present. All day 
long the trustees argued. They discussed the case from 
every possible point of view. The first vote was divid- 
ed; so was the second and the third; but the fourth 
vote was unanimous, Professor Strong was convicted _ 
of heresy and discharged. 
Will you explain your idea of 
Hetch Hetchy valley controversy if after the contest i 
made in Congress failed the ‘‘embattled’’ farmers 
fighting for their rights finally are successful in pre- 
venting the taking of this valley for a water reservoir. 
The Suffragists will fail to gain their two-thirds 
vote in the Senate,—but—the movement is gaining 
ground.

Litany 
By Mrs. Alfred Wagstaff, Jr. 
Oh, give me my utmost hour and let me die! 
Even as the golden bee in the azure sky, 
Even as the rainbow melting in one long sigh, 
Even as the passionate star that dimes with dawn, 
Even as the rose that swoons on the languid breeze. 
Even as the sunbeam, paling wan, 
God, let me be as these! 
(Oh, grant me my utmost hour and let me die!) 
Give me a rapture no mortal has ever known, 
Some scarlet joy that shall scourge my soul alone, 
Some beautiful poison from noxious regions blown, 
Some sweetness beyond all bourn, some exquisite 
pain, 
Some new mad riot of unborn ecstasies, 
Some dream that is wild and vain, 
God! why not one of these? 
(Give me a rapture no mortal has ever known!)

Oh, give me fond hours, again let me live, 
For even sad moments when passed throught life’s 
sieve 
May be lived o’er again and yet strengthen my soul ; 
Yea, come again and again before reaching the goal.

I am happy, so happy with all discovered joys, 
With the feast of love and its seeming decoys, 
With the mystery of all flowers and the songs of all 
birds, 
Oh God! let me live to utter kind words!

Why ask for new mysteries, why seek new pleasures, 
When the freest of things are nature’s best treasures? 
Let us accept Thy gifts which to some seem mere 
toys. 
God, give us wisdom to value Thy joys.
