GREEN ACRE NOTES The regular session of the study classes of the Summer School began on July 31. This is a division of Green Acre activities, distinct from the general conferences which were held in July. It is the beginning of the fulfillment of Miss Sarah J.

Farmer's plan, that Green Acre should grad; ually evolve into a university, with its center at Monsalvat. She did not conceive a university based on sectarianism, or upon a denial of the spiritual forces in the world, but a new kind of university expressive of that exalced outlook that she possessed so remarkabls'. Most qf the universities of the world fifty years ago reflected the influence of the narrow sectarianism from which they sprang. The extraordinary developments in every field or' science have liberalized many, while others have been swept by the flood tide of the material civilization, and have lost the sense of values, without which real guidance is impossible. Miss Farmer planned a university based upon the recognition of the Oneness of God, and the Oneness of Mankind.

It's courses should deal with the spiritual reality of man, as well as with all the sciences of the present and the future, It should embody as its guiding Investigation of Reality, in every field of spiritual and material knowledge, and endeavor to assist mankind in attaining that perfect balance of the. spiritual and the material forces that characterize the perfected man. Dr. Genevieve Coy of New York has conducted the classes during the past each'morning. I She considered the remarkable of the Bab, the great teacher who began his mission in Persia, just prior to the middle of the last century, In the light of the contemporary conditions in that very backward country.

The terrifying opposition of an ignorant and fanatical clergy, the weakness of a despotic government, in which the ruling family had become a burden and a danger to the land, the extreme provincialism and ignorance of the people, all of these contributed to what has been often described the be' ginning of the greatest drama in the world's spiritual history. Step by step Dr. Coy pictured the culture, the tribal conditions, and all the varied influences, and viewpoints which joined in producing the extraordinary occurences described by many onlookers, as the beginning of a movement that because of its spiritual power, its capacity to unite peoples of different nations and religions, its 20,000 martyrs, its spirit of self sacrifice, its love for all humanity, seemed, destined to bring spiritual guidance to a world distracted by the clashes of religious bodies, and the of nations at arms. No one can read the story of these days, as described in Nobil's book the "Dawn Breakers," without realizing that in our day has come a manifestation of spiritual power that in dramatic intensity, and vividness of experience suggests the early history of Christianity. the evenings, Mr.

Saffa Kinney of New York has given four lectures on the general subject of spiritual technology. Drawing upon his vast experience as a teacher of music, and as a spiritual teacher, Mr. Kinney discussed simply and profoundly, the steps of progress of the soul in the search for truth, and the various obstacles, both inner and outer, which confront man while on this journey. If one had any doubt that people are thirsty for knowledge of realities, that doubt would vanish as he shared in these evening discussions in which youth and age joined. Blind faith is a thing of the past, but spiritual knowledge and certainty is the greatest of all gifts.

Today, the doors of explanation have opened and the mysteries of life are being revealed. It is the beginning of the new in which man will rise to his true spiritual stature. Millions of people are aware of the surging of spiritual waves, and in their hearts know that new powers are revealing themselves. These souls are the glory of mankind, they are the pure fruits on the tree of humanity. In every age, a great being, the embodiment of all divine and human virtues, becomes the magnetic center for the spiritual life of that age.

To know Him, is to attain to all good. In the" teachings' stated Mr. Kinney, is found tho key to the spiritual 'problems of this age, for this great lover of mankind has established the foundation of unity among men, and has brought assurance and life to the hearts of those who have become acquainted with his knowledge. The Youth Conference is holding its sessions during this week end, and will continue during the early part of next week. The second series in ths Summer School Courses will be on the Life of Baha'u'llah.

This series will be conducted by Prof. Stanwood Cotab, of Chevy Chase, Md. All of these studies are open to the public without fees. HEPS FOR HOUSEWIVES Think of trie Washtub Don't forget the laundry tub when you make a wash frock. Wash garments should be sturdily built so the seams won't pull out after many washings, Frilly trimmings eventually must bo For that reason the best pat: tern--if laundering is considered--is a 'simple one with few seams and joinings, says the bureau of home economics.

Taste-Tempting Appetizer Here's an appetizer to serve before a dinner party, ac afternoon tea or after an evening bridge party. Take four cakes of cream cheose, two teaspoonfuls of Worcestershire sauce, two tablespoonfuls of horse radish and a few sprigs of chives finely chopped. Mix all together and salt to taste.

Then spread thinly over crisp potato chips. This is sufficient for 12 people. Mayonnaise Too ThJolc If you do not like too thick a mayonnaise dressing, but prefer one fluffy and delicate, add whipped cream, in equal proportion to the mayonnaise. you are making: a French dressing, a piece of garlio rubbed around your salad bowl prior to mixing will give it a highly seasoned flavor without making it too strong.
