ANOTHER LECTURE TODAY The first winter session of the School of Applied Ethics opened yesterday afternoon with inaugural addresses by Prof. W. T. Harris and- Prof. Felix Adler. The hall of Columbian University filled with an audience that had only pleasure to ex- press in speaking of the occasion at its close. Prof. Samuel H. Greene, acting president of the university, presided, and on behalf of the university and the citizens of Washington gave a cordial welcome to the school. Mr. W. T. Harris, commissioner of edu- cation, delivered, watch in hand, a brief address upon the scope of ethics as a prac- tical science. His utterances were incisive, searching and earnest. He sald that the criticism was commonly made abroad on our tendencies here in America that we were trying the experiment of individual- ism too thoroughly. The individual seems to be having his chance to the disadvan- tage of institutions. which were the safe- guard of society. Yet the whole fabric of American society rested upon respect for institutions. The individual was born into an institution—the family, which was of itself a unit in society. Over and above the physical self was always the unseen moral self of the individual, which con- nected him with institutions—first the fam- lly, then the state and the church. To these institutions ethical inquiry addressed {tself, and this was the scope which would engage the attention of the School of Ethics, It would deal with those Institu- tions, which together make our civiliza- tion.’ The vicarious relation of the Indl- vidual, said the speaker, represented the greatest, the deepest thought in the ra- tional construction of the universe. It was that condition of man by which he became related to all the men in society, by which he gave up some part of himself for oth- ers and they gave some part of themselves for him. Thus in organization the human race became a unit ethically. Mr. Harris expressed great satisfaction in the coming of the School of Ethics, which had a great work before it, and welcomed it heartily on behalf of the cause of education. A Witty Welcome. Rev. Alexander Mackay-Smith spoke a few words of welcome for the clergymen of the city, saying that he hoped Washing- ton would prove a pleasant place for those interested in the School of Ethics. He had beer assured that we were equipped with all the necessary microbes and bacilli to give the spice of doubt to the situation, and it reminded him of the story he had recently heard of a naval officer who en- ‘ained a chieftain of the Cannibal nds once. Tho officer remarked to the chief, sour brother at dinner yes- terday, said the chief, “and did he taste ‘good? Boiled or roasted?” Dr. Smith ould hope that Washington would taste sweet to the School of Ethics, not- withstanding the misgivings that might arise from the situation in regard to ty- phoid dangers. He was glad the school had come to Washington, for it would be a help and encouragement to the clergymen, who were ever conscious of their blunders and shortcomings. Scope and Aim of the School. President Greene then introduced Prof. Adler, the dean of the School of Applied Ethics, who spoke at length, with the pre- cision and force of the practical scholar, on the scope and aim of the School of Applied Ethics. br Dr. is a small man, whose ad, high al strength. red, smooth, yet empha ‘The cool head and the wa one of his own phrases, describes ell. His thoughtful manner and im- pressive reasoning carried the audience with him to the end. He said the Sumner Schcol of Ethics had been opened in 181 at Plymouth because there were in the neigh- Adler w indicates a man of great is His style cf speech ec and car ‘m heart, and it was desirable to ha breezes of the sea to refr might attend and make the occasion en- jeyable. Yet, above these considerations was the historic benediction given by the idea of Plymouth, where the Puritans land- cience of the nation began. No hi considerate was the choice of Washington for the winter sessions of the schcol. Here in the capital of the natio apart from the influences of commercial ment and the pressure of w hievement In affairs of state and responsibility, honor and char- seemed to be the fitting way timely.

The aim w: chang, university the School of I nees of Co: s to assemble all the of conduct into a single institution, new science—that of applied ethi The trend of the scholarship of the into a said Prof. Adler, is toward science. The natural sciences engege the attention of our leading men in the univer and college ‘onomics, juris; e, ped: gogics, religion have all been studied with the natural and scientific of their r lations to human life.

Cool-Headed and Warm-Heartea. “We believe,” said he,“in the warm heart and cold head. Ethical passion and desire to help must go with the cool, scientific and well-balanced mind. In my opinton the science of applied ethics will gain solidity and weight by the association of science and real and practical questions. Before it has been merely a metaphysical science. I wish not to speak derogatory of it as such, but it will cease to be the berren thing as it Is confronted with prac- tical questions, It will depend no longer on ‘ipse dixits.’ Greater weight, solidity and appositeness will come from such a unlon. The cause of religion will be also greatly benefited, if those who have it at heart will more strenuously consider the prac- tical ethical questions of life. If I may be pardoned a personal allusion to individual views, in no sense representing the ideas of the school, I will say that two sentences in the book of books have been the guiding stars of my life: ‘If we would be great we must serve’ and ‘The pure in heart shail see God.’ The deep meaning of the last sclves the riddle of the unfaith of the day and points the way to a revival of spiritual life. The world is sick because it has no faith, not because of attacks of science or of skeptics. The words of the Master tell us the reason. If we were pure in heart we should see. These words, ‘pure in heart,’ have been misunderstood, have been limited in their significance as if they re- ferred merely to personal purity of the body and in the family. They cover our whole life. We must be pure in business, in politics, in our relations as employer and employe. In personal, social and eco- nemio life purity should go. Distill Into the heart that purity which leads to spirlt- ual insight.” The second meeting of the course will be given at 4:15 this afternoon in the Colum- bian University Hall by Prof. Adler, the subject being “The True Relation Between Ethics and Economics.” | of the Columbia Fire Compar = AFFAIRS IN ALEXANDRIA Work Among the Poor With the Funds at Hand. Narrow Escape From a Serious Fire in the Baptist Church—Other Local Notes. With thanks to the city council for an appropriation of from the corporation poor fund, the ladies’ relief committee is once more on its feet and able to continue the good work they have undertaken in relieving the suffering and need of the destitute and worthy poor of this city. While this amount will be of inestimable benefit to the committee, they ask that the public contributions be not stopped; rather that they be increased as much-es possible, and anything s_.t to them in the shape of money, clothing or provisions will be distributed with great care, and only to those actually in want. The severe weather during the past week has caused a number of new. and pitiful cases, which, if they could be seen by the public, would touch their very heart strings. These ladies have done a noble work, devoting almost all their time and a great deal of their means in alleviating the suffering, and, while they have received a great deal of encouragement, they are sadly in need of something more substantial. The city council did not take any action in the matter of establishing a soup house, as was hoped. Baptist Church on Fire. What would have been a disastrous fire Was narrowly averted last night by in- tuition carrying Mr. Jerry Hayden to the second floor of the Baptist Church. He was sitting in the Sunday school room - below, when, without reason, he walked up the steps to the church, and just as he opened the door saw flames shooting from the register leading from the furnace on the first floor. He immediately ran to the Columbia engine house near-by and a in the alarm, while those in the school room extinguished the flames buckets of water. The engine quickly sponded, but did not go into rvice. It was found that the floor was fire, and a large hole was cut in it and the chemical extinguisher from the truck was used to put out what remained of the fire. The damage will amount to about $75, and was covered by insurance. If the fire had had five minutes more headway there is no doubt but that the structure would have been destroyed. The Relief Concert. The concert of the Relief Hook and Lad- der Company at the Opera House last night was a grand success in every particular. ¢ The house was packed to the doors with many friends of this popular company, who, to say the léast, were not disappoint- ed. The following program was rendered in an excellent manner and every number received an encore: Manhattan Beach, Columbia Mandolin Quartet; The Blue Bells of Scotland, the Washington Philhar- monic Quartet; Sweetest Story Ever Told, contralto solo, Miss E. Simmonds; Past ; and Future, baritone solo, G.
