Philosopher Talks On Wisdom And Love of God Father Walter Farrell, O.P. Is Mu Nu Sigma Guest Our minds are measured by things as they are but the truths are measured by the mind of God. We are wise inso far as we approach the truth and we are never wiser than when the veil of truth is lifted by the Holy Spirit. This was the message of the Rever end Walter Farrell, O.P., author of the Companion to the Summa and holder of the degree Master of Sacred Theol ogy, in his address, The Role of Philo sophy in the Riddle of Life, to the stu dent body Oct. 28. A philosopher, said Father Farrell, is a lover of wisdom and a purser of truth. He must follow the main roads of life and find their goal. A philosopher seeks truth, admits it, but does not invent it. By his very profession he is forbidden to lose the common touch. Father Farrell emphasized that every one is a philosopher to some extent each must know what is important and what is unimportant. This is merely human wisdom. By the wisdom of the Holy Ghost, a birthright of Catholics, the heart and mind arc fixed on the first and last Truth of life God. The Reverend John W. Curran, O. P., of the Philosophy department, introduced Father Farrell, having previously pre sented the officers of the newly reor ganized Philosophy club, Mu Nu Sigma, which siwnsored the lecture. Round Table Tea Welcomes Pledges The English Round Table will wel come freshmen pledges at a tea to morrow. Arleen Johnson will review Charles Lindbergh's Of Flight and Life.

Juniors Reveal Ambitions, Oct. 26 Costumes expressed secret ambitions of junior class members at a party, Oct. 26, in the gymnasium.

It was produced by the Entertain ment committee under the direction of Mary Kay Tobin and Rosemary Benigni. Heading other committees were Mary Patricia Malloy, publicity; Mary Ann Mollohan, decorations; Rose Marie Hussey, arrangements, and Geor gette Gaumond, invitations. Tells Of Work At Marillac Center My life as a social worker unfolds as a book of service, stated Mrs. Mary Blake Finan, director of Marillac Center, in an interview, Oct. 19. following her lecture on Parlia mentary Law. A graduate of Clarke college, Mrs. Finan has worked 31 years in the Criminal Courts, and is a member of the National Council of Catholic Wo men. She has been called on by Presi dent Truman to help in solving the grave problems of juvenile delinquency in the United States. The solution to this problem is not to cure, Mrs. Finan stated, but rather to prevent juvenile delinquency in the home before it can ruin the life of a child. Love of humanity, of the poor, and above all of God is the main requisite for a social worker, believes Mrs. Fin an. One must also, she said, give unselfishly of time and service. Social work is no longer an avocation but a vocation, she concluded, saying that great love is much service. On Other Side of Desk . . . Senior Phyllis Corrigan is pictured with members of an English class at St. Gertrude's school where she does prac tice teaching. Miss Corrigan is one of 18 seniors teaching in local schools.
