$12,000, and include trumpets,

“This is the second group of horns
we’ve received from the Navy in

T. Haney, Aggie Band director.
“Twenty-four are like new, and the
used clarinets are in excellent condi

and appreciate the marvelous gift.
“The Aggie Band is certainly ap

WHAT THEY NEVEB
TOLD YOU
ABOUT BLAISE PASCAL^
Who was Blaise Pascal? Most of
us know of Blaise Pascal the
mathematician, who was instru
mental in the development of
probability theory and the bino
mial theorem, Pascal the inventor
of the first calculating machine and
Pascal the physicist, discoverer of
the law of hydrostatics. Yet Blaise
Pascal revealed himself as a person
full of interest in the inner experi
ences of man; a man whose keen
insight reached the thoughts, feel
ings, and desires of people. His
writings on this subject are more
than mere abstractions; they are
concrete, filled with experiences.
Pascal himself was a fusion of the
scientist, seeking to understand
man’s outward environment, and
the man who probes into the inner
experiences of humanity, searching
out real purpose and satisfaction in
life. In his researches into the na
ture of the vacuum, he realized its
spiritual counterpart in man.
Within every hviman being he saw
an emptiness and longing for hap
piness, genuine purpose, and
something of lasting value. He de
scribed this yearning as a “Christ
shaped vacuum,’’ which only the
Person of Jesus Christ could fill. In
section VII of the Pensee, he
wrote:
“All men seek happiness. This is
without exception. Whatever dif
ferent means they employ, they all
tend to this end. The cause of some
going to war, and of others avoid
ing it, is the same desire in both,
attended with different views. The
will never takes the least step but
to this object. This is the motive of
every action of every man, even of
those who hang themselves.’
“And yet after such a great
number of years, no one without
faith has reached the point to
which all continually look. All
complain, princes and subjects,
noblemen and commoners, old and
young, strong and weak, learned
and ignorant, healthy and sick, of
all countries, all times, all ages,
and all conditions.”
“A trial so long, so continuous,
and so uniform should certainly
convince us of our inability to reach
the good by our own efforts . . .
What is it then that this inability
proclaim to us, but that there was
once in man a true happiness of
which there now remain to him
only the mark and empty trace,
which he in vain tries to fill from all
his surroundings, seeking from
things absent the help he does not
obtain in things present? But these
are all inadequate, because the in
finite abyss can only be filled by an
infinite and immutable Object,
that is to say, ofily by God Him
self.”
Nothing, he observed, among all
of God’s creation can ever replace
the Creator Himself in satisfying
the deep longings of our own
hearts.
