This is the time of year when boys and girls jump into the world with a feeling that they are plunging into a den of horroitf, "into a realm where solemnity displaces smiles and responsibility gives no time for relaxation.

Naturally life is a responsible existence and the wise com-j mencement counsellor does not ignore this fact, but there is a more engaging picture to present to-the graduate, : As Edward S. Martin, 'brilliant editor of "Life," onco told the graduates of an Eastern college: "So far as we can judge from what we can sec of this world, it was not meant to be more than moderately solemn. Its decorations, many of them, are gay.' Tho flowers are joyous. The birds are cheerful. No, young graduates, do not cultivato solemnity as a virtue. You will get enough of it as an incident of living."
