f COUNSEL FOR CKADUATES .
1 One reason why this is a better world than it used to be
. is because graduates of schools and colleges are leing spared
ponderous counsel from commencement orators. 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."
That's an appropriate kind of message to bring a graduate
who has been fed up With the tenors that await him in the
world. lie will meet those terrors much more becomingly
if he throws of C a sour-dough lu . t and meets them with
head up and eyes gleaming, a , . - :
ureaKing tne tics of school asst ; ijitions, trying to deter,

tions, the average graduate deserved something better when
no is given nis diploma than an overdose of verbal insulin
ine world is waiting to be conquered by tho boys and girls
coming out of the schools. That is the graduate's job. And
the job will be much belter done if assayed with a hip-h
