DR LIVINGSTON’S ADDRESS.
IZ s te lla
On Friday evening. Mar. 3, thepunils
assembled in chapel had the pleasure of
listening to Dr. Livingston in his lecture,
“The Challenge of the Twentieth Cen­
tury.”
Dr. Livingston is a noted educator,
having spent many years of his life in
the work in the East, and it was indeed
a treat to all of us to hear so able a
speaker. He particularly called the at­
tention of our pupils to the grea* advan
tage to be derived by them from the
High Schools and of their free access to
Indian children.
He earnestly besought our boys to
footer their ambitions, and to strive for
the higher things in life; to go onward
and to attain to such manhood as would
fit them to become ’eaders of their race.
That his advice was attentively listen­
ed to was evidenced in the fact that some
of the boys have already expressed their
determination to enter high school after
graduating from Chemawa.
Dr. Livingston closed his lecture with
a tribute to Col. Roosevelt, who has done
so much in bringing the higher life to
the attention of the bovs and girls of
