In creative irenius man shares with God,

Thought are the architects of gov
nmenta and nations. Nations are
such siu3a&thonghtsaiemaueof. There
is no investment that bring such high
rate of interest as brain capital. Wealth is
in the brain that develops the raw mater
ial. Thought changes the barbarian into
a gntleman.and makes man nearest like
God. Thought leaves its impress upon
the face and hence the importance of
right thoughts was deduced, and f orcibly.

honor than to be associated with Christ.
The sermon was a masterful one. an
inspiration to better though! a and higher

William Kdgur Stewart pronounced
the first oration, "True Patriotism,"
from U'hif.h it. wua lAnrnail that. It a vurif
nature of the formation of the world calls I
for the geographical divisions and the
formation of governments. In the love
of country we have seen many wonder
ful examples of patriotism. The speaker
gave a striking example in the story of
Leonidas holding the pass with a "few
men against hordes of enemies. In our
country e have wonderful examples.
Today thore are many things to indicate
war, arising from the spirit of interna
tional contention, and hence now we
need true patriotism. The ereatest dan.
ger now arises from the alien element
creeping into our country and the drink
naoit is a menacing danger to our ,
country. V Inch shall periau our coon-
try or rum. Ihere is also danger from
the strife between labor and cauiial : an
other danger is political corruption.!

Llhel Emily KedSeld's oration was
"Life a wnes of Opportunities." We
must take the current whrn it serves or
lose our ventarea. Life should be taken
as a series of nobie oppor unities. Life

American Public School." Tbe salatory
wa a pleaftiog and nicely expressed wel
come to the audience, words of thanks to
the I acuity and greetings 10 fellow stu
dents. This waa followed by clearly de
fined word on tle public school. It posi
tion was stated from tbe planting of the
coton ie np throogb history to the present
time. It ia the grandest of public inti
tation and wherever it ha been estab
lished crime baa fled. Tbe money spent
for tnainumiag our school ia much
better spent than in maintaining s reyal
family or taodinsr army. Tbe province
of the scbowJ and the remits of tbe dis
cipline were well outlined. Oar schools
are binding our land into one people.
There 1 a farther big field for our schools
in the education of the foreign element
coming to oar shore and tbe scum
of our big cities. Tbe public school
need conscientious teachers who have
the welfare of their fellow btieg at heart.
Zella Macd Cbocby's d:asertA' "100 was
upon the interesting topic "An Ideal

is baaed upon certain ideaa of right. As

mu.d according to it natural bent.
Every reality baa its ideal, upon which
it depends, A man is what he ia trying
to become, tome one baa said. Anything
worth raining is worth striving for. This
wa delivered in an impressive manner.
Mr. K. W. Langdon. who baa been
pleasing Albany audiiences for over fif
teen years, sang "Th Holy City," in a
manner that baa always made her vocal
solo ao popular with our f eopie.
Airaxo Mains WtLUaxa pronounced
hi oration on "Silent Force," from
which be gleaned many excellent
thought. Mind is affected by ica'ter,
matter is subordinate to mind. Energy
exists in all minds and pervades all mat
ter; Uis coexistent with God. Energy
does not stay for one moment. It most
be ceaeiet Gravitation, and chemical
action in nature In different forms are
wo-king wonders in tbe world. Meta
physicians have endeavored to locate tbe
fountain of thought. It most be traced
to silent forces that move the mind.
Silent forces work in- npon tbe mind
may work for good as ia tbe life of Clara
Barton, or lor bad as ia that of Bona
parte. Tbe story of the ocean wind and
tun working to destroy the iceberg, ac
complished ty the silent force ot tbe son,
-aa given in the UlaslrtioaoC the power.

plied in a moral wav. ;
Aarrnca Wkllkslsy Fob rat was heard
in aa able oration on "Patriotism " Two
questions have threatened to involve our
country in war. It ia well that we dis
cus these question ' Patriotism lead
a man to sacrifice bis own good for tbe
public good. We hear of patriotism in
connection with war, why not true pa
triotism in peace as well aa in war. We
need today true patriotism in our every
dav lives, in the question of labor, as
well as in the clash of arms. Our eoun
try can be saved from the great evila ot
the day only through tbe jpatriotiam of
our private citizen. Patriotism to our
ifovernment does not need to imply bat
red toother countries. Appeal to tbe
word does not settle tbe question of jus
tice, only tbe superiority of military
strength. Might no longer makes right
aad a nation must have a plausible reas
on to go to war. The principle of arbi
tration is toanded on the broadest hu
manity, and although not always possi
ble, it is yet generally practical aad
should be resorted fa. where possible.
