DEGREES CONFERRED AT UNIVERSITY (Continued from page 1) Kntree Tr.umphale." the grand organ marcha ushered in the iiro-ctt-s.'ion of c.ip-and-gowned gradu ates and college dicnitaries. The scripture lesson was re;'d by Kev. tl K Gilbert, and invocation pro nounced by Kev. Hiram Gould. A beautiful duet. 'Calm as the Night." by Miss Ye Ona Williams and Kverett Craven, followed. Then came the commencement ad dress by Kev. J. Ii. Maree of Se attle. Mag;re- Hits Hard. The speaker professed to be only a plain Methodist minister. But the magnificent address was tbe work of a scholar and a hard hitting man of affairs, one of the Kind who radiate the spirit of op timism and helpfulness. "Life is a gold mine." said the speaker. "It is not a treasury where you can go and have some ope shovel up the treasure for yu to carry away and spend, but where you can, if you but will, dig out the unspeakable riches of humanity and divinity. "You can lose all the facts you have gained in your four years of college study in less time than it t6oi you to acquire them, if you do not continue to study. This is not au fcEd it is only a be ginning. reat Men Ixinesome. "Great men iead lonesome lives great mfii travel sad-hearted, much of their way--because they must be alone and in the advance of their fellows. That is the price !hey must pay for their leadership and independence; but the world leans on and lives. on the men who ran dare to be independent lead ers. "I like the west, because it Is a land of independence. I lar k east, one sees everywhere the signs, "John Doe & Ron,' or Smith or whatever the name may be. showing that the boy. as he grows up, leans en the father or the fuiher's ways. Out here, these family signs are far less common. The younr: man strikes out for himself. It may not always be a safe way, a sure way, but it is his own way, and that is the road to progress. The young man who s able to thank h;s father 'for what he has received health and education and a good moral her itage and ran dare to do some thing in his ow n right and name, is oing risht. Orentest niiii Remain. "The greatest things in life Have not yet been done: the greatest advances in science, tfie tTeatest discoveries in medicine, the greatest humanization in law, are still in the future. They in vite the cour.at.eous investigator. The man who will comlene the warrine 'ologies and 'opathies ot medicine, for the general good of mankind, will be one of the great-,-tt benefactors of all history. The law needs brave, unhampered men who are able to interpret human needs in human terms. Business has been heretofore a perfectly sa'e place to play; now. its out thrown spirit needs a revivifying in terms of brotherhood, that the roura; eons man can give. InK-Kjicel I'aslor O!tolct p. "There is no more a pLioe for the long-facd .pastor of older times; the pastor of today must be hungry for the friendship of man and the spirit of God. "Opportunity comes to every man.
