that "In this day of modern wltch
burnlng. when freedom of thought
has been exiled from many lands,"
It la up to Harvard university and
America "to stand for freedom of the
human mind."
Ho urged the alumni:
"To pay ardent reverence to the
past but to recognize no less the dt--tinn
of the future; to understand
the philosophies we do not accept
.... ira find it difficult to
share: to account the service of man.
kind the highest ambition a man can
follow, and to know that there is no
calling so humble that It cannot be
i.tinrt with that ambition; never
to be indifferent to what may affect
our neighbors: always, as i-ienuSc
said, to put truth In the first place
and not In the second.
Reminded of Fenrs.

Cleveland was president. Now. on the
300th anniversary. I am president."
"In spite of fears Harvard, apd the
nation of which it Is a part, have
marched steadily to new and success
ful achievements, changing their
formations and their strategy to meet
new conditions: but marching always
under the old banner of freedom."
Friend In Truth.
"Behind the tumult and the shout
ing." he said at another point. Har
vard's creek Is still to "find a frlcmi
In truth."
"The truth la great and will pre
vail." he said. "For centuries that
' grand old saying has been a rock of
support for persecuted men.
"But It depends on men's tolerance,
self-restraint, and devotion to free
dom, not only for themselves, but
also for others, whether the truth
will prevail through free research,
free discussion and the free Inter
course of civilized men, or. will pre
vail only Bftcr suppression and suf
fering when none cares whether It
prevails or not."
