HERE in New Haven, or wherever Yale men have gone, for the matter of that, we hear so much and so often of “Yale spirit” that there is some little danger of the term becoming a more or less meaning- less one. Frequent usage of words that at first were the most precise and telling, almost invariably leads to a loose acceptation of their real import. In the phrase in question there is already some tendency to allow it to stand for good-feeling in general, for a sort of ideal democracy at most, with no attempt whatever to bear in mind the various con- stituent parts that give so real a value to the whole. Yale spirit, first and foremost, means loy- alty ; loyalty to the University in all respects, loyalty to one’s class, to one’s fraternity, to one’s personal friends. This loyalty at its best must continue to be, as it ever has been, at once active and passive; a loyalty of cour- tesy and kindliness as well as of hard, steady, conscientious work, with no thought of self and all thought for the best interests of Yale. _ Yale spirit implies, too, a healthy optimism and a hearty good-fellowship. It fills a man with a belief that if he does his- work well “itll be all right;’’ that “it’s a good old world, after all,’”’ with good folks in it. This is the sort of thing that makes life at Yale so sane and desirable, that wins our vic- tories, or helps us lose like men and gentle- men, and it is just this which gives to the Yale Spirit its real and lasting value. These are qualities that go to the making of the suc- cessful man—here in college and right on through life. A thorough-going loyalty and a sound optimism can only lead one way. Every mother’s son of us should uphold this spirit to the very best of his abilities, for in that way we help ourselves as well as Yale. And when undergraduate days are past we should still let that old spirit guide us. If Yale is ever to become a word to conjure by, it must be because of the potential exist- ence of “ Yale Spirit.” There is little we can do that will so clearly call into play and so thoroughly exem- plify this combination of taking things at their best and doing our best with them as will life insurance. In saying this, no point need be stretched to reacha moral, for it isa simple fact. Life insurance does not militate against optimism; it aids a man to make the most of the conditions in which he is placed by assuring him of a future provided for, and so freeing his mind for the best present effort. As for loyalty, there is nothing in all this good world that so clearly typifies it as does life insurance. Insurance, carefully chosen and conscientiously maintained, means loyalty to the best interests of one’s home, loyalty to the community, in that it will prevent added burdens to the sotiety of the future, and loyalty to one’s self-respect through the feeling that comes with it of having done our very best. Is not all this in direct harmony with that good old Yale spirit ? : The best insurance to be bought is that which bears the imprint of The Mutual Life of New York. Fifty-five years of a business life above reproach have shown that company to be all that its warmest admirers have claimed it to be. Its policies have a value that no others have, and its policy-holders enjoy a certainty of return now and protec- tion hereafter such as can come to the mem- bers of no other company. Foster in yourself the Yale spirit of your college days, and insure the future of those dependent upon you before another sun has Set. Be true to the best there is in you, and with the same spirit that prompted you to get the best out of your college life, see to it that you get the best insurance, and take in The Grand Old Mutual of New York.
