Both papers will con- tain ten pages and the price of each will be ten cents. Baccalaureates, Rev. Samuel N. Crothers of Cam- bridge delivered the baccalaureate ser- mon before the Senior class of Harvard, Sunday, June 18, in Appleton Chapel. He said in part: ‘“‘“As you reach the end of. your college course, the question comes, what does it all amount to? The question has come before, but in the little world of the college it has been possible to evade it. What are you worth? Has your education fitted or unfitted you for the work which you must do? For we must frankly admit that education does sometimes unfit a man for common life without raising him to the plane of the uncommon. The requirements of this working world are simple. They are the qualities inherent in the conception of manliness. In all sorts of social service the unit is the man power, as the horse power in me- chanics. Certain human powers can be substituted for by machinery and books, but there are others that are exclusively human. Further, the kind of human power that is necessary to any worthy achievements is moral power, which guides and rules the world. There are no substitutes for common sense, patience, integrity, courage. But it is the function of edu- cation to transform a narrow and in- tolerant virtue into one that is broad and intelligent. Conscience must al- ways rule. We have a right to demand of the educated man that he shall bring to the discussion of the complex ques- tions of modern civilization, a mind so. disciplined as to bring order out of chaos. Modern life makes larger de- mands upon the individual and requires a more strenuous training; but this training is merely the bringing to the fullest perfection the manly qualities of truthfulness, courage, steadfastness and loyalty.” Rev. Dr. Henry Hopkins of Kansas City, Mo., a graduate of Williams Col- lege in the Class of Fifty-Eight, ad- dressed the Class of Ninety-Nine of Williams College in the Congregational Church of Williamstown, Sunday, June 18. At the close of his baccalaureate sermon, he said: ‘You stand upon the threshold of the twentieth century. Believe in the new age, in the better day. Be hospitable to new thoughts, to new truths. Be alert to use scientific methods and quick to utilize the best gifts to civilization. Do not be afraid of the logic of Christian love as applied to the industrial and commercial situa- tion.” The annual baccalaureate sermon of Tufts College was preached by Presi- dent Elmer H. Capen. His subject was “The Compulsion of Beneficence a Law in the Higher Life.” Rev. Charles O: Day, Yale ’72, de- livered the baccalaureate sermon at Phillips-Andover Academy, Andover, Mass., Sunday, June 18. His. subject was “The Battle of Life.” » = A Lp. a The friends of the YALE ALUMNI WEEKLY are urged to send in Summer news of themselves and other graduates for insertion in the Commencement and mid- Summer numbers. | % The Guarantee on : G Monarch SHIRTS is not all that makes them good— it’s the material in them—the way they fit—the amount of value you get for ONE DOLLAR At Your Furnisher or Clothier CLUETT, PEABODY & Co.
