Message Prom The Dean HE world has admired the courage and the fortitude of the British in the World War of 1959 as it has also stood in admiration of the fortitude and courage of those peoples on the Continent whose lives have heen disordered and made harsh hy the ferocity and hrutality scarcely equalled in world history. You who are graduating in 1941 must have a similar sort of courage. Courage is not alone displayed on the hattleheld. Far greater courage is ofen required hy youth in loolcing forward toward life. You will Find that what is apparently a hopeless situ- ation may turn out to he one of your greatest hlessings when seen in its true perspective. And so as you go out, detemune to lead a lite of hard and concentrated endeavor with due consideration of your health. Emhrace cheerfully those disciplines that lead to self-mastery and power. The disciplines of loneliness, drudgery, temperance, frugality, and moderation in all things. 1 have often used the analogy of time income and husiness income, and so 1 remind you, as 1 have reminded other graduates, that the real hanlcrupts of the world are the intellectual loanltrupts who waste their most valuahle possession -' their daily time income of twenty-four hours. .O777fm1 Dean JOHN T.
