G3 rad orc! eyfnnats since it is our centurr, l am not going to disparage it. But I am going to say this: No man can understand the twentieth centurv who does not know something of the sixteenth and the fourteenth, and the third, and the een- turies ht-tore leihrist. No man has a right to live in our time and not know the times hehind him, :uw more than l have a right to live in a great his- toric house and not know something ahout the men and women who lived and made it what it is in the rears hefore. It is not for us to inherit this priceless thing which we call civilization, reared hv the sacrifice and the self-denial 'ind the agonizing struggles of our ancestors, without hearing them continuall-.4 in memory, and without constant recognition of what they have done tor us. 'lihis suhiect has so mam' sides, and to-dai' the necessitv of education, ini in the world sees it, is so pressing, the tragedies of life are so as the nz largeh' the tragedies of non-education, that it is not east' to stop when one has he-fun. llut nw share of the time of this morning is alreadv exhausted. .-Xnd tu the friends of Bradford .'Xcademi', which has so admirahlv, through so mam' decades, illustrated the great principles of education, not simply th t ainin ot the hrain hut the training of the hodv, and the training of Q' ff s - - . . the imagination, and the training of the character. I sax' vou cannot do a hetter service for vour time, or for vourselves, than to give to such an insti- tution as this rour moral support and vour greatest generosity. Nothing finer has happened these last few rears, in all this rush and storm and tide l of material prosperitv, than the immense gains which education has securet.
