.. - -- ,,,,. if g j i if . ,-. Z Il En Ihr 0112155 nf 1912 R.ul-l. G. WELLS, in his novel, Wlwhe History of Mr. Pollyf' says of Prim: l-le was not so much a human being as a civil warf' I suppose that may be Q Ut f said of about all of us, men in the making, and not yet perfected, made clear ' i through to full manhood. It is particularly true of young men. But College men 3503x331 have, or should have, better chances than others for bringing that civil war, which they L it are to some sort of satisfactory issue. The accumulated wisdom of the past is put at their service in books and instructions to gain some insight into that warfare, and some mastery of the tactics and strategy that avails. Student activities also may help, and help much. lVlen of character in past classes have told me of the value of athletics in regulating troublesome and insistent impulses. Through the necessity to do something for their Alma lVlater, they gained self-control and self-knowledge of inherent waywardness and unexpected treacheries of passion or indolence. Herein lies the chief value, and a really great value of college sports. More men should take part in them, not only for health of body, but the sake of character. But athletics are after all a passing investment of self-knowledge and self-control. Une must take longer views. The civil was is to go on after football, baseball, and crew are out of the question. Here comes in the larger, wider, and more permanent discipline of the proper college training. When the Junior year comes to a young man, he should begin to be seriously aware of this and regulate his affairs accordingly. I can wish the men of the Class of 1912 nothing better than that, before they go out from us, they should have gained clear knowledge of the warfare they are to wage, and skill in pushing one's worst enemies within to the wall and into harmonious union with one's best friends, which are also within.
