Science would have been unable to make this contribution to the world if man had not applied the knowledge gained in school and in life. A good 1nany years ago, Shakespeare, in You Like It, gave us this idea in three words, Unn1uzzle your wisdomf' There- fore, when you go to do your job in the world, remember that learning, as pure learning, makes very little contribution to your community, but that applied learning helps pay the debt all owe to society. if Elle that mania mnnvg, mrans sinh rnntrnt, in withnut tlyrer gnnh frivnhif' NE of the common human wants is ' money.

., ter-fx-ag L as flllamhnnh I do not ask to be Greatest of the great, To win the largest fee, Or own a king's estateg But through the passing years And all which God may plan, Laughter and care and tears, I pray to be a man. I do not ask that I , Shall never meet with care, Or see a cloud drift by XV ith only joy 1ny shareg For I would cope with doubt And storm and stress and strife, And from them fashion out A clean courageous life. I do not ask to miss All tests of care and pain, I merely ask for this: Faith for the dark and rain, Strength for the task which falls, WVisclom to know the, right, And when the curtain falls, Courage to face the right. Life is blended Whole, Mixture of joy and careg Pleasure may test the soul Deeply as hurts We bear. So through the passing years Marking off life's span, Wfhether in smiles or tears, I pray to be a man. -Edgar Guest.
