W X I A wise man once said that nothing is permanent but that which is con- stantly changing. Our bodies continue to grow as long as we live. Some of us retard the growth of our minds because we do not continue to study and to think after we leave school. The world suffers terribly from this slothful attitude. My message to you is that you choose growth and self-control as the watchwords of your life. Holmes and Kipling' have given beautiful inspiration to this thought, in the following' lines: Build thcc mort- statcly mansions, U my soul- .Xs the- swllil so-asons rollf la-arc thy low-vaults-rl past! Let each ncw tcmple, nobler than the last, Shut theo- from he-ave-n with a domc mort- vast, 'l'ill thou at lcugth art frm-c.
