To ttlhe Sons audi Danngliteirs offline Uniiversiltys |E are nearing the close of another University year. For many of you the period of preparation for your life work will end within a few weeks. Most of you have earned a period of recreation before taking up a future task. All of you will, 1 trust, go back at least for a time to home and people, for their pleasure and for yours. Wherever you go. whether homeward or elsewhere, you will stand forth as representatives of the University. By your words, by your actions, the worth of the University is going to be judged, its value to the state estimated. Had you thought of that 1 The University was created to give to the most capable youth of the state a training that should fit them to become leaders in their communities — leaders in thought, leaders in action, and examples in right living. Now. people expect return for money expended, and exactly insofar as you. the sons and daughters of the University, seem to the people of the state worthy of confidence will they give the University means to produce more men and women like you. Alma Mater loves you all; she hopes good things for every one; she will follow you with unchanging interest to the ends of the earth: she holds open her doors with a welcome that never cools: but, as you leave her for a day or forever, she begs you to remember that her honor is in your keeping. If she has but taught you the secret of the joy of life ' If you have but caught the truth that the one abiding satisfaction is the memory of help given, of duty done, of self conquered! Wealth, fame, position, pleasure — these are alluring prospects, but deep down in the bottom of the heart there is a feeling that there is something better than these. Ever since Jesus gave the world his method of inwardness and his secret of self-sacrifice, those have seen that something better who had eyes to see. To us of today the fearful war now waging brings home the same truth on a vaster scale. As science has an- nihilated time and distance, national relations have grown closer. National isolation is now no longer possible. National greatness, even national exist- ence, will now depend on the subordination of the interests of the individual to those of the community. The state must work for the common good, but the state must be supreme. In man ' s relation to the state, as in his relation to his neighbor, the eternal truth manifests itself that he who loses his life shall find it. It is to the recognition of this truth that Alma Mater calls you. It : s not an easy lesson; nay. it is the hardest lesson that man has ever had to lea.-n But it is also the noblest lesson that the mind has ever devised; it is the only lesson that shall bring the peace at last. — W J Battle
