To the Class of 1936: lf you are to -experience real happiness, it becomes quite necessary, at your age, to acquire a vitalized philosophy of living. The experimental or exploitive period of your lives, so characteristic of youth, should now be ended. What success you are to achieve, what place in the society of your fellowmen, will be determined within the next few crucial years. l advise you to weigh this matter seriously. Let me leave with you,as a guide for the planning ofyour future lives, the philoso- phy of Henry Van Dyke, brilliant American poet, expressed so vividly in the following stanza: There are four things that one must do if he f i would keep his calling , TTUSI President Leland H. Creer To think without confusion clearly, To act from honest motives purely, To love each other most sincerely, To trust in God and Heaven securely. To think without confusion clearly: to act with precision and measured judgment, to det-ermine truth from an analysis of facts as they are, To act from honest motives purely: to develop a fair and accurate appraisal of life and the purposes and functions of the society in which we live, to acquire the ideal of honest economy, to be honest with ourselves, to give liberally of our tim-e and talents in order to make life happier for others, To love each other most sincerely: to develop a feeling of appreciation and altruism toward all peoples without regard to race or creed, to exalt Humanity above the Stat-e or the Nation as the goal of social progress, to acquire a high regard for human justice and personal liberty and to become vigilant in their' defense, and, finally, To trust in God and Heaven securely: to acquire a sense of se- curity in life through the recognition in this universe of ours of the certainty of God and the magnificence of His handiwork, to b-ecome aware of the limita- tions of man and his need for divine guidance, to develop our finer and truer spiritual selves, through which channels alone can we appreciate the better things of life-these are ideals which mark the road to progress and happiness. DR. LELAND H. CREER, President
