Quenrm SOMMERFELD HAROLD VV1LLmMs The late Senator Hoar, who was an influential potentiality in Congress, declared when he was advanced in years: The longer I live, the more I have come to value the gift of eloquence. Every American youth, if he desires for any purpose to get influence over his countrymen in an honorable way, will seek to become a good public speaker. The literary societies were fundamentally created in order that the students might have an opportunity to develop this eloquence. For this reason, each student who would become a leader should join a literary society, that he may make valuable use of every opportunity to attain poise and confidence. Page 85
