The yaledictory address, delivered by FRO
tessor @. g. Raue, contained the following
words OF advice to the graduating students:-
In hotels OF the latest style we or Mni invaIids &
with weak lungs and legs and which Is also eX-
ceedingly satisfactory to lazy people, | mean
the hoisting apparatus; or sit more th eaegan
rently III a snug little room, have ieisurely
crossed your legs one upon the other and before
YOU think of great many things-tingI there
You are, landed upon the second floor! LIS that
climbingp no, that is being hoistedl or elegantly
expressed--it is being elevated into higher
story without strainiDg muscle.
I'VE have also a kind of elevators in our
sciences; excellent contrivances OF modern
times; our periodicals and journals, by which
man likewise can keep himself posted in the
new events of scientific researches; can rise into
the higher stories of better information without
much trouble, If he be not too lazy to sit down
in his leisure hours to read these journals. Is
this climbing' No. that Is being hoisted; or,
more elegantly expressed, 1t is being elevated to
a higher standpoint by the labor OF others:
aspiration should lack in energy to
stride on by himself, we hope and
wish and expect that every man in this
nineteenth century, who has anything to do
with sciences should at least sit down and allow
himself to be hosted. But, gentlemen, ! wish
you would climb That is altogether different
process For we cannot really call that our
own which we have not acquired by our own
strenuous efforts. What we gain so easily, by
mere reading, remains as alluyial land, destitute
of rocky formations aninorganic accumulation;
but possesses no organic growth. 1t may swell,
but does not yield blood, sinews, and bones
You must digest; you must, by your own expe-
riments, test what others have done; and finally
bring forth the fruit of your own labor which
others may enjoy.
~ think gentlemen, your teachers have done
what they could to prepare and incline your
minds for such self-growing action. They do
not expect that you have learned by heart every
thing which medical science has already brought
to light; they have not intended to stuff you
Others but they have tried to make you
understand facts and theories; to set you
thinking of the why and wherefore
of THINGS to inspire you with love of our
glorious science; in Short they have tried to put
you on the right track, upon which, they hope,
you will move by your own steam and become
men of Independent thought and judgment,
self-thinking, self-producing Climb on, then !!
II dali aatiq of
and more internal hold, than all the other things
YOU can obtain. And this is the kind of fortune,
on to which, l hope, the tide of your lives may
carry you May you take it at the food! And
what was it that stimulated the founder
of Homeopathy to the toilsome work of his
long life This love for science What is it
that still inspires the best men of our cause with
self-sacrifcing activity? This love for science !!
Now, gentlemen although we cannot all be
kings of science-that title is already losing
ground even in politics-we can at least, each
Of us, be active citizens of the greatest and
truest republic that ever existed, or ever will
exist-the Republic of Science!
"Climb on, then, and bring your provings of
new and old remedies; haul in your observa-
tions, either confirming old experiences, or
elucidating new principles; bring forth your ex-
ber always, that to-day you have been made
members OF a society in which neither money
nor family is sign of excellence, in which you
can attain distinction only by your own exer'
I'm Cologne there is dome, the construction
of which was conceived about the year 1248
and in the completion of which are still engaged
thousands of busy hands. A still higher an(
nobler thought was conceived some seventy
years ago, in Leipsic, by Hahnemann and you
gentlemen, have enlisted tobe the propounder
of this thought, to spread it wherever you go
and to bring its blessings home to the YER
threshold of each family.
Gentlemen, you are going from US, and sooi
you will be scattered near and tar. Do not ex
pect to gather fruit where you have not SOW
seed you will succeed only In the degree i
which you work for the cause. Take this illus
tration along with you, and wherever you g
prepare the soil, and 1t cannot fail that by you
earnest and jealous endeavors homeopathy wi
come out triumphantly over all the country"
