SPEECH TO THE CADETS.
ANNAPOLIS, June 10sh.-The President
was heartily received In his speech to the
graduates. he said .'This is one of the two
schools supported and directed by the nation
itself, and every cadet before me has the
honor of being under the care of this nation,
and being instructed in the work imposed by
il. This is a great responsibility, and should
show you all that you should be representa-
tiyes of your nation. You have an advantage
over those who go out into the world alone.
There is no easy ground to success. thank
God for it. There is no success without you
work for it. A uniform can give you posi-
ton, but not success. In peace or war, a
trained man makes his life tell. Without
training you are launched on the sea of luck,
where thousands go down where one meets
with success. Training, with brain work, is
what will bring success. You cannot extern
porize success. It must be wrought out with
patience and work, and l know of none
which give more successful, useful advantages
than yours. The world is open to you, and
ii the naval service does not bring you sue
cess, then you are lazy or hopelessly incom-
petent. Applause. Gentlemen, as l
stand here I almost experience feel
inc of envy when I think Of the pos
sible future before you. All of US on
this stand have our characters set. There is
no curiosity about our future. Even angels
would hardly look down upon US. The very
gods, if we lived in NEUROLOGICAL times,
would look down with interest on you. You
have SO much to mold. shape and build up.
All your friends will follow you so long as
YOU work for this end. Tho profession
to which YOU belong has made this nation.
A sailor was first to give this land to you. A
sailor has crystallized the borders of the seas.
The Mediterranean was the first through
which they sailed, but it was too small for
the rising ambition of the world. Then the
Atlantic was the theater of the worlds
drama. The Pacific is yet to be opened to
you. You. gentlemen, will be the ones to
scout it. Before long you will sail through
the Isthmus to open up the Pacific. Great
applause Ihope the American navy will
be that one, just as it was the one to open the
commerce with Japan"
Secretary Hunt made speech and pre-
sented diplomas, giving two to Japanese
student One Japanese enroge did not take
a full course, but was cadet engineer.
