President Dwight to tho Y.l. Seniors.

NEW HAVEN, Conn, June - A large
audience gathered at Battel Chapel At 10 so
this morning to listen to President Dwights .
baccalSureate sermon TO the Yale Seniors.
His text was |. Corinthians, xiii, S.l2. He
said in the course of his discourse
The fret thing which will impress the
careful student of the verses is the distinct
ness and earnesIness with which the partial
character of Knowledge is presented. With
force Of expression and with energy of re-
pested statements the writer declares that
all the knowledge in which the readers had
been pridine themselves was only imperfect
and half deveioped-havine no fullness
and no unclouded light id itself Their
knowing was like the child's knowing soon
to be lost in something greater. 1t was
like the seeing of a reflected image in n
mirror rather than the clear vision of the
truth. II moved in the sphere of an enigma,
whose solution is full of difficulty and ever
suggestive of possible error, and not in that
Of plainest revelation, like the seeing face
to face.
