tersely expressed in the class motto.
There were a number Of grey haired
| gentlemen liz the front row of the audi
| ence, and these arresting the Bishops
attention by the evident pleasure they
found in what was going on, he asked:
"Why do the old people come TO COM
mencementS?" He answered himself.
They attend commandments and cir
cuses just to make themselves feel
young again; to mingle with the young
people and renew the feelings Of youth.
The Bishop remembered how he felt
along toward the end Of school terms.
He desired no premium as much as a
railroad ticket and his trunk. II he
could only get outside the walls OF the
school he didn't care i've cent piece
who took the honors and the prizes.
Along In April, when the thrushes be-
gan to sing, they seemed to say "Vaca-
ton is near" and later the whole tribe
of song birds seemed to sing the same
words ia concert. He had dreamed Of
the cool deep pool where be could plunge
10 aud swim TO his hearts content; he
had dreamed of the poplars whers he
could climb to the sky, and OF the
orchards to rob and the lcKings for
robbing them. he knew all the feelings
that crowd the pupils mind during the
latter days OF school.
Turning again to the young ladies'
and their motto, he said that possibly
in this generation. and surely in the
next they would be called upon to
mediate between two opposing forces
growing more violent every day. The
world is growing harder and sterner
and more grasping. There is serious
antipathy between capital and labof,
and unless some powerful yet gentle
force comes between them they are
bound to clash. The noble, educated,
Christian women may be able to avert
this crisis, and it is the duty OF the
young women OF to-day to prepare
for 1t.
