being made. byaprivate and denoanina-
tional effort. The church that does
not engage in educating and uplifting
the people has poor conception of It's
mission. The church and the school
house GO hand in hand, But individual
and denominational effort are insutfi-
cient. The State must engage in edu'
eating our children, or many of them
will grow up in ignorance.
Young men, | want to guard you
against selfishness. mo man liveth to
himself Our interests are so inter
mingled that we are united in co9nmu-
nifty, in State, in nation; and the act of
one affects the interest of all the 9TH
ers. Cultivate godly, laudahle ambi-
ton. If you want to make your inn
press on the world the sugest way is
thiss Give yoar life to humanity. No
man has ever done anything in this
world worth living for who has lived
emily for himself. And when you give
yourself 60 humanity, you not only
serve your fellow-man, your State and
your coantry, but you serve your
Maker and your Saviour.
