Good Advice to Gradna7es
by Governor RoseypIt

Ithaca, N. y, June 20-Governor Roose-
velti today attended the class exercises
OF the class of '99 in Cornell armory. The
students received him with cheers In
h. address to the graduating class, the
governor referred to statements recent,
made by seevral men who had amassei
great fortunes to effect that collegiate
education is useless in the world OF To-
day. He attacked their position vene-
mently and said:
"Our country could better afford 10 loss
all of the men who have amassed nilliohs
than TO lose one half Of its college bred
men. We can get along without men OF
enormous wealth, but not without men
of brains"
Governor Roosevelt then discussed ,he
desirabiity Of college bred men making
themselves active in the political wcrld
He criticised the position that because
politics are corrupt, good men should shIa
them, holding that the very fact thl:
dishonesty and corruption exist should
be an incentive 10 good men actively par
ticipating and removing evils The man
who holds aloof merely because Of cor

utilized their great advantages and prov
