when In Doubt Tell the
Truth"

Mr.. Clemens, on rising to respond,
was received with cheers. He said
that he did not know what the VOW of
the faltirs was He did not care what
1t was. He made thousands of vows
There was no pleasure comparable to
making a vow in The presence of men
who appreciated 1t and admired one
for making It, There was only one
pleasure higher than that, and that
was to get outside and break that vow.
A vow was always a pledge of some
kind for the protection of ones own
or somebody else's morals. Hence
they had pledges to make them eschew
tobacco and wine, and when they were
making a pledge of that kind they felt
they could never be so happy in this
world again until they got aside and
took a drink.
He did not know anything so sad as
having to make an after dinner speech.
II the proposer said some thing severe,
if he would deride one or traduce one,
he would furnish a text, because any
one could get up and talk against that;
anybody could get up and straighten
out his own charcter. But when the
gentleman got up and merely told the
truth what could be said? 1t was diff
fcult to choose from the texts which he
had furnished. He saw present his
master in the art of Grafton of 25 years
ago-Mr. Depew-and there was also
Air. Choate. They would notice that
while those three were absentthere was
pleasing tranquility in America
building up of public confidence.
They were doing the best for their
country. He thought they had spent
their lives in serving their country and
they never served 1t to so good advan-
tage as when they were out of it.
The speaker then gave a description
of how he learned to make 'impromp-
tu" speeches-by preparing them a
week carefully beforehand, writing
them out, learning them by heart, and
afterward handing q printed copy to
the press. He would like to say one
serious word which they could carry
home to their children and the old
people who we're not able to come.
Let them take this as a legacy from
him-"When in doubt tell the truth. !"
