made n stirring speech. He made a
strong plea for the smaller college. He
declared that the teaching of true de-

worth the trouble and expense if moth

college men learned to estimate their
compan ions at their true worth ana
not by superficial standards. Men also
learned to have faith in their fellows
and this was worth much. He stated
that ne had visited this year. some ~
