The church was beautifully decorated
with scarlet and black, the college COL
ors. The commencement address was
delivered by DIR. Emil G. IIirsch of Chi
cago. his subject being Culture and

DR. Hirsch also spoke OF the duty of
scholarship to take an active interest in
the affairs of life and quoted the exam

ftablished Toindee Hall in London and
thus brought the culture of oxford to
the millions of the great city. He also
spoke of the prejudices that exist be-

ii is the duty of scholarship to eradicate
these prejudices.
