people live at pace that kills, and
they must return to the farm or
perish. Mid apple blossoms, green
fields, meadows and shady bowers
is to be found the life of sweetest
enjoyment and the conditions 4hat
make ideal homes.
After vocal solo and encore by
Miss Agnes Watt, of Portland,
Meiggs Bartmess took the platform
and delivered the valedictory adj
dress. His theme wast Industrial
Education-the WatcEWord of To-
day." He contrasted the labora-
tories and shops of modern colleges
with the text book methods of the
past and made plealor education
along industrial lines. It is the
product of industrial hands in work
shop and farm that is the basis of
the country wealth The nations
commerce is best conserved and
promoted by the skill with which
her working men are able to bring
into their various avenues of toll.
The more successful and the more
profitable the wage of industry the
more there will be of profit for the
professional class.
A PRESIDENT MESSAGE.
A song sung with excellent ef-
| feet by the Glee Club was followed
by the address to the graduating
class, by another number by the
Ladies Chorus and the conferring
of the degrees and presentation of
diplomas by President Catch. Con-
trary. to his usual custom the pres
ident took occasion to introduce the
ceremony with a brief speech. He
told the class of the, recent visit. to
him of an insurance agent who
sought to writea policy on the edu-
cator's life. According to life in
surance figures, how long have I to
live" was the inquiry made of the
agent. The president waited while
the agent glanced down his table
of figures, and confessed to his
class that as he waited, he thought
of the story of the Three Fates.
"Six years of life is left to you,
according to life insurance tables, .
was the response, at length of the
insurance agent. "And I thought
wildly and swiftly to myself" :"
continued the president to his lis.
tening graduating class, 81 thought
what can I do in that six years that
will be Of benefit to myself and the
world? And, now as you are
about to leave these halls, I ask
you, what in the few years that you
have to live, what can each of you
do that will be beneficial to your
selves and those about you? I beg
each of you to answer the question
as I answered it to myself in the
presence of that insurance agent:
be true and lead an honorable life"
The significant utterances left a
profound impression on the mem
bers of the deeply moved graduates,
and upon those of the audience who
heard it.
The programme closed with 9TH
er vocal numbers by Miss Watt,
and the benediction, pronounced by
Rev. Mark Noble.

THEY GRADUATED.
A Class of Thirty-fYe-Another Com
mencement Day at OAC.

mencement Day at OAC.
In the present condition of society
men will not cease to go to war,
nations will not disarm, and uni
versal peace can not be expected.
War is, in many an instance the
mysterious hand with which the
architect of the universe works
out his Divine plaa for mankind.
Every great war has for its conse-
quence betterment of conditions
such as uplift down trodden peo-
pie or kindred result, and the
thunder of battle will continue to
be heard round the world. Such
in effect, is the declaration of the
speaker who delivered the address
to the graduating class at the col
lege at the commencement exercises
on Wednesday 3morning. He was
Hon. George H. Durham and in
his pronouncement above, he was
entirely out of tune with the speak
er who delivered the baccalaureate
sermon Sunday. The two orators
in their ideas of peace, war, uni
versa1 brotherhood, are as wide
apart as night and day. and after
the delivery of their respective ora
tions, the listening auditors are left
to wonder, which ifeither, is right?
The theme Of Mr.. Durham's ad-
dress was the Russo japanese war.
He espou>ed the side of neither
nation. and said that benefit would
result from the struggle for the
people of the United States, no
matter how the tide of battle went.
The stakes with Japan is her pres
tige as power, perhaps her exist
ence as a nation. Her splendid
military strategy and the mastery
strokes of her campaigning has
been in the nature of revelation
to the civilized world. Concerning
the future, the speaker ventured
no prediction.
LION AND BEAR.
Mr.. Durham told of the causes
that led up to the struggle. They
extend, he said far back into the
past. Russia has long wanted the
Bosporus in order to give conven-
lent access tor her commerce into
the Mediterranean. England has
always by diplomacy of war, con-
trived to prevent the realization OF
this cherished Russian dream. The
Crimean war, with its drawn is
sues was fought over this PROPOSE
tion. The Balkan war with its
Plevna and victory for Russian
arms, placed the prize within Rus
sia's grasp, but the diplomacy OF
England and Continental Europe
once more blocked her purpose.
The menace of England in Indian
was the czar's next resort and from
behind the lofty mountain peaks
of the Indian border, England has
steadily and watchfully bafled the
Slav monarch. If the Bear can
descend successfully in India, he
can force John Bull to forego op-
position to Russian outlet through
the Bosporus. A great game of
conquest, peaceful now but war
like mayhap at any time, is being
played between the two nations
with Russia operating from the
Caspian sea across the northern
border OF Afghanistan.

Oh Scanlan conferred the graduation
diplomas and medals upon the seven
Young ladies who finished their acd-
den1ic course, and Miss Anna Mcguire
received a gold medal for general eX-
ceIlence i'm the first years post-gradu-
atfng course. Then the Right Rev.
Bishop Seaman addressed the gradu-
ates and in the course Of a scholarly
discourse gave them much sound adj
vice He pointed out that the educd-
ton and training they had received
within those halloWed walls we're only
to fit them for the new and real life
upon which they were now about to
enter They were to remember that
happiness was the reward of goodness
and goodness was the fruit of living
up to the principles of that training
and education they had Just completed.
All men seek happiness. IL is the ma
tural tendency of the human heart. All
efforts from the cradle to the grave,
in one channel or another, are bent
in this direction-the pursuit of happl-
ness. That needed no proof expert
ence taught it, Nothing human or
finite could satisfy the human soul;
earthly possessions did not bring peace
and happiness. The human soul by It's
very nature craved the good and only
one good could satisfy that craving
God Himself. St. Augustine said:
The human soul is ever restless until
it rests. In thee alone, o God, is true
rest
To be happy, therefore, the bishop
urged, they should possess God. Was
that possible? Yes, the Good Master
said: 'Whosoever keePeth my COM
mandments, my Father shall abide in
him." And again: The kingdom of
God is within you" If their souls were
not the temples of God happiness was
impossible. Conscience was the repre-
sentative of God and constant obedi-
ence to the voice of that mysterious
monitor was the only means of Sc
curing, and having secured, maintain
ing happiness here below.

EXtremes Meet.

The significance of this old maxim is
rarely understood or its truth realized.
How do extremes of cold and heat
meet? or of confidence and no conf
dence? The extreme beginning of heat
touches the extreme ending of cold.
No confidence and too much confidence
are extremes that must be avoided.
The former deprives a man of the earn
ing capacity Of idle money. the latter
means in time, the loss of all spard
mony. Every conservative business
man adopts middle course They
