The Good Side of Life.

[From an address by Rev. DR.. Henry van
Dyke Of Princeton university to the
faculty and students OF the University
OF Pennsylvania
At present we are occupied with an cpl
demic of vice. We are considering the
evils OF social, commercial and political
life which, unless extirpated, will leave
no hope for better days in the body polite.
No man has been made well and strong
by studying his disease; no nation has
ever grown stronger by fixing public at
tention upon the things that are evil and
Of base report, even with the intention Of
destroying them. Health comes rather
from good living than disease comes from
the presence OF evil Fix your attention
upon the good. There is a contagion Of
virtue taught by Christianity. Positive
ness and companionship are two great
principles Of our creed. Let your aetec-
lions be placed upon the highest things,
not destroyed; let your desires be for the
best things; do not be without desires. As
Browning says Of Dante. HE hated wick
edness; that binders loving"
Be like Paul; he was not a cynic. There
Is many a man who thinks all good men

are dead, and he is not very well himself.
The men who think that all tire good are
dead except themselves do not feel very
well. They are saying, IAN is rotten"
There are frivolous and hysterlcal voices
crying, more evil, more calamity" sooth-
ing syrup voices saying 1T is all right
just keep on doing business at the old
stand.'
We should avoid the tar and feather
pessimist as well as the rosewater opti-
mist one tears everything down; the
other bushes everything up. We should
be with those who say no good man
shall go unhonored, no guilt shall be
unpublished, and believe that there is
much good as well as sin in the world.
Let US build up the eternal foundations Of
a positive manhood.
We hear much Of the muck-raker and
he is supposed to be uhe man who ex-
poses evils. The muck-raker of Bunyan s
Pilgrims Progress is the man who rakes
up the golden dust OF base acts, the petty
political sticks and twigs, or concentrates
all his attention upon wages instead OF
work ! think that virtue is as con-
tagious as vice. although II takes longer
