sfoner mcfarland as the speaker of the
evening He outlined the life and labors Of
St. Francis, after whom San Francisco was

I'VE call commencements the beginning
of life," the speaker said, and we should
also take the motto of st. Francis, Not by
wealth, by violence, but by Thy spirit as
our guide through life. You should not Ak
your minds toward wealth alone. The
world wants food and clothing but it also
wants human sympathy. Today the world
is rich in the matter Of gold. but education
must go higher The effort should be to
make men more intelligent and more
broadly human. Rather wealth of mind
and soul than that OF gold. You must not
have ambition alone, but a grim grip and
a bulldog courage. Learn by doing and do
not In the beginning hitch your wagon to
star"
