Mr. Bartholdt Of Missouri, made a point

inmate of which is found in attendance
during the next fiscal year upon any race

pool room where gambling is carried on,
or in any place where malt or spirit

We have done much In enforcing the law
alike against great and SMALL against
crimes of greed and cunning no less than
against crimes of violence and brutality.
We have wrought nightly for the peace
of righteousness, both among the nations
and in social and industrial life here at
home. Much has been done, and we are
gurding up our loins to do more.
Barren Criticism.
In all these matters there have been
some men in public life and some men In
private life whose action has been at
every point one of barren criticism or
frutless obstruction. These men have had
no part or lot in the great record OF
achievement and success; the record of
good work worthily done. Some of these
men have been college graduates; but
all of them have been poor servantt of
the people. useless where they were not
harmful. All the credit for the good thus
accomplished in the public life of this de-
cade belongs to those who have done al
flrmative work in such matters as those
| have enumerated above, and not to
those who, with more or less futlllty,
have sought to hamper and obstruct the
work that has thus been done.
"In short, you college men, he doors
rather than critics of tho deeds that 9th
ers do. Stand stoutiy for your ideals; but
keep in mind that they can only be
realized. even partially, by practical
methods of achievement. Remember al
ways that this republic of ours Is very
real democracy, and that you can only
win success by showing that you have
the right stuff in you. Tho college man,
the man of intellect and training. should
take the lead in every fight for civic and
social righteousness. He can take that
lead only If In a spirit of thoroughgoing
democracy he takes his place among his
fellows, not standing aloof from them,
but mixing with them, 80 that he may
know, may feel, may sympathize with
their hopes their ambitions, their prnci-
ples-and even their preiudices-an an

among men,.

scholars. Moreover, let the students re-
member that in the long run in the field
of study judgment must be rendered upon
the quantity of first class work produced
in the way of productive scholarship,
and that no amount of second-class work
can atone for failure in the college to
produce this first class work. A course
of study is of little worth if it tends
to deaden individual initiative and cramp
scholars so that they only work in the
ruts worn deep by many predecessors.
American scholarship will be judged, not
by the quantity of routine work pro-
duced by routine workers. but by the
small amount of first class output of
those who, in whatever branch. stand
in the first rank
