Speech of President.
President Alderman was the next
speaker introduced by Colonel Antier-
son. The president paid a gentle
tribute to the memory of Professor
John Smith and of Professor John p.
Minor in his opening remarks, and
then related little anecdote of a
titled lady who had recently visited
the University. While walking down

alumnus??" and he replied that IAN
alumnus is the devoted son of a good
mother" Speaking of the honor sys-
TEN. DIR. Alderman said it was summed
up In one Observation-Disclosures. Tho Uni
versity of Virginia he regarded as
the most truthful place he had ever
seen, and he testified that there liars
are hated and lies more so.
Continuing, Dr. Alderman said in
part:
"A magazine has asked me recently to
tell its readers what kind of man the
University of Virginia is trying to pro-
duce. l shall try to answer that ques-
ton tonight. though l feel somewhat
who says that he knows but cannot tell.
The ideal of what a man ought to be
has shifted with the ages, conforming
itself under social pressure to the sort
Of man the age fancted it needed, but
all ages have endowed true manhood
with at least four qualities--truthfulne
courage, sympathy and purpose, Though
a man have all the learning of the school
and all the social graces. if he have not
these qualities, he is something less than
a man. And II he have these qualities,
though he walk unlettered in the valleys
Of life, he bears upon him Gods stamp
on a man and q gentleman.
First of all. then, the University of
Virginia is trying to produce truthful,
courageous. purposeful sympathetic man.
Upon these qualities as the nee
sessary soil it is trying to plant OPEN
mindedness. efficiency and responsibility.
The sort of man, then, that informs our
dreaming and nourishes our hope at the
University of Virginia, Is the truthful,
courageous. purposcfu sympathetic man,
whose eyes are open. who can do the
days work well and who does not fear
to bear burdens.
You shall not be able to deceive OF
Brighten him because his brain holds
knowledge and his hands have cunning
You shall not be able to cajole or bride

men and fear of God so firm that he will
