The Brattleboro reformer. (Brattleboro, Vt.) 1907-1912, 1908-06-19

The power of vision in the intellectual,
moral and spiritual life was shown to be
the attractive force which bring results
that can have been reached IN no other
way. Examples were cited OF men VINO
had made the most of their lives. The
secret of their power is found in the
might and height Of their vision. The
more one looks to these great personail-
ties and their unfolding life until 1t cul-
inmates in the person OF Christ, the more
incentive will be gained for ones own
upbuilding. The individual conscience
will respond to the highest, If man but
seeks the highest When man awakens
to the best in life, when he is made SEN
sible of the wrongs about him and catches
glimpse of the best character, his con-
formty to this vision, his striking out LOT
the better, is inevitable.
The vision of God is the summit. OF
power in idealism. 1t is this vision which
gives the greatest richness to life as well
as the greatest comfort and solace., Inc
ideal of faith will fill the soul with that
spirit which will be witness to truth,
to goodness, to love, becoming a growing
life Of God in the soul and of the soul
in God. A deep spiritual life depends
upon such wisdom. Happy is the person
who sees and feels God in his own lie
and that of the universe. All Of us long
for a happy career and especially these
graduates who hope for the best things
which rightly belong to young lives The n,9
noblest attest to the satisfied life Viii
be found in the larger vision of God. The
greatest JOY will come to them who cher
ish the ideal of God and who are con-
scious of the nearness of God, the rather,
in their own souls.
In closing, Mr.. Trout addressed the
graduates as follows: "My young. friends,
graduates of the Brattleboro high school
Of 1908. I should be unfaithful to my own
conception of a life full of vision, the most 1
hopeful and exalted conceptions, if | did
not congratulate you on occupying the me
place where you now stand. You VIII
have the memory Of successful hggh
school career and carry this vison with
YOU as YOU travel toward higher attain
ments in human life. Believe me, that
mastery will come in years, as you cher
ish great ideals for the mind, for the con-
science, for the soul in all your unfold
ing life. | can wish nothing better, for
YOU than that power of vision by. which
the noblest, the finest things in life will
be constantly before you, and by whose
increasing splendor you will be beckoned
on, | beg Of you to feel that life will be
always commensurate with your noblest,
most exalted and most loving vision OF
God and man. God give unto each OF you
this power of vision"
