SOUTH BETHLEHEM, Pa, June 8.

delivered the alumni address to the
students OF Lehigh university.
BY summoning the spirits OF some
of the mighty men OF the world. the
speaker strove To Impress upon the
students the desirability OF such
broadening education as would enable
the engineers to lead in so-called poll
tical affairs as they have been doing
In practical achievements.
He noted the almost irresistible
tendency in an age of great technical
and industrial developments beyond all
others, and to undervalue. or to not ut
all realize the value OF mental cul.
ture in any other than purely tech.
meal lines, but he declared that al
most without exception. the great men
whose names have been written large
in the history OF science. were men OF
broad culture, often as proficient In
literature and are as in the sci
ences"
He declared that men Of energy and
determination would, Of course. over
come all lack OF early advantages, but
he said general cultivation today is
SO widespread that the man who en-
tiers upon his life work with a mere
mechanical training, when he comes
in competition with men OF broad cul-
turc Is at a decided disadvantage"
Mr. Wickersham. himself Is a stu
dent OF the arts and sciences. a lin
euist and musician of rare accom-
plishments.

Love.

Properly there is only one verb Tor
love. 1t is not 'amo" 1t Is not
"aimer." 1t is not the softest Italian
verb. No printed language OF man
knows 1t. But the violin knows 1t.
and the wild bird knows 1t; even the
sea knows it. The rose is it. and the
moon is it. and the look of mans
ewes into a womans is 1t. and the look
of a woman's eyes back again Is IT.
But no man or woman can say It In
any language that endures.-"Love Let

To solve the huge problems involved irrigation and to ad
