lutely demoralizing, and such situa-
tion ought to be corrected by the good
sense and educational patriotism OF
those who have to do with the state
government and its schools.
The latter part of the address was
upon the subject of faith and science
He illustrated his distinction between
science and technical skill by telling g
story of the bright boy who, wher
asked who had won the battle of New
Orleans, promptly replied. "Corbett, be-
cause he was the more scientific"
Concluding, he said:
The great service of science is
not the bringing in of great inven-
tions and Improvements in our
comfort; the great function of sci
ence is to- teach us the scientific
pursuit of truth, to make clear the
laws of nature and the conse-
quences of their disobedience, to
give us the ground of reasonable
faith.
Above all, science has quickened
faith by uncovering once more to
men the simple figure and teach
ings of Jesus Christ, obscured, as
: they have been, by 20 centuries of
tradition. 1t is Christ, our elder
brother, conquering the weakness
of our humanity who gives to the
faith of science its warmth and it's
devotion.
And so there is growing. decade
by decade, in these American uni
versities a faith sincere, vital-a
faith whose ideal is obedience to
Gods laws and service to man. 1t
is a broader faith than our fathers
knew--hroad euough to include
Jew and Gentle, Catholic and Pro-
testant. bond and free-but one
that exacts no less of service and
of devotion. This faith is in the
truest and deepest sense a Chris
tian faith. and its home is in. the
university. The old forms of faith
have changed, but faith itself re-
mains. as it always must remain,
If art and science and literature are
to flourish. Let us receive this
faith in the spirit of Tennyson's
philosophy
'Cleave ever to the SUMMER side of
doubt
And cling to faith beyond the forms

himself thoroughly to the benefit of
American education, who has brought
the universities of America in close
touch with one another and has es-
tablished high standards in American
universities
Doctor Pritchett's address on "The
Spirit of the State University showed
his sympathy with the subject.
The Charter day speaker opened his
address with a discussion of the .edu
cational consciousness of the people,
which had led to the establishment of
the state universities He described
this consciousness as "a stage in the
development of the civilization of a
people in which they become conscious
of education as natural and neces-
sary activity of the state itself: they
look upon the schools which represent
education not as isolated enterprises,
but as part of one related national
effort"
AN EDUCATIONAL TRUST
In referring to the university estab
lished by the state, Doctor Pritchett
declared that it was in one sense ',an
educational trust The privately en-
dowed university, like Harvard, he re-
marked, is trust. If President Tafts
bill for a national license system should
pass it might be that Harvard would
take out a license and come under the
interstate commerce commission.
Doctor Pritchett declared that the
action of the settlers in the middle
west in the establishment of state con-
trolled universities showed marked
change in democracy from that be-
lieved in by the continental congress
In part he said:
Launched upon the uncertain sea
of politics, the university had to
educate the people of its state to
a conception of education free of
partisan politics. There are still
states in which a public opinion
capable of supporting and nurtur- :
ing. There is no higher mark of
the civilization of a state than it's
ability to conduct its university on
high place and to produce a body
of trustees equal to the govern
ment of such an institution.
OTHER SOURCES OF WEAKNESS
Other sources of weakness to which
he referred and which the state coll
leges share with other American coll
leges arise out of the competition for
numbers. Doctor Pritchett referred
more specifically to the competition be-
tween the state university and the
larly in Oregon, sparsely settled
state in which the two institutions
are only 50 miles apart. To maintain,
for example. two competing schools of
mines under such conditions is abso-

RECOGNIZES A GOOD WORK
Ex.PresIdent Roosevelt Pays Enthusi-

Hospitals.

In Uganda. Mr.. Roosevelt responded
to an invitation to open a new addi-
ton to the Mengo c. NJ. s. hospital.
Mr.. Roosevelt said:
Long before l came here had
known of the work that was being
done in Uganda. and felt particularly
anxious to see 1t. Here you have a
particularly intelligent native race.
which has already developed a very
Interesting culture of its own. a cul.
ture both political and social. And the
great work must of necessity be to try
to help that race onward. and to try
to do 1t in a practical fashion. and to
do 1t SO that the doing Of 1t shall be
primarily a benefit to the race. and.
secondly. a benefit to your own people
from whom you come.
II have the strongest feeling as to
the good that is being done by the
medical missionary. There must be
some visible fruit In the life and work
If the man who breaches II his preach
Ing is going to have very great ef-
feet upon those to whom he breaches.
That visible fruit can be shown In
many different ways. and one OF the
most efficient ways of showing 1t Is
by just such work as is being done In
connection with this building. which
1t will naturally be source OF pecu-
liar pride to myself to have my name
associated with. and which now
take pleasure in declaring to be
