LEARN HISTORY, URGES BRYCE.
Real knowledge and Love of Truth
Are Needed, Says Ambassador.

LAWRENCE. Kan, April 3O--James
Bryce, ambassador from Great Britain,
delivered address here yesterday to
the students of the University of Kansas.
Mr.. Bryce urged upon his hearers the
necessity of knowing history, ancient as
we'll as modern, and said the habit of
sound, careful and independent thinking
was the best intellectual quality young
man could start with in his journey
through life.
"'Three-fourths of the mistakes that d
man makes are made because he does
not really know the thing he thinks he
Knows" declared Mr.. Bryce.
THAT and the love of truth are what a
university ought to teach. One of the
highest tributes paid to your universities
was lately pad by great German pro-
lessor, when he said that what he most
admired in them was the conscientious
ardol with which the teachers devoted
themselves to the search for truth and
the implanting zeal for 1t in their pu-
pills.
