Presidents Paragraphs.

The government of the United States
maintains at Washington bureau of
standards where instruments are COM
pared and adjusted. The success OF
the bureau depends upon the accuracy
of the instruments employed for meas.
uring purposes.
A college is a place where standards
of conduct, scholarship and morals are
maintained and acquired, if it is the
right kind of college.
Young people come to have their
standards adjusted; others to compare
theirs with what exists at the col
lege
Later on these young people go out
into the marts and forums Of the
world, where their standards are test
ed by use.
Some find they do not hold up to
the standard, others grow more es-
tablished in their power to determine
right and wrong.
= Once beyond the college campus the
laboratory is far away and the tie
is passed, the wait is too long for the
world to hold UP in it's work to let
those with delinquent standards bring
up their courage, morals and ability
to work to the standard they knew
before.
The roadway is strewn with broken
and inaccurate instruments, rejected
by the world as unsatisfactory
In a laboratory (thc college) peace
and quiet prevail. Standards are
known, ideals exist The careful
worker prepares for the test that is
to come while the conditions are con-
ducive.
Is. not the moral obvious?
