love. not 10 hate with those who hate"
Thus spoke Matthew Henry Buckham
as president of the University of Yer

course to a graduating class and thus

osophy Of life ana sounded the keynote
of his own nature. President Buckham
delighted to love the beautiful in art
and nature with those who loved the
beautiful. lie had an inrate aesthetic
sense. which had been strengthened and
intensified by his early studies of Greek
art and character; and the fine percep-
tion of proportion and II the eternal
fitness of things which he thus de-
veloped shaped his chare cter, moulded
his thought and formulated his speech
1t thus came to pass that whenever he
spoke, his utterance stood forth COM

While the question of the policy of
the Legislature as regards saving of
time and money Is under considera-
ton. 1t should be borne in mind that
the body in question Is simply an ag-
gregation Of individuals, and that, if
bach individual does his full duty, the
Legislature as a whole will take care
OF Itself. The individual lawmaker,
no matter how retiring he may have
been UP to the present time, now has
1t in his power to make his influence
felt In the direction OF busness-like
procedure, and the disbursement Of
any influence that would delay the
