Live Long Without Food.

Carton eating birds. such as the
eagle and vulture, are. able to live a
long time without food. while some
species OF sea birds have been known
to go without food as long as ri days.
Certain species of birds, living on
their own fat, have been known to ex-
list for two months without a morsel
Of food. From these facts naturalists
have drawn the conclusion that all the
famine-proof birds have a distinct ad-
vantage over the weaker varieties in
the race for life in the wild.

OUT OF THE PAST.

give her progress. We are not to be
bound by the traditions of the past.
Traditions are not manacles to bind
US, but are harness for us to use in
the forward movement There Is no
more reason why the counsels which
are appropriate in the beginning OF
the nineteenth century should bind
us in the beginning OF the twentieth
than why the creeds that were the
best thought of the seventeenth CEN
fury should bind us in the nine
teenth. We must do our own think
ing, and guide our own ship by our
own wisdom. But We must not break
away from the past, and We must
learn how to develop the future out
OF the past.
And the nation has right, young
men, to look to a great university
like this, and to the young men who
are coming forth from this university,
to guide ii in the progress OF the
future. IL has right to look to you
to tell the nation what shall be in
the larger life that lies before II. The
country needs leaders. II needs them
sadly. 1t Is glad to welcome them
so glad that il takes them, not in
frequently, without asking whence
they have come or whittier they lead.
You have eternity before you. Be.
gin. not from an imaginary past, 20
which you can never go back; not
from an imaginary future which you
have not reached. Begin from the
present, with all its treasury of good
AYE, with all its treasury Of evil.
And, keeping the pathway unbroken
from the past TO the future, lead on
to life, to larger life and yet larger
life, answering the call of Him whose
call is ever upwards.
The Detroit times., 1911-01-18

National history abundantly Illus
trates the truth Of the proposition
that movement il not progress.
Spain was anchored to the past; she
was bound by her own traditions;
she knew no progress. Spain had
nineteenth century guns and six
teenth century men behind them; We
know what came On the other hand,
France broke with her past, cut
sharply asunder from it. She brought
together a convention of men who
were, on the whole, patriotic and
prophetic, and desired well for their
country; but they sundered her from
all the traditions of the past, and 1t
was many years before she could be-
gin again a new course Of progress.
Great Britain has held to her tradi-
tons, but has not been tied by them.
She has made her future grow out OF
her past, and has kept the connection
between the past and the future; and
the history OF Great Britain has been
history Of continuous and. on the
whole, of almost unbroken progress.
America has turned a page in her
national history. What shall she
write on the ne Wage? She may, on
the one hand, say nothing which has
not been written in the past. She
may bind herself by traditions of the
past; she may try to be in the future
exactly what she was In the past
and she will not succeed. On the
other hand she may break asunder
from that past entirely. She may
say, Thus far we have grown rich
and strong and prosperous by prin-
ciples of liberty and self-government,
and now we will take new tack and
see what we can do by principles OF
imperialism and despotism." Neither
