The man or woman who eind. les in the University Of Arizona must do in the same time work equivalent m quality and quaItiCy to that of the most illustrio1s univ. ,- sities of the country, or our young people desiring or compelled to transfer elsewhere @ill find them selves humiliated n their class. flea ton and will never pardon the insti- tuition that s,ul,iac.Ai q s.n, 10 this sacrifice of our boys and girls in humiliation.

 The great motif Of all education in these days is service: the eSucat- ed man and woman are to recognize themselves only as stewards of riCh possessions to be returned with us- ury 10 society. And the sta.e mi versity has a high point ,. sant7ge in urging this motif upon students. No universities are more tully est'I- ped, more literally supDortsI than our state institutions: yet nowhere is as much given at so little cost. Tn many states the state university is setting the educational standards and methods for the whole stste whether of other colleges which through conviction or self-prese~va- ton accent wholly cr in large meas ure forms of tts state university, or of high schtsia whose cuii;en- lum is determin ns Sy the TcquiIe- n'ents for admissfo1 10 the state un- iversity. On the state university. then, is laid a responsibility ~elluu in earlier days imposed on 2 hIgher educational institution. And the un- iversity in It's management and ip it's instruction is false to it's .rast if it does not conscientiously and un- tireingly meet the issue. Without reference to craftsmanship in roil- ties. religion or other forms o' so- cial organizations, the university owes and must afford the young Teo- ple Of the state training in the h'gh- est citizenship: must acuuaint them with the phases of great problers that affect the state: must disciDline them as fully as possible in those industries that have snecial interest to the state; and in doing these must give 8 culture that eluips men a''d women for clear thought and intelh- gent action.
 Jn Arizona the university has the field to itself and, lacking the coop eration Of other higher institutions, must perform with special faithfll- ness this high moral and intellect ual service. Until now no other col lege has been fornded in the terri tory because population and resourc- es were wanting May # be that as the territory ents7E statehood and increases rapidly fB numbers and ir. wealth. the university shall have the confidence Of all the state so fully for it's ethical and intellectual ideals that the day may he long in coming. Terbsrs never come. when to conserve their own ideas Of char acter and service. groups Of 1evnt- ed people will relieve 1t necessary to erect connection to it.
 The University s~d Patriotism.
 The state university has a saeC al dutv in the tevelonment of natri"tic loyalty to the state. Gratitude alone shoul5 inspire It's students with such a sentiment. But with young Deonle sentiments are rather evanescent than abiding. Perhaps we lack pub lie occasions in these later days for the manifestation and cultivation Of ratriotism. Notwithstanding the trou- Hes of the rast few rnorths along the border, war Is generally nassinS from the earth. Far less than form 7rIv men are summoned t0 defend the state with their lives. This Is, Tn general. a happy consummation, but not happy # it makes us forget the state. All the more demand, then, in these days of OFFS for a proper emnhasis on the duty of the cit'zen to the state. We cannot content ouT- selves with a Decoration Day 5f- drrss. a roisv Fourth of July. and a Thanks giving sermon: the address and the sermon are heard bv few; the Fourth of July is heard too Eilch and 1t is nothing else. Our schools, whatever else they teach. must pe schools of good citizenship, of by altv to co1,munitv and stnte. And the university has here it's srecial function. It's students aTe about tc enter the hodv Of citizens. in it's halls the young man or woman :s to receive his last precerts in the science and arr of government; though happily tBSs is TO. tN he his last lesson in public scrvi"n. for al rood citizens will eve-'rlifv it to him. But unless the student later en- fers the seTvice Of the state as . legislator or otherwise. he will never again be in close association with so rnauy men and women in the i'm mediate service Of the state. Neither the governor. a justice Of the su- prerne court. a nernber of the legis- Iature is more fully an immediate servant of tHe state than an instruct or in the state university. Herein Is great insniration and weighty re- sponsibilitv. Is anything sublimer to , man than the sense that his work is a direct service to the state. ser vice to aIl rnel au1 ,'nntcr of the commonwealth ministeriuz 10 the
