MAY FORM ESCORT.
V. M. I. Institute Corps Likely to Haze
Place in Parade.

Richmond. Va, Dec. 30.-Special eff
fort will be made this week to induce
President-elect Woodrow Wilson to
designate the cadets of the Virginia
Military Institute as his personal es-
cort at the inauguration in Wash
ington. Alumni met yesterday and
called on Senator Thomas S. Martin
in an effort to interest him and enlist
his support to the proposition. Mem
bers of the board of visitors have al
ready requested Washington alumni
to press the matter with the commit
tees in charge of the inaugural parade.
1t was understood in Staunton dur
ing the recant celebration that Cen
eral E. w. Nichols, the superinten-
dent, is anxious to have the honor
done the cadet corps. This means that
many friends of the institution will
work hard for it. Governor Wilson
reviewed the boys in Saturdays pa
raGe, where they were in high favor.
The Institute cadets usually bring
plenty of enthusiasm when they ap-
pear. At the last Inauguration they
had one of the few organizations able
to stand the entire march from begin
ming to end, in the snow and slush.
Should Governor Wilson accedc to
the request and name the cadets as
his personal escort in the inaugural
pagaants, graduates living in Wash
ington will endeavor to have them give
an exhibition drill on the Washington
Monument grounds to the visitors
from all ovsr the country may see
them.

" allowance in order that he may pay
the widows of Senator John w. Daniel
and Captain Micajah Woods for legal
services rendered him by their hus.
bands, and for the expenses OF print

oner said he also owed money to other
attorneys, alienists, Psychologists and
others, who had assisted him on the
understanding that they would be paid
when he got possession of his prop
erty, now in the hands of a committee,
of his estate in New York.
Anticipating unfavorable action in
the New York courts, which have uni
formly held against him, he said ne

stitutional grounds, and would ask Tor
safe conduct for himself to Wash
ington that he may argue his own

and thirty-ive minutes, telling of ms
n
crusade against enforcement of sterl-
Iization laws in Western States; OF
police graft in New York City. closing
by reading copius extracts from and
roundly abusing the New York Sun,
both for it's treatment of himself and
of it's remarks on the police graft stu
alton. At other times he quoted at
length from his own works, offering
his books to prove that on lunacy laws
he was the authority of all the world,
and that his sixteen year contest to
get possession of his property had be-
come the Dreyfus case of Lunacy."

Jchn D. Rockefeller, Jr., Delivers
Sermon. -.

John D. Rockefeller, Jr., in address
ing large audience yesterday after
noon in the Y. NJ. C. A. building il
Tarrytown, N. Y, which was made
possible by a gift of $4,000 from his
father, told of his faith in prayer.
He said that when he faced the cri-
sis of his life and his happiness and
usefulness to the world depended upon
the desision he prayed to God for four
years night and morning to guide
him in the right path. Suddenly one
morning before the sun was up ard
dawn had broken he arose from his
bed and lighted lamp. He said the
path of his life was as clear TO him as
though there was sign pointing
which was the right road to take. He
took his pen and paper, and there in
the early morning committed himself
to the life he should lead. What the
crisis was or how he committed HIM
self he did not say.
Mr.. Rockefeller referred to Paul's
question: "Lord. What Wilt Thou have
me to do?"
81 want to call your attention to
three words in that question:" said Mr..
Rockefeller First, will place the
emphasis on the word Thou What
wilt Thou have me to dc?
"The hes tadvice of a friend is often
wrong. Think of the great sums paid
to lawyers and doctors for advice,
Think of the hours waiting to see
them while Gods advice is free and we
can have it at any time. He will tell
You what to do.
"Now l want ia place the empha-
sis on me- We all know what every
body else should do. know what my
neighbor should do. It's what l should
do that concerns me. ! believe that
everyone was put here for some pur-
pose There is work to do, and If we
don't do our share it may go undone,
and we shall lose the blessings and
rewards of doing that work.
The answer to prayer may call for
courage, sacrifice, it may involve re-
arrangement of your life plans, but
let no man ask the question who fears
the answer. 1t may lead you into the
missionary field. the ministry or a
banking house. And possibly to do
work with a pick and shovel. It is
Gods call that bitches must be dug,
it's honorable work. No task for God
is too humble or too lofty. He will
help us bear our burdens, and if we
arg weak He will make US strong.
The men who pray to God, like chill
dren send letters to Santa Claus for
toys, will never find much in prayer"
In conclusion Mr.. Rockefeller said:
'We stand upon the threshold OF
new year. The old year is nearly
dead. No doubt it contains some rec
ords that we would like to tear out,
but we can't do it now. The new year
is coming with every page clean and
white. You soon win begin new rec
ord. Men, shall we. write clean,
strong. manly record? Have we the
courage to do it? There can be no
Sinking in answering this young
mans question"
