Law of Today Superior.

At some length Peter Royal Feldman
OF the department of law. compared THE
Law of Yesterday and Today" He re-
viewed the statutes of the ancient days
and picked them apart and showed their
crudeness Then taking up the law of
today. he showed where it was many
times better than the law OF old 1T is
not maintained he said. that our law
is perfection. In fact. no law of humans
is infallible. But there is no doubt that
the law of today is the law of progress
1t has been demonstrated that 1t is pro-
gressive, and can progress farther. Our
law system is capable of dealing with
the most complex affairs. Our law is
growing constantly and is capable of eX-
pandng-i in principles.
DR.. Alexander Graham Bell was not
present to receive his degree Of doctor

The close of the university course
should not conclude the studies Of the
graduates. President Stockton declared
in his address to the gradua ting classes
of the George Washington University
last night. The commencement exer-
cises were held in the auditorium of the
Memorial Continental Hail.
Promptly at s O'clock the president
members of the board of trustees and
of the faculties Of the various branches

classes, in their caps and gowns, en-
tered the auditorium through. the rear
and took the seats which had been re-
served for them in front of the stage.
The seats for the audience had been
filled for some time before the
exercises began. The edge of the stage
was literally banked with flowers for
the graduates. Music was furnished by
a section of the United States Marine
Band. Rev. DR.. Charles Wood, pastor
of the Church of the Covenant, opened
the exercises with prayer, and closed

Should Keep Up Studies.

President Stockton told the students
that they had only begun their educa-
ton. He spoke of the necessity of
character. and declared that vigilance
in this matter should be eternal Es-
pecial attention was laid by President
Stockton on the fact that study should
be maintained through life, and should
only be ended with death. Those not
growing in knowledge, he said, had
reached mental stagnation and death.
He warned them against some of the
influences which they would meet in
the outside world. He told the stu
that they could successfully withstan
these outside pressures.
Rex. Emir kinsell of Columbian Col
lese. in an Grafton on Our Equip
ment." reviewed the researches carried
on by students, and told how the world
had become better known to them
through this study. They had grown
broader and more stable, he said. I'VE
have learned that all our laws of
mathematics, physics and chemistry
are but some of the tools from which
all Of the universe was made. Instead
of being confined to the short periods
of our lives we have been made part
of all Of the centuries. Whenever we
come upon college-bred man or Wom-
an whose sympathies are not with the
world we shall have met one whose
education has failed. We have found
that we live in marvellous world, but
superior to this world is man" In
concluding he told of the error of the
man who leaves his mind unframed.
