Barralaureate services were held at

evening. for the senior class. The
services opened with a song by the
Convreyati onal Ehurch choir, follow
ed bv Invocation by E. 4. Savage OF
st. Paul. Rev Frank Atkinson of the
Congregational church delivered the
hacralaureate sermon, after which
Rev. L. l.. Harris pronounced the
henediction and the audience sang
my Country 'TiS OF Thee
Rev. Atkinson chose for his text
HWhat shall we offer unto the Lord
tor all His benefits toward us. He
opened his sermon by explaining that
bacealaureate sermons have been de-
livered for centuries. and quoted
Noah as having preached he. He salc
that instead of telling them OF the OPP
portunities which lay before them, he
would present to them the obligations
they owe the world and society. He
said: ''You have now reached the
place where life takes on sterner
aspect. DO not imagine, though, that
life from this time on is all stern and
ferbiidng. / shall not tell YOU that
the happiest days Of your life are
ended with the school days, and I
challenge the man who does tell you
so. Your happiest days are before
you, for your capacity for enjoyment
will grow along with you and broaden
m the same ratio that your miud IS
broauened.
He stated that it was not his pur-
pose to present the graduates a future
which mi ght appeal to them on ac~
count of the material gain it might
bring, but rather, future through
which they could in some measure re-
pay their debts to society. Instead
of asking the question ''What Can I
Get?' the query should he "What
Can I Offer.'' Educ alton gives a per-
son increased capacity for the enjoy
ment of life and prepares him for the
day when he shall enter the world of
trade, as we'll as to make him moral
~ fit. He compared life with a prin-
riple in geometry, that "a straight
line is the shortest distance between
any two points, and saying that the
shortest way from where the gradu-
ates now are to the point they have
