In former days it was the custom
to welcome every graduating class OF
every school to the affairs Of the
workaday world with remarks design
ed to impress the graduates with the
enthusiastically small amount of their
knowledge of actual affairs We. do
not say that this was not just1dable!s
In view of the pompous essays that
formerly were delivered from every
commencement platform it may have
been fitting that watchers over the
public welfare should deliver warn

might amass astoo= Prodigious idea OF
their own importance and capabilities:
But lately. within the last few years
it has been found that the impress;
meth of this idea is not necessary.

a fairly correct idea of themselves
and the tasks before them--Parkers,
