Mr.. Garrison takes the position that

situation would be created which easily
might lead TO trouble.
General Gorgas still Is awaiting tho

Ethical I raining
OF Youth Is DUTY
of Every College

deepcns the ethical sense as the his
torical view. The study OF the do
velopment Of any of the arts or sciences
brings clearly before the student the
idea that all the good OF the present
has been built up by slow accretions,
that these accretions have been made
tanned by the conception Of the con-
tinuity Of society and solidarity OF the
race. No college Is able to discharge
its ethical function that does not by
some means inhame the student to
heroic conduct by the unselhsh ex-
ample of the great men Of the past.
POWER OF STUDENTS
TO DE USED AS TRUST
1t is incumbent upon the college
to impress upon the students that
the power they acquire in college
Is to be used as trust held for
society. and that the only ethical
use Of power of any kind Is that
which leaves society richer and
stronger in all It's essentials. Fur
thermore. it must he impressed
upon the young college man that such
an ideal for the use Of his pswers Is
practicable: that every one who does
not so use his strength trespasses uron
society. and that the personal exercise
Of power. unless imbued with this
ethical conception. makes the strong
man too often a social bandit.
Intelligence without conscience Is
more perilous to society than vicious
