GARDINER HIGH
BACCALAUREATE
WELL RECEIVED

i ne VI INC Ice DoPtiSI
church was filled to capacity on sun
day evening by members of the grad
uating class of the Gardiner High
school, their relatives and friends, to
listen to the Baccalaureate sermon
which was delivered by Rev. F. c.
Wright, D. D.. pastor of the church.
The decora tons were tasty and well
distributed and the class presented an
appearance Of which any city might
we'll be proud. Special music, suitab. G
for the occasion, added much to the
service.
The discourse of DIR. Wright was a
powerful one the text being from
Kings, %, BE Strong" After a few
words of welcome ne drew their atten-
ton to the three important elements
Of character building, a healthy body.
a normal mind and spiritual nature.
He said: 1T is the duty of young men
and women to cultivate physical
strength. This we may do by athletic
sports. gymnastics and the legitimate
forms of exercise. To do our best work
we should come to It in excellent con-
dition and good equipment" Without
:aese conditions we are handicapped
in life Then" said he take good
care of your bodies"
Cultivate Mental Strength
The development OF the body is but
a part, perhaps a small part, in sense,
of an all-around manhood or woman
hood. Prize fighters nay have well de-
veloped bodies and yet they may have
very little influence outside of the
prize ring. Our energy must not run
too much to Drawn. The men who have
compelled the worlds attention are no.
men of Drawn so much as men Of
brain. Mind and heart rule the world
He called attention to the great names
of history as proof that the bravest are
the tenderest and the loving the most
daring. If our idea of manhood means
no more than mere physical strength,
we should be no more than animals.
Drawn no longer rules and today intel
lectual and spiritual strength are the
Alpha and Omega. The speaker called
attention to the fact that digesting is
as needful as eating and hence one
should De very careful as to what kind
of literature one reads.
Spiritual Strength Necessary
DR.. Wright further said 1T is our
duty to cultivate physical strength in
the care of our bodies and mental
strength in the care of our minds.
Surely we owe it to God. our neighbor
and ourselves to seek to develop in
moral and spiritual strength" He COM
pared character building to the build
ing of large ocean liner. Our body
is the hull, our mind the engine and
our spiritual nature the rudder in the
building Of a strong character. We
may have a splendid training in ath-
letics, and you may add to this the
very best mental equipment of the
schools and colleges and with the spir-
itual nature overlooked or undeveloped.
our lives will be much like the steam
ship with a modern hull. the finest en-
gines but the rudder chains uncon-
nected. DR.. Wright closed his discourse
with a quotation from Tennyson.
