PRES. Grille GIVES
SOME GOOD ADVICE
Head Of Agricultural College Tells
Graduates that True Culture Is
Ability to Serve
SAYS NOT TO DEsPlse RELIGION
Superintendent Pays Nigh Tribute to
New Mexico's Various Educa-
tiOnal Institutions

New Mexico certainly secured
ten strike when DIR. A. ID. Grille was
induced to accept the presidency of
our agricultural college. He is with
out question one Of the most practi-
cal and intensely sensible men who
ever occupied this exalted position.
and il is safe to say that people have
never realized as they do today the
great Importance of having a master
hand at the helm of our agricultural
interests in this state.
BY unanimous vote OF the class
of 1917, DR.. Grille was chosen to de-
liver our baccalaureate sermon, and
with no disparagement to other emf
nent gentlemen who have delivered
baccalaureates in the past, we pro-
nounce DR.. Crile's the best baccalau-
reate Dcming has ever heard.
He laid no stress upon oratory but
was content to talk TO his audience
in heart to heart manner that COM
manded the most profound attention
and consideration.
His text was taken from the Bible
reference, which speaks Of the ma
who built his house upon a rock.
He expressed great faith in our Re-
publican form Of government and
pointed with pride to the fact that
our nation is built upon a rock.
lie told in clear unmistakable
manner how the world is going thru
the greatest crisis in its history and
the part our government must neces-
,arily take IN the great war. II,
mentioned the fact that 1t is aoso.
lutelv essential that we maintain oul
physical health and strength, ant
gave it as his opinion that on Jun,
there would be n large percentag,
of men between the ages Of 2l anC
80 who would be physically unquali-
fed to meet the test.
Referring to quality he wanted the
class to thoroughly understand thai
he did not mean high society and low
/ cut vests, but real strength of char.
acter and ability to serve. He sug'
gested that the man who has the abil'
| tv and inclination 10 help feed Amer
len has culture, and the woman who
trains her children in the way they
should grow. has culture.
I He gave it as his opinion that thu
reason Germany is SO hard to con
Quer is because all her citizens ar,
trained to be efficient. no matteI
what their station in life may be.
DR.. Grille does not desire to b,
classed as an alamist. but he GER
tainly realizes and has a thorough,
intelligent idea of the great response
blity resting upon the worlds lead
ers today, and we doubt there was
single person in that vast audience
who gave such respectful attention
during the masterful lecture, VIII
did not leave the building withou
an intelligent idea of the great crisi
through which the world is passing.
