My Dear DR.. Putnam
Just back from France, want to
express my keen appreciation OF
what the American Library Associa-
ton is doing for our troops abroad.
l found your books everywhere,
from the seaport bases to the front
line trenches. I found them in dug
outs thirty to forty feet below

ground, in cow-barns where the

and tents far back from the firing

villages in the training area where
our men are billeted, and even in re-
mote parts of France where our
forestry units are carrying on their
lonely but ESSENTIAL work.
And they were well worn books
that saw, showing signs Of constant
usage. Indeed, the books are in con-
! tinual demand, and am sure that
it will be a reading army that we
shall welcome home from France when
! the war is done.
AS you know, your organization
overseas is working in close cooper

Association, Knights of Columbus and
the Salvation Army, and it's services
are recognized and appreciated by the
entire Expeditionary Force, from
General Pershing to the lowliest pri-

AN ABLE ADDRESS
REV. JOSEPH SMITH TALKS TO
c. II. U. GRADUATES.

Rev Joseph II. Smith of Redlands,
California, was the speaker at the {.
II. II. Baccalaureate services Sunday
morning and as the exercises were
held at the large tabernacle in the
grove. the speaker of the hour, with
President j. l.. Brasher of the Uni
versity, followed by the members OF
the faculty and the college gradual
ing class in their caps and gowns,
with the graduates from the other
courses, marched from the University
buildings to the tabernacle and all
together made quite an imposing ap-
pearance.
On entering the building the facul-
ty took seats on the platform and the
graduates occupied the front seats in
the center section. The opening in
vocation was offered by DR.. G. A. Nc
I.aughlin, former president of the
University, and after an anthem had
been rendered by the large choir, led
by Rev. ]. NJ. Harris, the Scripture
lesson was read by Rev. c. II. Bah
cock. Kenneth Wells and Prof. s.
Il. Carter contributed a pleasing vo-
cal duet and this was followed by the
address of the morning.
DR.. Smith spoke on the subject OF
THE Higher Learning" and selected
his text from LIST Corinthians 2:9.
The trend of the sermon went to show
that there was higher learning than
that which is obtained in schools and
that after we have reached the limits
of our knowledge in Nature and the
Sciences and completed our inyesti-
cations regarding the great universe
that God in His wisdom has created
for the good of man, there are still
the deeper things of God that are TO
be realized for mans well being not
only in this world but also in the life
to come.
The spiritual realm is more import
ant for our learning than that which
is secured in schools and in fact the
which We secure here
should fit us the more fully to under
stand and appreciate the spiritual.

OF encouragement to the class were
