Taking his text from Isaiah, he
developed the theme, ga Man and
His Mission" He showed by num-
erous illustrations from secular
and religious history that in every
life there is a luminous hour" in
which is revealed vision of ones
mission; that in every national
crisis the vision is vouchsafed to
one, not always from the higher
walks Of life but often from the
lowest paths where in obscurity,
he has been prepared for this
hour.
An eloquent plea for proper OBJ
servance of the Sabbath and the
assurance that the world is at the
| feet of the man or woman with a
vision, closed the sermon.
The benediction was pronounced
by Rev. William j. Rowan. Special
music was provided by Miss Nellie

Mrs. Robert E. Speer Brings Vita
Message
Exercises in Huge Tent Attract
Hundreds from This and
Adjoining States

Adjoining States
The second annual Commence
ment at Women's College of Della
ware yielded nothing in interest
or perfection of detail to that Of
last year.
The huge tent erected on the
east Campus was filled to over
flowing long before 3 o'clock with
interested spectators from this and
neighboring states. A committee
from the Junior class did efficient
work as ushers and Miss Dora
Ware of the faculty acted as mar
shall of the academic procession.
Miss Quaesita Drake was chairman
of the Commencement committee.
The annual address was deliver
ed by Mrs. Robert E. Speer of New
York, president of the National Y.
w. G. A., the invocation was asked
by DR.. William Temple of Will
mington, and the henediction pro-
nounced by Rev. William J. Rowan
of Newark. The Sophomore Glass
carrying standards which bore
pennants of blue and gold, acted
as guards of honor for the Seniors.
Henry B. Thompson, president of
the Board Of Trustees made several
announcements-one concerning a
gift of $500 from a friend for
beautifying the campus; one of
scholarship to the Summer School
at Columbia University, awarded
to Elizabeth w. Houston; and gifts
Of 60 scholarships to young wo-
men who will take teacher-training
at the college.
Mrs. Speer held her audience
spellbound while she told simply
and earnestly just what women
may accomplish through discipline,
leadership and ideals; how eagerly
those of middle age are welcoming
the clear eyed vision of the recruits
from the colleges, and how hope
fully they expect this young army
to measure up to the tasks of re-
construction as their brothers
measured up to the difficult and
untried tasks of the past two years.
She emphasized especially the
necessity of self discipline and the
danger of Bolshevism which she
defined as doing what you felt like
doing, instead Of what you ought to
do"
A glowing tribute was paid to
the young women in uniform and
out of it who bent their efforts
alike to the heroic and to the dis
agreeable tasks imposed by the
world war. An urgent plea was
voiced that women demand high
standards of themselves, and that
they reduce the business of living
to the basis of habit in order that
their energies may be directed to
the great tasks of reconstruction
In conclusion, she urged the
7 necessity of dignifying the work
Of the hands and warned Of the
: dangers Of educating the head al
the expense of the hand and the
heart.
She quoted from Benjamin
4 Kidd's new book, "The Science Of
: Power" the startling statement
that women Of high ideals form ;
: great reservoir of power which
! could change in one generation al
that is wrong Gpd faulty in tht
} world. Upon wbmen even more
than on men rests a great responsi
: bility, for more depends on th'
race than on the individual.
"Not in Paris" she said, "is tn
true Peace Conference staged, bu
in the silent places among quie
men and women who work that tn,
will of God be done in earth as i
is in heaven"
