Members of the Class of 1924:
We welcome you this morning to the
college of Daniel p. Thompson, where
he learned Just 100 years ago to love
the Vermont forests and the story OF
the Vermont pioneers. We nope you
will come to love them too and to
mbibe as he did the strength Of the
hills Whether from near or FAX, YOU
will look out for four years on the
graceful valley and the glorious noun
tans beyond, and if you view them
with sympathetic soul, they will teach
YOU beyond any power of books,
These mountains have been makers
freedom more than lovers of life
| SIMPLE IN bearing, unpretentlouS, not
ELUSIVE, but keen in mind, shrewu IL
Judgment, unconquerable in will, good
fighters, content that life should hold
its inevitable dsappointments, but
never yielding their faith nor their
pride 1t is character we seek to buil1
in you, founded on the strength of the
hills, which we believe our college
symbolizes both in outward form and
in inward spirit However learned OF
skilled you become, we shall have
failed in our chief purpose unless We
reach this goal Very frankly and
definitely Middlebury College is com.
mitted, not to the setting of all wis.
dom before you that you may choose
we care not what, but to the eXposi
ton of that wisdom which makes mer
of the calibre of the men who made
Vermont. There wa, never more
need of such men than just now TC

FEDERAL ACT SAFE
No Conflict With Proposed
/ Idaho Amendment.

Boise, ldaho.--A proposed con.
stitutional amendment of section 2,
article 8, OF the state constitution,
to give the state control OF the
development Of unused water
power, would have no affect upon
the operation OF the federal farm
loan act, according to an opinion
given Friday by Dean Driscoll,
assistant attorney general.
The inquiry, says Mr.. Driscoll,
was evidently made with the idea
that such an amendment might
interfere with the operation of the
federal act. This would be utterly
impossible, the opinion says, as
the state has nothing to do with
the federal act. The section under
discu sion is quoted as follows;
"The credit of the state shall not
in any manner be given or loaned
to or in aid of any individual, asso-
citation, municipality or corpora
ton; nor shall the state directly or
indirectly become a stockholder Ia
any association or corporation. -
The opinion says: "This section
as quoted was part, and has
always remained part, of the
constitution of this state as it was
originally adopted in 1889. The
proposed amendment is simply the
addition to the section as it has
always stood, of the tollowing
provided, that the state itself
may control and promote the. de-
velopment of the unused water
power within this state"
