tect in the making Of his personality.
In illustrating these facts, DR.. Kjer-
stad used the words of the pact who
said:
Let us then be up and doing,
With a heart for any fate,
Still achieving, still pursuing,
Learn to labor and to wait.
DR.. Kjerstad closed his talk with
some appropriate lines from Longfel-
low:
And the night shall be filled with mu-
sic, !.
And the cares that infest the day;
Shall fold their tents like the Arabs,
And as silently steal away.
