school or college.
In the oratorical contest Mr.
Lindsay chose as his subject Lead
ership," and we are pleased to pub
lish in full his Grafton, which fol-
lows:
Leadership
What constitutes the quality of
leadership? We may describe it as
talent or genius, and our definition
is incomplete. Neither learning,
courage nor eloquence is a synonym.
There still remains a subtle element
Of psychology to account for. 1t is
inherent in the man himself and not
dependent on surroundings. 1t is
not a product of the schools, yet it
flourishes in college soil. There is a
potential leadership in any one who
aspires to a higher education. In
college you may try out your capa-
bilities and find yourself.
When we study the lives of the
great men of the past we see that
they met the epochmaking occasion
in their lives as masters and not as
cravens. We may imagine that they
owed their greatness to the peculiar
and despair of such another crisis
for the display of our own. The
crisis will do nothing for a man if
his character does not stand ready
to match it, When the coward S
great trial comes he fails because he
is coward. Neither will it avail if
others give a man place, opportuni-
ty and power. Exalt base man
and he becomes a petty tyrant;
driving or whining, but never lead
ing.
Leadership is a characteristic of
the American people. That wonder
full perennial transplanted to bleak
New England's shore, that bloomed
so gorgeously at Bunker Hill. still
grows and thrives. 1t grew at Get
tysburg on either ridge and in the
valley between San Juan Hill and
the Argonne forest saw the same
bravery, the same initiative, the
same ability. Any occasion in the
future will find among you those who
are worthy to lead. God grant that
your test may not come amid fire
and blood and groans and tears
Your opportunity will come in the
more peaceful fields of religion, of
politics, or of business. Already in
the great industrial organizations
pioneers are blazing the trail. There
is Nash with his shop council Civ
ing labor a voice in the manage
ment. In Philadelphia, Mitten is
giving the street railway workers
a square deal. In Detroit Henry
Ford is giving good wages with de-
cent working conditions. Labor
too needs leadership. The present
leaders rely on the old methods of
conflict. They suffer and inflict suf-
fering, hoping that good may result
in the end. Who will lead Capital
and Labor out into paths of pros
porous, peaceful production?
The science of government offers
a worthy field for leadership, be-
cause law and government affect us
all. Politics has a peculiar appeal
to the red-blooded, clean-hearted
citizen. The field is before you.
What will be your attitude toward
laws already on the statute books? :?
While they are laws shall they be
enforced or shall they be made a
joke? Suppose it had been your
friend hurled to his death by booze?
Or could you behold blood matted
curls on the pavement with drunk
en- speedster zigzagging up the
street, and enjoy a prohibition jest?
