WORK BRINGS 10Y,
GRADUATES TOLD
Dr.. StockdaIe Addresses
G. W. Class at All
Souls Church.

The Kingdom Of Heaven lies around
US and may be reached through work,
Rev. DR.. Allen Stockdale of the First
Congregational Church told the grad
uating class of George Washington
University in baccalaureate sermon
at All Souls Church, Sixteenth and
Harvard streets.
The speaker took as his text the
Bible quotation, The Kingdom of
Heaven is like unto a treasure hidden
in the field"
That treasure lies in the oppor-
tunities and the challenges which
confront you" he said The litera-
ture you possess, the music you un-
derstand the dream which touches
your own soul, makes the world about
you the Kingdom of Heaven. 1t is
realm of enthusiasm, of creative en-
ergy of high dreaming"
But you will not be enriched until
you personally appropriate the treas
ure," he told the graduates. You will
never experience the joy of discovery
if you never have to work for any
thing, to pillow for the treasure, to
covet it for a while until you can
buy 1t. The trouble with us is that
we want everything now and at once
But the music, the literature, the
drama of the world, cannot be created
by mass production. There must be
patience that plows in the hopeless
field and transforms it from a mean
ingless bit of earth into a spot where
there is hidden treasure"
DR.. Stockdale said the price that is
paid in terms of effort for achieve
ment must be forgotten.
Life hasn't lost its Dreams" he
concluded. When you plow, if you
can appropriate the treasure and for
get the price you pay in the JOY of
discovery you will experience the
Kingdom of Heaven in the glory and
wonder of living"
Rev. DR.. u. G. B. Pierce, minister of All
Souls Church. offered the invocation
and pronounced the benediction. DR..
Cloyd Heck Marvin, president of the
university, read the Scripture. A mu-
slcal program was presented by
Charles Trowbridge Tittman, bass,
and Lewis Atwater, organist.

over have just been issued by the

Nearly every station in the United
States for which it was possible to OBJ
tain data showed higher mean aver
age temperature for the decade than
the mean average temperature of all
the previous years during which OBJ
servations have been taken.
Europe also appears to have been
a trifle warmer during the decade,
although the higher mean is not
found so consistently, and at some
stations there was a slight decline.
The figures. of course, do not mean
that at any particular United States
Weather Bureau station where the
observations were taken it was con-
tinuously warmer during the decade
than in the past. At some OF them
even cold weather records may have
been broken. They are cumulative

long period cycle in weather not fully
understood.
