Honor Comes Again to Student


Miss Harriet Haaland, valedictor-
ian of the 1887 graduating class, re-
ceived the following letter from DR..
H. G.. Klemme, commencement
speaker. You may remember that
/ told you / would write sermon
around your phrase. Perhaps you
thought 1t was just kindly. ges-
ture, but to prove my sincerity,
am enclosing the sermon as pub
lished in the Grand Forks Herald last
Sunday morning" The sermon is
as follows:
Nothing But Dreams" Gradu-
alton time is here again. Once more
we are reminded by optimistic youth
that they are ready for the trials,
the victories, and the defeats of
life. Nothing finer ever happens
in their LIES span than the thrill of
expectancy with which they greet a
waiting world.
Having had considerable expert
ence offering suggestions and in
SEPARATION to graduating students, it
is a pleasure for the writer to cred
it a high school senior with a
thought that is worthy of bordering
and meditation. In the course of
her unusually able valedictory adj
dress this young lady said, We
have nothing but our dreams"
Now it seems that a dream is not
much OF an equipment with which
to battle realities. Rather do we
think of skill, training, talent, apti-
tude, and similar devices as being
the effective agencies with which
to work in a practical world.
Only as we study history with its
profound philosophers do we dis
cover that while hands and feet
come, machines, and motors have
done tremendous things in the
world, the greatest contribution has
been made by men who dream
dreams.
Think for a moment of that car
penter in Nazareth. He had no army
and no crown, no scepter, no throne.
He wrote no book, he commanded
no soldiers, his followers being SIM
pie fisher folk. He died in the
midst of his campaign, crucified as
a final feature of contempt by those
whom he had come to save.
When the died he left nothing
but his dream. But the power OF
that dream shattered the empire
Of Rome, divided the course of time,
dignified and en-nobled Womanhood,
lifted up the lot of children and
set the seal of the worlds approval
on wistful hope of brotherhood.
There are millions of men who
follow this Dreamer. In the name
of His dream they have conquered
the perils of the deep, the hazards
of the unknown everywhere Be
cause He dreamed that dream, men
have died again and again for JUS
tice and for righteousness.
Or turn your thoughts to log
cabin wherein a long. gangIng boy
sits reading by the light of the open
fire. A dream is in his soul 1t is
no settled restful dream, but Slim
ulating thing that gives him nc
rest No rest until the last shackle
shall be struck from the wrist OF
the last slave and men shall have
established forever the right OF
freedom. Only a dream, but be-
cause of the dream millions of peo-
pie know the meaning of the word
liberty.
You said, Harriet Haaland, that
you had nothing but your dream
| want you to say and the hun
dreds of thousands of graduates
like you that if you can keep your
dreams intact through all the days
Of your life, you will be a blessing
to your generation and a credit tc
your race.

George Of the New York A. C. fourth.

Elon Colleges fighting Christians
turned back Virginia Military Insti-
tute's favored flying squadron on
Alumni Field today, IL to 6. 1t was
a distinct upset.
V. M. is attack repeatedly begged
down despite occasional brilliant
dashes by Andy Trzeciak and Paul
Shu, sophomore flash.
The Cadets counted first on
sustained drive Of 5s yards in the
second quarter, with Shu driving
through the line for the score.
Elon took the offensive almost i'm
mediately when Wilkinson, alert back,
recovered a punt fumbled by Billy
Robertson on the Cadets 34-yard line.
Amos Shelton whipped a neat pass
to Abbitt, who was run out of bounds
on the three-yard mark. The cadet
line held against two charges by Abb
bitt, but on the third plunge he went
over.
A MOTHER tumble in the third
period, recovered by John Beaver
on " M. rs 1-yard line, enabled
Abbitt to score again after Shelton
had been held for no gain. A
moment before. the Cadets apparently
had stopped Elons drive when Trze-
ciak intercepted pass on the S.
yard line after Shelton had tossed to
Hal Bradley for 3l-yard gain. The
tumble spoiled the Cadet chance.
The Cadets had two more oppor-
tunities TO score after the Christians
had taken the lead. Bud Kovar re-
turned the kickoff 80 yards as the
third period closed, but Capt. Joe
Caruso intercepted Trzeciak's pass
near mldfield when the Cadets took
b. the air.

THE HITCH HIkERs

III "A 4eatuIe of American life that has
lflpqfish dlsinfe a lad first asked for ride
on hay wagon seems to be on the way
out. the Jackson Sun believes. According
to veteran hitchhiker, who has thumbed
his way for some $4,000 miles in forty
one states, it is growing harder daily to
obtain rides by this method. Speed, he be-
lleves. is making hitchhiking dying art.
The Interstate Commerce Commission
has recommended that states enact Iegis-
lation barring ride-thumbers from trucks
and other vehicles subject to the Motor
Carrier Act The Sun adds:
IF the wagging thumb and the plead
ing eye are rendered ineffective, it would
seem to be good thing all around There
would be no more instances in which driv-
ers are robbed. or even slain, by hitch
mixers to whom they were giving rides.
and, undoubtedly, more American youths
would remain at home"

JEFFERsoN's EPITAPH

Thomas Jefferson's dominating trait
was his love of liberty, and it was as a
champion of human freedom that he de-
sired to be known to posterity. This was
illustrated by his epitaph, written by him
self for inscription upon his tomb:
Here is buried Thomas jefferson,
author of the Declaration of independence;
and of the statutes of Virginia for religious
freedom; and father of the University of
Virginia" -
No reference is made to his services
as governor of Virginia, member of Con-
gress, minister to France, secretary of
state, vice-president and twice president of
the United States. In his own estimation
his services in the cause of liberty stood
above all these.
Freedom of government, freedom of
education were the paramount detectives
of his life, as epitomized in his epitaph.
Born an aristoerat. Thomas jefferson be-
came the ardent defender of the masses
and one of the greatest opponents of
human liberty the world has ever known.
