living. Now that you have had prac-
teal training and developed earning
power, you are planning to launch
out, but remember you are inexper-
fenced. You should move with eau
ton. You should think before you
act. Naturally you will meet with
some disappointments. You have
possessions that are worthwhile and
ambitions that are laudable. 1t is
hard to have them rejected or ig-
nored, or even adversely criticized.
And when this happens, if you are
not on your guard, you may point
to someone whose carelessness or
greed or jealousy is responsible for
your injury and you may even doubt
that good is supreme in the Uni
verse. But it is supreme, and the
greatest joys are still to be ours if
we determine to do our part. We
cannot expect success to come with
out attracting it. We must not be
self-satisfied and consider our pres
ent qualifications sufficient for a
la lifetime. We must continue to
grow and to improve ourselves. For
every loss we sustain there is in us
sufficient life to create new interests
as replacements Adversely never
conquers us; it is our reaction to
adversely which determine whether
we succeed or fail. Until we learn
to overcome impatience and to do
unpleasant tasks cheerfully we can
not create the magnetic power that
will attract to us the better oppor-
tunities. We must have the courage
to go on day by day regardless of the
obstacles and difficulties that stands
in our way. Having overcome them,
continue to plan and to train to do
something more important. When
young people know how to work
skillfully and efficiently they enjoy
it rather than dislike it. The Column
bia theory is that one can get as
much thrill out of business training
as out of baseball, basketball, golf,
or any other game which requires
physical or mental skill. The differ
ence-many games give diversion
and pleasure; business training gives
advancement and profit.
Our Columbia class of 1916 is now
at Commencement. Ready to assume
responsibilities and to use in prac-
teal manner the knowledge and
skill acquired. We send you forth
to meet the challenge in business
life courageously and honorably. We
trust that you will catch a clearer
vision of the Master as you press
forward on life's way. You have our
good wishes and any time we can be
of service to you we invite you to
bring your problems to US We shall
welcome you with the same interest
that we had when we enrolled you
you in Columbia"
