to leap on the platform to crowd
about him. but with the aid of three

In the principal address, Dr. Buell

warned the graduates against com
promising with their ideals when
they “enter a world which exalts
vices,”

“swinish” any university that at
tempts to teach its students to con
form, instead of trying to make
them direct their efforts to change
the world.
