Vacation Has Come--Grand Sermon ---Fine
Address.
The closing exercises of the Moses
Levi Memorial Institute began last
Sauday morning in the auditorium of
the Institute with the usual religious
service for such ocrasions. The bac
calaureate sermon was preached by
Rev. Gordon I. 'Moore. D. D.. Colum
hi. . C.
The auditorini was 1iiled to o\ver
flowfog, and every detail of the pro
r was carried out excellently. The
choir under the direction of Mrs. .1. L_
Wilson wa; composed of Mesdames
U. C. Gailuchat.. if. J. Uradham. W.
C. Davis. S. I. Till a-ud J. (. Gough,
!essrs.F. .. llichardson. J. L. Wells,
and A. P. Burgess. The singina was
superb. especially the last number "Oh
For a Thousand Toagues to sing." In
this selection there Was a duett very
sweetly rendered by Mrs. J. 0. Gough
and Mr. J. L. Wells. The following
was the program:
Voluntary--All Thy Works Shall
nraise Thee. '
Hymn - -Come Thou Almighty
King."
Prayer-Rev. J. 0. Gough.
Choir selection-"O Come. Let us
Sing."
Scripture Reading-Rev. A. N.
Brunson.
Hymn-"All Hail the Power of
Jesus' Name."
Sermon-Rev. G. B. Moore.
Choir Selection-"Oh. for a Thous
and Tongues to Sing."
Doxology.
Benediction-Rev. G. D. Moore.
The sermon was the utterance of a
student. a master of English. a moulder
of thought and a demonstrator of di
vine teaching. The speaker delivered
his sermon in a manner that impresses
itself upon the mind. He reached with
his forceful and magnificiently rounded
sentences the minds of those of tender
years, and in them he planted seed
which should be fruitful in after years.
Dr. Moore's sermon1was an oration with
out the usual frills, flounces and laces
so common with public speakers. There'
was no aerial flights. no soaring among
the stars, no tripping along silver
brooks, no plucking flowers in the gar
dens of imagination, no tinkling of sil
ver bells, and no feeding the mind upon
perfumed air. But for fifty minutes he
pointed out the vaTue of persistency,
determination, self reliance, work with
a shigh ideal as the goal. The entire
discourse was our conception of true
oratory. The following is a brief syn
opsis of his sermon:
COMMiENCEMENT SERMON.
Subject: 'Personal Value:'" Text:
Luke, 12:L.
The question of personal value is
forced upon our attention as we stand
in the presence of a vast and uncom
prehended universe. Man feels hiss
smallness~and helplesness,and condemns
self-importance as a defect of charac
ter. "W'hat is man that thou art mind
ful of him: I tbe Son of man that thou
visitest him?'" What is one life among
the teeming millions of earth?
Only one question concerning per
sonal value will be considered, viz:
How is it~determined? Three questions
are involved in the determination of'
personal value. First, the whereabouts
or the environment of the person un
der consideration. Secondly, the nat
ural endowments or hereditary advant
ages in the case. Tbirdlv, the element
of personal will.
It makes a difference where one be.
gins life. Environment places a limit
upon the degree of personal value that
is attainable. The individual as such
has no assignable value: his significance
is derived from his social nexus or rela
tions. The particular social order in
volved is important. To be potential
one must appear among a potential
people. Nature in the first place- pro
duces a great brain only among a peo
ple who use their brains and discipline
them in the highest exercises.
The free use of one's own will is de
termining personal value. We are
largely what we choose to be. We are
in a world that stimulates thought and'
that prompts to action and the forma
tion of ideals. This is a land of oppor
tunities and an age of opportunities.
Personal value depends largely upon
the services we render to others It is
enhanced by service to the State, to
society, to the cause of philanthropy
and religion. It means more, perhaps,
to be an American at this time than to
be a citizen of any other land. No
greater opportunities invite.
The old corception of virtue as
strength, an activity of the will in over
coming resistance needs to be revived
and re-emphasized. If life is to be a
rational whole of experience, the ex
pression of a definite value, there must
be no aimless drifiting. Native endow
-ment here is important. Men are born
neither free nor equal: they exhibit
primordial differences that become
more conspicuous as they rise through
voluntary effort into freedom. SomeI
are naturally weak, deficient in the
basic qualities that constitute steadfast
character. There can be no man actual
where there is no man potential. There
must be a man implied from the begin4
ing: some adamant, or at least, grit.
Education, under the most favorable
conditions, creates no new qualities, is
not a process of making something out
of nothing: it is simply making the
most of existing materials. Our ideals
must take account of existing condi
tions. and gather their strength and
inspiration within the circle of pre
scribed and necessary action.
The manhood of Jesus of Nazareth
was illustrated.
The danger to our ideals from impa
tience to succeed in business. etc. Eax
amples illustrating manhood. morally,
intellectually and physically.
After all that may be said of environ
ment-and surely ours is most favor
able-and after ~all claims and allow
anees have been made on behalf of
heredity, each one of us will at least
be an exipression of value in terms of
will and volitional achievement. And'
when the final decision- is rendered as
to our personal value. it will rest upon
the use we have made of our sovereign
plower of self-determination.
Fully 200 people assembled in the
auditorium of the Institute last Mon
day night. and many people turned
away because they could not find stand
in<g room This was the closing of the
sixth scholastic vear' of the Moses Levi
Institute, a large graduating class dis
tinguished speakers. and an excellent!
progran all tended to bring out the
-multitude. and it came. It was a ine
audience.
The essays of Misses Clara Harin
and Pauline Wilson were well prepared:
papers and well read.
The singing of the children was mao'
niticient. The instrumental duett by
Bowman brought forth tmany favorable
expressions from judges of music.

his audienec in a good humor by telling
some liumorous stories. iroceeded to

His -peeelt was full of beautiful patri

of vountry, and reveranee for the
tradit ions of the South. Soace forbids

oration.

I thank you for the compiment. and, it shall be

line of thought then to which I witsh to invite
your attention is putriotism and love of country.
We live in a day and time. when peace like a
-oiden sunbeam is resting over our land. The
ivy of time is entwining- itself around the co!
un. which marks the last resting place of
hitterness and contention. The sons of the blue
and greY are marching shoulder to shoulder.
The Orave men who took part on either side of
the great struggle, which rent us asunder. are
shaking hands across the bloody chasm. and
congratulating each other upon deeds of gal.
lantrr and heroism. leaving as a proud herit
a:e to those of us who have never known but
one ibag and onz country the -rave duty of
honoring the memory of the great lost cause.
and it the same time rendering loyalty to our
native land. and the flag which destiny has
raised over our heads and called our own. As a
child of the South, and one proud of the South's
past record. and of the Confederate blood which
fows in his veins I cannot speak of the past
and fnture, of love of country. of loyalty to the
stars and stripes without first impressing upon
those who hear me the necessity of inculcating
into the youth of our land a veneration for the
lost cause. and indellibly impressing upon their
minds that the South has never done anything
to be ashamed of: and further. that every man
who took part in that great struggle or offered
up his life a living sacrifice upon the altar of
the South was a hero. They should be told too
of their second heroic struggle for supremacy
and honest government in which they conquer
ed' How after staring starvation in the face
and courting death for four long years. they
surrendered when there was nothing left to
tight for or to tight with. How with bowed and
reverent heads they gave one longing glance at
tields of blood and strife, clasped the grimy
hands of the few remaining comrades. bade
them a sad farewell. and turned their weary
steps and tear-stained faces homeward. Tell
them too of that awful home coming to find
dwelling and barn in ashes, marking like mon
umental evidence sacred spots surrounded by
wasted tields and wilderness. And of the
widows and orphans who had nothing left but
the glimmering hope that these weary war
stained veterans, would be able to establish law
and order amid chaos. and create prosperity
amidst wreck and ruin. and general devasta
tion. Nor was their hope in vain. They had
lost. but only for a time. They had been crush'
ed. but not in ambition of purpose. They had
been conquered. but not in soul and spirit: and
with brave and dauntless hearts they faced
the untried foe: fought as men never fought be
fore. and won after long and wear' years of
struggle: and to day by reason of their efforts
throughout the length and breadth of this broad
land of ours. due can always feel a tinge of
pride in saying I am from the South. These
men belonged to a race of heroes. But few re
main to tell the tale of the struggle and hard
ship of those four years and the years preceed
ing. And these few are fast passing away
Day by day they are crossing over the river
into that great bevond where the cannon-s roar
is hushed and stilled, and the bugle sounds no
more. And as one by one they bow their heads
and go marching from the field of battle. the
bivouac of life, to find rest and peace upon
another shore, our hearts should go with them.
and a deep and everlasting gratitude should
keep memory green, because to them we owe
the dazzlng splendour of Southern pride and
prosperity.
It is the duty of every true son and daughter
of the South to mark their last resting place. to
see that their graves are kept as spotless as the
lives they have lived, and to strew them with
towers as pure and 'as beautiful as the record
they made for themselves and for you and for
me.' These things done. and we can then love.
honor and be loyal to the Stars and Stripes.
and teach our children to do likewise:
-'Is there a man with heart so dead.
Who never to himself hiath said.
This is my own. my native land."
There is another pace in our country's his
tory, when the struggle wtis great, the enemy
fierce and the obstacle to be overcome almost
insurmountable. It was in the early days.
When the betautiful fields tiow ladetned with
plenty, were but a mass of undiscovered and
untried jungle and wilderness. When on the
spots now dotted with happy homes, the wild
red warrior, and the fierce Oeast of the forest
ran rampant and held full sway. The brave
men and dauntless women who fought that
fight for civilization in a new and unknown
country. hsve also lef t a heritage upon which
all succeeding generations, can look with pride.
They approached this shore with fear, and
ti ambling, but no sooner had they set foot upon
t~e land which fate had destined to be theirs.
than the noble anglo saxon spirit famous and
predominent the world over triumphed over
their fears, and goaded them on to doing deeds
of heroism and bravery. They sprang like
magic npon the stage of action; strong. vigor
ous, brave and trne. their every fibre tingling
and teeming and pnlsing with energy and en
thusiasm, and then and there a new type of
manhood, the noblest. most courageous, and
sublime was born into the world, and the world
was blessed by its advent. All the essential
elements, physical. political. intellectual and
spiritual were harmonized each to each. be
cause as a beautiful united whole: and thus
impelled by this wonderful motive power of
Anglo Saxon manhood. results were accom
plished that have startled and thrilled the
wod The mighty forest bowed to the stroke
of the axe, and the fierce warlike aboriginees
stubbornly receded from their pathway. And
what a pathway. They have grasped the helm
of civilization. They moved not like a little
rivulet gradually feeling its way. and finally
wasting itself upon the sands. but rather like a
great swollen stream, bursting forth with a
wild crash, and carrying all before it. Forcing
a way through forest and valley, tearing across
the v.ery mountain~s and finding advent beyond.
until they had filled every nook and corner of
this new world with their presence, and made
it respond to the word and wisdom of God and
the will and power of man. The people who did
this, our forefathers, have left this shore, and
time has rolled on. Even the lingering wit
nesses of their glory and their triumph when
they took the new land they had builded. and
the new nation they had founded, and wrested
it from the tyrannical grasp of the mother
country. even these have, long since passed

memories might be enshrined in the hearts of
succeeding generations have come, come to
have their being to live and dwell upon the
face of this beatuti~ful country. so builded by our
forefathers of the South and North alike.
Shai we of the present generation keep alive
sectional bittertiess and contention. and hold
aloof from the rest of our great country. I ans
wer no. because to do so. would mean. that we
have forgotton the generous zeal with which
our people fought. bled and died in that great
struggle for Independence us against the moth
er country- While there has been an estrange
ment between the people of the North and
South. we once met on common ground, and
our fathers were the ancient friends of Mas
sachusets. It was the elbow and shoulder
touch which inspired and nerved the heafet and
strengthened the arm of the men of New Eng
land during the early birth days of our nation.
We of the South have just uas much right to be
proud of the nation's record and the Stars and
stripes, as the people who reside tiorth of the
Mason and Dixion Line. And it should be our
pride and our glory to know that the baniner of
our country is floating as peacefully and tri
umphantly in the South as in the North. That
here in the heart of the South. it will continue
to float upon the wings of heaven, and be fan
ned by the breath of fame "-every stripe bright
and unsullied. every star a dazzling emblem of
the past' long years after you and I have en
tered the great beyond, and ceased forever to
gaze upon its majestic folds. I see in the des

we were rent asunder. Birighter visions of her
future fiash before me. as day by day I mingle
my thoughts and ideas with broad-minded men

You can't always judge a man
by the cigarettes he does not
smoke.
A tramp has one advantage
over the bicycle; his tire never
punctures.
No one ever heard a married
man coax his wife to sing for
him.
