ADVICE AT PARTING Baccalaureate Sermons to Augus tan a and High School Graduates. WISE W0ED3 OP PEOF. SODEEQRIH Points Out the Path That Brings Success andllappiness Commencement. This li commencement week at Augustana College and Theological seminary. It is the 4 1st commence ment of that institution, which this year is sending out the largest classes in its history. The lycenm entertain ment Saturday evening marked the beginning of a busy week for the fac ulty and students. Last night the baccalaureate sermon to the classes of the collegiate, theological and nor mal departments, who are to ba grad uated this week, was preached al the college chapel by Prof. C. J. Soder gren, of the faculty. It was a mas terful discourse and was listened to attentively throughout its delivery by the large audience. The speaker chore for his text IIeb:12:l. To do without God," said Mr. Soder gren, "is the crime of the ceutur res, and man is the criminal. Our rebellious 'no' to God's fatherly and benevolent 'yes1 has the blasphemy of a free will, creating sin and plunging us into that death which is separation from the living God, and its unutter able iuin, darkness and woe. But God, the unsullied God. kindled a light in the darknes3. Its. beams glimmered amid a chosen race as a lamp shin'mg in a dark place until the day dawn.1 In the fulness of the times a day pprung from on h gh hath visited us to shine upon them that 6it in darkness and the shadow of death to guide our feet into the way cf peace.' " A Race for Life. 'A Race for Life' shall be the theme Dt our sermon tonight." con tinued Mr. Sodergren, "suggested by the passage chosen as text for this occasion, and this we propose to treat under the following divisions: First, the exhortation; second, the condi tions; third, the incentive, and fourth, the goal of the race. The exhortatlou comes from God. lie wishes to gain oar love, and love will not be coerced. Nothing can become the eternal pos session cf a soul except by conscious and voluntary choice. Another coa lition cf success is endurance. We are not sprinting. A short-winded sprint is not enough. We are engaged in a century run. Impediments of all kinds will re encountered. Hell nizh impossible barriers will be thrown across your paths. Instead cf life becoming impov erished and barren it is being tilted with the riches of eternity. Gd never takes anything away without giving something inhnitely better in its stead. The cider leaves of winter only give place to the new leaves of spring, and the sunset in our conti nent is the sunrise in another. We have a strong incentive to per severance and endurance in 'being compassed about with so great a cloud of witnesses.' - f UtttiQ th Jol. "The goal is heaven, not as a dis tant place, but as a high condition and state of mind, soul and body. Onr race is not locomotion, but sanc'ification. To be Christ-like is heaven, and when conformed to His image we shall be where He is. Pur ity of heart, perfected love and ex alted wisdom, these are the joys of heaven, and not the streets of gold or the jasper sea. though the sur rounding will correspond to our state of heart. The reward is not for what we have done or become, but for what Christ has become and done f jr us and in us. Bath are the vicarious work of Christ. The merit and glory are Hie, and still 'He holdeth our crown in His bands.1" Pi of. Sodergren in turn addressed each claes personally, congratulating them upon the completion or their college work and giving them some wholesome aavice as 10 ineir iuiure.

Baeealaaraat Sermon Prrmcbed Wj ICav. , W. S. Marquis. Rev. W. S. Marquis, of the Broad way Presbyterian church, delivered the baccalaureate sermon before the eraduating class of the high school last evening. He took for bis text ! Saul's words. "Lord, what wilt thou have me do?" and upon it preached mon. He said: "Saul of Tarus facid a new feature when he asked that ques tion. It was a momentous hour for him and for the world. It is ever a momentous hour when a human soul determines what it will do. Deeds are the fruit cf education, of nature, of all the influences and purposes of j the soul; therefore they will reveal and Ox the character' and destiny.) this class oi ui Dai caosen ur us motto 'Spectemur Agendo" (let us' be seen by onr deeds), it is a loyal motto, and though coined by tome old Rowan it is one singular! appro priate for this day and age. It is an ago of activity. Every door is open and voices are" calling. The youth of the lind feel the energy of Anglo Saxon blood stirred by the tonlo of opportunities unparalleled. The Important Question. "The important question for you at this juncture is 'ijoru, wnat win rnou have me do?' Surely this is a ques tion which should be referred to the higher power of guldauce Do noth ing until you are ready to do the right thing. Panl was made to wait and learn in silence for years. "There is no surer way of finding one's place than in the doing of the next thing, the proving oi one s worth and ability in tho service that (rod en trusts with you. Do what is asked of you if it is honorable to do it. "Start in life with the golden rulo as a working motto. Do not let selti-jhncss make you a slave. He who thinks only of self and gathers only for self, destroys that very self for which he strives. "Use what has been entrusted unto you. The state has spent money for you in giving you an education They have given you knowledge, training, increao of pleasure, ideals; use them." PERSONAL POINTS. Frank P.
