Lewis Browne of At-y-'a- ca., the greatest credit is due. pr.-? possible this magnificent St-1 i ,iS!,';S-2 treat, and responding to his i?r : feeling of loyalty to a nold friend, he came from Atlanta to the aid of Very Rev. Father Guinan, S. M. He has certainly stirred up the enthusiasm of the lovers of music here. His manipulation ma-nipulation of the organ is something wonderful. He plays upon it so feelingly, feel-ingly, so expressively, at one time wooing, yet another time throwing into it all the passionate ardor of the master, and the organ responded to the master's touch and gave expression expres-sion of his inmost soul. Dr. Browne is today one of the world's greatest oragnists, one of the world's best musicians. mu-sicians. The following young gentlemen graduated and received the degrees placed after their names: Arthur C. Sulilvan, Ogden, Utah-Bachelor Utah-Bachelor of Arts. Henry J.

The valedictory address was most clearly enunciated and feelingly delivered deliv-ered by Mr. Arthur C. Sullivan, B. A. He spoke as follows: Valedictory. Tonight, as we realize that for the last time we meet as students of All Hallows, a flood of feeling rushes over us and seems, as it were, to inundate our very soul, and borne along o'er the waves of memory come back the happy scenes of college days when life was calm and tranquil as the summer sum-mer days glided along "Like the waters that water the woodland." wood-land." But new we must bid farewell to all these happy scenes.. However, before we sever the bonds that unite us in friendship here, it is but meet that we give expression to the gratitude that fills our hearts. Towards you, our beloved President, the debt is overwhelming. For you have striven not only to train our intellects, in-tellects, but to develop what is greatest great-est in man a noble and lofty character, charac-ter, and we who have come within the range of your magic influence have felt that with a master's hand you have touched the chords of being and insensibly you have blended our lives in grander harmony and greater beauty. Rev. Faculty, as we stand tonight upon the threshold of a new exist-' ence, our memories linger on the words- of wisdom that have falleh from your lips, and recall to mind those lofty ideals in accord with which you have ever striven to mould our characters. No more , shall we listen to your warning voices; no more shall we hear your gentle chidings, but as we go forth tonight from the hallowed walls of our Alma Matei;, it is with the firm resolve to be true to 3'our holy teachings, to follow the exampley ou have ever given us to tread the pathway path-way of duty, even though it lead to the" valley of shadows, and in the end God should see fit to crown our brows with the thorns rather than the laurels. lau-rels. "We are more and more deeply impressed with the true conception of duty you have ever shown. To gain success in life we must keep in mind the lessons, both theoretical and practical, prac-tical, which you have ever taught us, and when prosperity has crowned our efforts your teachings will stand . as the foundation of alL Fellow Class-mates, my lips refuse to bid you a last farewell. We have long been joined together in a relationship rela-tionship of common aims and interests; inter-ests; day by day our friendship has grown stronger and we have learned to esteem one another. And when tonight to-night will be but a dream of memory, we shall look fondly back on the days spent together in All Hallows. Only then will we realize that life here was but a fanciful reverie; then we shall have reached reality. - The path of life Is not smooth. It Is beet with many obstacles, and we must tread it unflinchingly. Tonight, at the end of our college course, we have achieved a triumph it remains to be seen whether or not our hopes of future success will be fulfilled. Friends attend us anxiously and prayerfully pray-erfully during our journey through life and if our lives are crowned with the" choicest blessings of God, it will be to them a cause for rejoicing; if our progress is overcome, with ob stacles, they will share our sorrow. Dear Alma Mater, we now leave you to enter the duties of active life; to you we ascribe whatever honors succeeding suc-ceeding years may bring, and when in after days we're weary by the cares and solicitudes of a busy world, our hearts will long to seek repose within your sheltering walls. A list of the other honors gained will be given in our next issue. |
