EloTi has many loyal Alumni friend.s

lectual life, finding something ta think
about in books, arts, letters and people.
There are fewer in this class than are
in the first class. This group is curious
to know everything that comes their
way. There are not enough two-story
men.
The three-story men are men who
let in light from above and let out the
mysteries of the soul. This group con
tains men of intellectual outlook and
spiritual insight. Three-story men dif
fer from two-story men by having sky
lights. The five indications of fund
amental insights are: God, freedom,
immortality, gratitude, and reverence.
He declared that there is nothing that
wc can explain without God. God is a
good working hypothesis for all work
ings of life. Responsibility goes with
freedom. Immortality is life ever
lasting. You can measure men by
gratitude. In Dante’s Imferno, the
lowest circle of Hell was reserved for
ingrates. Many people have no sense
of gratitude. Some men use their home
like a pig uses his “sty’’ to eat, sleep
and grunt in. We should be grateful
iij oTir business relations, to our neigh
bors, to the state and cliurch. Ir
reverence is a distressing sign of our
civilization.
Those who missed hearing Dr. Bran
son missed a rare treat. He was one
of the most forcible speakers that has
ever appeared at Elon.
