R'.shop Kilgo made a most Impressive and beauttful talk to the young men and amnion Ha .isIf! that sentist to the securing-of- a-right education was that the student be teachable. He admitted that teachableness was a passing . virtue, bu* declared that it was nevertheless one of the highest of virtues, because a man can. never impart knowledge or anything else until he has permitted it to b* imparled to him. Bishop Kilgo exhorted the students to be' teachable. He also ugred them with great eloquence to be ogrrtest.j to be enthusiastic, to be clean, and finally to gain and retain a companionship of the Holy Spirit. After Bishop Kilgo's appeal to thr? students/ Dr. Tew made a short speech of welcome to the students, both old and new. He expressed it u his hopes that all the mea atTrliT Ity were trae seekers after enlightenment and were not coming to college from M7 ulterior motive, as men with the latter purpose In vlow were not tolerated at Trinity. The greater part of the day war spent In tnatriculattng and arranging of courses of the upper classmen while the freshmen whre undergoing the entranoei examinations uulrementa.
