six of tills number received the
Batchelor of Arts degree, three the

well attended, due In part to the re
duced rates on all railroads and part
to the excellent commencement
program. An impressive feature of
the program has been the wearing of
the caps and gowns by the graduat
ing class. This custom has been in
vogue at this place for a long time
and Is always a delightful feature of
the commencement. The commence'
nient orations by the six representa-
' tlves of the senior class this morn

To J. M. Davis Is the unusual dis
tinction of making a Cum Laude on
a B. S. degree. This is the degree
that all medical students take and, it
is Indeed seldom that a man is able
to average 90 on -medicine.
After the-conferring of degrees
and the presentation of diplomas
President Poteat delivered his bac
calaureate address, which was full of
useful advice to the graduates.
Culture and Religion. :
Dr. Poteat's theme was "Culture
and Religion, ' and he said:
In Brittany, that picturesque and
remote corner of France, where the
sea bites hungrily into the land.
where fairy wands are stilt potent
and legend has the semblance and
authority of history, the fishermen
tell the story of a city called Is which
was long ago swallowed up by the
sea. They say that its church spires'.
can be seen in the hollows of the
waves, when the sea is rough, and
in calm weather the.musi of its
churc'a bells can be heard above the
waters. The eminent skeptical
critic, Renan, was reared in this re
gion and in Its narrow and simple
atmosphere took the first steps of his
preparation for the career of a Cath
olic priest. He himself tells us that
at fifteen and a half years of age.
without warning, he was thrust from
the most obscure of little torwns in
the most obscure of provinces into
the Vortex oft all that was most
sprightly and alert in Parisian so
clety, with sights and experiences
as novel to him as if he had suil
denly landed in France from Tahiti
or Timbuctoo. This abrupt trans
planting of the young Breton priest
was the crisis of his career. The
new life elaborate and splendid, the
new religion bedecked with ribbons
and scented with musk, the expand
ing horizon of the new knowledge
were at once fascinating and intol-
erable. For with the idealism and
tenderness of his mystic race, he
loved his mother and his mother's
simple and unperplexed religion, and
tills great Paris in a way compromis
ed both. The passing years '.deepen
ed the contrast between the Chris
tianity of Brittany , and the Chris
tianity of the capital. Both systems
of belief fell more and more into
discredit before his growing; critical
faculty, and were ultimately aban
doned.. He at length counted him
self no longer a Christian. And yet
the Imperious,-and fundamental hun
ger of the heart asserts itselt now
and again, and that early sense of
God and the eternal things, which
is, I apprehend, the essence of faith:
In the recollections of My Youth, he
says, I feel that my existence is
governed by a faith which I ho long
er posless, and, recalling the legend
of the submerged city of the Breton
fishermen, 'I often fancy that I have
at the bottom of my heart a city of
Is with its bells calling to prayer a
recalcitrant congregation."
The brilliant and unhappy French
man has not been alone In finding a
new environment the judge' and. -de-
spoiler of the old. Most men, in
fact, find such transitions difficult
and dangerous in proportion to their
violence. The difficulty lies in mak
ing the adjustment to the new sit
uation, the danger. In the possibility
of losing in the process of adjust
ment some of the treasures of the
past.'.-.' I do not doubt you who pause
here today on the verge of such an
experience as you pass out of college
to your life career, had four years
ago when you entered college , the
same sort of experience had your
freshman difficulties of adjustment,
sophomoric, professorial, and other
difficulties. But I am not thinking
now of your adaption troubles in
particular, but rather of the other
aspect, of transition. I beg to bring
to your attention the peril of the
widened horizon which you have fac
ed in your college .course. We doubt
less agree upon the Important ad
vantage of the larger outlook on man
and nature; I am asking what have
you surrendered to secure it? It has
come dear to some men. They have
bartered for it their native lovt of
beast and bird, the forest, the soil
and all the fair things which spring
out of it, their wholesome joy in the
simple associations of 'their youth
now grown empty and commonplace.
Some have contracted the bookworm
disease, one of whose chief symptoms
Is the loss of the noble capacity or
enthuBlaBm and all vital Interest In
the practical concerns of life. Some,
in the enlightenment ot the wider
vision, have lost the energy of their
narrower faith, and "some have suf
fered the last great disaster they
have lost their faith Itself. How, my
