We baveuot time to stop o nl y to take on and letoffa few pnssengers for we are a bout to go over t he "Loop."

The Loop, which yon have no cloubt r ead of in yo ur guide-books and r ft.ilway folders (it yon have aU. P .

You adm ire, yo n wonder, you are a mazerl , a nd d ~oclare that never was t h ere s nch a combination of natural beauties a nd marvelous feat::; of e ngineering.

But when I pin m yse lf down to tlJe t a~k of giving yo u a n inte lli ge nt id ea on paper of th is paragon , I sigh and fee l very mu ch as the enginee r must bave!'elt wh e n be first l ook ed up the val ley where he was to b uil d t he g reat beau-knot L oop a nd saw t ll e task he had before him. · On lenv ing Georgetow n the tra!n whi zzes throngh a very narrow open in g, a natur al g:tteway, into a beauti f ul park.

The grade, inn com1:ara ti vely straight line from one gateway t o another, is ~o steep t hat it actually baffles tho~e moun tain engineers. But it wo ulcl have IJ een very un-Am eri cau to havE' stopped in the face of ditliculty, that is just the place to go a head. So the Loop was co nstru cted , Lhe end being to gain the altitude too a straight line, by a variety of curves. On entering the v alley th e train ste~ rs off to the left for a couple of ht~ nclred feet. 'then ce it turns to the ri-ght, d esc ribes r. com pl et~ circle, C1'0ssmg itself near the mouth of t h e vR iley on a 11 igh bridge - just where iL entcrerl, but 200 feet hi g her ! That circle an d crossing proper:y constitute tlte Loop but the train steams on Jirst on one dicle of tile vDl ley, up overw belmi ng grades, back and ov<'r. over and back , until tile seconcl gateway has been g:t i necL We gaze baek over t he vBlley, d,own bundrecls of feet, and c<way below us through the .first gateway we see Georgetown. O h, it is a famous p icture!

I'll d ec lare my paper is giv ing out. But i t is not as distressing as it m ig ht be lor I was iust about to finish.

There is not m u ch of specia l intereo t after the Loop.

We pass ~ilvcr Plum<', a little mining camp and trav el~ ing o n fo r e leven miles thro ug h mountains of undiminis hed proportions, we arrive at th e end of the road Ureymo unt. H ere you are at the fi)ot of Grey'~ Peak, 14·,34J, feet hi gher even than old Pike.

La France par ses genies a impose sa langue a !'Europe et aujourd'hui si, au milieu de ses defaites, elle commande encore, c'est par la puissance de ses ecrivains, dont les reuvres sont traduites dans tous les idiomes, dont lesidees gouvernent le monde. Les lettres sont les derniers vestiges de la grandeur de la France_ Si la litterature franyaise a taut d'attraits pour les etrangers, a conibien plus forte raison pour nous, a qui elle rappelle tous les charmes du foyer, toui un pa<~se de gloire. Quoique la langue franyaise ne nons soit pas indispensal•le en ce pays, c'est un luxe dont

LA GENEROSITE. G.

G.

(1 71)

Mesdames & Messieurs.

Le createur en formant le camr de l'homme y a depose le germe d'tme grande et precieuse qualite; une qualite qui fait naltre dans son ame les plus nobles et magnanimes sentiments, qui remplit ses yeux de l_armes a la vne des mise res de ses semblables, qui fait tomber de ses mains les plus touchants secours, et qui, lors·1u'elle s'eleve dans un elan sublime, transforme l;homme en heros et en martyr. L'amertume des sacrifices se change pour elle en douceur ineffable, les epreuves du devoilment en attraits irresi!'ltibles. Cette qualite, que vous possedez a un si haut. degre, MM. ne vo\1s est pas inconnue; tout en vous vous dit, vous erie, c'est la generosite, cette fille de la chn.rite, cette fleur incomparable du cceur hnmain!

La generosite depuis des siecles a accompli des amvres qui proclament partout son excellence, · sa grandeur et sa gloire, mais elle n'a r as touj?nrs f ait sentir sur la terre son aimable empire. Il fut un temps o\1 l'egoisme regnait en mattre, foulait aux pied~ le~ a~pirations les plus genereuses, tyrannisait l'hnm;mite presqu'entiere : ce temps d'eternelle honte, c'est I' ere ne£aste du paganisme.

L'antiquite avait dit: "L'espece humaine est nne proie qui appartient au plus fort;" et elle s'effor<;a de •erifier cette cruelle parole dans toute son etendne, avec une sauvage barbarie. L 'immense esclavage qui pesait sur les pays les plus civilises et la maniere ontrageante dont on trat!l-it les esclaves montrent que t onte fraternit.e humaine avait disparu de Ia terre.

Dans Athe1~es, dans Rome plus des deux tiers des habitants etaient esclaves et employes a exploiter la sensnalite de !'autre tiers qui ne cherchait qu 'a jouir, qu 'a se satisfaire. · Et les debitenrs et les pauvres comment etaient-ils · traites? avec un auss i erne] mepris: La loi pennettait au creancier de mettre en pieces le corp~ de son debiteur insolvable. Et les pauvres, aujourcl'hni, portion cherie dn troupeau du Christ, etaient alors appeles des animaux impurs: on insultait i1 leur pauvrete, et, pour s'en debarasser, un empereur en fit charger trois vaisseaux qn 1il fit couler en pleine mer. Voila qu'elle etait Ia societe quand le flambeau de Ia £oi brilla sur Ie rr:onde: exclusion entiere de la hienveillance et de Ia charite, regne t.romphant de l'inrlividual is me et de

t ; rannie! La f.Cr.e rcsi ie ei ait bannie de tous les differ ;nts rapports sociaux: il .n 'en existlAit aucune eutre Ie soav erain et 1e sujct, entre Ie pere et !'enfant, entre le maitre et le serviteur, entre le riche et le pauvre. l\fais quand le plus grand acte generosite qu 'aient jam nis vu les siecles fut consom nre sur le Golgotha, un e n\voluti(ln complete s'opera dans les idee" dans les sen Limen ts. Le Christianisme developpa la gener .s ite dans le coour de l'homme. C'est sous sa vivifiap.Lc inlluen ce qu'ell e s'est epan ou"iedans toutesa beauue, qu ·enc a exhale dans toute les classes de la societe lies parfums suaves de dou ceur et d'amour. Car la m tssion de l'Eglise, comme ce lle de son Auguste f'lildateur, est de traverser les ages en faisan.t le uien. Il but que ch acun de ses pas dans son maj estueux peleri11age sur cette terre de douleurs, soit marque par un bienfait nouveau. Et, pourrait-il en etre autremei1t :' L'Eglise est nee de la ch arite eternelle de Dieu, et tout ce qu'elle enfan te porte le sceau du de I'Ouement et le cachet de la misericorde ! Elle produit des actes gew3reux et aimables de mille especcs . pour le so ulagement, le profit et 1'avancement de la granrle famill e hum aine, des actes tels que les ames t:rivees des lumieres celestes n'auraient jamais pu co ncevo ir! Y auraieut-ils seulement songe, ces etres iuforl uncs qui n 'etaient deriges que par des motifs e6ois~es et personnels ?

A h! qu and les yeux se sont detournes d'horreur a l a vue du spectacle qu 'offmit le colosse paien rouge au c<.e ur par le chanere hi,deux de l'egoisme, avec quelles del ices ne se reposetit-ils pas sur le Christiauisme a son aurore! Qn'il est beau alors de voir Ia religion naisstmte tendre de toutes ses forces a former le caractere devoue, COurtois et heroique du Chretien, a 1ui inspirer des actions de cette espece de generosite qui semblent sl. ch annantes, parce qu'elles sont cach~es so us le voil e pudique de l'humilite; car la foi chretienne apprencl au x hommes la philantropie et la li>h·alite, non par ostentation , mais pour !'amour d'un l>ien et par !'idee si belle qu 'il vaut mieux donner qu e recevoir!

Jl n 'es t pas possible, Mesdames et Messieurs, de derouler a vos reg;trds les merveilles innom brables qu6 !a generosite chretienne a accomplies: c'est une chaine infinie de bienfaits ! Tan dis que l'antiquite pendant des mill iers d'annees n'a pas offert un seul exemple d'une institution de bienfaisance, le Christianisme a eleve partout ou il lt paru des a.siles a tous ler:: maux, a toutes les douleurs ! LPs orphelins ont trouvedeR anges pour les aimer co~~ne auraient. fai~ l~nrs meres; les vieill ard<> ont vu s clever le l01t ou 1ls rendront en paix le dernier soupir; les pau vres ont reyu le pain de chaque jour; la jeunesse de la classe indigente a puse gratuitement les lumieres ala source des science·,

les malades ont senti un adoucissement a .'leur.s souffrances; Ie captif sl!lr Ia terre ~tran~he ·i¥iVU btiser ses ch aines; le soldat blesse sur le charttp deS· ba~ailles a cru recevoir en expirant les caresses d'tute soour!

- Ou;, il n'est pas une mi><ere qui n'ait eM secmnu, pas une plaie qui n'ait ete pansee, pas ilile httme qui n'ait ete essuyee! La femme chretienne a lut·h~ avec l'homme de generosite et d'heroisme. On a vu des religieux, m1~nqu ant d'argP-nt patit· tacheter la liberte des captifs, se f ., ire capt!fs ew:x-memes! On a vu des religieuses- de faibles fertn:nes~vuler sur le champ de bataille, au milieu du feu et de la mitaille, pour prodiquer Ies soins les plus ten4.tes aux g11erriers mourants! Ces hommes et ces femn1es que la £oi a end us si grands, si sublimes, n e son t--ee pas la des martyrs de la generosit~ !> De nos jours, Mesdameset Messieurs, nou.savons ete encore temoins d'un acte d'une philantropieadmirahle.

Une puissance- il n'y a que .quelques instants la. premiere du monde- s'est vue accabl~e <;Ous Je poids du plus inol:li et du plus epo uvantable revers. Apres une lutte desastreuse, mais heroique, elle est tombe ~, comme une proie entre les mains d'un ennemi barbare qni a fait couler son sang a fiots et l'a voilee de deuil et d'inconsolabies tristesses. Mais cette immortelle vaincue dans sa desolation et ses poignante-; doul eurs a ete l 'objet des sy mpathies et des dons fraternels des deux mondes. Tous les pays, toutes les' nations o t voulu repan~re sur ses blessures le baume adoucissan t de la compassion et de la: charite.

Mais, Mesdames et Messieurs, · pour trouver des exemplt>s de generosite, ilu'est pas necessaire de parco urir tons les pays, tousles siecles: dans ce lieu meme, a cette heure m~me, vous, honnorables citoyens de Bourbonnais, 11 'accomplissez-vous pas un acte tout de bienfaisan ce? Et puis tout pres d'ici, ce temple eleve au Seigneur, ces deux maisons consacrees.a !'education de ]a jeune:>se, ne sont-ils pas les monuments glorieux de votre munificen ce et de vntre liberalite ?

Oui! ch<tcune de leurs pierres proclament le nom d'un d'entre vous !

Ah! Mesdames et Messieurs, si ce soir nons vous avons pl)-rle de Ia genru:osite, ce n'etait pas pour vous ]a faire connaitre, mais c'est que nos ereurs ne pouvaient se taire plus longtemps ala vue de tant d'oouvres d'admirable charite que vous operez tons les jours; c'est que nos coours, tout debordant de. gratitude, voulaient s'epancher dans Ies votres si bons, si devo.ues. · Aussi, soyez as'iures que jamais l'oubli n'effacera de nos jeunes memoires le touchant souvenir de vos bonte;;, et que toujours toutes nos voix, n'en faisant qu'une seule, diront: amour, honneur reconnaissance · eternelle a nos genereux bien£aiteurs!

the importance of an aim in life is present, and who dwell o~ the subject with ca.re and attention, but who, nevertheless, are at a great loss bow to act or where to steer their drifting bark and who float along the stream of life anxious t o reach a port of' safety, but nndeciued as to· where it is to be found.

Thus for the:>e there is a problem which, while it is comparatiYely tri1·ial to the multitude, is of the greate t importance to the indi 1·irlual who feels that the happiness of a life- time depends on its proper sol ntiou.

Students aho'"e all otlters haYe the best meatHi of weighing well their capaeities and judging as to the best meaus of employing th em. Their employments are w dil·erse tltat they ha1·e fnll scope for diorts in different branches of ~tncly; they have tlte ach·antagcs of as~ociation with students of varied ta!-\tc::; and abiliti es ; all mdinary mean s m·e at their clispo,;al and shonl<l they lea1·e college after several years stay, without ha1·ing soll'ed the problem of theit· futttre, tltey ha1·e certainly made poor lt se of their time as they ha1·c gi1·en little tvidence of so und judgement. :fi:[orco>·er they have perhaps 11eglected the best opportunity of their li1·es to clear up tbat little my::tery whidt hang,; around them, m1d goi ng forth ft·o:u college a ai tnl ess as they entered it, tbey hnse already SO II·n the seed,; of an airn_less life which 1\ill end in obscmity if not in actual clistruetion of the social and moral11tan.

It is on ly when we consider the intpurtanee of our future comde in life th at we shall k~ leJ ·to consider it maturely and that 1re shall be enable to devise means of deciding the question successfully.

Tltere can ne;·er be difficulty on onr part regarding opportunities for the exercise of om talent.

The chances are i nnnmerable for those wlw are (lnalificd. Y et there is one important consideration to he made ~mel that is that thongh very talented we are hy natm·e p u· ~ i~nlarly ti ttecl for some one branch of indnstry, or for a certain profession. \Ve all have onr ta. te:>; arid judgment and circumstances to some exteitt must do the rest.

Does it not seem then after lt little reflection that we can only be snccessful when we ha1·e some aim in view or when we striYe to attain some place in life That which ·we prefer we seek continnally, and conseqnently we take the means to secnre it. Hence onr efforts are directed more intelligently; we devdop more power by making such continued ef'ort:1 and

143

hence many immediate advantages are derived; but above all, the end on which so much depends, is in all probability sure to be attained .

I know, as my life grows older, And tnine eyes have clearer sight, That under each rank wrong, somewhere There lies the root of right, That each sorrow bas its purpu e, By the so rrowing oft'uugnessed; Bnt as sure as the sun brings morning \Vhatever is, is best,

I kuow that each sinful action As sme as the night brings shade, Is so metime, somewhere, punished Tho' the hour be long delayed, I know that the soul is aided Sometimes by the hearts unrest, And to grow means often to suffer; \VhateYer is, is best.

I know there are no errors ln the g reat Eternal plan, And all things work together For the final good of man.

And I know when my soul speeds onward In the grand Eternal quest, I shall say as I look earth word, "Whatever is, is Lest.
