Graduation Time Approaches
A late great Southern jurist, Judge H. M. Carwood, once said, in addressing a graduating class: "The world you are about to enter is a stern world; but is a world of stern beauty, ever ready to welcome the true soldier of intellect, who shirks no duty, and who fears no foe."
We are being reminded on every hand that graduation time approaches for the students of the nation. All over this lhnd thousands of young men and women will soon accept those sheepskin testimonials of their years of labor in schools and colleges, and will turn wide-eyed to the great world, asking in their hearts that tragic question: "And what now?"
Tell them the truth-a truth that will cast no shadow of gloom over their spirits-which is that a mighty world awaits them, AND NEEDS THEM. Tell them that there never was a time when a greater premium was being offered for strong men and women; or when the world needed them more.
Tell them that there will be greater human progress in the next fifty years than in the wonderful last fifty and that theirs is the golden opportunity to share in its unfolding. Tell them that human ingenuity and invention hasn't really started yet, and that only those who cannot see the forest for the trees, think otherwise.

Tell them that their heritage lies in the vast rescrvoir and accumulation of human blessings yet to be discovcred and perfected. Tell them that there are countless nccessar.v things yet to be done; innumerable mighty problems for the benefit of humanity yet to be solved; countless amazing ideas yet to be unfolded; marvelous avenues to distinction and glory beckoning from the horizon of the future to every young man and wo-tn with brains and ambition and courage and staying qudities.
This is true regardless of what direction their ambitions may lead them. It is true in business, in industry, in tte arts, the sciences, in literature, in music, in mccbanics, and lines too nulnerous to repcat. In thcsc days, as in dl days gone by, th.e results will dcpend on ttc qudity and quantity of the effort made to succeed. There is no royal road, no easy road, to success of any sort. There ncver has been.
