After the responsive reading and a praver by Boys Secretary Knowles, a brief and helpful address was delivered by Rev. B. A. Legg of Trinity Methodist church. lin part the speaker said: I want to speak to you today on the subject of “Ambition”” Ambition may Dhe used in 2 Wrong way as well as a right way. but of course we all want to use it in the right wa: Anyone whe has no ambition is cer- tainly abnormal; every Nvimg thing has ambition if it is mermal. The trees show their ambition as they push out their leaves and their branches; I remember the squash vines had ambition to spread them- selves outside their own patech ,and no normal calf is satisfied to stay in its own pasture. Abraham Lincoln had great ambition and it was of the right kind; he had ambition to serve his country in a way that fed men have served their country; Theodore Roosevelt was am- bition in the right way, and America feels the good results of his noble am- bitions. It may sound strange for me to_ say that Jesus Christ has an ambition, but he had it in a very large way; his ambition was to serve the race; to lift men from the low and impura life to.4> high and holy life, and he has that ambition now, and that is the kind of ambition He expects uys to have, namely, to do all in our power to make. tnen bettcs. 1 hope your ambi- tions will always be of the right sort. and that more and more yYou will be ambitious to serve God and your fel- low! n. After the Tunch which was served ladies, the men in turn gave the name of the state in which they wera born and what their state was noted for: this_proved interesting. Mr. illiam Henry Allen, a director of the . M. C. A. was present and gave the fellows a greeting.
