STUDENTS MARSHALED. The students were marshaled by Lieu- of the university cadets Impressive picture with the ge of the trees =2s a back- tenant Colonel Henry de H. Waite, com- mander of the Unive y dets. He was assisted by student ushers in uni- form. Professor W. A. Setchell headed the faculty. Professor Frank Soule, chairman of the committee on arrange- ments, had charge of the whole proces- sion. Among those who marched in the parade and occupled seats on the plat- form were the following regents: A. Britton, A. W. Foster, Charles 8. Wheeler, R. J. Taussig, C. N. Ellinwood, Mrs. Phoebe ‘Hearst and T. J. Kirk. Among the other prominent guests were: Mayor Schmitz and wife, Mrs. George C. Parlee and Mayor-elect Olney of Oak- land. The interfor of the gymnasium was dec- orated with streamers of blue and gold and scarlet. The emblematic colors of | the universities waved side by side, but stitutions are striving for the advance- ment of education in California. President Wheeler acted as chairman. an invocation by Rev. Edgar W. Work. The first number was a seléction by the Choral Soclety, which was greatly appre- clated. President Jordan was then intro- duced. In presenting the head of Stan- ford University to the friends and stu- dents of the University of California President Wheeler spoke of the good feel- ing which exists between the two higher educational institutions. He said in part: JOINED IN ONE CAUSE. It is « truism that all universities are work- ing together in a common cause. It is a truism that California and Stanford are joined in one common cause. The two universitics are working toggther with hearty accord. We feel that the president of Stanford is one of us. It is true that we have not as yet affil- jated Stanford, but, nevertheless, we regard President Jordan as one of us. He will ad- dress you to-day on Americaniuniversity ten- dencles. President Jordan's address was listened to with the greatest of attention. He contended that the aim of educa- tion should be to teach men to act and to do things at the right time. He severe- ly arraigned those who acquiré a univer- sity education merely for the purpose of boasting of it. He advised that the stu- dent who is inclined to loaf and who does not show any disposition of acquiring ad- vanced education ‘“‘should be taken to the edge of the campus and dropped off.” In this respect he referred particylarly to John | there was no enthusiastic rivalry dis- played by those who might have been present from either school. The senti- | ments expressed in the celebration are common to both universitles, and about which there can be no rivalry, as both in- The programme was fittingly begun with | the student who enrolls himself at college | | to become an athlete.

It is another duty of the university to fur- 1 instruments for social need. ‘men who are | ady to act at the right time and who & not afraid to do so. Monarchles needed un versities. Religion needs educated men to ad- | vance Its creeds, and even the lelsure class | | need the university. The people more than | any one else need it. Opportunity, however, does not mean equality. It means equality cf start, but often those who start even are far- thest apart at the end. I belleve that the greatest discovery of the twentieth century will be a geometrical prob- lem—that a straight line s the shortest dis- tance between two noints. This means that the best way to do a thing s to do it, and the best one to do It is the man who knows how. Democracy needs the university and the uni- versity needs democracy. A university never can be perfectly plain unless it has what Lin- coln called “‘a bath of the people.”” Let the university distinguish between pedantry and wisdom. It was said at Oxford, “'Our men are not scholars and our scholars are not men. We sometimes teach men things that they can never use. It has been said that many of our collegze professors if thrown out in the world could not earn a living.. This should not be. They should be the strongest of men. It is the tendency in America to regard those as scholars who can do something. The best | education Is secured where the greatest num- ber of interests are thrown together. The colleges of Europe did not recognize that edu- cated men and women help each other. Emer- son said, bring all the rays of varied genlus | together. HERBERT SPENCER'S WORK. A little book edited by Herbert Spencer did a great deal to revolutionize education. His book was entitled “What Knowledge Is of Most Worth?"* He classed the necessary knowl- edge under five heads: That which concerhs’ man personally which teaches him about him. self; that which concerns his personal life; that which concerns his family life, his duty to his family; that which concerns good citizen- ship; and lastly, the esthetic or his pleasures. Very much of Spencer’s book is ‘true and per- | tinent, but there is one great fallacy running through it and that is the idea that there can be one kind of education good enough for all. I believe that wen should specialize broadly. The patchwork course has given. way to the elective system. And here a difficulty arises In that the loafers pick out the.easiest courses, The university should get rid of all loafers. It should cut thelr heads off, so to speak. The public would greatly appreciate such a move and then rowdyism and dissipation would dis- appear and the university would be the gainer in_every wa: The idea university education is to make men of culture. In France it is to fit men for a position. In Germany it is thoroughness. The German idea prevails {n America. The idea of the American university is coming more and more to be that of effectiveness. It produce men who go out and take hold of things. It is not a mere matter of chance that the mines of South Africa are ‘In the hands of graduates from the University of California and that the mining Australia and South “America Is In the bands of Stanford men. Taken as a whole the American man can accomplish things more readily than: the more thoroughly trained men of Europe. The students in our universities will in time gain in culture and thoroughness, I think, however, that I prefér the stren- uous quality of being able to take hold of and do things. I belleve that the time will come ‘when men from all over the world will come to our universities because of the quality of ef- fectiveness which they impart. ASTONISHING FACT.

I think that we should enrich our courses instead of shortening them. Professor Jordan closed his addre with a quotation to the effect that a unt sity speech met with hearty approval and | was loudly applauded. Governor Pardee spoke earn m 1 the same strain as the pr Stanford. He, too, informed t udents that they are t8 take aciive part in life and to take interest in the af- fairs of the government. He s had found during the three montr tly dent of that received at the university. WORK TO BE DONE. In introducing the Governor, President Wheeler paid owing tribute to his able work. He said that Governor Par- dee, while in office had not bowed to the influence of any man; that he had to his trust and an industrious ser- vant of the people. He pointed to him as an example of what a university man should be and said that Governor Pa performed his work in the true university sense., The Governor spoke in part as follows: beer I hope that the time will never come when any one can say that the presemt Governor of the State has been untrue to his alma mater. hope that the time will never come W the finger of scorn can be pointed at him or through him at a university graduate. 1 be- lleve that there is a great work to be done by the people who are assembled here to-day The time will soon come when the student here will go out Into the world to commence their life work I fear that our alumni do not appreciate the debt of gratitude which they owe to the State; the people who have supported this institution | with their money. During the last three months I have had the discouraging experlence of having men refuse to serve the government. Some of tHem refused gruffly and scme cour- teously. This lesson of disinterest on the part of our alumni has come to me so strongly that I cannot help expressing my thoughts. It may not be In good faith for me to stand here on this occasion and talk in this strain, but this lesson has come home to me again and again and 1 cannot help it. As a loyal son of the university I pray and as a citizen of Califor- nia I entreat you to do your duty to the State. DEBT OF GRATITUDE. We owe a debt of gratitude to the people of California who forty years ago gave up the old College of California, an institution which was dear to their hearts, so that this institution might be made possible. This institution has grown from a small intellectual shrub to a magnificent educational tree. increased from hundreds to thousands. I pray that when the State asks the assistance of the pupils here they will not refuse. At the end of his speech the Governor was given a splendid ovation. Before in- troducing the Governor President Wheeler read a letter from Bernard P. Miller, president of the Alumni. The letter con- tained a check for $1000, which the Alumni had collected during the past year toward the erection of an Alumni building. A year ago, on Charter day, the association presented a check of similar denomina- tion, thus making $2000 now in the build- ing fund. Immediately after the exercises Mrs. Phoebe Hearst entertained a large num- ber of the guests at luncheon, among them being the following named: Governor George C. Pardee and Mrs. Par- dec, - President David Starr Jordan, Mr. and Mrs. C. S. Wheeler, Mr. and Mrs. Louis Taus- sig, Mr. and Mrs. A. W. Foster, Mr. and Mrs. Guy C.
