ADES4BS AY ALUMN. Ool. Hobbs and Dr. Oampbelk Repreos bnting Literary Societies of New berry College. Notwithstatiding the heavy rain, a large crowd atteided the exercises in the opera house on last Tuesday night. Chief Justice Y. J. Pope, of the si preme court of South Carolina, pre sided, and addresses were delivered by Col. John F. Hobbs and Rev. R. E. Campbell, both of New - York city, and both alumni of the college-. The exercises took the place of the annual address to the - literary societies. While at college Rev. Mr. Campbell was a'membar of the Excelsior society and Col. Hobbs a member of the Phrenakosmian society. The exercises of the evening were opened with prayer by Dr. . 0. J. Kreps. Chief Justice Pope said he appre ciated very highly the honor confer red upon hiM and. in well Qhosen words he -introduced the speakers, the first of whom, was the Rev. R. E. Campbell, . of -Now York City. Mr. Campbell was graduated, at Newberry Ollege; thirty years Vgo. He remem ber4d gratefully, reverently the teabheirs qf a generation ago. -There were giants and pedagogues in those days. Education meant discipline from start to finish and it was unnecessary for him to say that the tendency of the age was toward throwing off all restraint, too much toward the practi cal, toward type-writing and type written men and women. Culture of a certain brand could always be had, but plated metal would never stand the wear and tear of time like the real stuff. He believed in discipline, and he did not believe in cheap education or cheap religion. He struck the first key-note in this jubilee time. Back to the spirit of the old school masters. He thanked God for the wealth and benediction of the old academy. Back upon the jubilee tide to the first beginnings. Since the establishment of New berry college had been witnessed fifty of the greatest years in the his tory of the world. As the middle ages were threatened by military feudalism, so a vast and plausible commercial feudalism threatened the foundation of society today. As a loyal alumnus he was willing to pray and to work for his foster mother. Not only were coins of the realm needed but also the shekles of the sanctuary. He wanted to leave three ideals: First, love of manliness; second love of justice, of sweet reasonableness. There were many good people in the world who were good for nothing, and much higher education that was out of sight. Third, love of the best. Love the best in life. The pest people were those who placed humanity above riches and education above empire. T1he~ message which he brought tonight was Excelsior. Col. John F. Hobbs, of New York City, next introduced by Chief Justice Pope, said he would undertake to de liver a fifty years' speech in twenty minutes. Hei would talk briefly up on the human pachine, mental and physical. The ideal man, the body with perfec.t spirit, was in the image of God.' As a mnatter of fact men were born most unequal, phlysically, mentally and morally. * Col. H-obbs discussed the human machine at some length treating his subject in a manner which was at once happy and forceful, Hie spoke of the work accomp)lished fou New b)erry college by the old Phrenakos min society. In his discussion of the human machine lhe said the deepest problems had been solved by those who burned the midnight oil, showing the folly of the old maxim, ''Early to bed and early to rise,''. which was wvritten by a lazy dreamer whmo was still in bed at nine o'clock in the morning. He took occasion during his address to denounce the great trmhats. Hie said there was no disguising the fact that the present rush and hurry methods of instruction were .largely responm sible for the nervous disorders of thme women of America. But this mental overstrain was not confined to the ~gentle sex. To the doctor and the teacher he committed the human machine. He had come from New York be eause he loved the college, because he v ~as a sountherner and loved the south. He hoped in the years to come it might be so lie could come at least every other'year to witness the comb mencement of this grand old institu tioni of learning.
