They should be drilled in achievement. They should be saturated with this spirit of work. It should be a part of their physical and mental equipment. The years of adolescence should be dedicated to the formation of sound habits to stand in good stead throughout life. I fear for those in our schools and universities, who fool away their time in useless social pastime. The growing years are the formative years, and habits and rules of life should be inculcated which remain the dominating quality, regulating their future and determining their good to the world and mankind. I believe that as much liberty as possible should be permitted>he child to determine his natural bent Perhaps, one could call this a period of ■ eiperimentadion, of usefnl experimentation to find oi|t what he is best adapted for. Once, however, this natural inclination has been discovered, the line of the child’s conduct should be fixed toward the aim de i tennined. Severe application to duty ud the cultivation of rules of phi-si-tal and mental conduct ingrained in the individual are imperative needs to enable him to achieve the ends to which he may dedicate his life. Ancestors My ancestors so far back as w* can trace, were devoted to the soil. I come of stock whose long hours in the fields in the region of Bologna tor centuries have developed a race ot sturdy progeny, through whSse ’ wins coursed the blood of countless ’ generations of tireless toilers. Work, vas a heritage passed on from gener- ‘ ation to generation. My father left the soil for the forge and anvil, where Tire and iron knotted the muscles of his sturdy frame. My mother was a tealous searcher and Reacher of wowledge. They have left me a priceless heritage in the body and mind with which I am endowed. Then, above and beyond my acquirpd and natural zeal of work, I have the great aim set before me to make »y people great and to restore to them the glory that was theirs. My ml has been set I look into the futWe and there I see the mark I have fixed.

S oi-n, unrelenting duly transcend all to bind me to my task. There Is , the imperious ''must" compelling the daylong toil to go on. The toil of the day must be done, for tomorrow will bo another day, too, with Its tasks and exactions. Nover shall that which can bo done today be put oil until tomorrow. Even into the night the work continues that today’s work be done today, to leave tomorrow for tomorrow's own toil. The day long I am In action, I vary my effort. This variation Itself permits a diversion of the thought processes so that I make one task the complement of the other, one becomes the repose for tlie other. There is always some one process working when others may be resting. I am therefore constantly producing though all I my faculties may not be in operation. II need therefore ask for no respite. I, j cannot rest. A day’s Idleness clogs and puts my processes out of gear. The short suspension my duty would allow would serve to no purpose. I j either must take a long rest or keep on going. 1 cannot suspend for a long lime, for my life is too full of motion. Each stop requires adjust-! ment. My machine is best whep kept | in action. I am able thus to dedicate i my'life to my work and intend to continue unceasingly and severely at it until tfie end, then it repose there be. I will await it in the great beyond.
