"There are three things that every
person in college should expect fromj
that experience," said Hon. Newton D.
Baker, former secretary of war under
Woodrow Wilson, in his address at the
closing convocation of the fall series
Sunday morning. "These things are:
an added capacity to earn a living,
higher capacity for being a good citi-
zen, and a sideline or hobby of an in-
tellectualacharacter."
Continuing his exposition of the
things that college should be expect-
ed to give those people who availed
themselves of the opportunity which
was being offered them, Mr. Baker de-
clared that the civilization of the pres-
ent age is inadequate for the problems
of the present day when it is compared
to the education of a generation past.
"Our education cannot keep pace with
the advance of civilization in the pres-
ent clay," Mr. Baker said. "The man
who leaves college today thinking that
his education is complete is going to
find himself sadly in the rear in but
a few years. The man wlo leaves col-
lege today must leave it on the run,
and he must be running in the direc-
tion that is being taken by our pro-
gress. If he does not do this he can-
not long considerhimself educated."
Defines Edueated'Man.
As an ideal of education, Mr. Baker
quoted the definition of the president,
of Western Reserve university whol
said that "the educated man is the
man who maintains his judgment in
the presence of unsolved problems."
Mr. Baker defined the problems of,
the age as being ones of greatly in-
creasing intricacy. "My generation,"
he said, "has raised the greatest mat-
erial civilization that this world has
ever known. But we have neglected
too many things of'importance in the
effort to accomplish this. The spir-
itual advance must come in your age.
We have been too bsy doing things
which seemed to us to be important.
But it is your generation that must ac-
quire the necessary component of this
material advance and must make with
the happy combination of these two
elements a really great and lasting
civilization."
In outlining the things that the past
age has neglected and which the pres-
ent age must make its own concern,
Mr. Baker set forth the following: in-
dustrial adjustment; racial adjust-
ment, and international adjustment.
Under these three heads he found the
solution to most of the problems which
vex the leaders of the world today.
Must Recognize Leaders.
Following up the suggestion in
speaking of the leaders of the world
Mr. Baker spoke shortly of the pros-
pects for the United States and the
things that it must do. "The critical
test of a democracy, and the things
upon which its suecess depends, can
come only when the people clearly
recognize their real leaders in life.
This is the thing that the United
States must do, Mr. Baker said in
closing.
The speaker was introduced by
Courtland C. Smith, '28, president of
the Student council. The soloist for
the morning was Robert Graham, S.
of M., and the accompanist was Cass-
ius Jolly. also of the School of Music.
The convocations are in the hands
of a special committee appointed by.
President Clarence Cook Little. John
Snodgras, '28E is chairman of the
committee. Dr. Frank E3. Robbins as-
sistant to the president of the Univer-
sity, and James Inglis, a member of
the board of trustees of the Michigan
School of Religion, have given inval-
uable aid to the members of the com-
mittee.
A series of spring convocations are
planned by the committee. These will
be handled in a little different manner
frbm the present series in that the
speakers will'not come in consecutive
fashion but will come at different in-
tervals throughout the semester.
Plans have been completed and an an-
nouncement of the program will be
made sometime in the near future.

48,000 hunting licensea issued. This
year apparently the same number
were shot, but there was an increase
to 60,000 licenses issued.
Professor Whitney made the inspec-
tion trip in company with P. S. Love-
iov of the department of conservation
who has Pharge of the game refuge'
ystpm It was made during the last
week of the deer-hunting season which
? ns just closed. Refuges visited in-
,'liide the losco, Montmorency, Otsego,
I'rawford, Ogeniaw, and Gladwin, allj
located in counties of the same name.
Few violations were observed dur-
ing the trip Professor, Whitney said.
No man is allowed within A game
refuge during the hunting season, ac-
cording to a statute, except the game
warden. The state police inspected
all automobiles on highways coming
from the hunting grounds, a custom
started for the first time this year.
That and the fact that only one buck
is allowed per person with no does or
fawns, has kept illegal shooting at a
minimum this year, Professor Whitney
said.
There was a marked decrease in the
amount of deer taken out of game
refuges this year as shown by the in-
spection trip . Tb - -a seNplained as
resulting from t t',snow in the
southern peninsula which made it
difficult to track the animals, and in
the northern peninsula through the
excessive amount of snow early in the
season, which kept the hunters out
of the woods.

There appeared in a recent issue
cf the Michiganr, Alumnus, a section
of Prof. Claude H1. Van Tyne's speech
entitled "The Struggle for Truth
About the American Revolution"
which has a bearing on the recent
events in Chicago, where Mayor
Thompson has been leading an attack
on certain of the high school Ameri-
can history texts.
Professor Van Tyne's speech was
first given last spring in the Moses
Chamber of the House of Lords while
he was in London, holding the Sir'
George Watson Chair of American
History, Literature, and Institutions.
It is one of the series of six address-
es which he delivered while in Eng-
land,
Professor Van Tyne shows that the
great conflict has been between popu-
lar tradition and the results of schol-
arly research; with the interest of the
so-called patriots in keeping alive the
old unreasoning hate of England, pro-
viding another obstacle against which
the scholars have fought. These
groups he says are all supported by
born fundamentalists, and no appeal
to reason or historical sources seems'
to reach them.
He tells of the partiality with which
the immediate contemporaries of thq
Revolution told its story, but in 1876
the trained investigators began to
get at its truth and uncover new data.
"It was then that the histories of the
Revolution became studies of the on
gin and growth of American institn
tions, honest efforts to learn the tru
of a great epoch in the world's hi
tory," he said .
"If patriotism and nationalism a:
to be taught, by uncritical ancesto
worship, how are the future gener
tions to get that solace for the di
appointments in contemporary pol
tics, which comes from the discover
in critical histories that things use
to be much worse than they a
now," he asks. "One of the great r
wards of the study of history is th
preservation of our optimism, so ofte
deadened by the pageant of prese
politics. If we are to have perfect a
cestors, will not all the bombasti
eulogy and maudlin sentimentali
about "our virtues" and "our supe
iority" to other nations cause "ou
next generation to behave likea
insufferable cad toward the rest of ti
world?"
"But we need not fear the mightc
these Philistines, who would reje
the truth and embrace propaganda
he concluded. "The facts of histo
will not bulge. One cannot change th
events of history by resolutionsc
patriotic societies, nor yet by 'ay
passed by sapient Solons-anymo
than one can change the eternal law
of nature. Not Hearst, nor Hylanl
nor Hirshfield, that aspirated trinit
can prevent the truth being taughta
