HENRY DRUMMOND TO THE STUDENTS OF THEUNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO, SUNDAY AFTERNOON, OCT, 1ST,I893, IN THE AUDITORIUM OF WALKER MUSEUM,One of the things that I remember best in a visitto the Exposition a few months ago, was the modelof a celebrated gold mine, which some of you may haveseen. The model is in glass, as if a piece of the earthhad been suddenly changed into transparency, andone could see all the workings of this gold mine,the many tunnels and alleys ramifying all throughthe earth. I was told by one of the owners of thismine, as we looked at the model, that when this minewas first opened, the proprietor began by driving along tunnel more than a mile in length through thesolid rock in order to find the gold that he' believedto be there, and month after month these men persevered with that tunnel. They never found anygold, and after they had spent hundreds of thousand'sof dollars and a year and a half of time, they abandoned the search. Shortly afterwards another' cornpapy bought the property and began their search' forthe metal, and they drove their tunnel just one yardfrom the first tunnel, and they struck the ore at once,and they have since made an enormous fortune out ofthat mine.I t seems to me that the treasure, "Life," forwhich we all seek, is after all very near.i=-wi thin ayard of us, close beside our common life from day today, if we could only get on the right track of it Theelements which make up religion and which thereforemake up happiness and usefulness are exceedinglyfew, and exceedingly simple, and I should like, for thefew minutes President Harper has allowed me tospeak to you, to name three elements wh'ich I thinkmake up the complete life, and to help you toremember them, I shall ask you to remember in connection with them a very well-known picture whichall of you have seen. I mean "The Angellus" of theFrench artist Millet. You will remem ber the picture,-nothing very picturesque about it, an expanseof common earth, a young country lad, and a countrygirl, in the distance a country village, and on thehorizon the suggestion of the village church, that isall. And yet that is one of the greatest pictures everpainted, and perhaps the most religious picture paintedthis century, and we admire it and love to look uponit simply because it contains the complete life,-thethree elements which make up the happy and thebeautiful and the natural human life,In the succeeding issue of the WEEKLY, the Chapel and Christian Union addresses of Professor Drummond will be published. The first of these elements is "work." WorkThree-fourths of your lives, my fellow students, andof the lives of most of those who are here, is takenup with nothing romantic, nothing more religious,than commonplace work. How can we becomesaints, noble men and women, if three-fourths of ourtime is given to drudgery? Most of you know theanswel to that- question already. You are aware thatin reality there is nothing more religious in the worldthan the work we have each to do from day to day.And why? Because it is in our work that we canlearn to become what God would have us become.A workshop, is not a place {or making engines ormachinery,-it is a place for making man. A university is not the place, in the last resort, for makingscholars,-it is a place for making characters and itmakes characters simply by practice in' work, 'and indifferent kinds of work which the student undergoes.,How does a man learn to become conscientious andaccurate and patient and honest? Just as he learnsto play base-ball or to play the violin. He learns thevirtues of the perfect character by practice and ourdaily work is our practice in virtue, and without practice none of these things can come to us. The manwho scamps his, work turns out inevitably a scamp.The ma,n who is dishonest, untruthful, unconscientious in doing his class-work, turns out a worm-eatencharacter at the end of the year. He may scrapethrough his examination, but he is a lower man thanhe was when the term began. Audit is the man whomakes a religion of his work from day to day, andwho sees in it not the mere avenue to a career. Amere thing to be got through that some day he maybegin to live, but who sees that that is life and thatthere are few things greater or higher or nobler in lifethan work. It is he who becomes a religious man,, because three-fourths of his time is thus directly givento religious work. Of course obviously the trueanswer to the question as to whether our daily work, is religious or not is the life of Christ. For thirtyyears of His life it was not the Bible or good booksthat He held in His hand or that occupied His thought.It was the hammer and the plane. What was Hedoing? Dreaming about things? Making things,making tables, plows, yoke for the oxen, and woodenharrows and the hundred and one things that aremade in the carpenter's shop. That meant that the ideallife,-:-the perfect life is consistent with the life of common men. Some of you are perhaps immersed elevenmonths out of the year, and eleven hours of the twelvein fairly monotonous, tedious work. Be thankful.2 UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO WEEKLY.That means splendid practice,-practice in acquiringthe perfect character.The second thing that makes up life, suggested inthe Angellus by the village spire and the attitude' ofthe young man and the young woman bowed in prayer.The second thing that makes up life is "God." Myfellow-students, we must try to cultivate what ourforefathers used to call "the presence of God," tofeel and live in the presence of God. When I was alittle boy, there was put into my hands a hymn book,which had pictures mit, and amongst them a pictureof God. It represented, great, black, threateningthunderclouds, and in the center of that cloud therewas an opening, and in that' opening there was a darkand piercing eye. The impression of God reachedme from that picture was that God was the greatdetective, that He was looking down upon the worldto find out things when they were done wrong andthat as the hymn says, He was writing the story "ofwhat little children do." One of the most difficultthings in the world is to get a true conception ofGod, a conception such as the Old Testament writershad of the everywhere brooding spirit, a God in whomwe live and move and have our being,-what scienceis now discovering and learning to know as theImmanent God, immanent in nature and immanentin men. God's voice is continually speaking to all ofus, but we do not know it. We think something elseis God. We look up there for God as if there wereany" up there." The wise man knows that there is nosuch place as "up there," because what is "up there"to-day will be down there to-night. God is a spirit.The word is nigh thee, even in thy mouth. You haveheard of Helen Kellar, the deaf and dumb child.Until she was seven years of age, her mind was anabsolute blank, but strange avenues by the skill ofthose celebrate a Boston teachers of the deaf anddumb were opened into this dark soul and throughthose avenues a great deal of knowledge of life and ofthe world were poured into this girl's mind, butnobody said anything to her about religion, and aftera year or two, they thought it was time she was toldsomething about God, and they took her to PhillipsBrooks and they told him to put into her some elementary lessons about God, and he sat down besidethe child and talked to her for a long time, and thechild listened, and as he told her about who God wasand how He made the world and made her, and howHis name was love, and how He lived in people andspoke to them and urged them to do good,-thatwas God. The child looked up and said, "Mr.Brooks, I knew all that before, but I did not knowHis name." We have all felt these pressures, thesemotions, these voices. of the soul. Perhaps we didnot know that that was God. Recognize in theseimpulses and pressures the actual activities of God,for they are the direct influencing of our spirit by Hisspirit, and all ,that is necessary for growth is to yield ourselves to these impulses. Think of it. God mustbe doing something. For millions of years He. wasmaking the stars and the earth, and then He changedand began to make flowers and animals, and thenhaving made flowers and animals, He started to makemen. He made their bodies and He made their minds.Did He then stop? Is the creator fin shed His work ofcreation? If not, where shall we find Him workingto-day? Surely at the top of the building where wethink He left off. God is not dead. He lives. Godlives and works and in everyone of us His work isgoing on, provided We do not thwart him. Hence thevalue of living in the presence of God, and carryin gthat about with us to make us sacred, to make ourlife a consecrated life, a temple of the Holy Ghost, totake us out of ourselves and give us some one who shallbe our refuge and our strength, some one who shallbe a very present help in all our temptation andtroubles. It is an old-fashioned lesson to believe inGod, to have a God, to worship God and to pray toGod, but amongst all the new ideas given to us fromthe new light that is shed upon Christianity and uponthe Book of God, we cannot be right unless we cherrish the fundamental truths of the being and theindwelling of God, the father in our souls,'1 he third element of life, just for a moment ortwo, is what? What would be the greatest blank inyour life and mine if it were taken away? The thirdelement in human life is love. Notice the delicatetouch of the artist in that picture, making two figuresinstead of one, and the one a man and the other awoman. It matters not whether they are brother andsister or husband and 'wife, or lover and lover. Thesuggestion is that the two are one. Life is partlymade up. of human friendship. If the man had beenthere alone, it would have been wierd. Think of thatgreat strong figure standing alone in the field with hishat off, thinking about God. If the woman had beenalone, it would have been sentimental, the two complete it. It always takes two to complete the life.They may be college friends, two college mates,they may be brother and sister, any relation, but noman and woman can live alone the life, the completelife. Therefore, let me say to those who are studying here to utilize their college course in finding outthe friendship which are to play such a part in theirfuture life. Let me say to those who have made theirfinding what Johnson used to tell his friends: " Wemust keep our friendship in repair. Keep them inrepair, work at them." It is not a small matter thatwe should have friends. It it not a small matter thatwe should keep up our friends, but our friendshipshould ripen and deepen. It is the most difficultmatter in the world to retain lasting friendship, andespecially to li-ve in lasting relations with those whoare nearest to us. I suppose I am speaking in private.I will give you before I stop a moment of experience.I was once wandering about among the cannibals of3UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO WEEKLY.money outly required at the University for .pre paration, the Academy was unavoidably neglected, andonly those preparations absolutely necessary weremade. Such complete change, however, has latelytaken place that the most exacting will surely be satisfied,The Academy opened for business Monday lastwith a most promising outlook. . The business strainappears not to have seriously affected the attendance,and rather than a "thinned out" roll almost all theold students have returned and fully as many morenew.A test examination on the fundamentals is the keyfor entrance to the Academy,-recommendations anddiplomas being in no case accepted; and judging fromthe large number who were successful, the opinionprevails that the students are a well grounded body.The superior discipline has kept matters runningsmoothly, and under the excellent instruction, thegreat pride of the Academy, the full measure ofadvance has been made even in-the beginning week.By far the most significant event in the history ofthe Academy occured last Friday evening. It was theusual Quarterly Convocation to formally begin theschool year, having as an important feature the installation of the Dean. The program was attractive,high class, and well received with the exception ofthe convocation address. Professor Grant spoke on"The Regrets of Children." The most delightfulitem of the evening was the playing of the famedpianist, W. H. Sherwood. In an emergency lastyear Prof. 1. B. Burgess consented, although withsome hesitation, to take the position of Acting Dean,and to indicate the success and general satisfactionthat attended his efforts, the President's judgmentwill suffice. "Everything was eminently satisfactory." Prof. Burgess withdrew at the close of lastyear and George Noble Carman, of St. Paul, wasselected to fill the vacancy. Though he has been incontrol but a short time all who know him feel thatthe Academy was particularly favored. The ceremony of installation was very imposmg, and theresponse of the Dean to the installation address ofPresident Harper, was vigorously applauded by thestudents.After the recognition of the new students a mostenjoyable reception was held, when all were given anopportunity to meet the guest of the evening.Many of the departmental libraries have foundnew homes during the vacation. The English hasbeen removed to Kent Hall, while the French hastaken its place on the second floor of Cobb Hall,having been removed from its crowded place in theGerman library. The political economy library isnow devoted exclusively to poli-con, its old associate, social science, shares apartments with philosophy. Forty-two fellows now have charge of thedepartmental libraries ..the Pacific Ocean and I came to an Island, tenanted by one of the worst tribes in the world. At oneend of the Island a missionary had started to evangelize the cannibals. A few miles off at another point ofthe Island, another missionary belonging to the samesociety, belonging to the same nationality, had begunto evangelize his end of the Island. For years thesetwo worked together in harmony. Their wives metand the four lived like brothers and SIsters. One day,the men were translating the Bible into the nativetongue and they fell to quarrelling over the word thatshould be used for" God." The quarrel was kept upfor days and' one day it broke out from words intoblows, these two representatives of the most high Godwho had gone to that Island to represent Jesus Christfought together in the presence of the heathen. Noman who has visited the missionary stations of theworld has come away sudden by the want of friendship, of common friendship between man and manwoman and woman, and if it is that in those remoteregions, what is it here? You say that is comparatively small matter-the evangelization of incompatibility. . My friends, that is not a small matter. Godis love. Where love is, God is, and where love is inour hearts to our friends, there God is. Thereforethis is part of the divine life, one of the divinest partsof the human life. VVe should simply cultivate comradship, brotherliness, and esprit de corps in the.friendship which college life makes and coments.These are three things then which make up life,"work, and God, and love," and if there is anythingwrong with any of our Iives, allY unrest, it is becauseone of these three is wanting. The mathematicianwill tell you it takes three points to give rest, to giveequilibrium, three, and not more than three,-a fourthis a superfluity-and to rest a man's soul in life, toestablish him so that he cannot be moved, he musthave work, and God, and love.MAIlTIN A. llYEIlSON.By far the most attractive of the twelve buildingson the campus so far, is the Physical Laboratoryerected by the munificence of Martin A.

THE BOARD of editors of the WEE�LY will meetat 'least once each week during the presentquarter to confer on points relative to the interests ofthe paper.** *WE DEEM ourselves most fortunate III beingable to present to. our readers the lecturesand addresses which have been delivered by Prof.Henry Drummond during the past two weeks. Prof.Drummond has earned his way into the hearts of allthe students. His lofty and masterful knowledgehas inspired one and all to higher motives, noblerdeeds. He does not preach religion alone, but whatis greater far, truth, sincerity, nobility;' in shortChristianity. Prof. Drummond's chapel addresseshave excited so much admiration and enthusiasmfrom those who attended them that we are confidentthey will be gladly welcomed by many who were notable to be present.** *IN ONE of his co�vocation addresses, PresidentHarper spoke of the aims of the University towardsintellectual, moral and social development. In thetwo former requisites we have advanced much, butthe latter has been. somewhat neglected. Many of you do arrive, break through the crust of formality,'shake off the shackles of conventionality, introducecollege spirit into our somewhat austere studentbody and endeavor to have a genuine good time.Let us have more literary entertainments, more receptions, more promenades, and above all, more rompsand merry-makings, on which we can look back withpleasure when college life is a thing of the past.** *2.00THERE is a fallacy which is particularly prevalent among many modern collegians that saysthat a student should work steadily at his text-booksto the exclusion of every form of pleasure. I t IS unnecessary to refute this heretical and foolish teaching against indulgence in athletics, for the modernscholar is fast becoming convinced of the absolutenecessity of discreet exercise. What is more important and more often neglected, is the mental literary training derived outside the class and in theatmosphere of literary societies. In many institutions the students and faculty have settled the vexedquestion, and literary societies form an importantfactor in college affairs. In our own University in thefirst year of its existence the formation of a literarysociety was particularly difficul t. A number of undergraduates, feeling the need of public training in writing and speaking, took up the task of founding asociety, and it was only after most arduous work thatthey arrived at any satisfactory results. Objections ofoverworked students having at last been met, theAthenaeum Literary Society was inaugurated and the'results were most satisfactory. At every meetinglarge numbers of students attended, and the productions, both literary and musical, were of a high order.The At henseum should be revived. We predict forit a larger membership, increased interest, and greatersuccess than it had even last year.* **HOW are we to stimulate the students to take amore lively interest in athletics? Surely thisis an all-absorbing question, and one that deservesspecial inquiry. The lack of interest was so manifest last year at all the games, that we feel loath toUNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO WEEkLY.even refer to it. It was deplorable. The management of the athletic department at, great expense tothemselves and to their few followers, arranged andcarried out a schedule in which the best foot- ball andbase-ball teams figured. And with what result? Ateach game the grand stand of the City League S. S.grounds was almost empty. It was absolutely heartrending to look upon it in its loneliness. Here andthere stood a student or professor, imbued with theidea that college spirit should be fostered, vainly endeavoring to produce a lusty yell from the recessesof his already over fatigued lungs. Around him formany yards was desolation and inanity. Before thismagnificent throng on the grassy diamond or football field were Stagg's athletes. Men of brawn andmuscle, whom every college athletic associationwould be proud to have upon its team. In the faceof many, disappointments they set resolute_ly to workto win a reputation in athletics for the great institution they were proud to call their own. And theysucceeded. Never in the history of college athleticshas so great a success been achieved by any athleticorganization in its first year. And yet little or noattention was paid to all this. We must have moreinterest. Without it athletics must of necessity dieout at our D niversity. The WEEKLY would suggestthat as a means to stimulate the students to morelively and sympathetic interest, an athletic organization be formed in which all the students, both men andwomen, are to be members. If such an associationwere formed, we prophesy that in a very short timeevery student will be proud of its athletic teams andprouder than' ever of their popular athletic director, Mr. Stagg.List of New Students.The appended list of new students III the col"leges and unclassified departments of the D niversitywill serve as a directory until the regular official directory is published.

Reception.On Saturday evening last there assembled IIIthe chapel, which had been temporarily transformed into a beautiful reception room, a brightand happy crowd of students and professors. Brightcostumes and gay, loyal decorations set off to greatadvantage the sombre caps and gowns worn by manypresent. The decorations were of course mainly oforange, but the great silk flag of the republic hunggracefully over the platform upon which so manygreat and good men have stood, and seemed to throwits proud protection over the happy throng below.The young men's and the young women's ChristianAssociations were holding their quarterly reception.They were performing the duty of making the oldstudents acquainted with the new. They were stretching out the hand of good fellowship towards one andall, and were making college life pleasan ter and better. Mrs. Zella Allen Dixon and Mr. Alonzo Stagg,presiderits of the Y. W. C. A. and Y. M. C. A.respectively, received the guests as they a;rived ands poke words of greeting; the mem bers of the reception committee th'en took them and introduced eachand all. Frappe was served. During the latter partof the evening President Harper, Prof. Butler, Mr.Henderson and Mr. Triggs arrived, and made the occasion still more 'enjoyable. The Christian Associationand the committee who had the work in hand may wellfeel proud of this, their first social meeting for 1893-94'It was in every way a most enjoyable affair.Athletics.A question which is being discussed at the presenttime by western college men, interested in athletics,is the position the foot-ball eleven of the Universityof Chicago is going to occupy. Is the foot-ball elevengoing to be in keeping with the standard of theUniversity? This question which interests othercollege men should especially interest the students ofthe University of Chicago. The position taken by theeleven is to be determined by them and by them alone.The eleven is made up from the student body of theUniversity. As representative of the student body,it should have the co-operation and help of all students. First. This help we can give in three ways.by being filled with such college spirit as will inspirelike zeal in those around us. Second, by turningout and showing the men trying for the team thattheir work is appreciated. Third, by donningsuits ourselves and giving the team practice. This 7last is most essential. A team cannot perfect its signals and line play until it has put them in activeoperation. Thus only can the weak places be determined and means applied for their remedy. A teammust be strong in defensive work as well as offensiveplay. Let us turn out then one and all. What welack in quality we can make up in numbers. A goodteam cannot be chosen from twelve men. Theywould lack the energy and life which are onlyobtained where competition is rife. There should beat least three men trying for every position. GiveMr. Stagg a chance to show his skill as a coach.Permit him to make a choice and not be compelledto take men because they are the only ones available.Interest in athletics need not detract from interest instudy. An hour on the foot-ball field, if only used invocal exercise encouraging the team, will fill you withnew spirit and make you appreciate college life. Ifyou come out once you will surely come out again.Arrangements have already been made for the following games:Oct. 14, Lake Forest at Chicago." 21, University of Michigan at Chicago." 25, Purdue at Lafayette." 28, U. of Cincinnati at Chicago.Nov. 4, Oberlin at Chicago." 18, U. of Wisconsin at Madison.This rare schedule of games will show the need ofhard practice during the next few days. It will alsoshow the need of encouragement in order to fill theteam with confidence. Let us all show our interestand be present at the practice games every afternoonfrom 3:30 to 5:30, University vs. "Scrubs."Men of Muscle.The foot-ball men are now in full cry and are going it strongly. Every afternoon sees a great improvement in the team's game, both in individual and general p lay ;: before the end of another week there is nodoubt that the men will ·have struck their regularpace, and the game will go along fast and furious.Among some of the most promising players who havebeen doing great work this last week, N eel, thecrack tennis player of the University, has shownhimself to be a phenomenal punter and hardy player;if he keeps up the pace he is going now, we donot hesitate to predict that he will play full-back thisyear. Built something on the plan of Butterworthof Yale, tall and slender, his kicking is very similarto Butterworth's, and nothing like it has been seenhere so far this season. N eel at one time played halfback on the Oakland (California) High School team.. Gale, who has been playing right end in the dailypractice games, is doing good work, and plays withmore dash and confidence than he did last year. Histackling and blocking are strong, and he gets downthe field and in the ball well.8 UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO WEEKLY.Logiere, of Minnesota.. is a new man and understands the game, as is Sikes who plays in the line.Allen at half-back has been doing good work,while Nichols as the other half seems to be rightat home inthe game.Hanson, who played a little in the early part ofthe season last fall, has been out once or twice on thefield, but it is not likely he will play, as he has outsidework to· keep him busy.Tooker, who played left guard on the UniversitySchool. before he came here, is out with team daily,but it is improbable that he will stand any show whenthe games begin, as he lacks both the experience andthe muscle.Chace and Behan are the present candidates forquarter-back, and as both are good men for the place,Chace having the hardiness and experience, andBehan possessing the advantage of quickness andmuscle.The first schedule game up to the present writingis the game with the University of Michigan on thez r st of October in this city, when the following menwill probably be chosen to play:Left end-Gale, LaMay, Sikes, or Hewitt.Left tackle--Allen, Atwood, or Logiere.Left guard--Smith, Wyant, or Allen.Center--Wyant, Rulkoetter or Flint.Right guard--Knapp.Right tackle--Wyant, Flint.Right end-Chace, or Hewitt.Quarter--Behan, Chace, or Raycroft.Righ half--Nichols.Left half---Allen or Atwood.Full back--N eel.Majors and Minors.Foot-Ball .I Lake Forest 'lIS.

The finest view of the U niversity to be obtained anywhere is from the big wheel,and thousands of people have gotten their mostimpressive view of the great institution of learning inthat way. Nearly all the students will visit the Fairseveral times this month. A ride on the wheel willremain one of their pleasantest recollections of the. fair.Nowhere can there be found a more enterprisingor energetic set of business men than the merchantsof Hyde Park.
