Excerpt from Commencement Exercise: Containing Addresses by the Members of the Faculty, Addresses by the Members of the Board, Normal Days Exercise, Academic Day Exercise

God requires us to search out the laws of nature as is shown by our bodily wants, and in this very search we obtain intellectual growth. Could not the Creator reveal all that would be for our well being and thus save us the effort of find ing out for ourselves? Most undoubtedly, but this would not give us mental development. That man was a philosopher indeed who said Were truth a bird and I held it captive in my hand, I would release it in order that 1 might seek it again, and he was a wise father who called his sons to his death bed and told them that in his field was a hidden treasure which they could find by digging The boys dug the field carefully from end to end, but found nothing. Then they planted it and the crop that year was a hundred fold better than it had ever been before. They had found the treasure. Acareful cultivation of the soil brings forth an abundant harvest. But that was not their only benefit. They had learned how toil strengthens the muscles of the body, and this was the greater treasure.
