would be as suicidal to ignore the operation of the one as that of the
other. Mournful complaint is as impotent as an infant crying against
the fury of the wild wind. History has taught you that the path of
moral progress has never taken a straight line, but has ever been a
zig-zag course amid the conflicting forces of right and wrong, truth
and error, justice and injustice, cruelty and mercy. Do not be
discouraged, then, that all the wrongs of the universe are not righted
at your bidding. The great humanitarian movement which has been
sweeping over the civilized world from the middle of the eighteenth
century to the present time, manifesting itself in political
revolutions, in social and moral reforms, and in works of love and
mercy, affords the amplest assurance that all worthy elements of the
population will ultimately be admitted to share in the privileges and
blessings of civilization according to the measure of their merit. The
man whose education has resulted in practical intelligence, will find
the largest field for the exercise of his powers. I urge you to bring
your education to bear upon your practical tasks. You need not fear
that your knowledge will carry you beyond the needs of the situation.
In dealing with a people who exhaust their strength in working with
blunt iron without sufficient knowledge to wet the edge your wisdom
will ever be profitable to direct.
