PRESIDENT WRITES FOR MEMORIAL DAY (Continued from col. 1, Page 1) College, paid the supreme sacrifice for no purpose? I am thinking today as I write of what those fond parents of their sol- dier-sons whose memories you are me- morializing, have suffered. I am think- ing of the loss Texas and the Nation has sustained in the untimely passing of these men who gave promise of so much uefulness. What lessons are we to learn from these tragic experienc- es of war? It was Jean Paul Rich- ter who said, “In order to see into life, and still more, into ourselves, suffering is requisite.” We have suffered as a result of the terrible war. If we can see deep enough into life to realize that war is as useless and as unjustifiable as dueling, our heroic sons may not have died in vain. “As you grow better,” says Phil- lips Brooks, “you sweep up out of the grasp of money, praise, ease, distinec- tion; you sweep up into the necessity of truth, courage, virtue and God.” My prayer today is that this memorial may help the countless thousands of Texas youths who come to the A. & M. College in subsequent years to grow better. May this memorial re- mind them of the heroic deeds, devo- iton to duty and fidelity to high pur- pose that was exemplified in the lives of some men who had in earlier years lived the same life and were inspired by the same ambitions as themselves. Memorials such as this help worthy manhood “to sweep up into the neces- sity of truth, courage, virtue and God. “My parting word as I convey it ac- ross the sea, is a prayer that all of us on this historic day in the annual of Texas may use the significance of this occasion to reconsecrate our lives to unselfish service to our state and nation, more loyal allegiance to the Prince of Peace, and more zealous in good deeds to the end that the brother- hood of man and the fatherhood of God may be so universally accepted as to insure eternal peace among the peoples of the earth.” Very sincerely, your friend, W.
