P. K. McCUTCHEON. Non p W. IMeldriin
Addresses the Students in Chapel
Last Saturday Morning.
The tirst of the series of ad
dresses by prominent alumni of
the University was delivered in
Chapel lust Saturday morning
by Hon. I*. W. Meldrim, of Sa-
! vnnnnli.
It istptite a tilting tribute to
Mr. Meldrim that lie should have
been selected its tile first of Uni
versity Alumni to deliver an
address to the student hotly,
lie lias been called “a model*
Alumnus," and the title is a
deserved one. Mr. Meldrim was
a member of the class of 18G8,
and lias attended every com
mencement of the University
since bis graduation, lie is
now President of the University
Alumni Association, and is con
stantly working for the upbuild
ing of bis alma mater.
The close attention or the en
tire audience was held through
the eighty minutes in which Mr.
Meldrim spoke. I le selected the
character of Cicero as a model
to be held up to the college man
of today, and drew many les
sons of great practical value
j from tlie life of the great Unman
lawyer and statesman.
Cicero combined all the at
tainments of a scholar with
those of a successful man of
affairs. He was a good soldier,
a good lawyer, a good statesman
and a good scholar. lie pos
sessed great tact and great cour
age. It was his pleasure to
defend the helpless, and lie did
not fear to pie id the cause of
the innocent, oven iu the face
of the displeasure of those in
high places.
In conclusion, Mr. Meldrim
impressed upon all students the
importance of following tlie
motto that actuated all of Cice
ro’s life; “Do right and work
hard."
The young ladies of Lucy
Cobb attended the address in a
body, and by their presence
added much to the pleasure of
the occasion.
Chancellor Hill merits tlie
thanks of the whole student
body for providing for them
these addresses from University
Alumni; and the visit of Mr.
Meldrin has proved how pleas
ant and profitable these occa
sions can lie made.
