SA.TTJEDAY EVENING, MAY 28, 1881.
THE PAGE.
A BRILLIANT ANNIVERSARY,
A Gala Literary Night at Millcrsville.
The Page literary secity, one of the
arms of the Millcrsville Nermal school,
celebrated its twenty-sixth anniversary
last evening with an unusually brilliant
and successful entertainment, musical and
literary, given befere a select audience,
but 0110 of the largest and most fashion
able and appreciative ever gathered in the
spacious and beautiful cbapcL Special
lines of street cars from this city at 4
p. m. and e p. m. conveyed many visitors
te the school, and as usual, many old stu
dents, at distant points, improved tlic oc
casion te renew their literary associations.
The evening was delightful in calmness
and temperature and the chapel was filled
te the utmost seating capacity te accem
medate these present. Mr. Elias Hollin Hellin
gcr, of Harrisburg, ex-district attorney of
Dauphin county, was president of the ec
casien ; Sliss Emma J. Knight, of Hei
land, Pa., secretary ; seen after the be
ginning of the exercises they werb pre
sented by the society with very elegant
ileral designs which graced the executive
desk during the rest of the evening. The
motto of the society, "Rich in Truth,"
was conspicuous en the neat pregrammes,
and members were the " true blue," the
society color.
The Salutatory.
At 8 p. in. President Helliiiger called
the meeting te order ; Rev. J. P. Moere,
juiiiersviiie, pronounced a remit invoca
tion ; the Page glee club sang -Emersen's
" May Seng," Miss Anne L. Stanffer, of
Safe Harber, carrying the sole part and
the skillful leader, Mr. D. R. Barr, con
ducting the chorus ; and then Mr. IIol IIel
linger delivered the formal salutatory.
" We stand," he said, " between twecx-
tremitics" that of the past and the fu
ture. While engaged in our usual avoca
tions we seldom study the eternal world
around us and our relations te it. At such
anniversaries' as this they arc recalled te
us. Back of us are the urns and sepulchres
of mortality. They contain many of these
whom we have loved and associated with,
the dead of all centuries and all the years
that have gene by. Humanity, empires,
cities are the "unrelenting Past's." There
" old empires sit in sullcnncss and gloom."
We stand en the isthmus between the Past
and Future, en the shores of a sea that
has engulfed treasures of art and litera
ture, but which arc washed up te our feet
like the pearls and gems of the mighty
deep. Men may die, but their principles
and work survive and come floating te us,
for us, across this sea of the past. Coke,
Hale and Mansfield, shining lights of the
law, are dead, but their principles survive.
Bacen, " the brightest, wisest and mean
est of mankind" has been dead for centuries
but he has sent across the waters words of
wisdom for us te gather and send en te
coining generations. The charming
" Elegy " was net buried in Gray's grave.
But of the mighty past we have lest con
trol. It is ours te prepare for the future,
te gather these words of wisdom which
come te us, te purify these gems, te
brighten tliese shells which we gather and
transmit them te posterity. Ours this duty
as parents, teachers and students. A few
well chosen words of welcome closed the
address.
There was a well performed piano duet,
'Grande Galep Brilliaute Lcmeinc," by
Misses Pasterlicld and Davis, who were
presented with choice, bouquets.
TI10 rage Orator.
W. M. Hayes esq., of West Chester,
also an ex-district attorney of his county
and a Pagcitc of about 1837, delivered the
Page oration exemplifying his subject
" Short, Sharp and Deeisive " in his open
ing words in which he premised that his
own oration should be short, the readings
te fellow it sharp and the honorary address
decisive. He noted the prevalence of long
winded people and instanced innocent
men convicted because their lawyers talk
ed tee much. He believed in short essays,
short poems and editorials. Leng and
prosy articles had nearly killed
the Press tinder a former editor : it takes
new lease of life under the sprightly
Smith The Times has becnaa marvel of
prosperity and popularity becattse of the
crisp, sharp style of McCIurc. Sharp and
quick methods of travel have supplanted
long and tedious journeys. The Concstega
wagon is only a relic fit for exhibition of
the long age times. The omnibus which
ran te Millcrsville in 1859 is superseded by
the sticvt cars, and steam will take
their place. Steam and lightning
are this day's motive "powers.
The American citizen is racing
against time. He believes in elevated rail
ways and all methods of quick transit.
The race of life is against time. Decide
and act quickly. "When? New. Where?
Here. Yeung woman, if you arc seized
with inspiration te write a peem, de it.
Yeung man, answer your letters before
they get cold. De your duty new. Make
hay while the sun shines. Strike while the
iron is het. De with directness what you
have te de. If you start, go. Mature
your plans well, then execute them.
Ilave a purpose, stick te it.
De quickly. Loek, of course,
but then leap ; don't stand shivering en
the brink. Ferget mistakes, repair the
brcarh. Travel with light baggage. Re
joice net tee long ever success, but be net
dismayed in defeat. Heed advice, if geed
take it, but ten te 0110 you will yourself
knew best when you are thirsty and what
te eat. Say "no" without a blush or
stammer. Yeung woman, don't keep liim
hanging by the eye lids, if you mean te
refuse him. Otherwise say "yes" and
make him happy. It is hard te
say' no" when it is net fashionable
or popular ; thcre is all the mere merit iu
it then. Say it gracefully, however. Thcre
may be harshness in decision, but there
is danger in doubt. Doubting generals
lest battles and retarded -the war. The
volunteer soldiers leaped forward with en
thusiasm, but lest their ardor when the
general hesitated en constitutional points.
Fever wasted the camp and demoralized
the host. It was decision, stubborn de
termination, resolute will, that wrought the
victory and the end. Life is a warfare.
Decision is an inevitable quality for suc
cess. Marry your profession ; stick te it.
" The rolling stene gathers no mess."
Wear out but don't rust out. The time
te retire from work is when we retire into
the grave. The death te die is death in
the harness. Ships arc leaving for every
pert ; get aboard ; wind and wave may
be adverse ; stick te the ship ; brave storms
and icebergs, fogs and billows, you will
reach the destination. Put en the whole
armor and wear it manfully until the war
rior's work is done, his crown wen. Mr.
Havcs's oration wastreuckant,fercible and
eloquently delivered, and in the award of
ileral lioners and popular appiause lie was
net forgotten.
Vecal sole, " La Capriccieai" (MaUei),
by Miss Harriet D. Warner, was raptur
ously encored and in her sweet and highly
artistic manner the lady sang "The Sands
of Dee,'-' ene of the touching ballads which
shc.rcuders with most exquisite expres
sion. The Readings.
Making a slight change in her pro pre
gramme, the elocutionist, Miss Elizabeth
Lyman, of Philadelphia, read first
Rosetti's vivid and intensely dramatic
poem, "A Royal Princess," and then the
comic selection, "Arcthusa's Torment,"
and after a vocal duet by Miss Emma O.
Sigler and Mr. D. R. Bacr, Miss Lyman
read Scene II, Act II, of Macbeth. Jliss
Lyman is a young and handsome lady,
who is a teacher in Shoemaker's academy
of elocution. Her selections were well
calculated te test the versatility of her
abilities, aft well as their extent, and she
seemed te read with equally geed effect
in them all Her, conception of the Shak
spearian characters was notably fine and in
the first excellent selection of her pro pre
gramme she exhibited an intensity and
depth of feeling, conserved by intellectual
grasp, which seldom shines conspicuous
in female clecutienists.
"The Sea Hath Its Pearls" tfas the
title of the vocal quartet, .which was ren
dered te the satisfaction of the audience
by Misses Warner and Sigler and Messrs.
Bacr and Ceatcs.
The Honorary Ailtlrewi.
It was 9:25 when Rev. C'has. T. Stock,
of Hemer, Pa., and well known in this
city, obtained the fleer for the honorary
address, ami though he did net yield it
for ever an hour it was manifest, and net
apparently relished by the speaker, that he
had te turn ever a geed patt of his manu
script without rcadiug it. Some of his
audience sympathized with his regret at
this ; seme did net. Fer while Mr. Steck
is a fervid and picturesque, and sometimes
really eloquent orator, after an hour
of his discourse a suspicion stelo into the
mmds of seme el his hcaicrsthat his il
lustrations were worn threadbare and his
thoughts were being ro-werkctl te the
superficial extension of his oration
rather than its enrichment. Fer all
that, it had many excellent features
which it is impossible te reproduce in the
ncsessarily brief abstract te which this re
port must be limited. The subject of
his address was "Heroism Recognized
and Unrecognized, " and it was a discus
sien of true and false here-worship
" It is " remarked the speaker at the out
set, " a great advantage te a picture te be
well framed. " Human distinction is a
frame, in which men obtain great advan
tage by the popular exaltation which
attaches te fame. Iu the estimate of
achievements tee often is it forgot
ten in what field men operated, with
what metive and by what means. Tiiese
count but little in the public estimate of
success. Rebellion, if successful, isdigui
fied into revolution ; the revolutionist, if
he fails, is a traitor. Success is mistakeu
for righteousness ; thcre is no such virtue
as success and no such sin as failure, in
the measure of popular judgment. The
true test of merit should be the spirit iu
which the deed is wrought and the faith
fulness with which the purpose in view is
adhered te. Who dare deny the praise
of heroism te these who fought
at Fredericksburg, because they wen net
like their no mere heroic comrades, who
bore victory oft" the bloody field of Gettys
burg? That merit is only imaginary and
uureal which fails in its measure te have
taken into account the opportunity as well
as the action. These factors are se blended
iu the final result as te be undistinguished.
Here worship loses reason, scorns critical
judgment as an impertinence. The "here"
often needs an areua, failing teiitid which
he would remain in obscurity.
Circumstances arc said te reveal
great men, but as thcre are
net enough circumstances te go around,
many must remain undiscovered. Seme
people happily step en the scene when the
occasion is ripe for them and this accident
ought te be credited with their success.
The difference between Grant te-day and
Grant of twenty years age is the difference
of opportunity net of merit. The public
are apt te give undue glory te the man who
strikes the last blew, though every preced
ing one may have hecu no less worthy.
Ged often selects the stripling for the
final work, as Gen. Newton, after the
great Hell Gate rock blast had been all
prepared for the final explosion, let his
baby daughter touch off the battery that
communicated te the dynamite the explo
sive power. Se Previdence brings forth
the child-man for the final blew and the
insignificant instrumentality get all the
credit ; intelligence, conscience, labor,
truth, right devotion, count for nothing
against the man' who touches the spark.
The thousands who did the labor a.c for
gotten. The soldiers who fell in the
charge are btnicd in the bloody ditch,
while these who carry the works with a
shout rather than a blew, live in the song
and story. True here-worship takes into
account, likewise, the stimulating inllu
once of conspicuousness. The here of the
highest type is he who battles for the
right's own sake. The military chieftain
displays himself befere the public eye and
has that incentive te endeavor. Blendin
walks the wire and Donaldsen hangs
te the trapcze in mid-air because
they are inspired with the admira
tion of the multitude. The passion
for applause has iu it the intoxication of
stimukttieu and heroes often strike their
noble attitudes and perform their moral ac
robatics te gain the popular favor.
Again, the public are disposed te attach
peculiar and prodigetts merit te common
place qualities, iu men of general dis
tinction, just as the old hunter ex
aggerates the merits of his deg
and gun because they arc his. Sin
cere peeple arc often deceived
in their judgment by the prepossession
of their minds toward a faverite object.
The human idol is set upon a lefty pedes
tal. Mere qualities of our common hit
manity, such as sympathy and honesty;
net at all rare among common men, are
eulogized, when found in the famens,as ex
traordinary. Luther's affection for chil
dren, his delight in music, his love of
flowers and nature, se excellent in them
selves, were no mere admirable in him or
in ether 'great men than iu the lowly.
They extol humanity but net the mere in
the great than in the humble. Their ex
cellence is net enhanced by their great ex
hibitors. Thcre is tee much assumption
that such qualities are supcroxatery te
greatness, that station and power allow
a descent in character corresponding with
the rise in position, and that fame entitles
the famous te threw off humanity. Fer
instance, at the close of the Revolution,
when discontent was rife among the suffer
ing patriots and seme irresponsible person
suggested te Washington te assume the
kingship, he rebuked the proffer. As much
here-worship has been lavished en his re
nunciation of it as though the crown had
been offered by the vote of all the people's
representatives of all the states, and he
had loftily dismissed it. It is assumed
that people of eminence have a right te
play the devil, and if one docs net show
the cloven feet he is exalted "as a demi
god. Anether mistake is that of
measuring the here by the value
of the result. If t man. in the
cxercise of ordinary sense and philanthro
py saves another from death the act is es
teemed of heroism corresponding with its
worth te the beneficiary, while the true
merit of an act is te be measured by the
dcgreejrf self-devoted manhood involved
in it. Tepular here worship sees, its ob
ject greatly magnified ; rational here wer
ship recognizes him as he is, and is net-
forever looking at his eminence, Martial
heroism is the most demonstrative, but
even here its brightest type u ilHfehD com
mon soldier, net the chieftain.? Of the
highest devotion, courage and valers fame's
roll makes no mention. The' common
soldier was highly extolled, and the bright
est name en the arch of America's temple
was declared te be of the "Unknown" who
sleeps en its battlefields. Rational here
worship withholds no "dues from the'
famous, but it demands iustice for the'
nameless. It : remembers Warren ad'
Washington, but it forgets net the host of
unrecorded names of these who died or
fought with them. Even the illustrious'
Signers' were only members of thirteen
communities of unnamed heroes. In every
high enterprise the Unrecognized has,
berne his part bravely. The speaker
sketched at length and in eloquent phrase
the veyage of Magellan around the glebe,
and even in that wonderful achievement.
with all its attendant heroism, the com
mon sailors,, every narae of whom has
been lest te history, bore their share of
yuO'ei-in.r nrilnrinirnml nrnlnnr Wliern
livostheunknewnhero,then? Everywhere,
his presence unsuspected. Occasion calls
him out. Heroism is universal,
the common instinct of humanity.' It is
manhood, rising superior te selfishness
and fears. It displays itself differently in
different spheres of action, but the romance
of valor thrills all humanity. People gen
erally feci and think heroically. The hero
ic scntiment,ef cenrse, falls short of action,
but occasion lends inspiration te it, and,
he who stands shrinking at the chasm,
thus moved, takes the leap and clears it.
The late war was cited as an example of
popular heroism, when occasion made
heroes of a million and a half common
men. The speaker was obliged by the
considerations of time te come te an abrupt
conclusion, but he rounded off his address
with an eloquent and f let id picture 01 the
moral here, struggling with temptation or
evil habit, fighting and conquering and
winning, net earthly laurels, but the un
fading crown.
The GIca Club's chorus, "Hark the
Seng of Jubilee" Darker, brought the
exercises te a conclusion and set the seal
upon a brilliant anniversary added te the
bright record of " the Page."
