A great soul will be strong to live, as well as to think. Goodness outshines genius, as the sun makes the electric light cast a shadw." From one virtue to another we might proceed, to only find that the term royalty is not one to be defined by certain groups of words; it is embracive in meaning, encompassing in spirit, and must be thought, not said. We, through a study of Christ's teachings in both the Bible and Book of Mormon, and through coming in contact with men and women of high ideals, have learned something of that royalty of character so bravely signified by Weber's purple. In Weber's white is found purity-purity both mental and physical. Purity in thoughts and in actions is an admirable trait in any man who possesses it, but is not only praiseworthy itself; it is a growth of "selfness" which Christ recognized as the basis and measure of all moral worth. "By so much as a man loves and secures for himself the physical benefits and social incitements of life, by that much he is to love his fellows." Both royalty and purity contribute to the final aim of all life-service. With a knowledge, a foundation in this vital principle, we students, thanking Weber College for all that she has done, graduate with a sincere desire for greater things. |
