The men who represent your fra­ ternity met in New York last month. Fifty-three out of fifty-five delegates were present. These men, represent HE HAD ALWAYS WANTED ing different fraternities, agreed on the following three important prin ciples of fraternity life: First: Scholarship. Many of you A BUSINESS IS OWN try to pass so that you can be init­ iated. You said that before you came here that you were going to make some fraternity. That is a grave mis­ take. Scholarship is the index of character, the key to success in life. The man who accomplishes his du­ ties, who works to gain a certain end, will succeed. The man who fails has no chance. Men come here to the of­ fice and look at the records with the intention of hiring a man. They give no attention to the man who has de­ ficiencies and failures on his record Second: Religious life. When you come to take the pledge on bended knee and before the Book of God, it will mean as much to you as joining the church/ It will require all your energy; your staunchest character; S7T " What's the future with a your best religious life to live up to HOWARD D.
