In a talk to the class of 1924 at the Smith Hall Common Room last night, W. J. Bingham '16, Supervisor of Track Athletics in the University, spoke on the subject, "The Kind of Life We Should Lead as Harvard Men."
In starting his speech Mr. Bingham announced that he had been asked to speak on a religious subject. He then said that due to the unrest of the last few years, the religious bodies had come to realize that the world in general, and especially those men who went through the Great War, demanded a practical religion and one that could be used seven days a week. He said that in his opinion, if a man was loyal, honest, and loves his fellow-men, he was a good Christian.
Then turning to his subject, he told in plain, straightforward language the kind of life a Harvard man should lead. "You get out of Harvard just what you put put into it; never stop playing until the game is over," he continued. He then wound up his address by saying that being a Harvard man was an obligation; that whatever a graduate or undergraduate of the University does, reflects honor or dishonor on Harvard.
