He not' only was a great figure in the
history ind life of Israel but he is
one of the greatest figures in all
human history. He was not only the
man of the hour at that time, but he
is a man that belongs to all time, all
ages and to all people. Through him
God gave us the Decalogue, said 'to
be "the law of conduct for the childhood of the world." The Commandments are not out of date today. The
laws given then are basal and fundamental to civilization now. Then, and
now, law is essential to civilization
and lawlessness is a menace. The law
was God's instrument in training for
right and righteousness and the purpose of all law was to make it harder
to do wrong. Breaking the law and
lack of enforcement of laws then and
now is unprofitable and is the nation's
undoing.
Moses was a
man to a
task. The task was to
lead a slave people out of Egypt
to the land promised to Abraham, the
father of this chosen people. One of
the lessons of Moses' life was that he
was unprepared for his task even
when he had all the learning that

TxHE STUDENT'S RESPONSIBILITY
In his address at the opening convocation of the university, President
McVey presented several new thoughts to the student body.
All are
cognizant of the fact that the university carries heavy obligations to those
who matriculate as students; that these students have some responsibility
to the university is a thought seldom expressed and which, perhaps, has
never occurred to the average student.
The University of Kentucky is a representative or agent of our
great commonwealth.
The state instructs this agent to prepare a limited
number of young men and women each year to be better citizens and more
To accomplish this end the

state, through its agent, spends great sums of money annually.
Since he is receiving these benefits rrom the state, it is the student's
duty and responsibility to appraise and appreciate them and to reciprocate.
Naturally to do this he must respect the agent and observe its mandates
But especially must he work to accomplish thej primary purpose for which
the university was established to make him a better citizen. This means
chiefly study and honest and zealous effort to improve his physical being,
to discipline his mind, and to strengthen himself in sound moral principles.
