"This is an enlistment for a life ser
vice. It will be a pleasant service.
It will be a pleasant life.
But it must be for life,
and for the love of Botany.
And for that alone.
And not for any of its emoluments."
The hundreds of young men and
women who are at Nebraska prepar
ing for their life work may find in this
bit of Doctor Bessey'fl philosophy the
key to a successful life. In an age
when materialism is at a premium it
is easy for us to become imbued with
the idea that the purpose of our educa
tion is to better fit us to make money.
Doctor Bessey's life is a rebuke to
any man who forgets the real purpose
of his college training fitness to serve
his fellow men.
Forty-six years ago he took his first
degree, but he did not cease his study
he kept growing to the end. He loved
his work at Nebraska and although
he received many offers of better finan
cial positions, he refused, that he might
keep on working here with his "boys
and girls." He saw here an opportuni
ty for greater service and he remained.
The appreciative testimony of hun
dreds of students who have come un
der his personal touch and the friend
ships which he enjoyed to the end are
a fitting memorial to a life of love and
service.
DR. BESSEY'S TRIBUTE
When Chancellor Huntington died,
his friend Dr. Bessey, paid a tribute to
his memory that seems appropriate
to recall at this time:
Chancellor Huntington
At the table of life we sit with our
friends enjoying their presence, their
conversation, their counsel; and it
seems to us that their pleasant com
pany must continue indefinitely. And
then one goes out into another room,
and does not return. His vacant chair
reminds us of his absence, and we
stare in sorrow at the place where so
recently he sat among us.
So has gone from us one long-time
friend, and so we sit in sorrow that
we shall see him here no more among
us. When we gather again in the

place where we were wont to see him
we shall miss his genial countenance
whose very presence was a benedic
tion.
. To that other room to which he has
gone we ourselves shall go, and there
again will be gathered the company
congenial spirits that learned to love
each other here. He has gone before
and left us here for a while, but we
shall follow him very soon, and find
him there awaiting us.

C MINOR SYMPHONY
FOR NEXT PROGRAM
Will Be Played at Convocation Tues
day Second Movement Presents
Sharply Contrasting Moods
The C minor Beethoven Symphony,
which will be given Tuesday, was
composed in 1805-1808. It was started
before Beethoven's engagement to the
Countess Theresa and put aside for
the Fourth Symphony, then completed
during the period when he was in
great distress over the separation
from the countess, which ended in a
termination of the engagement. Its
keynote is not joy, as in the Fourth
Symphony, but agitation of the deep
est kind. It might almost seem to
represent Beethoven's own struggle
against the inexorableness of the
tragedy about to engulf him. The
theme of the first movement is made
up of four notes, the shortest and most
famous theme in the world. "Fate Is
knocking at the door," Beethoven is
said to have remarked. No where in
music has such intensity of emotion,
such gigantic wringing with destiny
been so directly and powerfully pre
sented as in this movement.
The second movement presents a
sharply contrasting mood in its al
most religious tranquility and beauty
of melody. It is very well known.
The last movement surpasses the
first In the intensity of its struggle,
but ends in a triumphant march as the
victory is attained.
