My dear No Yong Park:
Please accept my most hearty congratulations for your success in the contest. You are certainly deserving of a lot of credit, since you have been remaining in a land not your own and in a language foreign to you.

No Yong Park was greeted by over 1,100 people last night. In a speech intermingled with pathos, humor and lofty sentiment, he held the audience in rapt attention for an hour and a half.—
South Bend Tribune.
The Korean lecturer stirred a capacity audience last night in one of the most unique addresses ever delivered in the city. The address was replete with amazing sense of humor, but at times his speech reflected the pathos of a people seeking to rise to higher levels. Should he ever visit Kankakee again he will find a warm welcome awaiting him.—
Kankakee Daily Republican, Ill.
The audience was both instructed and entertained. He gave them a perspective of the Eastern problems. His address was replete with pleasant humor which made the evening seem quite short.
