and the DEAN... Dean A. P. Markert, B. S., M. A. It is again my privilege and pleasure to bring to you a message. At this time in the history of the world it is not enough to wish you merely happiness and success in the days to come, sin- cere as my wish may he. It is evident to each of Us that in these trying times we must all have an inner courage, a spirit of fortitude that will enable us to carry on in the face of as yet un- realized dangers and hardships. Xo man can in himself alone, find comfort and support, inner peace and happiness. He must come to know God. find his support and courage in God’s great love. Only by seeking God can we find Him. and it is my sincere de- sire that you may come to know inti- mately Our Heavenly Father, and Christ, his only son, and that through faith in Him you may find that courage and fortitude which will enable you to face the future with hope and confi- dence and good cheer. A. P. Markert, Dean. Dean Markert seems to be enjoying the annual Faculty Banquet. Mr. Henry Read and his sister, Mrs. Emily Walters, are with the Dean. 12fli n bo u) V
