THE OPEN ROAD Out upon the open road, which way, where shall it lead? To some it points to the Westward where the great sun sets with its blaze of color and light. To these it shall bring variety and brilliance of achievement. For others it points North where the great star reminds us that for you there is the steady unvarying pursuit of one fixed goal in life. Some roads lead Southward, calling some of you to lives in the great out of doors. There is, too, a road toward the East and many will follow that trail to the service of the King. The Seniors of '26 have come to a milestoneg they must go on. Across the space they can strain their eyes and catch a glimpse, a dream, a vision of the open road beyond-they cannot see its end. Only this they know that Hforth they must. The choosing time has come and there are 'so many roads that wind and wind. Choose wisely, Seniors, but choose with courage. Others have gone on the unexplored way, the faint-hearted have fallen by the roadside, the courageous have found the beautiful things. Life holds its best for those who dare. The open road goes far and some of you shall travel many miles. Shall you go with lagging steps or, feeling the thrill of the great highway, step blithely out with bouyant tread? Some there are who see the dust and grime-who feel but weariness and heat. May you, Seniors, know that dust may be but the symbol of a task well doneg that to be foot-sore may mean you have gone further on the way. Heat and cold, shadows and sunshine lie beyond the bend, but to the traveler who feels the call of the road they are but incidents. E Sometimes you will make for yourselves a path as yet untroddeng choose it care- fully for those who come after you will follow in your trail. Sometimes you will go the road that man has made-but God is in the skies above you, speaking through the clouds and stars. He is in the trees and flowers as they greet you on the way. He is on the road beside you, guiding when you go astray. Fare forth, O Seniors, upon the Open Road! l15l

BEBA BUTLER The wisest men that e'er you ken Have never deemed it treason, To laugh a bit and jest a bit And balance up their reason. 3. CATHERINE ROSS Sweet promptings unto kindest deeds were in her very look, We read her face as one who reads a true and holy book. 4. R. D.

BERTILLE RISHER She has the gift of finding joy everywhere and of leaving it when she goes. 8. OTIS BEASLEY In English he's a shark, in Math- ematics too, I wonder if we could find a thing that Otis never knew? E181 I ' .X 1 v ' ..
