Fl Gribute to the jfaculty G. VV. H. T IS a pleasant task, the writing of a few words in the way of 1' tribute and praise to the teachers whose noble, willing effort has T been for the past years given in our behalf. Our class annual would, indeed, be incomplete without an attempt at least along this line. How- ever weak these words may be, yet they have a purpose and may serve in a measure to express a deep, earnest regard for the truly noble teachers with whom our lot has been so fortunately cast during our few short years of college life. We owe a debt of gratitude that will never be repaid. A simple word of gratitude is all that we return. V Although Michael Angelo found necessary the inest tints and most costly brushes in the execution of his designs, yet the result .was far from being deter- mined by these alone. 'The story of Acadia, abundant in material in itself, awaited for a century the power of a Longfellow to unlock its hidden charm, to make it real-enduring and eternal. The Sistine Chapel ,at St. Peteris, world- wide in its reputation, marks the greatness in ideal and character of a painter. Evangeline stands as a type of purity and simplicity symbolizing the life of a poet. In like way the school reaches out and infiuences for right to the degree that its teachers are endowed with the higher principles of life that we have named character. Our Alma Maier stands high. Michigan has been generous to us. With excellent buildings and full equipment she extends the privileges which these can offer. But more-the influence of a noble faculty, the greatest privilege in stu- dent life, has been ours to enjoy. To us who are now to leave the institution these thoughts mean much. We have felt the influence of these inspiring men and women. The highest honors to them! But the silent thought of a thousand students is greater praise than it is within the power of words to bestow.
