What Vv e Have Been HE past is the firm ground in which the roots of the future have their holdings. When in the rush of the on-coming years we shall pause in life ' s battle to draw a breath of power from what lies behind us, no period of our past will stand out more vividly, perhaps, than these two years of school. It is here that many of our highest purposes have come into being and our chief plans taken form. It is here that we have changed from the chil- dren of yesterday into the women of today. Even our difficulties, trials, and failures here, surrounded by a splendid halo of old associations, will one day shine out as blessed memories. To live ami learn and he All that nut harms distinctive womanhood — this is fhe ideal that has hovered before us. In older to move toward this end, mentally, we have found our way through innumerable texts on psychology, mathematics, and science. Morally, not trusting in those unconscious forces of which we hear so much, we have attempted the text- book plan in ethics, with what success our neighbors can assure you. Physically, we have spent hours either in the gymnasium, pacing the board-walk, or on the basket-ball and tennis courts. Practically, we have gone into the schoolroom day after day and directed those plastic minds into the right channels though we always lived under the fear that our minds were benefited more than were the children ' s by the experiments. Our aim has not been altogether selfish, for in striving towards it the welfare of our beloved school has ever been the controlling thought. The majority of us came at the beginning; we entered school-life on the same day with our strong young Alma Mater herself; we have seen and had some share in the initiation and growth of many of her largest plans and most progressive movements; hence we have enjoyed a sweet sense of comradeship winch is entirely consistent with the deepest reverence. When we entered, on that beautiful day in September, 1909. out- school was new, our instructors were new, and we were new. After a few days of becoming accustomed to these novelties, and especially of getting used to the strange new thing of not living at home, we went to work setting up a standard for ourselves and for our sisters-to-come. 23
