FCDREWCRD In this Compass, We are presenting a record of the mind and the life of a student at Kensington. With the aid of modern symbolic design, pictures, and words, our book records thoughts in a bewildering variety, thoughts of Work, of recreation, and of enter- tainment. We show images of our friends, our faculty, and our school. We reveal an ear for music . . . an eye for art . . . a mind and heart open for understanding . . . a consciousness of the passing of time and of our Wide range of choice. We suggest noble qualities . . . honesty, liberty, and restraint, truth, freedom, and perfection, self-reliance and self-respect. We have attempted to give an impression of an abstract idea an idea slightly mystical, like a dream, full ofour ideals, our aspirations, and our plans. i Y. xx
