HOLLOWED STAIRWAYS HARD sTone sTeos, worn and hollowed by an unnumbered succession oT sTudenTs, have leTT a marlc in our school more meaningTul Than all The giTTs oT picTures, sTaTues, and draperies oT grad- uaTed classes. The slabs oT The sTairways, permanenTly marked by The rasping oT Thousands oT TeeT ascending or descend- ing The sTebs, are a record oT The ac- complishmenT oT sTudenTs. The scienTisT says ThaT each sTudenT buTs TorTh I8,000 TooT pounds oT work climbing The sTairs each day or over 30,000,000 TooT pounds Tor The whole sTudenT body. These are sTaggering Tig- ures when one considers The I80 days in a school year, buT The worn sTeps mean more Than ThaT. They Tell The sTory oT young men and women laying The ToundaTions Tor lives oT service. lXloT everyone is desTined To become greaT or Tamous. There can be buT one presidenT Tor l25,000,000 Americans, buT every one oT These is inTrusTed wiTh liTe ThaT he may beTTer himselT and his Tellovvs. These smooTh depressions in The hard sTone are The symbols oT TuTure ciTizens, greaT and small, malcing deTiniTe sTeps Toward The aTTainmenT oT Their ideals, moving ever Torvvard in search oT beTTer eguipmenT To live up To Their TrusTs. These are noT cold, unyielding sTairways, buT a monumenT To The in- dusTry and ideals oT sTudenTs pasT and presenT.
