DR. BELKNAP ' S MESSAGE Beik nap Teaching is not properly a commercial or a political job. It claims to be a science; it is certainly an art. Without the idealism, the enthusiasm, and the devotion of the artist it is a dismal and disheartening failure. If engaged in primarily because of financial profits or social advantage, it becomes at once a futile mechanical process and the most disheartening of menial tasks. The current depression, temporary but just now very real, is taking its toll among teachers as in all the professions. The com- mercially minded, the politically inclined are quickly losing heart, and with the first improvement in business conditions will hasten to seek for other employment. Teaching for a livelihood is no longer attractive. Teaching as an opportunity to make a new generation into a better world will be even more attractive than ever. Fathers and mothers were the first teachers and still their love and devotion make them the most influential instructors. Their ideals are the finest the profession knows. Formal teaching was early and long in the hands of the church and clergy. Religion furnished both the environment and subdivision of contemporary life ; home, church and school, parent, priest, and teacher cooperated together in training the coming generation. The prime motives of education are still the love of the parent, the zeal of the church and the social idealism of organized society. Perhaps the current depression may perform one useful bit of surgery in eliminating ultimately from the teaching profession those whose chief interest is commercial or political. If so, it will materially assist us in strengthening in the teaching profession the spirit and the ideals of the home and the church where education had its birth. 28

DEAN OF WOMEN ' S MESSAGE The Department of Student Welfare is as truly educational as any part of the College. In order to become a useful member of the society, one must learn to be useful where one is at present. To learn the art of living together happily, and to be able to evaluate situations and make wise choices, is the objective of this department. With the dormitory as a laboratory the students develop the technique of cooperation with others and cultivate a spirit of consideration for their neighbors. The Dean of Women is primarily concerned with providing conditions tiiat will widen the horizon of each girl and give her command over her own powers. VICTORIA FREDERICK. DEAN OF MEN ' S MESSAGE To form at once many new associations, and to stir one ' s self to greater achievement, in pursuit of life ' s ambition, is not always easy. It is a privilege for the Dean of Men to help students understand their new social relations, to interpret some of their personal problems, to protect each individual ' s interest in so far as possible according to its desei ' ts, and to instil the principle that man ' s thoughts and actions are products of his past and the yard-stick by which he is measured by his contemporaries. To know the best that has been thought and said is certainly good ; but to be engaged in actions and achievements which prompt those who behold them to profounder and better thinking and a more beautiful utter- ance, is certainly far better.
