BODY nothing unless we have a vital body, one that is refreshed in exercise and skilled in action Participation in sports develops quick thinking, emotional balance, and poise. A penetrating mind opens up real and practicable alternatives for action, giving man hope that he may make a home for himself in existence. This he may do if he is able to chose the most desirable of the alternatives open to him. His Spirit is a conscious energy of selection which must be quickened to value through the practice of discrimination and judgment. To call these faculties on a high level is the essentia! aim of liberal education. Those who use the gifts which have been given them, channeling thei r creativity along the avenues of development provided in the academic, social, and physically stimulating environment of this college, whose faculty and administration devote themselves to the higher aim, are in a very real sense beneath the street lamp ' s arc. I f it should be objected that most people are too dull to be even potentially the gems of the race, then iet it be remembered that they are the Children of God.
