Tf.)€ Dtjn of I Iowa Wlli: MF- ' reach the stai c in lilc in which thcv face the re- alization that they will soon join that ■ innumerable caravan, thev think ot theilisposal ot their worklis i oods. It often happens that they bet|ueath all thev have toward rhar thini which was denied them in their lives. Thus men who arc successful in business but have been denied the privilet es of a college education tretiuently leave their fortunes to educational institu- tions. On the other hand the living often erect memorials to their honored and beloved dead. Not infreijuentlv does it happen that these memorials later serve rather to satisfy the pride of the living than the honor of the dead. The Memorial L nion building will be an expression of the love and respect of Oregon State college students for those of their colleagues who made the great sacrifice for their country during theWorld war. It is a memorial of which all may be proud. At the same time it is well to remember that we are honoring vouth. These men, at the time of their death, were in the full bloom of young manhood and filled with all the hopes and desires characteristic of youth. As one of the outstanding hungers of these years is that of social intercourse, it is quite fitting and just that provision should be made in this building for the social life of the students of the college. Surely the young men in whose name the building is erected would rejoice to know that others are enjoving what was dear to them. On the other hand, if we who are in the full power of life and its joys keep before us the purpose of the building, we shall never commit the sacrilege of abusing the privileges thus granted us. It is my hope that the Memorial Union building will be a center for the social life of the college and that such social life will be in accordance with the dignity of the school on whose campus it is standing and in harmony with the purposes for which it was erected.
