THE PRESIDENT ' S MESSAGE The Blue and Gold to be issued this year by the Class of 1925 will interest me greatly. Its editors have been charged with a very considerable degree of responsi- bility. May the verdict of the thousands who will sit in judgment on their work be, Well Done Editorial success will depend not so much upon the possession of funds in abundance, as upon the exercise of initiative in ideas, the insistence upon accuracy, the employment of fine discrimination in matters of art, and the use of good judgment. I understand that the chief aim of the editors is to produce a volume possessing those qualities which experienced lovers of fine books would prize in a work of this kind. The last weeks of the Junior year are precisely the time when students should reflect upon their past accomplishments and formulate their plans for the Senior year ahead. Speaking to the individual members of the Class: Are you satisfied with the results of your classroom work and of your outside activities in the years, of your residence in the University? Did you attempt too much in any of the semesters? Were you able to put the finishing touches upon your major pieces of work and play? Did you yourself control, in goodly measure, the expenditure of your time outside of the lecture rooms and laboratories? Have you been floating with the tide, or did you guide your own destinies As to the year ahead : Much will be expected of you in the government of the student body. You shall also save considerable time to reflect upon your various activities. Good scholarship calls for frequent periods of tranquillity and repose. May your Senior year be one of happiness and contentment through accomplishment. a Er nq;
