Page F our JOHN J. JACOBSON Dedication To ujakey With meager words that can scarcely sound our feelings' depth, we hereby dedicate this book to our beloved captain, Mr. Jacobson, who helped man the ship since it iirst was launched. To our captain whom Pate never did surprise nor hardship dismay - our captain whose dominant spirit Time's ravage could not stay, we his crew of admiring apprentices bid a solemn farewell. It was he ..... Who threw the life line of solution to the students struggling in the sea of predicament. Who rolled up the pressed sleeve of honor and with brawny arms held the jib boom in place despite the gusts of unruly adversity. Who transmitted his fiery spirit and solid determination to us, the crew, and since his services to us are beyond all expression of gratitude, rather should we dedicate and consecrate our lives to the principles and ideals with which he imbued us, and to the symbolic achievement of honest purpose he embodied ..... By contagion of this we may Catch at a spark from his eternal ire And learn that we are better than our clay And equal to the peaks of our desire.

Page Six To The Faculty We came unshaped, unwrought, Amorphous masses, yielding plastics Into your skillful moulding hands. And you with your dearly acquired, Deep art of life development, Jarred shapelessness into patterned structure, Stirred stagnancy to throbbing creation, Instilled idiosyncrasy with large potency. You distilled, Hltered, purged From all evil element and impurity. , . You prepared the listless lump of life For fertile productivity. You installed width, you impressed it With the coordinate of depth. You designed and made aware. You goaded and impelled Passive inertness To PURPOSED ACTIVITY. You wove the toughened fabric of character Elastically resistant to adversity: You bordered it, embroidered it with A fringe of intuitive taste, You endowed with a selective sixth sense To grasp in their full contour The beauties and truths of life. You drew through it all a brace .... A vibrant strain of moral conviction. You guided the groping roots, You supported the sprouting Stem, Swerved to erectness the errant trunk, And bared its young boughs to the warming sun Yes, you the faculty, our faculty ignited And fanned and fed the flickering flame Of inspiration . . . to constructive, creative Warmth
