Foreword A NOTHER year is drawing rapidly to its close. Another ■ ■student body has come and gone. Some will sever their connection with the College and will take their place in the business and professional life of the city and province. To these the traditions of the College have been passed on and the life of the province has been enriched by this annual contribution of young men and women imbued by the highest ideals of service. This is the twenty-fifth anniversary of the founding of Alberta College. Twenty-five classes representing in all over twenty-five thousand students have registered for some courses at this pioneer educational institution. The College follows with greatest interest the lives and careers of those who have been its students since the first year of its estab¬ lishment in 1903. The aim of the College is not only the acquisition of knowledge, the passing of examinations, but the develop¬ ment of the highest capacities of the students in practical activities. It seeks the harmonious cultivation and system¬ atic development of the normal faculties of intellect, feeling and conduct with the idea of training for some specific thing in life or for life in general. The College stands for Chris¬ tian leadership and emphasizes the fact that the highest life is the one most intimately connected and related to the life of the Master Teacher of Nazareth. Our greetings go to all former students, to those who will leave us at the end of the College term and to all pros¬ pective students as they look forward to making a worth¬ while investment of their lives. In the past twenty-five years there have been great achievements. May we all be worthy of the fine traditions of the College and look forward with the expectant hope that even greater things will be accomplished in the years to come. Mores Sunt Maximi. F. S. McCALL.
