i. l .. To All Students, Alumni and Friends of Battle Creek College: All things change. The hands of the clock of time move relentlessly on. You have added almost a year to your chronological age since school began. Perhaps it would not be out of place to ask, Have you enjoyed a comparable growth intellectually? Have you responded to the oppor- tunities that have been yours? Have you seen widening horizons spread before you because you have climbed? For your successes the college offers its congratulat.ions. Unnn- ished work remains a challenge for the future. All things change. Education has been assumed to be a preparation for life. Before you came to college you took preparatory work. Now you are preparing for some partic- ular activity to which you wish to devote your life. Some- times we spend so much time in preparing to live that we neglect the opportunity of actually living. Life can not always be a preparation, it must sometime be lived. In times like these, with the increased responsibility that each student of college age is compelled to face, life must be lived earlier than has perhaps been the rule heretofore. Live wisely. All things change. Are you keeping pace with this rapidly changing age? This does not mean that you are to accept each new idea advanced as a panacea for the betterment of society. But it does mean that you are asked to think for yourself and to take an honest and honorable part in the struggle for recovery. The leaders of today will presently take leave of their positions of responsibility and you, of the younger generation, will be called upon to supply these va- cancies. Are you measuring up to the challenge this implies for you? All things change. Vacation time brings a change in rou- tine. To some it brings the temptation to completely let down all pretense of intellectual stimulation. I hope that you will not allow this to happen to you. I do not mean that you must continue to burrow your way into books, but I would suggest that you can with profit spend a few moments each day keeping pace with the world in which you live. Frankly, you owe it to yourself as a college person to do just that. All things change. Widening horizons were suggested to you a moment ago. The most significant fact about them is that they bring with them a proportional increase of respon- sibility. As a student in Battle Creek College you have had presented to you a wealth of ideals. This college has been established to make you a custodian of these ideals. Will you accept this responsibility and will you this summer hold high the motto of your college, A Sound Mind in a Sound Body ? It will pay rich dividends in the years to come if you accept it. All things change. The college pauses to greet the pass- ing student body, to welcome a new group of alumni, to look forward to a new year of growth, and to send to all its alumni and former students its sincerest greetings and well wishes. Cordially,
