The facfory whisfles blow. He punches his fime card. He finishes his labor wifh fhe ringing of bells. The sfudenf sfarfs his day wifh ringing bells and ends fhe school day wifh anofher bell. Games begin wifh a bell, a whisfle, a shof, or some ofher hearfy noise, and end fhe same way. No, fime is nof a silenf fhing. lf breafhes, if has a pulse, if makes crying sounds. We of Belmonf acknowledge fhaf fime is of flesh and blood, and in fhe follow- ing pages we have shown nof fhe finished, specfacular performance, nor fhe finished arficle for display. Rafher we have affempfed fo show fhaf Belmonf has kepf sfep wifh fhe changing fempo and rhyfhm of fime. We are showing how we spend our fime, fhe work we are learning fo do wifh our hands andminds, fhe fime and efforf involved in furning ouf a display arficle, fhe fime and careful fraining necessary for all producfion.

Time, +ha+ quiel' fhief, who wifh malicious forefhoughl' sfeals our precious momenls, has ofren been +he rheme of year books. However, +he associafion of +ime wi+h pasl' publicafions has usually been in a quiel' or noiseless way. The Sands of Time, Time's Sunny Hours, lhe Hourglass of Time ring a cognizanl' bell in our minds. This year +he Campanile Sraff selecled for fheir +'heme Time, bu+ in a diFFeren'r sense. Today more fhan ever, +ime is a greai' mo+iva'I'ing force. Today, 'rime is nor silenf, buf is a greal clashing of cogs . . . whirring wheels . . . humming bel+s . . . screaming drills . . . whislles . . . bells . . . gongs . . . sirens . . . all crealing a +remendous din and dissonance, buf al +he same fime creafing a harmony of chords beyond compare. ln our smug liHle lives we have slipped in'lo an easy way of living. Whal' we cannol do loday will be done 'romorrow-maybe. Bur now all is changed. We musl change our +empo and rhy'rhm 'lo new ways and new ideals. We musl be con- scious of 1'he noise +ha+ lime makes.-The 'rick lock of fhe clock, lhe ringing of fhe hour, is now a signal of 'rime pasl' and we musi' keep rrack of how we have speni' +ha+ fime. As necessily arises, we musl' change our direcfion. Our aims become more viral, more rugged, wi'rh each rick of rhe clock. I 0

The fick of +he clock-'rhe moving hands -'rhe passing hours-all rhese are of ihe na'rure of Time. Sunrise and sunsei'--+he moon and +he +ides-ihese loo mark +he passing of Time. Bul' Time is more +han a measuremenl' of space befween +hen and now. The essence of Time is i+s personalness. The same lapse of 'hours +o one man may mean success, io anoiher failure. To me ihis passage of Time may mean joy and produciiveness, +o an- o'rher if may mean desola+ion and emp'ri- ness. The same hour may bring, glory +o one and shame +o anolher-. Time ihen is a parf of life. Our own life is Time as we inferprei' if, as we mould if -if is fhe days of our years. Our Todays and Yesierdays are +he blocks wiih which we build-Thoughl' quarries fhe mines of Time and builds Life. ' Life, +hen, will be ric'hes'r and mos+ saiis- fying when Time, every passing momen'r of if, is looked upon as marerial our of which +o build-The work of Ari-+he good Life -demand Time for rheir complefion. Who shall separnaie 'rhe Thinker from lhe Thoughl'-+he Builder, from 'I'he Building or Time from 'rhe producrflof Time? Time and Life are one-
