l grg THE CODEX 1555631 Cfrvnting W' O years ago the ninth of November, the faculty and students of the college tendered Dr. and Mrs. Eaton a farewell reception. Ill QQQ- health, which for several months past had sapped his vitality, at last forced him to resign his office as President and seek prolonged rest in a complete change of occupation. In the twenty years of President Eaton's efficient administration the student body had increased from a handful to almost three hundred 5 the faculty had more than doubled in numbers and in strength, new departments had been opened, new ediiices had been erected- and the endowment had been greatly enlarged. li I, .'. ' P r- 7-., -...xv W I 5 f v f ', ,J v Q 1 - .J 5: . - ' If el I I ' -' , ' 1 , Q ff ,- , After almost two years of active service in an eastern pastorate, Dr. Eaton re- turned to his family, reinvigorated for the arduous tasks encumbent upon a Presi- dent. When Dr. Eaton left Beloit, the class of '09, the largest class in the history of the institution, having just registered as Freshmen, scarcely knew the President. lfVe had never met him in the classroom nor made his acquaintance in the house. We had heard of him however, long before we entered college and in the few Sunday afternoons preceding his departure we had felt the inspiration and uplift of his Vesper messages. In the quiet of those autumn afternoons we learned to discern and love the spirit of him who guided the college. Upon the day'of his departure we all felt the personal loss of a true friend. But Dr. Eaton has returned! With the lamp of the past let us look forward with hope to the future. If the past has brought us pleasure the future, surely, will bring us unmeasured joys. The college has not as yet fulfilled its mission and Dr. Eaton is a part of the collegeg we also are a part of that same institution. Together we can make the glorious past fade into insignificance in the brighter glow of the future. Let us work to maintain the same ideal which actuated the founders of the college, which has manifested itself in every class, in every athletic victory or defeat, around every bon-fire and in every Chapel service. Under the leadership of a wise President, a keen teacher and a firm friend we can win still Greater victories for Old Beloit. 2 e- VVe Will! All hail! O, M, JONES, '09, I Url
