Beloit has always cultivated a spirit of truth- seeking; yet, in this ad- venture, Beloit has hada great hopefulness, a keen appreciation of spiritual values. ‘Prue knowledge and pure faith are both manifestations of genuine culture. But the Beloit of the future, loyal to this fundamental fact, will be greater in the expansion of its equipment, of resources, of student body, of teaching staff. It will be a college in which student life will have vigorous broadening, intel- lectual contacts. In an enlarged dormitory system, capable of housing the entire freshman class, with a freshman commons, Beloit will invite a body of men and women whose fellowship will center in frank j interpretations of modern ‘life problems. It will be a college of vigorous athletic pursuits, where the deve eneen of the body will be honored not in the person of athletic teams alone but by the entire student body, as a personal achievement. A woman’s gymnasium and a Woman’s Union will be features of this program. It will be a college of enlarged equipment, with a large library, with a new classroom unit, with a new Art Hall, and with a great auditorium. It will be a ‘college where teachers will have opportunity in every way to throw their best powers into classroom work, with enough leisure to do the research work requisite for the better teaching and with every stimulation possible to make teach- ing the finest game in the world. It will be a college where an honest approach to truth by teacher and student will be everywhere respected. And it will be a school in which religion is cherished as the heart of life and devotion to a task will be the outstanding mark of Beloit men. ee est COUTTS COUT OTT 7, O i eUIADUGUOUORRUGUARAREADEDAOLTOAOUUNUOATARYEAUODLOOID ALN

DOULOUUUOUAUCALOLARURNDRLULGUUDUERURRORORNNOD Eee QO i K PU LO Vice-PresipDENT Louis E, Hotpen On Te (Gea, BeAS Dates alee alana A greater Beloit in the truest sense can only mean an increased number of such men on the faculty,—men whose scholarship and personality attract and whose enthusiasm for thorough scholarship is contagious and will arouse in their students the desire to do their best and to emulate their teachers. The world recognizes the fact that such men are invaluable as teachers of youth. If Beloit is going to continue its own splendid record it must have a much larger endowment than it has at present in order to guarantee to the future the Beloit type of teachers that we as boys had. The very times in which we live make us to realize anew the vicarious sacrifice that such men made for us. They gave themselves and all that they possessed that we might see life as they saw it, and be willing to serve our day and generation as they served theirs. A greater Beloit will also mean a building period,—an enlargement of the phy- sical plant. It seems to me that it would be advisable at this time to employ a first class architect to make a study of our present conditions and to harmonize the new building period with the Beloit of today, in color scheme and building material. The second great need of the college is a dormitory for men. If we are to pre- serve the democracy of Beloit college we should have an up-to-date fireproof dormitory for men. We want Beloit to be a place where a poor boy can come and by mere virtue of character and ability be everything that any other can be or do. The third great need of Beloit is that of a recitation hall for the humanities. Nearly all of the work of the academic department of a college, except the sciences, is now carried on in the venerable Middle college, erected in 1847, and in North college, erected in 1854, we realize that the need of a new recitation hall is very urgent.
