was THE ALUMNI ASSOCIATION. The graduates of a college enjoy the privilege of belonging to the Alumni of their Alma Mater. To be a member of the Alumni of Bennett Medical College means that you have labored diligently and through your own efforts and the help of the college and its efficient Faculty you are able to go out into the world and succeed in your chosen profession. It means your reputation is assured, for Bennett is one of the oldest and best known Colleges in the West, and it has a reputation of sending out professional men of ability and worth. The obligations of the members of the Alumni are to boost the College and to support the Association. Each member should advise worthy young men to enter their Alma Mater, telling them what it can do for them. As to the support of the Alumni Association, each member of the grad- uating class ought to pay his dues and attend the meetings, if possible, and by all means to attend the banquet given at commencement time. It is your duty at this time to welccme the new members and renew the old college friendship and see the faces of college chums and their families. There is nothing more inspiring than to see these familiar faces and to hear the in- spiring toasts to the College. Let all members then become active and fulfill their obligations to the Alumni Association of their Alma Mater. 42
