and no farther ? Can any one measure the far-reaching significance of the countless influences that shall have emanated from her walls? What of Chris¬ tian idealism, of Christian character, of high resolve and purpose she shall through future years inspire in the hearts and lives of the many young women who shall pass in and out of her doors! It would be a bold prophet indeed who would attempt to measure in words what the Blackstone influence is to be and where that influence is to end. Blackstone’s future lies in the hands of her friends. The Board of Trus¬ tees, the Alumnae, the Faculty, and the student body must each make their contribution. But we believe that the future of our beloved Alma Mater is to be finally determined and measured by us, and by the many other girls who live within her walls, who share her gracious privileges, and who go out as graduates of the Old College. A great responsibility rests upon us who have been to Blackstone. We have been great receivers, we must be large givers. We have been beneficiaries, we must become benefactors. Blackstone is a spirit! A college does not consist of materials alone, of brick and mortar, of porphyry and stone. Curricula and endowments and faculties do not make a college. Blackstone is a spirit. We find here the spirit of good-will, the spirit of service, the spirit of heroism, the spirit of unselfish¬ ness, the spirit of ministry. And we must take this spirit with us into life, and translate it into such terms as a needy world about us can understand and appreciate. Our obligation is to dedicate our lives to this task of disseminating the Blackstone Spirit wherever we may go. To carry it into our homes, into our churches, into our communities. Thus will the Spirit of Blackstone become immortal, eternal! THIS IS THE FUTURE OF BLACKSTONE! 7
