Growing . . . What is more interesting than to watch the steady and continuous growth of a thing you love? Where there is growth and development in the individuals which compose a whole, there must be growth in the whole of which they are a part. The high scholastic standing which Bradley maintains is the result of the high standing set by you as students. No college or university is other than its students desire it to be. Set your ideals high and donlt be afraid to work hard and steady. Eventually, you will reach your goal. Since ou are Bradle , as ou row and develo , so will she. You in- Y Y Y g P crease her numerical size, but more important than this, in the measure that you grow, you help her to reach her goal. May she, through you, grow until her horizon of service be extended nearer and nearer our oal and hers. Y 3 ASA CARTER, ADMINISTRATIO What Bradley Means to Me . . . How can one express, in a few words what an experience of nearly forty years means in connection with Bradley College? First, of course, it means the founder, Mrs. Lydia Bradley. She lived for ten years after the establish- ment of the school, dying at the age of ninety, having had the joy of seeing her dreams realized during her lifetime. Her presence in those years seemed like a benediction. Second, Bradley means an acquaintance more or less intimate, with some 15,000 students who have passed through its halls and gone out into the wicle world of service. To know of their friendly interest and the possible influence on a few lives for good is indeed a rich heritage. Finally, Bradley means a feeling of gratitude for an opportunity to be present at the birth of a worth- while educational institution, to share in its growth, and to contribute a little something to the splendid structure which crowns the west bluff in Peoria, sym- bolizing in stone and brick the intellectual and spirit- ual forces which have gone out from it into the world. CHARLES TRUMAN WYCKCFF, Dean of the College.

Dean of the College of Music Mistakes! Have you made them? I have. One student during the year had made so many they were, in his own words, Habout to get him downf, Another stu- dent said he had made 'gplentyw mistakes but he hoped he was uabout through with themfy When this is read the year's record will have been made. Are the errors which you have made weighing you down, or are you using them as a means to a more adequate and satisfying life? CLARENCE W. SCHROEDER, Dean of Men. WILLIAM E. DQNGVAN PLEASANT R.
