P.v the time this letter apj cars in press, we hoj e to have had the great pleasure of having Mr. and Mrs. Carnegie as our guests in Pittsburgh. Wc offer them a warm welcome, and feel confident that they will enjoy the progress that has been made as the fulfillment of some of their cherished hopes. Just a word concerning the growth of my personal regard for the men associated with me in this movement: They have made me their debtor to such an extent that 1 feel constrained to let the students know, through this publication, how generous, sympathetic and self-sacrificing they have been in furthering the interests of the Carnegie Technical Schools. Let us all join in this expression of gratitude, so that they may feel that their many sacrifices of time and thought arc received with genuine appreciation. Your friend, Arthur A. IIamersculag. 20

From The Director To the Students:— When I wrote you a letter for The Thistle last year I thought it would Ik? the last one of the kind which it would Ik my privilege to write for some years to come. What 1 said then I can only repeat with emphasis. It is. therefore, difficult for me to put into words a new message with new import, which docs not, in some measure, repeat the phrases used in my previous lettei. The second school year has been, if anything, more intense than the fir t: the student enrollment has very nearly doubled: the new buildings are nearing completion; the faculty ha been enlarged: the mutual interest between teachers, students and staff has crystalizcd into an earnest and more potent friendship. The social activities of the students have been welcomed and have become an important factor in the student life, without impairing the democracy of our ideals. The subject of “Athletics has been frequently discussed and its relation to the student life has had an important bearing on the plans which are now being outlined for future development of the building scheme. Student sentiment is in favor of athletics combined with social intercourse and out-door play. This conforms to the ideas of the faculty, and is significant of a determination on the part of these schools to establish them on such a footing as will most easily aid in social activities, rather than make them a part of the curriculum. This appears to Ik a wise determination, and will keep athletics under control, and not allow them to assume undue proportions in the student mind. I.et us pause here a moment to recall to mind the death of a teacher and a student, both of whom leave grief-stricken families and friends at their untimely end. It is sad incidents like these which serve to bring forcibly to our minds the many blessings which have been showered upon us during this year, and to leave us grateful and appreciative for a year whose record has been so filled with achievements and happiness. 9
