POI'ENNOI'Cl It is a privilege to be permitted to write the Foreword for Denim of 1927. The year book of a college is a powerful factor for cohesion among the various entities of the institution. It brings together in unity of purpose the different classes with all of their ambitions, their peccadillos, and particularly their ever recurrent and forgiveable foibles. No name. even among the older or more dignified members of any class, is ever sacred from the shafts of irony and wit with which the individual is assailed in the classic chronicles of the year book. And it all has a humanizing effect. There is a comaraderie about it which typihes the best traditions in the common brotherhood of man. It is salutary that this is so. Essentially the year book is a student enterprise, and the ability displayed in its production is often a revelation to the faculty. The daily contact with the student body in the routine work of the class room or laboratory does not always reveal the capabilities of the various members of the class in other directions than the one under operation, and thus the teacher is frequently pleasantly surprised when the year book comes out to note so many evidences of unexpected achievement by the boys. And in this connection it may be said in passing that the amount of labor and thought required to get out this book cannot be comprehended by those who have never been called on to do such work, and the thanks of the faculty and the entire student body are due to the editorial staff for their devotion to a task which has for its only reward the consciousness of having performed an unselfish service for the benefit of the institution. Each year the staff selects a member of the faculty and does him the honor to dedi- cate the volume to him, This is a very appropriate and pleasing custom, linking up the teaching staff to the enterprise and developing an erprit de torpr between the teachers and students which is very salutary. It is a real honor to be chosen for this distinction, and I am very sure that it is always highly appreciated by the fortunate faculty member. One of the best services performed by the year book is the fact, as has been intimated that it fosters a community of sentiment between the different classes, and between the student body and the teaching staff. And this is one of the most important things in student life. The greatest asset any institution has is the loyal support of its students and its alumni. Witliout this an institution is handicapped at its very foundation-with it there is no limit to its advancement and its ultimate achievement. It has been the good fortune of the Chicago College of Dental Surgery from its inception to have enjoyed the hearty good will and the cordial allegiance of its alumni, and this has been no mean factor in its continued success. Now, with the support and encouragement of a great university like that of Loyola, there is brighter promise than ever ofa steady development which shall keep it well to the fore among the great dental educational institutions of the world. c.
