If art ttinrft Four years of horror and misery have passed during which the College had to divert much of its attention from its academic duties to givo its energy to the service of humanity. At last the trumpets of War are stilled, and the World, wearied by the gigantic struggle, rests for awhile before it shall rise to rebuild its wasted cities and devastated fields. The Class of 1919. having struggled through College while the Great War sapped at its vitals, emerges at last, triumphant, and at its graduation from this most liberal of institutions, it presents as a token of its love this book. Since 1916 no Microcosm appeared, and it is hoped that this one shall be only the first of a long line ot publications which will leave in word and picture a record of the College's activities. It has fallen to the lot of the Class of 1919 to be a pioneer, and creditably has it blazed the trail. It saw the quiet gravness of the College walls take on a martial brown, and when Peace had settled again on St. Nicholas Heights, it bound together the once dissociated organizations of the College into that now well-established institu- tion. the C. C. N. Y. Union.” It was the Junior Classes which formerly were wont to publish “Microcosms” but the Class of 1919. profiting by the experience of former classes, has brought out this publication in its Senior Year. The Class of 1919. nurtured carefully by Alma Mater, must now leave her encircling arms to take its place in the World. And if it but tries to live up to her ideals, no matter what the consequences arc. it feels that she will always be proud of her sons. Many have died to hold the Torch of Knlightenmcnt high in the air. and the members of the Class just graduated enter Life just in time to grasp the Torch, God's own I-ight. from the “failing hands” of these dead heroes and to “carry on.” 6
