eeisse rf o? A MESSAGE FROM THE PRESIDENT There are always many pictures in the ACORN. Together they constitute a picture of the college. If that picture is well composed it is informing. Eye-Gate admits much knowledge. In this case the knowledge is especially helpful because it is self- knowledge. It is to be hoped, therefore, that we have not posed too much in pre- paring to present ourselves to the public and that this book is a fair representation of Coe. A straight and steady look at ourselves helps us to become what we want to be. So I propose certain questions for us to ask ourselves as we look at our picture. Is there a proper margin? Is college life crowded? Is it over-organized? ls it a jam? Do you have plenty of room? Has a pressure of events robbed you of a sense of freedom? Do you have any leisure? If so, what do you do with it? Every good picture has some unoccupied room-a margin. Does the picture have balance? Do you? Who is most fortunate? The one who is everywhere in the picture? The one who is nowhere? Or the one who appears here and there at well selected places? In looking at the college as a whole do you find that the weight of your interest is all on one side? If so, life is out of balance. It lacks poise. Does the picture have perspective? To what point do all of the elements of the picture lead? Do all of the activities of the college run out in lines of influence to meet at some one point? Do you have any interests which are beside the point? Any distractions? Are all of the minor interests so subordinated and all of the major interests so co-ordinated that they truly lead to the one big end of college life? That end is yourself. Can you see in the book your dream of yourself? And do all the interests of your life help you to become your own true self, that not-yet self of which you dream? Should any details be eliminated from this picture? Should any be added? And what about a name for this picture of life in Coe? flmericfm Youth. Does that name fit the picture? What is the meaning of all this business of the campus? Surely its only valid meaning is American Youth in top form and in line spirit in every sort of wholesome expression of life. To all present and prospective students in Coe, I send greetings and the wish that you may understand and properly answer the questions I have asked. Very sincerely yours, H. M. Gaoiz. i .
