FDHEWUHD The pages which follow are the bow . . . the hand- clasp . . . the final nod with which we take our leave of the College of Pharmacy. To all the graduates, this exit from college life is both sad and joyful, best described by Dicken ' s . . . It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, ... for together with the fun and happi- ness which we found here are intermingled the memories of hardships and difficulties which many of us have had to overcome. These darker moments are now cast into the mass of trivialities and at present we bask in the sunshine of pride that results from a significant achievement. We leave behind us an unusual record of service and interest in school affairs, highlighted by the creation of a complete yearly program of social activities. It is through these social functions that we have acquired a deeper un- derstanding of our classmates and have established closer bonds of friendship than ordinarily develop from mere classroom acquaintance. It is impossible for a book to embody all that we have experienced in our college life, but among these pages may be found many sparks to rekindle the lights of college memories . . . dimmed by future years.

D E D I C A T I About to leave an institution devoted to knowledge and the preservation of life, we ironically see the very things we have strived to perpetuate being torn down and humbled. It is truly a lamentable state of affairs but neither self pity nor a spirit of hopelessness will remedy the situation. The turbulent state of the world today presents a challenge to us who are emigrating from the secure portals of school into a dynamic society that demands a prodigious expenditure of courage, foresight and sacrifice if our generation and future generations are to be progressive. Some of us will enter the armed forces, many will serve in civilian capacities, and others will perform voluntary forms of war work. The nature of the work does not matter, for however small and insignificant our individual contri- butions may seem, their combined efforts will produce the force and intensity of a raging river fed by small streams and gentle brooks. We dedicate this book to the war effort . . . secure in the belief that only through the concentration of our forces can we reach that sublime moment which will declare our freedom from madness, and destruction and death. The restoration of a normal America shall be our ultimate goal.
