l vs ff .Q-qt., V ' - President Henry Gadd Harmon This fiftieth issue of the QUAX is an important milestone in the life of Drake. A half century of continuous publication makes this an old book-almost as old as the University. During these titty years the QUAX has told and preserved the story of Drakes growth from H75 students in 1900 to more than 7695 in 19-l9-SO. It has recorded growth in campus and resources. It has pictured Changing styles of dress. speech and amusements. It has carried the story of wars, depressions, victories, romance and the college pranks of many generations. Through all these chapters runs the strong theme of Drake's emphasis on thorough preparation for complete living and serving in a free society and of the successes of her sons and daughters. Hearty congratulations to the staff of this Golden Anniversary Qusx and for the line tradition which it represents. scfffti
