And mama. Marie de Medici. after having spent the careful treasury of Henry IV, was intrigu- ing to rule the country. ln the beginning. Cardinal Richelieu was her friend and protege. but with the growth of his pow- er. she became jealous. and the king sent her into exile. Was Richelieu an example of ON POUR TOUS, a patriotic French- man? Maybe. lf we can't be sure about Richlieu and France. we can be certain about Stone Chapel. It was erected in I88l and is the oldest building on campus. fPresident's House dates from I895, Pearsons Hall from l9Ol, and Burnham Hall from I909, the date of South Gym.J Stone Chapel was mainly the gift of Mrs. Valeria G. Stone of Malden Massa- chusetts. eight years after the establish- ment of the college. She had been im- pressed by the efforts of the Yale faculty to found a liberal arts college in Missouri. and made a large gift. The building is native limestone, it has a seating capacity of SCD. and the most famous organ in Springfield. It's truly ON POUR TOLIS. for college and community.

We should, of course. continue to take ourselves seriously - philosophically. we are the philosophers, the monads with self-perception lto twist Descartes somewham Let's look: we build a Lay Science center. we iliimberley lnmang herei evaluate Dr. Mear's British Writers classl, we loll in the sun on a campus bench in early May.
