E,x1:1.HAM CoLLI5GE HICI-IRIOND, INDLANA OFFICE OF THIS PHESIDIENT This is a testing tllllC for our colleges. As a distinguished Earlham alumnus. holding one ot' the most important positions in the educational world has recently pointed out, the colleges are facing reduced income on their endowment funds and from their student fees. This means a survival of the fittcstg but the battle is not necessarily to the strong nor the race to the fleet. The fittest is not the biggest nor the richest college, but the best. Survivorship will be determined in the main by two elements: first, by the service rendered by the college to its students, and second, by the affection borne for the college by her students and alumnieaffection which results not alone from intellectual benefits received, but froln in- tangible though none the less real and none the less worthwhile memories, associations, and ideals. As Daniel Webstcl' said of his alma mater, It is a small college, but there are those who love it, and therefore Dartmouth lives and serves today. Earlham, happy in the affection of her students and alumni, confidently awaits tomorrow. 1 4 I Twenty-thx ee
