THE MESSAGE OF Tl-IE MANSION KNOCKER ln this anniversary year, we recall lines printed in the Nautilus of 1994. OUR PORTICO Our portico, rich in the lore of years, ln human destinies, in hopes and tears. Beneath its ample arch what dreams have passed, What memories, what loves, what purpose vastl Upon the staunch gray portal stands to view An ancient legend-old, yet strangely new: 4 i Salve, Well come, thou guest, within these walls, Vale, Fare well, where'er thy pathway calls. Cherishing Mother! thou teachest us to live: Thou givest us all, thou send'st us forth to give. Solve -the open door that none can close, Vale -the mission that the Master chose. For twenty years E. N. C. has been helping young people to realize their God-given visions. For twenty years students have been coming in for training and going out for service. And the ancient lcnoclcers still have a message for us. Solve, VVelcome -the open door that none can close, Vale, Farewell -the mission that the Master chose. ln the full life of Today let us not lose the vision of Yesterday nor the call of Tomorrow. Not dead to the spirit of our age, nor yet intoxicated by it, not indifferent to its confusing problems, nor yet perturbed by its hubbub, nor unappreciative of its achievements, nor yet overawed by its claims, our goal not adaptation to its stancl- ards, but service to its needs, confident that the Christ who has called us has also foreseen our age and reclconed with it,-let us plough our furrow straight. -B. M. 96
