Soon another world will unfold before us, a world of new interests and new friends. All of us hear the future calling — calling to adventure, to fellowship with all living things, and to richer more reverent lives. We will develop unsuspected powers—we will learn to swim against the current rather than float with it. In the years at Edison we lived a life which was apart from that ever- moving tide. The Talon has attempted to capture the spirit of that school life, the one possession that will bring back the true picture of those memories of busy activity and reckless informality. And with the years we will return, Dear Alma Mater, a varied group of indomitable men and women, who swam against the current and answered the call to real life.
