Twelve In complying with the request for dedicatory words for the 1926 Elderado. it seems proper to interpret again the meaning of Elder. as far as that word signifies a spirit. a tradition. an aim. and an ideal. A name is a meaningless symbol if no reality stands behind the symbol. To me. the name Elder is the symbol of a priceless tradition that has been present from the first days of the school's organization and which has ever become more real and recognizable as the years have passed To interpret that spirit or tradition. let me call it the spirit of American youth. hopeful buoyant youth: the golden age of life, when the dawning consciousness of life's responsibility is siowly unfolding: an era of good feeling, when duties are made easy by the gentle control of school routine and teacher guidance: the period of life's richest experiences, in an environ- ment of the worlds treasury of knowledge This spirit Elder has sought to cultivate, to nourish and to perfect. The deeds of every single pupil have been directed toward this highest ideal. in the classroom. on the tcampus. in the home. In word and example, the consecrated lives of its teachers have been spent in making effective the motto of the school. Aitiora . Whether Elder has succeeded in this task. we must let both present and future conduct of its boys and girls prove, The 1926 Elderado has sought to catch this spirit and in serious as well as in light vein. has endeavored to present it to you in the words of the boys and girls themselvest May it through its pages. interpret more fully the meaning of Elder than this single Dage can hope to do.
