FROM THE PRESIDENTS DESK The Etonian of past years has in a pictorial way preserved the history of Elizabethtown College to the satisfaction of our entire college constituency: and the Editor-in-Chief and her staff of this year ' s edition have labored faithfully in presenting scenes and in recounting the activities of the past two years. To the present student body this volume will become priceless after college days are over. For it will then bring back memories of the struggles for victory on the gymnasium floor: of the many incidents in connection with dramatic and musical performances: of trips to conventions, churches, and other colleges: and of associa- tions with members of the various clubs and organizations on College Hill. Each student should desire to own a volume of this graphic representation of his college days. To alumni and friends of the college the Etonian affords a genuine opportunity to see the onward march of the college in its various organizations. It is through this book that many young people first become acquainted with the life of Elizabethtown College, and it is hoped that the Etonian will find a prominent place in the homes and places of business of our alumni and friends. Everyone perusing the p ages of this book will become familiar with the life of the college in a way that is impossible through the Etownian or the college catalogue. The progressive life of the institution is most strikingly manifested by a comparison of the Etonians over a period of years. In these volumes can be seen the beginnings of organizations, the progress they have made, and even the end of some forms of activities. Changes from year to year in administrative policies are also evident as the pages are turned. May this year ' s Etonian prove to be a true portrayal of the life and activities of both student body and faculty, and as the years go by may it bring back to its readers many pleasant recol- lections of the profitable years spent in association with those who became their most intimate friends.
