'Light comfort you, light gladderi you, light bless you, Light hll your heart and through you lighten the world. The benediction of day-spring, the re- freshing lavers of dawn - prophetic, ex- hilarating in their newness-the relief of star-mist against the murk of night, the shifting sun in autumn elms, the gilded halo of a waxen taper flickering in some forgot- ten niche .... Can We not say that light- light in its dazzling intensity, in its pale shimmering, in its molten glow-brings a solace to the human heart that no other element can afford? Learned minds are pierced with it, joys make one light-hearted, truth and beauty bathe in its unstained rays, and love, laughter, and life are inter- woven by its bonds. Our college days have been signally bright, shining tokens of exuberance unshadowed. Yet, these are but refractions imperfect, unstable, dulled to meet man's clay-limned limita- tions, reflections frail of I-lim who is the Illu- minating Source. But often have we crept near to that Source, for here on our campus, by a dim altar-side, a feeble scarlet flame pointed out to us the Way to the Light of the World. l2l
