Dr. Richard Eldridge, Associate Professor of Spanish. It is your duty to use your talents. Remember, if you do not use, you will lose. It is reported of Charles Dar- win that when he had finished his scientific work, he settled down to enjoy life. He thought that he would now enjoy poetry, music and art. Sad to say, he soon discovered that these things did not strike a response in his being. Later he said, It is too late now because I have allowed these parts of my being to atrophy. — Zollars. Ms. Marilyn Ross, Assistant Professor of English.

Pinkston, Professor of Music, Chairperson, and Associate Dean of Academic Affairs Emerson said, Hitch your wagon to a star. One can see in those six little words the summary of human achievement, and an everlasting inspiration to the future races of men. From Socrates to Edison, every forward step taken by mankind through revolving centuries, every advance by humanity to- wards the ultimate goal, has been led by some valiant dreamer whose eyes were fixed upon the dawn. Moses, with dying eyes, saw a star that blazed in the Promised Land; the radiance of an eternal star led Three Wise Men to the manger in Bethlehem; Columbus pinned his faith in the dawn of a new day; Kepler, announcing the laws of the unchanging spheres; Newton, watching the apple fall, each looked beyond, and into the future — J.E. Dinger . Y. Jacqueline Rhoades, Professor of Religion; Din Institutional Research.

Rev. George Ellis, Adjunct Professor of Religion. ' ' « +?• ' - l 1 ? f »! Mr. Wayne Robinson, Adjunct Professor of Humanities and Mus Director, Chapel Choir. A RECIPE I leave these words with you. It is only a young man ' s message to young men. The message is simple enough. There ' s nothing impossible about it to any young man, so long as he bears in mind the salient points: First — What success means; the successful doing, the doing well of whatever he does in whatever position he is. Second — The price of success; hard work, patience, and a few sacrifices. Then for his keys — In his religious life: A firm, un- wavering belief in God and in prayer, and a life consis- tent with that belief for himself and for others. In his social life: Moderation. In his marriage: Love. And in business: Thoroughness. Not thoroughness alone in large things or what is apparent to the eye; but thor- oughness in all things; not slighting small things. — Edward Bok You Can Touch Stars Stars have too long been symbols of the unattainable. They should not be so. For although our physical hands cannot reach them, we can touch them in other ways. Let stars stand for those things which are ideal and radiant in life; If we seek sincerely and strive hard enough, it is not impossible to reach them, even though the goals seem distant at the onset. And how often do we touch stars when we find them close by in the shining lives of great souls, in the sparkling universe of humanity around Mr. John Smith, Adjunct Professor of Art
