-N --Q- we -'-Q M+W 'f21 2' - f' jfiw-Mr' ' The inculcation of a training calculated to withstand the onslaughts and exigencies of a work a day sphere is deemed the desideratum of those who would strive to educate the individual, but when the harmonious development of the faculties is supplemented by the unsolicited touch of distinctiveness so dexterously implanted that the recipient remains unaware of the metamor phosis, there results a product which must, even though unasked, reflect unstinted glory upon the skilled touch of the sculptor hand which fashioned the pliant clay. From the well springs of human gratitude there must necessarily be poured a wealth of homage, a concordance of rejoicing and a soul felt promise of remembrance that will call forth benediction as the gentle hand of our adoptive mother is lifted in farewell. NVe depart with an indelible image deeply graven into our consciousness a beacon light which the marks of the years can only leave undiminished and ever brighter g a panacea when ambition seems remote of realization, a spur to further accomplishment when success has smiled. Vale!,' The triumvirate of years has sped with mercury like swiftness to a golden end which is but a beginning, to a terminus but vaguely adamantine enmeshed and canopied with the perile triumphs of aspiring adolescence, unfet tered by the o-nslaughts of actuality and replete with glittering, unsullied hopes No hand would stay the rolling current of events which marked the trans migration from day to month and month to year e'en though a craven heart not yet surfeited by the glamour of school day life, would falteringly voice a wish to be once more an initiate. No patience hath Time for the recalcitrant humors of the dilatory since it be decreed that the precious moments, the hand maidens of vigorous endeavor, must, unforbidden, plunge from the earthly cycle into the arena of eternity, epitomized by conscious effort or degraded by soul accusing inaction.

The strife within the heart is indeed, bitterg the spurs of ambition bidding the Wayfarer to be on his journey and the caress of seductive memory imploring him to abide, fancy the while roving and fashioning pigments of stardust easy of destruction. The combat can be but short-lived for the very structure of the training which has been administered will impel a righteous decision and disp-arage procrastination, notwithstanding the subtle encroach- ments founded on temporary inaptitude. lt was not necessary for the famous Sir Thomas in giving vent to his Utopian concepts to reck of a predicament involving the dissolution of ties of kinship and it well befitted his brochure to leave this contingency unpresented. VVere he contemporary, recourse might be had to his inventive skill and remedial measures evoked which would serve to dispense with the necessity of this motif or, such failing, cicatrize the wounds of parting. But, unhappily Moore, too, was seeking surcease in idealism, striving to overcome the pressure of practicality in a play of imagery: he would scoff at consummation as well today as yesteryear. W'oven into the fabric of memory and tapestried with genial recollection are the thoughts of the yearling who joyfully should Ave'l a short space ago. In gleeful anticipation he stretched out his arms, beseeching Alma Mater to invest him with a mantle of intellectual well being and to endow him with a perspective akin to that possessed by her champions of the past. The mother heart quietly welcomed him, rejoicing in the prospect thus presented of shaping and molding into yet another intellect the precepts and traditions which had reflected her splendid purpose since the days of the founder. Alive to the pledge of confidence reposed in him, that sturdy son has assiduously trudged along the path of learning strengthened and comforted in moments of stress by the never ceasing stimulant of his mother's watchful and devoted gaze. Black discouragement may for the nonce have wrestled for supremacy while the sombre twin of bitter discontent devitalized his spirit, but only for a brief interval did the combat flourish and a repentant child craved forgiveness at parental knee. ... 1 ---M --,,-,- --A------f 'fA'-'--'- '- A-W'-A-:-ff-e yx wrs:e:1t:'''22::-rrfrrr:reafgggqqgqiq-Qwg x-.uxwm5,522555513:-: ' k Gffi X S v' M MA N- 5- -- ws --sf 3 1522122 ...,.. 19322: ......
