reward AS WE attempted to formulate the theme of The 1948 Courtier, two thoughts predominated our minds and hearts. Primarily, we wished to capture all those incidents, big and small, which made our four years at Georgian Court College unique and happy. These pages which we view now during Senior Week make parting from these memorable college days a little harder, yet we know that in future years, as we peruse this volume, they shall contribute much to the fullness of our lives. But youth, we know, cannot content itself with back- ward looksg for us it is far more fitting to look forward! Thus, our future as individuals is the second thought with which we have concerned ourselves. This is the impetus which has spurred us on to make The Courtier more than a mere record of events. We wish to make it a pledge-a pledge to take the principles of Christian living, instilled in us at Georgian Court, into the world. This world, on whose threshold we stand, is not particularly inviting-nevertheless we cannot ignore its very reality. The world's distressful plight is the result of its failure to put first things first., Its attempt to enslave man has been built on its reliance upon force, greed, distrust and deceit. But these evils were first individualistic and thus they must be rectified by individuals before they can be cured collectively. Sincere efforts for establishing truth and virtue must be made before the world brings total destruction upon itself. The individual must be motivated by a sincere desire to attain true knowledge and incorporate in his life the selfless practice of virtue. And so, as we thumb through the pages of our yearbook and recall the four years in which our education consisted in the mental, physical and moral development of our lives, let not our reaction be merely passive and The Courtier's message, only memories. But let each of us with the talents and ideals and vitality of youth, take an active part in estab- lishing principles for true peace through truth and virtue.-
