0 WCRD ONG before mankind had dis- covered the idea of a spectrum nature provided the world with a phenomenon of sunlight and mist particles which man called a rain- bow. In this arrangement he saw the various shades and tints of color separated so that they could be stud- ied comparatively, each on its own merit, and at the same time, the group as a whole. It is to this the original spectrum, that we turn for our theme, that it may symbolize our own attempts to give all the aspects of college life. An ancient tradition suggests that the rainbow symbolized aspiration, and that there lay buried at the end of it a pot of gold, so that he who would show sufficient diligence, could attain that for which he sought. This we have portrayed. At the end of the rainbow we ind the inspiration which motivates the am- bitions of each of us.
