the echo H5a- » aa% Our Chain There are chains which are made of leaden weights. But they bind not voir and me. The links of Our Chain were wrought with love. And we care not to be free. A chain? Yes, strong and powerful, but as slender as the silken rope by which the fierce and voracious wolf, Fenris, was restrained by the gods in Asgard. By magic arts the dark elves manufactured it out of such impalpable materials as the sound of a cat ' s footsteps, a woman ' s beard, the roots of a mountain, the long- ing of the bear, the voice of fishes, and the spittle of birds ; yet when it was fin- ished no strength could avail to break it. The more it was strained the stronger it became. Just so slender and strong appears the chain which binds the heart of each alumnae to Greensboro College, surrounded as it is b .he ties of society, of church, and of home. It, too, is fashioned of impalpable materials : the inspira- tions of the heart of girlhood: the aspirations of young womanhood: the realiza- tion of the opportunities life will offer her. with the responsibilities which always accompany them : and the college training which would enable her to make the most of each opportunity and to bear best each responsibility. Invisible it may be at times, but let her trace back the threads as she will, she will find through all the influence of her college training. To the girls who are now in training, I would turn especially. You, wdio to- morrow will have l eft these college halls as students only to enter another door as alumnae. Do not try to break the chain. Do not attempt to forget it. It cannot be broken. It will not be forgotten. The name Alma Mater is fraught witli meaning. She is in truth your mother and you are the heir of the accumulated wealth and wisdom of her existence, of the life and influence of every teacher, student, and friend of the college. All these have laid their gifts of gold, of intel- lect, of personality, and of character at her feet that she may pass them on to you. As a mother she asks that you make your life strong, noble and sincere, and that you give her the devotion of a heart that is true. Thus, link by link. - ide by side, we stand : students today : alumnae tomorrow : daughters of Greensboro College always. Lucy Belle Totten. Page Tice ity-o
