Foreword eOLLFGE life is a drama — one hour we sit with age to Search the Scriptures and in seriousness follow the Good Coun- sel of our teachers; the next, we dash through the country on a Morning Ride or stop in the quiet coolness of the woods to play with The Pet. Dusk may find us in daisy fields seeking the Prophecy of the Flower, or thoughtfully Dusting Cupid as the shadows fall. The night may see us huddled in a corner telling Ghost Stories or Watching for the Reaper ' s Return. And then as soft sleep gathers around us we feel the protecting arms of our Alma Mater — our Light in the Darkness.

Theme Explanation C T TIMES each and every one of us likes to spend ( -- T- a rainy day in the attic looking through old trunks or over old books. One day a quaint old book attracted my attention and I took it to my grandmother. She ope ned it tenderly and her eager smile told of old memories it brought back. Some member of her family had had bound the frontispieces and attractive embellishments of the old Godey ' s Ladys ' Books with a few engravings here and there from the old Sartain ' s and Peterson ' s Magazines of 185L To me these pictures seemed quaint at first, but as my grandmother bent over them to tell the stories which they illustrated, their beauty grew and I, too. learned to love them — not in the same way she did. but with the respect of youth for the past. Some of these old pictures which found their way into the hearts of the nation through the pages of the old Godey ' s Ladys ' Books, Sartain ' s and Peterson ' s Magazines have found their way into our 1933 ECHO. Maybe some day we will pick up our annual, which other interests have caused us to lay aside, and may it too Echo pleasant memories of the past.
