RESPONSIBILITY WALKS HAND IN HAND WITH CAPACITY AND PDWER HEIDELBERG WVILL NEVER REALIZE what she owes to Dr. and Mrs. Miller. For many years both of them have given their very lives to the amplifica- tion of our Alma Mater. Through their efforts the college has advanced and prospered. Dr. Miller has dreamed dreams for Heidelberg, and many of those dreams have materialized. He has proposed numerous plans, many of which have been accepted. During his presidency the college endowment has reached nearly a million dollars. This represents more than so many dollarsg it represents the work and the reward of an untiring administrator. Dr. and Mrs. Miller's interest in the college has not been limited to Heidelberg as an institution. They take an especial interest in the stu- dents who matriculate within her walls. The president's home is open to the students, who always find a welcome there. The president and his wife are a very vital part of our col- lege. They have given so much to it that alumni and friends naturally and unconsciously think of them, when their thoughts drift back to Heidelberg. Untiring labor, always giving his best is typical of our president. Faith in our capabilities and his helping hand continually stretched forward in brotherly love gained our lasting respect.

AT HEIDELBERG FROM THE ALUMNI TO THE YOUTH OF HEIDELBERG WE, THE ALUMNI, GREET THL: stu- dents of Heidelberg and congratulate those of you who are about to grad- uate. You have been found faithful in supporting the school in all its in- terests and activities, and in furthering the ideals of the institution we call our Alma Mater. Much of the success and fine spirit accom- plished this year has been due to your coop- eration with both fellow students and faculty. As you go out from the life of the campus, may you carry with you the fondest memories, treasured accom- plishments and attachments, and last but by no means least, a spirit of loyalty that will always mean much to you and to your Alma Mater Wherever you go. Students and Alumni are the back- bone of every college. You as students are part of the college for four years, but as Alumni, you will be a part for the rest of your life. Vile trust that the enthusiasm aroused this year will remain with you after you have be- come an Alumnus, for upon it depends the future of Heidelberg. Wfith this high purpose in mind, the Association has been divided into twelve districts over each of which there is a regional representative. Numerous organizations have been formed also in various cities and counties to keep up enthusiasm among the Alumni and to interest prospec- tive students in our Col- lege. The Alumni ap- point four members of the Board of Trustees to help in the operation of Heidelberg. The Alumni Associa- tion fosters also the Alumni Living Endow- ment Fund to provide a source for a number of scholarships given in the spring of each year to outstanding high school seniors. Thus the Association is doing its part and challenges the oncoming graduates to continue doing their part. May the desire for a bigger and better Heidelberg in the years to come be a living bond between us. Russell R. Kmmmes ELEVEI
