As the city of Holland looks back on 100 years of development, Hope too looks back on its 80 odd years of progress. Both Hope and Holland, although never losing sight of the spiritual founda- tions laid down by the Rev. A. C. Van Raalte, have realized that to be the well-rounded individual, stress must be placed on social and intellectual development as well. This year has been one of transition for Hope. After three years of war-time limitations, we find it admirably meeting the problems of a greatly increased enrollment. But Hope is not content to rest upon past achievements!

whose varied interest have made him a prominent member oi the community; to one who has, in the role of advisor guided many of Hope's students to their future goals; to DR. CLARENCE DE GRAAF we ascribe this statement of George Bernard Shaw and proudly dedicate this MILESTONE of 1947. He has the capacity to combine religion and education, making them unified and integrated. He radiates his own deeply religious philosophy of life throughout the classroom and the campus and it is revealed in every aspect of his life. Through his eyes the student sees deeper and farther into litera- ture and his own life. With this he has endeared himself to all his students and received their deepest respect. He sheds his intellectual cloak for a congenial cape on the college level. Everyone enjoys his perti- nent and ever present sense of humor, which always adds to the pleasure of college functions, of which he is a regular participant. It is because of these and many more attributes, because of gratitude, and appreciation, that we, the class of 1948 dedicate this MILESTONE of 1947 to DR. CLARENCE DE GRAAF 5
