gOTCWOTd Seconds - minutes - hours - days - weeks - months - years - four years, and our college days are gone. As the years pass we will have a yearning to look backward and reminisce on the incidents that have passed from exist- ence and to remember our college days which are said to be our happiest times. lt is to fulfill this yearning that the Mile- stone has been created, and to pass on from generation to generation to be treasured and cherished. A college yearbook should be the stage upon which the scenes ot our memories and dreams are re-enacted. With this belief in mind, the Milestone for the year 1949 has been born. The strands of humor, pathos and intrigue which till our col- lege years have been woven together to form a plot far sur- passing that of any playwright's pen. As with precious metals, the seemingly monotonous everyday occurrences and hum- drum activities of school life, take on added luster with the passage of time. This Milestone has recorded and documented these experiences so that we may remember, and in remem- bering, learn again. Learn again to live, explore, always learning, and constantly striving to discover the meaning of life, weighing everything carefully, discarding bad, retaining good. The resulting plot forms a pattern of living which we shall follow the rest of our lives. So, as a clock has ticked away the minutes to be recorded in the book of time, the Milestone staff of 1949 has endeavored to catch the minutes in the flight of time and record them for you. As the players of the past pass in revue upon this stage, the pages of our Milestone, may we look back with fondness and thankfulness in our hearts on these memorable years . . .
