SENIOR CLASS THE The atmosphere of an institution is the subtle spirit quality which lives in memory and in history long after the material memories have crumbled into dust. College spirit, traditions, and atmosphere are caught by every generation of students. Atmosphere belongs to the college itself. It has been created by the generations of students who have lived and learned and loved in its halls Here the faith of parents in their sons and daughters mingles with the high ambitions and Sturdy efforts of their young. Here is hope tinged with doubt, losing itself in victory or defeat—for many have won but some have lost. Here too is charity—suffering long but kind—in students and faculty alike, for the path of learning is not always light Here are scholarship and artistry and craftsmanship. Here are friends and friendship, youthful aspirations and heroes to emulate. Activities, too—-football games, an autumn long affair; music and a college dance: lessons to do—hard chores at worst, creative acts at best; customs to be acquired.and used; traditions to be respected—the spirit of our J S T. C.. the atmosphere of our college, the medium in which we live. Live in it, acquire it, contribute to it to maintain it. FIRST ROW ABNEY, BYRON C.; Albertville; B.S..
