David Allen Anderson, President A. B., M. A., Ph. D. TEACHERS AS DISCOVERERS Biographies of great men — geniuses and near geniuses in the various fields of human endeavor — give rise to marvel at the worth of such great souls and the value of the contribution that even one such genius may make to human well-being. Teachers are charged with the duty of discovering as well as developing the native capacities of such individuals in the making. This responsibility should be regarded as a serious obligation and at the same time as a priceless opportunity. During the current year some unusual talent has been discovered among our college students and our training school pupils. Graduates from Kent, if faithful to duty, may find in unexpected lives rare abilities and have part in the developing of these abilities. There is no experience in the life of a teacher that provides a finer recompense. Page nineteen

DEAN OF WOMEN THE GREATEST LESSON If one were to ask each 1928 graduate the question, What is the most important lesson to be learned in life? what do you think the answers would be? And then if we should ask each graduate, Where did you learn the greatest lesson of life? I wonder how many would reply that it had been taught in college. ' ashington was once asked by Robert iNIorris what he should like to have as a gift from his friend, the financier of the Revolution. Morris was about to leave for Europe, and wished to bring back a token of friendship to the General. Washington replied that he should highly prize a watch, and further specified that he didn ' t care much about the case, or any ornamentation on the case, but that he did hope the in- side would contain the best Geneva workmanship. What was the thing of most importance? The works, of course. What is the most important lesson we can learn? Is it not that the works do count most in every one of us? What we ourselves are is of vital importance. Do you believe this? Has life proved this to you through your own experience, and the experience of others? Sir Walter gave this same conclusion of his varied experiences. Have you not read how he talked earnestly and affectionately to Lockhardt, his son-in-law, during those last days at Abbotsford; and do you not remember his final message, Lockhardt, be a good man, — nothing else will give you comfort when you come to lie here. What we are. That is what counts in the end. That is why all modern edu- cators are paying so much attention to the leisure hours of students. What we do in our time off shows what we are; and what we do in our time off is making us what we shall be to-morrow. You are going forth. Graduates of 1928, to teach many a lesson, many a lesson well planned and well presented. But the greatest lesson you will ever teach will be yourselj... You will teach it every hour of every day; and for it, you will have made your lesson plans throughout the years. Your Alma Mater rejoices to send forth so many this year who by their lives can teach lessons of real value to the boys and the girls of Ohio. I ' age twenty
