Dr. Waights G. Henry, Jr. came to Ln Grange College as President only last June. Dr. Henry, himself a former trustee of this institution, in his brief tenure of office has displayed a keen insight into the needs of our college. In spile of his many administrative duties, Dr. Henry is able to share the joys and the problems of each individual student. His personality is a unique combination of leadership, scholarship, and Christian stewardship. He is endowed by Heaven with a special sense of humor, and his boundless energy and enthusiasm contribute much to the tradition of La Grange College. It is with a feeling of pride that we of the QUADRANGLE staff present his message to the Senior Class There is a tide in the affairs of men which, taken at the flood, leads on to fortune. That was true when the forty-niners of the last century drove their mule-packs and prai- rie-schooners toward the setting sun under the cry of Westward Ho! It is true today as the forty-niners of this century explore new territories. Richest rewards come to those who prospect the inner resources of the mind and spirit. The cry of the moder n fronti- ersman is Inward Ho! The forty-niners of a century ago proved again the unfailing truth in the words: Where your treasure is, there is your heart also. Men suffered and sacrificed, did and died for the muck called gold. The new prospectors place heart with treasure, too, where they ' ve heen digging on the hill for four years. Class of ' 49, you ' ve sought and won new knowledge, new vistas, new powers, new virtues, new friends. On every fair and shining coin you ' ve mined and minted here, see that the legend holdly reads: In God We Trust. The years you ' ve spent at La Grange College will prove the most important years of your life. Now Alma Mater has a sacred meaning for you. Here you have marched from girlhood into womanhood, possessed of composure, charm, and power to think and pray your way through. You are an ahle match for events ahead. of 1949. Sincerely, WAIGHTS G. HENRY, JR. 8
