JJmniifnt’fl Affirms CARSON PINKERTON Longfellow says : “How lK autiful is youth, how Wright it gleams With its illusions, aspirations, dreams Hook of beginnings, story without end Each maid a heroine, each man a friend.” We, the class of ’08, have this youth, with its illusions, aspirations, dreams. Our life is a book of beginnings and whatever may Ik the end we are unable to toll, but since the changes in tin past have Ik cii marvelous, those in the future will not Ik less great. Now, as we have seen through all the past ages, activity has Ikkmi the law of life and development, what may we predict in the future when we consider the intense and various activities of this twentieth century. Thief of all seems to Is the money-getting activity, which controls and moulds the character of two-thirds of the people of the United States. Some of them art so engrossed in the mad scramble for wealth that they have no time for the cultivation ol all that is lM st in human character. But let us lielieve and hope that accumulation of vast wealth will not Ik man’s sole object ami we shall have more time and desire to turn our activities into nobler channels. One of the active factors to d ly which ought to exceed this inordinate desire is the appreciation of knowledge. We value education more than w e have in the past. Now everyone has the chance of obtaining a good education. The accomplishments of the mind have been wonderful, and w ill Ik even more so in the future. 1 wish we could comprehend Professor Swing’s definition of education. He says: “Education is the awakening ol’ the heart; it is life, vitality, the arousing of the spirit, also the power to think and act.” What we need is not formation only, but the awakening of something that moves the sluggish blood in our hearts and makes iis truly alive. We welcome the future, which the indications of the present point out to us and we go to it gladly. May we each strive to make it that grand and glorious time which we all wish it to Ik .
