IljI I mm 141 Dr. Trent I love vast libraries; yet there is doubt If one be better with them or without Unless he uses them wisely, and indeed, Knows the high art of what and how to read At learning ' s fountain it is sweet to drink But ' tis nobler privilege to think. And oft, from books apart, the thirsting mind May make the nectar which it cannot find. Tis well to borrow from the good and great Tis wise to learn; tis godlike to create J. G. Saxe

foreword The 1959 Livingstonian is a pictorial accovint of the life and activities of Livingstone College during the academic year of 1958- 59. The yearbook is designed by the Yearbook Staff of 1959 to be a brief reminder of some of the memorable moments spent during our sojourn within these hallowed halls. It would be impossible to catch more than a glimpse of the wonderful experiences enjoyed at Livingstone College for many of our experiences have left such an indelible mark on our lives that they cannot be separately illustrated. The final trumpet has blown and the vicissitudes of our journey are now a part of the inimitable past. However, we hope that in some way our class history and our spirit of oneness will serve to inspire and lift those who are to come this way. It is our hope that this yearbook will illustrate the ideals and philosophy of the fonder and those charged with the perpetuation of Livingston College. Per- haps by leafing through the pages of this book, one can forget the cacophony of personal frustrations and strife and hear the all in- spiring symphony of faith and hope- faith in and hope for our be- loved Livingstone. Inclosing may we leave these few words which so adequately express what we would like to say. ' Tis not the softer things of life Which stimulate man ' s will to strive But bleak adversity and strife Do most keep man ' s will alive O ' er rose-strewn paths the weaklings creep But brave hearts dare to climb the steep. These words embrace the principles held dear by the class of 1959. We hope that this verse will also act as an inspiring force to all who may read this annual. Bernard E. Anderson
