THE 1928 DART Dr. Long ' s Message C y ] HEN Charles I ' rohm.in stood on llic dcLk of ihc sinking Lusitani.i and I) J a friend inquired, Are you afraid? he rephed, Why should I be afraid? This is the Great Adventure. Going down with the ship, he soon entered upon that adventure in the country from whose bourne no traveler returns. But all life is an adventure, and not only as we face the end and peer into the unknown. Every day makes its own demands and may furnish its sur- prises. The world is still young and its greatest achievements are in the future, and it may bring adventures far greater and more thrilling than you have dreamed. Life is a commonplace and mere dull routine to him who is not awake; but to the one whose many faculties are trained and enlarged, unlimited possi- bilities await at every turn. No one knows the possibilities in the chance acquaintanceship formed, the choice determined upon, the decision made. Always we are at the parting of the ways, and while the future will reveal what lies in the path which we have chosen, we can never know what was in the other path upon which we turned our back. To enter an adventure and come through not only with a thrill but a trophy, one must be alert, courageous, optimistic, unselfish, and prepared. He who thinks about himself will be looking within and will fail to see the beauties and opportunities along the way. He who is easily discouraged will see mainly the difficulties. The timid soul will always underestimate his own strength. The unprepared man may see many possibilities, but will not understand how to take advantage of them; and only he who is alert can make the most of any adventure because opportunity soon passes. You, members of the Class of 1928, now realize that many pleasant sur- prises have come to you while in Dickinson Seminary which you could not pos- sibly foresee when you entered. Be sure that the same will be true of you in the life which awaits you beyond these sacred halls. It is not well that you should know what the future holds. Such knowledge would rob life of much of its thrill. Be certain of this: if you look at life in a big way, if you enter upon life prepared, if you come in the spirit of adventure, the twentieth cen- tury will be no less fruitful in possibilities than the centuries that have gone before. You have noticed the Greek word alctheia, meaning Truth, on the Sem- inary seal. It is hoped that it has been to you a question, a challenge, and an inspiration: a question, to know its meaning; a challenge, to attain to truth in word and action; an inspiration, The Truth shall make you free. Your friend, John W. Long. iaaJ ;iD s [Page 9]
