Senior Class Officers n Appreciation THERE comes a time in the life of every graduate when he wonders what it ' s all about. We, of Dickinson Seminary and Junior College, have completed two years of life here. We chose to come back, to go to school for a longer period, putting off the time when we would be bucking the world. Perhaps there was a feeling of inadequacy which prompted us to do a bit more preparing for living. Our days here have been filled with studies, attempts to learn the amassed knowledge on the particular subjects in which we are interested and to interpret it in such a way so as to be of some personal and community use. Discrimina- tion has been necessary in order that the time spent would be used in the most profitable way. It has been necessary to learn how to evaluate material, to come to the point quickly. We have been surprised on discovering that learning brings its own reward in the quiet enrichment of the mind. These days have not only brought study but they have given us free time. Time which means so much to the soul. There have been shining moments of dreaming and planning for the future, given sessions of self-analysis when we endeavored to raze to the ground our Grade C characters and to build grade A ones instead, enchanted moments when we looked around at the beauty and magic of the world. Uncharted and unordered moments are a luxury, but greater returns are the result when wo again take up our work. One of the things most indispensable to our free time has been companion- ship. The art of getting along with other people is vitally associated with our success in living. People bring the greatest joys which this world affords so we can ' t acquire too much understanding, tolerance and love for other human beings. One of the greatest compliments anyone could pay to a friend is to bare his soul and tell him his innermost thoughts and feelings. Daily associa- Harold Sheet. ' ! Treasurer

tion with our friends has brought us into bonds which cannot be broken even though we may be swept into widely separated channels in the future. Failures and accomplishments have been tempered by our friends. Whenever we needed help, and things went wrong, there was compensation in the sympathe tic hand- clasp or the warm smile. Friends can make small, unimportant things important and intensify all our pleasures. They brighten the glow of our good fortune and take away the sharp edge from our sorrow. A real friend can make up for most any blow that the world sends your way. The concerts, lectures, studies, sports, clubs, banquets have been studded by personalities. But now these years are over, leaving us with what. ' ' What have we gained by taking two valuable years from our lives and spending them here. These years have shown us our potentialities, our weaknesses, our strength. In other words, we have a rather clear balance sheet of assets and liabilities. We shouldn ' t let the assets flatter us nor the liabilities frighten us. Both have adaptability. The one acts upon the other in a most stimulating way. If there is a goal in view the two will be agents toward achieving that goal although they may be destructive at times, they will, after a vacation, come back to the job and strive harder for that goal. It took two years at Dickinson to remove the bandages from our eyes and show us that for which we were fitted. We have learned to ascertain values. After blindly struggling along, not knowing what was valuable and what was worthless, the vision of the things of great price stands out boldly like the clear moon when it emerges silently from the cloak of the clouds. To discover the things that really matter to human beings in the turmoil of this world is necessary before we enter any more events in the track meet of life At the close of these two years at this school we fall far short of perfection, but there is a determination and an ambition to make our living a blessing to others. We can see the light: we have the inspiration: may we achieve our goal! Frieda Mitstifer f, ยป ina-q|- ru tX WlXMrrxr K T
