T is a pleasure to accept the kind offer of a page in the Triennial, and in behalf of the alumni to send greetings to the many who love Macalester. XVe feel impelled to greet particularly the splendid company of men who repre- sent Macalester in the National Service. Of their loyalty and their ready response to the Great Call their Alma Mater and all her sons and daughters are justly proud. Nor do we forget that 'tthey also servew who vigorously carry forward the activities of college life and keep the college home-fires burning against the longed-for day of reunion. Possibly a few words as to the importance of a United Macalester will not be inappropriate here. lnevitably, in the writer's mind, those who are most closely related to Macalester constitute several distinct groups: the trustee groupg the faculty groupg the students, the alumni and c1uituates g the large company of loyal friends of the college. lt is unfortunate that in the nature of things these groups seem in part quite out of touch with each other. Those of us who finished our student days some time ago find it very difficult to maintain any real contact with the present life of the college. Indeed our own particular group seems at times almost hopelessly separated, altho we maintain our Alumni Association, which means much-and should mean more. Vlfe have of course a bond of unity in our common affection for Macalester. VVhether of f98 or T08 or 'l8, we all belong to MAC. XVe cannot all know each other, but we do all know her. Our common interest should help each of us to appreciate duly the efforts and sacrifices made by others, to submerge disagree- ments and dislikesg to cultivate a spirit of co-operation wherever co-operation is possible: to seek and make the most of points of contact with other groups who seek the welfare of Macalester. llfe are favored with able new leadership. Let us all renew our determina- tion to make our efforts count for the progress of the college. Those of us who were students in other days may recognize anew that as we received much of Macalester, it is now our privilege to acknowledge our debt by giving to her freely of our means, our thought, and our devoted service. 24

KNl l'SHN, XY.Xl3NliR, , Greetings From Class of '17 T would make us all happy if the class of l',Pl7 could gather into some snug corner and join in greetings to all our Macalester Friends. Instead I must try, while sitting here alone in my harraeks at San Antonio, a lonely Sammy, to express what I feel all my classmates would wish to say, if they could mould their thoughts into one tablet. XYC. who a few months ago were a happy crowd around Dear Old Mac, now are scattered everywhere ln the Service, some in the quiet of civilian life, and others in uniform. XYherey'er we may be, we are proud to have had a chance to answer our Countrys call, just as we were proud to show our loyalty to Macalester. Cut off as we are from the center of your life at Mae, we have few more pleasant times than when the choice bit of news comes to us with the Mac Vileekly. With all our hearts we express our appreciation to those who are responsible for this thoughtfulness. The dreams that we have-they are many-are filled with scenes from XYallace Hall. Shaw Field, and every nook that we learned to love so well, always ending with visions of the time when we can all join hands again in fellowship. Filled with love and loyalty' for our Alma Mater. the menihers of the Class of 1917 join in wishing to all our friends. old and new, some of whom we have never met, the very best of wishes. May she find with you as she has with us a very choice place in your hearts. -CHARLES GERLINGER, President ,l7. 28
