“SEARCHLIGHT” spreading its intense light-rays over vast areas of earth or sea is of wonderful value. It is a most powerful weapon for good. No darkness is thick enough to withstand its attack. It points out the path of safety, prevents the loss of property, makes possible the saving of life, strikes terror to the heart of the guilty. These remarks as to the physical searchlight will read- ily give you a clue to our choice of a name. Our annual throws a powerful light on many things, scatters the dark- ness of ignorance, shows the path of safety running up the hill of education, and makes evident the necessity for much work if the summit is to be approached. Furthermore, “Searchlight” embodies the ideals of the class of '20, which believes in turning the light of day on every transaction to the end that dishonesty, trickery, hypocrisy and bluff may be exposed—that the oppressed may escape the oppressor before being entwined in his ever- encircling snare. The class of '20 is proud of its friends—proud that the searchlight may be turned upon them without fear of expos- ing anything wrong or unclean. Some prefer darkness to light because of their unwillingness to have their deeds ex- posed ; but not so our friends, upon whom we turn our “Searchlight” with pleasure, and we hope, with profit.
