JSefore We JB in y Oil folks may not believe it but in this publication vc have attempted to carry out a theme, and that it may be understood better vvc offer this bit of explanation. Our college days are very dear to us — perhaps they are nearly ideal. One of the chief purposes of our book is to write within its pages a record of personalities, purposes, and past=timcs of the days we have spent here. How= ever, college days arc not an end in themselves: they are also preparation for the days ahead. We believe, all of us, that our futures will be happier, and that we will be betler prepared for our tasks tomorrow because we have been here. What we have done while working and playing within these college walls is practice for what we may be doing when we have left this campus. In our book we have attempted to portray our activities ol today and at the same time their influence on what we will do tomorrow. On the E ' =Libris. as an introduction to this thought, we show i . C. students entering school, coming from country, town, and city: they are eager hopeful; deter= mined ambitious, as they enter. On the other hand, they arc leaving school, still eager, ho peful, and determined, but with maturer minds, increased powers, and more clear=cut ambitions. After two three, or four years under the roof of Manchester Lollegc, listening to her professors and mingling with fellow students, they are better able to make a worthwhile contribution and to add their b;t to the sum total ol society ' s progress. Each of the lour main division pages has been planned to carry out this idea in a similar way. First, we have the schoolroom pictured with the pupils attentively listening to the professor, while above, more harily pictured we see one of these students a professor presiding over his own classroom. This is merely suggestive ol the position ol leadership that he may sometime hold. The main division page of the feature section needs little explanation. Now, Men, a ring on the hand docs not necessarily mean that you ' ll have to do all the dish=washing — but it m ay! In our third main division page the same idea is portrayed. Ol course, our classroom work is an important part of our college training, but there is also great value in the participation in extra-curricular activities. As a sug- gestion of this thought we have shown below in the picture a campus com= mittee meeting: while above, several men, such as a group of bank directors, are shown, grappling with bigger problems that require bcttcr=traincd minds. And now for the last main division! The hardships of the gridiron, the hardwood, or the diamond teach men lessons of persistence, cooperation, moral stamina, and patient determination that fit them to enter upon larger cnter= prises. So tempered, they develop within themselves qualities they will later need — the cool, clear=hcadedncss of an athletic coach, the patient persistence of an inventor, or the keen judgment of a captain of industry.
