{ Page six ] EDITORIAL This May The Tower celebrates its fifth birthday! Looking back over its short life we see that the Class of 1928 put into it the optimism of youth;” that in the next year as much as possible of all that Manhattanville stands for” was pressed between its rich red covers; that the third issue contained not only very present history but also something of the earliest history of Manhattanville;” and that last year The Tower was the Year Book of the new Manhattanville.” Now, as we present this book to the Class of ’32, we like to recall to memory those earlier editions of The Tower, for although their words were written with other individuals in mind, their meaning is universally applicable to every true daughter of Manhattanville. Just as the traditions of Manhattanville are still living, glowing things, though the passing years have wrought many changes, so the things written about her remain always true and always applicable, despite the different atmosphere which characterizes each individual year. And it is because we feel that the Class of ’32 has become permeated with this spirit of timelessness in all that concerns their Alma Mater that we can part with them, if not joyfully, yet at least not sorrowfully. We are confident that while Man¬ hattanville lasts and The Tower endures their college days will live contempo¬ raneously with them and not merely linger as memories. In some far-distant May, when The Tower celebrates its fiftieth instead of its fifth birthday, it will still be the same book, warm and alive with the same spirit of timelessness which is the essence of Manhattanville and the all-encompassing bond which draws together all her children, past, present and future, in the quiet shadow of the Copper Tower.
