ADMINISTRATION And the Wheels Go 'Round All feminine protests to the contrary, woman's conception of an automobile is a seat, four whizzing wheels, and a contrivance to steer by. The latter is not especially necessary, for passing automobiles can take to the sidewalk, and the pedestrians to the trees. Silently functioning carburetors and timers, like submerged husbands, are things to be ignored, not appreciated. Our conception of Millikin easily becomes that of a huge educational ma- chine of buildings and equipment. silent in its swift conduct of us through a maze of human and scholastic problems. There is no noisy exhaust or whin- ing whir to indicate that somewhere an engine or a dynamo is producing the necessary vital energy. But back of all that is tangibly Millikin, is a sustaining power generated by a small group of men and women whose importance is hidden by the very silence and unvarying effectiveness of their working spirit. The Board of Trustees perpetuate in trust the generosity which Mr. Mil- likin displayed toward Millikin, and by their giving, stimulate the community in its gifts toward Millikin's endowment. The Board of Managers gives in per- sonal interest the stability and soundness of business experience toward the management of Millikin's business affairs. ' President Holden, removed by necessity and not by choice from an intimacy with individual students, is devoted and strenuous in his efforts to secure the endowment which will make possible the vision of a new destiny for Millikin. A general hnancial depression has not blocked him. For one has only to watch our President and his Overland turn a corner to realize that spinning around an obstacle, and shooting in a straight line, is all one with him. Rising above the mere execution of innumerable details, Dean XVald re- tains a freshness of personality and a sincerity of expression that transforms mere respect into affection. Dean Wfalker is in no sense the Police Matron of Aston Hall, but shares her personality with many a student friend. And in every department, in every class, are found leaders who inject into an atmosphere already heavily charged with the scholastic ideal, the elusive but ever present spirit of se1'vice and dedication toward a distinctly Millikin Ideal. In the face of a lowered appropriation and a decreased working force those men who care for our buildings and grounds have silently cooperated to the end that comfort and convenience is afforded the student, and attractiveness meets the stranger who judges MiIlikin's buildings and corridors. And we appreciate the men and women who make the wheels of Millikin go ,1'Ol1I1Cl, CHARLES NIILLS. 1 Eighteen
