L L E G E m % Once upon a time a man had a dream of an institution where the youth of Mississippi could glean an insight into that by which men scale the heights — education. This institution was to offer to Missis- sippi students unexcelled oppor- tunities. That man was Major Millsaps, and his dream has come true. Millsaps College stands to- day a symbol of culture and pre- sents a program of learning un- hampered by political trends or other factors which tend to hamper freedom of thought. Millsaps is now a great center of learning — in the future it will be even greater.

We see new laces mingled with old ones. There is gay and carefree laughter — textbooks are bar- gained for — campus romances are in the making. A slight tinge of autumn is in the air. Football season is speculated upon — fraternities are seeking pledges — academic pursuits are discussed — but not seriously — yet. Br-r-r-ing . — sounds the gong. Crowds disperse — a hur- ried joke is told — notebooks are gathered up — a pencil is bor- rowed — a short greeting is made to an old friend seen for the first time this year — and then the nine-months trek to classes is begun. Another year of education is under way.
