FOREWORD On a medieval manor the sun-light glistened over the great castle tower — impenetrable, majes- tic, supreme. The earth itself seemed submissive to the lordly grandeur of height and power. From the height one could smell the fragrant mellow- ness of ripe fields where workers toiled indus- triously on the rich harvest. The tower was their possession. Sweet memories clung to it, unknown to some. Men drew comfort from its very loftiness and dignity. It meant life to them — the flowing vital radiance of truth, beauty, and goodness. We of the twentieth century have our tower of strength. The unchanging, faithful face of our College Tower holds the record of both memor- able and insignificant days. It overlooks the petty distresses of dark hours and smiles on the achievement of weeks of work and happiness. We gather about it each memorable time of the year — with our class on the first Colors ' Day, in our caps and gowns amid the sadness of farewell and the glory of achievement of Commencement Day. To us it will ever be the symbol of our Alma Mater, of the happiness of our Under- graduate days. It will ever be the symbol of Life itself — the tower of strength, youth, beauty, and knowledge, standing four-square to all the winds that blow. The Class of 1926 presents to -ou this book, the history of a year at M. D. C. centered around Merrill Hall Tower. Page Si
