THE ENCHANTMENT OF DISTANCE How very true it is that distance lends enchantment. So many things are improved by being seen in the distance-as oomplexions, landscapes, painting, and professional attitudes. We all have a oal somewhere nearer in the future, but how strange it is the nearer we come to our goal the less attractive it appears, and when we at last have reached the height, we again feel that through three years of work and study we have only dis- covered how very little we have really accomplished. As children, we thought how great it would be to be grown up and be able to be as our instructors and mothers. To be able to work-have a position, talk about our work-yes, we thought there was not quite another thing better than to be grown up. Now we feel that, though it is a privilege to work, one is happier when youn and carefree- But whence and when, as Emerson said, Tomorrow will be like t y- life wastes itself while we are preparing to live. This constant strivin and longing for something beautiful, useful and pleasant in our lives is indeed hel ul. How much progress would we make, if we did not plan and strive for some goa 7 Our subconscious mind is controlled by our very actions, the nearer we get to the top, for it is here where we have gained our confidence, and the self-confidence, and independence is a virtue in itself, though apparently it is only part of our character. Often this enchantment of distance is a disadvantage to uSewe plan too much for the future, and neglect the present, when after all it is the present that counts, the present that was our future and will be our past. It was given to us to use and we must make the best of it. So in striving we must not overlook the step that is leading to our past. We must have our goal, and must work for it, but let us not forget that it was only through the present that we attained it, and make our present something that in the future we will be proud of. D. S. '28. SENIOR FAREWELL 'Tis a sudden sharp turning they're meeting That's far greater than any before, For from firm, guiding hands they are slipping And must stand at a wide, open door. Farewell to them who undaunted step out With minds firm and strong and sure. They'll quietly struggle to gain their ideals With hearts tender, upright, and pure. Those who follow the wide, open roadway That to some may seem painful and long, Who find sun beneath clouds' dark shadows, Weave their lives like a beautiful song. R. G. '29. 71

We decided to roast it, and we were just about ready to eat it when along came a dog and chewed off its tail. Wernerei'Aha, so that's the tail-end of the fish story. 73
