AUDITORIUM A ND the Auditorium .... what sacred memories are there enshrined . . . .would that we could recall them all ... . those light-hearted and gay .... others so deeply-ingrained as to baffle description .... yet there are many which time cannot erase .... the traditional North Park-Minnehaha fracas as rival orators wax eloquent in their battle of words and wits . . . . the scenes of bitterly fought athletic contests won and lost .... the power of words holding sway as fair young declamists and ambitious orators vie with one another .... there came the daily strains of Praise God from Whom all Blessings Flow” . . . . there were heard impressive chapel addresses . . . . there sacred decisions were rendered for the Life more abundant .... there were we musically inspired by the North Park and Wheaton Male Choruses . . . the stentorian tone of the trumpet, melody of the violin, the music of our own Minnehaha Singers . . .. never can we forget the enthusiasm of the All-School Party .... the interest of Class Nights and Junior-Senior Banquets and the profundity of our parting at Commencement........................ We leave thee, Minnehaha, but never can forget thee! Elcver}

MAIN BUILDING O UR old Main .... could those walls but speak, what talcs of interest they would unfold .... we must leave .... but within those walls remain a host of memories .... these few pages can only attempt to perpetuate those scenes and experiences .... and yet how inadequately .... can we depict in words the reek of hydrogen sulhde emanating from the lab ... . the worried delinquent before the office of the President” .... or the light gaiety of student festivities in the social room? .... dare we try to paint the picture of puzzled algebrains pondering vainly over quadratics .... the unrestrained impatience in the seventh period class room ... or the spring-fever effect on the most diligent of scholars? . . . . can we fail to vividly recall the fun we had on Campus Day .... the drowsiness pervading spring studies .... or noon day rambles along the lovely Mississippi?................................. These and many more race through the reminiscent’s mind .... the pen must try ... . and fail .... to keep pace with the flood of recollections of by-gone days.........................................
