Dedication To Dr. William Tyndale Lowrey, President Mississippi College To thee, thou gentlest, kindest, noblest, truest friend — To thee, of whom, when thy life’s open book is kenned, It may in truth be said, “Here is a man Who lives for us and loves us; whose demand Is only that he be allowed to serve, Whose prayer that he from simple truth not swerve” To thee our highest, richest tribute it is meet That we should bring and offer at thy feet. Yet should we find the task beyond our skill To bare our hearts and into words instill The essence of our love, this much we know: If, in the evening’s gentle twilight glow, A friend should come with stealthy step to lay A rose beside thee and then should steal away Unnamed and silent in the gath’ring gloom, He’d know the flower would forever bloom Nor would from out thy memory e’er depart, Because twere not a rose he d give thee, but a heart.

Editorial NITIATIVE! B What is the initiative?” asks Elbert Hubbard. “It is,” he says, ‘ doing the right thing without being told. But next to doing the thing without being told, he continues, “is to do it when you are told once.” Inspired by the spirit of initiative, it was decided by the student body last year that we should have an annual; this was the right thing at the right time. Then a staff was selected, and told to issue it; this, a necessary evil, was the next best thing: “But,” adds the Philistinian, “your pay is not always in proportion.” “Nothing, not even a blade of grass,” says Epictetus, “ever attained to perfection suddenly.” In doing the first thing for the first time, there is always an element of uncertainty, which cannot be removed and which can be minimized only by a vast amount of labor. It has been our utmost endeavor to produce an annual commensurate with the greatness of Mississippi College. The value of the product of our labor we measure by our success in accomplishing this. With much of gratification and some- thing of pride, we present the result, and believe the annual that surpasses it will be an eminent success. Gratitude ? Stacks of it. To those who aided us, to those who encouraged us, to those who counseled us, to the student body as a whole, and to the Faculty, are due it. Our annual, as representing the new era on which we are entering, is now an institution. We have attempted to set a standard, and may it with every succeeding issue be raised higher and higher. 6
