In the fall of his sophomore year Dave decided his talents were needed in a larger insti- tution, so he went over on the hill, but midyears found him back again in our midst. Later, on comparing both schools, Dave concluded that it is not so much the name as the place. Dave, being a chip off the old block, allows no grass to grow beneath his feet.

He is a student in the true sense of the word and a servant of the best interests of his Alma Mater He has served ably as Secretary of the Students' Committee for several years and his literary skill is attested to by his election as Editor of the Comenian. It is indeed rare to find these qualities of the ideal Collegian so well blended and.proportioned , in in these days of over-emphasis on the non- M. essentials of a college career. , , X, just why he should look with disdain on the attainments of his girl friends we do not know. But it is safe to say that the time will come when his assertion, I have no time for girls, will weaken and the Bachelors' Club will lose another member. George's keen analytical mind and his scholarly attainments point to a successful career in pedagogy, where his work will be an inspiration to his students and a source of lasting satisfaction ' to himself.

VVe have spent four years within the embrace of our Alma Mater and have profited greatly by her active interest in our welfare. When we entered the doors of Comenius Hall four years ago we were just green, green Freshmen who were starting on our orientation journey with a very ambitious Sophomore Class at the throttle. We journeyed rather slowly at first. The engineers held the train in check, avoiding many a possible wreck, but to us goes the credit of preventing one wreck when we prevailed upon the Sophomores to let us change the signal lights from green to red. However, we safely arrived at our Hrst year's destination. We had learned the trade meanwhile and limi now we assumed the throttle and guided the Frosh on a rather smooth run. Then, in xt - - . . f 1 ' our junior year, we began to take things up in earnest and to help shape the destinies of f N-1 various college organizations. VVe looked with eagerness to the time when we should be - graduated and time seemed to move too slowly for our ambitions. When we became Seniors, things began to move too speedily for the proverbial dignity to which we had fallen heirs. Time flew and exactions multiplied, we were at the head of the various college organizations and we tried our best to make some lasting record in the annals of each. The pressure of affairs found us in a veritable quandary. It was only then that we realized what it means to 'be standing on the brink of the seething surge, ready at any moment to be pushed into its midst to fight our way to a place on top. 5 tx Now Our ways do part as we go into the world, some as teachers, others as workers my . . . . l in the field of industry, some to pursue the study of medicine, others that of theology. ' We have labored together in the classroom, in the band hall, on the stage, and on the athletic field. We have formed friendships and comradeships and have learned to recog- nize in each man, his worth. Soon, upon graduation, we shall take our paths where our callings lead. W'e shall be forced to make new acquaintances and new contacts. Still by thee we'll be united, Alma Mater, by the ties which we have made under thy fostering care. Remembrances of the pleasures of work and play, the lessons we have N learned, and the spirit which we have imbibed, will inspire us in our endeavors and will K? always keep before us our aim: to carry MORAVIAN out into the world, into whatever 1 Q field we enter. The fellowship and good counsel of our professors will often be remembered r S and this remembrance will keep us in a straight path toward the goal which they have pointed out to us. The intellectual unity to which they have directed us will reveal itself in our every act and deed and thought, helping us to contribute to the world our best. Still be one in heart, since we have all drunk of the same spring, tasted the same food: W6 h21V6 SUIVCH. iii OUP daily contacts to reach social as well as intellectual unity, Puftlflg the group before the individual, promoting the common interests of the College. This is essentially the spirit of Moravian and is also the spirit of the class of '27, T 4- Qt P 41- V fel i ag .
