We Salute Thee, Our Alma Mater XYe would speak to thy heart. Buildings, books, ball helds, board- ing clubs-these are the things about thee. Courses, classes, diplomas, degrees-these are thy methods of work. Faculty, trustees, alumni, students, donors, friends-these are thy people, the personnel of the college, and they dwell near thy heart. Thou, thyself, art all of them, fused by that subtle fire called college spirit into one body, and that body ensouled by the sincere quest of truth and dominated by the ideal of service. Thou art a spirit, an ideal, an heavenly thought incarnate in these visible forms! XYe acknowledge thy service to us. Thou hast led us into our five- fold inheritance, Hliterary, scientific, aesthetic, institutional, religiousf' Not only have we been given truth as a possession, but we have been trained in proper methods of research, and imbued with thy spirit of service in utilizing truth for the sake of others. In this possession and quest and use we are finding emancipation. XYe are coming to know the truth and the truth is making us free. ln view of this priceless good, how truly do we call thee, Our Alma Mater-our nourishing Mother! How everlasting is our debt to thee! How profound should be our gratitude! llow warm our love! Happy those on whiom thou hast in years gone by, and now again this commencement, buckled the knightly armor of this human service. Happier those who, going out into the busy life of the world, return to render some direct service to thee, or, denied the joy of returning to thy..memory-laden scenes, send some memorial of college friendships some token of affection to thee. Thou hast been as self-forgetful as a mother, and we, thy children, accustomed to believing thee in everything, have not made allowance for thy dissimulation. But we shall find thee out! All living men and women whom thou hast honored by thy slightest glance shall rouse their latent love for thee and concrete it in a thousand gifts at thy feet. New buildings, and endowments, new ornaments for the campus, memo- rials of thy former teachers and benefactors, new volumes for thy shelves, new appliances for research, lectureships for students and citi- Zeus, works of art for thy walls-these shall be given thee, and not merely because they are needed, not because they will serve the great future, but as a small, yet grateful, expression to Mount Union College, our Alma Mater, assuring her we owe her a debt we can never pay, but a devotion we shall never cease to yield.
