TTSDX Page Twenty-one .xdcfminiafrafaon To the Editor of the Ciarla: just why it is difficult for me to write a message for your Yearbook I can not explain, unless it is because I am reluctant to realize that your class is approaching the time when you will say the usual undergraduate farewell to Muhlenberg. I wish for all members of 1940 a successful Senior Year in every respect. It will mark for most of you the end of an era and the beginning of a new one. In the next twelve months you will hear a lot about striking out into the world for yourself, and you will be told a great deal about the difficult conditions you will face. For that reason particularly I hope you will use this next year to good advantage, not so much to seep up knowledge of the troubles you are sure to find, but rather to discover the real opportunities open to you as you attempt to establish your own place in this most stimulating of all periods of recorded history. ' The mere passage of time changes the character of the age-old and perpetual struggle which all men must wage to keep their bodies strong, their minds alert and their souls alive, this you will soon appreciate if you haven't learned it in Muhlenberg's classrooms. But it really is a grand world in which to carry on that struggle, and it is crowded with absorbing interests. I believe it is getting better all the time because more and more competent men and women are engaged in the struggle. No college or no business can be organized so skilfully that it will go its way by its own momentum. It must be served by fresh ability and managed by ever-renewed skill or it will be overtaken by disaster. The same thing is true of society in general. That is why, in spite of all the cynical comments you will hear, the world is really waiting for your graduation, for each year it needs the revitalizing influence of fresh minds and fresh energies brought to it by those who enter this struggle from all our colleges and universities. I am confident you will be well equipped to meet what you will find. I hope you will be grateful to Muhlenberg for what she has done for you, and I hope you will make up your minds to come back to us just as frequently as you can arrange to do so. Good luck to you always, and God bless you. Sincerely yours, LEVERING TYSON, P1'e.fidenl cowxg GE .av Mr
