tL 1941 At the present time, with the world tormented by suspicion, fear, and hate, it is well to pause and reflect on the spiritual strength of music, our chosen profession. Music offers itself as an expression of love and beauty. Just as the glorious performances of nature exist in all countries (a colorful sunset is just as lovely in one country as in another], so is the appeal of music great in all lands. Whether he be a teacher, performer, or composer, the musician should approach his art with but one idea in mind, sincerity of heart. The small town music teacher who is responsible for a real under- standing and love of good music in his community is just as much of a success as the great performer whose musical attainments are world reknown. May your future be attended by the only real happiness there is: that of service to others, and may your music play an important role in realizing that ideal. Sincerely, Dean of Students
