T HE goodness of a man is reflected in the sorrow that is felt at his death, and his greatness in the in- spiration. We have tried, in small measure, to make this book a reflection of Mr. Thompson ' s goodness and greatness. We have attempted to bring out in these pages what he meant to those of us who were with him for three years. We soon discovered that we could look upon him as a friend and go to him for advice in our smallest troubles ; and as the months passed, along with our admiration and respect grew our affection. We cherish now, memories of all the times he stopped to speak with us, of his brief talks in assemblies and of his comments at class meetings. From his life we have learned the great lesson of seeing everything in its true perspective. It was this quality that made him understand us so well, join so wholeheartedly in our pleasures and appreciate our attempts to please him. It was the realization of this quality which made us plan from the beginning to surprise him on our banquet night by dedicating our year book to him. He would have wanted us to continue as we began, under his guidance, to make this book one of which our classmates could be proud ; and we hope that somewhere he is proud of it too. The Editors
